Chapter 512 The Secret of the Tianshan Snow Region: Sending Away the Poisonous Dragon's Spinal Marrow
Chu Yao maintained her composure and elegance, a faint smile on her lips, as if she possessed an innate noble air.
Her family background was illustrious; her grandfather was a renowned medicine god among humans, whose alchemy skills reached a divine level, unmatched by anyone.
Her brother, also the vice dean of the School of Pharmacy at Shenlong University, is exceptionally talented and is hailed as the future second God of Medicine.
With such a family background, Chu Yao naturally held a high position and was respected by others.
However, Jiang Chen never understood why Chu Yao would choose to become a guide and do interpreting work.
Given her status and position, she shouldn't lack points. Could it be that Chu Yao simply finds it fun and wants to experience a different life?
Chu Yao didn't offer much explanation, and Jiang Chen didn't delve into it either.
Chu Yao smiled radiantly and said to Jiang Chen, "Junior Brother Jiang, you've been quite the star lately!" Her tone seemed to carry a hint of teasing, but Jiang Chen didn't feel the slightest displeasure.
Recalling the minor unpleasantness of his last visit to the Medicine God, Jiang Chen had already let it go. He was not a narrow-minded person and would not hold grudges over such trivial matters.
Jiang Chen said softly, "Hello, senior. Are you here to accept another mission?"
Chu Yao smiled and replied, "Yes, does Junior Jiang need a guide?" Her tone was relaxed and natural, as if it were just a casual greeting.
Jiang Chen didn't stand on ceremony and said directly, "Okay, I happen to have some questions I'd like to ask you."
"I'm looking for a dungeon that's good for leveling up. Could you recommend one, senior?" Jiang Chen asked.
Chu Yao looked at Jiang Chen seriously and analyzed, "Junior Brother Jiang is already level 53. After level 50, leveling up will indeed become much slower."
"With Junior Jiang's strength, you need to find a dungeon with lots of monsters and not too difficult. As for the equipment that drops, that's secondary." Chu Yao's analysis was very logical, and every point accurately hit Jiang Chen's thoughts.
What surprised Jiang Chen even more was that Chu Yao could tell his level at a glance, while he himself could not detect Chu Yao's level and profession.
This is enough to show that Chu Yao's level is at least much higher than his own. However, Chu Yao has never revealed her strength to outsiders, nor has she ever mentioned it.
Out of respect for his friend, Jiang Chen never asked him about it.
After Chu Yao's detailed analysis, she concluded: "Based on your requirements, there probably aren't any suitable dungeons in the Dungeon Hall."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a bit amused and exasperated. He never expected to face such a predicament.
There are hundreds of dungeons to choose from in the Dungeon Hall, but not a single one suits me.
Upon reflection, his requirements weren't actually that high. However, in Chu Yao's analysis, most dungeons were primarily about obtaining good equipment, with experience not being the most important factor.
These dungeons were carefully selected by the predecessors of Shenlong University before being included in the Dungeon Hall. They often have challenging characteristics and place far more emphasis on equipment than experience.
For most players, good equipment is indeed more important than experience points. After all, levels can be gradually increased over time, but good equipment is something that can't be obtained by chance.
However, Jiang Chen's situation was exactly the opposite. What he needed more was experience, not equipment. Chu Yao continued, "Although there aren't any suitable dungeons for you in the Dungeon Hall, there are still some options outside."
Jiang Chen did not interrupt Chu Yao, but listened quietly.
Chu Yao continued, "In the far north of the Divine Dragon Empire, there is a continuous snow-capped mountain range called the Heavenly Mountains. Hidden there is a little-known dungeon—the Heavenly Mountain Snow Region."
"Junior Jiang, do you know anything about this dungeon?" Chu Yao asked softly.
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, "I've heard about it. It's said to be an extremely difficult dungeon."
Chu Yao nodded and said, "That's right, the Tianshan Snow Region is indeed very difficult, but in return, it offers abundant experience and rare drops."
"This instance is perfect for those professionals who crave the ultimate challenge and experience. Moreover, it's said that some unknown secrets are hidden deep within the Tianshan Snow Region," Chu Yao's voice held a hint of mystery. Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with interest. "Oh? There are secrets?"
Chu Yao moved closer and whispered, "Yes, but I don't know the specifics. I only know that those professionals who successfully challenged the depths of the Tianshan Snow Region all gained extraordinary rewards."
Her words were full of allure, which made Jiang Chen's heart flutter.
Chu Yao smiled gently, as if she could see through Jiang Chen's thoughts, "Junior Brother Jiang, I believe you have the ability to uncover those secrets."
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, "Senior, you flatter me. I will do my best to try."
A sly glint flashed in Chu Yao's eyes. "However, the Tianshan Snow Region is quite challenging, so Junior Brother Jiang should make thorough preparations."
Jiang Chen nodded, "I will, thank you for reminding me, senior."
Chu Yao seemed quite satisfied with Jiang Chen's reaction, and her smile became even brighter. "Then I won't bother you any longer, Junior Jiang. I wish you all the best."
Chu Yao's reminder made him look forward to the snowy Tianshan Mountains even more, and at the same time made him realize that he needed to work harder to meet the challenges of the future.
Jiang Chen took out two bottles of liquid that shimmered with a ghostly light from his spatial ring; they were "highly poisonous dragon spinal cord".
"Senior, please pass these two bottles on to the Medicine God." He smiled and handed them to Chu Yao.
The highly venomous dragon's spinal cord swirled within the bottle, seemingly containing profound power and shimmering with an alluring light.
Chu Yao looked at the potion in her hand, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "What is this? It's so miraculous."
"This is the spinal cord of a highly poisonous dragon, which can neutralize most toxins. I hope that Senior Medicine God can research more uses for it, which may help in finding an antidote for corpse poison," Jiang Chen explained.
Chu Yao nodded and solemnly accepted the potion. "Thank you, Junior Brother Jiang. I will convey your kindness to Grandpa." Jiang Chen waved his hand. "You're welcome."
……
The Tianshan Snow Region is located in the far west of the Divine Dragon Empire. Its mountains are steep and shrouded in clouds and mist all year round.
At the foot of the mountains lies a small town called "Tianshan Town". It is the only way to reach the Tianshan Snowfield instance, and therefore a gathering place for many professionals.
The town's atmosphere is completely different from other places, filled with a strong sense of adventure and exploration.
As Jiang Chen stepped out of the town's teleportation array, he immediately sensed the unique atmosphere of the place.
A cold wind howled, but Jiang Chen felt no chill at all. His gaze swept across the street, landing on the various shops.
There are shops selling rare materials, blacksmith shops that offer equipment repair services, and taverns and restaurants that exude enticing aromas.
Jiang Chen walked down the street, taking in the atmosphere of daily life. Compared to the days he spent on the battlefield, this place seemed peaceful and tranquil.
He stopped, his gaze fixed on the entrance of a bar. A large group of professionals were gathered there, talking loudly, their laughter and cheers rising and falling.
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment before finally going inside. He wanted to experience the life of an ordinary professional, and temporarily forget about fighting and killing.
The bar was dimly lit, filled with the aroma of alcohol and smoke. Jiang Chen found a corner seat and ordered a glass of sake.
He looked around, observing the behavior and conversations of the other professionals. Some were talking about their recent dungeon loot, while others were sharing anecdotes from their adventures.
Jiang Chen listened quietly, savoring the atmosphere so different from that of battle. He felt as if he had become part of it, a part of it all.
In this unfamiliar place, he found a long-lost peace and relaxation.
Looking up into the distance, one can see the magnificent snow-capped Tianshan Mountains outside the city.
The majestic Tianshan Mountains, covered in snow, rise thousands of feet high.
The mountain range stretches for hundreds of miles and is one of the most expansive mountain ranges within the human territory.
Hidden within the mountains are numerous secret realms and dungeons, attracting countless adventurers.
Among them, the Tianshan snow-covered region is the most famous, renowned throughout the world.
Standing in Tianshan Town, one can only see the foot of Tianshan Mountain, while the area above the mountainside is shrouded in thick clouds and mist, making it impossible to see its true appearance.
To truly appreciate the full panorama of the Tianshan Mountains, one must climb them personally to experience their magnificent scenery.
Standing atop the city wall, gazing at the majestic Tianshan Mountains, Jiang Chen felt a surge of insignificance.
It was as if a strange aura was spreading through the Tianshan Mountains, making him feel as if he had seen it before.
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then muttered to himself, "This aura... could it be the aura of a god?"
He carefully sensed that aura and gradually realized that there must be gods on Mount Tian.
At least, some deity once left traces here.
Just as Jiang Chen was deep in thought, a voice suddenly came to his ear: "Young friend, seeing you so lost in thought, are you also awestruck by the magnificence of Tianshan?"
