Chapter 360 – Fire Chaser, Legendary Level Panel! You Almost Hit Me
Under the purplish-red sky, the azure flame flowed silently.
A fair-skinned, handsome young man stood quietly, his eyes lowered. The emerald green surrounded him as if he were immersed in a dense Oak tree grove or lying in a tranquil jade river.
[Fire Chaser. Azure Flame (Legendary)], Progress: 5%.
Lu Yuan looked at this newly unlocked professional panel.
His sixth professional panel.
The first legendary level professional panel.
His mood was relaxed and calm.
There was no excessive joy.
Because compared to everything he had suffered, this legendary level professional panel’s unlocking seemed like the most natural thing.
Fire, fire, fire!
Burning, scorching…
Flesh rotting, bone marrow parched…
Pain, despair, near madness…
Lu Yuan closed his eyes, and infinite scenes of the gold-red scorching volcano interior unconsciously floated in his mind.
He saw through the adage of [Chaos Divination].
The heavily injured and dying Phoenix, which failed its nirvana, used all its essence blood to create a nurturing bed for the Phoenix Egg.
The entire volcano was infused with the Phoenix’s flesh and bones, and the magma flowing inside the volcano was the Phoenix’s remaining essence blood…
These were treasures a hundred times more precious than the Phoenix Egg itself.
Lu Yuan had gambled and won, finding it smoothly.
But what he hadn’t anticipated was.
The process of obtaining it was so difficult.
As if fighting the world’s most ferocious and brutal beast, fortunately…
He survived.
In the end, he tamed the beast.
[Name: Lu Yuan]
[Age: 17]
[Strength points: 35 (limit break 2)]
[Agility points: 35 (limit break 2)]
[Constitution points: 35 (limit break 2)]
[Intelligence points: 36 (limit break 2)]
The improvement in the attribute panel was significant, akin to a complete transformation.
Coupled with the unlocking of a legendary level professional panel, Lu Yuan’s gains were unparalleled.
Moreover…
It seemed he had yet to fully digest the wealth of this acquisition.
Within his chest, at the center of the “First Transformation Blood Pill,” which had grown to the size of a human head, quietly floated a mass of shimmering golden liquid.
This was the essence of the Phoenix’s life. Lu Yuan could feel the dense, exotic aura emanating from the golden liquid.
It was even more mystical and majestic than the aura of the Hundred-eyed Nether Crow Feather that also resided in his chest.
The once-proud Hundred-eyed Nether Crow Feather had been forced aside by the golden liquid, not daring to compete with it.
“What is stronger than the legendary level?”
Lu Yuan blinked, pondering, “Is it the mythical level?”
Unfortunately, the Phoenix essence was as solid as a rock, completely indigestible by him. He could only use the blood pill to repeatedly flush it with life force, trying to gradually assimilate it into his bones and flesh.
Throughout this process.
His grandmaster body seemed to undergo some mysterious transformations, but they were too subtle to be felt distinctly.
However, he could sense the gradual increase in his four basic attributes.
“Overall, it’s a good thing.”
Lu Yuan thought.
Then he brought his mind back to his external body.
He looked at the emerald green flame flowing between his fingers, feeling the nearly endless heat waves surging toward him in this world.
Invisible flames clustered around him, worshipping him, as if he were the center of it all.
The spirit of flame, the sovereign of heat.
“Legendary level…”
Lu Yuan closed his eyes and let out a gentle sigh.
He spread his arms, his dark hair with a hint of emerald fluttering in the breeze. His handsome face was full of genuine intoxication and contemplation.
This gentle sigh seemed to break the tranquil atmosphere before him.
After a momentary silence.
“Buzz-“
A sudden roar from the Mecha’s superpowered engine sounded, bringing the powerhouses of the joint exploration team out of their brief shock and daze, and they almost simultaneously pounced on him!
The deceased Oresa lay quietly on the scorching lava ground.
His death served as a harsh warning to all the hunters.
This time, no one hesitated in their attack.
More than twenty sixth-stage and even seventh-stage combat power surged together, forming a terrifying energy storm that swept overwhelmingly toward Lu Yuan.
The invisible gale stirred Lu Yuan’s loose hair before his forehead. In his emerald green eyes, the images of these attackers were reflected.
His expression, however, remained calm. Rather than evading, he lowered his head to look at the snow-white colossal egg nestled against his ankle, extending two fingers as he softly whispered, “For the second time…”
“Cuckoo-“
A familiar sound resonated from within the snow-white colossal egg, a mixture of rightful indignation and an inexplicable hint of guilt.
Lu Yuan shook his head, retracting his gaze, then took a gentle step forward.
Beneath his step, the air revealed a beautiful emerald flame footprint.
As Lu Yuan walked, the footprints behind him increased, forming a clear trail of flames.
The flames on his body gradually intensified, silently and fiercely burning, resembling a lush tree rapidly growing until it stood towering.
“Boom-“
Lightly tapping the void beneath his feet, Lu Yuan leapt upward, surpassing the heads of the attackers.
Then, from his elevated position, with an indomitable momentum, he suddenly dived into the crowd below.
“Boom!”
An emerald flame storm erupted violently at the moment Lu Yuan’s figure plummeted.
The vast, intertwined energy field was shattered instantaneously.
Terrifying heat waves surged like a tsunami, and the emerald flames spread expansively.
Five or six figures were flung from the battle group like cannonballs, all engulfed in the intense emerald flames.
The temperature of these flames was incredibly high, easily burning through the energy fields of the sky level armaments. Earth level armaments and Earth level Mechas were as fragile as sheets of paper under the flames.
One sixth-stage supernova powerhouse from a certain faction watched in horror as the superalloy battle blade in his hand was effortlessly engulfed by emerald flames, melting away like a candle.
Terrified, he hastily discarded the remaining half of the battle blade, spitting out a mouthful of blood, but what emerged was blackened ash filled with the stench of burning.
An earth level mecha was engulfed in flames and within just a few breaths, it was reduced to a twisted metal skeleton.
The pilot inside didn’t even have the time to escape before the entire mecha exploded into a burst of sparks with a “boom”…
In a single encounter.
Just one encounter.
A small batch of powerhouses from the united forces had been eliminated and swept off the battlefield.
Their combat power was generally at the sixth-stage, but not reaching the seventh stage.
They were considered top-tier powerhouses.
Yet they couldn’t withstand even this wide-range attack.
The onlookers witnessing this scene felt a chill run down their spines, and those initially eager to join in were now completely dissuaded.
Anyone with combat power below the sixth-stage didn’t even have the qualifications to participate in this battle.
Many people abruptly realized why Oresa had been instantly killed with one strike.
It wasn’t because Oresa was careless, nor because he was weak.
It was because the guy they were currently fighting was just too terrifying!
“Hoo-“
Lu Yuan slightly swayed as a deep-red, almost tangible energy beam shot past him, narrowly missing his body.
The [Three Flowers] already activated, and the secret technique of The Fusion of Two Flowers was in progress.
The surging blood and spirit, although it didn’t amplify the “azure flame” under the fire chaser panel, did provide him with battle consciousness and instinctive combat skills that far surpassed the seventh stage.
His body was becoming less fragile, and his control over the azure flame was becoming more sophisticated and effortless.
“Domain…”
With 36 intelligence points, and the mental power multiplied ninefold through the secret technique of The Fusion of Two Flowers, Lu Yuan’s mental power had reached levels comparable to the eighth-stage!
Coupled with the ninefold increase in his blood and energy, the moment he unleashed the Grandmaster’s Domain, it was as if an invisible and transparent nuclear bomb had exploded on the battlefield.
“Boom-Buzz-“
A highly distorted, almost visibly shimmering wave of light spread outwards abruptly.
In an instant, all the silhouettes on the battlefield were frozen in place.
The energy fields around the six towering sky level mechas, each tens of meters high, suddenly and violently collapsed.
After a brief pause, the sky level mechas began to madly unleash terrifying energy attacks. However, the landing points of these attacks were completely erratic and aimless, like the spasmodic flailing of someone in frenzy.
No one saw.
In the cockpits of each sky level mecha, amid the rapid flashing of countless alarm lights, sat pilots drenched in sweat, faces contorted, struggling to operate their mechas while enduring excruciating pain that felt like their brains were being torn apart.
Amid the countless energy offensives blossoming like fireworks, Lu Yuan walked calmly, gracefully enveloped by emerald flames.
With the Grandmaster’s Domain enveloping the entire battlefield, he seemed like the sole ruler of this space.
The supernova powerhouses armed to the teeth, the modification system powerhouses, and the earth level and sky level mechas all seemed like mere insects intruding upon his domain.
Beyond desperately flapping their wings in struggle, they posed no threat to him whatsoever.
“Swish-“
Casually raising his hand, Lu Yuan flicked the azure flame coiled around his arm. It trailed through the air, leaving a path of emerald green that quickly broadened, sweeping across several figures.
The powerhouses trying to break free from the Domain’s restraints froze the moment the flame’s path caught them.
In the next instant, their bodies split into two from the midsection, collapsing in separate pieces.
“Die!”
A low growl suddenly rang in Lu Yuan’s ear, accompanied by a surge of formless pressure.
A myriad of dazzling light spots soared into the sky, forming the outline of a star diagram, ultimately focusing into an alloy fist.
“Boom!”
The terrifying burst of Strength broke momentarily through the Domain’s confinement, transforming into a massive pillar of light that crashed down on Lu Yuan.
“Lu Yuan’s” figure shattered like foam beneath the light pillar.
The brown-haired youth who had exerted all his Strength into this punch, displayed a twisted, grimacing expression that froze on his face, eyes gleaming with disbelief.
“You are already very strong…”
A light sigh sounded in his ear.
The youth’s hairs stood on end as he whirled around. Just as he tried to gather his inner Strength again, a fair and slender hand gently clasped his neck.
The protective sky level armament around his neck quickly melted under the burning emerald flame that flowed through the hand gripping him.
The terrifying heat quickly reached the brown-haired youth’s neck, penetrating his skin.
A flood of unprecedented pain and fear surged from the depths of his heart, overwhelming him. With a horror-stricken expression, he desperately channeled the Strength from nearly twenty star acupoints in his body, attempting to halt the invasion of the horrific flame.
Lu Yuan effortlessly lifted the brown-haired youth with one hand. His emerald eyes looked down at him calmly, observing his futile struggles. “You were so close… you almost hit me,” he said softly.
With that.
A large surge of emerald flame burst from his fingers, engulfing the brown-haired youth entirely.
“Crackle-“
After a moment of sharp and dense burning sounds.
The raging emerald flames retracted and extinguished.
Lu Yuan glanced down, shaking his hand slightly.
He flicked away a large chunk of multicolored molten metal sticking to his palm and frowned slightly, muttering to himself, “Really does burn, doesn’t it…”
Casually eliminating what seemed to be Javier’s strongest combat power.
Lu Yuan continued to move around the battlefield.
Thanks to the enhancements to his senses and mental perception from the Grandmaster’s Domain, he easily annihilated all the non-mecha combat units.
Finally, only the six sky level mechas remained on the battlefield.
