Black Gold City.

Perhaps it could already be renamed Skeleton Tower.

After many days of cultivation, the entire Black Gold City had been connected together by white or withered yellow bones, becoming the base of the towering bone tower.

At the top of the tower, the Death Lord sat motionless on his throne, like a statue.

Suddenly, within his pitch-black faceplate, a sinister ghostly flame ignited.

The Death Lord’s eerie and terrifying voice echoed within the empty Bone Hall.

“Landry, have you failed ”

The Death Lord shook his head slightly and murmured, “It seems that Silver Dragon is more difficult to deal with than I thought ”

However, he quickly stood up from the throne and coldly said, “For now, I will let you run rampant for a while. Once I have dealt with this matter, it will be your turn.”

As soon as his words fell, there came a crisp knock at the door from outside the Bone Hall.

With the Death Lord’s permission, a Lich slowly and eerily floated in from outside.

This was the Lich Catherine who had built the previous portal for the Death Lord. She seemed to have no significant changes since then.

Recently, she had been working on a task assigned by the Death Lord.

Due to the severe lack of corpses and creatures in the Dragon Bone Wasteland that could be converted, the Death Lord asked her to find a solution.

Although she was initially at a loss, she eventually found an ideal location.

In the Dragon Bone Wasteland, aside from many city-states that worshipped freedom and trade, there lived numerous monster lords.

Among them, the most powerful were the Blue Dragons.

Since ancient times, the Dragon Bone Wasteland has been one of the favorite habitats of the Blue Dragons on the continent.

The Soaring Dragon Legion’s cleanup campaign in the Dragon Bone Wasteland mostly ignored these Blue Dragons, only warning their subordinates at most.

Some Blue Dragons that saw the reality led their subordinates, took all their belongings, and quickly moved to other places to avoid trouble temporarily.

However, there were always one or two stubborn fools who stayed in the Dragon Bone Wasteland and refused to move.

In their view, the Undead were nothing more than lowly beings and could not pose any threat to the noble and powerful dragons.

Typically, such thoughts belonged to a fool who hadn’t seen the world, at most reaching the level of an adult dragon.

Frankly, adult Blue Dragons were powerful. However, for the Death Lord and his elite Undead, as long as they made an effort, it wasn’t difficult to deal with them.

Previously, the bones used for Undead conversion in Black Gold City were mostly provided by these stubborn Blue Dragons and their subordinates.

All these matters were handled by Catherine.

While conducting the Undead conversion ceremony for the second adult Blue Dragon, she acquired shocking news by reading its soul.

In a certain area of the Dragon Bone Wasteland, a dragon tomb was hidden.

Many dragons had been buried there for a long time, with a complete variety of species.

The name of this desert came from this fact, but nowadays, few people knew about it other than the Blue Dragons living here.

Upon learning this news, Catherine excitedly led a team to the location herself.

Unfortunately, there were still several powerful Dragon Soul Guardians present.

They were powerful, with astonishing magical attainments, and Catherine and her Undead subordinates couldn’t deal with them.

So, she reported this matter to the Death Lord, who showed great interest in it.

Now, she would lead the Death Lord to the dragon tomb.

And the Death Lord went alone. Except for Catherine, who was there as a guide, he didn’t even bring a single skeleton frame, let alone an Undead army or personal guards.

All he carried was his terrifying heavy hammer.

Truth be told, even Catherine felt shocked upon seeing the Death Lord’s unique weapon.

She couldn’t understand why such a powerful Lich would carry such an unconventional heavy weapon.

Additionally, she hadn’t seen the Death Lord in action for a long time.

Thus, she was somewhat excited and looking forward to this mission.

The location of the dragon tomb was extremely remote, and the Death Lord had never been a patient traveler.

Knowing this, Catherine considerately prepared a portal that would greatly reduce travel time for the Death Lord.

Only a wealthy person like the Death Lord would build such a portal that would only be used once.

After several spatial distortions and turns, Catherine led the Death Lord to a dark underground cave.

Although the light was dim here, the surrounding space was astonishingly large.

Upon arriving, the Death Lord looked around and soon discovered an ancient, large-scale Magic Array next to the portal beneath his feet.

Beyond that, there was nothing else.

It seemed that this was the only way for the dead dragons to come to this tomb.

After studying the Magic Array for a while, the Death Lord quickly understood its operational mode.

This Magic Array was usually inactive. For it to be activated, just a single pure dragon breath was needed, regardless of power.

This clever design could repel most of those who harbored malicious intentions towards the dragon tomb.

Unfortunately for the Dragon Soul Guardians, Catherine had acquired the breath of two Blue Dragons, which made it no trouble for her. She even marked the coordinates of the location to create a large sword portal.

Without needing any further explanation from Catherine, the Death Lord, carrying his heavy hammer, proceeded towards the interior of the dragon tomb.

As for Catherine, she cautiously followed behind the Death Lord.

Although her strength was considerable, being a Legend at the very least, she couldn’t help but worry about the powerful Dragon Soul Guardians, fearing that a moment of carelessness could risk her life.

Before the Death Lord could walk much further, a crimson Magic Array appeared beneath his feet.

“Boom!”

First came a massive explosion, followed by a ball of scorching flames that enveloped the Death Lord completely.

The blazing fire swirled around the Death Lord, creating a horrifying scene.

“Lowly Undead, you dare to desecrate the sacred dragon tomb again! The fire shall purify your filthy bodies and souls!”

An elderly, dignified voice echoed around Death Lord. As the flames burned even brighter, a disdainful smile emerged on Catherine’s face behind him.
