Chapter 604
by fanqienovelChapter 604: Using Fire Spells
"This is what you forced me to do!"
Seeing the massive net of intertwined branches and leaves closing in on him, Yi Chen roared in anger.
His voice surprised Daniel and the audience in the stands.
Could it be that this guy had other trump cards besides extraordinary pills?
They were right.
After his furious shout, Yi Chen took out a spirit pill from his storage ring, one he had previously refined and no longer needed.
He popped it directly into his mouth.
Immediately, the branches that formed his arms began to wave rapidly.
A shocking scene unfolded before everyone’s eyes.
A sea of fire that covered an area of over ten square kilometers surged toward the dense net of branches and leaves.
"It’s the power of the fire laws… Oh my goodness! He defeated the Flame Tribe fighter with the power of the water laws last time, but how could he possibly wield the power of the fire laws?"
"Yes! While our Tree-Dwelling Tribe has poor talent for various common law powers, among tens of thousands, we can find one or two who are gifted in the water laws, ice laws, and other areas."
"But for someone to have talent in the fire laws… that must be a one in a billion occurrence!"
"No wonder, no wonder he dared to challenge the level 152 Daniel to a life-and-death battle! It turns out he possesses extremely high talent not only in the water laws but also in the fire laws!"
"We’re done for! With the extraordinary pills boosting his attributes, he might even be stronger than Daniel. And now, with the power of the fire laws, why does his chance of winning suddenly look greater?"
"Don’t panic, don’t panic! Although he’s a rare talent from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe who has mastered the fire laws, his fire power isn’t particularly strong."
"It may not be strong at first, but clearly it’s strengthening."
"That spirit pill he just consumed must be enhancing his fire laws…"
In the stands, all the spectators stood in shock.
Nobody expected that even when Yi Chen seemed to be in a desperate situation, he still had cards to play.
And this trump card was the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s nemesis—the power of the fire laws.
The sea of fire, while not very powerful and far weaker than the Flame Tribe fighter’s fire power, forced Daniel’s net of branches to continuously retreat.
What sank Daniel into despair, and shocked the audience even more, was that the sea of fire Yi Chen unleashed was visibly strengthening.
Though initially, the sea of fire could push the net back, it couldn’t truly destroy it.
However, as time passed, under the assault of the sea of fire, the net of branches began to catch fire.
Clearly, the power of the sea of fire was increasing.
Indeed, the power of the sea of fire was rising.
But the boost in power did not come from the spirit pill Yi Chen consumed earlier.
That spirit pill was merely a disguise.
The real reason was that Yi Chen initially only used one percent of his spell attack power.
Then, he gradually increased it until he stopped at two percent.
Two percent of spell attack power isn’t very strong, especially for a large-scale attack like the sea of fire.
But the power of the fire laws is the greatest nemesis of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.
Even though it was a wide-area attack, it was still enough to easily destroy Daniel’s net of branches and leaves.
It even forced Daniel to retract the net, dodging the sea of fire’s attack while pulling out a large black stone from the Space Stone.
A branch pierced into the black stone.
In an instant, an energy shield appeared around Daniel.
The audience in the stands sighed in relief.
This guy named Clay possessed extraordinary pills and was skilled in both water and fire laws, making him incredibly miraculous.
But Daniel didn’t seem to be lacking either.
He had various treasures appearing one after another.
The black stone he held clearly was a treasure with decent defense strength.
However, the twelve powerful beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe who had heavily bet on Daniel did not relax even with the energy shield surrounding him.
Their expressions remained serious.
The reason was clear—they knew exactly what treasures Daniel possessed.
The items Daniel had previously brought out were all provided by them.
They understood that Daniel could only use these treasures to delay his defeat.
To win, Yi Chen’s pills needed to fail.
That possibility existed, but it depended on luck and had a low success rate.
At this moment, the twelve powerful beings felt some regret.
If they could choose again now, they would never place such heavy bets on Daniel.
Even though Daniel still had a chance to win, the odds were only about three percent.
On the other hand, if he lost, they would suffer heavy losses.
Not only would they lose their bets, but the treasures they lent to Daniel would also be seized by Yi Chen as spoils of war.
These treasures were all powerful items suitable for level 150 beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, with the Bird Crown being especially valuable, highly regarded by the strong.
Soon, the audience realized they had been overly optimistic.
While Yi Chen’s sea of fire couldn’t temporarily break through the energy shield of the black stone, it was clearly depleting the shield’s energy rapidly.
Moreover, Yi Chen’s speed surpassed Daniel’s, leaving him unable to dodge or delay time due to the small space of the platform.
He remained in a passive position.
As the energy shield’s energy approached breaking point, Daniel gritted his teeth.
From the Space Stone, a small tree, five meters tall and covered in dense pine needles, instantly appeared.
As energy poured into it, the small tree suddenly took off, escaping the energy shield.
Next, countless pine needles shot out in all directions like endless starlight.
They densely covered the entire platform with no blind spots.
Even Daniel found himself within the coverage area of these pine needles.
Squeak…
The Little Gold Ball in Yi Chen’s flying treasure squeaked, wanting to rush out and compete with the small tree.
Because this small tree-like treasure’s method of attack was very similar to its own.
Unfortunately, it was grabbed by Bai Ruo Xin.
Buzz…
Countless pine needles were engulfed by the sea of fire; although powerful, they were also restrained by the power of the fire laws.
Upon contact with the sea of fire, they burned away before even reaching halfway.
The dense pine needles posed no threat to Yi Chen at all.
On the other hand, Daniel, who was also under attack from the pine needles, saw his already weakening energy shield collapse instantly due to the combined depletion from the pine needles and the sea of fire.
Daniel could barely dodge the sea of fire’s attack but couldn’t escape the barrage of pine needles.
The endless stream of pine needles hammered against his energy shield, quickly weakening it.
For half a minute, the pine needles from the small tree were continuously used up.
As a result, Yi Chen remained unaffected, while Daniel not only exhausted the energy of the black stone but also had more than half of his own defensive shield depleted by the pine needles.
