Chapter 717: Chapter 285: Shadow of the Giant Dragon, Tageen Mountain Range (6000)_2

It seemed as if they were also happy to be able to go out.

Next to them, Wally was on all fours with the little girl Tong Chuchu perched on his back, and his running speed was not at all slow.

Compared to before, everyone’s move speed had once again significantly increased.

And with Da Bai leading the way ahead, they met with no obstacles.

In about an hour, they had advanced a hundred kilometers.

On the way, Cao Xing saw a few small rivers covered with ice and some ponds.

The soul of the fishing enthusiast inside him stirred restlessly.

He couldn’t resist the urge to take out the [Mad King’s Fishing Rod] and cast a few lines into these waters.

However, since the place they were headed to was quite far, a whole four hundred kilometers away,

Cao Xing buried his head and continued onward.

They crossed over rivers, forests, and mountains along the way.

Finally, after nearly three hours of hurried travel,

Cao Xing and his companions arrived at the [Tageen Mountain Range].

The group stopped at the foot of a mountain.

According to the map, crossing over this mountain in front of them would lead them into the mountain range.

Inside lay various complex terrains and towering mountains, comparable in size to the [Borialis Mountains].

Cao Xing admired the forest before him, blanketed in ice and snow.

A system prompt appeared.

[You have discovered the Tageen Mountain Range.]

[Map Introduction: The Tageen Mountain Range is vast, snow-covered year-round, and harbors numerous legends. Some have even seen a Giant Dragon fly over and descend into the depths of the mountains.

Moreover, this is the main passage connecting the Gale Snow Plain with the outside world. Passing through the Tageen Mountain Range, you will reach a new region, the Brisban Wilds.]

[Please Note: The Brisban Wilds was originally the region belonging to area 180, and it is a necessary route to reach the Eternal Frost Main City, a region rich in trade.]

…

Seeing the system prompt, Cao Xing was stunned.

“Goodness, are there really dragons roaming within this mountain range?”

Giant Dragons were different from Ancient Giant Dragons.

Though both belonged to the Dragon Clan, their powers were worlds apart.

Pureblood Dragon Clan members took thousands of years to grow from childhood to adulthood. During this period, as long as they continued eating, their power would keep increasing.

The most ordinary young dragon was born with third-tier strength.

During their growth, their physical strength constantly increased, breaking through to the Fourth Rank, Fifth Rank, Sixth Tier…

Until they reached their peak, they would then slowly enter the decline phase.

And it was said that any peak-period Giant Dragon possessed strength above the Ninth Rank…

However, once they entered the decline phase, the physical power of a Dragon would plummet drastically.

But after thousands of years of training, these dragons in the decline phase no longer relied solely on physical strength.

They also learned a variety of ancient Dragon Clan spells.

So, even if it was a dragon in its decline phase, it still possessed terrifying power nearly capable of destroying heaven and earth!

The difference between Ancient Giant Dragons and pureblood Dragon Clan is that they do not enter a decline phase.

In other words, as long as an Ancient Giant Dragon was alive, it could continuously maintain its terrifying growth speed and became stronger.

Until it rivaled a True God!

However, balance was inherent in all things.

The immense power of Ancient Giant Dragons also destined them to be few in number.

Over countless years, only six Ancient Giant Dragons were ever born.

The Ancient Giant Dragon of shadow and death, ’Zetan,’ the Ancient Giant Dragon of ice and persuasion, ’Zhuoma,’ and the Ancient Giant Dragon of crystal and fury, ’Karakato’…

So, although he knew there might be dragons in this mountain range,

Cao Xing had no intention of messing with them.

After all, the strength of any Giant Dragon was extremely terrifying.

With the power he possessed now, provoking a dragon was simply akin to courting death.

However, there was another piece of information that caught Cao Xing’s attention.

“I didn’t expect that crossing this mountain range would lead to a new map.”

“No wonder when I looked at the map, I found that this mountain range was located at the edge of the Gale Snow Plain map.”

“I haven’t been to the Brisban Wilds; there must be many areas worth exploring there.”

“And the system prompt says that to get to the Eternal Frost Main City, you have to pass through there.”

“It seems that I should check it out when I have time in the future.”

However, for the current Cao Xing, finding cows was still more important.

So, he said directly, “Sarah, look for a route into the mountains.”

“Yes, my Lord.”

The beautiful Dark Elf exited the [Moon Wheel Dance] form, then entered [Stealth] status, quickly disappearing from the spot.

Everyone waited patiently.

A few minutes later, Sarah’s figure reappeared.

“I have found a small path into the mountains.”

Hearing this, Cao Xing’s face lit up; Sarah’s efficiency was as high as ever.

“Good, lead us over.”

With that, the group followed Sarah and progressed all the way, soon finding a path leading into the mountain.

They stepped right in.

Following this path for about four or five hundred meters, they came to a rugged mountain road.

Before them lay towering mountains covered in ice and snow, with various unknown plants growing among them.

The mountain tops were shrouded in a white mist, making the place look like a paradise on earth.

[You have entered the Tageen Mountain Range…]

Now, they had officially entered the mountain range.

Cao Xing pressed on the communication device in his ear and then asked, “Eliza, we’ve entered the mountain, where are you now?”

“Zz… Zz…”

Eliza responded softly, “Lord, you finally arrived. I’m at Raider Valley, watching over that group of yaks!”

Cao Xing opened the map for a look and found that the [Raider Valley] Eliza mentioned was about in the central area of the mountain range.
