Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 155: The Black Dog Strikes

It was a Soul attack! Lin Xuan was stunned. A Martial General can’t use Soul attacks. Who is attacking me? Is it a Grandmaster? Where would a Grandmaster come from? Is it someone from the Star Pavilion? He was instantly on high alert, as if facing a great enemy.

The black dog said, "Don’t worry. I’ll handle it. You don’t need to do a thing."

Lin Xuan nodded, finally able to relax. With the black dog taking action, success was guaranteed.

Meanwhile, Dream Butterfly and Shadowless Insect had also entered the palace. Seeing Lin Xuan sitting there cross-legged in a daze, Dream Butterfly spoke with disdain. "He has no power to resist at all. How boring. I thought he was supposed to be powerful."

The Shadowless Insect said, "Look at his cultivation—he’s just a Three-Star Martial General. He’s too weak. Do both of us really need to deal with someone like him?"

"Whatever, let’s just kill him quickly," Dream Butterfly said as she spread her wings and flew toward Lin Xuan, intent on crushing his Soul.

Just then, the ring on Lin Xuan’s hand flashed. A black light emerged, revealing a large black dog the size of a calf. It squatted there, its copper-bell eyes fixed on Dream Butterfly.

Where did this dog come from? Dream Butterfly was startled but quickly dismissed it. It’s just a dog. After all, she was a powerful Exotic Beast.

She flapped her wings, continuing to unleash her Soul Power, trying to plunge the black dog into an Illusion Realm as well.

"You dare to use Soul Power on this Saint?" the black dog’s disdainful voice rang out.

Dream Butterfly was utterly shocked. You’re not affected? That’s impossible! How can it block my Soul Power?

It continued to flap its wings, and an overwhelming torrent of multicolored light poured down toward the black dog.

The black dog simply raised a paw and swatted forward. SPLAT! Dream Butterfly was obliterated into fragments.

The entire process was as simple as squashing an ant.

In the distance, the Shadowless Insect witnessed this and was terrified. What? Dream Butterfly died just like that? How could this be? This big black dog is terrifying!

He didn’t dare to linger for a second longer and immediately turned to flee.

The black dog casually waved its paw again. A massive black shadow appeared in the void—a gigantic dog paw, like an ancient mountain, descending from the sky to strike at the Shadowless Insect.

The Shadowless Insect was scared out of his wits. "Spare me!" he cried out.

BANG! He was smacked to death.

So weak. No different from ants. The black dog retracted its paw, snorted coldly, and returned to the Great Emperor Ring.

Once Dream Butterfly died, Lin Xuan emerged from the Illusion Realm. He was astounded by what he saw. It was the first time he had ever seen the black dog in action. Its strength was truly unfathomable.

"Do you know where they came from?" Lin Xuan asked.

The black dog shook its head. "No idea. Just two little demons, not worth my attention.

"You don’t need to dwell on it. You just crippled that Song Tiange, so it must have been the Star Pavilion acting in secret. They’ve likely colluded with the Demon Race."

Lin Xuan nodded. He currently lacked the power to make an enemy of the entire Star Pavilion. It was better to focus on increasing his own strength first.

In the days that followed, Lin Xuan continued to cultivate.

「On the other side」

The Star Pavilion Master returned to the Heaven’s Path Institute and found Song Tiange.

"Disciple, I, your Master, have avenged you. Rest assured, that boy is already in hell."

"Really? That’s wonderful!" Song Tiange was overjoyed. His great enmity was finally avenged. He then asked, "Master, can my arm be restored?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"It’s very difficult right now. Unless your cultivation reaches the Martial Emperor realm, then your severed arm can regenerate.

"Or, we could find the legendary Life Lotus and use a Lotus Rhizome from it to fashion you a new arm."

Hearing this, Song Tiange fell into despair. He couldn’t meet either of those conditions. What am I supposed to do? How can I cultivate now? Damn it all! He gritted his teeth at the thought.

The Star Pavilion Master consoled him, "It’s not entirely hopeless. Although you can’t achieve these things, your Eldest Senior Brother, Chu Zhongtian, can.

"He will certainly become a Martial Emperor in the future. Perhaps he can even help you find the Life Lotus. When that time comes, your arm can be regenerated."

"Yes, Eldest Senior Brother can definitely do it." Song Tiange was filled with anticipation.

"For now, just rest and recover. Try practicing your Swordsmanship with your left hand."

The Star Pavilion Master offered a few more words of consolation before leaving. His next stop was the Imperial City, where he intended to find the Dan King and request a Transformation Pill.

However, before he could act, an event occurred that startled not only the Heaven’s Path Institute but the entirety of the Great Xia Country.

An ancient relic had suddenly begun to emit a brilliant golden light, illuminating the heavens and the earth. This phenomenon alarmed countless people.

Nearby family clans investigated and discovered that the ancient relic—an unusual one known as the Heaven Spirit Secret Realm—was about to open. This Secret Realm had existed for several thousand years. It was said to contain countless Treasures, the inheritances of powerful experts, and invaluable Spirit Medicines, such as the priceless Celestial Spirit Fruit.

The surrounding families were ecstatic and immediately sent people inside, but all the elders who entered were killed. For a moment, no one dared to act rashly, and the news quickly spread to all corners.

When some of the ancient sects and powerful families in the Great Xia Country heard the news, they sneered. "That’s the Heaven Spirit Secret Realm. It’s protected by Arrays; it isn’t easy to enter."

"Indeed. I’ve read ancient records stating that the Heaven Spirit Secret Realm has an age restriction."

"Only those under the age of 18 can enter."

"Anyone over 18 who tries to force their way in will be killed by the Array."

"What? Only those under 18? Doesn’t that mean only the younger generation can go in?"

"Quick, gather our sect’s top geniuses and have them enter!"

At this moment, the families and sects throughout the Great Xia Country were in a frenzy. They all began to take action.

The news reached the Heaven’s Path Institute, which was also greatly shocked. The legendary Heaven Spirit Secret Realm was opening. This was a major event for them as well, and they too began preparing to gather their talented disciples.

The Wangyue Pavilion Master declared, "The Heaven Spirit Secret Realm is opening, and it contains the Celestial Spirit Fruit. We must acquire it.

"Gather all geniuses under the age of 18.

"Also, send a message to Lin Xuan telling him to head to the Heaven Spirit Secret Realm."

When Ye Qingwu received this news, she was both excited and disappointed. She was the one who most hoped to obtain the Celestial Spirit Fruit, but she was over 18 and unable to enter the Secret Realm. She could only place her hopes in Lin Xuan.

「Star Pavilion」

The elders there were also extremely excited. They found their Pavilion Master and said, "Pavilion Master, the Heaven Spirit Secret Realm is opening! We must gather our geniuses under 18.

"This time, we have to seize the opportunity and not let Wangyue Pavilion surpass us again."

"Yes, and that Lin Xuan from Wangyue Pavilion... we must find a way to deal with him."

"Deal with Lin Xuan?" The Star Pavilion Master sneered. "That boy is already dead."

Their Star Pavilion no longer had any rivals.
