X-Dragon Era

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang was very puzzled; this Sand Dragon was wild, how could it possibly listen to her commands? But since it was a request from Xin Yun, she decided to give it a try.

Yi Luo Xiang lowered her head again and started to murmur, "Little dragon, dragon... stop immediately, don't come any closer, be good and obey... there, that's it!"

"Hrrrum..." Following Yi Luo Xiang's thoughts, the puzzled Sandfire Dragon came to a halt, looking at Yi Luo Xiang with a face full of confusion. Seeing this, Yi Luo Xiang was first stunned, then she let out a high-pitched cheer.

It's worth mentioning that although the Sandfire Dragon couldn't possibly understand human speech, in fact, Yi Luo Xiang muttered out loud solely as a means of casting the Lingual Incantation Spell, aiming to strengthen her thoughts. What was truly sent out were waves of Soul Ripple, conveying not words, but feelings.

"Caw caw…" As if sensing Yi Luo Xiang's jubilant emotions, the little Fire Dragon opened its wings wide, its large eyes squinting, emitting strange cries. Even though one could not understand the language of beasts, it was clear that the creature shared Yi Luo Xiang's joy.

Watching the ecstatic duo, Xin Yun shook his head and said loudly, "Yi Luo... try to make it lead the other Sandfire Dragons inside the valley toward an epidemic."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang nodded quickly, sending out a wave of Soul Ripple swiftly. Then they saw the Sandfire Dragon turn its head and fly towards Sand Valley.

For a moment, both Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang held their breath, anxiously watching as the little Sandfire Dragon flew back to Sand Valley. Then... amidst their excited screams, a crimson Fireball blasted out, hitting another Sandfire Dragon right in the belly, before it turned and ran out of the valley, cunningly like a fox that had stolen a chicken.

Seeing the crafty appearance of the Sandfire Dragon, one could tell without asking; it must be following Yi Luo Xiang's commands. Otherwise, with the Sandfire Dragon's pea-sized intelligence, it couldn't have come up with such an action.

Attacked by one of its own, the Sandfire Dragon let out an angry roar and quickly beat its wings, chasing the little Sandfire Dragon. It swiftly left the mouth of the valley, and under the little one's lead, rushed toward Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang's direction…

Witnessing this, Xin Yun quickly spoke to Yi Luo Xiang beside him, "Let the little Sandfire Dragon leap over us and continue flying forward. I'll handle this Sandfire Dragon."

At Xin Yun's command, Yi Luo Xiang quickly sent out a thought. This time was different from before; she didn't clasp her hands in front of her chest or lower her head, but instead issued the command in an instant, not even needing to use Lingual Spirit.

As the thought was transmitted, Yi Luo Xiang couldn't help but feel secretly worried. When she summoned this Sandfire Dragon earlier, it took over ten minutes to fully influence it. But this command was sent out in just an instant; would the little Sandfire Dragon still obey?

While Yi Luo Xiang fretted, the little Sandfire Dragon swiftly shot from beneath them, flying far away. Seeing this, Yi Luo Xiang excitedly clenched her fists; it had worked!

Just as Yi Luo Xiang excitedly clenched her little fists, Xin Yun extended his left hand. In an instant... Yinglong's maw opened wide, and an invisible, colorless Liquid Sphere whistled out. It was like a missile, which, in a flash, struck the Sandfire Dragon that had tried to pass below, exploding on contact.

"Pop..." Amidst a crisp sound, the invisible, bowl-sized water ball shattered upon hitting the Sandfire Dragon's back. Then... as the water ball splintered, a fizzing noise followed, and the areas of the Sandfire Dragon's body covered by the liquid swiftly turned dark and withered. At the same time, the Sandfire Dragon let out a pained roar.

Although Xin Yun's attack might not have been as harsh as the little Sandfire Dragon's earlier blow, due to the elemental advantage, the pain and damage it inflicted were vastly greater. Therefore, the Sandfire Dragon immediately gave up the chase, turned its head, and from its open maw, a crimson Sandfire Ball briefly simmered before shooting straight at Xin Yun.

At this moment... Xin Yun was in a relatively high position. You should know... although the Sandfire Dragon could also fly, its flight height was quite limited; it couldn't fly as high as Xin Yun, so their positions were one above the other, almost vertical.

Facing the sandfire ball shot from the Sandfire Dragon's mouth toward its belly, Xin Yun's face remained calm, not needing to evade at all. With just a natural twist of its dragon body, it easily dodged the fireball.

Although Yinglong's size was large, in its combat form, there were so many powerful aspects. When facing an enemy head-on, the enemy only saw a single point, which was the dragon's head, making hitting it truly difficult.

It must require the precision of hitting the bullseye with every shot to land a hit; otherwise, Xin Yun wouldn't even need to dodge, and a score of nine rings would only brush past.

Moreover, due to the small target, evading was easy. Even if an enemy managed to hit the bullseye, Xin Yun would only need to slightly shift to dodge it, both easy and pleasant.

If the enemy attacked from the left or right sides, Xin Yun only had to casually bend the targeted part upwards or downwards to completely avoid the attack. If the enemy attacked from above or below, the dragon's body only needed to sway left or right to instantly let it pass.

It could be said that no matter from which direction an attack came, the target you aimed for was actually only a single point. Moreover, as all Chinese people know, dragons move like snakes, twisting their bodies with no pattern at all. Where it was a moment ago is not where it will be the next; with such restless swimming, how could one take aim?

If one had to choose the most difficult dragon to hit among all dragons, without a doubt, the Divine Dragon would be the hardest to hit for its extreme agility. Even with an encompassing strike, as long as there was the slightest gap, it could slip through.

Seeing its attack so easily dodged, the Sandfire Dragon immediately erupted in fury, spewing another fireball at Xin Yun. Unfortunately, such an attack was simply too boring for Xin Yun.

Shaking his head, Xin Yun shouted to Yi Luo Xiang not far away, "Yi Luo... come and take this little dragon away. Take it far for some dodge practice, and then have your little Sandfire Dragon lure out some more Sandfire Dragons."

Seeing Xin Yun hovering in midair, evading all the fireballs with just the natural twisting of his dragon form, Yi Luo Xiang's heart gradually settled. While ordering a small Fire Dragon to return to Sand Valley and lure another Sandfire Dragon out, she moved towards the Sandfire Dragon beneath Xin Yun.

Suddenly confronted with an enemy, the Sandfire Dragon instantly turned its head, and a crimson Sandfire Ball shot out towards Yi Luo Xiang.

Although the Sandfire Dragon could shoot Sandfire Balls, it was, after all, only a Bronze One Star creature. Both the size and the speed of its fireballs were poor, and facing the incoming fireball head-on, Yi Luo Xiang even had time to frown before leisurely dodging it.

In the span of fluttering and closing her wings, Yi Luo Xiang instantly vanished from where she was and appeared to the right front side of the Sandfire Dragon. Seeing this, the Sandfire Dragon let out a roar, flapping its wings and chasing after Yi Luo Xiang.

Soon, Yi Luo Xiang led the Sandfire Dragon far away, making a wide turn. At the same time, the little Sandfire Dragon she controlled had already lured another Sandfire Dragon back.

For the entire following day, Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang practiced evasion skills in mid-air. The number of Sandfire Dragons lured over increased from the initial one to more than ten by the end; only then did Yi Luo Xiang start to feel the difficulty. After all... she was still just a Bronze One Star, and her Blink required a certain amount of time.

Once there were too many enemies, it could become very challenging to react in time.

As for Xin Yun, with his experience from a past life, even ten Sandfire Dragons posed no threat to him. He could complete all the dodges subconsciously without even needing to think, simply relying on his experience.

Of course, this was also because the speed of the Sandfire Dragons' fireballs was too slow. Otherwise, no matter how rich Xin Yun's experience was, if the dragon's body couldn't keep up with the mind, it would all be useless.
