X-Dragon Era

Desert of Death, City of Death, Death Dunes... The birth of these names is actually all related to the Sand Dragon, precisely because such powerful Wild Giant Dragons exist here that these names were born.

The power of the Death Sand Dragon is beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

Composed entirely of gray-black gravel, a punch thrown at it causes gravel to splatter in all directions, but it does not inflict any damage on the Death Sand Dragon. The scattered gravel quickly flies back, rapidly repairing the Dragon's body.

As for energy attacks, their effects are also extremely weak unless the attack is powerful enough. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to overwhelm, that's right... to overwhelm, not to kill, for this is a dragon you can overwhelm but absolutely cannot annihilate.

The Death Sand Dragon has a unique attack method: it can continuously eject Death Sand Gravel and shoot at the enemy. The sand is shiny and red with a fiery quality, and very few dragons can withstand the ultra-high temperature of the gravel once struck by it.

The attacks of the Death Sand Dragon are like those of a machine gun, ejecting gravel the size of ping pong balls. In fact... the Death Sand Dragon is made up of fist-sized, gray-black polyhedrons, and the gravel it shoots out is actually part of its body.

The Death Sand Dragon's attack method is monotonous; starting from Bronze One Star, it uses this method, and until the very end, this is the only method it employs, except the speed of the gravel, the frequency of ejection, and the force of the sand increase progressively.

Just imagine, when hundreds of Sand Dragons are gathered together, attacking the same target like machine guns, even Yi Luo Xiang would probably have no choice but to flee.

Of course, Yi Luo Xiang would not be able to summon so many Death Sand Dragons. According to the deductions from her past life, she would at most summon no more than nine. At the moment Xin Yun was reborn, Yi Luo Xiang had only six enslaved dragons.

Once she had the Death Sand Dragon, although Yi Luo Xiang might still not be able to defeat those real masters, she also would not fall to the point of being pursued and beaten. Faced with the indestructible and relentlessly attacking Death Sand Dragon, there really aren't many who could do anything about it.

The greatest feature of the Death Sand Dragon is its indestructibility, even overwhelming it is very difficult, followed by its abundance; it appears in hundreds to thousands at a time, and finally, although its methods of attack are monotonous, they are exceptionally sharp and fierce, just like a heavy machine gun, rattling on and on...

a succession of ejections, and those scorching hot sand granules are so sharp, definitely making it one of the most troublesome wild dragons, otherwise, these creatures would not be associated with death.

Death Sand Dragons reside on the Death Dunes, which are on the Death Sand Sea, and the Death Sand Sea is on top of the Desert of Death. At the very center of the Desert of Death is the City of Death. All these names together perhaps prove the terrifying nature of the Death Sand Dragon.

Once you encounter a Death Sand Dragon, aside from people at the level of the Nine Great Experts who can escape alive, few can make it out alive. In fact, escaping from the center of the Death Dunes is one of the validations of being one of the Nine Great Experts.

In his past life, Xin Yun also tried to test the Death Dunes, but unfortunately, after going back and forth hundreds of times, he was still unable to break through the edge of the Death Dunes. It was precisely that experience that gave Xin Yun a clear understanding of the Desert of Death.

He not only mastered the safe passage through the Desert of Death but also had a detailed grasp of the distribution of the Death Sand Dragons. Otherwise, with their current Bronze One Star strength, he wouldn't have dared to come.

Following the memories of his past life, it took them more than three days, but they finally reached the periphery of the Death Dunes in the depths of the Death Sand Sea. Further inside was where the Death Sand Dragons were entrenched.

The sand grains near the Death Dunes are particularly peculiar, very large and uniform; each one the size of a peanut, piling up like little stones, with a dull gray color, looking very oppressive.

Death Dunes is not the name of a single dune but a group of millions of dunes altogether, with innumerable Death Sand Dragons living between them.

Looking down at the lifeless Death Sand Sea below, Xin Yun cautiously said to Yi Luo Xiang beside him, "Wait for me here while I go scout ahead. If anything changes, turn around and leave immediately."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang knew this was not the time for pleasantries and obediently nodded. She then summoned her Flash Butterfly Dragon and flew away into the distance.

Seeing Yi Luo Xiang retreat from the grey Sand Sea area, Xin Yun took a deep breath. Although the Death Sand Dragon was terrifying, it wouldn't fly out of this grey Sand Sea region; therefore, Yi Luo Xiang's current position was still very safe.

Xin Yun steered Yinglong silently toward the depths of the Death Sand Dunes. According to his memories from a previous life, a Death Sand Dragon of the bronze One Star level should be lurking around here.

The Death Sand Dunes were spread out quite extensively. Near the periphery were relatively weaker Bronze-level Sand Dragons, composed of sand grains the size of peanuts, and they spewed out sand grains of the same size. But, the force behind them was anything but weak—at the stage of Bronze One Star, this was considered top-grade attack power.

However, the sand grains within the Death Sand Dunes were not all of the same average size. The closer to the center, the larger the grains became. It was said that the grains in the central part were the size of fists and exceptionally uniform.

"Whoosh..." A suffocating hot wind blew over, a faint, light grey sand dust whirling up from the dunes and passing by obliquely from Xin Yun's right front.

Xin Yun instinctively took a sharp breath in. This grey-black sand dust was not your ordinary natural sand; in fact... it was a flying Sand Dragon!

A Death Sand Dragon, solidified into one entity, was dull in color, heavy with the aura of death. Yet when it moved, it was merely a light grey breeze—easy to miss if not observed carefully.

Although the Death Sand Dragon was made up of sand grains, these grey-black grains were actually semi-transparent. When combined, they appeared somewhat dull, but when dispersed into particles, the color was very faint.

Even though Xin Yun's evasion was timely, it was obvious that the Death Sand Dragon noticed him right away after all... the Death Sand Dunes were the home of the Death Sand Dragon. The sudden appearance of a blue dragon was easily discovered. In contrast, in the dim Death Desert, spotting a faint grey gust wasn't that simple.

"Sss..." Amid a sharp whooshing, a grey-black air current blew over in an instant and stopped abruptly about 100 meters in front of Xin Yun, transforming from a gale into a grey tornado.

The sand grains inside the tornado quickly congealed together, swiftly assembling into a small dragon with grey-black, bat-like wings, a slender, streamlined body, a long beak reminiscent of a woodpecker, and elongated, powerful limbs.

It was referred to as a small dragon simply because, compared to other giant dragons, this one's body was much smaller, roughly three meters in length and very slender—only half the size of a sedan.

Its pair of wings wasn't too big either, but not too small, giving it an overall well-proportioned appearance, especially in conjunction with the streamlined body and the metallic shimmer of its body, imparting the feeling of a high-tech product.

Facing this small Sand Dragon in front of him, Xin Yun couldn't help but panic. Wasn't his luck just too bad? The very first one he encountered was a Leader Level Death Sand Dragon—the kind that could produce Dragon Crystals.

A Leader Dragon was different from ordinary dragons, possessing special abilities. Generally, one out of every ten dragons would be a Leader Dragon. Although not rare, encountering one first off was indeed unlucky.

As Xin Yun was inwardly sighing, a gust of wind blew around him, and in an instant... seven or eight Death Sand Dragons appeared, surrounding Xin Yun tightly.

Xin Yun was greatly shocked. At this moment, he finally realized that it wasn't his luck that was terrible. In fact, the first to notice Xin Yun wasn't this Leader Dragon but these ordinary Death Sand Dragons, and it was under the direction of this Leader Dragon that the ambush was completed.

All along, Xin Yun had been cautious, but subconsciously, he still moved forward following habits from his past life, forgetting that his current perception could not compare to the moment of his rebirth. Even when he was discovered, he hadn't felt it until the enemy revealed themselves and surrounded him—that's when he finally came to his senses.

Facing the encirclement of nearly ten Sand Dragons, Xin Yun didn't dare to delay. With a thought, Yinglong instantly whipped its tail, body coiling back as it flapped its wings, howling towards the perimeter of the Death Sand Dunes to escape.
