The powerful killing intent was felt not only by Zhang Caiyun, Zhang Hongying, and other Zhang Family's disciples, but also by Yun Kaige and others who were hidden far away outside Yang Flame Island.
However, they were still some distance from Yang Flame Island, so the killing intent they felt was not as intense as that felt by the Zhang Family's disciples on the island, yet even so, this powerful killing intent made their hearts tremble.
"What's going on? Why is there such intense killing intent on that island?" Wang Shuo looked towards Yang Flame Island, eyes wide with surprise, and asked.
It's worth noting that this place is three to four hundred miles away from the island where Lin Chen was, and this world suppresses auras. If this were the Mysterious Heaven Continent, the killing intent in front of us would be ten times stronger.
Such powerful strength, its might can be imagined, possessing the ability to destroy heaven and earth.
"Damn it, no wonder that guy hasn't come out from the island. Turns out there's such an opportunity on the island." Yun Kaige looked toward Yang Flame Island in anger.
Previously, he was curious why Lin Chen stayed on the island and didn't come down. Now he finally understands that there's such an opportunity on the island.
Although it's unclear whether Lin Chen can grasp this opportunity, Lin Chen's powerful Fire Control Technique made Yun Kaige and others hesitate to set foot on the island.
Thus, they knew there was no need to lay an ambush near the island, as such an opportunity appeared on Yang Flame Island, making it impossible for Lin Chen and others to leave the island for a short period.
Moreover, if Lin Chen truly obtained the opportunity on the island, his strength would surely increase, and by then, they might not be able to match Lin Chen.
At this moment, in the center of Yang Flame Island, Lin Chen had finished setting up the Flame Killing Array around him.
Yet, at this very moment, an extremely powerful killing intent erupted from beneath the Fire Sea and surged toward Lin Chen.
Lin Chen cursed inwardly; this time he had gone too far. He had referenced the Sword Array beneath the Fire Sea when setting up this Killing Formation, and now the two formations had formed a link, inadvertently drawing out the Killing Formation from beneath the Fire Sea, targeting Lin Chen.
If this killing intent hit Lin Chen, he would be instantly reduced to ashes.
Without thinking too much, Lin Chen directly let the Little Profound Turtle take the hit for him.
Although the Little Profound Turtle was extremely unwilling, there was no other choice because if Lin Chen were hit, he would surely die.
If Lin Chen died, it would become a masterless beast, making it hard to leave this world.
With no options, the Little Profound Turtle braced itself, knowing that the killing intent wasn't enough to be fatal to it.
Boom—
The powerful attack struck the Little Profound Turtle, causing several new cracks to appear on the newly formed turtle shell pieces on its body.
"Lin Chen, are you trying to get yourself killed? Setting up a formation is one thing, but why did you draw the killing formation below?" The Little Profound Turtle barked in pain, blocking the attack, and looked at the cracks on its shell, feeling heartbroken.
"I didn't expect it either. It's my first time setting up such a powerful Killing Formation, and I lack experience." Lin Chen looked at the Little Profound Turtle that had taken the attack for him, feeling grateful, and quickly explained.
Setting up such a powerful Killing Formation for the first time, he indeed lacked experience. Mainly, the two formations resonated due to sharing the energy from the Fire Sea below, inadvertently activating the killing formation below.
Anyway, with this lesson, Lin Chen gained some experience and knew how to handle it.
But at this moment, the Little Profound Turtle lay on Lin Chen's shoulder, looking as if sulking.
"Well, what do you offer me in return for blocking such a deadly attack for you this time?" The Little Profound Turtle looked at Lin Chen with an expression of demanding compensation.
Witnessing this, Lin Chen felt helpless, knowing that if he didn't offer some compensation to the Little Profound Turtle this time, it would be hard to settle.
"What do you want?" Lin Chen actually had an inkling of the Little Profound Turtle's wish but still asked.
"I want to enter the Second Layer Space inside the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron to cultivate, and I want to go right now, without delay." The Little Profound Turtle looked at Lin Chen, as if quite angry.
Ever since Lin Chen pulled it out of the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron last time, he hadn't let it back in.
It seemed Lin Chen intentionally didn't let it enter the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron anymore, and the Little Profound Turtle knew Lin Chen was afraid it would continue depleting the starlight energy.
Hearing this, Lin Chen sighed.
This time, the Little Profound Turtle got hurt all because of him.
If he hadn't accidentally triggered the killing formation below, the Little Profound Turtle wouldn't have suffered such severe injuries. If the attack had landed on him, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
So, after some thought, Lin Chen agreed directly.
"If that's the case, then go inside." Lin Chen looked at the Little Profound Turtle and sent it into the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron.
With this rescue by the Little Profound Turtle, if Lin Chen didn't fulfill his promise, it would be unjust, and the Little Profound Turtle wouldn't be willing to fight for him anymore in the future.
As a flash of light passed, the Little Profound Turtle appeared instantly in the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, and its mouth curled into a smile.
Buzz—
Starlight sparkled, mysterious and infinite.
The moment the Little Profound Turtle entered the Second Layer Space of the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, it sensed a change from the last time it left.
This time, the starlight within the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron was more concentrated than before, by far more than double. The Little Profound Turtle looked up at the sky and found that Lin Chen had illuminated another path on the Star Map.
No wonder Lin Chen hadn't let it in during this period, fearing it would dim the Star Map with its absorption.
But now the Little Profound Turtle didn't care about any of that, considering this as a reward for blocking the fatal killing intent for Lin Chen, and began absorbing the starlight power around it.
Soon, as the starlight entered its body, the Little Profound Turtle's body began to recover; under the powerful starlight power, the damaged turtle shell rapidly restored, and the cracks disappeared.
