Chapter 540: Chapter 537: Thunderstorm!_1
At this moment, Yang Chen was suspended high in the sky, standing with his hands behind his back, not saying a word.
When he saw the fire creatures, the team of fire creatures quickly positioned themselves around ten feet away from Yang Chen. The group of fire creatures was on full alert, obviously not foolish enough to charge directly at Yang Chen.
“Don’t rush over,” the head fire creature shouted. “This kid is so calm and composed. We don’t know what kind of cards he has up his sleeve. He’s waiting for us here, which means he’s confident. It’s not going to be that simple. Don’t act recklessly.”
Yang Chen naturally heard the fire creature’s words clearly. He cracked a smile but said nothing.
“Fourth Brother, I think you’re overthinking it. How would this kid know we have so many companions? After killing four of our brethren, he must be feeling quite pleased with himself. As for now, he’s probably just pretending to be calm. In my opinion, with so many of us, are we really afraid of just one human?”
“Yeah, Fourth Brother, this kid is only at the third layer of the Origin Martial Realm. Although we don’t know how he killed Lang Tu and the others back then, with so many of us, are we really scared of him?”
Facing these questions, the Fourth Brother fire creature, surrounded by flames, fell into hesitation.
Yang Chen remained silent, only looking at the fire creatures casually.
“Young Master, among these fire creatures, there are twelve at the Origin Martial Realm. The rest are all at the Spirit Martial Realm and not worth mentioning. Six of these Origin Martial Realm fire creatures are between the first and third layers. Using the Thunderstorm Demolition Array, we can kill them in a short time. The remaining six are between the third and sixth levels of the Origin Martial Realm, which may be difficult to kill with the Thunderstorm Demolition Array. However, once the thunder and rain are over, there will be white fog. In the fog, I can assist you, Young Master, to deal with them,” Yun Lu replied.
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen had a strategy in mind.
At the same time, the fire creatures cautiously approached Yang Chen.
Fire Essence Beast Fourth Brother, the one called Tu Ao, stared at Yang Chen with a cold and expressionless face. “You are Yang Chen?”
“Oh? You recognize me?” Yang Chen squinted.
“So it seems that my comrades died at your hands.” Tu Ao said with a snarl.
Yang Chen smiled slightly, “What do you think?”
“Hmph, as expected. As for you humans, it’s not hard to find someone with a memory of you. All these humans call you the number one genius in the Great Wilderness. I didn’t think there would be any geniuses in the Great Wilderness, but you genuinely surprised me. Reaching the third layer of the Origin Martial Realm at such a young age, kid, you’re extraordinary,” Tu Ao said, flames spitting from his mouth.
Yang Chen remained composed, showing no emotion, as he had a sudden epiphany.
That’s right, any Da Huang person could easily search for memories and discover what he looked like. It wasn’t strange for the fire creatures to recognize him.
With that thought, Yang Chen spoke with his usual demeanor, “Oh, thank you for the compliment.”
“Praise you? No, no, no, Yang Chen, you’ve got it wrong. I have no intention of praising you. I just want to tell you that there was once an old man whose memories I searched. This old man really had a big life, as he actually survived after I performed a Soul Search on him. I didn’t torture him less, haha, Yang Chen, you don’t have to thank me. I did all this for you. Oh, I forgot to tell you, the people of the Yang family seemed to call him Elder Yang,” Tu Ao revealed his ferocious fangs and burst into laughter.
As he laughed, the other fire creatures laughed as well.
As far as the fire creatures were concerned, the lives of humans were so insignificant that they could be killed or tortured at will.
Such an act enraged Yang Chen.
Yang Chen’s heart was ablaze, and soon, he responded with a hard tone, “You want to provoke me? Fine, I’ll tell you, you’ve succeeded. Fire creatures, your idea isn’t bad. Deliberately enraging me while you don’t know what cards I have up my sleeve is just your way of trying to make me reveal my cards.”
“Since that’s the case, I’ll show you what I’ve got. You’ve been so cautious, but it’s a pity that you’ve already entered.”
Yes, these fire creatures were very careful, obviously wary of the Formation’s power.
However, the Formation made by the Fishpeople Tribe wouldn’t have left out your ‘considerations’, would it?
Yang Chen waved his hand and shouted, “Formation, start!”
At that instant, the six Fishmen who had been waiting in position at various locations in the Formation activated it.
In an instant, thunderbolts fell from the sky above the Formation, crashing down with a clatter. Rain poured down immediately after. The Formation was filled with thunderstorms while the outside world was sunny and clear, showing a striking contrast.
Even the most foolish, like Tu Ao, would realize that they had entered the Formation.
“When did this happen?” Tu Ao believed that he had been cautious enough, but he never thought that he would still fall into the trap.
Just as the thought crossed his mind, a sudden scream resounded.
“Ah!”
Those thunderbolts struck without warning, and the fire creatures at the Spirit Martial Realm were instantly annihilated by the lightning strikes.
“Quick, defend! Defend!” Tu Ao’s anger surged, and he bellowed out commands.
But his command was futile. After the first fire creature fell, a second one followed, then a third. At first, it affected those at the Spirit Martial Realm, but soon those at the Origin Martial Realm were affected. A single strike might not bring them down, but after being hit several times in a row, they couldn’t hold on.
Time passed, and the bodies of the fire creatures fell from the sky one after another. Although there were more than 20 of them, they were instantly reduced to a desperate, isolated force in the Formation.
Morale was non-existent.
The fire creatures roared and howled in anger.
Yang Chen showed no mercy, knowing that this was the difference between their races.
“Fire creatures, while you are in our human territory, you should be prepared to face the consequences. This place is not for you to run wild!” Yang Chen’s voice echoed in all directions, reaching the ears of the Feng family members and stirring their blood.
Tu Ao’s heart was filled with hatred. He wanted to fight back, but the fire creatures around him needed his care; if he didn’t pay attention to them, the casualties would be more severe.
And so the thunderbolts continued to strike, and the corrosive rain fell, lasting for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Finally, it stopped.
Tu Ao thought that he could finally take a breath and retaliate. Looking at the seven or eight remaining fire creatures at the Origin Martial Realm, he prepared to strike back; however, in the next moment, a layer of white fog appeared, enveloping the entire Formation. Within the fog, his spiritual senses and vision were completely obstructed.
One thing after another had them struggling to breathe.
