Chapter 2577 - 2578: Duel Challenge

A more formidable power is surging from the depths of the Qi Realm; Feng Yuan can sense that this force originates from the deepest layer of the Qi Realm, and it differs from what he has felt before.

Blood-red vines appear out of nowhere, materializing from thin air in various corners of the city, and they continuously entangle the buildings they come into contact with. Unlike before, when objects were dragged into the Qi Realm, this change is beyond everyone’s expectations.

"It’s strange; this doesn’t seem to be a natural reaction. It feels as if someone is controlling it behind the scenes."

Rushing outside, looking at the city gradually covered by blood-red vines, Feng Yuan said with some confusion. He sensed that these vines weren’t causing destruction; rather, they seemed to be protecting the buildings. But why?

Compared to Feng Yuan, the officials of Qi Hua City appeared more panicked, as they couldn’t discern the purpose of these blood-red vines. Their sudden appearance gave them a false signal that a stronger counterattack had suddenly arrived.

Qi Chen and his team quickly regrouped with Feng Yuan, looking at the city covered by blood-red vines in such a short time. Dou Yanlan opened her mouth, puzzled, wanting to speak, yet Qi Chen and War Qi Chen simultaneously prepared for combat.

"A contest? Although I don’t know if I can shake you, and I don’t even know who you are, I accept this challenge!"

War Qi Chen said coldly, releasing his Spirit Beasts while swiftly entering battle mode, deploying his Domain Battlefield without caring about others’ reactions.

In the city’s shadow on the sky, a blood-red figure flashed by, and a dark red serpent-like Spirit Beast suddenly appeared. It had scales with an oily luster, resembling a dragon, yet it had fish fins where claws should be, a single horn on its head, with deep purple arcs flashing over it.

Just as Feng Yuan thought the creature was about to charge down, the bizarre serpent-like Spirit Beast suddenly turned mid-air, flying back into the city’s sky reflection.

In the next moment, Spirit Beasts descended from the sky. Qi Chen slightly squinted at the giant tree Spirit Beast and said to Feng Yuan,

"Feng Yuan, could Tamur lend me the power of Mythical Transformation?"

"Are you planning to confront them? Although Mythical Transformation can temporarily grant you certain powers, such matters should be left to us."

Glancing at Qi Chen and War Qi Chen, Feng Yuan couldn’t quite understand what they were thinking. Shaking his head at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen looked at the sky and said,

"No, this is her challenge to us. If others intervene, I’m afraid..."

Sweeping his gaze over the buildings covered by blood-red vines, everyone instantly fell silent. Although Qi Chen didn’t say it directly, everyone understood that the people inside those buildings are the best hostages for the adversary.

Though Feng Yuan and his group aren’t from this timeline, they have no reason to offend the Qi Realm Countries because of this.

"Why were you targeted? Could she have appeared?"

With a puzzled look at Qi Chen and his team, Feng Yuan couldn’t comprehend the current situation. If it was Qi Realm Dou Yanlan’s Soul Projection, this commotion was a bit too excessive, at least compared to the Soul Projections they had encountered before, which didn’t have the authority to mobilize Qi Realm energy to this extent.

"I don’t know, maybe it’s her, but I don’t understand why she wants to battle us."

Qi Chen said, puzzled. He indeed heard the opponent say so, but doesn’t understand the reason. War Qi Chen slightly squinted his eyes and said,

"No matter what she’s thinking, we just need to respond!"

"Alright, Mythical Transformation shouldn’t affect things, right?"

Seeing the two say this, Feng Yuan responded somewhat helplessly, looking at Tamur. He didn’t refuse, and now the only concern is whether she allows this to happen.

After a moment of silence, Qi Chen said,

"I think it should be fine."

"Whatever, if anything unexpected occurs, we’ll take action."

After exchanging a look with Veronia, Feng Yuan decided to let Qi Chen and War Qi Chen fight. Beside him, Xiao Ji was somewhat dissatisfied but knew it wasn’t the time for stubbornness.

Tamur endowed Mythical Transformation to Qi Chen and War Qi Chen’s Spirit Beasts. War Qi Chen glanced at the opponent’s Spirit Beast and said,

"If I’m not mistaken, that should be the Spirit Beast used by the version of us from this world. It’s just unclear which is stronger."

Although they possessed Mythical Transformation, the opponent wasn’t at their base level either. Merely by seeing the light purple mist swirling around the Spirit Beast showed that clearly.

"Regardless, a battle will reveal the truth."

Qi Chen and War Qi Chen exchanged glances, quickly creating distance. It’s unavoidable; both have to deploy Domain Battles, so naturally, they won’t stand together. Moreover, their teams already have a certain level of coordination, especially War Qi Chen. With his abilities, his Spirit Beast team can already work together in action.

As the Domain Battlefield unfolded, Qi Chen didn’t rush to use Mythical Transformation. War Qi Chen made the first move to engage the Spirit Beast of the Qi Chen from this world. Just as Feng Yuan was preparing to remind them, Qi Chen suddenly shouted,

"Ah Mu, turn around, Seistal Stele Forest!"

The moment he received the command, Ah Mu immediately unleashed the Seistal Stele. Feng Yuan somewhat suspected the opponent had long prepared this ultimate move, waiting just to deploy it.

The emerald green Seistal Stele appeared out of nowhere, crashing into the attacking white lion that faintly resembled Xing Bo, yet unlike Xing Bo, this enormous white lion appeared ferocious, akin to a savage beast.

"Legendary Holy Flame Star Lion? Its appearance is enormously different. What’s happening? Qi Realm Dou Yanlan shouldn’t possess Legendary Spirit Beasts, right?"

While curiously observing the white lion struck out of its Star Realm walking state, Feng Yuan pondered aloud, Seistal Stele practically slapped directly onto the white lion’s face, emerging from its Star Realm walk.

Green storms erupted as trees rooted into the void grew parallel to the ground, hard-growing into towering trees that forcibly pushed the white lion back a considerable distance.

Seeing the peculiar-shaped white lion, Feng Yuan couldn’t help but ponder about different forms. This creature should be the Qi Realm variant form of Holy Flame Star Lion, only its focus has shifted from protection to this assassin-like combat style. Feng Yuan found it somewhat wondrous.

"Detonate!"

Looking at the trees growing horizontally, Qi Chen clenched his fist and shouted. Hao Chun Bird perched atop Ah Mu’s canopy, poised to blast. As Ah Mu detonated Seistal Stele’s power, the trees composing the forest climbed with glowing runes, making them highly unstable.

Before the white lion initiated Star Realm walking, the forest burst from within, energy impacts interrupting the white lion’s Star Realm walk. The next moment, flying debris bombarded the white lion.

Without using Mythical Transformation, even with close-contact attacks, Ah Mu’s attack merely scratched the white lion’s itch.

"That’s not sufficient without Mythical Transformation. Against a Legendary Spirit Beast, we can’t do much."

Feng Yuan commented, it’s not as if everyone’s Xiao Ji, or rather, Xiao Ji’s ability to challenge Legendary Spirit Beast with Good Level strength relied not solely on power but the positional status of Divine Beasts.

Ah Mu does not possess such a stature, even if transformed by Nainefar’s power. That’s still not the power of rules, incapable of overcoming such a significant level difference to deliver massive damage.

Of course, Nainefar’s power did elevate Ah Mu’s strength to break level barriers, but even when a break occurs at Good Level, it’s merely one level higher, no way to defeat a Legendary white lion.

"I don’t know whether it’s me from this world, but I want to fight alongside him!"

Suddenly Dou Yanlan shouted towards the sky, preventing Feng Yuan from speaking. Determinedly she looked at him and said,

"She agreed, so it’s indeed another me from this world; please, I need your help."

With the power of Mythical Transformation applied to Dou Yanlan’s Spirit Beast, she glanced at that white lion and said,

"Explicitly leaving Ah Chen’s Mythical Transformation for upcoming adversaries, so this Legendary opponent will be weakened by me!"

"Cotton! Gate of Netherworld Mythical Transformation!"

Dou Yanlan’s command puzzled not only Qi Chen but also Feng Yuan, curious as to why Dou Yanlan did not choose to mythically transform the ultimate move Gate of Netherworld.

It’s essential to know this ultimate’s effect is simply to open a doorway to the Netherworld. Unlike Nether Cross, this ultimate doesn’t impose any forced restrictions, let alone cause harm or other effects.

Furthermore, it’s impossible to open the Gate of Netherworld to summon an army of the deceased, even though it’s a Death Series ultimate move, it lacks such capabilities, let alone first finding Divine Beasts in the Netherworld.

Yet, seeing Dou Yanlan’s confident demeanor, Feng Yuan wondered if the Gate of Netherworld could have unknown uses.
