The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 801
"According to the deduction of our predecessors, this is the backbone of an alternative dragon," said Helian Xunxue.
The backbone, whether for humans or Demonic Beasts, was a very important bone. It's even more important than the skull. If this was the backbone of the dragon, then no wonder he was able to connect heaven and earth.
"The power of the dragon is gone." Ling Han pressed his hand against the "colossal tree". His bone pattern was pale white, and although it had experienced who knew how many millennia, it was unharmed. However, there was no longer a small piece of elite aura circulating within.
Otherwise, if such an important part of the backbone randomly released a piece of aura, it was likely that any ordinary cultivator in the ninth layer of the Shattering Void Tier would be suppressed in such a way that his legs would become weak.
“Do not be careless. Although this place does not have dragon power, as long as you rise to a certain level, there will be an intimidating effect. Moreover, the higher you step, this intimidation will be even more frightening, ”Helian Xun Xue warned.
(Boxno. Co m) As if giving a demonstration for his words, peng, they saw someone fall from above. He landed solidly, and instantly shattered into pieces. He was a member of the Sea Race, but not one of the True Dragon Bloodline. Instead, he was the prodigy of the Willow Octopus Race. There was not a single bone in his entire body, and his race was known to be strong and had strong recovery abilities. But he lost his life here.
"Aah!" Someone else fell, but this time, he did not die. However, at least half of all the bones in his body were still shattered, and blood flowed from him like pillars. Before long, his blood had dyed the ground beneath him red.
He struggled to get up, and forcefully used his Original Strength to condense his broken bones. He took out a few alchemy pills and swallowed them before he sat down in a cross-legged position and began to refine the medicinal effects to heal his wounds.
This bone tree is too big. There will probably be people falling from it at all times, and they just haven't seen them because of their limited field of vision.
"Do you want to enter the Black Tower?" Ling Han asked Helian Xun Xue.
"Heng, are you looking down on me?" Helian Xun Xue asked unhappily. After all, he was a bright pearl from the north sea, and his current battle prowess might even be superior to Ling Han.
Ling Han raised his hand with a smile, and said, “Ai, you can't say good from bad. I only care about you, so I'd like to give you a chance to rest. ”
"No need!" Helian Xun Xue immediately started climbing the bone tree. His speed was extremely fast, and in a short period of time, he had reached a height of over three hundred meters. However, soon, his speed slowed down.
"Hu Niu, let's go too."
"Ein!" Hu Niu nodded crisply, and along with Ling Han, started climbing.
As expected, when they had reached around three hundred meters, there was a slight pressure coming out from the bone tree. Since no one could fly here, and they could only climb trees, they had to hold onto branches firmly, and were forced to withstand this kind of pressure at all times.
Facing the pressure at this level, Ling Han and Hu Niu naturally paid no heed to it. The two of them turned into lightning, and quickly climbed up the tree trunk as fast as they had lightning.
Helian Xun Xue was not slow either. Not only did he study the Ninth Heaven Lightning, but he himself was extremely genius, and the height of his talent was in no way inferior to Xu Xiu Ran and his group.
More than two hours later, they had passed through many people on their way. Some are still fine, and just concentrate on climbing trees. However, there were some who actually attempted to attack Ling Han and the others. Then, Ling Han naturally had no reservations, and moved without mercy. He shook these people who could not control their hands down to the tree, and it would be fate whether they lived or died.
Ling Han and the others became slower and slower. Now, they had already climbed two-thirds of the tree, and the dragon's strength had become increasingly stronger, which even caused Ling Han and Helian Xun Xue to sweat.
Ling Han thought that if one were to lay down an attack at the entrance to the third floor, the effect would be incredible, and the chances of falling for the trap might be more than ninety percent. However, this backbone was truly too large, so who knew where the target would rise from. So, if one wanted to make an ambush, they would at least need several thousand people to form a circle.
Moreover, every single one of them should possess battle prowess at the peak of the Heaven Tier, or still not be able to do anything against Ling Han.
However, Hu Niu was completely unaffected by the power of the dragon, and with this scout, who could ambush them successfully?
Their speed became increasingly slow, but after two hours, the three of them still reached the peak of the bone tree and entered the third floor of the Ghost Dragon Cave.
The environment here is different again. All around them, they were surrounded by bare mountain rocks, but each stone was a deep red – from afar, it looked like a land of blood, but also like a sea of burning fire.
Crimson is the main color tone of this place, and besides, there are no other colors here.
"The Dragon Blood Grass will also grow in the rock crevices here," Helian Xun Xue said. Although they had gathered over a hundred, and furthermore, also had an abundant supply of tree hearts from the Blood Locust Tree Men, this kind of treasure would never be too much.
Ling Han nodded. As their trees continued on their way, they continued to search, but did not waste too much time on their path. After all, the main focus of this journey was True Dragon's Tooth. This is the most precious treasure. If they wasted too much time here, when the closing time of the Ghost Dragon Cave arrived, they would be expelled. Then if they wanted to enter again, it would be something for five hundred years later.
Their luck was not too bad, and they had a sizable harvest in their path. This naturally was because Ling Han had used the Eye of Truth, and was able to see through everything — big or small — clearly, which naturally contributed greatly.
This way, their speed would definitely be affected, but the Ghost Dragon Cave would open for at least half a month at a time. And they only spent five days here now, so no matter what, they still had about ten more days.
"There's a big man in front!" Ling Han withdrew his gaze, and rubbed his eyes. He had been using the Eye of Truth continuously these few days, which made his eyes feel somewhat sore, which in turn was quite uncomfortable.
"Could it be a Devil Ape?" Helian Xun Xue muttered to herself. When he saw Ling Han's question expression, he explained, The “Monster on the third floor mostly looks like some kind of ape or monkey. However, based on the conclusion, these may be alternative dragon fleas, and formed after absorbing dragon blood. ”
Ling Han could not help but use a strange expression as he asked, "A very powerful being like an alternative dragon will still have fleas?"
“When it was in its prime, it certainly wasn't. But in his old age, as life dwindles, he may not even be able to move a finger. At that time, fleas will be a normal thing, ” explained Helian Xun Xue.
The Dragon Race had a very long lifespan, and even in its old age, with only one breath left, it might only really die after eight to ten years. Then, it is not strange if the parasite eats it in that period. Just like the Bloodworms on the first floor, they might as well be strange mutations that give life in the twilight and as its life declines.
“The lice absorb dragon blood, and can actually grow to a height of about thirty meters. It was really amazing, ” Ling Han said, smiling. “However, this big flea sits there motionlessly as if it were guarding some sort of treasure. Who knows, there might be another Dragon Blood Grass. ”
"Come, let's go and see it."
They walked on, and within a short period of time, they saw that there was indeed a huge red monster crouching in front of them. It was monkey-shaped, but had six limbs, so indeed, it was still more like a flea. And under these fleas, there was a large, blood-colored stone, which had a much deeper color than the other stones.
Helian Xun Xue was a little excited as she asked, "Could it be the True Dragon Bloodstone?"
