Another World’s Versatile Crafting Master Chapter 1072

Chapter 1072 - Menacing

There seemed to be no need to guess the whereabouts of the magical crystal, and they reckoned that 80% of them had been unearthed and taken away by the Immortal King. It was said that Tutankhamun and Nefa were hatched by the Immortal King using the magical crystal of the Dragon of Destruction. Anyway, they had already admitted it, and thus Lin Li could not judge if it was true or not.

There had been many legends about the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction in Anril, such as about the Sky Castle that the Immortal King had created with the Dragon of Destruction’s corpse, and the sun in Osric’s mausoleum that Highlord Osric had made using the eyes of the Dragon of Destruction. However, the vast majority of those legends were only conjectures. Although they seemed reasonable, all the legends were exposed once the dragon’s corpse appeared.

Although there was a complete Dragon of Destruction corpse in Lin Li’s Ring of Endless Storm, he felt that he hadn’t seen it in a long time when he saw a moving corpse. Of course, Lin Li didn’t really mind it. There was nothing he could say about a moving dragon corpse.

The dragon corpse in front of him looked like a mountain that was hovering in midair with a pair of wide fleshy wings slowly flapping on its back, causing large waves to form on the surface of the sea. In addition to the large hole in the chest, the dragon corpse still seemed rather intact. It seemed that the Immortal King was not the type to be abused. In fact, the scales on the dragon corpse were unscathed too. Besides, they were still shining with a black light.

However, there was something that confused Lin Li—what exactly the Immortal King wanted to do. How could he have casually tossed the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction around? The dragon corpse in Lin Li’s own ring was cherished by him, yet the Immortal King threw such a precious material away. The difference was just too great.

Of course, perhaps the Immortal King did not just throw it away casually, and was instead leaving the corpse there for some purpose. After all, the dragon’s corpse was sealed below Cage Island. However, given the Immortal King’s abilities, he would probably be able to seal the corpse well, and not let it escape so easily. Did someone else seal it, then? The ancestor of Gilded Kingdom seemed to be a greater suspect. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left the map for his descendants and told them to reinforce the seal.

If that was the case, there would be another problem. It was the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction, which was unique in the world of Anril, and could be considered a priceless treasure. If the Immortal King had left it there, and it was discovered by the ancestor of the Gilded Kingdom, why didn’t he take it away at that time instead of sealing it there? Could it be that sealing it here would bring them more benefits than using the corpse for creating other precious things?

The appearance of the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction planted many doubts in Lin Li’s head. However, the moving dragon corpse obviously did not intend to give Lin Li time to consider those questions. After the dragon corpse flew up, it opened its large mouth without any warning, and spurted a mouthful of dragon breath at Lin Li and the others while roaring at the same time.

Due to the massive size of the Dragon of Destruction, its mouthful of dragon breath shrouded almost half of Cage Island. Fortunately, Lin Li did not let down his guard in the first place. As soon as he saw the dragon corpse opening its mouth, he immediately launched the Space Robe and dodged. However, Elder Zumar was in an unfortunate state because there were still a lot of subordinates whom he had to manage. Seeing the dragon breath swarming towards them, he hurriedly gathered his subordinates before dodging as well.

However, there were still some people from the Gilded Kingdom who didn’t have time to return to Elder Zumar’s side, because they were shocked by the dragon corpse’s power in the beginning. Their defense against the dragon breath was almost useless, and they were turned into ashes by the dragon breath before they could even scream.

Seeing this scene, Elder Zumar was incredibly distressed. They were all elites of the Illuminati who had not suffered any injuries along the way. He hadn’t expected them to die so worthlessly. However, the current situation gave him no room or time for taking pity on the casualties, because he had to consider the living subordinates in his oceanic world.

“President Felic, these people will only be dragging us down by staying here. Help me hold that dragon corpse back, and I’ll send them away immediately.” Elder Zumar could no longer care about his pride as he immediately asked Lin Li for help.

What a joke. If I hold the dragon corpse back, who knows if you might just bring your people along and flee!? Lin Li was not projecting his shortcomings on them; it was a world where interests reigned supreme. In a life-and-death situation as this, it would not be surprising for one to make that choice.

“Elder Zumar, do you think I can hold off this big corpse all by myself? I think you should let someone else help you send those subordinates away while you stay here with me. I think we’d be able to hold it back for a while and buy some time.” Lin Li did not leave them completely in the lurch, and instead made such a different suggestion. No matter what, he wouldn’t let Elder Zumar leave him behind alone.

“Okay, we will follow your arrangement, President Felic.” Elder Zumar was a smart person who immediately figured out what Lin Li was worried about. Although he was very uncomfortable, he didn’t reveal it. After all, when he saw Lin Li evading just now, he knew that Lin Li could leave any time. Hence, he knew that it wouldn’t be wise to anger him at this juncture.

Seeing that Elder Zumar was smart enough to do the right thing, Lin Li did not deliberately make things harder for him. Instead, he called the two pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses, Cardson and Gatana, to take the peak Legendary powerhouses in their teams and escort Elder Zumar’s subordinates away from the battlefield. His main reason for doing so was because the two of them were the weakest among the six pseudo-Sanctuary powerhouses, and he felt that it would be better to let them escort the people of the Gilded Kingdom away before coming back. That would allow them to suffer a smaller impact after they returned.

Although Elder Zumar was not very trusting of the abilities of Cardson and Gatana, he didn’t have a choice now. He could only hand over his subordinates who were protected in his domain for the sake of their safety. After doing so, he did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately flew towards Lin Li, acting as if he was ready to fight alongside him.

However, with another mouthful of dragon breath from the dragon corpse, Lin Li and Elder Zumar immediately went separate ways. After all, that was the dragon breath of the Dragon of Destruction. Even if they were high-level Sanctuary powerhouses, they wouldn’t dare fight hard against it with their own defense.

Perhaps because it had sensed that a large amount of vitality was leaving Cage Island, the dragon corpse simply did not bother about the two seemingly stronger enemies, and instead flapped its wings and dashed towards the fleeing crowd of the Gilded Kingdom like a sharp arrow.

Elder Zumar panicked. He didn’t think that Cardson and Gatana would be strong enough to withstand the attack of the dragon corpse. Besides, during times of an emergency, those two would definitely not hesitate to leave the others and then escape. He couldn’t blame them, either. After all, they were in the Sanctuary-realm, and it was only right for them not to want to risk their lives for ordinary people.

Seeing that the dragon corpse chased after them, Elder Zumar dared not delay further as he hurriedly pointed the staff in his hand forward, and then a variety of water and ice magic spells blasted over. Although the dragon corpse was not slow, a large ice blue patch appeared on the black, shiny back of the dragon corpse.

Elder Zumar’s magic bombardment had indeed attracted the attention of the dragon corpse, but what made people feel alarmed was that the magic spells just now didn’t really cause the slightest damage to the corpse. The ice blue patch on the back of the dragon corpse was shaken off with the movement of the dragon corpse, while the original target location of the magic bombardment was still lustrous.

However, despite not being hurt, the dragon corpse also targeted Elder Zumar. After all, it wasn’t that easy to challenge the might of a wyrm, let alone the corpse of the Dragon of Destruction, which was once one of the five Dragon Aspect. As it roared hoarsely, its wings flapped twice, and its large mountain-like body zoomed towards Elder Zumar in an instant.

The dragon corpse did not spit any dragon breath, either. Instead, it reached its large claws out towards Elder Zumar.

Right from the beginning, Elder Zumar did not neglect his defense, and his body was shrouded by his oceanic Domain World. Despite being a high-level Sanctuary powerhouse, Elder Zumar’s Domain World nonetheless burst like a bubble at the instant that he was scratched by the dragon’s claws which contained terrifying power. The power was far stronger than before. Even though the claws did not contain the slightest amount of Nomological power, they still had the power to destroy the world.

After his Domain World was scratched and destroyed, Elder Zumar couldn’t recover from the shock for a while even though he was a high-level Sanctuary powerhouse. Besides, the massive claws seemed to have the power to cover the sky as they instantly cast a shadow over Elder Zumar.

In the face of this development, Elder Zumar did not panic. Instead, he raised the staff in his hand while chanting the incantation, and as light shot out from the gem at the top of the staff, Elder Zumar’s body crumbled with a loud bang and turned into countless drops of water before it was even moved. At a spot near the dragon corpse, countless water droplets suddenly emerged out of thin air, and immediately converged to form Elder Zumar’s body.

However, as soon as a bit of Elder Zumar’s true appearance was revealed, the dragon corpse suddenly turned around and whipped Elder Zumar with a whistling sound with its tail which seemed powerful enough to flatten a mountain peak. As soon as Elder Zumar managed to cast an ice wall, the dragon’s tail already swept the ice wall and broke it before landing hard on Elder Zumar’s body.

With a loud sound, Elder Zumar’s body was sent flying backwards, and his magic robe became tattered.

After whipping Elder Zumar, the dragon corpse began chasing him nonstop. At this moment, Elder Zumar was almost too powerless to retaliate, and he couldn’t defend, either. It was almost right to say that he was waiting to die. Lin Li knew that he would be in trouble if he didn’t take action. If he were the only one left, he definitely wouldn’t be able to deal with the dragon corpse.

Hence, Lin Li pointed the Helios’ Scepter forward, and a large Light and Darkness Sword instantly condensed. As soon as it did, it ruthlessly slashed at the massive body of the dragon corpse. The power of the Light and Darkness Sword was no longer comparable to Lin Li’s World Sword’s, but its power was still amazing.

The huge dragon corpse actually stumbled because of the sword. Of course, the scales of the dragon corpse were still perfectly intact after being slashed by the sword, but the incredibly solid Light and Darkness Sword actually shattered immediately because of the impact.

However, no matter what, Elder Zumar managed to escape a disaster with Lin Li’s help. At Zumar’s command, the muzzles of the cannons on the alchemical ships that still remained in the waters around Cage Island were pointed at the sky, and rays of cannon light darted out.

The dragon corpse was simply too massive, so much so that the alchemical ships below need not aim too carefully at the target, and all they had to do was to aim in the right direction. The light of the mana cannons blasted at the dragon corpse.

The light caused auras to form on the body of the dragon corpse, and the mana cannons that killed countless sea beasts and could even penetrate mountain peaks were actually useless when it came to attacking the corpse. There was not a single trace of injury on the neatly arranged dragon scales, and it was as if the light of the mana cannons were just used for illumination.

The dragon corpse roared as it seemed to have been annoyed by the insignificant nobodies at the bottom.

The alchemical battleships of the Gilded Kingdom might be the toughest battleships in Anril, but their movements were relatively slower on sea. Seeing the dragon breath crash down, the battleships that were about to be engulfed by it immediately put up defensive magic shields while accelerating in another direction in a bid to rush out of the range covered by the dragon breath.

However, there were still two battleships that did not escape, and were enveloped by the dragon breath. The magical shields of the two battleships immediately burst like bubbles. Immediately afterwards, they sunk to the bottom of the sea, and a large depression formed in the surface of the sea after the dragon breath landed and eroded it. Water surged out of the sea, forming a massive vortex.

When Elder Zumar saw that scene, he was full of regret. The value of the two alchemical battleships was on par with that of those which had left. Although the Gilded Kingdom was known as the country of alchemical civilization, and rose to fame in Anril because of their alchemical battleships, building a battleship was not easy. Had he known how fragile the alchemical battleships were when faced with the dragon corpse, Elder Zumar would have never let them stay there.
