What era is it, still traditional card making

Both parties in this transaction are honest people, so the deal was easily settled.

After agreeing on a time, the conversation ended.

Ye Qiong returned to the hotel where he was staying, and as usual, he lay on the bed and continued to use the star power to temper his body.

Time passed quickly and it was around eight o'clock in the evening, which was the agreed time.

Aidas and Kelly were waiting in front of the Magic Cat Cafe early.

The black cat hiding at the front desk took a deep breath and cursed in his heart when he saw the dragon boy walking towards the cafe:

"Can you guys meet somewhere else? At worst, why don't you meet at the Higurashi Library? Why do you have to meet in front of the cafe?"

Kaede really didn't want to see this dragon boy at all. Every time she saw him, she felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar and could feel the coldness of the abyss.

Fortunately, after the three of them gathered, they only stayed in front of the cafe for a while and soon chose to leave.

Seeing this, Kailu finally breathed a sigh of relief, then lay down on the front desk and slowly closed her eyes. She has never been a cat that is good at staying up late.

Edas walked at the front of the team and led the way. Their destination this time was a mountain at the front of the City of Progress.

The name of this mountain is Huanggu Mountain. Because a war broke out here in the past, there are many bones piled up on the mountain, so it got this name.

Ye Qiong followed Edas and soon arrived at the Ancient Mountain.

The half-dragon girl stayed where she was and did not move forward immediately. Seeing this, Ye Qiong did not say anything but just watched silently.

Soon, he saw that a crack suddenly appeared on the stone wall in front of him, and then slowly opened up.

Edas looked back at the two of them and said:

"Let's go, this is where the dragon vein of the City of Progress is."

After saying that, he walked straight forward, with Ye Qiong and Kelly following closely behind him.

The cave was quite dark, and the three of them lit a flame in their palms to illuminate the tunnel. The tunnel was quite long, and they walked for about five minutes without seeing the end.

As Edas led the way, he said to them:

"Don't worry, we'll be there soon."

Another five minutes passed, and there was still no end in sight.

Logically speaking, ten minutes should be enough to cross the Desolate Bone Mountain, so why haven't we reached the end yet?

Judging from what Aidas said, she didn't seem to have any idea of ​​answering the question.

Ye Qiong and Kelly had no choice but to continue following silently.

About half an hour later, they finally saw a bright light ahead, and their pace quickened.

When they were about a hundred meters away from the light, Adas, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and intercepted Kelly and Ye Qiong.

"Don't go there."

After saying that, she looked forward and spoke in a language that Ye Qiong and Kelly didn't know at all.

Ye Qiong looked at Kelly. The short witch also looked puzzled at this moment. It was obvious that she didn't know what Adas was doing at the moment.

After a long communication, Adas said to Ye Qiong and the others again:

"Let's go. I was just communicating with the guards here."

It was indeed much more convenient to have someone lead the way, and it saved Ye Qiong and the others a lot of trouble.

This tunnel was extremely long, and it took me an hour and a half to reach the end, stopping and starting.

Finally, they stopped in front of a crystal clear crystal vein. This vein ran through the mountain like a dragon's blood vessel, emitting a faint light. Below it was a glowing river winding underground. The river water was composed of pure magic power and glowed with golden light.

There is no doubt that this is the dragon vein of the city of progress that they have been looking for for a long time.

He knew what to do next even without Kelly teaching him.

Ye Qiong summoned the Moon of Destiny through the contract. Perhaps because too much star power was infused into it, the Moon of Destiny no longer put up any resistance at this moment, as if it had accepted its fate.

However, after seeing the dragon vein in front of it, it seemed to suddenly realize what these three guys wanted to do, and suddenly began to struggle violently.

Ye Qiong would not give up his original plan just because of the struggle of Destiny Moon. He gave the order without hesitation, allowing Destiny Moon to merge into the dragon vein in front of him.

This process is not simple and requires auxiliary rituals to complete.

At this moment, Kelly was already busy constructing the ceremony. What Ye Qiong needed to do was to make the Moon of Destiny lose its ability to resist and integrate into the dragon vein obediently.

What Ye Qiong did now was actually no different from directly killing Destiny Moon, so naturally, he encountered unprecedented fierce resistance.

Fortunately, after such a long period of friendly coexistence, he has gradually mastered the skills to deal with Destiny Moon. Coupled with the seal left by the Moon Witch, he soon made Destiny Moon no longer have any objections to merging into the dragon vein.

"Despicable human, I will cut you into pieces and imprison your soul in the endless abyss."

Ignoring the scolding in his ears, Ye Qiong continued to suppress the Moon of Destiny.

Kelly, who was standing by, had already arranged the ceremony. She turned around and asked Ye Qiong:

"Is it ready? Tell me when you are ready and I will start the ceremony right away."

At this time, Destiny Moon had completely lost the ability to resist. Ye Qiong nodded slightly to Kelly and replied:

"Okay, let's start the ceremony."

After getting the answer, Kelly began to inject magic power into the magic circle in front of her.

Soon, the magic circle began to flash with a brilliant blue light, and the magic power contained in the dragon veins was constantly gathering towards the magic circle, forming a terrifying magic vortex.

The Moon of Destiny in mid-air was attracted by the vortex of magic power. Its body was shaking constantly, trying to resist what was about to happen.

But unfortunately, all its resistance was in vain. The seal left by the Moon Witch was too powerful, and the Moon of Destiny was simply unable to mobilize the magic power in its body to resist the orders from the contract.

The scarlet moon and the magic vortex merged together, forming a red and blue nebula-like thing. The fusion process went very smoothly. At this time, Ye Qiong could already feel that he had established a connection with the dragon vein of the City of Progress.

The dragon vein seemed to sense the surging magic power in his body and was constantly asking for it, hoping that Ye Qiong could transmit the magic power to him.

Normally, the reason why many people want to merge with the dragon veins is to obtain the huge magic power contained in the dragon veins, but at this moment Ye Qiong did the opposite. He merged with the dragon veins not for the magic power, and the dragon veins did not need to gather magic power to him. He just wanted to get a warehouse that could accommodate a large amount of star power.

If this dragon vein could satisfy his requirements, then the expenditure of a little magic power would be nothing to worry about.

Ye Qiong began to transfer magic power to the dragon vein without hesitation.

Kelly, who was standing by, was dumbfounded after seeing this scene. She couldn't help but sigh:

"Tsk, what a terrifying magical power."

Although she had expected this, Kelly had not expected the magical power hidden in Ye Qiong's body to be so amazing.

The magic power of an ordinary person is only about that of a bucket. It will undergo a transformation after reaching the Holy Realm or even the Legendary Realm. At that time, the magic power in the body is about that of a small river. Kelly and Aidas are about this level.

The magic power stored in Ye Qiong's body is much more than the two of them. To use the previous metaphor, the magic power in his body is like a vast ocean, and it is impossible to see where the limit is. Even the dragon veins are eager to obtain magic power from his body.

Soon, Kelly saw clearly that after the fusion of the Moon of Destiny, the dragon vein of the City of Progress began to undergo a transformation, and the light of the magic crystal in the cave became more and more dazzling.

They could intuitively feel that they were absorbing magic power much faster and their bodies were becoming lighter.

Obviously, this dragon vein is about to evolve from the city level to the national level.

If any one of the three of them had a little ambition, they could have used this dragon vein to establish a country, but unfortunately, none of the three had any interest in developing their power.

Adas just wanted to hide in the Dusk Library to read novels. Kelly's heart had already been broken. As for Ye Qiong, he had more important things to do.

In the hands of these three people, the evolution of the dragon veins has basically no other use except allowing the residents of the City of Progress to absorb magic power more efficiently.

Kelly saw Ye Qiong open his eyes and took the initiative to ask:

"What's the situation? Can the star power be transmitted to the dragon vein?"

"Yes, I have transferred half of the star power in my body into it."

Ye Qiong reached out and touched the magic crystal in front of him. He could feel that his connection with the dragon vein was gradually deepening. He believed that after a while, he would be able to fully master the power of this dragon vein.

He was quite satisfied with this success. He turned to look at Aidas and Kelly and said:

"Thank you both for your help. Don't worry, I won't forget my previous promise."

Hearing this, Adas just nodded slightly and didn't say much. On the contrary, Kelly was very interested in Ye Qiong's current condition.

She circled around Ye Qiong, her eyes full of curiosity:

"Is it so easy to merge the dragon veins? Or maybe I should go find a dragon vein someday? Infinite magic power is really tempting."

After hearing this, Adas glanced at Kelly and said calmly:

"If you dare to do this, the owner of the dragon vein will hunt you down to the ends of the earth."

"Do you think I'm stupid? Of course I'm going to look for those ownerless dragon veins."

"The demons have been developing the demon world for so many years. Do you think there will still be unowned dragon veins? Besides, I don't think you can gain the recognition of the dragon veins."

When saying this, Adas glanced at Ye Qiong unconsciously.

As one of the managers of the Dragon Vein, Adas knew clearly how difficult it was to gain the Dragon Vein's approval.

Generally speaking, the form of dragon veins is more like a group of unconscious gatherings, and they tend to act more on instinct.

Her mother, Sharan, had lived with this dragon vein for such a long time, and all they had managed to do was to coexist peacefully and get what they needed.

She originally thought that this fusion process should be a long tug-of-war. The dragon vein must first feel that Ye Qiong is beneficial to it, and then the Moon of Destiny can be slowly integrated into the dragon vein.

However, what happened next was far beyond her expectations.

When Longmai saw the young dragon boy, he was like a hungry child seeing his mother, clamoring for food. Longmai obeyed the other's orders so willingly without any effort.

Because the fusion process went too smoothly this time, Kelly misjudged the difficulty of fusing the dragon veins.

Under normal circumstances, integrating dragon veins is not as easy as it seems now.

Adas took a deep look at the dragon boy in front of her. She felt that the other party's identity might be much more special than she imagined.

Since the purpose of this trip has been achieved, there is no need for them to stay here any longer.

Ye Qiong and Kelly chose to leave first, while Adas stayed. She needed to set up a formation to hide the City of Progress.

If other people knew about the evolution of the dragon veins in the City of Progress, it would definitely attract the covetousness of some ambitious people. In order to avoid such trouble, Edith chose to take the lead and completely block the news of the dragon vein evolution.

On the other side, Ye Qiong and Kaili were almost at the gate of the City of Progress.

Along the way, Kelly would occasionally peek at Ye Qiong.

With his perception ability, he could naturally detect Kelly's gaze.

He would not be so narcissistic as to think that the other party was peeking at him because she had a crush on him. Given the character of this witch, the main reason why she was so hesitant was probably because she had something to ask of him.

Considering that Kelly had helped him a lot during this period, Ye Qiong stopped, looked back at Kelly, and took the initiative to ask:

"Is something wrong?"

When Kelly heard this, a hesitant expression appeared on her face. After a moment of silence, she nodded and replied:

"There's something I hope you can help me with."

"Just say it."

"If, I mean if, you really find out where Sharan is, I hope you can make up a place where she can't be found."

Ye Qiong heard the witch's hidden meaning and replied:

"You don't want Edas to leave here and go find the Moon Witch?"

Kelly sighed softly and replied:

"Shalan had already abandoned little Edas once ten years ago, and now she left without saying goodbye again. I think Edas may not have much weight in her heart.

Rather than begging for Saran to come back like before, it would be better to..." (End of this chapter)
