Chapter 440 - 437: The Dragon Corpse That Cannot Be Shrunk
The tsunami subsided.
The True Dragon corpse sank into the water.
The sea returned to tranquility.
...
In the depths of the sea.
"Swoosh!"
A figure flew rapidly from the distance, quickly approaching the True Dragon corpse, upon closer inspection, it was actually Gao Fei.
"This is the legendary True Dragon!"
Gao Fei watched the True Dragon corpse without blinking an eye, feeling extremely excited.
"I never thought that dragons really existed in this world!"
"How did this True Dragon die?"
"Why can't I see any wounds?"
Gao Fei circled around the Dragon Corpse but found no wounds.
The death of this True Dragon was mysterious!
"Alright, don't waste time, hurry up and take the Dragon Ball," Xuanjizi's voice echoed in his mind.
"Understood." Gao Fei moved to the underside of the True Dragon corpse, the abdominal area, took out a dagger, and stabbed at the corpse's belly.
"Ding dang!"
"Crack!"
The dagger broke on the spot.
"Such an indestructible body!" Gao Fei exclaimed in admiration.
After that, Gao Fei tried many methods but none could cut open the abdomen of the Dragon Corpse, and gradually, he started to get anxious.
In the end, having no other options, Gao Fei could only seek advice from Xuanjizi.
"I don't have a good solution either..." Xuanjizi said, "unless..."
"Unless what?" Gao Fei asked eagerly.
"If you could refine the Li Fire and use it to burn the Dragon Corpse, it might work."
"Li Fire would work?"
"Li Fire is only second to Samadhi True Fire in terms of flame power, it's quite potent."
"What should I do now?"
"The best method is... to take this Dragon Corpse with you, wait until you have refined the Li Fire, then extract the Dragon Ball."
"I have no other choice then."
...
It was not feasible to simply take the Dragon Corpse out like that, the best method was to shrink its size and then put it into a Storage Bag.
That's what Gao Fei did... but...
"The Dragon Corpse can't be shrunk." Gao Fei was frantic.
"If that's the case, then there's trouble," Xuanjizi sighed, "If you take the Dragon Corpse out like this, it will definitely cause a huge sensation. Various powerhouses will emerge to snatch it away, and with your current strength, you won't be able to keep the Dragon Corpse."
"What should I do then?"
Gao Fei didn't know what to do.
"Hum!"
At that moment, a Bronze Coffin floated over from the distance with astonishing speed. One moment it was hundreds of feet away, and the next it was right in front of Gao Fei.
"How's it going? Did you get the Dragon Ball?" Mental Power fluctuations emanated from inside the Bronze Coffin.
Gao Fei shook his head, "No! The Dragon Corpse is too hard, I can't break it open..."
"Boom boom boom!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Sudden loud noises began to emanate from the depths of the sea.
"They've caught up so quickly!" The Bronze Coffin shook, "Quick, gather the Dragon Corpse and leave this place."
"I can't pack it... the Dragon Corpse can't be shrunk..."
"What? It can't be shrunk?"
"Yes! I've tried many times, all unsuccessful."
"This is troublesome..." The elder in the Bronze Coffin pondered for a moment before making a decision, "Tie up the Dragon Corpse with ropes, then tie the other end of the ropes to the Bronze Coffin."
Gao Fei widened his eyes, "Senior, what are you planning to do?"
"Since the Dragon Corpse can't be shrunk into the Storage Bag, we'll have to take it by force."
"Doing this... is too dangerous..."
"As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold; for the Dragon Ball, it's worth taking some risks."
"But..."
"Hurry up and do it, the enemy is about to catch up."
...
Gao Fei clenched his teeth, took out a rope from the storage ring, tied one end to the dragon corpse's horn, and the other end to the bronze coffin, "Okay, it's tied up!"
"Is the rope strong?" the old man in the bronze coffin asked. "It won't break, will it?"
"It shouldn't." Gao Fei shook his head. "This rope is very sturdy."
"Then that's good!" the old man in the bronze coffin was relieved. "Don't just stand there, come on in!" A crack opened in the lid of the coffin.
Gao Fei leapt into the bronze coffin.
"Click!"
The lid of the coffin closed.
Gao Fei was immediately enveloped by darkness.
"Rumble..."
Gao Fei could clearly feel the bronze coffin sink down and then quickly take flight. He said in his mind, hoping everything goes well!
...
It was a matter of moments.
No sooner had the bronze coffin taken away the dragon corpse than twelve family masters rushed over.
"Not good! The dragon corpse has been taken by the bronze coffin!"
"Chase after it! We must take the dragon corpse back no matter what!"
"Where did that bronze coffin come from? How eerie!"
The twelve family masters soared in pursuit.
...
Above the sea.
A group of people were hunting sawtooth fish all around.
"The exam is almost over," a man with a face full of pockmarks said with a wry smile. "I've only killed a few hundred sawtooth fish; I'm definitely going to be at the bottom this time."
"I'm even worse than you," said a bald man. "I've only killed just over a hundred sawtooth fish. I might as well be first place—the countdown that is."
"For some reason, the sawtooth fish suddenly became scarce, and it's been days since I've seen one."
"Let's go check out the deeper parts of the sea."
"Let's go, let's have a look."
The group set off towards the depths of the sea.
"Boom!!!"
The water ahead suddenly exploded, and a bronze coffin burst forth from the sea, followed by a… dragon!
"My God! Am I seeing things? Is that a dragon?"
"It's really a dragon!"
"Heavens above! I've actually seen a dragon!"
"There are dragons in this world?"
While everyone was still in shock, the bronze coffin had already pulled the dragon corpse away swiftly, and in a matter of moments, only two small black dots remained.
"Boom boom boom!!!"
Another twelve figures burst from the water and chased after the bronze coffin and dragon corpse.
Everyone was dumbfounded!
What on earth had happened?
They huddled together, whispering and discussing at length, but couldn't come to a conclusion.
Today's events were too bizarre.
...
Hundreds of miles away in the sea.
Twelve men floated in mid-air, frowning and looking troubled.
"To disappear right under our noses!"
"The bronze coffin and dragon corpse must be hidden underwater."
"Nonsense! Of course I know they're hiding underwater! The real question is, do you know the exact location? The sea is vast and boundless, and with only twelve of us, even if we look for a lifetime, we might never trace the bronze coffin and dragon corpse."
"So, what do we do? We can't just give up, can we?"
"Of course we can't give up! Our nephews are already dead, and if we lose the dragon corpse, when we return, the family head will surely blame us, and we may well be punished."
"Let's split up and search. If you find it, release a signal immediately, and everyone must rush over at once."
After a brief discussion, the twelve men split up and dove into the water to search for the whereabouts of the bronze coffin and dragon corpse.
