49: Chapter 49 Lord of the Purgatory Clan, Dragon Breath

Prodigy Group.

Wei Xuanqi, Yun Zhiyue, and the others were also very concerned about Lin Xiao's recent situation.

Unable to contact Lin Xiao, they reached out to Jin Ruxuan.

"He is doing well."

With many people and many mouths, Jin Ruxuan did not say much in the Prodigy Group, only telling them not to worry.

"Damn, could it be that he actually managed to hold out?"

Inside a vast territory, Yun Zhiyue was dumbfounded.

She had said that as long as Lin Xiao could survive until the tenth day, she would upgrade her territory to Level 3.

Of course, Yun Zhiyue did not regret it.

She refused to believe that if Lin Xiao, that guy with an ordinary background, could hold out under the siege of Purgatory Race and Sin Race lords, she, a Prodigy from a major power and the former second place on the prodigy ranking, could not do the same.

Furthermore, unlike Lin Xiao, who was alone.

There were over a dozen of them, all Prodigies, upgrading their Level 3 territories together to share the threat from the Purgatory Race and Sin Race.

If Lin Xiao could hold out alone, it went without saying that they, with so many people, could do it too.

"It is time to prepare for upgrading to a Level 3 territory."

Yun Zhiyue muttered.

...

The fifth day.

Lin Xiao's territory welcomed invaders once again.

This time, it was an army from the Purgatory Race.

Through the eyes of the Burning Sky Flame Dragon circling high in the sky, Lin Xiao clearly saw these invaders.

They were humanoid creatures standing two to three meters tall, with two horns on their heads, thick tails whipping behind them, bodies covered in thick black scales, and surrounded by pitch-black Devilish Qi.

"The Purgatory Race."

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly.

Compared to the Sin Race, the Purgatory Race was the Human Race's greatest enemy.

If not for the protection of the Purgatory Race, the Sin Race would have been wiped out long ago.

They were also the strongest opponents the Human Race had encountered since arriving at the Chaos Source Sea.

The Purgatory Race army that entered Lin Xiao's territory was not large, numbering only a little over a hundred, which was much fewer than the Sin Race lords and Bull Demon Race lords.

However, Lin Xiao did not let his guard down.

A small number did not mean their strength was weak.

These Purgatory Race members appeared on the west side of the territory, so Lin Xiao immediately notified Zhong Yue and Qian Ying, who were stationed there, to lead the army and prepare for battle.

Just as Lin Xiao was making arrangements.

Within the Purgatory Race army, a three-meter-tall Purgatory Race hero suddenly seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.

The two black dots circling high in the sky immediately entered his field of vision.

"The Dragon Clan?"

This Purgatory Race hero was terrified; there were no weak members of the Dragon Clan, and whether they were heroes or troops, they were at least Perfect-grade.

Besides being shocked, he was also somewhat astonished.

Wasn't it said that the one invading was a Human Race lord? Why had the Dragon Clan appeared?

However, he quickly regained his composure.

Although it was not mainstream for lords to use alien heroes and alien troops, it was not exactly rare either.

"Beware of the attacks from the Dragon Clan above."

The Purgatory Race hero ordered.

This Purgatory Race army was battle-hardened and possessed formidable strength; two Dragons were not enough to make them lose their fighting spirit.

"Have I been discovered?"

Seeing this, Lin Xiao was not too surprised.

As expected, this Purgatory Race army contained quite a few Perfect-grade heroes and troops, and it was even possible that they were all Perfect-grade.

"It seems to be a veteran lord."

Lin Xiao thought thoughtfully. He divided the Third-Tier Lords of the First Source Sea into three types: ordinary lords, veteran lords, and top-tier lords.

Ordinary lords were the most numerous, and their armies were primarily composed of Rare-grade and Excellent-grade units.

When Lin Xiao's parents were still in the First Source Sea, they were at this level.

Do not assume that having Rare-grade and Excellent-grade units as the main force meant they were weak.

In fact, the vast majority of lords in the First Source Sea could not even come into contact with the Perfect-grade level; their main forces were either Rare-grade or Excellent-grade.

For veteran lords, Perfect-grade units began to appear in their armies.

The more Perfect-grade heroes and troops they had, the stronger their power.

They were also the true backbone of a race in the First Source Sea; the more veteran lords there were, the more powerful that race was.

As for top-tier lords, they referred to lords who possessed Epic-grade heroes and troops.

Their numbers were the smallest; normally, not even a few could appear in a single batch of new lords. While their strength was indeed the greatest, under normal circumstances, they would not stay in the First Source Sea for long, and at most, they would head to the Second Source Sea after a few years.

While Lin Xiao was thinking, Zhong Yue and Qian Ying arrived with the army.

The number of troops was even smaller than the invading Purgatory Race army, yet determining who was strong and who was weak depended on more than just numbers.

The great battle erupted instantly.

The first to strike was, as always, the Burning Sky Flame Dragon.

Two deep red, scorching beams of light were spat out from the mouths of the Burning Sky Flame Dragons in the high sky.

"Scorching Flame Dragon Breath."

These two terrifying Dragon Breaths, containing an endless sense of destruction, moved at extreme speed, reaching the ground in an instant and slicing through the Purgatory Race army.

Without any suspense, the Purgatory Race members hit by the Dragon Breath were instantly vaporized; even if they were just grazed by the breath, that part of their body simply vanished, as if they were butter sliced by a hot blade.

On the ground, two deep trenches several meters wide appeared, and the terrifying high temperature melted everything.

The two Scorching Flame Dragon Breaths took away the lives of over twenty Purgatory Race members.

If they hadn't already scattered and prepared for attacks from the sky, the results would have been even more astonishing.

"Epic-grade, these two Dragons are actually Epic-grade."

The Purgatory Race hero stood beside a trench, breaking out in a cold sweat.

One of the Dragon Breaths had been aimed at him; if he hadn't sensed the fatal threat in advance and dodged, he would have been one of the Purgatory Race members hit by the Dragon Breath.

The Purgatory Race hero did not doubt that with that kind of extreme destructive power, even he would be in mortal danger.

He was a Perfect-grade Third-Tier hero.

To be able to pose such a threat to him, those two Dragons were definitely Epic-grade.

"Prodigy, this Human Race lord is definitely a Prodigy." The Purgatory Race member roared inwardly, and it was even possible that he was the target they were looking for.

Unfortunately, knowing this was of no help to his current situation.

"Charge, all of you!"

With his rich combat experience, the Purgatory Race hero immediately thought of a solution.

As long as they engaged in close-quarters combat with the opposing Human Race army, unless those two Epic-grade Dragons wanted to attack their own allies as well, they would definitely not dare to strike again indiscriminately.

Sure enough, after spitting out two deep red Dragon Breaths, the Burning Sky Flame Dragons in the high sky did not strike again.

Facing the charge of the Purgatory Race army, Zhong Yue was undaunted.

The army he led was not entirely composed of Black Armor Soldierss; there were also 10 Wind Shadow Archers, filling the gap of the Black Armor Soldierss' lack of ranged attacks.

Streaks of pale green light poured onto the battlefield first.

However, the results were not that astonishing.

The Purgatory Race members on the other side were all Third-Tier, and among them were many Perfect-grade, whose strength was greater than the Wind Shadow Archers who had only just promoted to Third-Tier a few days ago.

Moreover, the other side also had ranged units.

A dozen or so massive black fireballs emitting the scent of sulfur came crashing down from the rear of the Purgatory Race army; if they were allowed to explode within the army, the casualties could be imagined.

The Wind Shadow Archers hurriedly switched targets, detonating the black fireballs before they could explode.
