Dragon Monarch
Chapter 77 - Mission Location: Dragon Valley
After picking up the spiritual stone from the Alchemist Association, Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi moved towards the exit gate of the Heavenly Dragon sect.
“It's time we left. Brother, where is the direction of Zhu city?” Asked Lin Yan while looking towards the distance. Both of them were currently at the entrance gate of the wilderness within the Heavenly Dragon sect.
Huan Caiyi pointed to a certain place and Lin Yan nodded small. The two of them immediately moved at an ordinary speed because they knew that the time to reach Zhu city was quite long.
Time continued to pass, it was already a week after Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi had left to run an A-class mission.
**
In the outer wilderness, there were several other disciples to go take the entrance exam to the inner wilderness. There were some disciples that Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi knew as well.
Gu Yuena, Gu Yin and another disciple who was of Lin Yan's age named Li Hao had reached the Xiantian level.
No one would have expected that Gu Yin with lesser talent was able to catch up with the two monstrous geniuses.
“Where are the Elders picking us up? She's very long come.” Gu Yin who was waiting with the other disciples, protested because he felt it was too long for the Elder to come.
Gu Yuena looked at Gu Yin with a stinky look as she naturally knew that her cousin was eager to meet Lin Yan on the mission.
However, the two did not know that Lin Yan had graduated and had already entered into the deep wilderness which would leave Gu Yin disappointed at not being able to meet Lin Yan. It was certain that the two of them would be surprised as well that Lin Yan was able to complete the mission at an extremely high speed.
And when they entered the inner wilderness, they would be disappointed back because Lin Yan went on a long-term mission that was likely Lin Yan would be outside of the Heavenly Dragon sect for half a year.
Li Hao on the other hand remained calm while staring at a glance towards Gu Yuena and Gu Yin who were his contemporaries. He knows that there are many geniuses in this world and he is not proud of his achievements at this time. He was also excited to continue advancing because he had a target to exceed, namely Lin Yan.
Not long after, Elder Chi who was in charge of picking up the disciples arrived and brought all the disciples in that place.

Meanwhile, Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi continued moving for almost a week. The two of them only stopped twice and continued on their way.
“It has been one week, we will arrive in another week at the longest if maintain this speed.” Huan Caiyi who was leading the way said to Lin Yan who was next to him while continuing to move.
Huan Caiyi who was on the move, took out a map from his room ring. He looked closely at where they were at this moment.
“In half a day, we will arrive in a medium-sized city,” said Huan Caiyi after knowing their current position.
“Alright, we will settle in that city for a day. If possible, we cultivate in some time using spiritual stones to increase the strength and quality of our spiritual roots. I feel that it won't be long for us to reach the level of the Spirit Realm,” said Lin Yan.
“Does 5,000 spiritual stones increase our cultivation to that level?” Ask Huan Caiyi in surprise.
“No. Most likely I only went up by two stages and for you it might be the same because I need a lot more resources. Also, have you ever heard of a certain manual to train the body to be stronger?” Asked Lin Yan.
Huan Caiyi pondered for a moment. He knew that a manual was very important to cultivators. If you only rely on the basic manual constantly, it might be that only cultivation increases but not for body strength, energy and everything else.
Spirit Realm level cultivators usually already had their own cultivation manuals in order to progress faster than cultivators who only relied on basic qi training manuals.
“I heard that the Long clan which is the Royal family has a special manual that is stored safely. I don't know what the manual is and just heard rumors about it. Did grandfather and grandmother not leave a cultivation manual to you, Yan'er?” Huan Caiyi was a little perplexed as he felt that their grandparents had definitely left something for Lin Yan. And also, Huan Caiyi of course called grandfather and grandmother to Lin Ming and Lin Xi because she already considered herself as Lin Yan's legitimate sister.
“No.” Lin Yan shook his head then continued, “This is definitely related to my body. From the very beginning, without cultivating even I was able to fight a Houtian level spirit beast. Perhaps it was because of that that grandfather and grandmother thought that the cultivation manual they had would not be a match for me. Also, I've realized that as well. It's like when I cultivate the basic manual of cultivation, it's like there's something holding me back continuously to advance further.”
“I don't know what it is. I'm sure that if I don't find a special cultivation manual for me, I won't be able to progress any further after reaching the level of the Spirit Realm.” Lin Yan said with a slightly bitter tone. He certainly understood a little about his body that looked very strange but as if it was bound by something.
“How can it?” Huan Caiyi was surprised to hear Lin Yan's explanation. He immediately thought and gave advice, “Does the Shadow Emperor manual help you?”
Huan Caiyi directly offered the Huan clan manual that he had memorized since childhood because it was a must for him for the clan head's daughter.
“Can't, although maybe I will learn the shadow element, but it will take a long time for me to master it because I don't have the bloodline of the Huan clan. I can't wait that long.” Reply Lin Yan for thinking back to his grandparents who were in a very far away place. He does not want to spend time learning something that might be long to master.
“There must be a way for that later.” Huan Caiyi said in an optimistic tone as he was confident that there would definitely be a way.
Hearing Huan Caiyi's words, Lin Yan smiled faintly. He gazed towards the distance and thought back about the place where their mission was located.
And that place was a certain region that cultivators rarely entered for some reason. The place where their mission was to go was named, Dragon Valley!
