Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 380: Annihilating the Commandant!
Staring at the ground covered in Black Water Mystical Serpents, Zhao Xing’s eyes nearly popped out of his head.
What the hell is going on? This kid actually carries so many Black Water Mystical Serpents with him! And he released them all!
"Are you crazy? If you release them, you’ll die too!" Zhao Xing shouted. "Are you trying to take us down with you?"
"Take you down with me?" Lin Xuan laughed. "You think too highly of yourself. What makes you think you’re qualified to perish with me?"
Lin Xuan snapped his fingers and commanded the Black Water Mystical Serpents, "Kill them!"
Zhao Xing frowned. This kid must be an idiot. What is he doing? Ordering the Black Water Mystical Serpents?
He had never seen anyone capable of commanding Black Water Mystical Serpents, though he knew some had managed to capture them. This kid must have used some special method to capture a large number of them, storing them in a Spiritual Artifact to be released at a critical moment. It was a classic strategy of killing with a borrowed knife.
But the move was incredibly dangerous, as the serpents could just as easily turn on him. It was a mutually destructive strategy, one meant to take everyone down together.
As for *commanding* the Black Water Mystical Serpents? What a joke. Not even a King can do that, so how could a mere Martial General?
But in the next instant, all the Black Water Mystical Serpents on the ground turned their heads, their cold eyes locking onto Zhao Xing.
In that moment, the hair on Zhao Xing’s entire body stood on end.
How is this possible? These Black Water Mystical Serpents really seem to be taking orders! Damn it, how could this be happening? This kid actually has a way to control them. My god, this is too heaven-defying!
He had never heard of anyone being able to control Black Water Mystical Serpents. Not even a King could do it.
But now, a young man had actually succeeded.
How did he do it? Could I have guessed wrong? Is this boy not a genius from the Great Xia Country? Could he be a prodigy from the Demon Race? I’ve heard that some Demon Beasts can take human form after consuming a Transformation Pill. Could the young man before me be a transformed Demon Beast? Don’t tell me he’s actually a powerful Black Water Mystical Serpent in human form!
At this thought, Zhao Xing gasped.
"A misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding," he said hastily. "We’ll leave immediately and never set foot here again for the rest of our lives. Please, spare us."
After speaking, Zhao Xing turned to flee.
"Kill him," Lin Xuan ordered.
The surrounding Black Water Mystical Serpents instantly shot forward, transforming into streaks of black lightning as they lunged for Zhao Xing.
Zhao Xing’s face turned green with terror. He used all his strength to escape, but it was useless.
Dozens of Black Water Mystical Serpents latched onto him, sinking their fangs into his flesh.
The next moment, a bloodcurdling scream echoed as Zhao Xing collapsed. His body turned black and quickly dissolved into a pool of dark liquid.
"Kill everyone from the Hidden Moon Country!" Lin Xuan issued another command.
The Black Water Mystical Serpents charged madly toward the warriors on the other side.
"Ah, run!" the warriors of the Hidden Moon Country shrieked, dropping their arms and armor as they turned to flee in disarray.
However, it was futile.
The Black Water Mystical Serpents were too fast. They instantly caught up to the fleeing warriors. A single bite was fatal.
Within seconds, all the warriors lay dead on the ground, succumbing to the poison.
"All of you, return," Lin Xuan commanded again.
Over a hundred Black Water Mystical Serpents slithered back to him.
With a wave of his sleeve, Lin Xuan stored them away and turned to leave.
He was incredibly excited. These Black Water Mystical Serpents were so powerful they could easily kill a Five-Star Grandmaster. It was unbelievable.
Unfortunately, controlling them consumed an immense amount of Dragon Dao Power. In just those few seconds, Lin Xuan had used up two-thirds of his reserves. He estimated that at his current strength, he could only control over a hundred Black Water Mystical Serpents for five or six seconds at most. After that, his power would be completely depleted. The consumption was just too great.
Lin Xuan returned to the ruins with great speed, sat down cross-legged, and began to silently recover his power.
At night, the ruins were pitch-black. The members of the Long Ming Legion didn’t dare light torches, as the light would be too conspicuous and could attract other Demon Beasts. In such a dark environment, no one noticed Lin Xuan had even left.
The night passed without incident.
The next day, as the sun rose, Lin Xuan’s expended power had fully recovered.
Song Yan and the others also got to their feet. "We have to leave quickly," they said. "It’ll be trouble if the people from the Hidden Moon Country return in force."
Lu Xiu nodded. He found Elder Chen and said, "We have to go. There might be a Myriarch from the Hidden Moon Country nearby."
Elder Chen’s expression changed upon hearing this. "What? A Myriarch? That’s a Five-Star Grandmaster! We’d be no match for him even if we joined forces."
They prepared to leave to ensure Lin Xuan’s safety.
But Lin Xuan heard them and asked, "Leave? Why should we leave? We came to investigate these ruins, and we haven’t found anything conclusive yet. Why leave now?"
Song Yan tried to persuade him, "Marquis, when Huang Tao left yesterday, he said there was a Myriarch nearby. It will be dangerous if he decides to attack."
"Indeed," Lu Xiu added. "A Myriarch is a Five-Star Grandmaster. We are no match for him."
Elder Chen chimed in, "In a situation like this, it’s better to be safe than sorry. Let’s return first and ask for an expert from the legion to escort us back later."
Lin Xuan shook his head. "Going back and forth would waste too much time."
"But it’s safer this way!" Duan Lingtian insisted. "Only a Myriarch can fight a Myriarch! We are no match!"
Lin Xuan just laughed. "Don’t worry. The Myriarch from the Hidden Moon Country has already been killed. He won’t be a threat to us anymore. Let’s just focus on exploring this place."
"What? Killed?" Everyone was stunned. "By whom?"
"By me!" Lin Xuan pointed to himself with a smile. "I’ve already eliminated the threat for you, so you have nothing to worry about. Just explore in peace."
Lin Xuan killed a Myriarch!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The entire ruin fell eerily silent.
Song Yan gave a wry smile. "Marquis, this is no time for bragging. We really must leave quickly."
He didn’t believe a word of it.
He admitted that Lin Xuan was strong. He had killed three Centurions earlier and had even defeated Duan Lingtian, the legion’s top genius. But no matter how strong Lin Xuan was, he was still just a Three-Star Grandmaster!
And what was the strength of a Myriarch?
A Five-Star Grandmaster!
That was two entire Great Realms higher than a Three-Star Grandmaster. No matter how powerful Lin Xuan was, it was impossible for him to kill a Myriarch. He likely wouldn’t even be able to block a single one of his moves.
So, in his view, Lin Xuan had to be boasting, likely because he wanted to stay and continue exploring.
Ah, so he was just bragging, everyone realized.
That made more sense. How could Lin Xuan possibly kill a Myriarch?
Lu Xiu said, "Marquis, we must leave at once. The Myriarch could arrive at any moment. If he does, we won’t be able to escape, and we’ll all die for sure."
The others all chimed in, urging him to leave.
"I’m telling the truth," Lin Xuan insisted. "I really did kill the Myriarch."
Song Yan and the others were about to lose their minds.
"Champion Marquis, I’m begging you, please don’t boast at a time like this!"
Lin Xuan said flatly, "If you don’t believe me, go take a look five miles from here. The Myriarch’s body should still be there."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned again.
Could it be true? He gave such specific details.
Impossible! The Champion Marquis must be bragging, Song Yan thought, shaking his head.
Lu Xiu also sighed. Although Lin Xuan had created many miracles before and was incredibly formidable, it was still impossible for him to kill a Five-Star Grandmaster. The gap between them was just too vast.
Nevertheless, they dispatched two warriors to scout the location five miles away.
Song Yan said, "Marquis, if there’s no Myriarch’s body five miles from here, you must leave with us."
Lu Xiu shook his head and sighed.
Elder Chen said nothing, but he had already started packing his things, preparing to head back. It was obvious none of them believed Lin Xuan. They were all convinced he was boasting.
Duan Lingtian rolled his eyes. This Lin Xuan is certainly talented, but he loves to brag, doesn’t he? He’s boasting to the high heavens. If he really managed to kill a Myriarch, I’ll eat every single stone in these ruins!
