Chapter 375: Chapter 191: Battle Against the Azure Flame Sect Golden Core: Triple Kill, Part 2
Each orb was as large as a carriage wheel. They formed two nets, one behind the other, and rained down on Xiao Chen.
This move looked simple, but it was actually one of Golden Mace True Man’s two most powerful forms of Magic.
The thirty-six Dharma Pearls were all condensed from True Essence, and each one concealed a Red Fire Thunder within.
If an opponent failed to block even a single Dharma Pearl and allowed it to get close, their Body Protection Technique would be easily torn apart by the concealed Red Fire Thunder, inflicting grievous injuries.
Facing the incoming Dharma Pearls, Xiao Chen methodically channeled his Magical Power and cast the Jade Platform Fire Lotus.
A three-foot-wide Jade Platform instantly materialized beneath his feet.
Following that, a crimson Fire Lotus bloomed around him, sheltering him completely within the hollow heart of the flower.
When Golden Mace True Man saw Xiao Chen using Protective Magic to deal with the Dharma Pearls, the corners of his lips instantly curled upward.
’I thought he must have been well-prepared to take the initiative like this. I was expecting a fierce battle.’
’Turns out I was just overthinking it.’
’He’s just another reckless fool like Master Bisong, running headfirst to his death.’
’Using Protective Magic to block my Red Fire Thunder pearls? That’s like throwing an egg against a rock—a complete death wish!’
BOOM! BOOM!...
The Red Fire Thunders detonated one after another.
But under Golden Mace True Man’s expectant gaze, the outer lotus petals remained completely unscathed, without a single scratch.
.
’This... How is this possible?’
Golden Mace True Man’s expression instantly turned ugly, and he was horrified beyond belief.
’Red Fire Thunder is specifically designed to counter Body Protection Techniques. A single one should have been enough to work.’
’And yet, all thirty-six Dharma Pearls just hit their mark, and they couldn’t harm Xiao Chen in the slightest.’
’This completely shattered his entire understanding of how things worked.’
’To have such incredible Magic Cultivation right after achieving Core Formation... If I let him continue to grow, the Li Huo Sect unifying Li State, and even the entire Southern Domain, will only be a matter of time.’
’Since our sects are already mortal enemies, this boy absolutely cannot be allowed to live!’
At this thought, Golden Mace True Man immediately abandoned the idea of capturing Xiao Chen alive to force the secret of his power out of him.
Instead, he took out a Jade Talisman from his robes—his last resort—intending to eliminate this threat with overwhelming force.
He activated the Jade Talisman with his left hand and tossed it into the air.
The Jade Talisman instantly transformed into a forty-nine-zhang-long Fire Dragon. With horns on its head and four-clawed feet, for a moment it looked as if a True Dragon had descended upon the world.
With the Fire Dragon at its center, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within a ten-li radius was instantly sucked dry.
Even the fierce winds in the sky stilled, parting around the coiling, colossal dragon.
Such a massive disturbance immediately startled the other four Golden Core cultivators nearby.
The moment they saw the Fire Dragon, all four of them were stunned.
Gui Yan Zhenren looked on in confusion, unable to understand why the fight had just begun, yet Golden Mace True Man had already been forced to use the ultimate trump card passed down from the previous generation of Azure Flame Sect Daoists.
Zixiao Zhenren, however, immediately realized what was happening.
A look of mingled astonishment and regret crossed his face as he gazed at Xiao Chen.
’Why did such an incredible genius have to hail from the Li Huo Sect’s domain?’
’If only he had joined our Azure Flame Sect instead. What a boon that would have been.’
Master Ming Yan instinctively changed course, veering away from the Fire Dragon.
Yunxiang Daoist’s expression changed, however, and she tried to shake off Zixiao Zhenren to rush over and help.
’Even though I’m injured,’ she thought, ’I still have my Profound Light Silver Armor. It would definitely be safer for the two of us to face this together than for him to do it alone.’
However, Zixiao Zhenren was no pushover. With a flash of purple energy from his hand, sixty-six chains instantly shot out, binding Yunxiang Daoist and her Protective Spiritual Light completely.
"Go!"
Golden Mace True Man pointed at Xiao Chen, and the colossal Fire Dragon immediately dove toward him.
It seemed to want to swallow him whole, Jade Platform Fire Lotus and all.
"True Yang Dragon Transformation, arise!"
Yet Xiao Chen remained perfectly calm. He unhurriedly recited a Mantra and raised a hand, summoning a Fire Dragon of his own.
Only, his Fire Dragon was dozens of times larger by comparison.
It was a full one thousand two hundred zhang long!
As it coiled in the sky, it looked like a vast expanse of fiery clouds, blanketing the sky above everyone present.
Huh?
Master Ming Yan’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He stared incredulously at the massive dragon in the sky. ’What the hell is that thing?’
’It wasn’t that he didn’t recognize the Magic.’
’Quite the opposite. It was precisely because he was so familiar with the True Yang Nine Dragon Dance that he couldn’t comprehend what was going on.’
’He had practiced that Magic himself. At the entry-level, one could summon a twelve-zhang-long Fire Dragon.’
’It looked pretty much the same as the one in the sky: two eyes, two horns, two pairs of ox-like ears, four legs, four claws, and four pairs of whiskers.’
’Setting aside the difference in size, could it be the same Magic?’
’But how could anyone possibly set that aside?’
"Go!"
Xiao Chen pointed a finger, and the True Yang Fire Dragon immediately swept down, engulfing the comparatively tiny forty-nine-zhang-long fire dragon on the spot.
Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say it simply used its enormous size to overwhelm its target.
Not a single spark escaped.
’Is that it?’
’Magical Combat after Core Formation seems even easier than I imagined.’
’Or maybe the combined effect of two Augments is just far more ridiculous than I anticipated.’
’When the power gap is this large, it’s not really Magical Combat anymore. It’s just a one-sided steamrolling.’
"Fire Break!"
Golden Mace True Man raised his hand, sending another Jade Talisman flying. This was a Fire-breaking Talisman, specifically designed to counter Fire Magic.
A sea-blue radiance flashed, and a large section of the Fire Dragon’s body instantly dissolved.
In the blink of an eye, a full two hundred zhang of the massive Fire Dragon had been melted away, leaving... a mere one thousand zhang!
