A Proud Man Called Himself A Medicinal God!

Chapter 927: Earth Core Tribe

"Down there? Doesn\'t that mean the center of the earth? You actually came up from down there!" The old man was even more surprised.

"It\'s a long story. I entered the center of the earth from a certain place, and it was a life-and-death experience to get here." Shen Xiang didn\'t explain it too clearly.

"I am the patriarch of the Earth Core Tribe. Although we are the Earth Core Tribe, we have never been to the Earth Core Tribe. We live deep underground all year round and cannot be exposed to sunlight. We migrated here many years ago. As time passed, this place slowly became like this, and a dragon crystal vein was formed to form a teleportation array!"

"We were very happy at first because it was beneficial to our survival. We, the Earth Core Clan, became strong by eating crystals. But after the dragon veins were formed, we realized that this was not a good thing because dragon veins know how to protect themselves!"

At this point, the old man sighed and said, "The formation created by the dragon vein has also trapped us here. Fortunately, there are still many crystals here, so we can survive without disturbing the dragon vein. However, the mining of those crystals is now restricted. In a few years, we will only be able to drink these unpalatable things."

The Earth Core Tribe, there is actually such a strange race, and Long Xueyi doesn\'t even know about this race.

Shen Xiang came here to find the dragon vein. If he couldn\'t mine it, wouldn\'t it be a wasted trip? Besides, it wouldn\'t be easy to get out either. It would probably take many days.

"Old sir, can you take me to see the dragon vein? Did it really turn into a dragon?" Shen Xiang said.

"This place is still far away from where the dragon vein is. Come with me!" the old man nodded.

Shen Xiang followed the old man, shuttled through the white mist, and entered a cave. There was no white liquid flowing out of this cave. The old man told him that this was dug out by their Earth Core Clan.

The old man\'s name was Tieli. It turned out that the people of the Earth Core Tribe were also ordinary humans. However, no one knew what happened to their ancestors. They could not be exposed to sunlight, and they all hid in caves. They only dared to come out at night and could only survive by eating stones containing energy.

Many years later, they called themselves the Earth Core Tribe, and specialized in hiding underground to mine ore to survive. They would only migrate overnight when they had consumed all the ore.

The migration was very difficult, as they had to hide when daybreak approached, so they hated migrating. When they learned that a dragon vein was going to be born here, they were so happy that they couldn\'t sleep for several days, because this would be enough to feed them for a long time.

They have lived here for a long time, they don\'t remember how long, but they have been waiting for the dragon vein to form for generations, but when it came to their generation\'s turn, this happened.

The Earth Core Tribe are experts in mining and are best at digging holes. They only need one crystal for each meal, three times a day, to survive. The strong ones need to eat one or two more. There are quite a few of them, nearly 20,000 in number, and each of them is born with great strength, a long lifespan, and their strength increases quickly. They don\'t need to practice, they will become stronger just by eating crystals.

Shen Xiang found it hard to imagine that this was a race that evolved from normal humans. Tieli came here to see if he could find other crystals.

According to Tieli\'s description, they dug out an underground world beneath the evil dragon\'s burial ground. It was as big as several cities, but the dragon\'s head occupied a large area. The head was like a huge mountain, condensed from top-grade crystals. They only dug out a head, and the dragon\'s body was still very long. They speculated that this dragon vein was hovering on a pillar made of crystals.

In the rocks and soil near the dragon veins, there are some small crystals. The Earth Core Clan never intended to disturb the dragon veins. They only dug up the rocks and soil beside the dragon veins. They believed that if they kept digging, the whole dragon would be revealed, and more stones containing pure energy would be condensed in the future.

However, now they can no longer step into the area within fifty miles of the dragon head. The dragon head generates a strange power, forming a protective shield to protect the crystals around it. Crystals are only found near the dragon vein. The Earth Core Clan can only use some reserved crystals to survive. They are also unable to dig a passage to leave here because there is a terrifying power above.

If they don\'t find a solution, these 20,000 people will starve to death, so Tieli is very anxious now. Fortunately, the Earth Core Clan is very united, and every member of the Earth Core Clan is very gentle. They will not cause internal strife when encountering such a thing. They work together to dig tunnels everywhere, and later dug a passage leading to the source of the spiritual liquid, which is the deep pit that Shen Xiang saw just now.

Shen Xiang followed Tieli to the place where the dragon head was, which was equivalent to a large underground city. In the middle was a crystal dragon head with its head held high. It looked like it was carved from a piece of crystal that looked like a huge mountain. The dragon scales and whiskers on it were very delicate!

Standing under the dragon head, one is like an ant, shocked by the magnificent momentum. It is hard to imagine how big this dragon vein is.

This is a naturally formed crystal dragon vein, with the dragon head wrapped around a huge crystal pillar, so this dragon vein consists not only of the dragon part, but also the big pillar.

"The dragon vein cannot be moved, and neither can we, so we only plan to mine the crystals around the dragon vein, but now we have received a great help." Tieli sighed: "There are crystals everywhere within a hundred miles of the dragon head, but we can\'t move a single piece, otherwise the dragon will get angry and scream!"

A hundred miles in radius! And you can dig very deep, this is indeed a super large mineral vein!

"According to the deduction of several old predecessors in our Earth Core Clan, the mineral vein turned into a dragon and became the mineral vein emperor. This is its territory, and the dragon vein has to continue to grow, so it is very protective of itself. Anyone who gets close to the dragon\'s head will be ejected." Tieli said: "Unless... we can enter the dragon\'s mouth and explore it to see if there is any way to communicate with the dragon soul and ask him to be flexible."

"Is this dragon hollow inside?" Shen Xiang asked. If that was the case, then perhaps something even more powerful would grow inside the dragon\'s body.

"Yes, but it\'s hard to get in unless you have an Imperial Crystal!"

Tie Li\'s words made Shen Xiang ecstatic. He had the Emperor Crystal. He was quite pessimistic before and worried that it would be in vain, but now the fire of hope was burning in his heart.

"People who hold the Emperor Crystal are recognized by the Emperor Crystal, and there must be a large piece of Emperor Crystal in the dragon vein, so they will not be rejected by the dragon vein." Tieli said.
