Chapter 221 Confrontation with Fire

The moment Lin Chen flew into the sky, Jian Nichang also walked out of the City Lord's mansion...

Fire Ritual!

That was… her grandfather.

However, he was a hypocrite.

Jian Nichang felt that she should face this alongside the Sword Master.

However, just as she took off, she heard Lin Chen's order: "Fall back, I don't need you."

Jian Nichang stopped in mid-air.

"Help me protect Tianyue City. I will avenge your hatred!"

Lin Chen's voice rang out again.

"Alright." Jian Nichang landed back down.

And Lin Chen had already soared into the clouds, his voice shaking the earth: "Fire Ritual, you've come just in time! If you hadn't come, I would have gone looking for you."

At this time, Fire Ritual had already seen Lin Chen.

However, it was as if he... was talking to a sword!

Lin Chen stood in the sky, his whole person like a sharp sword with wings.

His standing posture, from head to toe, seemed full of openings…

But at the same time, it felt like there were no openings at all!

This appearance was not unfamiliar to Fire Ritual.

Lin Chen at this moment, being like a sword, couldn't help but remind him of someone…

His daughter-in-law.

When she entered a defensive stance, she was like a sharp sword.

But there was also a difference.

She belonged to the sharp sword.

But Lin Chen…

Was a heavy sword!

A heavy sword has no edge, the greatest skill is without art.

Fire Ritual squinted and said, "It seems that you were in the Sword Tomb Secret Realm back then. So… you killed the elites of my Fire family, including the heir?"

"Huo Yintu? It was indeed me!" Lin Chen nodded.

"You deserve to die!"

Fire Ritual gnashed his teeth, and with a flip of his palm, a fireball appeared. After the fireball was pushed out, it stopped in front of Fire Ritual and rapidly expanded, soon becoming ten times his own size.

Lin Chen moved his mind and released the violent wind field.

Immediately, his whole person disappeared from the spot.

Super Slide!

Bang!

The skill hit.

But at this moment, Fire Ritual was not affected by the Super Slide's knockback, and even seemed immune to the damage.

Lin Chen retreated again.

"Exploding Sky Fire!"

Fire Ritual shouted loudly, and the enormous fireball flew quickly towards the direction where Lin Chen had escaped, detonating in the air almost instantly.

Lin Chen activated Seven Star Energy Gathering.

However, even though he reacted quickly and used Instant Shadow Transfer, he was still slightly injured by the explosion of the fireball…

Lin Chen stood still once more.

"You're also at the peak of the Second Revolution?" Lin Chen asked coldly.

"I'm not as good as my brother!"

Fire Ritual responded.

At this moment, Lin Chen clearly saw airships coming from the distant clouds.

Wasn't that Fire Ember at the front of the airship?

In addition, there were even some people from other marquis families.

But Lin Chen quickly focused all of his attention back on Fire Ritual.

In their first exchange, Lin Chen had not gained any advantage.

Then…

He could only begin to build up momentum!

Sword Intent rises.

Clouds surge.

Lin Chen's robes moved without wind.

"Enchanted Half-Moon Slash!"

At the same time, Lin Chen used a skill first.

A large-scale skill!

Boom!

Exceeding two thousand yards per second, his whole person was like an afterimage… The dual attack damage bonus of this strike had already reached a high fifteen times. With Lin Chen's dual attack stats, the amount of damage was very terrifying!

However, the dual attack penetration was not high.

Because it was not sword qi, it was only about 30%.

"Fire Shield!"

Around Fire Ritual, raging flames burned.

The same Fire Shield skill, when used by Fire Ritual, was not in the same league as Huo Yintu.

Compared to Fire Ritual, Huo Yintu's Fire Shield was like the light of a firefly compared to the bright moon!

"Explode for me!"

Lin Chen slashed out.

Fire Ritual rapidly retreated along with the impact of the strike.

Boom!

The Fire Shield disappeared.

The corner of Fire Ritual's robe was cut off.

But it was only the corner of his robe.

However, Fire Ritual's expression changed drastically. He said in a muffled voice, "When did you become so powerful? No, you definitely have more than First Revolution strength! Could it be that you have a special way to suppress your realm, making it undetectable?"

"Haha, do you want to understand before you die? But… I just won't tell you!"

Lin Chen laughed.

After one skill, his momentum buildup time was long enough.

At this moment, Lin Chen flashed back to create distance, and then sword qi began to surround his body. More and more sword qi appeared, and at the same time, all the swords below Tianyue City, regardless of whether they were worn by masters, were trembling…

Especially in Duan Zhutian's weapon shop.

After Lin Chen returned this time, Duan Zhutian had all his apprentices do nothing but forge swords.

Overnight, thousands of apprentices had created three thousand swords!

However, Lin Chen did not intend to use all the swords in Tianyue City this time.

Because…

This was a surprise.

More than six thousand swords would allow Lin Chen to form a state of ten thousand swords surrounding his body in about four seconds…

But now, Lin Chen had forcibly endured for ten seconds.

Fire Ritual knew that he probably wouldn't be able to interrupt Lin Chen's momentum buildup.

Then…

He also began to chant an incantation.

"Flames of heaven and earth, hear my command. Fire burns the sky, Heavenly Dragon of Fire!"

Fire Ritual also used an incantation.

Fire Dragon Burns the Sky!

In the sky, a huge fire dragon was forming. The fire dragon was several times larger than the previous fireball, and even more powerful than the water dragon condensed by the Azure Dragon…

"Roar~"

A dragon's roar resounded through the heavens and earth.

But the next moment, another dragon's roar seemed unwilling to be lonely…

Roar!

It was the Azure Dragon.

The Azure Dragon's spell range was extremely large.

So, it merely extended a huge dragon head from the dark river, glanced at the fire dragon in the sky, and then countless water droplets began to condense in the battlefield between Lin Chen and Fire Ritual. These water droplets condensed into water beads, and then began to gather together…

Finally, a water dragon was formed in front of the fire dragon.

Just…

Compared to Fire Ritual's fire dragon, the Azure Dragon's water dragon was too small.

And too weak.

Less than one-tenth the size.

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin!"

Lin Chen completed his momentum buildup, the sword qi had formed, and he attacked Fire Ritual without any politeness.

Sword qi was like shadows.

Sword light was like blazing fire…

Sword qi was endless.

"Devour everything, Fire Dragon!"

Fire Ritual also urged the fire dragon to devour Lin Chen.

Roar~

Roar!

The fire dragon roared wildly.

The water dragon chanted.

The two dragons formed by spells collided in the air first, but the result was not that the water dragon, which should have had a natural advantage due to elemental resistance, gained the upper hand. Instead, the fire dragon seemed to be devouring the water dragon… However, the fire dragon's length was also constantly consumed by the water dragon.

Finally, the water dragon was completely consumed.

And the fire dragon was also at least one-third shorter.

Seeing this, the Azure Dragon returned to the dark river again.

At this time, in the sky, Lin Chen stood with one hand behind his back, and extended his right hand with two fingers forming a sword. Sword qi continuously headed towards the fire dragon. Countless sword qi began to cut it, and the fire dragon was constantly cut and consumed while advancing…

What was also being consumed was sword qi.

But…

There was only one fire dragon.

And it had been consumed by one-third by the water dragon.

Lin Chen's sword qi, however, seemed endless…

After five thousand sword qi, only the tail of the fire dragon remained.

But Lin Chen's sword qi was still there.

"How is this possible… Fire Dragon, rise again!"

Fire Ritual was still unwilling.

He continued to pour magic power into his palms. As the magic fluctuated, the fire dragon, which only had its tail left, grew a dragon head again, but Lin Chen's sword qi cut it once again.

At the same time, Lin Chen rotated and jumped in the air. The place where he had been standing was now only air and countless sword qi. The fire dragon pounced in vain… But there was no longer any obstacle between Lin Chen and Fire Ritual.

Fire Shield destroyed!

Fire Dragon exhausted…

What next?

Sword qi surrounded Fire Ritual.

Fire Ritual dodged urgently, and at the same time, he constantly launched fireballs to shake off the sword qi. But there were too many sword qi, and finally, after Fire Ritual consumed thousands of sword qi, his defense was still broken by a sharp sword qi…

"Ah!"

Fire Ritual's whole person was wide open.

Countless sword qi pierced through his chest.

His whole person seemed to be suffering the punishment of ten thousand arrows piercing his heart!

However, although it looked painful.

But…

After feeling the damage of these sword qi, Fire Ritual was no longer worried.

Now Lin Chen's physical and magical attacks had both exceeded one million.

However, the damage of each sword qi of the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin was only 0.003%, that is, each sword qi could only cause about four thousand points of true damage.

Fire Ritual's health, however, had reached one million, and even exceeded that by a few hundred thousand!

Previously, Lin Chen thought that Fire Ritual should be similar to Demile.

But Demile only had about seven or eight hundred thousand health.

But Fire Ritual had about twice as much as Demile. From this, it could be seen that Fire Ritual, this hypocritical guy, was not only hypocritical but also very shameless… He had actually been hiding his strength all along.

So, even if Lin Chen had more than two thousand sword qi left, he would not be able to kill Fire Ritual.

He could not even cripple him and put him into a seriously injured state.

As long as he wasn't dead, he could still make a comeback!

That's what Fire Ritual thought.

At this time, he had been pierced by sword qi.

But, as long as he could survive it.

However, when another sword qi was born on Lin Chen's side, he had already activated Star Energy Explosion Kill.

The last sword qi, carrying the mark of Star Energy Explosion Kill, hit Fire Ritual.

Puchi…

Fire Ritual finally withstood all the sword qi attacks!

He spat out a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, his eyes began to search for Lin Chen's existence.

Finally, he suddenly looked up.

Lin Chen was actually in the high sky above his head.

"Incantation, Raise Fire to Burn the Sky!"

Fire Ritual used another incantation.

And at this time, Lin Chen's voice also came from above: "Divine Elephant… Steps on the Nine Heavens!"

Hum~

The roar of the ancient divine elephant resounded through the sky.

Lin Chen stepped down, and the divine elephant dharma had already appeared, and it was much more solid than any time Lin Chen had used Divine Elephant Steps on the Nine Heavens before.

The power was also stronger!

Boom!

Raging fire burned on Fire Ritual's head.

But then, with a bang, it was as if the ancient divine elephant's leg, weighing ten thousand tons, had trampled heavily on everyone's hearts…

The void was shaking!

The air was stirring!

The clouds were flying!

The fire that burned the sky was extinguished with one foot.

At the same time, the divine elephant's dharma also disappeared…

Lin Chen no longer had invincible power.

But it didn't matter.

Since the fire that burned the sky was extinguished, there was no more damage.

Lin Chen penetrated Fire Ritual's Raise Fire to Burn the Sky, and that foot stomped firmly on Fire Ritual's face…

Puchi!

Fire Ritual spat out blood again.

His health sharply decreased by two hundred thousand.

He only had about two hundred thousand left.

"How is this possible… I, I have been the Fire family's Qilin bloodline since I was a child. My health is naturally extremely thick, but why… you, a mid-stage First Revolution, can break through my defenses again and again…"

At this time, Fire Ritual's eyes were full of unwillingness.

Half of his cheek was covered in Lin Chen's footprints…

Lin Chen did not respond to his doubts.

Because, at this time, Fire Ritual was already in a seriously injured state.

"Go to hell… Sword Qi Sweeps Across!"

Lin Chen shouted loudly.

At this time, a voice on the airship shouted angrily: "Stop!"

At the same time, another fire dragon appeared.

But this time, the fire dragon was twice as powerful as Fire Ritual's before!

Fire Ember!

He had made his move.

But…

Was it useful to make a move at this time?

"Even if the Heavenly King himself comes today, Fire Ritual will definitely die. Even the gods can't protect him. I, Lin Chen, said so… Come on!" Lin Chen let out a long howl.

His voice shook the heavens and the earth.

The next moment, his whole person was like a sword, directly piercing through Fire Ritual's body.

"Pfft… cough…"

Fire Ritual's whole body leaned back, twitched violently, and let out an involuntary sound. His chest had been pierced, blood and spiritual energy overflowed, and countless soul essence vented out…

"Star Energy, Explode!"

Lin Chen did not hesitate to detonate his last means…

Star Energy Explosion Kill!

Fire Ritual, who only had a breath left, had countless places on his body explode, and he died instantly. A soul scurried out of his body, but the next moment it was caught in Lin Chen's hand.

"Lin Chen, how dare you!"

Fire Ember landed from the airship, holding the fire dragon with one hand and shouted angrily: "If you devour my brother's soul, this fire dragon will definitely destroy the entire Tianyue City!"

"Haha… Can you destroy it?"

Lin Chen was not polite and directly swallowed Fire Ritual's soul in one gulp.

Boom!

Soul experience was skyrocketing.

Soul cultivation advanced!

Divine Disciple Realm, mid-stage!

Lin Chen's strength increased by another 10%!

Key skills became even stronger.

After devouring Fire Ritual's soul, Lin Chen directly escaped without hesitation.

He had to return to Tianyue City.

At this time, his mana was not full.

He was not in peak condition.

That world-destroying sword could not be used.

Moreover…

Although they were both at the peak of the Second Revolution, there was still a significant difference between the peak of the Second Revolution and the peak of the Second Revolution.

According to Fire Ritual's last words, it could be known that the people of the Fire family were born with the Fire Qilin bloodline.

Of course, Jian Nichang did not.

This was also why she had always been looked down upon by her peers in the Fire family, and why they scolded her.

And judging from the fire dragon that Fire Ember was holding in one hand at this time…

His strength should be much stronger than Fire Ritual.

Nearly twice as strong!

Lin Chen could not fight head-on.

Therefore, he returned to Tianyue City.

His loyal Tianyue City!

Here, there was the God-Slaying Formation.

He had the blessing of the formation to fight against this fire dragon.

Boom!

Fire Ember saw Fire Ritual's soul being swallowed…

Fire Ritual had no chance of survival!

This was a peak Second Revolution expert whose strength was close to Jin Qiang!

It was also another reliance of the Fire family to rule over the various large and small families in Zhenhai Province… The two absolute peak strength experts of the Second Revolution allowed the Fire family to be in a crushing state against other families at any time!

But now, Fire Ritual was killed.

Fire Ember's anger could be imagined.

This incredibly huge fire dragon was held in one hand by him, and with Fire Ember's angry push, it came towards Tianyue City to destroy it.

Roar!

Roar~

The Azure Dragon appeared once again.

This time, it directly swallowed all the water in the dark river!

Outside the City Lord's Mansion, the dark river, which was thousands of meters deep, seemed to have been drunk dry by it.

Then, the water dragon faced the fire dragon, which was twenty times larger than it, and went against the current…

The others were not idle either.

Bai Shuyi transformed into a Valkyrie, and the hammer in her hand slammed out a shockwave towards the fire dragon in the sky that was about to destroy Tianyue City; Jian Nichang pierced through the air with a sword…

Everyone hoped to share a bit of strength to stop the fire dragon.

"Mengyao, give me mana!"

Lin Chen spoke.

"Alright!" Liu Mengyao nodded.

The next moment, a spell descended on Lin Chen.

His mana was instantly full.

At this time, a dazed Winter appeared in front of Lin Chen.

His expression was full of disbelief…

Lin Chen actually reversed the penalty and killed a peak Second Revolution!

He killed Fire Ritual!

This was too terrifying!

But at this moment, Lin Chen showed Winter a cold smile and asked, "Mr. Winter, if I kill the Flame Marquis, Fire Ember, would Her Highness the Princess still be willing to cover for me, Lin Chen, for all of this?"

Boom!

Winter felt that he was stupid.

His head was buzzing…

What did that mean?

Lin Chen, at the First Revolution realm, reversed the penalty and killed a peak Second Revolution, Fire Ritual, that was one thing, but he…

Was he crazy?

That was Fire Ember!

One of the top twenty powerhouses in the entire Dragon Spirit Kingdom.

Now, you, a First Revolution, actually said that you want to kill him?

……
