Chapter 397 - 395: Are These All Battle Bodies?
"It’s fake again."
With her purple hair, Chu Xin frowned slightly and turned to the Supreme Elder, saying, "Old bad guy, can you summon a real Demon Beast? They’re all fake and can’t be eaten."
"You’re still thinking about eating when you’re on the verge of death."
The Supreme Elder snorted coldly, manipulating his hands to conjure a spell, controlling the Flame Monarch to launch an attack.
A massive flaming hand descended, crushing down. Under the fluctuations of the Flame Rule Power, traces of spatial rule power also pulsed, sealing off the space.
"It seems quite powerful."
Chu Xin with purple hair blinked her round eyes and, turning to the Supreme Elder, waved her snow-white hand and said with a giggle, "Old bad guy, I don’t want to fight with it. I’m leaving, bye."
"Thinking of running now? It’s too late."
The Supreme Elder snorted coldly. "The attack of the Flame Monarch can lock space—no one can escape under his attack; they can only endure it. If they can’t withstand it, they turn to ashes. You can’t esca...!"
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Chu Xin’s figure vanish into thin air.
Boom!
The Flame Monarch’s giant hand smashed down, crushing a State Mansion building into pieces, and the intense flames turned its ruins into ashes, without leaving even debris.
Although the Fire Sea and the Divine Fire Array’s Flame Divine Dragon would not harm the buildings and people of the State Mansion, the Supreme Elder’s attack was not from the Divine Fire Array and would not distinguish between presences.
"How is this possible?"
The Supreme Elder ignored the building turned to ashes, as well as whether there were State Mansion disciples inside it. His face was filled with shock; he expanded his Emperor’s Thought, frantically searching inside and outside of the State Mansion.
But aside from those fifteen unruly children who kept dodging or resisting the Flame Divine Dragon and darting in and out of the major buildings in the State Mansion, he found no sign of the mischievous child with the phoenix mask, wearing a purple dress, with even her hair dyed purple.
"Has she really disappeared?"
The Supreme Elder was incredulous. The Flame Monarch’s attack could seal space, and this mischievous child hadn’t cultivated the power of spatial rules, so how could she have broken free from the lock and torn through the void to escape?
No, even if one tore through the void, he would still sense a trace of their presence within it. But now, he could not feel the mischievous child’s presence at all, as if she had vanished from this world entirely.
Moreover, the Guardian Formation of the State Mansion was a powerful Ancient Magic Array, no trifling matter for this mischievous child, and even a Peak Martial Emperor would find it difficult to break through.
Let alone silently breaking through the Guardian Formation—perhaps even a Martial God couldn’t manage that.
"Hmph! You sure ran fast."
Although the Supreme Elder couldn’t understand it and was not willing to accept it, he had no way to change it and simply waved his hand to dismiss the Flame Monarch. Maintaining the Flame Monarch severely drained his Flame Rule Power, and since the mischievous child was gone, there was naturally no need to continue sustaining it.
He turned around, preparing to hunt down the other mischievous children.
Those damned unruly children, while dodging the attacks of the Flame Divine Dragon, had not forgotten to enter important places like the State Mansion’s Treasure Pavilion to gather treasures, which was truly infuriating.
Just as he turned, a figure fell from the sky and in an instant appeared behind him.
"Hey! Old bad guy, are we not fighting anymore?"
Chu Xin asked cheerfully.
The Supreme Elder’s body trembled, and as he turned to look, his eyes widened with disbelief. "You’re still here? Impossible, I just searched the entire State Mansion and a thousand li around it, without finding you. Where have you been hiding?"
"Hehe, I’m really good at hide and seek. As long as I want to hide, even if my dad doesn’t cheat, he can’t find me," Chu Xin declared proudly.
In reality, this had nothing to do with hide and seek. Just now, her true body had taken her back, and once the Supreme Elder retracted his divine skills of the Flame Monarch, she came out from the Divine Coffin again.
"Hmph! This time, I will not let you escape again."
The Supreme Elder snorted coldly, as the power of the Flame Rules surged around his body, sweeping out and enveloping Chu Xin within it.
"Under my Divine Fire Domain, all your abilities will be suppressed. This time, I will see how you manage to escape."
His tone was icy, his eyes filled with tangible murderous intent.
The scorching flames blazed fiercely. Within this Divine Fire Domain, cultivators of weaker Cultivation would be directly burned to ashes by the Divine Fire.
Enveloped by a faint golden light that kept the Divine Fire at bay, Chu Xin murmured softly, "It is quite hot."
"Kind of hot?"
The Supreme Elder nearly lost his composure, "Is this not the Divine Fire Domain that makes countless cultivators lose heart in fear? And all it gets from this brat is a ’kind of hot’?"
"Fire Phoenix, Sky Burning!"
With his hands forming seals and a furious shout, Fire Phoenixes were born from the Divine Fire.
The clear and resonant cries of the phoenixes echoed through the domain, and then each Fire Phoenix spread its wings, carrying the scorching Divine Fire as they flew towards the purple-haired Chu Xin.
"Wow! So powerful."
The purple-haired Chu Xin clapped her small hands vigorously, her tone dramatically exaggerated.
"Hmph! Now you realize how powerful it is? But it’s too late, even if you kneel and beg for mercy now, I am going to burn you into ashes," the Supreme Elder said coldly.
"That’s so scary, I am really afraid."
Patting her little chest, the purple-haired Chu Xin then waved goodbye to the Supreme Elder with a giggling smile, "Bye-bye, you bad old man."
No sooner had her voice faded than her tiny figure vanished again.
Boom!
The Fire Phoenixes exploded within the Divine Fire Domain, causing the surrounding Divine Fire to shake violently.
"Gone again?"
The Supreme Elder was dumbfounded, his Emperor’s Thought once again deployed, searching frantically but still finding no trace.
"This is impossible."
Disbelief was written all over his face, he could not accept the outcome; nobody could silently escape in his Divine Fire Domain.
Unless...
Suddenly, his body shuddered, he widened his eyes in shock, and exclaimed, "Could it be that was just a Battle Body?"
Only a Battle Body could be directly taken back by the true body, and ignore all Arrays and Prohibitions.
However, throughout the entire Jiuzhou, aside from the Nine-colored Deer on Sea Deer Island of Canglei State Sea, there had been no news of anyone who had condensed a true Battle Body.
How could this brat, who appeared to be less than five years old, possibly condense a Battle Body?
Precisely because the condensation of a Battle Body was too difficult, he did not consider this at the outset.
"Wait a minute!"
The Supreme Elder seemed to have thought of something, his Emperor’s Thought sweeping across the State Mansion again, observing the fifteen brats.
"Dragon-masked brat, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, violet, white... Adding the true body’s black hair, exactly nine colors. Phoenix-masked brat, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, white, plus the vanished purple hair and the unseen true body, also precisely nine colors. Is this the Nine-colored Battle Body?"
His body suddenly shook as he instantly realized that these sixteen brats were all Battle Bodies.
"These two brats have actually mastered the Nine-colored Battle Body."
He ground his teeth, his heart filled with envy and jealousy, and an uncontrollable rage.
"Damn it!"
He cursed under his breath, no longer trying to attack these brats, but instead frantically using his Emperor’s Thought to sweep around, trying to locate the true bodies of those two brats.
If all these are Battle Bodies, they could be taken back by the true bodies at any time, even if he struck. Only by finding their true bodies and slaying them would it suffice.
Yet, no matter how he used his Emperor’s Thought to scan, he found no trace of them.
Even the strange Demon Beast that was previously swallowing his Flame Rule Power among the clouds had now vanished.
"Could it be their true bodies are not here?"
The Supreme Elder’s brow was tightly knitted, his eyes full of frustration.
What do you think?
