Chapter 375: Chapter 91: Fallen Dragon Valley, the Fall of the True Dragon!

Lin Chen couldn’t help but smile as he recalled what Jiang Liqian had mentioned earlier.

"The soil nourished by dragon blood is spiritual soil... By spreading a thin layer on ordinary earth, it greatly benefits the growth of spirit plants!"

"Not only can it shorten the time required to cultivate spirit plants, but it can also enhance their quality."

Lin Chen carefully inspected the surroundings, ensuring that he hadn’t left behind anything of value, before turning to leave.

"I’ve hit the jackpot!"

"For me, and for the High Martial World, the value of this soil surpasses that of Dragon Spirit Grass!"

"Time is running out... I must dig up more Dragon Spirit Flowers and spiritual soil!"

Lin Chen silently calculated that he had less than ten hours before he had to leave this Secret Realm.

Otherwise, he would be wasting the favor from Elder Taoyao, which would be a great loss.

After leaving the basin, Lin Chen transformed into an escape light and continued a wide-ranging search for places abundant with Treasures of Heaven and Earth.

After understanding the patterns of the Defeated Dragon Forbidden Land, Lin Chen’s speed increased significantly.

In the next short six hours, he found five places teeming with Dragon Spirit Flowers.

He harvested more than twenty Dragon Spirit Flowers in total.

The Dragon Spirit Flowers were not the most critical.

More precious to Lin Chen were the dozens of Dragon Spirit Flower seeds and hundreds of tons of spiritual soil stained with dragon blood.

Lin Chen put away the nanobag filled with spiritual soil, murmuring to himself:

"Hundreds of tons of soil may sound like a lot... but it’s not very durable!"

"This spiritual soil is inherently much heavier than ordinary earth, so these hundreds of tons of soil are only about a dozen cubic meters... it’s far from enough."

Lin Chen shook his head.

With two hours remaining, Lin Chen wanted to excavate more Treasures of Heaven and Earth.

At that moment, the Mother-Child Sound Transmission Jade on Lin Chen’s body suddenly flickered.

He received a message from Jiang Liqian.

"Senior Brother Lin, I’ve discovered an unusual place... come quickly to assist..."

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up slightly as he looked at the address on the Sound Transmission Jade, and without hesitation, he rushed over.

...

Half an hour later.

Lin Chen arrived at the location Jiang Liqian had mentioned.

It was a massive valley with towering mountain ranges on either side, reaching several hundred zhang in height.

Between the mountains lay a slightly sunken blood-colored plain.

Jiang Liqian was waiting at the entrance of the valley for Lin Chen.

"Senior Brother Lin, you finally made it!"

Jiang Liqian was delighted to see Lin Chen.

Lin Chen nodded and looked into the valley, frowning slightly.

"This dragon might... Junior Sister Jiang, did you explore this site?"

Jiang Liqian nodded and said:

"I just wandered around inside. This valley is different from other ruins... the dragon might here is too strong!"

"I only ventured a few dozen miles in and felt quite uncomfortable. I feared there might be demon beasts lurking within... so I called you to come along."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement, acknowledging that this valley was indeed different from the other sites he had found.

Just standing at the valley’s entrance, the dragon might was more than twice as strong as in the previous ruins.

Jiang Liqian’s expression was grave as she said:

"Senior Brother Lin, I suspect this valley is the actual Dragon Fall Land!"

"Perhaps, after the True Dragon’s death, most of its flesh rests here... otherwise, such potent pressure wouldn’t persist after tens of thousands of years!"

Lin Chen nodded at her words, once again scanning the valley with his gaze.

"So, Junior Sister Jiang, what do you think? Should we enter the valley to investigate?"

Jiang Liqian nodded firmly and said:

"The Dragon Fall Land, a rare encounter in ten thousand years... there must be unparalleled treasures hidden in this valley; there’s no reason not to go!"

With that, Jiang Liqian took off the jade pendant from her neck and handed it to Lin Chen.

"Senior Brother Lin, this jade pendant significantly diminishes the pressure; you should wear it before we head inside together."

Lin Chen frowned slightly and said:

"Junior Sister Jiang, you’re giving me the jade pendant... what will you use?"

Jiang Liqian chuckled lightly and flashed an object shaped like a seal quickly before Lin Chen’s eyes.

"Don’t worry, Senior Brother Lin, I have other protective items."

Lin Chen nodded, and the two of them walked into the valley together.

...

As soon as they stepped into the valley, Lin Chen felt the pressure on his body abruptly increase.

The further they went into the valley, the stronger the dragon might became.

It took them fifteen minutes to travel nearly a hundred miles into the valley.

All along the way, the air was silent, not to mention any signs of life.

At this point, the pressure from the dragon might was more than three times stronger than what they had experienced in previous explorations of ruins.

Fortunately, with the jade pendant Jiang Liqian had given him as protection, Lin Chen didn’t feel too uncomfortable.

After traversing another hundred miles, their pace slowed considerably.

By now, the dragon might within the valley was extremely powerful.

Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian had to constantly channel their True Essence Magical Power to resist the dragon might.

"Junior Sister Jiang, are you holding up?" Lin Chen asked.

Jiang Liqian nodded and said, "I’m managing... but I wonder how large this valley is? Our Divine Sense is being suppressed... we must hurry."

So, the two picked up their pace again, advancing another hundred miles.

...

In the depths, three hundred miles into the Fallen Dragon Valley.

Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian continued to press forward.

Suddenly, Lin Chen sensed a magnificent red glow, just a thousand zhang away.

Jiang Liqian and Lin Chen exchanged glances.

"We’re close. Such a large area of red light... there must be Treasures of Heaven and Earth!"

Lin Chen’s expression was slightly excited.

So the two climbed another hill.

By this point, both Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian bore immense pressure; every step forward exerted considerable strain on their True Essence and flesh bodies.

Finally, after cresting the hill.

Lin Chen saw, in the distance, red glimmers scattered like starlight across the land.

It’s the Dragon Spirit Flowers!

So many Dragon Spirit Flowers!

Three or five stalks clustered together, with one cluster every few dozen feet.

At a glance, there seem to be at least a thousand clusters in this valley...

That’s thousands of Dragon Spirit Flowers!

And the deeper into the valley, the more Dragon Spirit Flowers there are...

"Junior Sister Jiang."

Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian exchanged a glance, both seeing delight in each other’s eyes.

"Senior Brother Lin, we don’t have much time left... should we split up?" Jiang Liqian asked.

"Alright!"

So the two headed forward together.

Despite each step being under immense pressure, they couldn’t resist the allure of these Dragon Spirit Flowers!

At this moment, Lin Chen seemed to be filled with endless energy, moving forward another few dozen feet.

After picking several Dragon Spirit Flowers, he looked over at Jiang Liqian in the distance.

Seeing Jiang Liqian also saving time, picking flowers and instantly moving to the next area.

"Tsk tsk, Junior Sister Jiang is wasting too much like this..." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Lin Chen slightly shook his head, sighing lightly in his heart.

After picking Dragon Spirit Flowers, Lin Chen dug out the surrounding Spiritual Soil and seeds, satisfied before heading to the next spot.

One stalk, five stalks, ten stalks!

In just a short moment, Lin Chen picked dozens of Dragon Spirit Flowers.

His Nanobag contained nearly a thousand tons of Spiritual Soil.

Lin Chen used the Earth Escape Technique to bring his soil digging skills to the fullest.

In the distance, Jiang Liqian had already picked nearly a hundred Dragon Spirit Flowers. When she looked toward Lin Chen, she grimaced.

"Digging three feet into the ground, not even sparing the dirt..."

Jiang Liqian blinked and gained a new understanding of Lin Chen.

The two were so happily busy until half a two-hour period later.

The Spiritual Soil in Lin Chen’s Nanobag had already exceeded three thousand tons.

He had also dug nearly two hundred Dragon Spirit Flowers...

At this moment, the two simultaneously chose to stop and prepare to explore deeper into the valley.

"Senior Brother Lin, there are too many Dragon Spirit Flowers... we don’t have enough time to dig them all up!"

"How about... we go deeper to have a look?"

Jiang Liqian came over, asking for Lin Chen’s opinion.

Lin Chen reluctantly put away the last piece of Spiritual Soil and nodded:

"Okay, then let’s take a look deeper in."

So the two walked several hundred feet deeper, with Lin Chen slightly frowning.

"Wait, something seems off around here..."

Lin Chen’s ears twitched, scanning the surroundings warily.

Although his Divine Sense was suppressed by the dragon’s might, Lin Chen’s unique Martial Artist senses still let him notice something was wrong.

Lin Chen tried to glance deep into the valley.

But there seemed to be a red mist in the valley, making it hard to see clearly.

Lin Chen signaled a retreating gesture, Jiang Liqian understood and moved back.

At this moment, a shadow suddenly darted past the two.

"Run!"

Lin Chen shouted, grabbing Jiang Liqian and sprinting.

Boom!

All of a sudden, the dragon’s might in the valley intensified.

Jiang Liqian’s body stiffened, her face turning a lot paler.

Lin Chen frowned tightly, silently benefitting from an addition of power.

Candle Dragon’s power!

As the Candle Dragon’s power activated, the terrifying dragon’s might in the valley vanished instantly!

True Dragon?

In front of Zhu Jiuyin, mere True Dragon is nothing!

With no dragon’s might suppression, Lin Chen ran quickly, directly picking Jiang Liqian up and headed for the valley’s entrance.

Running over a hundred miles non-stop, Lin Chen gradually slowed down and stopped.

"Senior Brother Lin, um... could you put me down first?"

Jiang Liqian blinked, her pretty face slightly red looking at Lin Chen.

Only then did Lin Chen notice his hugging posture was too intimate.

"Ahem..."

Gently putting Jiang Liqian down, Lin Chen said awkwardly:

"Ahem, are you okay, Junior Sister Jiang?"

Jiang Liqian shook her head, but a peculiar expression flashed in her eyes.

"Senior Brother Lin’s Body Refining Cultivation is strong... probably rivaling Nascent Soul Cultivators, right?"

Lin Chen did not deny, only chuckled awkwardly to cover it up.

In that urgent moment earlier, Lin Chen revealed strength comparable to early Nascent Soul level.

"Junior Sister Jiang, we shouldn’t stay here for long..."

Lin Chen hadn’t finished speaking when suddenly, there was a change in the sky.

A shadow flashed past the two again, astonishingly fast.

"Bullet Time!"

This time, Lin Chen saw clearly.

It was a flying serpent!

A black flying serpent, its snake head faintly growing horns, snake scales flashing with mysterious patterns...

Lin Chen and Jiang Liqian exchanged a glance, both their eyes flashing with a serious look.

"It’s the aura of a Fourth Tier Demon Beast!" Jiang Liqian said softly, a flash of light from her Magical Treasure appeared in her hand.

Lin Chen solemnly nodded, adding:

"It’s a serpent-type Demon Beast... but it seems to have stayed in this Fallen Dragon Valley for too long, infected by True Dragon’s aura."

"It seems to be showing signs of Flood Dragon Transformation..."

Lin Chen glanced around, slightly frowning.

"Strange, where did that demon snake go..."

The valley was vast with no trees for cover, that demon snake couldn’t just disappear.

Suddenly, Lin Chen sensed something.

"It’s underground!"
