Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 48: Super Reward! Celestial Spirit Fruit!

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Super Reward! Celestial Spirit Fruit!

Wu Ming was beaten into submission. He didn’t dare offend Zhao Feiyan, so he could only lower his head and say, "Lin Xuan, I’m sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have attacked you. Please forgive me."

Zhao Feiyan glared at Sun Hao and the others again, and they immediately lowered their heads and apologized. Inside, however, they were incredibly frustrated. To think that they, senior second-year disciples, had to apologize to a newcomer... The feeling was unbearable. This was especially true for Sun Hao, whose Sun Family held a grudge against Lin Xuan. And now, here he was, bowing to his enemy! It was maddening! But in front of Zhao Feiyan, they didn’t dare act out and could only bow their heads obediently.

Nearby, Feng Qingxue watched, completely dumbfounded. She never expected Lin Xuan to actually do what he said. He had claimed he would make these people bow and apologize, and that the Wind Thunder Fan would be his compensation. She had thought he was just a braggart who didn’t know his place. But now, Sun Hao, Wu Ming, and the others had truly apologized. The Wind Thunder Fan really belonged to Lin Xuan!

This is incredible! Feng Qingxue felt as if she were in a dream.

When Lin Xuan walked over, she finally asked, "How did you do it? How did you make a second-rank Alchemy Master kneel?"

Lin Xuan smiled. "The token I took out belongs to the Master of the Pill Tower. Seeing that token is the same as seeing the Tower Master himself. No matter how strong Zhao Feiyan is, could she possibly be stronger than the Tower Master?"

So that was it. Feng Qingxue finally understood. No wonder Lin Xuan had been so confident before. He had such a powerful trump card!

"Why didn’t you say so earlier? You made me worry for nothing!"

Lin Xuan chuckled. "I did tell you. I said they couldn’t hurt me at all. You just didn’t believe me."

Feng Qingxue was speechless, still feeling as if she were dreaming.

Meanwhile, Sun Hao and the others gathered around Zhao Feiyan, asking in confusion, "Senior Sister, why did you kneel?"

"Never mention this again." Zhao Feiyan’s gaze swept over Sun Hao, Wu Ming, and the others as she strictly warned them. "Act like you saw nothing. If word of this gets out, I will never forgive you."

"Senior Sister, don’t worry. We won’t say a thing," Sun Hao and Wu Ming quickly vowed.

Only then did Zhao Feiyan nod in satisfaction. For her, a second-rank Alchemy Master, to kneel to Lin Xuan... if word of this spread, it would be an immense disgrace. She took a deep breath and said quietly, "I will definitely repay this insult."

Kneeling to Lin Xuan was a great humiliation. She would never let him get away with it.

"Senior Sister, why don’t you let us handle him?" Sun Hao and the others suggested. "A few of us senior disciples could take him down easily."

They weren’t afraid of the token in Lin Xuan’s hand.

Just as Zhao Feiyan was about to speak, several elders approached from a distance. "Don’t act now," Zhao Feiyan said. "The elders are here."

Sun Tian and the others had no choice but to stand down.

Three elders walked over. Surveying the scene and noticing the blood on the ground, they frowned. "You were fighting?"

Sun Hao and Wu Ming immediately tensed up.

"We were just sparring a bit," Zhao Feiyan said.

The three elders nodded. "Remember the rules of the Heavenly Dao Academy. No unauthorized fighting, or you will face punishment under the sect’s regulations. Understood?"

"Understood." For now, Sun Hao and his group didn’t dare to make a move.

One of the elders spoke up. "You have all accepted the mission to guard the Spirit Vein, correct? Let me explain the details.

"This Spirit Vein is called the Dragon Concealment Spiritual Vein. Although it is small, it is in the process of transforming into a Dragon Vein, which makes it extremely important to our Heavenly Dao Academy. This time, the Demon Sect’s target is the Dragon Concealment Spiritual Vein.

"According to our intelligence, the Demon Sect is only sending its young prodigies. Therefore, we elders will not intervene. This will be a good opportunity for you to gain experience. The Demon Sect’s methods are extremely ruthless. They control demon beasts and use them to attack the Spirit Vein. Your mission is to kill the demon beasts around the Dragon Concealment Spiritual Vein and protect it. If any of the Demon Sect’s prodigies appear during this process, you are permitted to kill them as well.

"Now, let’s talk about the rewards. Killing demon beasts will earn you points. A first-level demon beast is worth one point. A second-level demon beast is worth one hundred points. You can also exchange the demon cores you retrieve for points. In addition, if you successfully guard the Spirit Vein, each of you will receive 500 points."

Upon hearing this, everyone grew excited. The total points for this mission could add up to a significant amount. Lin Xuan was also thrilled. It seemed that as long as he completed this mission, he would be able to go to the Enlightenment Cliff for his epiphany.

"What about the Demon Sect prodigies?" Zhao Feiyan asked. "What’s the reward for killing them?"

The elder replied, "If you manage to kill a Demon Sect prodigy, you will receive a Celestial Spirit Fruit."

"What?!" Zhao Feiyan gasped in shock.

Sun Tian and the others also clenched their fists, their faces filled with excitement.

Lin Xuan, however, was puzzled. He asked, "What is a Celestial Spirit Fruit? Is it very valuable?"

Beside him, Feng Qingxue explained, "The Celestial Spirit Fruit is a top-tier Spirit Fruit. It’s extremely precious."

Lin Xuan was surprised. "What does it do?"

"The Celestial Spirit Fruit can accelerate the condensation of a Spirit Vein," Feng Qingxue elaborated. "In other words, by consuming a Celestial Spirit Fruit, one can condense a Spirit Vein in a very short amount of time. That’s equivalent to breaking through an entire realm!"

At this, Feng Qingxue also became excited. For disciples like them, this was absolutely the best treasure imaginable.

Accelerate the condensation of a Spirit Vein! A breakthrough in a short time! Lin Xuan was amazed that such a treasure existed, but he also had a concern. He sent a mental transmission, "Big Black Dog, is this useful for me?"

After all, Lin Xuan would be condensing a Dragon Vein in the future, not a Spirit Vein.

The big black dog replied, "It’s useful for you too. A Dragon Vein is a type of Spirit Vein, just an exceptionally special one. Therefore, the Celestial Spirit Fruit can also accelerate the condensation of a Dragon Vein."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan’s eyes widened in utter shock. So it’s useful for me too! I absolutely have to get one.

"I must kill a Demon Sect prodigy," Lin Xuan murmured to himself.

The others didn’t hear him, but the three elders did. They glanced at Lin Xuan and shook their heads slightly. One of them explained, "Don’t get too excited yet. According to our intelligence, the prodigies the Demon Sect has dispatched this time are all very powerful. They should all be at the Three-Star Martial General level.

"Hunting demon beasts is fine, but if you encounter a Demon Sect prodigy in battle, you must flee immediately. Understood? You are no match for them. Leave the Demon Sect prodigies to the third-year disciples."

"What? Three-Star Martial Generals?" Sun Hao and the others gasped.

Even Zhao Feiyan gave a wry smile and shook her head helplessly. It seemed she had no chance of obtaining the Celestial Spirit Fruit. After all, no matter how strong she was, she was only a Two-Star Martial General. She couldn’t possibly defeat a Three-Star Martial General, let alone a Demon Sect prodigy, who would surely be a top-tier expert among Three-Star Martial Generals. Perhaps only the geniuses from the third year would stand a chance against them.

Lin Xuan frowned as well. A Three-Star Martial General! How can this be? He was no match for a warrior of that level right now. Not unless he could master the later stages of his nine-level swordsmanship, but that was impossible to achieve in a short amount of time.

As if sensing Lin Xuan’s dejection, the big black dog said, "I have a way for you to defeat a Three-Star Martial General."
