Chapter 525 Guarding the Dragon Vein

They stood in front of the dragon-shaped stone pillar and felt a force that almost crushed them. This was the last test and the most difficult one.

Gu Jiuchen closed his eyes and immersed his consciousness in his cultivation. He felt a different force surging in his body. This was the power of the dragon vein, which was trying to merge with his cultivation.

Si Mingyue sat cross-legged and began to use the secret method of the Dark Moon Sect, trying to guide the power of the dragon vein into her body.

Suddenly, the gems on the dragon-shaped stone pillar began to flicker, and the power in the gems seemed to have life and began to resonate with the bodies of Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue.

Gu Jiuchen felt a powerful force erupting in his body, and his cultivation suddenly broke through the previous limit at this moment and reached a new realm. The same was true for Si Mingyue, whose cultivation quietly improved to an unprecedented height.

The two opened their eyes, and their eyes were full of surprise and shock. The power of the dragon vein, they successfully obtained it.

However, just as they were about to leave the Dragon Vein Secret Realm, a powerful consciousness suddenly appeared in their hearts.

This powerful consciousness seemed to be the will of the Dragon Vein Secret Realm itself. It was silently communicating with Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue, conveying a message: they must complete a task to truly gain the recognition of the Dragon Vein Power, otherwise they will not be able to leave this mysterious realm.

Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue looked at each other, and they both saw the determination in each other's eyes. They understood that this was the rule of the Dragon Vein Secret Realm, and they must abide by it. They took a deep breath and prepared to accept this challenge.

The consciousness revealed the content of the task: There is an ancient guardian in the secret realm, a powerful existence that was once a dragon clan. Since ancient times, it has been guarding the secrets of the dragon vein, and any cultivator who tries to master the power of the dragon vein must pass its test. Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue must find this guardian and gain recognition from it.

They began to search in the secret realm, traveling between ancient mountains and deep valleys, and finally found the guardian deep in a hidden cliff. It was a huge dragon, its body petrified, as if it had been sleeping for tens of millions of years.

Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue walked forward. They felt that the guardian's aura was still strong. Even in sleep, it exuded an inviolable majesty.

They began to communicate with the sleeping guardian, using their own cultivation and mental power to try to wake up the ancient guardian of the dragon clan. Time passed by, their strength was constantly consumed, but the guardian did not seem to have any signs of waking up.

Just when they were about to collapse, the guardian's eyes suddenly opened. Its pupils were as deep as the starry sky. Through its eyes, Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue seemed to see the glorious history and glory of the dragon clan.

The guardian's voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the secret realm: "Are you ready to accept the final test?"

Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue nodded firmly. They knew that this final test might be a contest between life and death.

The guardian slowly spread its wings, and its body began to break away from the petrified state and regain vitality. Then, it let out a thunderous dragon roar, and everything in the secret realm began to shake.

"Prove me your courage, your wisdom, and your strength!" The words of the guardian were full of challenges.

Gu Jiuchen drew out the long sword at his waist, which was engraved with complex runes and flashed with a faint blue light. Si Mingyue gently shook the fan in her hand, and countless star-like light spots appeared in the air, surrounding her.

The battle between dragons and humans began, and the sky of the secret realm suddenly became dim, and an epic duel was about to begin. Every attack of Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue was full of power and beauty, and the guardian responded to their challenge with its powerful dragon origin power.

The battle was extremely fierce, the cliffs in the secret realm collapsed, the waterfalls flowed backwards, and the whole world seemed to be shaking. However, as time went on, Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue gradually felt that the power of the guardian was weakening, while their own cultivation was constantly increasing, and the power of the dragon veins continued to surge and merge in their bodies.

Finally, in a battle of strength and strength, the body of the guardian turned into a petrified state again. It slowly landed on the ground, and its eyes once again revealed recognition and respect.

"You have passed the test, and the power of the dragon vein will always accompany you." The voice of the guardian sounded again, and then its body gradually dissipated in the air, becoming an invisible force, and merged into the bodies of Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue.

After Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue passed the test, they all obtained the power of the dragon vein. After possessing the power of the dragon vein, even if his realm has not been broken through, he still has a strong combat power.

With the blessing of the power of the dragon vein, Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue felt that their bodies seemed to have been reborn, their five senses became extremely sharp, and the power contained in their muscles seemed to be able to shake the mountains and rivers. They knew that they were no longer the same as before. The power of the dragon vein had turned them into the hybrid offspring of humans and dragons, with abilities far beyond ordinary people.

But they know very well that the power of dragon vein is not just to improve personal combat effectiveness. The will hidden in the secret realm of dragon veins revealed to them a deeper secret - a prophecy left by the ancient dragon clan, indicating that there will be two cultivators who have obtained the power of dragon veins, and they will face each other one day in the future. A war that concerns the fate of the entire world.

Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue looked at each other and smiled. They knew that they had a heavy responsibility. They were not afraid, but filled with expectation and determination. They decided to leave the Dragon Vein Secret Realm and return to their sect, preparing to hone their newly acquired power to perfection so that they could protect their beloved people and this land in future challenges.

Just as they were about to take action, suddenly the entire Dragon Vein Secret Realm began to shake, and the clouds in the sky rolled, as if something was approaching. Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue immediately increased their vigilance. They knew that the Dragon Vein Secret Realm had never been so turbulent, and something major must be about to happen.

At this moment, they saw a figure descending from the sky. He was handsome and dressed in white. It was their old rival, Murong Yu, the master of the Shadow Palace.

Murong Yu's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he looked directly at Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue, with a proud smile on his lips. "Great, it turns out that the power of the dragon vein is hidden here. Gu Jiuchen, Si Mingyue, you really helped me a lot."

It turned out that Murong Yu had been secretly observing them, waiting for the opportunity, hoping to seize the power of the dragon vein in one fell swoop. He waved his hand confidently, and countless black shadows surrounded Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue from all directions.

Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue didn't panic at all. They were no longer the same people as before. The two stood back-to-back, their auras vaguely connected, and the power of the dragon veins circulated in their bodies, forming a halo of light that forced the assassins of the Shadow Palace back.

A thrilling battle was about to break out, and the murderous intent in Murong Yu's eyes became even stronger. He knew how precious the power of the dragon vein was and vowed to take it for himself. Gu Jiuchen and Si Mingyue are here to protect the secret realm. For their beliefs and responsibilities, they will maintain the peace of the Dragon Vein Secret Realm at all costs.
