Lin Xuan activated the Ten Thousand Dragon Body! With a series of sharp cracks, Dragon Scales emerged on his body, covering his entire form. From a distance, he seemed to have transformed into a human-shaped true dragon. A powerful aura exploded from him.

RUMBLE!

The very void seemed unable to withstand this force.

"Heavens, what is this?" Fang Qingyu exclaimed. The expressions of the ten Fang Clan experts also changed drastically.

One of the experts cried out, "No way! Could he be a Dragon Warrior?"

His words left the other Grandmasters utterly shocked. Could the legendary Dragon Warrior have really appeared?

"Impossible," the leading elder shouted coldly. "Don’t talk nonsense. How could this boy be a Dragon Warrior? He must be wearing a suit of dragon-shaped battle armor that just makes him look like one. He can’t possibly be a real Dragon Warrior, so you don’t need to worry. The Flame War God we ten have summoned is more than enough to defeat him!"

"Oh, so that’s it! He’s just wearing dragon-shaped battle armor."

"You scared me to death! I really thought he was a Dragon Warrior."

"If you’re not a Dragon Warrior, what makes you think you can fight us?"

The Fang Clan Grandmasters were no longer afraid. Their confidence surged as they fully mobilized the Flame War God. The nine fists of the Flame War God howled through the air, hurtling toward Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan took a step forward, a dragon’s roar erupting from his body. At this moment, he was like a young Dragon God, reigning supreme over the world. He clenched his hand into a fist and thrust it forward.

"World-Ending Flood Dragon Fist! Double fists shock the heavens!"

This time, the power was even more terrifying. Lin Xuan’s fist swept out, and he seemed to transform completely into a Flood Dragon, coiling through the heavens and the earth. A world-destroying force erupted from him.

Fang Qingyu’s body trembled. She actually felt an impulse to kneel.

The ten Fang Clan elders also felt their scalps tingle with fear, overcome with the urge to kneel. They roared, trying their best to resist this oppressive pressure while desperately commanding the Flame War God.

In the next moment, Lin Xuan’s attack collided with the Flame War God.

BOOM!

The world seemed to shatter. A destructive force swept out in all directions in a sky-shattering confrontation. An immense dragon power surged around Lin Xuan, and Dragon Shadows even circled him, making him appear like the master of all Divine Dragons.

With a deafening crash, the nine meteors in front of him could no longer hold. The first one shattered into dust, followed quickly by the second, and then the third.

How is this possible? The expressions of the Fang Clan Grandmasters turned grim. He actually shattered our attack! What kind of joke is this? He can really contend with the Flame War God! Could it be that he’s not wearing Divine Dragon Armor... but is a real Dragon Warrior?! They were on the verge of madness. This is insane!

"We have to go all out!"

The ten Grandmasters ignited their Spiritual Power, and the Flame War God’s aura surged once more as it counterattacked wildly. But it was no use. Lin Xuan’s punch was truly terrifying—invincible and world-destroying.

He smashed through all nine meteors and then slammed his fist heavily into the Flame War God. The colossal phantom of the war god shattered instantly, dissolving into countless sparks of fire that scattered in every direction.

The ten Grandmasters were struck as if by lightning. They all tumbled to the ground, spitting out mouthfuls of blood. They were defeated. Even with the ten of them combined, they were no match for him.

How could this happen?

"Fall back! We have to escape back to the clan and report to the Ancestors!"

"He is a Dragon Warrior!"

"We must capture him!"

"We must find out how this boy became a Dragon Warrior!"

The ten of them frantically fled in all directions. As long as one of them could get away, they could deliver the message.

"Trying to escape?" Lin Xuan sneered, extending his hand. In his palm rested a Divine Sword: the Spirit Dragon Nine Skies Sword.

Lin Xuan activated the Spirit Dragon Nine Skies Sword, unleashing ten streams of Sword Qi. Ten Dragon Shadows pierced through the heavens and the earth, shooting out in all directions.

THUD! THUD! THUD! THUD!

Screams of agony echoed from the distant void. One after another, the ten Grandmasters of the Fang Clan were pierced by the Sword Qi and fell from the sky, all of them dead. A rain of blood fell as the earth itself seemed to groan.

The scene was extraordinarily shocking. Fang Qingyu watched, stunned. Although she had witnessed Lin Xuan’s might before, seeing it again left her just as amazed.

Lin Xuan collected the Storage Rings from the bodies, then turned to Fang Qingyu’s side.

"Continue leading the way," he said calmly.

Fang Qingyu nodded emphatically and turned to lead on.

「One day later.」

They finally arrived at the Pan Mountain Range. Lin Xuan looked ahead at the overlapping mountain ridges, which were stacked one upon another. It didn’t look particularly special.

"This is the Pan Mountain Range," Fang Qingyu said from beside him. "It looks unremarkable, but there must be secrets hidden here."

Lin Xuan nodded and asked, "How many experts does the Fang Clan have here? What’s the strongest cultivation level?"

Fang Qingyu replied, "There aren’t many of us from the Fang Clan here, only a few dozen. The strongest is just a Five-Star Grandmaster."

A Five-Star Grandmaster? Lin Xuan was stunned. That’s not very strong at all. If the Earth Dragon Pearl is really here, why would they only send a Five-Star Grandmaster to guard it?

Fang Qingyu explained, "Because the Pan Mountain Range is a very ordinary place, sending a Five-Star Grandmaster is normal. If a higher-level Grandmaster came, it might attract unwanted attention. I think my grandfather sent only a Five-Star Grandmaster precisely to avoid that."

So that’s how it is. Lin Xuan understood. He quickly descended to the ground below but didn’t immediately enter the Pan Mountain Range.

He gave an order to the Snake King: seal the Pan Mountain Range to prevent anyone from the Fang Clan from escaping. The Snake King was a King-level expert; sealing a mountain range was a simple task for him. He spat out a cloud of cold air that drifted out in all directions.

Soon, the Snake King’s voice rang out, "Young Master, rest assured. I have sealed this mountain range. No one can escape."

"Very good." Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction and then said to Fang Qingyu, "Continue to lead the way!"

The two entered the mountains. Inside, there were numerous stone houses, occupied by people from the Fang Clan. In the depths of the mountain lay a deep pit with a passage leading down into an Underground Palace. This was a place ordinary Fang Clan Grandmasters were not qualified to enter; only their leader, Elder Fang Hai, was permitted inside. It could be said that this was the forbidden area of the Pan Mountain Range.

Inside this Underground Palace stood the statues of nine giant dragons, their heads all gathered together. Hovering above their heads was an earth-yellow, fist-sized pearl. It exuded a heavy, chaotic aura.

Nine dragons guarding a single pearl! The sight was truly shocking.

Suddenly, the earth-yellow pearl released a terrifying light, and a dragon’s roar echoed from within. The ground trembled, and the entire Underground Palace shook. Even the Pan Mountain Range itself vibrated slightly.

「Outside the Underground Palace.」

The Fang Clan members were stunned. What happened? Did something happen in the Underground Palace? They were incredibly shocked but did not dare to enter.

At this moment, a tall figure rushed out. It was their leader, Fang Hai. When he heard the roar, his expression changed drastically. Not good! Something’s wrong in the Underground Palace! Could something have happened to the Earth Dragon Pearl? With that thought, he quickly rushed over and into the Underground Palace.

Once inside, he approached the nine giant dragon statues and bowed respectfully. "Senior Earth Dragon, what’s the matter? Has something happened?"

It turned out that this pearl was indeed the Earth Dragon Pearl. A deep voice emanated from within it. "I sensed that someone just sealed the Pan Mountain Range. Is someone planning to attack this place? How is your Fang Clan guarding it? An enemy is here, and you don’t even know?"

What? Fang Hai was incredibly shocked. Someone wants to attack this place? Do they intend to steal the Earth Dragon Pearl? His expression changed dramatically.

He quickly said, "Senior Earth Dragon, rest assured, we will defend this place with our lives."

The Earth Dragon snorted coldly. "Go and investigate what happened immediately. If there really is an enemy, kill them on sight! Also, I will send the Shadow Stone Race to assist you!"

"Understood. We will go and investigate right away."

Fang Hai turned and left. After exiting the Underground Palace, he immediately summoned the Fang Clan’s Grandmasters. "Everyone, be on your guard and prepare for battle! An enemy is approaching!"

At the same time, another group of people walked over. These people were tall, each like a giant, with black, rock-like patterns on their bodies. They were the people of the Shadow Stone Race, the subordinates of the Earth Dragon. Their leader was a prominent figure of the Stone Race named Shi Jingang.

He smiled and said, "Brother Fang Hai, don’t worry. With me here, no one will dare to cause trouble."

His physique was known as the Vajra Body, which was said to be immensely powerful and have unmatched defense. When he transformed into a Vajra, he could guard the entrance to the Underground Palace, and no one could hope to enter, regardless of their power.

Fang Hai nodded, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

Just as they finished their arrangements, two figures flew over from a distance.

Someone is really here! Who in the world could it be? Fang Hai tensed as if facing a formidable foe, and the others also stared intently.

But soon, someone exclaimed, "Qingyu! Why is it you?"

"Elder Fang Hai, don’t worry! It’s Fairy Qingyu! She’s one of us."
