Chapter 1817: Chapter 1837: Holy Land, The Final Path?_1

"I am an envoy from the Immortal Palace, I came to discuss important affairs with the Clan Chief of the Azure Dragon Clan, but I was swept away by a surge of blood light, and directly pulled into this place..."

"Wait!"

The disciple of the Ice Dragon Clan stared suspiciously at Lin Chen – "What blood light?"

Lin Chen then narrated the whole incident about how the Bloody Light Door had swept everything into its destructive vortex; leaving the Ice Dragon disciple completely dumbfounded.

"The Sky Door exploded?"

Lin Chen nodded, "I was drawn in and blacked out instantly. When I woke up, I found myself deep in the wilderness. I was about to become a meal for some wild beast. After flying thousands of miles, you guys are the first dragons I have encountered. Can you tell me what’s going on here?"

After some thought, Lin Chen added, "I know that the Dragon Clan Holy Land doesn’t allow humans to enter, but it wasn’t me who chose to come here. I was brought here against my will. How can I safely leave this place?"

Now the Ice Dragon disciple was also growing anxious, "What about the entrance? Has it been repaired after it exploded? Can we still leave?"

Lin Chen shook his head, "I don’t know. From what I last saw, the Clan Chiefs of the other clans and other powerful fairies managed to stabilize themselves and weren’t sucked in with their power, everyone else was absorbed in."

"Everyone here is an elite of the Dragon Clan. The Clan Chiefs on the outside will surely think of a way to rescue us right? Moreover, we are at the place where the soul of the Ancestral Dragon resides. He is an ancestor of all dragons. He surely won’t just watch and let many dragon elites be trapped here."

The Ice Dragon disciple also thought it was reasonable and instantly calmed down, "My name is Yuan Hong from the Ice Dragon Clan, nice to meet you, Emissary."

Lin Chen said with a laugh – "First let me help you heal your wounds."

Lin Chen took out the Shengling Pearl, healed Yuan Hong’s injuries, and then asked – "Brother Yuan, I saw you fighting with a disciple of the Golden Dragon Clan and you handed him a card at the end. What is that?"

"It’s a Meal Card."

With a reluctant expression on his face, Yuan Hong explained – "Upon entry, everyone will receive half a card. Two halves make one complete meal card, which can be used to attend the banquet organized by the Ancestral Dragon. There you can drink Immortal Wine and eat Immortal Peaches. These things can enhance your strength."

"People without a complete Meal Card can still attend the banquet, but can only sit in the outer area. Although there is delicious food available, they will not get a chance to drink the Immortal Wine and eat the Immortal Peaches. This results in many disciples fighting with each other on their way to the Ancestral Dragon’s place, in order to complete their Meal Cards."

Lin Chen laughed, "If the Ancestral Dragon is already holding a big banquet, why exclude half of the people? Why not be magnanimous and give everyone a chance?"

Yuan Hong explained, "The fight for the Meal Card possibly serves to select disciples who are stronger and more worthy of cultivation. After all, the Immortal Wine and Immortal Peaches are not ordinary items. Some people say that these things should originally only exist in the High-ranked Immortal Realm. Our Mid-Grade Immortal Realm is not capable of cultivating such high-quality Immortal Peaches."

A high-ranked Immortal Realm?

Lin Chen curiously asked, "Has this Immortal Peach and Immortal Wine always been present here?"

Yuan Hong nodded, "It is said that initially, the disciples of the Dragon Clan who entered the Sacred Ground did not receive such treatment. It all started later. Initially, there were very few items, not as many as there are now."

From nothing to something, and from little to many?

Did the Ancestral Dragon initiate cultivation in this Sacred Ground Secret Realm?

"Although I’m not a Dragon Clan disciple, I also want to leave here safely, so it seems I have to go see the Ancestral Dragon with you. I was forced to enter here. Hopefully, the senior won’t mind."

Yuan Hong nodded, "Yes, let’s go together."

Lin Chen asked, "Where is the Ancestral Dragon? I’ve flown thousands of miles and still haven’t seen a single person or shadow. This place is too big."

Yuan Hong laughed, "This is a small world isolated by the Ancestral Dragon using its Heaven-reaching Power. It is said that the Dragon Clan didn’t have many members initially, and there was a constant state of war with the Human Clan. The Ancestral Dragon worried that the Dragon Clan might eventually fail to survive, so it isolated a world, named it the Holy Land, providing it as a shelter for the Dragon Clan."

Lin Chen wondered, "So that means if the Dragon Clan ever faced an indomitable enemy or a crisis of extinction, the Clan can take all its members and live in this secret realm, isolating them from the human world and its dangers?"

"Yes!"

Yuan Hong laughingly said, "However, although the Dragon Clan has been constantly at war with the Human Clan, they have still managed to flourish. Therefore, this retreat of the Holy Land is naturally not needed anymore. It became the real Holy Land of the Dragon Clan, a place where the Clan’s elites could meet the Ancestral Dragon and listen to his teachings."

Yuan Hong closed his eyes, and after a few seconds, he pointed in a direction - "It’s that way."

Lin Chen curiously asked, "How are you sensing the direction?"

Yuan Hong laughed, "This is a bloodline talent inherent in our Dragon Clan."

Alright, bloodline talent, he didn’t have that.

Lin Chen looked in the direction pointed out by Yuan Hong, feeling grateful in his heart. Fortunately, he bumped into a dragon. Otherwise, with his direction being 90 degrees off the actual location and without having any bloodline talent to guide him, he surely would have been lost in this small world.

"Alright, you lead the way, and I’ll follow. Is that okay?"

Knowing that Lin Chen was somehow rolled into this situation, Yuan Hong lost all his hostility towards him. Furthermore, Lin Chen was an Immortal Palace envoy and had even helped him heal his wounds. Yuan’s attitude became more polite.

"Alright, whether or not you can meet with the Ancestral Dragon, I don’t know, but let’s go together. The Ancestral Dragon shouldn’t mind..."
