Chapter 712: Strong Sense of Crisis
"All these spiritual sources belong to me."
Jiang Chen looked at the spiritual sources all over the ground, stretched out his left hand , and grabbed one of the spiritual sources through the air.
Buzz~
Suddenly, Jiang Chen felt a strong sense of crisis and quickly retracted his hand. Looking down, he saw a talisman stuck on his wrist.
"How do you know this formation?"
Jiang Chen said in horror.
This is the restriction he set up, and only he can activate it. It is impossible for outsiders to unlock it.
"Are you really the Dragon King?"
The talisman paper burned out, revealing an old man with white hair and beard, and deep eyes full of wisdom.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Chen's pupils suddenly contracted.
He knew this old man, it was the Dragon Emperor!
"Yes, I am the Dragon King."
The Dragon Emperor nodded slightly and said, "At the beginning, I fought with the Emperor and was seriously injured. I was defeated by the Emperor and eventually died."
"The emperor not only defeated me, but also sealed me in a coffin and suppressed me in the capital."
"My body has long since decayed, but my soul is still alive, lingering on until now."
"You just said that the dragon vein essence is yours?"
As the Dragon Emperor spoke, he stared at Jiang Chen, his eyes sharp, like two blades.
"That's right."
Jiang Chen frankly admitted that his goal in coming here was to get the essence of the dragon veins, and he was not afraid of the Dragon Emperor's questioning.
"Haha, you want to get the dragon vein essence. I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I'm well prepared."
The Dragon Emperor roared towards the sky.
"Boom~"
Suddenly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, the wind was howling, lightning and thunder were flashing, it was a doomsday scene.
"What's going on? "
The villagers woke up from their sleep and looked at the scene outside the window, at a loss.
" The dragon vein is going to be resurrected?!"
Jiang Chen looked at the black dragon hovering above the roof in shock, with a huge wave of emotion rising in his heart.
"The dragon vein is the foundation of our clan. How can we give it up so easily? Especially a little human like you who took away the essence of the dragon vein while I was unconscious."
The Dragon King roared, "I will destroy the dragon vein now and kill you completely!"
Roar~
The black dragon roared angrily and rushed towards Jiang Chen like a galloping horse.
Jiang Chen's face darkened slightly. The dragon vein essence was his goal, so how could he let others take it away?
"Stay here!"
Jiang Chen shouted coldly, activated the "Dragon Controlling Technique", and transformed into a purple-gold dragon.
Oh~
The dragon's roar resounded in all directions, Jiang Chen flew into the sky to meet the black dragon.
Boom!
When the black dragon collided with the divine dragon, the sound of a landslide and tsunami spread throughout the village. The villagers covered their ears and trembled.
Jiang Chen's aura was so overbearing that he easily overwhelmed the black dragon.
"ah."
The black dragon screamed and its huge body swayed continuously, appearing to be in great pain.
“So strong!”
Jiang Chen was shocked that this black dragon was so weak.
"Do you think the dragon vein is really that simple?"
Suddenly, the Dragon Emperor's ridicule reached Jiang Chen's ears.
"Um?"
Jiang Chen's face suddenly changed as he felt a suffocating wave surging from the black dragon's body, like a vast ocean, extremely dangerous.
Bang!
The black dragon suddenly exploded and turned into millions of black stone pieces, attacking Jiang Chen in an overwhelming manner.
"Oops!"
Jiang Chen's face changed drastically and he quickly stepped back, but he was half a second too late and was hit by the black stone.
Phew.
Bright red blood spurted out, and Jiang Chen's chest was covered with several hideous wounds. His skin was cracked, and even his white bones were exposed.
whoosh whoosh whoosh.
The black stone pieces did not stop and continued to shoot towards Jiang Chen, trying to pierce him.
"Nine Yang Magic Skill."
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and used fire-attributed martial arts to release scorching heat, melting the black stone.
However, the melted stone flakes still had sharp attack power, scratching Jiang Chen's skin and causing new injuries.
"snort."
Jiang Chen groaned and activated the "Dragon Control Art" to absorb the spiritual energy emitted by the dragon vein and replenish the consumed true energy.
The essence of dragon veins contains surging energy, which greatly helps Jiang Chen recover his strength.
"Who is this little guy? How come he has dragon essence?"
On the other side, the Dragon Emperor noticed Jiang Chen and looked surprised.
He talked to Jiang Chen, and although he was in a soul state, it was not affected at all and he could clearly feel Jiang Chen's breath.
“Could it be…”
The Dragon Emperor thought of a possibility and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"The dragon vein essence has been taken away by someone, you must die!"
He glared at Jiang Chen, wishing he could eat his flesh and blood, tear out his bones, and cut him into pieces.
"You want to kill me, but your strength is not enough."
Jiang Chen was not afraid at all, his cultivation was higher than that of the Dragon Emperor.
Even without the help of dragon vein essence, the Dragon Emperor can still be killed.
"You underestimate me."
The Dragon Emperor sneered and said, "Although the dragon vein essence is sealed in the coffin by me, the dragon vein core is still in my body!"
"What?"
Jiang Chen's face changed drastically. The core of the dragon vein was still in the Dragon Emperor's body. Didn't that mean he would never be able to kill the Dragon Emperor?
"Do you still want to kill me now?"
The Dragon King said proudly: "If you submit to me obediently, perhaps I can spare your life and let you continue to live."
Jiang Chen had a cold face and said nothing.
"Stubborn."
The Dragon Emperor shook his head, his eyes grim.
"What are you going to do?"
Jiang Chen sensed something was wrong.
The Dragon Emperor raised his claws and formed an ancient mark.
Dragon Seal!
Jiang Chen's pupils constricted as he sensed deadly danger.
As the dragon seal appeared, the void trembled, as if it would shatter at any time.
Boom!
The dragon seal fell with the pressure of annihilation, and the space was annihilated inch by inch, forming a dark beam of light that enveloped Jiang Chen.
“It’s over!”
Jiang Chen's heart sank. In his current state, it was impossible for him to withstand the Dragon Seal.
"No, we have to find the dragon vein essence quickly."
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and used all his strength to activate the essence of the dragon vein. Suddenly, a vast amount of energy surged into his body, healing his injuries and taking his cultivation to a new level.
"Break it for me!"
Jiang Chen shouted loudly, his fist burst into dazzling golden light, and punched towards the dragon seal.
Bang!
The dragon seal hit Jiang Chen's fist. Jiang Chen groaned and his body flew backwards.
Crack! The dragon seal fell, creating a hole in the ground.
Jiang Chen was lying in the pit, his whole body twitching, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and he looked miserable.
His right arm hung limply and the severe pain caused sweat to break out on his forehead.
"The dragon vein essence is worthy of being born from the dragon vein, and it contains tremendous energy."
Jiang Chen said happily as he felt the surging power in his body.
His current realm has reached the late innate stage, and he is only a step away from the refining stage.
However, he clearly felt that breaking through the bottleneck of the Void Refining Stage seemed to be within reach.
"It is indeed a treasure left behind by a Tianyuan Realm expert."
The effect of the dragon vein was better than he expected.
"I want to thank you for helping me regain my freedom."
Just when Jiang Chen was excited, the Dragon Emperor's teasing laughter was heard.
"not good."
Jiang Chen's face changed slightly, and he immediately got up and prepared to escape.
But, it was too late.
The Dragon Emperor's soul appeared behind him, opened his mouth wide, and spit out a cloud of gray mist that filled the air.
Jiang Chen had difficulty breathing, his vision became increasingly blurry, his consciousness gradually faded, and he eventually fainted.
