Inside the tunnel Shen Tanfeng was travelling with the Shen clan magesstoped., when those leading the way suddenly stopped.

"Why have we stopped." Shen Tanfeng grumpily said, he was in a bad mood.

"Elder Tanfeng we are currently ten meters away from their current location any more and we might alert him" said the sensory mage standing in the front of the team.

"Alright everyone get prepared we will attack two minutes" Shen Tanfeng said with a hint of greed in his eyes. To him two minutes was already stretching his patience.

.......

In the underground cave Tu Zhang was sitting on the ground absorbing the mana around him. It has almost been six minutes since he started meditating he recovered about half his mana. Normally with the amount of mana arround him he should have already finished recovering , after all he wasn't a high levelled mage so he didn,t have a large mana reserve, but the crystal stone seem to have been absorbiing mana actively at an astonishing rate.

" ugh.." Suddenly Tu zhang felt a faint pressure envelop the entire underground cave he felt his bones and muscles contract .

He quickly turned his head, forgetting about the discomfort he checked on Tu tsuki he then saw her laying on the ground unconscious. He moved as quickly as he could and rushed to her side he then enveloped her body in mana and it quickly formed a bubble which lessened the pressure on her body. But then in the blink of an eye the mysterious pressure disapeared.

"...strange " Tu zhang muttered to him self .

But what he didn't realize was the crystal was enveloped in a white mist. If a few moments ago his attention was turned towards the crystal he would have noticed that the baby sealed in the crystal had slightly opened its eyes.

............

In the tunnel the group of mages were in a sorry state some had fainted, some were kneeling on the ground with vomit flowing out their mouth.. The only person to the front of the tunnel able to stand was Shen Tanfeng and even he had a slight amount of saliva dripping from his lips.

What was that pressure just now ,was it caused by the treasure, maybe its a peerless weapon and Tu Zhang must have found it!.

When these thoughts came in his mind his eyes turned red from greed.

"ATTACK ATTACK NOW!!" Shen Tanfeng shouted.

He finally couldn't wait anymore, he had to get that treasure before Tu Zhang got it.

The Shen clansmen in the tunnel that still had the strenght to move quickly followed. Even some of the not so better of ones forced their selfs up to attack, even tho they could barely walk they didn't dare to disobey Shen Tanfengs order.

......

Inside the cave at the exact moment Shen Tanfeng was giving his order.

crack

crack

Cracks began to appear on the big crystaline stone.When Tu Zhang heard the cracks and realized that they were from the crystal he had a bad premonition.

Since he already recovered enough mana he quickly casted a spell.

"crust breaking palm" he said in a low tone. The ground beneath them quickly started to crack as the dirt and rocks in the range of the spell seemed to crack and callapse. .

He quickly operated the magic to make a path and at this moment.

crack

boom

Over a dozen figures jumped from the underground caves ceiling they were the Shen clan members and leading the way was Shen tanfeng.

When they landed on the ground Shen Tanfeng quickly scoped his surrounding but saw no treasure he only saw a crystal 10 meters from him that was gaining cracks by the second. Then he saw across from it Tu Zhang making a Tunnel.

He quickly thought of something.Maybe he didnt see any treasure because Tu Zhang was escaping with it or that the crystal was the treasure and contained an inheritance of some sort.Thinking of it like that he then became eager to capture him and interregate him.

" Attack him before he escapes..."

But before he could finish his sentence he saw a bright light erupt from the crystal.

crack

crash

a huge piece of the crystal broke off and what the Shen clansmen saw next caused them to hold each others hands in fear.

A huge pair of eyes emerged out of the crystal as a phantom image of a huge dragon came crashing towards them.

roar..

Its roar then came as they felt the mana in their bodies get pulled out like a page in a book. causing them to drop lifelessly unto the ground.

Even Shen Tanfeng lost almost all his mana but he was only able to keep enough in his body to keep him alive.And his body fell to the ground like the rest of the Shen clansmen. The phantom image of the dragon then broke through the ceiling of the cave.

.........

roar

The Shen clansmen didn't even get a chance to react to the roar as a phantom image of a dragon shot out from under ground and draining them of all their mana.

But the dragon didnt stop there it broke out of the mountain where the cave was and released an earth shattering roar as it started to fly arround the clouds .

.......

Ten million miles away in a gold palace stood a man wearing a dragon robe the dragon had green eyes and it almost looked lifelike.

This man was the current emperor of the spirit jade empire that ruled over the Blood sun continent , which was the continent the shen clan and the Tu clan resided on.

Roar!!!!

An earth shattering roar came into his ears and even made him tremble slightly.

........

At the mountain where the dragon image was, the dragon then suddenly began to retreat back into the cave and head straight to the large crystal.
