Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 399: Waving a Hand to Annihilate Ten Thousand Foes!
In General Fuyun’s view, Lin Xuan had only survived through sheer luck. It was impossible for him to control the array. He’s just bluffing!
"You’re the ridiculous ones," Lin Xuan said coldly. "Who told you the Moon Fairy won? Who told you the Dragon Vein belongs to the Moon Fairy? This Dragon Vein is clearly in my hands. I am its true master!"
Hearing Lin Xuan’s words, everyone was dumbfounded. Is it true? Has this kid really taken control of the Dragon Vein? Could it be that the Moon Fairy didn’t win? Did this kid win instead? This is too shocking! Too unbelievable!
"Nonsense." The Hidden Moon Commander snorted. He knew the Moon Fairy’s true origins; she was a prodigy from the Holy Land. How could this kid possibly snatch the Dragon Vein from her? It’s absolutely impossible for him to succeed.
Even the Dragon Commander said anxiously, "Champion Marquis, this is no time for boasting! You must leave now, or it will be too late!"
"There’s really no need to flee," Lin Xuan said with a smile. "Dragon Commander, don’t worry. I will now activate the Dragon Vein and kill them all."
Upon hearing this, the entire crowd was shocked once again. The warriors of the Long Ming Legion exchanged uncertain glances. Is the Champion Marquis telling the truth? Has he really mastered the Dragon Vein?
The Green Mountain Dragon General and the others were extremely worried. If Lin Xuan was lying, the blow to their morale would be devastating. At that point, they would fall into despair, lose all fighting spirit, and be left with no strength to resist. What awaited them would be total annihilation!
The soldiers of the Hidden Moon Country also cried out in alarm. "Gods, what did I just hear?"
"He’s going to activate the Dragon Vein to kill us with it?"
"Is this real? Did I hear that right?"
"Everyone, don’t worry!" General Fuyun roared. "This kid is bluffing! It’s impossible for him to have obtained the Dragon Vein!"
The Hidden Moon Commander gave a cold snort. "That’s right. Listen to my command! Seal off the Dragon Vein and don’t let a single person from the Long Ming Legion escape. This time, I will wipe them out in one fell swoop!"
"So that’s how it is. The kid’s just bragging."
"Hmph, I knew it. How could he possibly control the Dragon Vein?"
"And use it to destroy us? In his dreams!"
The warriors of the Hidden Moon Country sneered, drew their swords, and charged toward the Long Ming Legion.
It’s over. The Dragon Commander’s heart sank. The situation looked disastrous for them; it seemed they were about to suffer devastating losses.
But at that very moment, Lin Xuan’s voice rang out, "Activate the array! Destroy the Hidden Moon Country!"
BOOM! The earth trembled as the Dragon Vein erupted with light. A dragon’s roar echoed through the heavens, causing the blood in everyone’s veins to roil. The soldiers of the Hidden Moon Country halted, their expressions a mixture of suspicion and uncertainty. What’s happening? The Dragon Vein was actually activated!
The next moment, a Dragon Shadow burst forth from the Dragon Vein and charged toward the Hidden Moon Country’s army. The Dragon Shadow spewed a vast wave of ice that swept forward.
"No! Run!"
The men of the Hidden Moon Country turned to flee.
"This can’t be!" General Fuyun’s eyes nearly popped out of his head. That kid really controls the array? He wasn’t bluffing? How could this be happening? I clearly saw the Moon Fairy emerge safely! Why is *this* kid the one controlling the array?
General Fuyun was utterly stupefied.
The Hidden Moon Commander’s face contorted in horror. "Damn it, the intelligence was wrong! Retreat!"
He roared and turned to run, but it was already too late. Wherever the Dragon Shadow passed, everything was frozen solid. In an instant, the Hidden Moon Commander became an ice sculpture. He was not the only one; General Fuyun and every last warrior from the Hidden Moon Country were instantly flash-frozen.
A forest of ice sculptures now stood upon the land. Within the ice, the terrified and despairing expressions of the Hidden Moon Country’s warriors were permanently locked in place.
The entire scene was shocking. The soldiers of the Long Ming Legion were dumbstruck. Gods, what just happened? What did we just witness? The entire army of the Hidden Moon Country... annihilated! Wiped out in an instant! This is unbelievable!
The Green Tiger Dragon General felt as if he were dreaming. "Did... did we win?" he stammered.
"Looks like we won," the Flying Dragon General replied, completely stunned.
The Green Mountain Dragon General drew in a sharp breath. "Marquis, you really mastered the Dragon Vein!"
"Hahahaha! Well done, Champion Marquis!" The Dragon Commander threw his head back and laughed heartily. He had been terrified just moments before, sinking into despair. He never imagined that Lin Xuan would pull off such a miraculous comeback. It turned out Lin Xuan hadn’t been bluffing at all; he truly had mastered the Dragon Vein! This was wonderful, simply wonderful!
"We won! We won!"
The other warriors erupted into cheers. Their shouts shook the heavens and echoed in every direction. It hadn’t been easy. Just moments ago, they were in despair, certain they were doomed. Yet, against all odds, they had won.
And it was all thanks to the Champion Marquis!
They excitedly chanted the Champion Marquis’s name, their eyes filled with reverence when they looked at him. The Champion Marquis had now become a god-like existence in their eyes.
The Wangyue Pavilion Master was completely stunned. That young man has created another miracle. Just how many miracles has he performed? I’ve lost count. He sighed in admiration. He truly is the light of Great Xia!
The cheers continued for a long time, the soldiers too excited to calm down.
Finally, the Dragon Commander stepped forward and announced, "All soldiers, hear my command! Clean the battlefield and secure the Dragon Vein!"
Only then did the soldiers manage to suppress their excitement and begin clearing the battlefield. They needed to remove the frozen warriors of the Hidden Moon Country. The others began setting up camp, preparing to move their base near the Dragon Vein. From now on, this land was the territory of the Great Xia Country.
The Dragon Commander said excitedly, "Marquis, you have performed a great service this time. I will be sure to report this in detail to the Emperor so that he may reward you handsomely. Perhaps you’ll even be appointed the guardian of this Dragon Vein."
Lin Xuan smiled and handed the key to the array to the Dragon Commander. "Even if I were to become the guardian, I wouldn’t stay here for long."
"Marquis, you’re leaving?" The Dragon Commander was taken aback. "But we’ve just acquired this Dragon Vein. Don’t you want to cultivate here and absorb its Dragon Dao Power?" He remembered that Lin Xuan walked the path of a Dragon Warrior and surely needed immense amounts of Dragon Dao Power. He should have been eager to stay here and cultivate.
But Lin Xuan shook his head. The strongest energy within this Dragon Vein was the Power of the Candle Dragon, which he had already absorbed. Therefore, staying here was of no further use to him. He needed to find new sources of Dragon Dao Power to advance his Ten Thousand Dragon Body.
"I have other matters to attend to," Lin Xuan said without further explanation.
The Dragon Commander sighed. "Very well. In that case, I shall hold onto this key for now. But I will still petition the Emperor to have you appointed as the guardian."
Lin Xuan then prepared to depart. He planned to go to Flame Mountain to claim the Green Lotus Heart Fire. It was an Anomalous Fire he had long dreamed of acquiring. He had been unable to absorb it before, but now that he possessed a second Dragon Soul, the time was right.
With that, Lin Xuan left, and news of the battle began to spread.
「The Imperial Palace.」
Upon receiving the report, the Emperor laughed uproariously.
"Come! Convey my decree! Appoint Lin Xuan as General Long Ming! Award him ten thousand acres of fertile land and ten thousand taels of gold! Appoint Lin Xuan as the Guardian of the Candle Dragon Vein! Three-tenths of all Dragon Crystals extracted from the vein shall belong to Lin Xuan!"
When this imperial decree was announced, the world was shaken.
"Gods! What’s going on? Lin Xuan has been appointed again!"
"Isn’t he the Champion Marquis? Now he’s been made a General too!"
"Damn, what other earth-shaking feat has Lin Xuan accomplished now?"
At that moment, the entire Great Xia Country was in an uproar. Everyone was incredibly curious and scrambled to find out more information.
"Lin Xuan must have done something unbelievable to be appointed again."
"Damn it, what could it have been?"
"Does anyone know?"
"What are you all getting so excited about? It must be someone else with the same name. This Lin Xuan can’t be the Champion Marquis."
"That’s right, I think so too. The Champion Marquis can’t be that powerful."
Many people were skeptical. Chu Yue, for instance, refused to believe it. The people from the Celestial King’s Mansion believed it even less. In their minds, it had to be a case of a different person with the same name. The Lin Xuan who was appointed General couldn’t possibly be the Champion Marquis Lin Xuan they knew.
The Champion Marquis, Lin Xuan, that powerful? Absolutely impossible!
