Chapter 1328: Can’t people sleep anymore?

"Are there portals to all dimensions in the compass?" Nagris couldn't help but ask as a group of people walked into the portal one after another.

Ange nodded.

"Wow, our ancestor is really generous. He is worthy of being the God of Time and Space." Nagris couldn't help but admire.

I don't know how many dimensional spaces there are in this void, but judging by the number of space rifts, there are at least several thousand. Is there a portal leading to all dimensional spaces on the space-time compass? How expensive is a portal? How many thousands of them were built? Prodigal ancestor.

Passing through the portal, Ange felt like he had squeezed through a layer of bubbles, which reminded him of the situation when he traveled from the Palace of Rest to the Abyss of Rest.

That was also a portal, but not as advanced as the one in front of us. It still needed a solid "door frame" to support it. The one in front of us was just an oval hole with very neat edges. There was nothing to support it, and no changes could be seen on its edges.

This is a real test of one's understanding of space, just like drawing a straight line by hand. Some people draw it like a wavy line, while others draw it as if they were drawing with a ruler. Without a lot of experience, it would be impossible to draw it so neatly.

But there are thousands of portals, and each one connects to a different space. If each one is so regular, it means that the Dragon God has invested a lot of time in this regard. Is the Dragon God so idle?

Shouldn't the normal approach be to make a 'door frame' to support it, so that the edges are regular, and your head won't be chopped off by the irregular edges when you get too close to the edge.

After passing through the portal, everyone was ready for battle. The strange tree occupied the tomb of the ancestors, so as soon as they crossed the portal, everyone would most likely face a fierce battle. However, as soon as they crossed, everyone was dumbfounded. The ground was covered with dragon corpses, neatly arranged, covering the entire earth.

"This... this... is really a cemetery?" Nagris said in shock.

The one who was even more shocked was Yennefer. She stared at the scene with wide eyes, unable to say anything.

"What's going on? Don't just stand there. Have you been here before?" asked Negris.

Yennefer shook her head: "No, no, we seem to have come to the tombstone of the sleeping dead, but...but the tombstone is too big, right?"

After Yennefer's explanation, everyone understood what was going on. The dragons have a habit. When they feel they are about to die, they will return to the cemetery and quietly wait for death.

The dragon cemetery is heavily guarded, with several giant dragons guarding it all year round to prevent anyone from stealing their corpses. On the main plane, the dragons chose overseas islands as their birthplaces and cemeteries, which basically prevents their corpses from being stolen.

If the dragons on land cannot return before they die, they will prepare a safe place for death in advance. For example, Naieri had chosen her own cemetery at that time, but was later called out by Nagris and finally died of old age in the battle.

Including the bone dragon dug out from the Falling Dragon Lake, it is very likely that the giant dragon drilled in before dying and was buried there.

After all, a complete dragon corpse is very valuable. Dragon skin can be made into armor, dragon scales can be made into shields, dragon blood can be used for enchantments, and dragon bones can be used to make wine. If you don't want to be torn into pieces after death, it is necessary to return to a safe place before dying.

Dragon people also have this habit. When they feel that they are about to die, they will come to the ancestral cemetery, stand in the pit under the tombstone, activate it, and then they will fall into the pit.

As long as they enter the pit of the tombstone, the dragon people will slowly wait for death inside and will never leave here, so the dragon people outside never know what is inside the tombstone.

"So when you come down from the pit, you will end up here. When you are about to die, you will come down and find a place to lie down and wait to die. Is it like this?" said Negris.

After a pause, Nagris said, "Yennefer, these corpses are very well preserved. Go and see if there is anyone you recognize."

"Uh... okay." Yennefer flew up and started looking around. When she reached the air, she was even more shocked. The ground was covered with corpses of her own kind, with no end in sight.

Anthony, Ulsman and others had already squatted down to study the corpses.

"Every one of them is dry. There is air here, but the air is very dry and the temperature is not very low, which is very suitable for preserving corpses," said Anthony.

The airless void is actually not suitable for preserving corpses. It is not breathable, and moisture cannot be discharged. If the corpse is frozen inside, all the organs will burst. If you want to get a piece of meat that will be thawed and broken into pieces, the void can indeed preserve it for a long time.

The corpses in front of me have their skin and flesh fibers intact, turning into mummies. Even if such corpses are soaked, they will still be complete and will not break into pieces.

"But why does the Dragon God keep these corpses? Wouldn't it be better to just burn them? Does he want to resurrect them one day?" Ursman said.

If you just want to preserve it for future generations to admire, there is no need to build such a closed tomb. The body can be thrown in and it cannot be seen. If you just want to preserve it, there is no need to build such a ventilated environment. A void environment can preserve it for a very long time.

Now in its dry and complete state, it looks more like holy relics preserved by the Church, as if prepared for resurrection.

"I feel something is wrong." Negris also came over and said.

"What's wrong?" Anthony asked.

"There is no smell of death." said Nagris.

"Hiss——" Anthony took a breath. There was no smell of death. This was a serious problem.

After thinking for a while, Anthony said, "There are several possibilities for the lack of aura of death. One is that these dragon people have no souls."

"Impossible. Look at Yennefer and her wife and children. How could they not have souls? On the contrary, their souls are very strong, even stronger than dragon souls." Nagris said.

The soul of a dragon is so powerful that it even has its own name - dragon soul. The dragon soul is already very powerful, but each of the dragon people like Yennefer has a dragon soul that is more powerful than that of an ordinary dragon.

They are actually similar to Ang's Dragon God when he transformed into the first stage. It is very likely that they are the ones that Ang transformed into when he transformed into the first stage of Dragon God, so you can just treat them as the first-stage Dragon God.

However, there are so many corpses of first-level dragon gods displayed here, but there is no breath of death. Unless they have no souls, the problem is more serious.

At this moment, Yennefer, who had flown far away, suddenly howled in dragon language: "%￥…@*#"

Seeing everyone looking over, Negris quickly translated: "Its father."

Yennefer howled, then flew to the ground, picked up a corpse and started crying.

Nagris and the others flew over quickly, but before they could get close, a corpse suddenly turned over and sat up, roaring angrily: "%#￥%@￥#…&￥."

"What are you making so much noise for? Can't people sleep?" Negris translated.
