Chapter 1772 - I Am Now Undead (1)
During the ten-day preparatory period, Shen Yanxiao grasped every minute and second to memorize the topographic map of Hidden Dragon Continent.
The Hidden Dragon Continent was mainly separated into five parts:
The south, north, east, west, and central regions.
The central region of the Hidden Dragon Continent was previously divided up by the five most powerful eight-winged golden dragons. Long Huang was the strongest one of them. In addition, his wife, Long Miao, was the leader of the female eight-winged golden dragons, so their territorial location in the center was the best.
The other four dragons had little difference in strength when compared to each other and occupied the other four areas of the central region.
The remaining dragons were active in the other four directions: south, north, east, west.
The pattern of Hidden Dragon Continent had been like this for thousands of years. Few new eight-winged golden dragons could defeat the original Supreme Dragon King.
Plus, after the war between gods and devils, the number of eight-winged golden dragons decreased sharply. Female eight-winged golden dragons became so rare that they experienced difficulty producing the next generation. So the number of young eight-winged golden dragons on the Hidden Dragon Continent was very small, and there was no great change in the pattern. Most the young eight-winged golden dragons were seizing a piece of land outside the Hidden Dragon Continent that was not fertile at all, building their own territory there.
The area where Long Yan first attacked was the central region. It was Long Huang’s territory that suffered the first wave of attacks. After stabilizing Long Huang’s territory, Long Yan began to march toward the other four areas in the central region. In the process, two of the eight-winged golden dragons, whose strength was second only to Long Huang, were killed by the army of undead, and the other two escaped with serious injuries. They did not flee to the north and, so far, no dragon knew where the two golden dragons went.
Later, Long Yan, taking advantage of the geographical location of the central region, attacked other areas. Except for the north, at present, the whole Hidden Dragon Continent had been basically under Long Yan’s control.
Presently, Long Yan had integrated the central region of the Hidden Dragon Continent into his stronghold.
If Shen Yanxiao wanted to steal the map of Dragon King’s Decree, she must sneak into the central region of the Hidden Dragon Continent.
Tragically, because Long Yan couldn’t find the little golden dragon's whereabouts, right now he had sent a large number of undead to carry out an intense search throughout the Hidden Dragon Continent. If Shen Yanxiao attempted to use the flight speed of Vermillion Bird to approach the central position, it was likely that she would be bombarded by a large wave of undead before she could even get close..
Even with Taotie, Vermillion Bird, and Xiu at her sides, Shen Yanxiao still did not dare to charge to the enemy’s home base like that.
Wasn't that making her an obvious target?
Shen Yanxiao could only choose to move forward on her own feet. Anyway, she had a moonlight necklace which could avoid the perception of the undead. As for Vermillion Bird and Taotie, whose auras were so strong, Shen Yanxiao could only call them back into her body. Meanwhile, Shen Yanxiao was forced to leave Mini Dragon and Little Phoenix in Shen Yu and Wen Ya’s care before she departed.
After simply packing up, Shen Yanxiao embarked on a distant journey of thievery.
Wearing a black cloak, Shen Yanxiao set out from the north of the Hidden Dragon Continent. The style of the cloak was modeled after the one on the body of the undead who was captured by Shen Yanxiao previously. The broad cloak could cover up Shen Yanxiao's whole body, and its fierce appearance was no different from that of other undead.
In order to take care of her outer appearance, Shen Yanxiao also deliberately used appearance-changing potions to make her look like an undead; aside from the fact that there was no aura of death on her body, she looked like a real undead.
The Hidden Dragon Continent’s valley was covered with dense forests. Shen Yanxiao constantly poured acceleration potions into her mouth, so that her speed was greatly improved.
On the northern border, a few waves of undead could be faintly seen searching for their targets. Shen Yanxiao carefully avoided them and moved towards the central region of the Hidden Dragon Continent.
