“Whew…”
A biting wind swept through the area, leaving everyone feeling chilled to the bone and utterly uncomfortable.
“How come it feels like the temperature is dropping? Logically, we’ve been in the Arctic for half a day now, our bodies should have gotten used to it by now!” Kevin added.
Gerard didn’t speak, but he certainly felt the same way.
Since arriving in the valley, I’ve noticed the temperature dropping and a strong wind blowing.
This group of people were much stronger than the average person, but even they found it hard to resist the cold.
“Whoosh…”
At that moment, another gust of cold wind swept through.
Many people couldn’t bear it and cried out.
“My God, it’s so cold!”
“I’ll never come to this godforsaken place again in my life!”
“How much longer do I have to wait here! At this rate, I’ll probably freeze to death like the ghoul Rosa!”
Everyone was complaining bitterly.
No one noticed, on the snow-covered ground outside the valley, a great change was taking place!
The originally flat expanse of white snow was slowly starting to rise.
Under the heavy snow, something seems to be about to break through the ground!
……
After Fang Yu entered the cave, it was a pitch-black passage, dark as night.
From this perspective, the passage is consistently downward.
At first, the angle of inclination was normal. But as we went deeper, the passage became increasingly steep.
The entire passage is nearly straight down.
Fang Yu simply didn’t walk close to the ground, letting his body fall freely downwards like a freefall.
After falling for more than a minute, Fang Yu stepped back onto the ground.
At this time, Fang Yu came to a spacious place.
The light in front is still very faint.
But a vein of blue light was just fifty meters ahead.
Fang Yu’s eyes lit up as he walked forward, approaching the spiritual vein.
This spirit vein is at least ten meters wide and stretches forward for nearly a hundred meters!
Judging from this visual effect, it’s more than three times larger than the spiritual vein found on Mount Hakagawa back then!
Three times!
If Fang Yu completely absorbed this spiritual vein, he would steadily break through to the 10,000th layer of the Qi Refining Period!
At the end of Fang Yu Ling’s meridians, she crouched down and observed carefully.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that this spiritual vein was different from the one he had found in Baichuan Mountain before.
The surface of this vein is covered with many lines that shimmer with a faint golden light.
These lines divide the surface of the meridians into a series of regular rhombi, which resemble scales.
This is rather peculiar.
Fang Yu continued to observe, discovering that the section of spirit vein before him was not the end of the entire spirit vein.
It seems there’s more, extending deeper into the earth!
Such a massive spiritual vein, if it were placed thousands of years ago, could support ten first-grade sects!
Fang Yu was very excited.
But he was still a little doubtful about these spiritual vein surface scale-like things.
According to his understanding, such things shouldn’t appear on the spirit veins.
Fang Yu pressed his right hand against the surface of the meridian, feeling a surge of heat.
At the same time, he could sense the vast spiritual energy contained within it.
No matter what the external form of this spirit vein is, as long as it contains spiritual energy, then it is a qualified spirit vein.
Fang Yu no longer thought much about it. He pressed his right hand on the hot surface of the spiritual vein and circulated the Devouring Spirit Art.
A red vortex of light appeared on his right hand.
According to the last experience, it should be able to absorb a large amount of high-intensity spiritual energy into the body very quickly.
But this time, things are entirely different!
The moment Fang Yu started running the Spirit Devouring Scripture, his face changed.
Between his right hand and his meridians, there seemed to be an unbreakable barrier.
He is unable to absorb spiritual energy from the Spirit Vein!
What’s going on?!
Fang Yu frowned, looking down at the azure-glowing spiritual vein.
At this moment, the golden glimmer emanating from the scales on its surface became even more brilliant.
“Could this be…”
A sudden idea flashed through Fang Yu’s mind.
“Boom!”
Just then, the ground beneath his feet burst apart with a deafening roar!
The subterranean spiritual vein, extending deep underground, suddenly burst forth from the earth and soared into the air, lashing out at Fang Yu with a powerful force!
“Bang!”
Fang Yu was directly smashed dozens of meters away and crashed into the hard rock wall.
But this ‘vein’ of energy wasn’t finished yet, it lashed out towards Fang Yu’s location once more!
“Boom!”
Another wave of intense roaring echoed.
Fang Yu was struck again, his whole body sinking deep into the rock wall.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
This ‘vein’ seemed incredibly angry, wildly thrashing its tail and smashing towards Fang Yu.
The entire underground space was shaking.
Su Lengyun, who was waiting beside the cave entrance, heard the roar coming from below and her expression changed slightly.
Su Lengyun walked to the entrance of the cave and peered inside.
She knew something must have happened down there, but she would listen to Fang Yu.
Without Fang Yu’s command, she couldn’t go down.
“Brother Yu…”
Su Lengyun stood at the entrance of the cave, some worry in her beautiful eyes.
……
At this moment, Fang Yu’s expression was blank.
He was stuck deep within the rock face, staring blankly ahead.
The “spirit vein” that was originally half-buried in the ground, is now flying completely!
Yes, this pulse measuring nearly a hundred meters in length and over ten meters wide just rose into the air!
When the head and abdomen of this ‘spiritual vein’ appeared, Fang Yu completely understood.
This… isn’t a spirit vein at all!
This seems… to be a dragon!
Fang Yu felt a little dizzy.
A great meridian, how did it become a dragon?
Mingming’s features, besides the scales on its surface, are identical to those of the previously found Spiritual Vein!
Fang Yu could feel the immense spiritual energy contained within it, but he couldn’t sense its life force!
How could this be a dragon? <<<
Fang Yu was at a loss.
He lived for nearly five thousand years and should have known most things in the world.
To unexpectedly encounter such a creature that vanished tens of thousands of years ago, Fang Yu’s knowledge base was truly a blank slate!
He didn’t know what kind of dragon this was, nor why it looked so much like a spiritual vein!
Could it be that a spirit vein, existing for many years, would automatically cultivate into a living being? Become a dragon?
This is too outrageous, completely contradicting the knowledge Fang Yu had previously encountered.
“Roar…”
At this moment, the dragon, whose entire body was glowing with blue light, turned its head towards Fang Yu and opened its huge mouth, letting out a deafening roar.
The power of sound waves alone is enough to pulverize even the hardest stones!
Fang Yu looked at the creature before him. Its whole body seemed to be crystal clear and translucent, emitting a blue light. Confusion still filled his eyes.
What’s going on?
And at this moment, the dragon opened its mouth wide, condensing a ball of blue energy within!
The next second, energy shot toward Fang Yu!
“Boom!”
Fang Yu was enveloped by the energy beam, being blasted deeper into its depths.
The intense spiritual energy contained within this beam would be enough to shatter a mountain a kilometer high if released outside.
“Does this dragon still look angry?”
Fang Yu emerged from the deep rock crevice, standing on the ground and watching the raging “spirit vein” outside.
“Let’s just call you Linglong.” Fang Yu said.
“Roar…”
It seems Fang Yu hasn’t died yet. Linglong roared again, opening its mouth wide towards Fang Yu, ready to launch another attack.
“If you were to extinguish your vitality, wouldn’t you become a true spirit vein?” Fang Yu looked at the spiritual dragon outside and narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Bang!”
Fang Yu kicked the ground and charged towards Ling Long!
……
“It seems it’s out now.”
Outside the cave entrance, a figure descended from the sky.
Su Lengyun’s expression changed, and she immediately turned around to look at the figure falling from the sky.
Upon seeing the strange man’s appearance, Su Lengyun’s expression changed.
The weirdo glanced at Su Lengyun, but ignored her and walked towards the cave entrance.
As long as the dragon leaves its lair for a while, I can succeed.
The strange man was about to enter the cave.
“Who are you?” Su Lengyun asked, her face solemn.
She was sure this odd man wasn’t one of the Dark List experts from before.
“I am… the way of the gods.” The monster’s tone was cold and sinister, though his entire face was wrapped in bandages, one could clearly sense the arrogant smirk playing on his lips as he spoke.
After he spoke, the self-proclaimed deity stepped toward the cave entrance.
No matter how you look at it, this strange man cannot be a good person.
Su Lengyun couldn’t let him go, blocking Fang Yu.
Su Lengyun extended her right hand and activated the Water Spirit Ring.
She urged the moisture in the air, trying to freeze the monster solid.
At this moment, the strange man suddenly turned around and extended his right hand towards Su Lengyun.
