Chapter 2690: Chapter 2689: The Third Earth Dragon Treasure Vault

Lin Dong traversed through layers of mist and trials of the heart, finally breaking free from the Illusionary World of the Third Stage, and stood firmly in front of the main gate of the third Earth Dragon Treasure Vault.

Sunshine filtered through the sparse clouds, casting dappled light on this ancient and mysterious land, paving his path to victory with a golden glow.

He took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling both relieved and slightly wistful.

Recalling the various experiences within the illusion.

The illusions that were hard to distinguish between true and false, the fears and struggles deep in his heart, and the deep moments of dialogue with himself, Lin Dong couldn’t help but sigh softly.

”Those were indeed beautiful and almost became a permanent trap. In the end, it seemed the white light emanating from that mysterious door left by my father in the Dragon Ring Space woke me up.”

”Father left me a message, saying that behind that door lies his clues. Now it seems, behind that door is not just one secret.”

”There are deeper secrets! What other secrets are hidden inside?”

Lin Dong wanted to open it, but even with his strength reaching the level of Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, he still could not do it.

”Exactly to what level of strength must one reach to open it?” Lin Dong pondered these matters until his head ached.

Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes sharp, firmly gazing at the third Earth Dragon Treasure Vault that emanated a faint spiritual light.

The main gate of the treasure vault seemed to be forged from ancient runes, with each stroke containing indescribable power, arousing imagination.

Without hesitation, Lin Dong took a deep breath, stepped forward, and gently touched the cold runes with his hands. Instantly, a warm and gentle force enveloped him, and the vault’s gate slowly opened, revealing a deep passage leading to the treasure.

Entering the treasure vault, an ancient and solemn aura hit his face. The walls were inlaid with various gemstones, emitting strange lights that adorned the entire space in a way that was both mysterious and magnificent.

However, the sight before him left him stunned.

The vault was empty, except for the occasional weak glow from the walls, there was nothing else. He looked around in disbelief, puzzled thoughts swirling in his mind:

”Strange, wasn’t it said that the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique was hidden here? Why, after searching for so long, haven’t I seen even a shadow?”

Lin Dong did not give up. He searched again carefully, not leaving a single corner unchecked, but regrettably, apart from echoes resonating in the deserted vault, he found nothing.

Sweat trickled down his forehead and dripped onto the cold stone slabs, making a faint sound that seemed unusually clear in this silent space.

Just as he felt despair and was about to give up, a slight movement captured his attention.

In a corner of the vault, a small and exquisite little winged dragon, with wings as thin as cicada wings, was quietly curled up there,

its eyes half-open, half-closed, seemingly asleep yet seemingly alert to everything around.

Lin Dong’s heart stirred, could it be...

A weird thought suddenly flashed in his mind like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating the mist in his heart.

”Could it be that the legendary Earth Dragon Treasure Technique is this little winged dragon?”

Once this idea surfaced, it was impossible to shake it off. Lin Dong’s gaze locked tightly onto the little winged dragon, and he approached slowly, fearing to disturb the tranquility.

And at that moment, the little winged dragon suddenly flew up.

The little winged dragon with wings as thin as cicada wings circled a strange crystal stone suspended in mid-air. The crystal stone seemed to contain endless energy, and the little winged dragon appeared to be absorbing the energy inside.

Lin Dong’s heart trembled. He had never seen such a lively and spiritually rich carrier of a treasure technique, and he couldn’t help but observe more closely and seriously.

While Lin Dong was deeply engrossed in observing and contemplating the little winged dragon, an unexpected voice shattered the vault’s silence.

The little winged dragon unexpectedly spoke in human speech, with a tone filled with disdain and arrogance: ”Actually a human kid. So, human kid, do you also want to acquire the Earth Dragon’s treasure technique? I advise you not to dream about it, humans cannot possibly harmonize with the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique.”

Hearing this, Lin Dong was momentarily stunned, utterly shocked that this seemingly weak little winged dragon could actually speak.

He quickly composed himself and replied politely: ”Are you the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique?”

The little winged dragon gently shook its head, a teasing smile playing on its lips: ”Hehe, of course not. The Earth Dragon Treasure Technique is a treasure technique, how could it be in a form like mine?”

Upon hearing this, although Lin Dong felt a bit disappointed, he still asked unwillingly: ”Really not?”

”Why would I lie to you,” the little winged dragon gently tapped the air beside it with its wing, as if expressing its helplessness, ”Though I’m not the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique, I can teach it. I am the teaching spirit, specifically responsible for instructing those who come here.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong’s eyes instantly lit up, as if he had found new hope: ”Since that is the case, according to the rules, should you not impart the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique to me?”

However, the little winged dragon gave him a rolling eye, the human natured expression making Lin Dong both amused and helpless. It slowly said:

”I say, human kid, do you not understand human speech? To think I used human speech to communicate with you, how come you don’t understand? Didn’t I tell you before, humans cannot learn the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique. So stop wasting your efforts, go back where you came from.”

Lin Dong’s face changed slightly, but quickly regained composure. He knew well that impatience and anger would not solve the problem when facing such a presence.

Therefore, he took a deep breath and said with a sincere and determined tone: ”I respect your opinion, but I will not give up easily. Since I was able to reach here, it means I am destined with the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique. Perhaps, I can prove to you that humans are not incapable of learning the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique.”

The little winged dragon looked at Lin Dong’s determined eyes, and there was a slight, barely noticeable fluctuation in its gaze.

It remained silent for a moment, seemingly contemplating something, then slowly spoke: ”Hmph, since you are so determined, I will give you an opportunity. However, acquiring the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique is not a simple matter. You need to pass my test to prove you are indeed qualified to learn this treasure technique.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong’s heart rejoiced. He knew he had finally taken the first step towards acquiring the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique.

He respectfully bowed, then firmly said: ”Please teach me, I am willing to accept any test.”

The little winged dragon nodded gently, a satisfied expression flashing in its eyes.

It seemed to have decided to give this human kid a chance, to see if he could truly create a miracle.
