X-Dragon Era

"Hiss..." Under the dual assault, the Death Sand Dragon painfully let out a long hiss, its body attempting to spread out again and become sand dust. But at that moment, the moisture content in its body was too high, each grain of sand was laden with moisture, and coupled with its energy nearly depleted and psychic exhaustion imminent, its movements were much slower.

Watching the grains of sand successively detach from the body of the Death Sand Dragon, Xin Yun inwardly cried trouble. Without the time to think further, Yinglong ferociously swam forward, instantly rushing in front of the Death Sand Dragon and once again forming the Dragon Array Formation around it, tightly coiling around its middle and not allowing it to disintegrate.

If it were any other time, such coiling would have been useless. After all... no matter how tightly the coils were wound, they couldn't prevent the scattering of sand. But now was different. The sand now contained too much moisture, and what's more, the moisture was the acid Yinglong had spewed.

Now, with the sand dragon firmly held within the coils and at such close range, Yinglong's control over water was still very strong, forcibly gathering the moisture, refusing to let it disperse.

Facing Yinglong coiled around its body, the Death Sand Dragon struggled fiercely, but once it was coiled around, it wasn't easy to break free. If even the Snake Formation was hard to beat, let alone the Dragon Formation!

Forcing his energy to circulate, Xin Yun staunchly resisted the Death Sand Dragon's continuous waves of struggles. Although Xin Yun's energy quantity far exceeded that of the Death Sand Dragon, the quality was much inferior. The reason he could now hold his own was that the Death Sand Dragon was indeed near energy exhaustion and struggling weakly.

At such a time, the advantage of deeper energy reserves began to show.

In fact, the Death Sand Dragon did not fear physical attacks. Each time it was dispersed, it did not get hurt. However, when gathering its body, it had to consume some energy, which is why Xin Yun could wear it down, exhaustingly draining the creature.

The more it struggled, the weaker the Death Sand Dragon became. Unable to disperse its body, it couldn't even flee, and Yi Luo Xiang continued to harass it with Soul Control beside it, leaving it both physically and mentally drained.

As time passed, the struggles of the Death Sand Dragon grew weaker until it became entirely motionless. The moment it stopped struggling, its soul and spirit also instantaneously entered a state of despair and non-resistance.

Suddenly, the leader of the Death Sand Dragons gave up all resistance. It wasn't that it didn't want to struggle; struggling was simply futile. After depleting all its physical strength, even lifting a finger was difficult, let alone struggling!

If it had been any ordinary creature, given the current situation, it would likely be half-dead already, in a state of shock. But there was some secret to this Death Sand Dragon that made it impossible to kill, so it continued to weaken under Yi Luo Xiang's harassment...

Time slowly passed by, one minute... two minutes... one hour... two hours... The sun rose and then set, and just like that, a day went by, reducing the Death Sand Dragon's resistance to an extreme weakness.

In truth, by now, the Death Sand Dragon was probably already under control, but Yi Luo Xiang lacked experience and had no idea if she was successful, hence she had to continue trying her best until she was both physically and mentally exhausted, unable to go on...

From a distance, seeing Flash Butterfly enter a state of illusion again, Xin Yun didn't dare neglect it, quickly uncoiling the Dragon Array Formation and swiftly rushing towards Yi Luo Xiang. Just in time, before Flash Butterfly disintegrated, he embraced Yi Luo Xiang's petite body in his arms.

Upon a careful check, Yi Luo Xiang had only fainted from overusing her brain, coupled with not having eaten for a long time. With pity, Xin Yun shook his head, took out a water pouch, and poured the sweet water into Yi Luo Xiang's mouth.

After drinking some water, Yi Luo Xiang gradually came to. Seeing herself in Xin Yun's arms again, she couldn't help but give a bitter smile. Once again... How many times had Xin Yun saved her now?

As she was smiling bitterly, a wave of inexplicable emotion came her way. Suddenly turning her head, about a hundred meters away, the gray-black Death Sand Dragon was coiling weakly. Those waves of inexplicable emotions were emanating from it.

"Yah!" Yi Luo let out an excited shriek, grabbing Xin Yun's arm in one swift motion, elatedly saying, "We did it! We succeeded! This guy is now under control!"

"Really? Hurry… try to control it." Hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, Xin Yun couldn't help but burst into ecstasy.

Under Xin Yun's urging, Yi Luo Xiang nervously swallowed, and a thought instantly transmitted through the Soul Chain; the next moment… the gray-black Death Sand Dragon slowly flapped its wings, striving to fly over here.

"Wow! It actually obeys…" Seeing this scene, Yi Luo Xiang chirped excitedly.

To prove that she indeed had control over the Death Sand Dragon, Yi Luo Xiang sent several command thoughts in quick succession, and the Death Sand Dragon leader obediently executed her orders without showing any signs of resistance.

Witnessing this scene, Xin Yun couldn't help but laugh heartily. With this late-stage bronze Ten Stars Death Sand Dragon leader, coupled with Yi Luo Xiang's command and control, they could rival anyone else on the same level, though not daring to claim invincibility.

The strength of a Wild Dragon is not weak, the only lacking aspect is intelligence. Now… While the intelligence of this Death Sand Dragon remained not high, under the command of the talented Yi Luo Xiang, it was absolutely terrifying.

Although they were very excited and wanted to celebrate, after several days of sleeplessness, both were truly exhausted. If it weren't for the energy within them, they might have already passed out.

Having subdued the Death Sand Dragon leader, the two couldn't hold on any longer and quickly found a wind-sheltered dune. After pitching the tent, they embraced each other and fell asleep.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The tents in the Desert of Death are quite peculiar, not set up on sand but built into the dunes. After setting up the tent, sand is pushed down from the dune to bury the tent, making it very hard for someone to notice there are people below even if they run over it. Thus, it's exceptionally safe.

Once they fell asleep, the two slept for a full day and night. When they groggily awoke, they realized they hadn't even taken off their clothes, sleeping face-to-face and in each other's embrace. Experience new tales on empire

When Xin Yun woke up, Yi Luo was still sleeping soundly; her exhaustion was indeed much greater than Xin Yun's. Looking at the small face so close at hand, those picturesque eyebrows, and the rosy little mouth, Xin Yun was overwhelmed with joy.

Seemingly sensing Xin Yun's gaze, Yi Luo's long eyelashes trembled a few times, then slowly opened, revealing a pair of dreamy and gorgeous eyes, gleaming and ethereal.

As soon as she opened her eyes, the first thing Yi Luo saw was Xin Yun's clear, large eyes. Gazing into the eyes, filled with love as precious and deep as jewels, Yi Luo's cheeks turned shyly red, not understanding… more and more puzzled, what it was about her he liked so much to love her to such a crazy extent.

Looking at Yi Luo's flushed little face and her languid appearance just after waking, Xin Yun couldn't resist leaning over to gently kiss her lips, then reluctantly let go. With that kiss from Xin Yun, Yi Luo became even shyer, hurriedly lowered her head, and buried her face in Xin Yun's embrace, too embarrassed to look up.

Holding Yi Luo gently, Xin Yun felt an immense sense of satisfaction. As he released his arms, about to speak a few words to her, he was stunned to find that, at some point, she had fallen asleep again.

Gazing at Yi Luo's face, which even in sleep maintained a sweet smile, and her incredibly shy countenance, Xin Yun once again brought her into his embrace, quietly closed his eyes, and heavily fell asleep.
