Shrouding the Sky: Creating Your Own Cultivation Technique at the Start

Chapter 71 Dragon Marrow

As Zixia entered the dragon vein, she froze on the spot, her eyes widening involuntarily as she stared silently at it.

This dragon vein has existed since ancient times and has remained in this celestial abode ever since.

Moreover, its location has never changed since it appeared.

Unlike other dragon veins in the Big Dipper, which constantly change their orientation.

Just like the ancestral vein of Zhongzhou, it has been wandering all these years, and no one can be sure when it will appear next.

Where exactly will it appear, and what kind of spectacle will it create?

Such dragon veins, appearing every tens of thousands of years, will nurture dream-level divine essence, possessing unimaginable effects on cultivators.

It can not only help people cultivate and improve, but also extend the lifespan of cultivators.

The effects of this dragon marrow are especially remarkable for those nearing the end of their lifespan.

It can easily extend their lives by a thousand years, which is equivalent to having an extra life for some cultivators, making it far more precious than imagined.

However, the dragon vein that Zixia entered remained here for millions of years.

The special dragon marrow that has been nurtured for millions of years is bound to be even more precious.

At this moment, Zixia entered the dragon vein and was stunned by the scene before her. What appeared before her was not like a dragon vein at all, but more like a huge divine dragon.

The divine dragon constantly traversed the earth's veins, its entire body radiating a rich dragon aura.

Especially at the center of the dragon vein, she sensed a strong dragon aura.

It seems that within this special little dragon, another special little dragon is being conceived.

It was like a real dragon, possessing a complete life.

"Legendary Divine Marrow." Zixia stared at the little dragon in the dragon vein. Although it was only a small one, its preciousness surpassed the total amount of dragon marrow in the entire vein.

That little dragon was only as thick as an arm, but the essence it contained was unimaginable.

Zixia immediately used her own methods to tear a hole in the dragon vein.

At the same time, a hand reached out and grabbed at the legendary divine essence.

The legendary essence, nurtured for millions of years, seemed to possess its own consciousness, just like a real living being, and quickly dodged to the side.

Seeing the little dragon flee, Zixia immediately unleashed even more of her abilities.

Especially the technique she had just comprehended, which transformed into a small world in the large hand and enveloped the small dragon.

The little dragon was also very quick-witted. After a series of rapid movements, it easily dodged Zixia's attack, catching Zixia off guard.

But this is ultimately just a piece of dragon marrow, not a real living being.

In the hands of a real living being, this dragon marrow is still quite inferior.

Zixia quickly discovered some patterns, and then used several methods to force the dragon marrow towards a certain place.

Sure enough, under repeated pressure, the dragon marrow finally reached a dead end.

There was nowhere left to hide; Zixia could catch him at any moment.

Seeing that the dragon marrow had been captured, Zixia breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As a result, in the instant she relaxed her guard, the dragon marrow tore open a small crack and rushed out from that crack.

Then it broke through the barrier and rushed outwards along the ancient cave.

Zixia dared not delay for the slightest and passed through the barrier.

Following the trail of the ancient cave, they soon discovered the dragon marrow.

She then tracked the dragon marrow all the way out, rushing out along the lake water and blocking the dragon marrow outside the lake, preventing it from escaping.

However, this dragon marrow possessed great intelligence and actually tried to escape from Zixia's grasp.

So it used all its abilities to try to escape from this place.

However, Zixia had gone to such great lengths; how could she let the dragon marrow escape so easily? So she unleashed all sorts of terrifying techniques, targeting the dragon marrow with them.

The dragon marrow was surrounded in an instant, with absolutely no ability to escape.

Finally, under Zixia's repeated attacks, the dragon marrow was sealed and stored in a jade bottle, waiting for Lu Zhao to return and unseal it.

However, the commotion just now alerted many people around.

Many people were drawn to the fluctuations and rushed towards the location where they occurred.

Upon entering the area, they did not see any strange beasts.

Only Zixia was here, as if a great battle had just taken place, the shockwaves of which had not yet dissipated, so that even if she wanted to lie, no one would believe her.

"The dragon energy here is so strong! Did you just obtain something?" Someone immediately stared at Zixia.

Such a strong dragon aura would surely arouse suspicion in these people.

"Hmph, what I got is none of your business. Why should I need to report to you?" Zixia snorted coldly in dissatisfaction.

"Since you obtained the treasure in the Immortal Abode, let's see if you can protect it," one of them sneered.

Lu Zhao guided several crocodiles while waiting for Zixia's signal.

Once Zixia has completely succeeded, she will immediately send out a signal.

However, Zixia's signal never appeared after such a long time.

Moreover, they had already gone far enough away that the crocodiles wanted to go back long ago. If he hadn't been constantly luring them, the crocodiles would have gone back long ago and wouldn't have chased them this far.

But once they reached this place, the crocodiles clearly became impatient.

They turned around at the same time and rushed towards their own territory.

"No, Zixia's signal hasn't appeared yet. If we let these guys go back, Zixia will definitely be trapped in the Dragon Cave, and then she'll be finished," Lu Zhao said through gritted teeth.

Thinking of this, he quickly turned around and chased after the crocodiles.

At the same time, he used the skill "Shifting Stars" to appear in front of the crocodiles.

Then the Immortal-Slaying Gourd appeared, spewing out a pillar of fire—a seven-colored flame with an incredibly terrifying temperature.

The flames engulfed several crocodiles, instantly turning them into torches.

Roar!

The remaining crocodiles were enraged. They were completely enraged at this moment and unleashed terrifying power, charging towards Lu Zhao.

From this point onward, they even temporarily forgot about their own territory.

I just want to deal with this young man in front of me before I think about anything else.

Lu Zhao also used the Immortal-Slaying Gourd to constantly entangle with these crocodiles, gradually weakening them, and finally defeated them with flames.

Especially the powerful crocodile leader, whose strength was indeed terrifying beyond imagination. Even though its whole body was engulfed in seven-colored flames, it still endured the burning pain and charged towards Lu Zhao, wanting to drag Lu Zhao down with it.

If Lu Zhao hadn't possessed the ability to shift stars and change constellations, he would have encountered real trouble this time.

Fortunately, after some maneuvering, he managed to kill all the crocodiles.

Only when none of them could return did Lu Zhao finally feel completely at ease.

He then unleashed his fastest speed and rushed towards the lake.

Now that so much time has passed and Zixia still hasn't sent a signal, she must have encountered some problems, which is why she hasn't been able to send a signal for so long.

As for the idea that Zixia would run away with the treasure, he believed that Zixia wouldn't do that.
