Walking on the plains of Marions, there is a wonderful illusion that you can always walk to the end of the sky.

This is the anointed land of the Kingdom of Sarion, the land is so fertile that it is going to flow oil, if it were not for the wars of these years and the plundering of the Cato people, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this is the land of fish and rice.

"30 years ago, I was only 15 years old, I was a child who didn't know anything, my home was there, we were homesteaders, we had ten acres of land, two horses, a cow, and I had a little sister, you don't know how naughty she was, and she laughed like a fairy. ”

Riding on the tall Death Knight warhorse, the elder Alec recounted with emotion, and the place he pointed to had become a ruin, and the erosion of decades of wind and rain had left a small village that was once quite wealthy with only a few ruins left.

Zhang Yang couldn't know what kind of story was hidden in this ruin, and old Alec didn't plan to tell it, he was just old, and the world left him far behind.

The procession passed through barren fields, dense woods, and grassy trade roads, and gradually, a ridge appeared in front of them, which seemed to be a dragon lying horizontally, which, according to old Alec, was connected to the Elven Forest of the Noldos at one end and led directly to the sea at the other, which was the Nudar Ridge, also known as the Dragon's Remains.

Close to the sea, the Kingdom of Sarion built a strong fortress there. It used to be the gateway for all caravans to enter and exit the steppe, and was also responsible for stopping the invasion of the Catons.

Over time, though, the citadel has become less and less useful, and caravans and the Gatu have found countless trails in the Nudal Ridge.

Of course, the main reason is the high cost of customs clearance.

Therefore, Zhang Yang also chose to take the ridge path, otherwise with a team like them, they would not be able to pass without 500 silver dinars.

From a distance, the ridge was very low, and against the background of the vast sky, it seemed that it could be crossed in one step, and when it came closer, it was found that the mountain was so high that it could cover the sky.

Old Alec led the way, and they made a detour to the south at the foot of the mountain, which was hundreds of miles, and then turned into a deep forest and grassy pass.

"Captain, the length of the Nudar Ridge is thousands of miles from south to north, and there are fifteen hundred passes on the east and west sides, if not two thousand, but fifteen hundred, and there is always an exit to cross, and the Cato have their secret passages, and the caravans have their own secret passages, but this one that can be crossed belongs only to me. ”

Old Alec said with great emotion, "Ten years ago, I was pursued by the Gatu with a caravan, and finally turned over from this pass, but unfortunately we were unlucky enough to meet the reconnaissance team of the Nuodo, and after a fierce battle, I was the only one who escaped back, and since then, I have not walked through this pass. ”

"Are we going to run into those elves?"

Zhang Yang immediately asked vigilantly.

"Probably not, it's just an ordinary pass, and the Nuodoes patrol their forests, most often in the Laria region, which is thousands of miles away. The old man smiled lightly.

There was no road, so after entering the valley, old Alec led people to open the way in front, and by the way, scared away the poisonous snakes in the grass.

The mountain valley is very tortuous, sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, and the narrowest place can barely pass a large cart, and there are many forks.

It's old Alec, and he has to reminisce as he walks.

They had come in the morning, but by the end of the afternoon they had walked less than twenty miles, and were still far from climbing the ridge.

"This is it, yes. ”

Old Alec shouted, with some excitement in his voice, and after leading the people to tear off a large number of vines, cut down the clumps of trees, and the barren grass, a natural cave appeared in front of everyone.

"Captain, this can be used as a stopover over the ridge, and I promise to set foot on the opposite savannah tomorrow afternoon. ”

Old Alec said loudly, and then under his command, everyone got busy, cutting down trees to make fires and cooking, and smoked the cave again with smoke, driving away poisonous snakes and poisonous insects.

I have to say that the old guy has a lot of experience in the field.

Zhang Yang didn't make a move, he just quietly observed the surroundings, and in the fiery sunset in the evening, the majestic and steep Nudal Ridge, for some reason, since he set foot here, he always felt that this place was a little oppressive to him, which felt very unfriendly.

But when he looked at the others, it didn't matter.

"Could it be that this has something to do with the fact that I have visualized the soul nourishing talisman to the fourth level? It's not that this ridge is aimed at me, it's that my soul is sharper. ”

Thinking like this, Zhang Yang had a plan in his heart.

"I'm not going to get busy climbing over the ridge yet, I'm going to stay here for a while, Alec, Robert, Norton, Iggy, the four of you make arrangements, set up a makeshift camp around here tomorrow, and do some more precautions and some training for the soldiers, they are still too weak. ”

Now Zhang Yang's prestige in the mercenary group is high enough, after all, he has won three or four battles in a row, and even deserters like veteran Robert, Norton, and Iggy are very in awe of him, so no one has any objection to his arrangement.

There was nothing to do all night, and the next day everyone went to work and train, and Zhang Yang asked Tony and Bob to take turns guarding him, mainly to guard against poisonous insects and snakes, and then, he sat in the cave and quietly meditated on the soul nourishing talisman.

He had the idea that the unique suppression of this place might give him some effect when visualizing the soul nourishing talisman.

Sure enough, as soon as he began to visualize, the suppressive power that was originally vague suddenly increased, and even a feeling of rejection appeared.

It seems that if you continue, you may go crazy.

But Zhang Yang was not surprised, nor was he panicked, after all, he was very experienced, so he carefully released his soul, felt the oppressive power, and constantly drew its fluctuations.

Yes, that's right, the oppressive force here is strong and weak, like the texture of water waves, ups and downs.

The filigree of the flamboyant soul also fluctuated, and finally drew a plane curve.

According to these plane curves, Zhang Yang continued to use the soul filament to pull out the three-dimensional curves.

It's a boring process, and it sounds esoteric, but it's actually not that hard to understand.

What Zhang Yang did was to materialize a certain radioactive power in this place, that is, the suppressive fluctuations that his soul sensed.

When the three-dimensional curve is drawn, Zhang Yang gets an object with a three-dimensional concept.

"Is this a dragon?"

He was surprised that the curve of the radioactive source was actually the outline of a dragon? Was this a coincidence, or was the Nudar Ridge originally the corpse of a dragon?

And then the suppression he sensed was the aftermath of the dragon's corpse?

Zhang Yang didn't know what the principle was here, and he didn't want to investigate it, because he immediately visualized the shape of this dragon next.

This is also a kind of visualization routine in the world of cultivating immortals.

The Soul Nourishing Talisman is just one of them, and it is recorded in some immortal cultivation classics given to him by the cheap master Qing Fengzi he worshipped at the beginning.

When Zhang Yang used the radiation source curve as the object of his visualization, the oppression and repulsion he had felt before was much lessened.

So he knew he had guessed right.

The more refined and correct the curve is, the smaller the suppression and repulsion will be.

For the next nine days, the soldiers trained here for nine days, and Zhang Yang also visualized for nine days, and finally, on the tenth day, when he visualized the moment of 99% fit according to the curve of the radiation source, a high-pitched dragon roar sounded in the depths of his mind!

Almost at the same time, a vague shadow of a dragon appeared in his soul.

When Zhang Yang put his mind into the shadow of this dragon, he felt as if he had become a dragon, swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and traveling thousands of miles-

Then in an instant, he came to his senses, and between his eyes, a flash of inspiration.

"Wonderful!"

Zhang Yang sighed lightly, and then his hands quickly sealed on the center of his eyebrows, and his mouth whistled softly, with the sound of a dragon's groan, and the next moment the mist rose, and it actually filled half of the valley.

After about ten minutes, the mist dissipated, and a crystal drop the size of a pigeon's egg appeared in Zhang Yang's hand.

"I now know where the Arcana Dragon's Tear Gem in this world came from. ”

Zhang Yang muttered to himself, looking at the water droplets.

"Dragon's tears (pseudo). ”

"The essence of heaven and earth condensed with the power of the dragon soul contains the magic power of the dragon, and it can be used to buff the body. ”

"It can't be stored for long, and the magic dissipates after a day or night. ”

——

With a chuckle, he opened his mouth, and swallowed the crystal water droplet, and suddenly felt a hot current flowing through his body, and his body was suddenly full of strength and became lighter.

Looking at the attributes again, it actually increases by 1 point of strength and 1 point of agility.

However, Zhang Yang didn't care about this, because his real gain this time was to master the first weight of the dragon soul talisman by visualizing the skeleton of the former giant dragon on Nudar Ridge.

This is the same as the nature of the Soul Cultivation Talisman, and it will not even appear in his attributes, after all, the Wanderer system is just a system, and what it can map is the rules that belong to this world, but it cannot map the more advanced rules.

"It's a pity that the dragon soul talisman can only condense one pseudo-dragon tear every day, and this pseudo-dragon tear still needs the magic of the dragon that is free in the Nudar ridge, so I may be invincible in this world through this, but I still can't help the body. ”

"Forget it, I'm just a self-reliant trumpet who wants to do so much. ”

"It's naturally good to be able to develop, to become a foreign aid and ace of the ontology, if it can't develop, then when the ontology loses and goes bankrupt, or even dies, I can keep my last life. ”

Thinking like this, Zhang Yang ordered to continue training here, well, he doesn't want to go to the Gatu steppe, what Ravenston Kingdom is, this Nudal Ridge is a huge treasure trove for him, why should he go far and near?

Next, Zhang Yang changed his position every day, visualized the dragon soul talisman once a day, and harvested a pseudo-dragon tear, after taking it, he could increase 1 point of strength and 1 point of agility every time.

For nine consecutive days, Zhang Yang added 10 points of strength and 10 points of agility, and then, on the tenth day, taking pseudo-dragon tears again was invalid.

He wasn't surprised by this, this was normal, his body was already at a critical point, and the concentration of heaven and earth aura or dragon magic power in the pseudo-dragon tears was already useless.

He had to purify and condense a higher level of dragon tears.

And this cannot be done by relying on the Nudal Ridge.

"Maybe I should find a way to get the treasure of this world, so that the Dragon Tears Gem can continue to upgrade the Dragon Soul Talisman, and in this way, having a strong army is a must. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Yang decided to use a pseudo-dragon tear for old Alai to overcome it and see if he could really subdue it?
