Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Legacy Secret Land_1

Hum!

The oppressive aura dispersed, and Lin Jiuxiao and the others all stood up.

”Elder Lin, there’s something I don’t understand!” Jiang Chen looked at Lin Chongyang with a puzzled expression.

Lin Chongyang gave a slight smile, ”Are you asking why the secret ground needs the blood of the Jiang Family to be opened?”

”Yes,” Jiang Chen nodded lightly.

Jiang Minglong’s eyes brightened as he intently looked towards Lin Chongyang. This question had been in his heart for twelve years, and every time he asked Mo Tianze, Mo Tianze gave vague responses.

Today, he should be able to know the answer.

”This question, within the entire Sect, only I can answer!” Nostalgia flickered in Lin Chongyang’s eyes, ”When the Chixiao Sect was established, it was built by three people. One was the founding ancestor of our Chixiao Sect, also the ancestor of my Lin Family, Lin Zhengtian. The other two, were a pair of blood brothers... They were the ancestors of your Jiang Family!”

”What?” Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment and exclaimed. The Jiang Family had such deep ties with the Chixiao Sect?

Lin Jiuxiao and the others also stood there in shock, suddenly understanding why Lin Chongyang was furious upon learning that the Jiang Family had nearly been annihilated, and also understanding why Lin Chongyang wanted to form an iron-blood alliance with the Jiang Family. It wasn’t just because of Jiang Chen’s importance!

”Back then, my ancestor originally wanted to nominate your Jiang Family’s ancestor for the position of Sect Master of Chixiao Sect, but the Jiang Family’s ancestor refused. The second ancestor of the Jiang Family also refused, and only then did the title of founding ancestor of our Sect fall upon my ancestor.”

There was a hint of self-mockery in Lin Chongyang’s eyes. The title of Sect Master had been conceded by the two brothers, yet their Sect had almost just watched the Jiang Family be destroyed. This was indeed a great irony!

”After the establishment of the Sect, the three ancestors created this secret ground together, setting up the seal with their essence blood. After the death of the ancestors, it was decreed that this secret ground could only be accessed by someone with the Lin Family bloodline and two with the Jiang Family bloodline, who reach a certain concentration of bloodline. Forcing it open would surely trigger a self-destruction mechanism!”

”Over the years, no descendant of the Lin Family ever met the standard, it was only when this girl Yu Ling snuck off to play in the back mountain that bloodline traction occurred, and our Lin Family finally matched someone with the bloodline...”

As he spoke, Lin Chongyang looked apologetically at Jiang Minglong and Jiang Chen. ”The bloodline traction needs to be confirmed before the age of fifty, for after fifty, even if the concentration of bloodline is sufficient, the seal cannot be opened. Within the same generation, it’s only possible for one person to reach the standard concentration of bloodline, so they...”

”We secretly investigated all the younger members of the Jiang Family, confirming that no one else could meet the standard. We had already given up hope, but unexpectedly...” Lin Jiuxiao added his piece, his eyes blazing as he looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen glanced at Lin Jiuxiao, then at the stone gate behind the loft, and nodded lightly. ”I can open this secret ground with you, but as for what’s inside, we’ll each rely on our own abilities to claim it.”

”Of course, what’s inside was placed by the three ancestors. The two ancestors of your Jiang Family contributed the most, even if you and your son take everything, we have no complaints whatsoever!” Lin Chongyang nodded firmly.

Lin Jiuxiao and the others hesitated, just about to object, but then they seemed to realize something and closed their mouths begrudgingly.

Jiang Chen looked deeply at Lin Chongyang, understanding in his heart that this was Lin Chongyang’s way of making amends for a past mistake of the Chixiao Sect.

Because of this, his favorable impression of the elder increased several fold.

”Alright, let’s open it then!” Jiang Chen nodded, and with a spread of his palm, the thread of blood that he had been containing shot rapidly towards the stone gate.

Hum!

The stone gate trembled violently, and an immense breath emanated from it.

”We’ve met the standard! It’s really met the standard!” Lin Jiuxiao and the others were overjoyed.

”Where’s the person from your Lin Family?” Jiang Chen turned to look at Lin Jiuxiao.

Tap tap tap!

A graceful figure stepped forward two paces, standing in front of Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was slightly startled, but then he suddenly realized something. Lin Chongyang had mentioned ”Yu Ling girl,” but he had been so absorbed in listening to the story that he had overlooked this detail.

”Let’s go!” Jiang Chen called out as he sheathed the Blood Saber and strode towards the stone door.

Watching Jiang Chen take the initiative, Lin Jiuxiao and the others were all taken aback. Jiang Minglong’s lips curled into a gratified smile, and he followed with large strides.

Lin Yuling turned to look at Lin Jiuxiao, and after receiving a nod from him, followed as well.

The three of them arrived in front of the stone door and stood quietly, just standing...

”Chen’er, begin.” Jiang Minglong spoke solemnly.

Jiang Chen blinked, puzzled, ”Begin what?”

”Begin to open the seal, of course,” Jiang Minglong said as if it were obvious.

Jiang Chen pursed his lips, ”How would I know how to open the seal? That old man didn’t say.”

”Then you...” Jiang Minglong paused, staring at Jiang Chen with a look of surprise.

Jiang Chen’s face turned slightly red as he turned his head away to avoid Jiang Minglong’s gaze.

Pfft!

Lin Yuling couldn’t hold back and laughed out loud, while Lin Jiuxiao and the others behind them also revealed expressions of bemused amusement.

Everyone had watched Jiang Chen walk confidently toward the stone door, thinking he knew how to open the seal, but after a long wait, he did not move. They thought he must be preparing solemnly, as this was no trivial matter, but after hearing the conversation between Jiang Chen and his father, they realized that Jiang Chen did not know the method to open the seal.

”Haha...” Lin Chongyang shook his head amusedly and declared loudly, ”The method to open the seal is simple. All three of you just need to expel a drop of Essence Blood onto the stone door.”

”Ahem! Let’s start!” Jiang Chen coughed, concealing his embarrassment and speaking with a serious tone.

Jiang Minglong and Lin Yuling both nodded earnestly.

Lin Chongyang and the others also put away their smiles, their expressions growing tense.

After so many years, the Chixiao Sect had guarded this secret place for so many years, and today, it could finally be opened!

Spurt! Spurt! Spurt!

The three of them almost simultaneously spat out a stream of blood, directly hitting the stone door.

Hum Hum Hum!

A vast aura emerged once more, bypassing Jiang Chen and the others, and suddenly pressing down on Lin Chongyang and his companions behind them.

”Fall back!” Lin Chongyang’s face changed dramatically. He pushed out a palm towards the others while swiftly retreating. Taking advantage of Lin Chongyang’s palm force, everyone moved back in unison.

Rumble Rumble Rumble!

As Lin Chongyang and the others retreated thirty meters, the stone door burst open, and an immense and boundless aura emanated from within.

”Let’s go. It seems only we can enter!”

Jiang Chen glanced back at Lin Chongyang and the others, softly called out, and stepped into the stone door, with Jiang Minglong and the others following closely behind.
