Chapter 704: Strong Smell of Blood
The ferocious beast roared again, the sound spread in all directions, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
"W-What on earth is this?!"
The Iron Blooded General was completely dumbfounded as he recognized the beast for what it was.
"Isn't this the legendary ferocious beast?"
The iron-blooded warrior gasped, his face filled with shock.
The appearance of the ferocious beast was consistent with the image in his mind.
"How could the ancient beast appear here?"
No matter how he thought about it, he still had no answer and could only watch the ferocious beast wreak havoc.
......
"ah!"
Jiang Chen screamed, he was in great pain.
Endless murderous energy surged within his body, as if it was going to destroy his body.
But at the same time, the galaxy in Jiang Chen's body burst into brilliant light, enveloping Jiang Chen's entire body.
The light released by the galaxy drives away the violent energy in the body.
After a few seconds, Jiang Chen spat out a mouthful of black blood, his body collapsed, and he lay on the ground gasping for breath.
"Luckily there is Xinghe, otherwise I would not be able to hold on."
Jiang Chen said thankfully.
It was not only Xinghe’s credit, but Jiang Chen’s mental power also saved his life.
"My soul has become much stronger, and I think it will soon reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage."
Jiang Chen checked his own realm and smiled.
Although his mental strength was still at the Golden Core stage, it had risen to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
Only one step away from becoming a celestial being.
"My previous strength was at most comparable to that of an ordinary Zhenwu realm, but now my combat power can easily crush them."
Jiang Chen said confidently.
I gained a lot from this retreat, and my strength has surpassed that of before. I dare not say that I am invincible, but I don’t have to worry about meeting any powerful characters.
After resting for a while, Jiang Chen continued to look for rare treasures.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, he stopped and a look of confusion appeared on his face.
There was actually a cave in front of him.
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, walked into the cave, and found it was an ice cellar.
Chilly air wafted out of the ice cellar, freezing Jiang Chen's body.
“Is this the mysterious energy?”
Jiang Chen was shocked. The cold air here was filled with a chilly aura that made his hair stand on end.
"There is black ice here. Could it be the Mysterious Ice Crystal Mine?"
Jiang Chen quickly confirmed that there was top-grade black ice in the ice cellar.
"Haha, I'm making a fortune this time."
One of the goals of this retreat is Xuanbing, but now it seems that there is no need to wait until then.
Jiang Chen took the Xuanbing away without hesitation, which saved a lot of time.
"As expected of the emperor, the treasures he left behind are different."
Jiang Chen sighed.
He took the black ice and left the cave, ready to search somewhere else.
“Buzz!”
However, as soon as he came out of the cave, the dragon pendant on his wrist lit up with white light.
A stream of clear spring flowed out from it, wrapped around Jiang Chen, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"Fuck!"
Seeing this, the Iron-blooded General cursed, "Damn it, you stole my treasure."
......
When Jiang Chen opened his eyes, he had returned to Longyuan City.
Outside Longyuan City, hundreds of soldiers stood ready for battle.
When they saw Jiang Chen appear, they all bowed and showed respect.
These are the troops of Longyuan City.
"Longyuan City has been attacked, all soldiers on alert."
Jiang Chen spoke up and said that he would take these soldiers to Longyuan Valley.
"Yes, sir."
Hearing his order, the soldiers responded and began to set up a defense line.
Longyuan Valley, the burial site of Emperor Longyuan.
Longyuan City was built by Emperor Longyuan, and it houses the mausoleum of Emperor Longyuan.
Jiang Chen led this group of soldiers to the outside of Longyuan Valley.
"stop!"
The guard looked at Jiang Chen and shouted, "What do you want to do?"
"I've been ordered to protect the mausoleum of Emperor Longyuan." Jiang Chen said calmly.
Hearing this, the guard fell silent.
Emperor Longyuan has passed away for a thousand years. Who knows whether his mausoleum will be in danger? He cannot make a decision on his own.
Jiang Chen ignored all this and walked straight into the valley.
"Such a strong evil spirit."
As soon as he stepped in, Jiang Chen felt a little depressed.
“This is corpse qi.”
Suddenly, Xiao Qi said.
"Hmm?" Jiang Chen asked in surprise, "Has there ever been a living thing buried here ?"
"It's the Dragon Clan."
Xiao Qi said: "In order to fight against demons and monsters, the dragons sacrificed their bodies and transformed into evil dragons."
Jiang Chen suddenly realized, no wonder there was such a strong corpse aura.
"Master, you have dragon blood." Xiao Qi said again.
"I have it?" Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had the essence and blood of a real dragon in his body, making him half dragon.
"Master, Longyuan Valley is a secret place with many opportunities, but it is also very dangerous."
Xiao Qi told Jiang Chen a secret in a serious tone.
"What?"
Jiang Chen was extremely surprised.
He didn't expect that there was a secret place hidden deep in Longyuan Valley.
"The secret realm was created by the Great Emperor. As long as you are qualified to enter, you can gain inheritance and opportunities."
Xiao Qi said: "However, Emperor Longyuan has been dead for too long, it is easy for the inside to collapse, and even cause disasters."
Jiang Chen understood what he meant.
Once the secret realm collapses, the heritage inside will vanish, and everything inside will turn to ashes.
"I see."
Jiang Chen nodded. This was exactly the result he wanted.
"Master, you'd better not barge in rashly."
Xiao Qi added: "Otherwise, you must pay the price with your life."
"Don't worry, I know my limits." Jiang Chen said.
Immediately, he took a step forward and walked towards the depths of Longyuan Valley.
Just now he felt a familiar fluctuation.
This fluctuation comes from the depths of Longyuan Valley.
Passing through a long and narrow tunnel, Jiang Chen saw a ruined area with broken walls and broken buildings.
In the center of the ruins sat a shrunken skeleton.
This skeleton is very special, as it has no clothes on it.
His skin all over his body was flushed, as if burning in flames, with a faint luster.
“This is the dragon vein.”
Xiao Qi said: “The dragon vein is in the form of a dragon vein, and only the Dragon Emperor can possess it.”
"You know a lot." Jiang Chen said in surprise.
"hey-hey."
Xiao Qi smiled innocently and seemed very happy.
“Boom.”
Suddenly, the dragon vein's skeleton made a muffled sound, as if it came alive.
"The dragon vein has resurrected."
Xiao Qi said in surprise: "Hide quickly!"
"Dragon vein?"
Jiang Chen was stunned. He had no memory of this incident.
"This is the mausoleum of Emperor Longyuan . The dragon vein is the guardian of the mausoleum."
Xiao Qi said: "As long as it gets close to the mausoleum, it will attack the intruder."
“Roar~”
As soon as he finished speaking, the dragon vein roared and pounced towards Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen dodged hurriedly, but Longmai's claw missed and fell to the ground, immediately raising a cloud of dust.
The dragon vein was relentless and pounced again.
"snort!"
Jiang Chen shouted angrily and threw a punch.
With a bang, the dragon vein retreated and knocked down a palace.
“Ouch.”
Longmai howled in pain, and two lines of blood flowed from his eye sockets, looking extremely miserable.
"roar."
The dragon vein roared angrily and rushed over with its huge body.
"Although the dragon vein is strong, it is just a skeleton after all."
