Chapter 558: Chapter 404: The Wondrous Dragon Mirage_2
“Yes, my Lord!”
Upon hearing this, all subordinates clasped their fists and began to move.
At this time, Leo Ray, who was in the middle of the team, noticed something.
Under his feet, the small Sky Island had unknowingly turned into a winding and twisting wooden pathway.
Looking ahead, the wooden pathway seemed to go straight to the sky, with countless branching paths and cliffs along the way, making it impossible to see its end.
At the same time, above and below the pathway where everyone was, other complex wooden pathways were already interwoven.
These intertwined paths formed a giant spider web that completely enveloped the sky.
Noticing this, Leo Ray looked down at the ground thousands of feet below. freewebnøvel.coɱ
The distant ground still had green mountains and rivers constantly retreating beneath them.
However, the bright sunlight overhead cast the shadows of the pathways in the sky, completely projecting them onto the ground.
The sight seemed to forcibly combine two unrelated worlds, creating an indescribable sense of epicness and oppressiveness in the abruptness.
“As expected from an Illusion Realm materialized from a dream, such a fantastical scene can only appear in dreams,” Leo Ray said thoughtfully, as he followed Joshua Bingaman and Abigail’s guidance and continued to move forward.
Next, during their journey, Leo Ray noticed that the surrounding scenery had undergone many changes.
First, the originally boundless clear sky changed, alternating between thunderstorms, torrential rain, and snowstorms.
Whether it was the pouring raindrops or the intricate snowflakes, the sensation of them falling on one’s body was indistinguishable from reality.
However, as long as the energy inside him was channeled to cover his entire body, the illusions could be blocked.
The contrast between the two feelings was nothing short of magical.
Secondly, the scenery on the ground also began to change dramatically.
From the initial green mountains and rivers, the landscape shifted to snowy mountains, tiny cities, brutal battlefields, and even areas filled with molten lava and fierce flames, among others.
Last but not least, the wooden path where Leo Ray and his companions were walking retained its original appearance, but its structure underwent a massive change, from the initial spider web-like structure to a more tangled and chaotic ball of yarn-like formation.
Of course, along the way, Leo Ray also spotted several guards and servants sprawled on the ground, all in the same unconscious state as those at the entrance of the castle earlier.
Some servants had trays and fruits scattered around them, while the guards’ weapons remained sheathed.
This showed that the Dragon Mirage had occurred very suddenly.
“My Lord, if we pass through this castle hall, we will reach the entrance to the Underground Firsdale Territory!” Joshua Bingaman’s crisp voice reached Leo Ray’s ears soon after.
“Understood, be cautious.” Nodding slightly, Leo Ray replied.
A moment later, a burning wooden gate appeared before Leo Ray at the end of the wooden pathway.
At this point, one could clearly observe the gate.
Above the blazing door were colorful, shimmering four-leaf clovers, gradually being blackened by the flames along with the wood.
However, when the wooden gate was on the verge of being completely consumed by the fire, new vitality would burst forth, restoring it to its original color.
The burned clovers would regenerate as well, shining brightly once more, and the cycle continued.
Meanwhile, turbulent waves of scorching heat made it nearly impossible to approach.
“This is truly a dream realm, it’s getting more and more interesting.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and once again summoned his inner energy to its fullest extent.
As a result, the intense flames on the wooden gate dispersed, and the outline of a thick metal door began to appear before him.
“Is this the true form of the gate?”With a slight nod, Leo Ray took a step forward and said to his subordinates, “Alright, let’s continue moving.”
So, after Taylor forcibly broke the metal door, Leo Ray and his company stepped into the fog-filled gate.
Just as they entered the new space and the fog dispersed,
The marvelous sight before them left everyone’s expressions astonished once again.
This time, what caught Leo Ray and his party’s eyes was a crystal clear mountain range and forest.
Upon closer observation, everything here, whether it be the lush green trees or the endless blue mountains,
Was made of dazzling, multicolored crystals – even the azure sky and the earthy ground were the same.
For a moment, Leo Ray felt as if he had entered an abstract painting, with all the brilliance and glare, making it almost impossible to open his eyes.
Subordinates around him were also struck with awe, their faces showing amazement at the sight before them.
“Long ago, I heard that the Dragon Clan loved shiny things. So, turning everything in the dream into one’s favorite thing seems to make sense. In any case, now we can be sure that the dragon that was sealed is having a pleasant dream.”
With this realization, Leo Ray couldn’t help but smirk, then nodded to Joshua Bingaman and Abigail beside him, signaling for them to continue leading the way.
So they passed through a winding crystal mountain road that led ever downward.
At the foot of the crystal-clear mountain, a new gate appeared before the company.
This was a gate made of red crystals, burning ferociously.
However, the situation was completely different from the wooden gate earlier.
Around the burning red crystal gate, various colored crystals grew continuously, seemingly trying to completely engulf the gate.
But whenever the colorful crystals were about to cover the red crystal gate completely,
The fierce flames would intensify, burning the rest of the crystals to ashes.
“The previous two gates had the element of fire, and they keep burning without ever extinguishing. As expected, the one sealed underground is a Red Dragon. For Red Dragons, never-ending flames are undoubtedly their totem.”
Just as Leo Ray thought of this,
On the other side, Joshua Bingaman’s crisp voice sounded again, “Lord, this is the second gate that leads to the Firsdale Territory.”
“I see, it seems we are getting closer and closer to the source of the Dragon Mirage, or more accurately, the sealed Red Dragon.”
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray took another step, concentrating his energy to the extreme just like before.
According to Joshua Bingaman’s earlier explanation, Leo Ray learned that,
There were a total of three gates blocking the deepest part of the Underground Firsdale Territory.
From this, it was clear that the group had already traveled more than half of the journey.
Next, Leo Ray noticed that,
This time, the thick second gate had no lock, and Taylor easily pushed it completely open, striding in first.
Following Taylor’s steps, under the escort of the other subordinates, Leo Ray also plunged straight into the dense fog.
The next second, the thick fog dispersed. When Leo Ray’s vision was clear again,
He found himself in a peculiar black space.
Upon close observation, this space resembled the Void Space he had experienced in the final stage of the Ancient Battlefield Ruins Mirage.
Besides black, there were only the group’s silhouettes,
And the ground beneath their feet produced gentle ripples, rippling ever so slightly, as if they were stepping on water.
Most importantly, even though there was not a trace of light, everything could be seen incredibly vividly – a truly magical sight.
“My Lord, there doesn’t seem to be anything special here. Is the dragon’s dream about to end soon?”
At this moment, Bianca White had a puzzled look on her face, her fluffy white ears atop her head twitching slightly.
“No, it doesn’t seem that simple,” interjected Scarlett,
Her expression suddenly turning grave. She pointed at a distant piece of emptiness and said, “Quick, look over there!”
