Ten Thousand Dragons Technique

Chapter 580: The Fire Dragon Pearl Is Mine!

Situ Hang also gasped. In his eyes, Lin Xuan was just a small ant, probably unable to even reach the first level. Yet, he had reached the sixth! Isn’t this too unbelievable? Am I seeing things?

Alliance Leader Tianyang also wore a look of shock. He knew Lin Xuan was talented, but he never expected his strength to be so heaven-defying. Not only had his opponent reached the sixth level, but his speed was simply ridiculous. Could it be that he isn’t afraid of the Soul Fire here?

BOOM.

Lin Xuan arrived nearby. Looking toward the Fire Dragon Pearl ahead, his eyes filled with boundless excitement. I’ve finally found it!

"This Fire Dragon Pearl is mine!"

Upon hearing Lin Xuan’s arrogant words, Situ Hang rolled his eyes. "Kid, are we invisible to you?"

Master Qingyou also snorted coldly. "You only made it here because of an Anomalous Fire. Do you really think you can match us in a contest of strength?"

Alliance Leader Tianyang frowned slightly, also feeling that perhaps Lin Xuan was getting a bit too conceited.

Yet Lin Xuan wore a confident expression. This is the Dragon Race’s Trial Tower. The treasures here can only be obtained by members of the Dragon Race or Dragon Warriors. Others simply cannot get them. And since I am the only Dragon Warrior here, only I can claim the prize. It’s ridiculous that these people still want to compete with me.

Lin Xuan ignored Situ Hang and the others. Instead, he gazed forward, carefully inspecting the scene before him. Finally, he started walking.

As he approached the Dragon Claw, it unexpectedly emitted a rumbling sound. The surrounding Soul Fire began forming characters in the air, floating there.

Lin Xuan looked up and found a message written above. "To obtain the Fire Dragon Pearl, you must activate all the Dragon Scales. The Dragon Claw in front has 1,000 Dragon Scales. Fully activating them will allow you to obtain the Fire Dragon Pearl. The method of activation is to inject flames."

So that’s how it is. Lin Xuan understood.

「Behind him」

Situ Hang and the other two also saw this information and exchanged glances, their eyes filled with excited gleams. It seems this is a contest of who has the more powerful flame.

If the rules were different, they might not have succeeded, but they were filled with confidence when it came to a contest of flames. They weren’t just top-tier nine-star Grandmasters; they were also powerful Alchemy Masters. Each of them possessed a fearsome, top-grade Spiritual Fire.

In a contest of flames, they had never feared anyone.

Lin Xuan, however, just laughed heartily. He turned and said to Situ Hang and the others, "I’d advise you all to give up. You have no advantage against me."

"I have an Anomalous Fire."

The Anomalous Fire is the King of Ten Thousand Flames, superior to all other flames, the most powerful existence. And I have two of them! How can these people possibly compare to me?

After hearing him, Situ Hang snorted coldly. "Kid, don’t be so arrogant. So what if you have an Anomalous Fire? You’re just a two-star Grandmaster; your Soul Power should only be at the second tier. How much of the Anomalous Fire’s power can you even harness?"

"Exactly," Master Qingyou snorted coldly. "Don’t think that just because you’re good at alchemy, the power of your Anomalous Fire is strong. They’re completely different things. Alchemy requires control, but what’s needed now is explosive power. Do you have that? Can the power of your flame even compare to ours?"

He simply didn’t believe Lin Xuan could surpass him when it came to flames.

Even Alliance Leader Tianyang shook his head and said, "Young Master Lin, an Anomalous Fire is strong, but its effectiveness depends on who wields it. Your cultivation is too weak to bring out its true power. I’m afraid you won’t be able to get the Fire Dragon Pearl this time."

The Soul Power of all three of them was at the tenth tier, and their use of flames was far beyond Lin Xuan’s. Unless Lin Xuan’s soul was on the same level as theirs, only then could he leverage the advantage of an Anomalous Fire to surpass them. But that was impossible.

Lin Xuan laughed after hearing them. "Your Soul Power is strong, but I have a trump card too. And my trump card is beyond anything you can imagine."

"What trump card?" Master Qingyou rolled his eyes. "Isn’t it just the Anomalous Fire? We already know about that. Relying on one Anomalous Fire won’t be enough to surpass us."

"What if it’s not just one?" Lin Xuan smiled.

"What do you mean? Don’t tell me you have two Anomalous Fires? Are you kidding me?" Master Qingyou nearly laughed to tears. "Kid, you’re quite the braggart, aren’t you?"

Situ Hang snorted coldly and shook his head. "You fool. Obtaining one Anomalous Fire is already luck that defies the heavens. Dreaming of having two is just that—a dream. I’ve never heard of anyone obtaining two Anomalous Fires. Not even a Pill Emperor could do it."

Even Alliance Leader Tianyang covered his face, thinking Lin Xuan’s boasting was too outrageous.

They stopped paying attention to Lin Xuan and began meditating to restore their strength. The journey here had consumed too much of their energy, and now they needed to recover to their peak condition. Situ Hang and Alliance Leader Tianyang also began to regulate their breathing and energy. This time they must succeed; failure is not an option.

「Outside the Treasure Tower」

While they were recovering, the crowd outside the Treasure Tower was buzzing with discussion.

"Damn, that Young Master Lin is truly heaven-defying! He actually reached the sixth level!"

"It’s truly unbelievable."

"Yeah, who would’ve thought a two-star Grandmaster could come this far."

"Holy cow, Young Master Lin has met up with Situ Hang’s group! They’ve stopped. They must be competing for the Dragon Pearl."

"I wonder who will get the Dragon Pearl?"

Everyone stared at the phantoms of light projected from the Treasure Tower. These phantoms displayed the scene inside, and although it wasn’t perfectly clear, they could get a general idea.

"What? To get the Dragon Pearl, you have to activate 1,000 Dragon Scales?"

"I wonder who can do it?"

"It must be our Master Qingyou!" said someone from the Jiuyou Alchemy Alliance.

"I think it’ll be our Elder Situ Hang," a person from the Fire Dragon Sect retorted.

"It will be our Alliance Leader," someone from the Tianyang Alchemy Alliance said.

Wan Er added, "And Young Master Lin! I think he can still perform a miracle this time!"

"Impossible," You Ruo snorted coldly. "I admit, this kid is indeed strong, truly heaven-defying. But no matter how strong he is, he can’t be a match for nine-star Grandmasters. I don’t believe he can surpass three nine-star Grandmasters this time."

"That’s right, I don’t believe it either," Huo Yuner chimed in, shaking his head.

No matter how extraordinary Lin Xuan was, he had to have a limit. Defeating an eight-star Grandmaster was already his limit; he couldn’t possibly be stronger than a nine-star Grandmaster.

The others were also discussing this amongst themselves, all feeling that Lin Xuan must have finally reached his limit. It was impossible for him to succeed again; he couldn’t be a match for the nine-star Grandmasters.

The Dragon Pearl would definitely be obtained by one of the three nine-star Grandmasters. Although they weren’t sure which one it would be, they were certain it wouldn’t be Lin Xuan. After all, he was the least qualified among them.
