Hearing Yan Kun’s voice, Ye Chen’s eyes lit up with intense surprise!
He never in his wildest dreams imagined that Yan Kun would appear at this critical moment!
Moreover, he noticed that Yan Kun’s strength and power had skyrocketed compared to their last meeting.
Where did the Eternal Sacred King take Yan Kun?
Could it be that Yan Kun’s powers have been restored?
In Ye Chen’s eyes, the current Yan Kun was at least in the Chaos Realm!
If combined with the Qiankun Divine Race’s bloodline power, the result would be unimaginable!
In an instant, Yan Kun, draped in flames, appeared in front of Ye Chen.
Seeing Ye Chen’s injured state, anger surged through him as he growled, “Heavenly Dao Palace! Once I return to my peak, I’ll step into the Heavenly Dao Palace again!”
Ye Chen’s gaze held confusion. “Again? You’ve been to the Heavenly Dao Palace before? And why do you call yourself Pangu?”
Yan Kun scratched his head, about to respond, but Ji Lin interrupted, “Ye Chen, Yan Kun is obviously trying to show off by coming up with an overbearing name.”
“You men are just so ridiculous sometimes.”
Yan Kun: “…”
Ye Chen: “???”
“Never mind that, let me go shatter that shadowy figure! Xuanyuan Moxie is confined to the Heavenly Dao Palace; without his full power, that shadow won’t pose a threat!” Yan Kun’s enthusiasm was fiery, even his eyebrows seemed to ignite in flames.
“No, this time won’t be easy to deal with. Let’s retreat first!”
Ye Chen shook his head. The depths of the Heavenly Dao Palace’s reserves were unknown; confronting them head-on at this juncture would spell disaster.
“Fine, I have a flying artifact here—the Heavenly Trace Ark. Its speed can rival the full-speed flight of a Chaos Realm martial artist.”
With that, Yan Kun expanded the Heavenly Trace Ark tenfold. The three of them boarded it, soaring away in an instant.
Xuanyuan Moxie’s eyes were cold with murderous intent. This time, he would never allow them to escape.
The Yan Tian Dragon God, standing guard nearby, seemed to understand Xuanyuan Moxie’s frustration. It plucked a scale from its body, muttered an incantation, and flames erupted from the scale before it shot into a black hole.
“I’ll handle this.”
…
The Heavenly Trace Ark moved at incredible speed, but the black hole was not far behind. Suddenly, a beam of light shot out from the black hole, targeting Ye Chen, who was still healing.
“Watch out!”
Yan Kun, standing in front of Ye Chen, clenched his fist, now covered in flames, and collided with the fiery scale flying out of the black hole. The two flames clashed, creating intense friction that destabilized the surrounding space, threatening to tear it apart.
“Yan Kun’s flames must have mutated into the Qiankun Divine Fire. Otherwise, they couldn’t possibly possess such power.”
The blazing heat was fortunately contained, or else the Heavenly Trace Ark would have been reduced to ashes.
The opposing flame power, though, was no weaker.
“Roar!”
In the void above, the roar of a giant dragon echoed. The scale soared into the sky, and a vast expanse of dark clouds began to burn, dyeing half the heavens red. At the center of it all, the scale transformed into a fire dragon, identical to the Yan Tian Dragon God statue in the Heavenly Dao Palace’s great hall!
The fire dragon weaved through the scorched clouds like an unrivaled Dragon God overlooking all beings. It rapidly absorbed external energy, causing its body to expand even further.
“Roar! Roar!”
The sky-darkening fire dragon completely overshadowed the Heavenly Trace Ark. Its enormous eyes, larger than mountains, locked onto the three people on the ark before releasing a breath of fire, accompanied by an immense wave of heat!
Yan Kun’s expression grew solemn. Elder Yong had instructed him to rush here urgently, yet his trial wasn’t complete, and he hadn’t reached his peak. He had merely stepped into the second-level Chaos Realm. Although he could fight across levels, it wasn’t enough!
Even so, the Qiankun Race would never retreat!
Spreading both hands wide, Yan Kun conjured a massive Flame Shield to protect the entire Heavenly Trace Ark.
Flames spread through the void, and the Flame Shield was on the verge of collapsing.
“Let me help!”
Ji Lin, unwilling to stand by, unleashed poisonous gas. Her Heavenly Poison Law morphed into a shield, reinforcing protection above.
“If my guess is correct, that thing is locking onto us by using the coordinates from my Tribulation Lightning spot. As long as we exit a certain range, Xuanyuan Moxie will lose our position.”
This area was too far from the Heavenly Dao Palace, and even its master’s power would struggle to lock onto someone’s aura at such a distance.
With that, Ye Chen added his strength to the shield, ensuring the Heavenly Trace Ark could move steadily forward.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!”
The massive fire dragon roared again. This time, it dove straight at them, and the three paled simultaneously.
Under the fire dragon’s ferocious assault, the shields immediately cracked and shattered within three breaths, scattering into nothingness. All three of them spat out blood and collapsed onto the ark.
The fire dragon prepared another attack, but the three were already at their limits.
Ye Chen had been severely injured from the start.
His Ling Xiao Martial Intent and Extreme Martial Intent hadn’t even been unleashed!
“Boss, let me handle this!”
