Chapter 713 You're Lucky
"You're lucky this time."
The Dragon Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. His soul body was very fragile and needed rest.
Buzz~
Just as the Dragon Emperor was about to evacuate, he suddenly sensed something, turned his head and his pupils shrank slightly.
Next to Jiang Chen, a figure wearing armor appeared.
The owner of this figure was the person who had just been attacked by him.
"You saved me?" the Dragon Emperor asked in surprise.
He didn't expect Jiang Chen's willpower to be so strong. He didn't lose his mind and remained sober even in such a situation, otherwise he would be in trouble.
Jiang Chen did not answer because his consciousness was confused and he fell into a deep coma.
"I'll kill you later."
The Dragon Emperor snorted coldly and floated to the side of the dragon vein essence.
He had cultivated these dragon vein essences painstakingly for hundreds of years to gain this energy.
As a result, it was stolen by Jiang Chen, and the Dragon Emperor was naturally furious.
"Since you have obtained the dragon vein essence, I can only destroy you."
The Dragon Emperor muttered, extending a sharp claw and grabbing Jiang Chen.
Not only did he want to destroy the dragon vein, he also wanted to kill Jiang Chen to vent his anger.
Buzz buzz buzz.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed between Jiang Chen's eyebrows, and a rune slowly emerged, revealing a mysterious and obscure aura.
"Um?!"
The Dragon Emperor's expression changed slightly, and he quickly withdrew his hand, staring at Jiang Chen warily.
"What is that?"
Soon, he discovered that the rune between Jiang Chen's eyebrows vaguely looked like something.
Taking a closer look, the Dragon Emperor discovered that it was a jade pendant carved with intricate patterns.
"This is……"
The Dragon King recognized what it was and his eyes widened in disbelief.
“How is this possible!!”
"That's the Dragon Emperor's personal belongings!"
The Dragon Emperor's voice trembled with excitement.
"I was originally the mount of the Dragon Emperor. He gave me a name, the Dragon Emperor!"
"Back then, the entire dragon clan migrated to Nanzhou. We thought the Dragon Emperor would be buried in the Nanman Mountains. Unexpectedly, the dragon vein essence failed to kill him, but was taken away by him instead."
"I originally thought that if I could escape from this trap one day, I would be able to find an opportunity and break out of the cage."
"It seems that we still underestimated the power of the Dragon Emperor!"
The Dragon Emperor murmured, his tone revealing a strong sense of envy and jealousy.
"The essence of the dragon vein has been integrated by him."
Suddenly, the Dragon Emperor thought of something, his face became ferocious, and his brutal eyes were fixed on Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen felt a chill run down his spine as he felt a breath of death descend upon him.
"I'm not willing to accept this."
The Dragon Emperor sighed, and his soul disappeared into the cave.
.... ..
Jiang Chen slept for three days and three nights. When he woke up, he found himself in an unfamiliar environment.
There are many candlesticks hanging on the walls, and the dim light makes the whole cave look gloomy and terrifying.
"Where is this?" Jiang Chen looked around vigilantly.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen saw a person curled up in the corner.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Chen asked quickly.
Hearing this, the other party slowly raised his head.
Jiang Chen was shocked when he saw the pale and bloodless face.
"You saved me?"
Jiang Chen was surprised. He recognized who this person was.
It was the girl who was swallowed by the Dragon Emperor.
"Did you rescue me from the dragon's grave?"
The girl's hoarse voice sounded, and her eyes were filled with complex emotions.
When she knew that she had been swallowed by the Dragon Emperor, she felt despair.
Unexpectedly, I met a kind person.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Chen frowned.
The girl was wearing animal skins and walking barefoot on the stone road. Her walking posture was very strange, which made Jiang Chen puzzled.
"My name is Ye Xuan." The girl asked, "What's yours?"
"Jiang Chen." Jiang Chen introduced briefly.
"Are you here to explore the Dragon's Tomb?"
Ye Xuan looked at him curiously.
"I guess so." Jiang Chen nodded.
“You’re amazing.”
Ye Xuan admired and said: "You can definitely pass the Dragon Tomb."
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and did not explain anything. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "How did you get in?"
The reason why he was not swallowed was because he was strong enough.
Otherwise, you will surely die.
"I don't know either. I came here suddenly."
When talking about this matter, Ye Xuan's face was full of confusion and helplessness.
"Were you eaten by the Dragon King?" Jiang Chen guessed.
Ye Xuan's eyes widened with a look of horror.
"I was sealed here by the Dragon Emperor."
After Ye Xuan said this, her eyes became moist.
"So that's how it is. Let's get out of here quickly." Jiang Chen said.
"No, although I can tell you a secret."
Ye Xuan said.
"What secret?"
"The Dragon Emperor is not the ancestor of the True Dragon Clan."
Ye Xuan said: "It's fake."
"Fake?!"
Jiang Chen's heart trembled.
"Yes, I heard Longmai say this with my own ears. Longmai is fake." Ye Xuan said.
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and was shocked.
"We, the dragon race, are the darlings of heaven and earth. We are born with innate advantages."
"And this secret is related to our innate advantages. The dragon vein is a fake dragon vein and has survived for tens of millions of years."
“The dragon vein is not the ancestor of the true dragon clan, but a special mineral vein that can form an independent world.”
"Our dragon ancestors placed the dragon vein here, and with the help of its spirituality, they cultivated to become immortals."
"However, the spiritual energy of the dragon vein is constantly dissipating and can no longer support the growth of the dragon clan."
After listening to the Dragon Emperor's story, Jiang Chen finally understood what the dragon vein was.
Dragon veins are a type of mineral vein that allows dragons to grow while nourishing the dragon vein essence, making it purer.
The dragon vein is a magical life that does not belong to this continent.
"We, the dragon race, have a long history. Tens of millions of years ago, we once ruled this land, but were later driven away and drifted outside."
"Now, there are many dragon veins on this continent. They are all our people. They are trapped and cannot leave this island."
Having said that, the Dragon Emperor paused and his eyes fell on Jiang Chen.
"Could it be that the dragon vein is the key?" Jiang Chen pondered.
The Dragon Emperor nodded in appreciation. He was not wrong about Jiang Chen. He was a smart young man.
"The dragon vein contains extremely powerful power, but unfortunately we dragons are not good at refining and cannot absorb it."
The Dragon Emperor said this with a tone full of regret, "However, your swordsmanship is very advanced, so you should be able to absorb the power of the dragon vein."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen felt dizzy.
"How to absorb the power of the dragon vein?"
"You need to study this. I don't really understand it. I just know that dragon veins are a kind of energy. Only by absorbing it can we become stronger."
"I understand." Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully.
"How many times have you entered the Dragon Tomb?" the Dragon Emperor suddenly asked.
Jiang Chen shook his head. He had not had time to think about this question.
"The Dragon Tomb is filled with dangers. If you are not careful, you will be beheaded. You are lucky to be alive."
The Dragon Emperor laughed.
