Continuing to stay at the Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion, those large pill shops under the Pill Alliance will no longer be able to make more profits. Therefore, they are now communicating telepathically and discussing if they should offer 10 billion Li Baoguan.

10 billion is a large sum, but if multiple forces pool their resources together, the pressure isn't very great.

Not long after, another group of people came. These were representatives from the forces in the Pill Alliance who wish to get rid of the Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion. Hence, they are willing to contribute crystals.

Without waiting too long, 100 thousand crystals were gathered. Surprisingly, Li Baoguan seemed calm about it as if being expelled wasn't a big deal.

Now that the Pill Alliance has reclaimed the land deed, they have given a few days for Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion to pack up and leave. They are not afraid of the Dragon Gate building cities nearby because there's a rule stating that no one else can build cities close to someone else's city, or they will face joint sanctions from powerful forces.

While the Evil Dragon Graveyard is not too far away, they can build cities there. However, Pill Alliance isn't worried about it because they think Dragon Gate's appeal only targets a small portion of people. Besides, they believe that Dragon Gate wouldn't be able to sustain the supply of cheap pills by themselves and will eventually collapse. Of course, no one would open shops in the cities of Dragon Gate because Pill Alliance won't allow such things to happen.

Pill Alliance is only worried that Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion might change the central area of Pill City. Hence, they are rushing to reclaim it because it would be quite embarrassing for them if Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion were able to make Pill City the most bustling place. They believe that Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion's pills would only sustain for a short period, and during this time, it might turn Pill City into the most lively place.

Li Baoguan packed up everything in Dragon Descending Pill Pavilion and left. Duan Sanchang, Yan Yanran, and Lanlan continued hiding inside Pill City.

Shen Xiang had planned earlier and is now returning to the Evil Dragon Graveyard, wanting to see how the Earth Heart Race has fared in building Dragon Gate.

The Evil Dragon Graveyard is enveloped by a giant dragon made of dark energy, protecting the entire dragon vein and making it hard for others to enter. Even if someone tries to spy using their spiritual sense, they would be countered by the powerful force of the black dragon.

Shen Xiang walked through the fog and arrived at the center of Evil Dragon Graveyard, only to be shocked by the drastic changes within this area! Within months, a city was built. The entire city is guarded by two enormous black dragons, their bodies towering up to twenty or more feet tall. Their black scales shine with a deadly luster, emitting strange powers. Both majestic dragon heads open their huge mouths, staring straight at the gate entrance, revealing something in their mouths that seems capable of gathering and projecting powerful energy.

The gate remains closed. However, when Shen Xiang came under the gate, the huge black doors opened, revealing numerous ancient and elegant houses. Staring at the gate entrance, he saw a straight stone road stretching far ahead, immediately bringing forth an imposing atmosphere. At the end of this road lies a magnificent grand palace, with two large stone pillars standing erect at its gates. A golden dragon coiled around them. Behind and beside the palace is a vast architectural complex, leaving him awed.

Shen Xiang didn't explain how the palace was built because he knew that the ancestors of Earth Heart Race were under Ten Heavenly Emperor's command, responsible for mining crystals and building houses. He didn't expect them to be so proficient, assuming that the entire Earth Heart Race was involved in this construction and worked day and night!

Shen Xiang didn't find anyone from Earth Heart Race here, but he came to the architectural complex and found a grand palace there. In the middle of the vast hall, there was a hole leading down to the dragon vein below.

In another hall nearby, there was also a teleportation array that can bring one down!

When Shen Xiang came to the dragon vein below, he only saw the Earth Heart Race people mining crystals leisurely. It was as simple for them as playing with sand, considering the abundance of crystals here!

Feili walked over to Shen Xiang with a smile upon seeing him arrived.

“Grandmaster, I remember you mentioned that you would build a sect called Dragon Gate. So, we did it here. It's basically done now; the only thing lacking is a bit of liveliness. You need to add plants and trees here, as there are numerous places you can plant them. Then you won't need to use the black fog constantly.”

Shen Xiang complimented, “Elder Feili, your Earth Heart Race is really impressive. I was quite surprised!”

Feili chuckled, “It's nothing. We're tired of spending so much time underground and are happy to finally have something productive to do! Dragon Gate can accommodate roughly twenty thousand people, which is about the number of troops Ten Heavenly Emperor had at its peak.”

Shen Xiang asked, “How did you manage to do it so quickly Besides, the materials used seem very good!”

“The construction materials are sourced from the Earth Core. The rocks down there are very sturdy, and we've dug many tunnels over the years to store them as bricks. This makes it easy for us when we need materials,” Feili brought Shen Xiang to his residence.

Shen Xiang realized that Earth Heart Race isn't just good at mining; they're also proficient in construction, forging, and array setting. For instance, they know how to set up teleportation arrays using the power of dragon veins without consuming much energy.

Earth Heart Race played an important role when they followed Ten Heavenly Emperor. Without his followers, he wouldn't have achieved imperial status either, which is why they're cursed like the Duan family. As loyal followers of Ten Heavenly Emperor who managed to survive till now, they have extraordinary power. Moreover, the number of people in Earth Heart Race isn't small either; Duan family only has around ten or so members now.

Feili had mentioned his loyalty to Shen Xiang before, and now he calls him Grandmaster. He's also an elder of Dragon Gate, making Earth Heart Race the first batch of disciples in Shen Xiang's Dragon Gate.

“Elder Feili, is there a way for Earth Heart Race to be rid of its curse” Every time he thought about the curse that Earth Heart Race has endured for decades, Shen Xiang couldn't help but feel sympathetic.

“This can only be done by someone reaching Ten Heavenly Emperor's level. However, we believe you can do it. We've survived so long due to our tenacity, waiting for that day!” Feili said.

Shen Xiang nodded, “One day, I'll make you see the sun again!”

Shen Xiang then discussed with Feili about building Dragon City near Evil Dragon Graveyard. Since they were bored from mining crystals and there's no need for so many crystals now, Feili was happy about it. Plus, their designed buildings can finally see the light of day.irit was recovering fast under the Heaven Refining Technique’s cultivation method that allowed it to heal itself.“With your strength, this divine prison should not be able to trap you.
