Chapter 1908: Chapter 706: The Former Dragon Sect Grounds, Place of Enlightenment (Part 2)
Sang Jinghe shook his head, "Thank you, senior, for your concern."
Luo Chen sighed, "Over the past half a year, I’ve dragged you around, hiding and running, it’s indeed been tough on you."
The simple-hearted Sang Jinghe declared resolutely, "Once I’ve decided to follow you, a little bit of hustle is nothing. Moreover, it’s I who have been a burden to you, sir."
Luo Chen smiled slightly and said no more.
With Sang Jinghe, he stepped onto the solid ground.
As soon as they landed, the footprints slightly sank in.
Luo Chen looked down; the solid ground turned out to be soft soil, unable to bear his body’s weight momentarily.
Sang Jinghe seemed slightly surprised.
He bent down and grabbed a handful of soil.
The faint Spirit Qi exuded from the soil.
"First Order Spiritual Soil?"
Luo Chen was also a bit taken aback, but didn’t think much of it; the Demon Sea Islands are untended for cultivation, so over time, possessing Spirit Qi is not unusual, he continued forward.
Sang Jinghe hurried to keep up.
However, as the two ventured deeper into the massive island, their previously calm hearts began to stir.
Nothing else!
The soil on this island is of exceedingly high quality!
Like the Green Pouch Soil Luo Chen saw back in the Five Elements Heavenly Woodland, it’s common here.
There are even other high-order spiritual soils such as Transformative Soil and Five-Colored Mud.
Gathered under these spiritual soils, the soil grade here is extraordinarily high, the highest reaching Third Order!
Especially, Luo Chen can sense that at the very center, there might be a chance to see Fourth Order Spiritual Soil!
"No wonder the Spirit Qi concentration here is thin, it turns out it’s all integrated into the spiritual soil, bound and unable to drift into the void."
Luo Chen pondered reflectively.
Sang Jinghe, at this moment, displayed a rosy flush of excitement on his face.
"This place is simply a holy land that every Spirit Plant Cultivator dreams of!"
Indeed!
Spiritual soil everywhere, with Spirit Springs flowing, and obscure spiritual soils needed for cultivating high-order medicinal materials are abundant.
Such a foundation, even ordinary Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect might not possess.
Perhaps only those sects with heritage over thousands of years can cultivate such spiritual soil.
If used wisely, delineating zones accordingly, constructing Spirit Fields, arranging arrays, who knows how many rare medicinal materials could be grown here.
"So, what created such a presence, and why has no one laid claim to it?"
Luo Chen muttered, his gaze falling upon a patch of loose soil.
Ch-ch-ch...
Amidst the rustling sounds, a long worm emerged from the soil.
Seemingly at the sight of strangers, the long worm hastily tried to burrow underground again.
But a Qi Power enveloped it, bringing it to the front.
"Dragon Qiu?"
Sang Jinghe looked surprised at the gray long worm writhing before Luo Chen.
Fleeting images of Spirit Light moved through Luo Chen’s mind as he nodded to Sang Jinghe.
"It’s indeed a Dragon Qiu, and its order is not low, already Second Order."
The Dragon Qiu is exceedingly gentle in nature.
Moreover, they are not characterized by their size; even at Second or Third Order, few grow longer than ten zhang.
Such Demon Beasts are particularly favored by the Alchemy Medicine Sect.
Whenever they appear on the market, they are snapped up immediately.
Because Dragon Qiu is perfect for fostering Spirit Fields and enhancing the quality of spiritual soil.
The mucus they secrete is rich in water and earth Spirit Qi, combined with their habit of burrowing through soil, loosening the compact, thick spiritual soil, it’s more suitable for the growth of Spirit Plants.
Previously, Luo Chen had not noticed, with all his focus on searching for high-order Demon Beasts.
At this moment, following that beat of his heart, he released his Divine Consciousness as deeply into the ground as possible.
As expected!
In the strata below, there were countless Dragon Qiu.
From unranked, First Order, Second Order beings, they were innumerable!
Only Third Order and beyond were absent.
Upon witnessing this scene, Luo Chen’s initial assumption solidified further.
"Jinghe, you stay here and don’t wander, I’ll be back soon."
Sang Jinghe nodded.
After Luo Chen left, he took out a cloth pouch and began to fill it with soil.
As he gathered the soil, he exclaimed excitedly:
"These are top-quality soil! Fill it up to cultivate spiritual soil later as seed soil."
...
"Have you guessed?"
"Seems like you also have thought of it, senior!"
At low altitude, Luo Chen flew swiftly, skimming the ground.
He flew rapidly around the picturesque, massive island, talking with Han Zhan while searching for something.
Han Zhan’s light laughter reached his ears.
"Indeed, when you saw those Dragon Qiu, you must have found out too."
"Yes, if my guess is correct, this giant island should be the Cultivation Land of the Abyssal Sea Region Dragon Sect. It went to the Land of Fallen Demons seeking opportunities, taking all the powerful Dragon Qiu away, leaving only these unimpressive descendants. Due to its reputation, even though it has been gone for twenty years, no formidable Demon Beasts have dared to set sights on this island."
"That’s my guess too. Now that the Abyssal Sea Region Dragon Sect is trapped in the Land of Fallen Demons, its fate unknown. Whether it will come out or not, it will take at least two to three hundred years. Meanwhile, this island has temporarily become an unclaimed land."
Two to three hundred years!
Luo Chen’s eyes sparkled; two to three hundred years is ample time to reach the Nascent Soul Stage.
Right now, what he must do is locate the true cultivation site of the Abyssal Sea Region Dragon Sect.
The Dragon Sect, mighty in strength!
With the power of one beast, it ruled over Yue Cang Lan, showing its prowess.
Such a presence, without a Fourth Order Spirit Vein for sustenance, is simply impossible.
