BTTH:The Supreme Sovereign

The duel had shaken the entire Lin Clan.

Lin Xuan, once considered trash, had defeated Lin Feng with a single strike, his talent revealed for all to see. While many were still in disbelief, the elders were now paying attention.

But Lin Xuan didn't care.

He had no intention of staying in the Lin Clan for long.

Inside his personal courtyard, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged, golden Dou Qi swirling around him. His breathing was rhythmic, and his muscles tensed slightly with every inhale.

He was cultivating.

His Golden Dragon Sovereign Physique devoured the surrounding energy at a terrifying rate, causing waves of golden Dou Qi to surge into his body.

"Crimson Dragon Scripture, Second Layer… complete."

His golden eyes snapped open, radiating a pressure that would make ordinary Dou Zhes tremble.

He clenched his fist, feeling the terrifying power coursing through his veins.

"My current strength is around the peak of 4-Star Dou Zhe. If I push a little more, I can reach 5-Star before leaving."

But cultivation wasn't his only focus.

He needed a powerful combat technique before heading to the Tager Desert.

Late at night, Lin Xuan stood outside a secluded stone chamber deep within the Lin Clan's ancestral grounds.

This was the Lin Clan's Martial Technique Pavilion, where their most powerful Dou Techniques were stored.

A few months ago, the idea of Lin Xuan entering this place would have been laughable. But now? No one dared question his qualifications.

Walking inside, he skimmed through the collections of Dou Techniques. Most were Xuan-class, a few High Xuan, but nothing that truly suited him.

Then he saw it.

A thick, ancient tome covered in golden inscriptions.

"Sky Tyrant Dragon Fist – High Xuan Rank."

Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with excitement.

"A close-combat technique based on explosive physical power and dragon-like ferocity? Perfect."

He immediately memorized the contents.

As Lin Xuan left the chamber, a voice stopped him.

"You're growing faster than expected."

Turning around, he saw Lin Tian, the First Elder of the Lin Clan.

Lin Xuan met his gaze calmly. "First Elder. Do you need something?"

Lin Tian studied him for a moment before speaking. "You remind me of someone I once knew… You're planning to leave the Lin Clan, aren't you?"

Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly. "Why do you think that?"

Lin Tian chuckled. "Because I see the hunger for strength in your eyes. You won't be satisfied here. But be warned… the world outside is far more dangerous than you realize."

Lin Xuan remained silent for a moment, then said, "That's exactly why I must leave."

The elder sighed. "Then take this."

He tossed Lin Xuan a small jade bottle.

"A second-tier Spirit Recovery Pill. It'll help you recover your Dou Qi faster."

Lin Xuan nodded in thanks and walked away.

The first step of his journey had begun.

By the next morning, Lin Xuan had made his preparations.

Sky Tyrant Dragon Fist mastered

Crimson Dragon Scripture advanced

Strength reached 5-Star Dou Zhe

With everything ready, he left the Lin Clan.

His destination?

The Snake-People Territory, deep within the Tager Desert.

Where Queen Medusa resided… and where her Heavenly Flame awaited.
