“There’s a hidden door here, it should be the place mentioned in the information.”
After walking around the Technique Library, Zhou Chen saw an inconspicuous white jade door behind a tall bookshelf. When Zhou Chen looked at it, he could see a faint red light emitting from the door.
“The information says that this door is a trap. Many natives who entered this door disappeared forever. However, there is also information that says there are techniques beyond high-grade inside,” Zhou Chen recalled the information he had collected in Sword Furnace City.
“Should I choose a cultivation technique here and go through the test, or should I enter this door with unknown meaning?”
Zhou Chen had originally planned to just choose a suitable cultivation technique here, but he did not expect his journey to be so smooth. Not only was he in good condition, but he had also discovered the rumored secret door. This made him feel a little inflated and eager.
‘This hidden door is most likely the way to obtain higher-level techniques, it’s not likely for it to be a trap. With the strength displayed by the White Jade Capital, it doesn’t have to go through so much trouble to cheat someone. The reason why those who entered the door disappeared should be because they died,’ Zhou Chen thought about the reason why White Jade Capital had set up a door here, and felt that there should be risks and rewards inside. It was not just a place to cheat others.
‘I am still in a good state. Although I spent some effort fighting the stone guardian, I still maintain more than half of my energy. I also have methods to quickly replenish my energy. Moreover, my overall strength has increased greatly due to the Blood Essence Pill that increased all my attributes and the upgraded Monolith passive skill. In terms of survivability, I should be stronger than most of the natives who entered this door.’
Zhou Chen’s judgment was not arrogant. Because there was a limit of twenty years of age in the White Jade Capital, the people who entered this place were all very young. Even if they were the elites of large sects, their cultivation would not have reached a high realm. In terms of offensive strength, they might surpass him, but in terms of physical toughness, Zhou Chen felt that he was superior to them.
‘A technique higher than a high-grade cultivation technique should be the legendary cultivation technique that can reach the Martial Dao Human Immortal realm. If I admit defeat and miss this opportunity, I will definitely regret it in the future.’
After thinking for a while, Zhou Chen decided to enter this door. He was very clear about the dangers here, but his desire for a higher-level cultivation technique, his confidence in his strength, and his unwillingness to leave any regrets made him take that firm step.
He took out the Honey Wine and drank a few mouthfuls. After he recovered his energy, he pressed his hand on the jade door that was emitting a faint red light.
The moment his palm touched the door, he arrived at a desolate land. The land was filled with ravines and sparse vegetation.
Then, Zhou Chen sensed that a huge shadow was quickly approaching from the distance. It looked so huge that before Zhou Chen could see its entire appearance, he felt a terrifying pressure.
“True Dragon?!”
Zhou Chen quickly determined who it was and immediately felt a chill in his heart.
While he was stunned, the winding eastern dragon that covered half the sky had already flown above him. A pair of dragon eyes that were larger than a person looked down at him. Its mouth, which was filled with sharp teeth that could swallow a few buildings, opened and let out a dignified ancient voice.
“Mortal… Do you know your crime for trespassing?”
“I…”
Zhou Chen felt some regret in his heart because he knew he was definitely not a match for the true dragon. This was not only because the other party was too big, but also because its aura was more powerful and terrifying than anything he had seen before.
“I have committed no crimes.” After some thought, Zhou Chen stabilized his thoughts and threw away the fear in his heart. He looked up at the dragon and replied.
After hearing his reply, the true dragon opened its mouth and a terrifying wind blew him hundreds of meters away. Then, it lowered its head and asked him, who was crawling on the ground, “I’ll give you another chance… Do you admit your crimes?”
“I’m innocent!” Zhou Chen roared furiously. He knew that he would die here today. If he could leave just because he admitted to being guilty, then there would definitely not be so many deaths here. Since he would die either way, he had to have some backbone.
After answering the dragon, Zhou Chen directly used the Windrun skill and instantly shot at its head to punch it.
However, the true dragon had long seen through his intentions. It only breathed out again, and Zhou Chen, who had activated the Windrun skill, was blown back to the ground.
“Mortal… you’re very interesting. I’ll give you one last chance… Submit to me!” The true dragon said slowly.
“Submit, your ass! Screw off!”
Zhou Chen felt powerless, but he had a sense of pride in his heart. No matter how strong the other party was, no matter who the other party was, he would not submit to anyone even if he died.
‘Isn’t it just death?! Anyway, this is already my second life. I’ve already profited a lot!’ Zhou Chen already had the will to die in his heart. Death was very terrifying, but compared to dying while kneeling, he would die while standing.
‘I will definitely eat a piece of your flesh before I die!’
With this in mind, Zhou Chen once again used the Windrun skill to charge at the dragon in the sky.
However, the true dragon was enraged this time. It did not blow lightly like before, but suddenly clawed at Zhou Chen, crushing him into the vast land below.
After receiving the attack from the dragon claw that was larger than a building, Zhou Chen felt an incomparable pain transmitting from every part of his powerful body. He seemed to have suffered serious internal injuries. At the same time, he was pressed deep into the ground and was unable to move.
‘No… I can’t just fall like this… I have to counterattack…’
His only thought was of counterattacking. He did not want to die so insignificantly.

Suddenly, he felt the pressure above him lighten, as if the huge dragon claw had left the ground.
‘Here’s my chance!’
Zhou Chen grabbed this opportunity and forcefully jumped out of the ground while enduring the pain in his body. Then, he used the Windrun skill and charged into the sky.
As he had expected, the true dragon in the sky was currently retracting its dragon claw. Because it did not expect Zhou Chen to be tenacious, it did not immediately sense Zhou Chen who had charged out of the ground which allowed Zhou Chen to reach its claw.
After reaching the dragon claw, Zhou Chen ruthlessly bit the dragon claw. He used all his strength in this bite, but he was unable to bite down. This only reminded the true dragon of his existence. Then, the true dragon claw turned its claw and clenched, pinching him. Under the powerful attack, Zhou Chen lost consciousness..
