Chapter 254: Chapter 168: Exploring the Ruins, Discovering the Spirit Dragon, Shocking Appearance of a True Immortal in the Body Integration Realm! (5k)

Su Xing felt a bit excited at this moment.

Finally, could he see what was really inside this ancient tomb?

“Clearly, it is an era of spiritual energy depletion… why is there such astonishing spiritual energy in this ancient tomb?”

Su Xing’s heart was filled with doubt, his gaze fixed on the simulation panel.

[You broke into the core area of the ancient tomb, an invisible formation barrier appeared in front of you, seemingly isolating the inside and outside worlds.]

[The living dead puppet behind you continued to chase relentlessly.]

[Without any hesitation, you punched directly at the formation barrier.]

[But this formation barrier was incredibly strong. The force of your punch only made it tremble and shudder but did not break it.]

[So you took a deep breath, infused your fists with Origin Force, and launched another punch!]

[The power of this punch was astounding. The entire ancient tomb trembled, and rubble fell from the stone walls.]

[The invisible formation barrier in front of you shattered layer by layer like a spider web before collapsing completely.]

[In an instant, an incomparably dense spiritual energy surged toward you, and you saw the core area inside the formation.]

[Unlike the thin spiritual energy in the outer tomb passages, the concentration of spiritual energy here was almost comparable to that of your Spirit Field Cave!]

[Looking ahead, a vast herb field at least five or six acres wide stretched out.]

[Many spiritual medicines were planted in the herb field, and with just one glance, you discerned their preciousness, even higher in quality than those in the Descending Sect treasury.]

[What excited you even more was that these spiritual medicines were all over three thousand years old!]

[These were incredibly rare Heaven and Earth Treasures that could be used to refine top-quality elixirs!]

[In the herb field, several bronze-colored, nude figures seemed to be tending the herbs.]

[Your heart was astounded; could these people be ancient cultivators who had lived for thousands of years?]

[But upon further sensing, you discovered that these figures were all living dead puppets.]

[However, they were not combat puppets but seemed to be specifically designed for tending the herb field.]

[You quickly scanned the ruins with your divine sense but did not find any trace of Gathering Spirit Flowers.]

[Puzzled, you thought that such dense spiritual energy must have required thousands of Gathering Spirit Flowers to achieve.]

[But your divine sense eventually noticed something unusual…]

[Ahead of the herb field, there was a massive stone platform, ten zhang in length, width, and height.]

[This stone platform was ancient and extraordinary, seemingly forged from some rare mineral.]

[Atop the stone platform lay a massive bronze coffin, three zhang long and two zhang wide.]

[A lush green dragon was carved on the bronze coffin, its claw beneath a vast forest, brimming with vitality.]

[Beneath the bronze coffin lay a small white jade dragon, its body encircled with black qi!]

[Yes, this was the first time you had seen a mythical creature like a dragon.]

[This white jade-like dragon was three zhang long, with a camel-like head, deer antlers, rabbit eyes, and snake neck, covered entirely in scales as white as jade…]

[Your divine sense scanned the dragon, which responded to your presence with sad cries.]

[Puzzled, you sensed that it did not seem to be a creature of flesh and blood.]

[You sensed it carefully again, realizing that although its aura was weak, its entire body radiated incredible spiritual energy…]

[This spiritual energy even surpassed that of the Spirit Field Cave!]

[A bold idea arose in your mind: you had read about a special creature called Spirit Vein Dragon in ancient texts…]

[It seemed that this white jade-like dragon in front of you was the spiritual embodiment formed by the aggregation of spirit veins…]

Su Xing was immensely shocked and overjoyed at this sight.

Memories flashed through his mind.

He had read about the Spirit Vein Dragon in the Luo Tian Sect’s Scripture Pavilion.

Spirit Stones were mined from spirit veins, which were limited…

Spirit Stones came in four grades: inferior, medium, superior, and supreme, as did spirit veins.

It was rumored that when the spiritual energy in a supreme spirit vein became dense enough, a Spirit Vein Dragon would be born!

Wherever the Spirit Dragon was, the spiritual power was inexhaustible.

It was the supreme treasure that countless cultivators dreamed of!

If one could win the favor of a Spirit Dragon, they would have an endless supply of Spirit Stones, propelling them to the top.

Another legend said…

There were once nine incredibly powerful Spirit Vein Dragons in the Three Thousand Worlds, continuously supplying spiritual power to the entire world.

The disappearance of these nine Spirit Dragons caused a great calamity, leading to the depletion of spiritual energy…

Countless fragments of memories flashed through Su Xing’s mind at this moment.

Despite his steady heart, having passed the five tribulations of Divinity Transformation, Su Xing could not help but feel his greed surge, his eyes turning red.

This was a Spirit Vein Dragon!

Even if it was just a juvenile dragon, weak and enveloped in black qi.

But obtaining this Spirit Dragon was akin to acquiring the supreme treasure of the heavens and earth!

The Great Dao of immortality was right before his eyes!

Thinking this made Su Xing’s breath grow heavy.

Su Xing took several deep breaths to barely calm his excitement.

Suppressing his greed, Su Xing could not help but raise a question.

“Why did a mythical creature like a Spirit Dragon appear in this ancient tomb?”

Su Xing could not understand; this was a Spirit Dragon!

With this creature, how could the world of the Xianwu Era deplete its spiritual energy and decline?

With this curiosity, Su Xing looked at the simulation panel.
