Chapter 99: Burning World Raging Flames, Burn for Me

"Jiang Chen!"

"This battle will not end in my defeat once more!"

Upon witnessing the assault of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf on Jiang Chen, Ye Fan, his face distorted with a vicious resolve, astonishingly redirected his assault towards the disciples of the Ice Heart School, drawing Miao Xiaorui into the fray as well.

The Azure Jade Sect and the Ice Heart School, both heralding from the frigid expanses of the Snowy Wind Continent, were no strangers to the friction of frequent clashes.

Ye Fan's intentions were glaringly clear - he planned to sacrifice the disciples of the Ice Heart School as pawns, securing the monsters' inner cores for himself. His ambition didn't stop there; he also aimed to massacre them, in order to absorb the potent qi and blood from their fallen bodies.

"Hmph!"

"Your plans are mere daydreams with my presence!"

Jiang Chen retorted icily, his hands aloft, "Burning World Raging Flames!"

Boom, boom, boom.

An awe-inspiring surge of heat, terrifying in its intensity, filled the entirety of the underground palace in an instant.

The palace was swallowed in a sea of crimson, its other colors all but devoured by the onslaught of the flames!

The Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf was the target of Jiang Chen's Burning World Raging Flames.

Seemingly, it sensed the impending doom.

Guided by primal instinct, the Skywolf made a desperate attempt to evade.

But.

Despite its commendable speed, the Skywolf was powerless against the all-encompassing assault of the Burning World Raging Flames, finding no refuge in sight.

In the blink of an eye.

It was submerged in an infinite inferno.

"Roar, roar!"

Its agonized roars reverberated ominously from the heart of the flame sea.

But Jiang Chen paid no heed to the plight of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf. His attention was elsewhere - he was busy collecting the storage artifacts from Xu Yuan and the others, then he callously tossed their lifeless bodies into the all-consuming flames.

In the very next moment.

He propelled the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle directly towards Ye Fan!

Heavenly Origin realm, Half-step Heavenly Origin realm.

The difference seemed marginal, just a hair's breadth away.

Yet, the chasm in actual combat power was staggering.

Just as Ye Fan gravely injured Miao Xiaorui with a single, decisive strike, causing her to be hurled backwards, crashing into the ground with a thunderous thud, Jiang Chen had already materialized behind him.

"Perish!"

Jiang Chen and his sword seemed to merge into one, morphing into a slender streak of deadly intent.

'He is reputed for his mastery over ice, how could he command such potent flames!'

Fear gripped Ye Fan's heart, as his long saber whirled, crafting a wind-shielded barrier, "Majestic Gale Heavy Blade!"

Clang, clang, clang.

The longsword and the long saber collided frenziedly, sending tremors of battle energy radiating in all directions!

"Jiang Chen! My gratitude!"

Miao Xiaorui called out weakly, retreating hastily with the aid of her fellow disciples.

"All of you, retreat!"

Jiang Chen commanded Duan Ziming and the rest with a roar.

"We're withdrawing!"

Duan Ziming and his companions made the decisive choice to retreat.

They were no match for the power struggle between Jiang Chen and Ye Fan; their presence would only serve as a hindrance.

However.

The remaining disciples from the four sects only retreated as far as the entrance of the illusion mechanism passage, hesitant to venture any further.

They were acutely aware of the passage's terrifying nature.

At this juncture, everyone was in a weakened state, unwilling to tempt fate by testing its perilous depths.

"Let's await Jiang Chen here!"

With a wave of Duan Ziming's hand, everyone instantly halted, commencing to tend to their injuries.

One by one, the disciples from the Ice Heart School and the Floating Spirit Sect ceased their retreat.

The disciples from the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain huddled warily in a corner, prepared to breach the illusion trap passage at a moment's notice.

Because.

They were well aware of the deep-seated enmity Jiang Chen harbored against their sect!

At this point, Jiang Chen was engaged in fierce combat with Ye Fan. Assisted by his flying artifact, he seemed to be gaining the upper hand.

If he could overcome Ye Fan, then it would be the turn of the disciples from the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain.

On the battlefield.

"You impudent whelp!"

"Today might just be the day you meet your end!"

Jiang Chen sneered, his Shadowblade Sword swinging with full force, launching an all-out attack.

"Begone!!"

Ye Fan bellowed in fury, his face painted with a crimson flush as he swung his long saber wildly, attempting to fend off Jiang Chen's relentless onslaught.

Despite his mastery over a plethora of cultivation methods and a diverse range of battle techniques, coupled with his extensive combat experience, he found himself being steadily overwhelmed by Jiang Chen.

Indeed, Ye Fan excelled when it came to defeating adversaries beyond his level.

But once the challenge surpassed his threshold, he found himself somewhat at a loss.

Just at that moment.

"Roar!"

To everyone's shock, the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf, its body wreathed in flames, burst forth from the Burning World Raging Flames, launching an attack on Jiang Chen.

"You beast!"

Jiang Chen's brows knit together in consternation.

If it had been any ordinary Mysterious Platform realm demonic beast, even one at the Half-step Heavenly Origin realm, it should have been reduced to ashes by now.

But this Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf appeared to be a unique case.

It lacked a true life force.

What drove it into battle was the remnant instinct harbored within its body, coupled with a mysterious power.

In the blink of an eye, the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf had launched an attack from behind Jiang Chen, its claw ferociously swiping down towards his back.

"A golden opportunity!"

A wave of exhilaration swept through Ye Fan's heart. He promptly seized the moment, trapping Jiang Chen by cutting off all his escape routes.

"Hmph!"

With a curt snort, Jiang Chen was left with no choice but to pivot and face the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf, his sword swinging in retaliation.

His Shadowblade Sword, wrapped in a vast expanse of Burning World Raging Flames, directly clashed with the claw of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf.

Clang!

Five extraordinarily resilient wolf claws were thrust high up in the air.

The Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf abruptly retracted its now clawless leg, its enormous maw gaping wide as it lunged to bite Jiang Chen.

Simultaneously.

"Perish!"

"Flawless Heavy Severing Blade!"

Ye Fan hoisted his long saber high above, wielding it with all his might to cleave Jiang Chen in two!

The very next moment.

Jiang Chen neither dodged nor evaded; instead, he targeted the throat of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf with his sword, thrusting it forward.

Thud!

His sword, charged with a sharply piercing sword Qi and the terrifying Burning World Raging Flames, plunged directly into the throat of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf.

In the same breath.

Both the wide-open jaws of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf, teeming with razor-sharp fangs, and Ye Fan's long saber struck Jiang Chen in unison.

"Jiang Chen!!"

Duan Ziming and the others cried out in shock, springing into action from their positions to lend aid.

However, the scene that unfolded in the next moment halted them in their tracks.

Because on Jiang Chen's body, a barrier reminiscent of a wind-shield abruptly materialized, repelling the assaults of both the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf and Ye Fan.

It was the Heavenly Origin realm defensive artifact, the Carefree Heavenly Extreme Robe!

"How can this be!"

Ye Fan found this almost beyond belief.

Did Jiang Chen truly possess not one, but two Heavenly Origin realm artifacts?!

At this moment.

Boom!

Flames burst forth from within the body of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf, akin to a barrage of cannons detonating within a rag doll.

"Howl!"

The Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf bellowed, its head thrashing wildly as it beat a hasty retreat!

Some blackened organ fragments, along with thick, viscous blood, spewed forth from the mouth of the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf.

'Its qi and blood!'

A look of surprise and delight flashed across Ye Fan's face. Swiftly sidestepping away from Jiang Chen, he held the Wordless Heavenly Jade in his left hand, pressing it into his flesh.

Instantaneously.

Strands of qi and blood energy began to pool into the Wordless Heavenly Jade from the surrounding air!

'So, he's down to his final trump card?'

'Seems I gave him too much credit. Ye Fan doesn't have any more hidden aces up his sleeve.'

Upon witnessing Ye Fan expose his most vital treasure, Jiang Chen heaved a sigh of relief.

The reason he had refrained from advancing his cultivation before stepping onto the stage was rooted in his concern that Ye Fan might still have hidden aces up his sleeve.

However, at this juncture, Ye Fan had revealed his heaven-defying trump card; it was evident that he had exhausted his repertoire of strategies.

"Burning World Raging Flames, burn for me!"

A chilling smile graced Jiang Chen's lips as an overwhelming wave of flames erupted from his very being, essentially transforming him into a human embodiment of a flamethrower.

The profuse Burning World Raging Flames set about incinerating the qi and blood energy permeating the air.

Upon witnessing this, Ye Fan's countenance underwent a drastic transformation.

Without a moment's hesitation, he lunged towards the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf.

If he could harness the qi and blood energy from the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf, he would have the power to overturn the dire situation in an instant!

Regrettably.

'I won't afford you that opportunity!'

With deft control over the Black Crystal Sky Piercing Shuttle, Jiang Chen bypassed Ye Fan entirely, launching an attack adjacent to the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf.

At this stage, the Skywolf was so grievously burnt that it had been rendered sightless, its eyes lost to the flames.

Its colossal wolf head was nearly reduced to a grisly, flesh-adorned skeletal form.

Its fighting prowess was precipitously dwindling, its movements hesitant and faltering; it teetered on the brink of collapse.

Whoosh!

The residual image of Jiang Chen traversed over the Extreme Wind Splitting Skywolf's head, and in unison, a streak of sword light flashed across the scene.
