Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 223: Is Lin Xuan a Dragon?

"The Dragon Claw Stone Slab, it really is the Dragon Claw Stone Slab!"

Chu Yue’s body trembled with excitement. Unexpectedly, the legendary Dragon Claw Stone Slab had appeared right in front of her.

It seems this Black Tiger must have accidentally torn open the ground and was killed by the power from the Dragon Claw Stone Slab. Yes, that must be it.

Chu Yue had no idea that this Black Tiger was killed by Lin Xuan, nor that the claw marks on the stone below were also left by him. She carefully cut out the piece of stone and held it in her hands.

This is a supreme treasure! I must comprehend the power within it. Also, no one else can know about this.

Thinking of this, Chu Yue turned and ran. She found a safe place and began to comprehend the power it contained.

Lin Xuan had no idea that a crack he had casually made was now being treated as a supreme treasure by Chu Yue. He was in the forest practicing the Serpent Fist, striving to elevate it to a higher realm. Just as Lin Xuan was about to find a Demon Beast for sparring, the void suddenly shook, and a half-step Grandmaster-level Demon Beast charged out.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan was overjoyed. I can use this one for practice!

"You’re Lin Xuan! I finally found you!" the half-step Grandmaster Demon Beast laughed excitedly.

Lin Xuan was stunned. He hadn’t expected this beast to be able to speak, let alone know who he was. This was too incredible.

"Who are you? And why do you know me?" Lin Xuan frowned.

"A dead man doesn’t need to know so much," a figure descended from the sky. It was another half-step Grandmaster Demon Beast.

Two half-step Grandmaster-level Demon Beasts blocked Lin Xuan’s path, one in front and one behind.

"Boy, go to hell obediently."

"After we kill you, the Demon King will reward us with entry into the Demon God Hall."

"You dared to kill the Dream Butterfly and the Shadowless Insect. You’re doomed."

Lin Xuan’s face darkened upon hearing this. He knew of the Dream Butterfly and the Shadowless Insect. They were the Demon Beasts that had ambushed him in the Dragon Concealment Mountain Range, whom he had counter-killed. He hadn’t expected these two to be in league with them.

"Why are you attacking me? I don’t believe I’ve ever provoked your Demon Race."

"Heh heh," one of the Demon Beasts sneered. "Someone paid a high price to have you eliminated."

"Alright, go to hell!"

The two half-step Grandmaster Demon Beasts sneered and unleashed a terrifying power. Their attack immediately enveloped Lin Xuan.

RUMBLE! 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The earth sank and fierce winds swept through the area, ripping trees from the ground in an apocalyptic scene.

What happened? The commotion shook the entire mountain range. Even the geniuses in other areas felt their expressions change drastically.

"What a terrifying aura!"

"Is that a half-step Grandmaster-level Demon Beast?"

"My god, that place is too dangerous!"

The crowd exclaimed incessantly.

Inside the Heavenly Dao Building, four Grandmasters also sensed the disturbance and rushed out.

"Not good! There’s a half-step Grandmaster-level Demon Beast!"

"Our geniuses are in danger!"

The four Grandmasters rushed towards the source of the commotion.

...

"Not good, the Grandmasters from the Heavenly Dao Academy are coming! We have to leave, quickly!"

The two Demon Beasts turned to flee. In any case, Lin Xuan was already dead and their mission was complete. They had no reason to stay.

"Trying to leave?"

At that moment, a cold voice echoed from the ruins. "Neither of you is going anywhere."

The two Demon Beasts froze and turned their heads. Looking towards the ruins, they saw Lin Xuan walking out.

They were stunned. "You’re not dead?"

"Impossible!"

He was just a mere five-star Martial General. How could he possibly be alive after being hit by the joint attack of two half-step Grandmaster Demon Beasts?

An illusion. This must be an illusion!

"Tell me, who ordered this attack?" Lin Xuan asked coldly.

"Die!" The two Demon Beasts charged again. This time, they went all out, planning to kill Lin Xuan in a single strike and then immediately escape. The Grandmasters were approaching rapidly, and they couldn’t afford to be caught, or they would be doomed. Their combined power this time was even more terrifying.

"Courting death!" Lin Xuan was also enraged. "Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Hand!"

His hand transformed into a dragon’s claw and swiped fiercely forward. With a loud bang, the very void seemed to shatter as the terrifying power tore everything apart. The two Demon Beasts’ attacks were ripped to shreds. An instant later, their bodies were too.

"How can you be so strong?"

The two Demon Beasts screamed in agony, trying to flee, but they never had a chance. Under that single claw strike, they were reduced to a blood mist and scattered into nothingness. Even at the moment of their deaths, the two powerful Demon Beasts couldn’t believe they had been slain by Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan snorted coldly. "Two worthless creatures dared to ambush me?" It’s just a pity I couldn’t find out who was behind it.

BOOM.

Four figures flew over one after another. Staring at the blood mist that filled the air, the four Grandmasters wore grave expressions.

The Ninth Elder asked, "Lin Xuan, are you alright?"

"I’m fine," Lin Xuan shook his head.

The Ninth Elder breathed a sigh of relief, but the Grand Elder asked, "What happened here?"

Lin Xuan said, "Two half-step Grandmaster Demon Beasts ambushed me. I killed them."

What? Upon hearing this, the four Grandmasters were utterly astounded. Half-step Grandmaster-level Demon Beasts had ambushed him, and he had killed them? How was that possible? He had to be joking! How could a mere five-star Martial General like him possibly withstand a half-step Grandmaster’s attack?

"Utter nonsense!" the Grand Elder snorted coldly.

The Third Elder frowned and said, "If you don’t know what happened, don’t just spout nonsense."

Sighing, the Sixth Elder also found it hard to believe.

The Ninth Elder said, "Lin Xuan, this isn’t the time for bragging. Tell us what really happened."

"I am telling the truth," Lin Xuan continued. "And these two Demon Beasts were instructed by someone to ambush me specifically. Ninth Elder, can you see if you can find out their identities?"

Hearing this, the Ninth Elder’s brows furrowed tightly. He didn’t believe Lin Xuan, but the identities of the two Demon Beasts did indeed need to be investigated. He stepped forward, his eyes flashing with a sharp light as he scanned the area. The surroundings were littered with nothing but fragments.

The Ninth Elder frowned. He couldn’t discern what kind of Demon Beasts they had been, but the residual aura was incredibly sharp. "It feels like they were killed by a dragon’s claw."

"I have the same feeling," the Grand Elder said. "This shouldn’t be the work of a human Martial Artist. It was likely an internal conflict between Demon Beasts. This mountain range probably hides an extremely powerful Demon Beast related to the Dragon Race. It might even possess Dragon Blood in its veins. Otherwise, it couldn’t possess such terrifying power."

"No, we can’t stay in this mountain range any longer. If our geniuses encounter this terrifying Exotic Beast, they will be in grave danger."

Hearing this, the other elders nodded in agreement. They conferred, deciding to summon back all the disciples and leave the area. The elders were very nervous. The geniuses they had brought were all top-tier talents with limitless futures; they absolutely could not be allowed to perish here. They prepared to leave.

Lin Xuan spoke up, "Elders, you don’t need to worry. It really wasn’t some Exotic Beast. It was me. There’s no danger here."
