Chapter 1481: Chapter 1481: Unusual Fluctuation
"Damn it, what a ghost, this guy actually has so many talisman inscriptions." Yun Kaige looked at Lin Chen, cursed a few words in his heart, and finally decided to retreat from this place.
After all, once the energy of the defense secret treasure on him is exhausted, with his strength, he cannot survive in this level of fire sea magma.
He wanted to kill Lin Chen, but he didn’t want to risk his own life for it.
Unwillingly, Yun Kaige glanced at Lin Chen a few times, and finally could only turn his steps to leave, swimming towards the top of the fire sea.
Seeing that Yun Kaige finally left, Lin Chen felt a bit relieved.
Luckily, he was well prepared this time, with enough defensive talisman inscriptions on him, otherwise this time would have been a total disaster.
"Lin Chen, why are you so timid, being chased by such a small fry? Earlier, you should have let me take action and just finish him off." As Yun Kaige had just left not long ago, Little Profound Turtle crawled out from Lin Chen’s collar and lay on Lin Chen’s shoulder, speaking.
Lin Chen, having just been chased by Yun Kaige, made it feel oppressed and couldn’t resist wanting to take action, but Lin Chen stopped it.
"If you had the assurance of killing him in one strike, I would naturally let you take action and wouldn’t stop you. But if you couldn’t kill him in one strike, we can’t take that risk, otherwise the consequences would be unbearable for us." Lin Chen looked at Little Profound Turtle, speaking calmly.
If Little Profound Turtle had taken action just now and failed to kill Yun Kaige, it would reveal the existence of Little Profound Turtle.
It’s important to know that Little Profound Turtle, as a descendant of Xuanwu, would certainly attract countless people’s covetousness, regardless of how many desire to keep these ancient exotic beasts, even if they are just descendants of ancient divine beasts.
Once Little Profound Turtle is exposed, the many powerful beings within Yunlong Heavenly Palace could easily recognize Little Profound Turtle’s true identity.
Moreover, although Little Profound Turtle’s cultivation now is less than one-tenth of its peak, it still possesses the aura of the Creation Realm First Level.
So if Little Profound Turtle’s aura is exposed, others will surely suspect that Lin Chen has a treasure capable of holding living creatures.
The Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, as Lin Chen’s strongest secret until now, absolutely must not be exposed, so Lin Chen naturally doesn’t want to risk letting Little Profound Turtle attack Yun Kaige.
Because if Little Profound Turtle cannot kill Yun Kaige in one strike, Lin Chen would risk exposing the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron.
To Lin Chen, this would be extremely fatal, and in such a situation, it would be unlikely that anyone could keep Lin Chen safe.
Not only that, if Lin Chen is targeted, those around him would also be in danger.
So, without absolute assurance, Lin Chen is not in a hurry to take action against Yun Kaige.
Although Yun Kaige is exceptionally talented, Lin Chen is equally confident in his own talent. As long as he is given some time to grow, soon Yun Kaige will be nothing more than an ant in front of him.
As the saying goes, "A gentleman’s revenge, even ten years are not too late," let alone it won’t take ten years.
"Lin Chen, what do you mean, do you actually think that this Prince can’t handle that kid? Who does he think he is, this Prince can pin him down easily." Little Profound Turtle was infuriated by Lin Chen’s words, feeling that Lin Chen didn’t believe in its capability, immediately speaking angrily.
Upon hearing, Lin Chen couldn’t help but shake his head.
"I don’t disbelieve you, but you don’t know the trump cards that guy has. If by chance, when you kill him, he uses a trump card to block you and escapes after witnessing your strength, then we’ll have big trouble." Lin Chen looked at Little Profound Turtle, explaining calmly.
This guy’s thinking is on par with that silly girl Yang Minghui.
Listening to Lin Chen’s words, Little Profound Turtle immediately showed an unyielding expression, staring at Lin Chen angrily.
"All you’ve said are just guesses, how do you know that guy has life-saving trump cards." Little Profound Turtle looked at Lin Chen, speaking calmly, although in its heart it felt Lin Chen had some sense, it just didn’t want to admit it, after all, it didn’t want to bow down in front of Lin Chen.
"I don’t know whether he has life-saving trump cards; precisely because I don’t know, I dare not let you take action rashly. What if he does have one when you strike?"
"From now on, think before you act, don’t act like that silly girl Yang Minghui." Lin Chen looked at Little Profound Turtle, immediately admonishing.
"You... who looks like that silly girl Yang Minghui, you’re the one who looks like her..." Little Profound Turtle, hearing Lin Chen describing it that way, immediately wanted to argue with Lin Chen, but Lin Chen was too lazy to pay attention to it, instead focusing his eyes on the surrounding fire sea.
"Alright, there’s no time for messing around, we need to find a way to leave here, the temperature of the surrounding fire sea is too high, if we stay here, I’ll really end up stuck." Lin Chen looked at Little Profound Turtle, speaking, urging it not to mess around.
Although Lin Chen still had many talisman inscriptions on him, he couldn’t withstand the continuous consumption here.
This place is the deepest part of the fire sea, consuming a defense talisman inscription every twenty breaths; no matter how many talisman inscriptions Lin Chen has, he would eventually run out at this rate, so he needs to find a way to leave.
Hearing Lin Chen say this, Little Profound Turtle nodded; for it, the fire sea brought no harm but rather comfort, but Lin Chen is different, the fire sea could cause him great harm.
"Let’s go, let’s return to the top of the fire sea." Lin Chen spoke calmly, then started ascending with Little Profound Turtle.
Although above the fire sea, perhaps Yun Kaige and people from Black Yan Hall were guarding there, Lin Chen didn’t necessarily intend to float out of the fire sea, as long as he left the deepest part of the fire sea, the temperature outside would drop significantly; relying on the Blue Lotus Divine Flame within Lin Chen, he could be unaffected by the fire sea.
However, just as Lin Chen prepared to swim up the fire sea with Little Profound Turtle, his body suddenly trembled, and his gaze turned towards a direction below the magma.
"Little Profound Turtle, did you notice that the aura there is quite different, seems like there’s a strange energy fluctuation?" Lin Chen reached out, pointing to a direction, asking Little Profound Turtle.
Hearing this, Little Profound Turtle immediately looked in that direction.
After observing for a while, it seemed to notice the peculiarity there.
"Indeed, there are some peculiar aura fluctuations; Lin Chen, do you think there might be treasures there?"
