Chapter 2221.2: Execution
“Hahahaha!!” Bi Chen threw his head back with laughter to see the cultivators so nervous, utter glee in his heart. He’d been depressed ever since an ignoble brat by the name of Lu Yun had beaten him in Dark City. Now that he was able to vent his spleen on formidable Great Xia cultivators, it soothed him from head to toe.
“Very well, let me try!” Bi Chen was a monster spirit and completely unbridled in his style. Others might fear Marquis Skyrule, he did not. He’d kill whoever he wanted and damn the consequences.
A crimson dragon shadow surged around his body and slowly sharpened into focus. It was three hundred meters long and replete with claws and scales, but there were no dragon horns on its head. It was the image of a chi-dragon.
Chi-dragons were a cadet branch of the dragon bloodline. They were less than their draconic cousins, but they were still divine beasts.
The fiery sea jerked in a bizarre direction when the scaled-dragon image formed and created a fiery vortex that wrapped around Bi Chen.
“It’s the bloodline of the divine beast chi-dragon! He’s fully activated it!” Xia Houwan gasped with dismay. The cultivators around him backed away as the power emitted by the chi-dragon shadow was too enormous to bear.
Of the draconic cadet branches, ying-dragons controlled water, qiu-dragons controlled lightning, chi-dragons controlled fire… Since Bi Chen had the chi-dragon bloodline in him, this fiery sea was his domain.
He was in full control of the tossing waves. The previously docile sea erupted like a volcano.
“Damn it, stop!” Ji Lin yelled. Xia Houwan would be dead without a doubt if the fiery sea raged out of control. If he died, then Marquis Skyrule might very well punish the Jade Ruins cultivators, given his personality.
Although he would ultimately be curtailed by the Dao Academy, many in the realm would have to suffer first before he was brought to heel.
Thus, Ji Lin didn’t hesitate to raise his spear and stir up a wave of fire, stabbing the weapon at Bi Chen’s chest. If things were as if before, Ji Lin would cower in front of Bi Chen and not even dare raise his voice. He was absolutely no match for the other.
But after his cultivation took a great leap forward thanks to the fortuitous encounter in the place of burial, he no longer feared Bi Chen.
“How dare you raise your hand against this seat, Ji Lin!” Bi Chen snorted at Ji Lin and raised a singular claw, probing the air. A massive flaming draconic claw came for Ji Lin.
However, the other was unafraid. He shook his spear and flung the claw away. The fiery sea surged at the same time and countless flames gathered in his direction.
“Oh?” Bi Chen frowned. Ji Lin’s command over fire rivaled his!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Blazing waves reared in the fiery sea. Flaming vortexes surrounded both Bi Chen and Ji Lin. All of the flames within a half dozen kilometers were gathered on them. The terrifying ripples flung Xia Houwan and the others out. Their true origin was in disarray and they didn’t dare linger; they ran for their lives.
As precious as the Void Sacred Flame was, one needed to be alive to enjoy it.
Bi Chen ignored the scurrying Xia Houwan and others. Someone like the marquis’ grandson could be killed at any time. He didn’t think much of Marquis Skyrule either. Given enough time, even the marquis was but a reptile to a dragon.
His priority at the moment was the Void Sacred Flame.
Bi Chen and Ji Lin were like two walking pillars of flame as they continuously crashed into each other. Horrific waves of heat lashed out through the area, prompting the other cultivators to flee for their lives. They didn’t dare remain for a second longer.
……
“Who would’ve thought that Bi Chen wouldn’t be able to stay out of it.” Lu Yun stood in the air beyond the fiery sea. The sea seemed to have formed its own space as his battle with Yan Beifei hadn’t affected it. The cultivators inside hadn’t even noticed anything taking place outside.
Lu Yun had discovered the concealed Bi Chen early on, but he hadn’t expected that the monster spirit would fully activate his chi-dragon bloodline. With that step complete, Bi Chen was now evolving in the direction of the chi-dragon divine beast and had received its heritage memories.
Divine beasts with access to the memories of their heritage were a walking trove of knowledge. But Bi Chen wasn’t a true chi-dragon, so he didn’t receive many memories. Otherwise, he would’ve already executed Ji Lin.

“That bastard Yan Beifei’s going to laugh at me after this!” Xia Houwan cursed after he escaped from the sea of flames. “Eh? Where’s that little bastard?”
He scanned the premises, but saw no sign of Yan Beifei. The sea behind him flared at this moment and Xia Houwan shuddered, hastily operating his true origin to activate his immortal armor and block the wave. At the same time, he retrieved a handful of pills and medicines from his storage ring and stuffed all of them into his mouth.
“This Xia Houwan is quite a character—he’s a bit like the former me.” Lu Yun saw hints of his prodigal self in the Great Xia cultivator.
“Oi, you floating in the air. Have you seen an over-the-top guy strutting around in purple robes?”
There were no other cultivators around given the flames howling through the void. Lu Yun particularly stood out as he hovered in the air.
“An over-the-top guy strutting around in purple robes?” Lu Yun blinked, then thought of Yan Beifei’s previous appearance and chuckled. “I did! His mom missed him, so he went home for dinner.”
“What?” Xia Houwan blinked and subconsciously looked around. “Yan Beifei’s mom? Are you kidding me?”
Lu Yun spread his hands out and ignored the man. The fiery sea chose to explode at this time, making way for two beasts.
“Heavens above!” Xia Houwan yelped and ran off.
“It looks like your mom misses you too,” Lu Yun chortled as he watched the man leave. Immortals Forbidden flashed in his hand.
A jade-green dragon three hundred meters long with crimson motes sparkling between its scales snaked through the air. It gripped a stick one meter wide and thirty meters long in its hand, waving it with abandon. Blurry afterimages filled the air, forming a massive formation that confined the beast in front of him.
His opponent was one hundred and fifty meters tall with scarlet scales throughout. Its head was like a horse, eyes like a lion’s, body like a deer, and back like a tiger’s. Cow hooves held it up and a dragon tail flicked behind it. It burned with flames—the divine fire qilin.
However, its form wasn’t very precise—it seemed to be a shadow that’d yet to fully solidify. Standing on its head, Ji Lin wielded a spear that glittered with cold radiance and swept the stick shadows aside.
“Oh damn, Ji Lin’s obtained the inner core of a fire qilin and refined it into his own image of heaven and earth!” Lu Yun smacked his lips with amazement.
Fire qilin differed from dragons and phoenixes in that the latter could transform into monster spirits and cast off their beast form. The original form of qilins, however, was incredibly strong. They retained their original appearance even when they ascended to chaos immortal.
Of the divine beasts, the physical durability of the qilins was ranked the highest.
There were many avenues for cultivators to refine an image; most of them utilized treasures. Another way was to employ the inner core of a divine beast and activate its internal spirit. At the same time, it was a very dangerous process as backlash could hit the cultivator in a single moment of carelessness. Their mind would be erased and they’d become a spirit beast lacking sentience.
Ji Lin was extremely lucky to obtain the inner core and successfully refine it. Having a qilin as his personal image meant that his road ahead was bright with limitless possibilities.
Two divine beasts continuously clashed against each other in the air and raised waves of fire. While Ji Lin possessed a powerful image, Bi Chen had fully activated his divine beast bloodline, so that still made him stronger than his opponent.
Despite his superior strength, it wasn’t easy for him to take down Ji Lin.
“Two idiots having it out.” Lu Yun couldn’t be bothered with the two brawling in the air. He shifted into multiple afterimages, evading the heat waves to arrive in front of the Void Sacred Flame.
It was the size of a palm and red throughout, emanating a shocking temperature. A ninth rank lotus flower formed from flames rested beneath it. One meter across, it was the Undying Immortal King’s personal treasure—Luminous Lotus Throne.
“This Void Sacred Flame should be his primary body… What a pity that the strongest immortal king of the world of immortals would die here.” Lu Yun sighed and was about to collect the flame and treasure when he suddenly sensed two heat waves come for him. He subconsciously dodged twice and evaded two attacks by the skin of his teeth.
“I wondered who would be so bold as to try to steal treasure out from beneath our nose! So it’s you!!” Bi Chen nearly spat fire from his eyes to see Lu Yun. The crimson dots of light over his body intensified and he twisted in the young man’s direction.
He hated Lu Yun the most—the human bastard had swallowed one hundred thousand Barren Mountain monster spirits with a single formation! He’d even scared off Bi Chen!
Ji Lin was likewise livid as he had made up his mind to obtain the Void Sacred Flame. How dare a mere soul separation cultivator try to take advantage of the chaos!
Thus, the two divine beasts reached an unspoken accord to eliminate Lu Yun first.
