Cultivation Pet Shop

When they arrived in the special cultivation realm, they looked around themselves to see where they were.

Even though the system had sent them here, the location that they had been sent was random.

After looking around, Hong Long admitted that he didn\'t even recognize where they were even though he knew the entire Dragon Race homeworld like the back of his hand.

This was a place that was completely foreign to him.

Of course, this place wasn\'t that strange that it would be weird if he did recognize it.

This place was a clearing in the middle of a forest and there were the sounds of creatures all around them, so it wasn\'t as if this was a strange forest that didn\'t have a single sound in it.

No matter how they looked at it, it didn\'t seem like there was anything off about this place.

That is until they looked up.

They had ignored what was above them since there was light coming from above, so they assumed that there was the sky and a sun above them. But when they looked up, they found that this wasn\'t the case.

Instead of the sky that they had expected to see, there was a ceiling that was above them.

This ceiling was completely brown with a single spot on it that was releasing light that filled this entire space.

They didn\'t know how big this space was since they couldn\'t see the walls, but this spot on the ceiling really was bright since it was able to light up this entire place.

Seeing this, they immediately realized that they were underground.

Hong Long couldn\'t help looking around himself again before saying to himself, "I never knew that there was this kind of space under our world…"

Lin Fan also looked around, trying to see just how wide this place was. However, he wasn\'t able to see the walls of this place.

He didn\'t know if it was just because it was too big or if there was some kind of illusion blocking him from seeing the ends of this place.

After looking around for a bit, Lin Fan turned his attention to the panel in front of him.

Since this was a special cultivation realm that came with a mission, naturally there would be assistance from the system. Just like before, there was a map that was loaded up in front of him, guiding him on the path to the Dragon Stone.

With this map, he should be able to avoid the dangers of this place, but he didn\'t dare relax either.

He had also released Brainy\'s puppets as soon as they arrived and they had just finished checking out the surrounding area.

To Lin Fan\'s surprise, the strongest creature here wasn\'t even in the Soul Realm.

This was the Dragon Race homeworld and even if it was a hidden place on that homeworld, the creatures living in this place shouldn\'t be that weak. Could it be that this was just how this place was supposed to be, or was there a different reason why they were so weak?

It also made him start thinking about what awaited him at the end of this road…

But he shook those thoughts out since there was no need to think about them right now.

He would have to deal with it eventually since he couldn\'t leave without finding the Dragon Stone, so it was better not to think too much about it.

With the surrounding area scoped out and Brainy\'s puppets searching along the path they were supposed to take, Lin Fan didn\'t waste any time in setting off.

The three who were used to this just followed Lin Fan without a word, it was only Hong Long who was confused as to why Lin Fan was heading out so confidently.

The way that Lin Fan moved almost seemed like he knew the way.

But as they were heading along, he saw the map that Lin Fan had and understood why.

Since Hong Long had signed the contract with Lin Fan, he was able to see the panels from the system. When he saw the map that Lin Fan put in front of him, he couldn\'t help being shocked by how accurate it was.

This was a map that perfectly showed them the surrounding landscape and drew a clear path for them to follow even though this was a place that they had never been before.

Hong Long couldn\'t help feeling even more admiration for the master of the store.

He knew about this place that the Dragon Race didn\'t even know about on their own homeworld and he was able to provide this kind of detailed map.

Just who was the master?

As they went through the forest, Lin Fan couldn\'t help feeling more and more unsettled.

It wasn\'t because they didn\'t encounter anything since that was normal. He was following the map of the system, so it should be leading him on the safest path.

At the same time, there were still plenty of living creatures around them, so it wasn\'t as if he was unnerved by this.

The reason he was feeling unsettled was because of the cultivation level of the creatures around them.

Every single living being here didn\'t even reach the Soul Realm.

How was this possible?

He could feel the concentration of life energy in the air. It was as dense as the Lin Astral Empire\'s capital, so it should be impossible for these creatures to not reach the Soul Realm.

So what was keeping them from breaking through?

As they walked through the forest, they were getting closer and closer to their destination, but the surrounding area didn\'t change at all. There were just trees as far as the eye could see.

That was until all of that suddenly changed when they came in range of the target.

All of the trees suddenly disappeared and there was a clearing that appeared in front of them.

There wasn\'t a single thing in this clearing as far as they could see, but there was still some distance before they reached their target.

But of course, Lin Fan didn\'t trust this clearing that appeared out of nowhere and he had Brainy\'s puppets scan it first. As expected, he wasn\'t able to find a single thing here…but then he realized that this was strange.

There wasn\'t a single living thing that was living in this clearing, whether it was under the ground or above in the air.

It was as if there was something in this area that completely stopped the creatures that lived in this place from approaching.

He even used Brainy\'s puppets to chase a few of the creatures towards the clearing.

The moment that the creatures saw that they were about to enter the clearing, they suddenly turned around and looked like they would fight for their lives. So Lin Fan just had Brainy\'s puppets let them go and they immediately ran off without any hesitation.

It seemed that there was indeed something here that was driving the creatures away.

After experimenting and scouting for a bit, Lin Fan decided to head forward.

They continued along the plains in front of them until they finally reached the location that was marked on the map. However, when they arrived, they weren\'t able to find a single thing here other than that the grass was taller than before.

As they had come closer to this area, they had found that the grass was slowly growing taller and taller until it reached their waists.

Of course, with their cultivation levels, that wasn\'t a problem at all.

They just used their life energy barriers to push aside the grass so that it didn\'t affect them at all.

But the problem now was that there was nothing here in this spot that the map led them to.

The three who had followed Lin Fan earlier didn\'t say anything, but this was Hong Long\'s first time on a mission like this. Seeing this scene in front of him, he couldn\'t help asking, "Is there something that we\'re missing here? Could it be that the map led us to the wrong place?"

He didn\'t want to doubt the master of the store, but since there was nothing in front of them, he couldn\'t help feeling a bit of doubt.

Lin Fan didn\'t say anything as he looked in front of him, as if he was thinking about something.

He was actually focused on Brainy\'s puppets that were currently exploring the area, looking for anything out of place. But even with all of Brainy\'s puppets combing the area, they weren\'t able to find a single thing…

So Lin Fan also couldn\'t help feeling a bit of doubt.

That was until he suddenly came to the very center of the tall grass and he accidentally kicked something.

When he kicked this thing, there was a clicking sound that suddenly rang out.

He looked down and he wasn\'t able to find a single thing by his feet, but he was certain that he had kicked something just now…

Then in front of their surprised eyes, the grass seemed to part as something raised out of the ground.

When it was fully raised, they saw that it was a podium carved out of stone that appeared in front of them.

They all looked at each other with confused looks before coming forward to look at the podium.

"Those that wish to find the Dragon Stone, bring the purest dragon bloodline you can find."

"Purest dragon bloodline?" All five of them couldn\'t help repeating to themselves.
