Chapter 708: Chapter 700: Big Figures who Like the Five Colored Dragons Chapter 708: Chapter 700: Big Figures who Like the Five Colored Dragons “Your Majesty, this is all a misunderstanding.” Seeing his hard-caught black dragon speak fondly to Muria, the red-clothed Grand Archbishop who brought the black dragon had an embarrassed and nervous expression on his face. They were unaware of the close intimacy between the Five Colored Dragons and Muria, which was much different from what they had anticipated.

After all, this astonishing figure’s bloodline couldn’t possibly maintain a friendly relationship with the Five Colored Dragons. Therefore, their attitude towards these dragons wasn’t particularly good, just ensuring they were alive was enough.

“Bullshit misunderstanding, Black Stone, they’ve all been killed!” The Five Colored Dragons roared in grief and anger, showing how furious they were.

“This…” Muria also showed a hint of difficulty on his face upon seeing this. After all, these church members were ultimately helping him, and the Five Colored Dragons were his subordinates, and their minions were indeed his minions too.

“Since we have caused damage to Your Majesty’s minions, then we should compensate for it.” The red-clothed Grand Archbishop, beads of cold sweat on his forehead, suggested a reasonable solution that any dragon would accept.

“Compensation?” The six Five Colored Dragons who were originally seeking comfort from Muria immediately glared at the red-clothed Grand Archbishop. Their eyes sparkled, revealing their true dragon nature. After all, their loyal subordinates were already dead, and consideration for the living demanded compensation!

“I can compensate for all the losses that the church has caused you.” The red-clothed Grand Archbishop said magnanimously, composed even in the face of a recent life-threatening crisis.

“Agreed!”

…

While the red-clothed Grand Archbishop came with dragons and discussed compensation with Muria, chaos ensued outside Silapus because of the church’s successful entry into Xena Pus.

“Damn it, how did they get in there? Why can they get in, but we can’t?” On a floating ship outside the foggy labyrinth of Xena Pus, an elegantly dressed middle-aged man spoke with resentment.

According to magic detection, many powerful organizations already knew about the oddities in this airspace. The fog in front of him was just a cover, hiding a whole different world, but he repeatedly was denied entry, they never gave him any respect.

He didn’t mind since it wasn’t only him, everyone was denied entry. But now that the privileged were allowed in, he found it unacceptable. Still, as an envoy, he had to follow the wishes of the power behind him and stay put.

Other than the limited physical comforts, everything else was fine. However, the middle-aged man did not forget his mission: to visit the master of this mysterious airspace. The twelve cities that fell from the sky were incredibly surprising!

“They’re from the Church, they have more clout than us!” A curvaceous, fiery woman, who was standing nearby on another floating ship, answered with a chuckle, appearing unfazed. However, a closer observation would reveal the displeasure in her eyes.

“Is the Church really that great? Their power on our continent is not any stronger than ours. Why do they get preferential treatment?” Another floating ship floated over, with people on it complaining too.

“There’s nothing to complain about! This mysterious airspace wasn’t originally ours, it came from somewhere else. Being acquainted with the Church is quite normal.” More floating ships joined in, and the leading envoy joined the discussion.

“I rather think not because of the Church, but because they went there with something we don’t have.”

“What’s different?” The elegantly dressed middle-aged man who started the complaints asked in surprise.

“Didn’t you see what the Church’s floating ship had as it went in?” An old man with a kind face asked with a smile. He had seen it clearly when the church’s envoy corps entered Xena Pus.

“What’s inside?” The seductive lady asked. Due to the angle, she couldn’t see anything special about the church’s floating ship. She only knew that someone had gone in.

“I saw six Five Colored Dragons.”

“Five Colored Dragons?” A group of envoys showed contemplative expressions, being people who have mingled within the kingdom’s feudal system, they knew many necessary “common knowledge”.

If you want to visit someone in a high position and had no previous connections, you would need to cater to their preferences. Thus only they could build relationships smoothly.

“I think the Church might know what the master of this mysterious airspace likes, and catered to it for the visit. If the Church was so influential, they wouldn’t have waited until now to visit.”

“Do you mean that the master of this unknown空域likes Five Colored Dragons?”

“Isn’t it a very normal thing? Many powerful mages love to enslave giant dragons. Perhaps the high-ranking individual residing inside is a mage who has a penchant for dragons.”

“These are just our speculations.”

“Why not give it a try? We will each dispatch some manpower to catch six dragons to test whether we can visit this mysterious lord of the airspace via these giant dragons.”

“Let’s give it a try then!”

…

While the Obistro Subcontinent was in continuous turmoil and the majority of power’s eyes were focused on Xena Pus, below the land of the Obistro continent filled with endless death qi, following the last undead disaster, the death qi began to accumulate again. The dense death qi liquefied and condensed into rivers of death qi deep within the earth.

The rivers of death qi crisscrossed beneath the earth, and undead spirits floated in it one after another. Each one emitting an aura no weaker than gold rank. These undead spirits were born of the river of death qi. When the disaster breaks out, these spirits would awaken and transform into terrifying slaughter machines.

On this day, one powerful undead after another descended from various locations of the subcontinent to the River of Death Qi beneath their feet. They started to stimulate the death qi, actively infusing it into themselves. This action caused the river of death Qi to begin boiling, and one powerful undead after another awaken with the agitated river water.

“Quiet, it’s not the time for you to wake up yet!” A lich, wrapped all over in yellow-tinted bandages, cackled wickedly. With a wave of his hand, he suppressed the restless undead.

Such scenes were taking place above the rivers of death qi deep under the continent; these powerful undead spirits were not only actively infusing death qi but also suppressing other undead spirits wanting to awaken.

And as these powerful beings disturbs the river of death qi, all the undead dungeons on the continent experienced abnormalities. This was a precursor to the outbreak of disaster. Therefore, everything starts to become extraordinary.

Inside a dungeon 300 meters below the ground:
“clang!” A burly heavily armored warrior struck his sword onto a skeleton warrior. According to his experience, this skeleton warrior should split in two under his heavy sword. But now, when his sword struck the skeleton, it merely cut off two ribs, and when he pulled out his sword, these two ribs healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“How can this be? Has it leveled up?” The warrior looked at the result of his blow with disbelief. Not only did he fail to kill the skeleton, but it also seemed to have leveled up after his strike. What could be more frustrating than this?

Soon after that, a ferocious look appeared on the warrior’s face. That wasn’t his full strength.

Qi Raising Slash!

The warrior shouted, and a crescent-moon-shaped sword light flew out with his strike, instantly splitting the skeleton warrior in half.

At this moment, a hint of stiff arrogance appeared on the warrior’s face, “Just a mere skeleton, even if it has leveled up, it’s no match for me.”

Although the warrior was smiling, he forced it. He felt like he had just struck a steel plate. In his memory, this was his first encounter with a skeleton of such hardness. If all the skeletons underground were this strong, then there was no point in fighting.

“How is that possible?” The warrior who was just pleased with himself looked dumbfounded. He watched as the pile of bones from the skeleton he’d just shattered began to piece together. The soul fire that had exploded under his sword was regrouping. Then the soul fire landed on the shattered skeleton, and an attractive force appeared. A brand new skeleton warrior instantly appeared in front of the warrior.

This skeleton warrior not only revived but also visibly became bulkier and stronger at a pace visible to the naked eye. Bone spikes grew from its skeleton, interconnecting to form a bone plate armor. A visible shadow of death qi lingered around it.

“Something’s wrong; we need to retreat quickly!” The captain of the adventurer group, who had come to collect materials in the Undead Dungeon, sensed danger. But it was too late. Skeleton undead crawled out of the dungeon, then, before their desperate eyes, blocked all exits and overwhelmed them.

Similar scenes were happening everywhere in the Undead Dungeon. The undead, who could have been defeated easily, had bodies as tough as steel, and their recovery reached an unimaginable extent.

Even if their bodies were shattered, they could revive rapidly as long as their soul fire had not been completely extinguished. This recovery ability was simply despair-inducing for ordinary adventurers and warriors of bronze and silver ranks.

Under this sudden change, adventurers in the Undead Vault were killed one after another. Only a handful of adventurer groups managed to return to their cities. Those who died in the vault were quickly transformed into new undead and, under the push of the death qi, began instinctively advancing toward the surface…
