Chapter 1490: Chapter 1490: Yun Kaige Escapes
It is known that seventh rank magic treasures are extremely rare in the Cloud Dragon Kingdom, and top seventh rank magic artifacts are even more scarce, akin to the rarity of phoenix feathers.
Yun Kaige was intensely envious of Lin Chen’s fortune and secretly pondered why Lin Chen, instead of him, obtained the opportunity after descending into the sea of fire.
Even some Creation Realm Experts might not possess a single top seventh rank magic artifact, as refining defensive magical treasures of that level is exceedingly difficult.
The sharp sword in Yun Kaige’s hand was merely of a seventh rank medium grade, a level achieved by leveraging his identity as the Thirteenth Prince, exhausting his wealth, and accruing significant debt.
Due to his excessive pursuit of this seventh rank medium grade treasured sword, as a Prince, he lacked ample wealth to acquire other defensive magical treasures.
For instance, the Mystic Robe he wore was merely a top sixth rank, and he couldn’t even afford a half-step seventh-rank magical treasure.
Had he been able to, he wouldn’t have suffered such severe injuries in the recent sword confrontation with Lin Chen.
Thus, upon learning that Lin Chen’s vestment robe was a seventh rank high grade or even more potent defensive magical treasure, his envy knew no bounds.
Moreover, he was certain that Lin Chen’s vestment robe and the fire technique he executed were part of the opportunity gained after escaping Yun Kaige’s pursuit beneath the fire sea.
Otherwise, had Lin Chen mastered this kind of fire control technique earlier, he would have deployed it when being chased by Yun Kaige, negating the need to exhaust numerous life-saving talismans and escape to the depths of the fire sea.
This fire technique isn’t something a mere Outer Sect Disciple of the Yunlong Heavenly Palace is entitled to practice.
Therefore, Yun Kaige was confident that Lin Chen indeed obtained some fortune beneath the fire sea.
Lin Chen, after conjuring ten fire dragons, looked coldly at Yun Kaige.
Ever since Yun Kaige ambushed and chased him, Lin Chen had regarded him as an enemy, marked for death.
Thus, Lin Chen had no intention of sparing Yun Kaige; killing him would be ideal.
With a wave of his hand, Lin Chen commanded the ten fire dragons, which roared with imposing aura, surrounding Yun Kaige in assault.
The ten fire dragons formed a siege, encircling Yun Kaige completely.
Feeling the immense power of the ten fire dragons, Yun Kaige’s heart was flustered, his face darkened.
He had planned to capture Lin Chen and seize the vestment robe from him.
Yet, now facing the ten fire dragons, he was overwhelmed with trepidation. With his current strength, he couldn’t contend with these dragons, let alone capture Lin Chen.
Right now, he felt extremely frustrated to be defeated by Lin Chen.
Previously, he pursued Lin Chen, driving him into disarray, but who could have imagined the roles would reverse, forcing him into such a predicament by Lin Chen?
Whoosh—
Yun Kaige, churning spiritual power frantically, unleashed a sword strike towards the fire dragons. The fierce Sword Qi fell upon one of the dragons, weakening its flames yet failing to destroy it entirely.
Currently, Yun Kaige had lost any intent to kill Lin Chen and was solely focused on finding a way to break through the encirclement of the ten fire dragons.
If he failed, not only would killing Lin Chen and seizing the vestment robe be impossible, but he might also find himself buried beneath these ten fire dragons.
With Lin Chen harboring lethal intent and using ten fire dragons to encircle Yun Kaige, he couldn’t allow him to escape easily.
Buzz—Buzz—
Yun Kaige frantically swung his sharp sword, sending out waves of Sword Light; however, as he sliced a break in the fire dragons’ formation, intending to escape, the blaze quickly covered the gap, and upon nearing, he sensed that the ten fire dragons weren’t just mere fire control but also embedded with a fiery formation spell.
Admittedly, Lin Chen’s tactics shocked Yun Kaige greatly; he hadn’t anticipated Lin Chen to be so meticulous.
If Yun Kaige only possessed those techniques, he might indeed perish under these fire dragons’ assault today.
Buzz—
Under Lin Chen’s command, the ten fire dragons formed an assault posture, charging towards Yun Kaige.
The ferocious onslaught presented by the ten fire dragons induced boundless crisis upon Yun Kaige.
Swiftly, he spread his palm, releasing a dazzling light—a menacing Sword Qi that tore through the air.
The striking Sword Qi swept across, rendering the whole fire sea tremulous and turbulent, suppressing the might of the fire dragons instantaneously.
That stunning Sword Light pierced the realm, incredibly blinding; as it slashed through, the encircling ten fire dragons were annihilated, slowly dissipating.
Boom—
The fierce Sword Qi ravaged through, obliterating the ten fire dragons, transforming into countless lava eruptions, blasted into the fire sea, stirring myriad turbulent waves.
Taking the opportunity of the fire dragons’ instantaneous destruction, Yun Kaige hurriedly executed his spell, morphing into a Sword Light, fleeing towards the exterior of the fire sea.
Initially, Yun Kaige wanted to use the Sword Qi powered magical treasure straight against Lin Chen, yet he was unaware of what opportunity Lin Chen secured beneath the fire sea. If this strike failed to obliterate Lin Chen, he would be swallowed by the ten fire dragons, facing certain death.
Ultimately, he didn’t dare gamble and, for safety’s sake, opted only to sweep away the fire dragons’ siege, subsequently escaping.
When Lin Chen first released the ten fire dragons, their formidable momentum astonished the people from Heaven Hall and Black Yan Hall, neglecting Yun Kaige’s dignity, originally intending to aid him but upon witnessing Yun Kaige’s inability to withstand the fire dragons’ might, they dismissed the rescue notion.
Indeed, by braving forward, they too might perish under the ten fire dragons.
Despite pondering over their options, they dared not flee during Yun Kaige’s confrontation with Lin Chen, as doing so would offend Yun Kaige.
Everyone knew Yun Kaige well enough, understanding they couldn’t afford to provoke him; otherwise, future troubles surely awaited them.
Yet at that moment, upon seeing Yun Kaige unveil his trump card, eliminating the fire dragons and fleeing, none dared tarry longer as in the fire sea, Lin Chen could summon the dragons again, endangering their safety.
Thus, everyone began deploying spells and utilizing secret treasures, rushing towards the outer regions of the fire sea.
