While Others are Leveling Up, I Alone Will Cultivate Until Mahayana Before Making My Move

"It is clearly the end of an era where Spiritual Energy is exhausted... Why is there such astonishing Spiritual Energy within the ancient tomb\'s remains?"

With confusion in his heart, Su Xing\'s gaze turned towards the simulation panel.

[You have entered the core area of the ancient tomb\'s remains, and an invisible Formation barrier has appeared before you, seemingly cutting off the inside from the outside world.]

[The Living Dead Puppets are still relentlessly pursuing you from behind.]

[Without the slightest hesitation, you threw a punch directly at the Formation barrier.]

[But the Formation barrier was exceptionally sturdy, and your punch only made it tremble and quake without breaking through.]

[So you took a deep breath, channeled Origin Force into both fists, and launched another punch!]

[The power of this punch was astonishing. In an instant, the entire ancient tomb was shaking, and shards of stone slipped from the stone walls.]

[And the invisible Formation barrier before your eyes shattered like a spider web, eventually collapsing and breaking apart.]

[Throughout, an incredibly dense Spiritual Energy rushed towards you, and you could finally see the core area within the Formation of the ancient remains.]

[Unlike the sparse Spiritual Energy in the catacombs of the outside world, the richness of the energy here almost matched that of your Spirit Field Cave!]

[Looking ahead, there was a vast medicinal field, at least five or six acres wide.]

[Numerous varieties of spiritual herbs were planted in the medicinal field, which at a mere glance, you recognized as precious, even of higher quality than those in the Descending Sect\'s treasury.]

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

[They were immensely precious treasures, capable of being refined into high-grade elixirs!]

[Amidst the medicinal field were several figures, bronze-skinned and bare, seemingly tending to the field.]

[Amazed, you wondered if these people were great cultivators who had lived for thousands of years?]

[But after sensing for a while, you discovered that these figures were all Living Dead Puppets.]

[However, they were not combat-type puppets but appeared to be specialized in tending to the medicinal field.]

[You swept the area with your Divine Sense but did not detect any traces of the Gathering Spirit Flower.]

[Puzzled, you knew that such rich Spiritual Energy would require at least several thousand strands of the Gathering Spirit Flower to achieve.]

[Nonetheless, your Divine Sense eventually recognized something extraordinary...]

[In front of the medicinal field was a huge stone platform measuring thirty feet in length, width, and height.]

[This stone platform was simple and extraordinary, seemingly constructed from some sort of rare ore.]

[Atop the platform rested a vast bronze coffin, thirty feet long and twenty feet wide.]

[On the coffin was carved a lush and vigorous green dragon; beneath its claws were vast forests that appeared to be thriving with life.]

[And beneath the bronze coffin was a dragonet, white as jade, twisted in black qi, which seemed to suppress it!]

[Yes, this was your first encounter with dragons, creatures from myths.]

[This white, jade-like dragonet was thirty feet long... with a camel\'s head, deer antlers, rabbit eyes, and snake neck, its body covered with scales as pure and white as jade...]

[Your Divine Sense swept over the dragonet, and feeling your presence, it let out a series of mournful cries.]

[Confused, you sensed that this was not a creature of flesh and blood.]

[After another careful sensing, you realized that although the dragon\'s aura was weak, it exuded astonishing Spiritual Energy...]

[This Spiritual Energy was even more potent than that within the Cave Heaven!]

[A bold idea began to take shape in your mind; you had read about a special creature called the Spirit Vein Dragon in ancient texts...]

[It seemed that this white, jade-like dragonet before you was a spiritual creature formed by the convergence of Spirit Veins...]

Su Xing\'s eyes shimmered with shock and joy at this sight.

Memories flashed through his mind.

He had once seen an introduction to Spirit Vein Dragons in the Luo Tian Sect\'s Scripture Pavilion.

Spirit Stones were mined from Spirit Veins, and Spirit Veins were finite...

Spirit Stones were classified into inferior, medium, superior, and top grades; naturally, Spirit Veins were also divided into these four levels.

Legend had it that once the Spiritual Energy of a top-grade Spirit Vein reached a certain concentration, it would give birth to a creature known as the Spirit Vein Dragon!

Wherever the Spirit Dragon resided, the Spiritual Power was inexhaustible.

It was the supreme treasure that countless cultivators longed for!

If one could win the favor of a Spirit Dragon, they could have endless Spirit Stones and ascend to great heights with ease.

And in another legend...

It was said that there were nine mighty Spirit Vein Dragons in the Three Thousand Worlds, which continuously supplied the entire world with Spiritual Power.

The reason for the end of the era, the depletion of Spiritual Energy, was the disappearance of these nine dragons...

At this moment, countless memories flashed through Su Xing\'s mind.

Even with Su Xing\'s calmness from surviving the five stages of Divinity Transformation, he couldn\'t help but be overrun by greed, his eyes reddening.

This was a Spirit Vein Dragon, after all!

Even if it was merely a juvenile, weak and emaciated, even if shrouded in black qi.

By obtaining the Spirit Dragon, Su Xing would come into possession of one of the most supreme treasures in the world!

The path to immortality, right before his eyes!

Thinking this, Su Xing\'s breathing became heavy with excitement.

After taking several deep breaths, Su Xing managed to calm his excited emotions.

Suppressing the greed in his heart, Su Xing began to ponder a question.

"Why would there be a dragon, a creature from legends, in these ancient tomb remains?"

He didn\'t understand; this was a dragon, after all!

With this creature, why would the world of the Xianwu Era still experience depletion of Spiritual Energy and approach the end of the era?

With such curiosity, Su Xing\'s gaze returned to the simulation panel.
