Chapter 2983 The Spiritual Dragon
Austin secretly took all hispanions out of the spiritual capital and hid in the woods nearby.
He looked around to observe the terrain of the spiritual capital for a while before examining the space
under the city with his spiritual sense.
After mastering the Earth Form and the sect skill of the red demonic mouse, he often travelled
underground.
On top of that, Austin now had a deeper understanding of thews of the nature as his cultivation base
was much higher than before. Thus, he had be an expert in travelling underground.
It only took him a little while to discover the location of the vessel of the spiritual crystal.
"We will travel underground from here!" Austin announced.
With a wave of his hand, he transferred all his people into the ve Tower, before he dove into the
ground.
Whoosh!
Austin turned into a beam of red light, dashing toward the area below the center of the spiritual capital.
Soon enough, he reached his destination.
But once he got there, he was stumped.
Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Much to Austin''s surprise, there was no sign of any vessel, though the area was abound in Earth
Energy.
Upon seeing this, he was slightly disappointed. He teleported Lange out of the ve Tower using his
mind.
"Didn''t you say that there was a huge vessel of spiritual crystal under each spiritual capital?
Why isn''t anything here, then?" Austin asked him.
"It''s strange! It should be here!"
Lange searched everywhere nearby and found nothing. He was baffled.
"Master, I didn''t lie to you!
There must be a huge vessel of spiritual crystal under each spiritual capital. This is an open secret in
our race.
But I don''t get it! Howe there''s nothing here? This is weird..."
Lange muttered in frustration.
"So something is amiss with this ce," Austin murmured, taking Lange at his word.
Since he had controlled Lange using the Puppet Strings, he was certain that he was loyal and telling
the truth. Lange wouldn''t be able to lie to him.
Austin began to search the area under the spiritual capital with his powerful spiritual sense.
Aside from Lange, he also teleported out arge number of spirits and ordered them to help him look
for the vessel of the spiritual crystal.
But after a while, their search still proved futile.
Just as Austin was getting desperate, he felt the spiritual tree in his Soul Sea unleash its spiritual sense
and direct it at the area in front of him.
Excited, he rushed toward that area immediately.
As he was approaching the spot, it emitted a dazzling white light which illuminated the entire
underground area.
The white light spread like a tide.
Suddenly, a growl rumbled from where the light emanated.
Austin raised his head and saw a faint figure bigger than a mountain, staring at him with bloodthirsty
eyes.
"What the hell is that?"
Austin sputtered in utter shock.
Due to the blinding light, he couldn''t have a clear image of the mysterious creature in front of him. Even
his spiritual sense failed to perceive what it was.
Austin had to open his Eye of the Ghostdom Ancestor to finally see it clearly.
It turned out to be a gigantic white dragon!
The white dragon had been hiding there all the time, but Austin hadn''t spotted it!
It wasn''t until the spiritual tree reacted that Austin could detect it.
The white dragon let out a series of roars, its huge eyes fixed on Austin.
"Master, this is a spiritual dragon!"
Lange and other spirits eximed in delight and surprise.
"Is that so? What''s a spiritual dragon?"
Austin asked in confusion.
"Master, there is something you need to know.
There is a legend in our spiritual race.
It was said the top masters of our race would perform forbidden secret skills to nourish the vessels of
spiritual crystal they found.
They traveled everywhere to collect the best natural resources, integrating them into the vessels so
that they could grow and evolve more quickly.
In the end, some of the vessels would evolve into spiritual dragons.
But rumor has it that the odds to produce a spiritual dragon is exceptionally low.
There is no assurance of that result even with the use of a hundredrge-scale vessels.
So the spiritual dragon is so rare and precious, even aristocrats of our race would fight over it!
The spiritual dragon itself has formidable fighting power.
Whoever refines a spiritual dragon will acquire a terrifying amount of energy. He would be able to get
what he wants and no one in our race would be able to stop him.
I just didn''t expect that the vessel of spiritual crystal under this spiritual capital would have evolved into
a spiritual dragon,"
Lange exined in a shaking voice, his eyes fixed on the white dragon all the while.
"So the spiritual dragon is more precious than a huge vessel of spiritual crystal?"
Austin concluded.
"Of course it is!"
Austin''s spirit ves answered almost at the same time.
"Well, I''ll just take this spiritual dragon, then!"
Austin turned to the dragon eagerly.
"Master, if you can manage to capture and refine this spiritual dragon, your spiritual soul energy would
be boosted so much, and our entire race would have to acknowledge you as a master!" Lange said in
excitement.
At this, the spiritual dragon roared furiously and charged at Austin, as if it understood what he was
nning to do.
As the spiritual dragon moved, the entire underground was filled with dense spiritual soul energy.
The energy rolled and came at Austin.
"Oh, no! Master, help!"
The frightened spirits quickly tried to scramble toward him for protection.
But it was toote. A few hundred of them were crushed to powder by the spiritual soul energy waves
and died on the spot. Their deaths were final this time, as it was already their spiritual souls that were
destroyed.
Most of Austin''s spiritual ves were ordinary cultivators, after all.
They were not strong enough to survive the spiritual dragon''s attacks.
"It has such horrifying spiritual soul energy," Austin remarked in awe.
Hit by the dragon''s overwhelming power, he was beset by a bout of crippling dizziness and his ears
were struck by a sharp pain.
But he soon recovered from these momentary afflictions. Not wasting another second, he hurriedly
transported his remaining ves back into the ve Tower.
He summoned the Eye of the Ghostdom Ancestor again. It appeared between his eyebrows and
opened.
The eye emitted thick beams of ck light that formed into a huge ck floating in front of him.
This was one of the secret skills of the Tomber race that he had learned from Darbytely.
At the same time, Austin transferred Darby out of the ve Tower. Thetter, too, opened his Eye of
the Ghostdom Ancestor, which emitted ck lights that shone on the spiritual dragon.
The spiritual dragon lunged at Austin with a frightening momentum.
It released a tremendous spiritual soul energy that shook the entire area under the spiritual capital.
As a result, the inhabitants of the spiritual capital were finally alerted to what was going on beneath
them.
One of them ran toward the governor quickly.
"Sir, bad news! Someone has broken into the underground and is upsetting the spiritual dragon!"
the spirit reported in a panic.
