Chapter 359: Chapter 358 Dragon Vein

Time passed, minute by minute.

Lin Fan gradually fused three Soul Eyes.

But the next moment, just as Lin Fan was preparing to continue fusing the Soul Eyes, he realized all the energy had vanished!

Exiting his cultivation state and opening his eyes, Lin Fan saw that the Seven Dragon Balls above Ness Lake had disappeared.

Ness Lake had returned to normal.

And the Sea Demons above the surface of Ness Lake... had fallen asleep.

"It seems that the special energy released from the Seven Dragon Balls not only affects me, but it also has a certain influence on those Sea Demons. It’s even likely that the reason those Sea Demons are so powerful is because they benefitted from the Seven Dragon Balls!"

For a moment, Lin Fan’s heart filled with anticipation!

He was extremely eager to obtain the Seven Dragon Balls.

Lin Fan was clear that the Seven Dragon Balls were a supreme treasure; even obtaining one of them would probably bring a heaven-defying opportunity...

But soon, Lin Fan helplessly shook his head.

Such supreme treasures like the Seven Dragon Balls were incredibly difficult to obtain.

Not to mention other aspects, just Ness Lake alone was something Lin Fan could not unravel.

Although Lin Fan knew that Ness Lake was an Illusion Array, he couldn’t find the weak points of the array and thus was unable to break it...

Afterwards, Lin Fan resumed his cultivation.

Having just fused three Soul Eyes, his cultivation had improved, and Lin Fan also gained many insights. Now, Lin Fan’s cultivation was to assimilate these insights, while also improving his understanding of the Martial Path...

After cultivating for a long period, Lin Fan had finally stabilized his cultivation!

"Heh..."

At that moment, a light laughter sounded.

The laughter was very pleasant, carrying a sunny quality that made one feel comfortable at once!

But...

Upon hearing this laughter, Lin Fan instantly felt the hairs on his entire body stand on end.

Lin Fan knew that there were supposed to be no people around the area of Ness Lake.

But now...

A human laughter had emerged.

Instinct told Lin Fan that something was definitely amiss!

Lin Fan opened his eyes!

Immediately, Lin Fan saw a young man standing not far away, smiling at him.

Lin Fan braced himself, mobilizing all the energy he could in case the other made a move, Lin Fan would not hesitate to strike first.

"Hehe!"

The young man watched all of Lin Fan’s movements.

Then, after another smile, he said, "Friend, no need to be nervous, I mean no harm!"

Having said that, the young man paused slightly and seriously said, "I’m telling the truth, I really do not have any malicious intentions, really..."

Lin Fan stared at the young man, slightly relaxing, and his expression also eased a bit. Lin Fan felt that perhaps the other party indeed had no malice, otherwise if the other party had attacked while he was cultivating, he might not have been able to defend himself.

However, Lin Fan only relaxed slightly and did not fully let his guard down.

Because Lin Fan was aware that the area was filled with strangeness and a slight mistake could lead to his direct demise here...

"Who are you?"

Lin Fan asked in a deep voice.

"Oh!"

The man came back to his senses and smilingly said, "It’s all my fault for not introducing myself earlier, let me introduce myself. My name is Liang Yu, from the Daliang Dynasty!"

"You are from the Daliang Dynasty?"

Lin Fan’s brows slightly furrowed and asked, "Are you part of the Royal Family?"

The surname Liang was indeed the royal surname of the Daliang Dynasty!

Therefore, Lin Fan naturally thought this person in front of him was from the Daliang Dynasty’s Royal Family.

"Hehe!"

Liang Yu chuckled again and then shook his head, "Actually, it’s not really royal; just a collateral branch of the Royal Family."

Following that, Liang Yu paused for a moment, then asked, "By the way, how did you get here, brother?"

Lin Fan naturally would not tell Liang Yu the truth, as Lin Fan was not sure how much of what Liang Yu said was true.

Later, Lin Fan said, "I also came here by a random chance. By the way, how did you get here?"

"Sigh!"

Liang Yu sighed helplessly and said, "Honestly, we... are trapped here!"

"Trapped here?"

Lin Fan was taken aback, asking, "How did you get trapped here?"

Liang Yu gave a helpless smile and said, "It’s rather embarrassing, but we don’t even know how we got trapped here. We simply fell asleep, and when we woke up, we found ourselves in this place, unable to leave no matter what we tried. It’s as if this place has been completely isolated from the outside world!"

Lin Fan nodded and said, "So, it seems you have been trapped here for quite a while."

Liang Yu said, "If I remember correctly, we have been trapped here for over thirty years."

"Over thirty years?"

Lin Fan was astonished!

The Liang Yu in front of him didn’t seem that old, yet he had been trapped here for over thirty years.

It seems that appearances truly can be deceiving!

Liang Yu said, "By the way, it looks like you are alone. Why not come and rest with us? Although it’s a bit monotonous to cultivate here, it’s still quite enjoyable!"

Lin Fan asked, "There are others with you?"

Liang Yu said, "There are more than ten of us!"

"Alright!"

Lin Fan was somewhat surprised. He originally thought that no one could reach the surroundings of Ness Lake, yet surprisingly, there were more than ten people around.

The next moment, Lin Fan suddenly thought of something and asked again, "Earlier, you mentioned you’ve been trapped here for over thirty years. Have you really never thought about leaving?"

"Heh..."

Liang Yu gave a wry smile and said, "How could we not think about leaving? We have been trying to find a way out every moment, using various methods. Unfortunately, no matter what method we use, we remain trapped here, unable to escape."

"Over time, we resigned ourselves to our fate and could only stay here."

There was a tone of desolation in Liang Yu’s voice.

After listening to Liang Yu, Lin Fan thought to himself, "If what he says is true, and he means no harm, maybe I can take them with me when I leave."

Lin Fan was not worried about not being able to leave because he possessed the Universal Image.

When the time comes, he just needs to activate the navigation function of the Universal Image, and he can leave...

Liang Yu then said, "Come on, let’s go rest at our place. We have carved out Cave Mansions here since we were trapped for over thirty years. In these mansions, one can absorb the power of the Seven Dragon Balls closely without being chased by Sea Demons. It’s always better to be there than here!"

"Okay!"

Lin Fan nodded without hesitation.

Then, Lin Fan and Liang Yu walked in a certain direction together.

Of course, Lin Fan didn’t truly trust him. At this point, Lin Fan was still on guard against Liang Yu. If Liang Yu made any unexpected moves, Lin Fan would react immediately.

After a short while, Liang Yu led Lin Fan into a ravine...

This ravine was filled with the chirping of birds and fragrance of flowers!

It was like a paradise!

Moreover, within the ravine, several Cave Mansions had indeed been constructed, with people cultivating within each one.

At this moment, Lin Fan’s face showed an expression of utmost surprise.

Of course, Lin Fan’s surprise was not due to the Cave Mansions within the ravine, but because...

Inside the ravine, there was a Dragon Vein.

"Dragon Vein?"

Lin Fan thought in shock, "Why is there a Dragon Vein here in this ravine? And it is apparent that a very powerful True Dragon once resided beneath this Dragon Vein. This True Dragon was even more powerful than the one under the Dasong Dynasty, and possibly even transcended the existence of a True Dragon."

"Right, the Seven Dragon Balls in Ness Lake, could there be some connection with this Dragon Vein?"

Suddenly, Lin Fan found the vicinity of Ness Lake to be incredibly mysterious.

Simultaneously, Lin Fan’s curiosity about this place grew...

Seeing what Lin Fan was thinking, Liang Yu smiled and said to Lin Fan, "Brother Mu Yi, there was once a very powerful True Dragon under this Dragon Vein, and it is said that this True Dragon was trapped here. Because of the trapping of the True Dragon, a Dragon Vein eventually formed here!"

"Ah!"

Lin Fan’s mouth hung open speechlessly.

It wasn’t that Lin Fan didn’t want to say anything, but in the current situation, he was too shocked to know what to say.

Someone actually managed to seal a True Dragon.

It was hard to imagine what level of power someone who could seal a True Dragon had.

After all, a True Dragon could influence the rise and fall of a Dynasty!

"Perhaps, even the Super Great Powers in the Holy Soul Domain might not be able to seal a True Dragon," Lin Fan thought.

At this moment, several people gradually walked out of the Cave Mansions.

These people were all politely greeting Liang Yu.

It was clear that they held great respect for Liang Yu from the bottom of their hearts...

Seeing this, Lin Fan also knew that Liang Yu was definitely not a simple character...

Finally, Liang Yu said, "Alright, everyone quiet down for a moment. Let me introduce my brother here. This is Brother Mu Yi, who I’ve just recently met. I hope everyone will treat him well in the future!"

"Master Mu Yi!"

"Hello Master Mu Yi!"

Everyone greeted Lin Fan warmly!

And Lin Fan returned the greetings one by one.
