The gigantic Ancient Dragon's Tomb had been completely occupied by the Magi that had swarmed in.
Sporadic battles were still going on outside.
Some of the newly awakened dragon tomb guards and dragon souls were invincible to normal grave robbers, but to the well-prepared elite wizards, they were just a bunch of high-grade undead creatures that were hard to deal with.
Soul Reaping Spell, War Spirit Spell, Death Barrier, Anti-Magic Field, Protection Against Evil … As an elite wizard, there were simply too many ways to deal with these old antiques who had been asleep for thousands of years, and whose brains were a little 'messed up'.
If they couldn't do it, they could also use some spells that were powered by positive energy to inflict great damage on them. However, in order to maximize their profits, no one was willing to waste the high-grade materials that represented "magic crystals" and turn them into dust.
Grimm ate the meat, and the rest of the soup went to the wizards who followed him.
The Dragon's Ancient Tomb wasn't small by any means.
Hundreds of giant dragon skeletons were buried in a strange space with a radius of tens of miles.
Some of the dragon skeletons were half-buried in the soil, with traces of the passage of time on them. Some had fused with the mountain rocks, turning into a greyish-white fossil-like appearance … But without exception, in this magical space, their skeletons were overflowing with a dense aura of death that was so dense that it was almost solid.
The Dragon Tomb Guards formed from their skeletons and the Specter Dragons formed from the dragon souls became the main obstacles for the wizards to plunder the spoils of war.
Groups of wizards skillfully took out Soul Reaping Wands or War Spirit Scrolls and tied up the phantom dragons with elemental chains. Then, they carefully put them into soul crystals or soul urns.
As for the rampaging Dragon Tomb Guards, they could only rely on the Anatomy Refinery Sorcerers who were covered with layers of defensive enchantments or anti-magic force fields to break them up. Every time a guardian's body was broken into pieces, the Magi would burst into cheers. Then, they would quickly pick up the high-ranked giant dragon skeletons one by one.
While the Sorcerers were collecting their spoils of war, Grimm and Remy were circling around the small dragon bone altar, sizing it up.
For some reason, Grim had a strange feeling that he had missed something important.
As a Great Sorcerer, there was almost no possibility of his perception being wrong. As long as his heart felt something, it would inevitably indicate that something unfavorable was happening outside of his perception. It was just that Grimm did not practice prophecy, so he could not determine the source of this unknown danger.
However, this matter had arisen because of the exploration of the Dragon Tomb. It was certain that this Dragon Lich was the culprit!
Grimm picked up the Dragon Lich whose limbs were about to be melted by the venom and raised it in front of his eyes. He stared coldly at the Dragon Lich's narrow and fierce green eyes and said sternly, "Little guy, don't play tricks in front of me, or I'll make you …"
Before he could finish, Grimm's voice stopped abruptly. The A.I. Chip's warning sounded in his mind.
"Beep, faith mark detected in the depths of target's soul …"
Faith Waymark?
Grimm's heart skipped a beat as information about this flooded his mind.
Faith Waymarks were a special method of spatial positioning, and were a sign that a devout believer was noticed by the god they worshipped. Through the Waymark, the god could sense the life and death of their worshippers even if they were millions of miles away.
If a worshipper died in an accident, the Waymark would automatically turn into a channel and send the worshipper's soul into the god's divine kingdom.
This process was spontaneous and could not be interfered with.
If someone intercepted the worshipper's soul, it would easily attract the attention of the god.
Under normal circumstances, no one would be willing to provoke the high and mighty gods for the sake of a worshipper's soul. However, there were many times when it was necessary to silence the worshipper's soul.
Although Grimm had no intention of silencing the Dragon Lich, the fact that the Dragon Lich's soul contained a Waymark of Faith shocked him, and he found it inconceivable.
After all, the Dragon Lich was a creature that had transcended the realm of living beings and was an undead creature through and through. Such a taboo was not allowed even within the Dragon Clan.
Under normal circumstances, large dragon tombs were usually guarded and managed by the 'dragons' appointed by the Dragon Clan. The interior of the tombs would also have dragon spells set up to prevent undead dragons from appearing. Only those neglected or abandoned dragon tombs could give birth to Dragon Tomb Guards or Dragon Liches, such as the Undead Dragon Clan.
Since there was even a Dragon Lich in this tomb, it must have been abandoned by the Dragon Clan. But if that was the case, how could the Waymark of Faith in the Dragon Lich's soul be explained?
Could it be that the Dragon Clan could accept the power of faith of an undead dragon?
Strange, evil, and inexplicable …
"Evil Magus, just wait to suffer the wrath of the Dragon Clan! Sinclair won't let you go … "Although the Dracolich had lost its ability to resist, it was still cursing loudly with its green eyes. Grim was slightly taken aback when he heard the name that the Dracolich mentioned.
Sinclar … That name sounded familiar! That's right, this was the powerful female dragon that had sworn to follow the Dragon of Night, Farazur. She was also one of the famous evil dragons in the multiverse.
If she was the Dragon Lich's backer, then everything made sense!
However, just as Grimm was pondering silently, the A.I. Chip's urgent prompt sounded in his mind.
[Beep. Strange spatial positioning signal detected … Signal source: Dragon Bone Altar!]
What?
Hearing this news, Grimm's heart tightened. He raised his right hand and instantly condensed a huge amount of flame energy. With a bang, he slammed it onto the small Dragon Bone Altar.
With a crisp crack, the Dragon Bone Altar collapsed.
The shattered dragon bones fell to the ground, revealing a small and exquisite mysterious formation of light. White light flickered within the formation, and according to some mysterious pattern, it was sending an unknown signal to a certain place in the void.
Grimm's eyes sharpened, and he snorted angrily.
"How dare you play this kind of trick right under my nose. Hmph … "
Having said this, Grimm stretched out his large hand. Blazing red flames instantly ignited on it, and he viciously grabbed at the mysterious formation of light. However, unexpectedly, the large flaming hand grabbed nothing but air. It was as if the formation of light was just an illusion without a physical body. The large flaming hand tossed and turned many times, but it was unable to damage it in the slightest.
Was the formation of light really an illusion?
Grimm was the first to not believe it, because the mysterious signal that the A.I. Chip had sensed was real.
This meant that this strange formation of light had a unique spatial characteristic. It seemed to be within the space of the dragon's tomb, but in reality, it was located in a completely different space.
As for how the other party managed to project him into this space, Grimm had no idea either, and it was difficult for him to figure it out.
"A.I. Chip, can you find the true location of the formation of light?" Grimm could not help but order the A.I. Chip.
"Beep, this is a special spatial layer usage technique. The light formation isn't located in any alternate space, but between two adjacent spaces … Without a specific method of communication, it's impossible to find the spatial location of the light formation …"
Communication method …
Grimm turned to look at the Dragon Lich who was still cursing incessantly, and naturally knew that there was a method of communication hidden in its mind. However, time was of the essence. Even if he used the soul-searching spell to force it, the chances of obtaining the memory fragments that he wanted was less than 20%.
Hence, Grimm's brows furrowed, and he asked coldly, "Is there no other way to touch this formation of light?"
"Yes, the power of laws … Since the formation of light has been projected into this plane, it definitely has a special method of communication with the power of laws here … Ordinary methods might not be able to touch it, but the power of laws will definitely be able to touch it!"
"The power of laws? You should've said so earlier! "
Grimm was overjoyed. The flaming hand that had reached into the formation of light suddenly retracted its brilliance, and the terrifying heat was quickly replaced by a transparent golden flame. Inextinguishable flames covered Grimm's palm, and transparent threads of energy began to silently affect the surrounding void.
As expected, the law of flames vibrated, and the mysterious formation of light began to tremble.
[Analysing the frequency of the undulations of laws. Estimated time of completion: 7 minutes 25 seconds …]
[Beep. Warning, warning … Signs of the descent of a mysterious will. Estimated time of arrival: 5 minutes 36 seconds …]
Two pieces of information entered Grimm's mind at the same time. The first made him happy, while the second made him shocked.
Descent …
Bastard, no wonder the Dragon Lich was so stubborn. It had been acting as a spatial beacon all along, guiding the mysterious will from the other side to descend here!
Grimm made up his mind, and the power of his right hand that was inserted into the formation increased once again. Violent and ferocious law of flames surged into the strange spatial singularity at the center of the formation of light, wanting to destroy it in one fell swoop.
Without this spatial singularity, the other party would lose the ability to locate him. If it wanted to extend its will across millions of miles of the Endless Sea of Stars, it would have to wait until it became the master of this space!
However, the mysterious will on the other side of the formation of light seemed to have sensed Grimm's actions, and an extremely terrifying dragon aura surged through the void into his consciousness.
"Stop it, arrogant bastard! You can't destroy the spatial waymark that I've set up … I'll give you a few minutes to escape. When I get there, I'll definitely teach you a lesson! " With such a powerful dragon aura, Grimm was certain that the person on the other side of the formation of light was Sinclar, the Dragon Lich had mentioned.
It was said that this evil little female dragon was a terrifying existence at rank 6!
If … I'm saying if, if she used the spatial waymark to appear in this plane, none of the Magi here would have a good time. Even a great Magus like Grimm would find it difficult to escape unscathed.
