Crimson magma shot into the sky, setting the entire heavens ablaze.

Violent energy fluctuations kept producing rumbling booms like muffled thunder. Even though Ye Chen and the others were quite far from the battlefield, their ears still rang from the shock.

"It's actually a Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon. I never thought a beast like this was hidden inside Fire Dragon Mountain!" Old Luo's expression turned solemn as well, and he vaguely understood why Lin Yuheng and the Black Fire Sect had come here with such fanfare.

"It's said that the Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon possesses a strong trace of Dragon Clan bloodline. At its peak, it can grow to the strength of the Peak Seventh Tier, making it an extremely formidable existence among the many lesser dragon-type Magical Beasts..."

When Ye Chen heard this, a faint excitement appeared in his expression.

It seemed he really had not come here for nothing. With the bloodline level and strength of this Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon, it was more than enough to form the shape for his Star Vein Diagram!

Of course, judging by the current situation, it would not be that easy for him to obtain this Fire Spirit Flood Dragon, so everything would still have to fall on these people...

As he thought this, Ye Chen's gaze subtly landed on the backs of Old Luo and the others up ahead.

He secretly gave Hu Tian beside him a look. Then, while everyone's attention was drawn to the enormous creature in the sky, Ye Chen used Dou Qi to compress his voice into a thin thread and whispered a few words into Hu Tian's ear.

After Hu Tian heard Ye Chen's words, his heart shook. His expression first darkened, but when he saw the determination in Ye Chen's eyes, he could only nod with difficulty.

There was no helping it. What Ye Chen had just said was far too dangerous. The slightest carelessness could lead to a major disaster, so how could he not worry?

Just after Ye Chen and Hu Tian finished whispering, Old Luo beside them suddenly turned his head, looked at the two of them, and said, "Song Gongzi, in a moment, I'll have to ask Mr. Hu to join me in taking action to stop those two Strong Persons from the Black Fire Sect."

The two Strong Persons the Black Fire Sect had brought this time were both Nine Star Dou Huang-level experts. Among those present, aside from Old Luo, only Hu Tian could stop one of them.

As for the other two groups, whether they would be enemies or allies when the time came was truly hard to say...

Ye Chen, who had already made his decision, nodded in agreement at once. "Fine. In a moment, Old Hu will go with you, while I'll watch from a distance for the time being..."

Then he looked at Hu Tian and gave him a reassuring glance.

After they finished discussing the plan, the battle in the sky had already begun...

Facing the joint assault of several Dou Huang experts, even though this Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon was already at the peak of the Sixth Tier, it was still faintly suppressed.

"Move!" Old Luo shouted in a low voice, then led Lin Yutong's subordinates straight toward the battlefield.

Hu Tian looked at Ye Chen with some concern, then sighed and followed.

In a short while, Ye Chen was the only one left where they had been.

Narrowing his eyes as he looked at the group that had disappeared, Ye Chen knew they definitely would not make a move now. Only when the Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon had been beaten down and the people from the Black Fire Sect had exhausted themselves would it be the best time for Old Luo and the others to act.

As for Ye Chen, he would have to wait until the battlefield truly descended into chaos...

As he thought this, a layer of silver flame armor covered Ye Chen's body. With Starfire at its current level, even when facing a Dou Wang, it would be impossible for him to be killed in a single strike.

Violent Dou Qi erupted beneath his feet, instantly stamping a huge pit into the black volcanic rock under him. Ye Chen himself turned into an afterimage and rushed along the ridge toward the battle circle.

At this moment, on the battlefield in the sky—

Under the Black Fire Sect's massive offensive, the already battered Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon burned with fury, dragon roars repeatedly ringing from its mouth.

"Despicable humans! Ganging up on one with your numbers—what kind of ability is that? If you've got the guts, fight this emperor one-on-one and decide life or death!"

Opposite it, a Black Fire Sect Strong Person wearing a black robe patterned with fiery markings slashed down with a long blade condensed from flame Dou Qi, striking the Fire Spirit Flood Dragon's body. In an instant, scales flew from the latter's body and blood splattered everywhere...

"A beast is still a beast. Even after becoming a Dou Huang, you're still this stupid!" the black-robed Strong Person sneered. "We're relying on numbers to bully the few. One-on-one? What do you think this is, an arena match?"

"Roar! You dare humiliate this emperor like this? I'll make sure none of you leave the Fire Dragon Mountain Range alive!"

As the Fire Spirit Flood Dragon's furious voice rang out, the firelight on its body blazed brilliantly. In the blink of an eye, surging Crimson Flames abruptly surged out from within its body, finally gathering into a massive crimson Fire Pillar that shot straight into the sky...

That scorching heat, even from over a thousand meters away, still made Ye Chen, who was protected by Starfire below, feel as if he were drenched in sweat.

"Damn! What a terrifying display." Ye Chen crouched beneath a huge boulder, wiped away the sweat rolling down his forehead, and stared in shock at the enormous fire dragon high in the distant sky, unable to help thinking to himself.

In the sky, facing the maddened Fire Spirit Flood Dragon, the two Strong Persons from the Black Fire Sect did not dare be careless.

The two of them swung the flaming long blades in their hands at the same time. In just a moment, a colossal Flame storm that connected heaven and earth had already taken shape.

"My god! So this is a real battle between Dou Huang..."

Ye Chen watched the enormous Flame storm in the sky carry the violent sound of wind and thunder as it madly swept toward the Unicorn Fire Spirit Flood Dragon. Everywhere the Flame storm passed, the mountains and rocks below were actually plowed into a valley. Many Magical Beasts that failed to dodge in time were swept straight into it and torn to pieces.

Previously, on the Wind Cloud Arena in Clear Moon City, although those fighting had also been Dou Huang experts, it had been an arena match after all. It was impossible for them to use terrifying Dou Techniques of this level...

Moreover, an attack of this level consumed far too much from the users. Even two Nine Star Dou Huang needed to join hands to unleash it, so it was very difficult to see on ordinary days.

Boom!

A deafening peal of thunder exploded out of nowhere in the clear sky.

The massive Flame storm and the Fire Pillar condensed to the extreme by the Fire Spirit Flood Dragon collided violently, each frantically releasing terrifying energy. At the point where the two met, space itself seemed to ripple faintly.

Ye Chen struggled against the raging aftershocks that swept toward him, narrowing his eyes as he looked at the battlefield in the sky...

Only to see that the crimson Fire Pillar ultimately failed to break through the Flame storm that connected heaven and earth. Instead, it was directly shattered by the violent tearing force within the storm.

And after destroying the Fire Pillar, the Flame storm still did not lose momentum. It directly swept the Fire Spirit Flood Dragon's enormous body into it as well...

"Roar...!!!"

In the next moment, the Fire Spirit Flood Dragon's miserable roar came from the center of the storm.

Seeing this scene, the two Strong Persons from the Black Fire Sect on the battlefield secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although that attack just now had been performed by the two of them together, it had also consumed quite a bit of their strength.

With such a terrifying attack, let alone a Magical Beast comparable to the peak of Dou Huang, even a Dou Zong-level Strong Person could forget about blocking it!

But the instant they breathed a sigh of relief, several black figures suddenly rushed up from within the mountain range into the high sky, attacking the two of them with lightning speed!
