Chapter 400 - Shock

The moment the Divine Enchantment formed, An Gucheng became imprisoned inside Ye Xuan’s trap.

The Divine Enchantment was incredibly resilient and difficult to breakthrough.

It was a prison forged out of pure Space Energy.

In addition to the Big Dream Golden’s Rock’s high challenger-level cultivation, the threefold attribute boost made any spiritual techniques it cast three times more potent.

This made the Divine Enchantment a terrifying ability to deal with.

At the same time, the Big Dream Golden Rock transformed into the Tree of World. It swung its numerous branches like an iron whip, with each lash piercing through the air and shattering the void.

In an instant, the Divine Inferno Chains cast by An Gucheng’s Three-headed Divine Flame Bird were broken by the Big Dream Golden Rock’s relentless whip lashes.

They disintegrated into beams of fire spiritual energy.

An Gucheng’s Three-headed Divine Flame Bird was by no means weak. It was a legendary-level beast.

But the Big Dream Golden Rock’s transformed version of the Tree of World could maintain high challenger-level power within three seconds.

With the Aiding Seed on top of that, it could increase all of its attributes by three folds for three minutes.

Adding to all that its ability to wield space energy and its massive vitality, it could stand toe to toe with legendary-level beasts for a short amount of time.

“You!”

Inside the celadon-coloured, transparent prison of the Divine Enchantment, An Gucheng was as furious as he was incredulous that Ye Xuan not only repelled his lethal attack effortlessly but also trapped him in some strange form of imprisonment.

“I discovered you a long time ago. You did not find me here. I was merely waiting for you.”

Ye Xuan saw the disbelief in An Gucheng’s eyes and let out a dry laugh.

A bright light erupted from the Void Shift Formation underneath them. Moments later, multiple figures emerged from the light.

All of their aura were challenger-level.

While Ye Xuan was dealing with An Gucheng, the Seal Beast was busy making preparations.

When Ye Xuan felt the time was right, he gave the signal for it to activate the Void Shift Formation and teleport all the controlled beast tamers back.

“This can’t be…”

Trapped inside the Divine Enchantment, An Gucheng suddenly felt multiple challenger-level aura appear around him. His heart sank a beat as he realized he had been set up.

He had been set up by Ye Xuan.

What he could not fathom was how on earth Ye Xuan had managed to set the trap.

What was more incredulous to him was how Ye Xuan gathered such a force of challenger-level beast tamers under his command.

Especially when he saw that there were beast tamers from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets among the ranks of several dozen challenger-level beast tamers facing him.

There were even challenger-level beast tamers from his very own Sacred Fire Race.

“Rumble!”

Without a single sparing word, the challenger-level beast tamers summoned all of their beasts against An Gucheng the moment they stepped out of the Void Shift Formation.

Even the one Sacred Fire Race challenger did the same.

He looked towards the direction of the Divine Enchantment imprisoning An Gucheng with a struggling expression on his face, but his summoning action did not hesitate.

After he had summoned his two challenger-level beasts, he rushed forth with the other beast tamers who commanded their beasts to attack the ensnared An Gucheng.

“Ye Xuan!”

Inside the Divine Enchantment, An Gucheng summoned his two legendary-level beasts.

Of his two legendary level beasts, one was the Three-headed Divine Flame Bird he used as a mount earlier.

The other one was a golden beetle reaching fifty meters in length.

On its backside were numerous spikes reaching a meter in height. At the front of its head were two sharp, golden horns about seven or eight meters long.

The connective tissues of its six appendages were protected by sharp spikes.

As soon as it appeared, it joined forces with the Three-headed Divine Flame Bird to launch consecutive attacks against the Divine Enchantment.

However, the Big Dream Golden Rock’s Divine Enchantment was not so easily broken.

Maybe if they had two or three seconds of time, no, even two seconds of time, they would have shattered the Divine Enchantment.

But the whole process from when the Seal Beast summoned forth the forty or so challenger-level beast tamers to when the beast tamers summoned their beasts and attacked An Gucheng all took place in just under a second.

It all happened in an incredibly brief amount of time.

Such was the speed of the Seal Beast’s Void Shift Teleportation.

Such was the speed of the challenger-level beast tamers’ attacks.

Rumble!

The collective attacks from the challenger-level beasts were so dense they blocked out the sun in the sky. They carried an incredibly destructive force as they cascaded towards An Gucheng inside the Divine Enchantment.

The attacks seemed like it was going to swallow An Gucheng whole.

Boom!

The Divine Enchantment broke.

However, it was not An Gucheng’s doing.

When Ye Xuan saw that the Seal Beast had unleashed all the challenger-level beast tamers to attack An Gucheng, he commanded the Big Dream Golden Rock transformed Tree of World to unlock the Divine Enchantment.

Rumble

As the Divine Enchantment’s barrier dispersed, the collective attacks from the challenger-level beasts, whether it be piercing crescent slashes, fiery bursts of flame, sub-zero shards of ice, or oozing blobs of darkness, all fell from the sky like divine judgement passed by god unto the unjust.

They completely overwhelmed the area surrounding An Gucheng before he could make his escape.

“Roar!”

A terrifying roar echoed through the plains. Then, numerous beams of bright, golden lights shot up from where An Gucheng stood before the challenger-level beast tamers’ bombardment.

While the debris from the attack was still settling, the Three-headed Divine Flame Bird grabbed the wounded An Gucheng in one claw and darted off to the sky. Its once magnificent feathers were bathed in blood, and one of its wings was crooked at an unnatural angle.

An Gucheng’s other legendary-level beast, the Golden Beetle, was nowhere to be found.

All that remained of it were the shrapnels of its golden shell blown up from the explosion. They fell slowly to the earth like flakes of golden snow.

From the looks of it, it seemed that An Gucheng’s legendary-level Golden Beetle got blown up from the collective attacks from the forty challenger-level beast tamers.

At the same time, An Gucheng and his Three-headed Divine Flame Bird also sustained serious injuries.

An Gucheng no longer had that air of superiority and arrogance to him as he first had when he saw Ye Xuan. He no longer felt that the outcome of this battle was in his hands.

“Stop him from escaping!”

When the debris finally settled, Ye Xuan saw that An Gucheng making his escape. He commanded the Big Dream Golden Rock Clone transformed Tree of World to space travel. In an instant, Ye Xuan and the Tree of World reappeared before the escaping An Gucheng.

The Big Dream Golden Rock Clone’s power was beginning to regress.

It had fallen from the high challenger-level and was three seconds to mid challenger-level now.

Despite the regression, its power level was still not to be taken lightly under the effects of the Aiding Seed’s three-fold attribute boost.

“Ye Xuan!”

The escaping An Gucheng’s eyes widened in shock as Ye Xuan suddenly disappeared from his place and reappeared before him.

His speed was fast, but compared to Ye Xuan’s space travel, he was no match.

“You really think you have it in the bag?”

An Gucheng shouted angrily.

His eyes were locked dead onto Ye Xuan. There was no concealment of his murderous intention.

With only one of its wings working properly, the Three-headed Divine Flame Bird struggled to stay afloat in the air. Drips of divine blood fell from its devastating wounds onto the earth. The fiery liquid set the plains below ablaze. Trees, grass and plants acted as fuel to the fire. Everything was engulfed in an undying flame. Everywhere.

Where the cinders sparked, a torrent followed. The flame torrents combined and gathered into the form of a ferocious fire dragon that lunged towards Ye Xuan in the sky.

At the same time, the Three-headed Divine Flame Bird flapped its good wing and re-summoned its Flame Field around Ye Xuan.

In an instant, the momentum of battle seemed to shift once again as Ye Xuan faced grave pressure from all sides.

However, as the Three-headed Divine Flame Bird launched its attack, An Gucheng grimaced.

He did not wish to face Ye Xuan head-on with his current state.

The injuries he and his Three-headed Divine Flame Bird sustained needed immediate attention, but Ye Xuan stood between him and the exit to this ancient ruin.

If he wanted to escape from here, he had to break through Ye Xuan’s blockade.

And even if he could manage to temporarily breakthrough, Ye Xuan could use his space travel ability to instantly recover the lost ground.

Therefore, if he wanted to leave here alive, the only way was to defeat Ye Xuan.

Three-headed Flame Dragon Bird: One Star

Level: Low Legendary-level

Abilities: Dragon Bird Aspect, Nine Fold Heavenly Flame, Blood Flame Spell, Three Headed Screech, Flame Field

Status: Heavily Injured

As Ye Xuan saw An Gucheng charge towards him, he quickly performed an analysis on An Gucheng’s Three-Headed Flame Dragon Bird.

This Three-headed Flame Dragon Bird’s attributes were just ordinary.

What made it very powerful was purely its level.

Any legendary-level life form could become a legendary totem to civilizations on most planets.

If this Three-headed Flame Dragon Bird did not encounter any devastating catastrophes, it would live on for tens of thousands of years and become an incredible being.

Under most circumstances, Ye Xuan would avoid provoking the fury of such a powerful being.

Even though the consequences were never fatal, he nevertheless would have had to suffer a lot to take down such a beast.

But now, the Three-headed Flame Dragon Bird was gravely injured.

Plus, he had used the Gates of Evolution and the Aiding Seed. He did not have to fear the Three-Headed Flame Dragon Bird at this moment.

“Shoo..shoo…shoo!”

Numerous tree branches weaved across the sky and formed a huge net. Then, the Big Dream Golden Rock transformed Tree of World wielded brought net downwards towards the Three-headed Flame Dragon Bird.
