Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

Page 31

This little creature is an extremely rare beast. Although it is not very strong, it has a pair of discerning eyes that can see through all illusions...

If we can get this little thing, then this so-called Misty Mountain is not worth mentioning at all!

Thinking of this, Ye Chen quickly gestured to Hu Tian, ​​"Quick! Grab it!"

Chapter Sixty-Six: Separation

Discovering the true nature of the white fox before him filled Ye Chen with excitement.

He was originally thinking about how to break through the fog and get deeper into the area, but he didn't expect that a solution would be delivered to him so soon after he entered.

In his excitement, Ye Chen didn't hesitate at all. He lightly touched the ground with his toes and flew away like a bolt of lightning...

This shows the effect of the 50-point speed bonus provided by the Star Chart.

Although Ye Chen was only at the level of a six-star Dou Ling at this time, the speed he could unleash was comparable to that of a Dou Wang powerhouse of the same star level!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen had covered a distance of dozens of meters.

Meanwhile, the spirit fox, who had been dazed by the aftershocks of Hu Tian's palm strike, had recovered and then saw a figure suddenly reaching out an evil hand towards it...

"Meow~?!" A pair of bright, large eyes revealed a very human-like look of horror. Then, with a leap, its huge white tail swaying behind it, it rushed into the mist at lightning speed.

"Huh? So fast?" Ye Chen was also very surprised.

It should be noted that although this psychic white fox is magical, its own strength is not strong. The only thing it can boast about is its speed in escaping.

Although Ye Chen knew about this thing, he had never seen it before, so even though he was prepared, he still underestimated it.

Chase!

Without any hesitation, Ye Chen chased after him.

Because of the dense fog, Ye Chen used his soul power to lock onto the little thing and then unleashed his full strength to chase after it.

Little did he know that the moment he captured the spirit fox, the thick fog that Hu Tian had thinned with his palm strike had already returned to normal...

The visibility range of this thick fog is only five meters, and his actions just now had already exceeded that distance. By the time Hu Tian realized what was happening, he found that his young master had already disappeared from his sight.

"Son!"

Hu Tian, ​​terrified, shouted loudly, but his violent sound waves were rapidly weakened by the thick fog, and he was completely silenced before he could even travel fifty meters...

This made Hu Tian even more panicked.

Although his strength was much higher than Ye Chen's, in terms of soul power alone, he, a one-star Dou Zong, was not necessarily able to compare with the latter. So even though he tried his best to spread his spiritual sense to search for his young master's figure, he could only find nothing in the end.

This is really a big problem!

Completely panicked, Hu Tian could only rely on the direction Ye Chen had just rushed out and unleash his full speed to chase after him.

Unfortunately, in this thick fog, visibility was severely impaired, making it impossible to distinguish even the cardinal directions. Although the directions seemed the same, even the slightest difference could result in a vast difference in distance due to their speed...

As for Ye Chen at this moment, he had been chasing the spirit-possessed white fox for an unknown amount of time and distance, but when the white fox clearly appeared in his field of vision dozens of meters ahead of him, he finally realized something was wrong...

"Huh? The thick fog has dissipated?"

Could it be that I've already escaped the fog area?

Just as a look of joy flashed across Ye Chen's face, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Old Hu..."

Looking back, Hu Tian was nowhere to be seen.

"Have we gotten separated...?" Ye Chen's expression turned slightly serious.

However, this is not a big problem.

After all, according to Song Lian, there seemed to be no danger in the thick fog, and even if they got lost, they were only trapped for a little over a month before miraculously walking out on their own.

According to their initial guess, the main purpose of the fog was to prevent people from entering the depths of the fog, rather than trapping them to death. That's why Ye Chen decided to go in and explore.

Since there was no immediate danger to his life, Ye Chen wasn't too worried. Since they had already been separated, the main thing now was to catch this spirit-connected white fox and then use it to find Hu Tian.

Having thought of so much in an instant, Ye Chen no longer hesitated and immediately increased his speed, rushing towards the little fox who was already at her last gasp...

After such a long escape, the psychic white fox was clearly exhausted.

Seeing Ye Chen approaching, knowing there was no hope of escape, it could only curl up into a ball, its bushy tail covering its entire body, and tremble as it awaited the demon's arrival...

Upon getting closer, Ye Chen found it somewhat amusing to see the little thing suddenly striking such a pose.

"It seems this little thing has given up resisting."

I simply reached out and lifted the little guy up by the scruff of his neck, even though his eyes were closed.

"Mimi~"

The soft cries reached Ye Chen's ears, making him feel a pang of pity.

"No wonder everyone calls you a vixen, you little thing, you sure know how to play the victim..."

Faced with such an adorable creature, how many people could bring themselves to harm it?

"Alright, little thing, stop playing the victim. I won't do anything to you. As long as you behave from now on, I'll make sure you live a life of luxury and never have to worry about being bullied by other magical beasts!"

Whether or not it understood Ye Chen's words, the timid white fox slightly opened its eyes and glanced at the man holding it in his hand...

Hmm, he looks quite handsome, not like one of those fierce and menacing bad guys.

"Meow?" After hesitating for a moment, the psychic white fox made a sound that was clearly questioning.

Of course, Ye Chen didn't understand fox language, nor did he know what the little guy's cries meant, but based on his guess, he said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't lie to you, I'll always keep my word!"

Although the spirit fox wasn't of a high level, its intelligence was clearly very high. It seemed to understand the meaning behind Ye Chen's words, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded firmly...

"Huh, you agree?" Ye Chen asked in surprise, then laughed, "Is your intelligence that high? That's good, it'll make communication easier in the future..."

Once this white fox is subdued, won't I be able to come and go freely in the mountain mist?

Just as Ye Chen was about to have the spirit fox lead him into the mist to find Hu Tian, ​​a sudden beastly roar startled both of them.

"Roar~~!"

The sound came from very close by, as if it were right next to me.

Ye Chen was greatly alarmed and exclaimed, "A demonic beast?!"

"Mimi~!!!"

At the same time, the psychic white fox looked to Ye Chen's side, and its urgent cries came continuously.

Ye Chen turned his head, and even in the thick fog, he could still see a huge figure breaking through the fog and rushing towards him.

Chapter Sixty-Seven Strange Giant Beasts

Seeing the massive figure rushing towards them from the thick fog, Ye Chen knew that the other party had obviously spotted them.

"We can't fight this thing in this thick fog!"

In just a moment, Ye Chen made a decision.

It's obvious that the unknown thing lives in this thick fog, and confronting it here would be clearly disadvantageous.

Without any hesitation, Ye Chen stuffed the little fox he was carrying into his chest, leaving only its head sticking out, and said quickly, "Little guy, quickly take me away from this thick fog!"

The psychic white fox clearly knew the situation was urgent. It looked around with its little head, then cried out in front of it, "Mimi mimi!"

"Straight ahead? Excellent, let's go!"

With a burst of fighting spirit beneath his feet, Ye Chen transformed into lightning, swiftly traversing the thick fog.

The unknown behemoth behind them clearly had no intention of giving up the pursuit, and roared as it chased after Ye Chen.

After speeding for several kilometers, the area around Ye Chen suddenly opened up...

The thick fog around him completely disappeared, and what appeared before him was a very wide valley with a river and lush weeds, a veritable paradise.

Of course, Ye Chen didn't have time to appreciate any paradise right now, and instead turned to look into the thick fog.

There, a gigantic monster was charging towards them, its movements causing the ground to tremble, demonstrating just how enormous the monster was!

"Roar!!!"

After the monster burst out of the thick fog, Ye Chen realized that the one chasing him was actually a huge silver bear!

Upon seeing Ye Chen standing there, the giant bear's pupils were filled with rage and slaughter, sending chills down one's spine at a glance. It slammed its massive, sharp claws into the ground, reared up, and unleashed a deafening roar powerful enough to shatter boulders.

Amidst the roaring roar, Ye Chen's clothes fluttered wildly in the wind. The white fox, which had been peeking out, immediately burrowed its head into Ye Chen's chest, its small body curled up in a ball, trembling...

Seeing the giant beast that stood upright and was several meters tall, Ye Chen's eyes twitched involuntarily.

The only thing that made him feel slightly relieved was that although the aura emanating from the giant bear was powerful, it did not seem to exceed that of a fifth-tier magical beast, which meant that he was not without the power to fight!

However, bear-type magical beasts generally have strong defenses and terrifying physical attacks, while Ye Chen is an alchemist who is not good at close combat. Therefore, in the upcoming battle, he absolutely cannot engage this thing in close combat...

Seeing that Ye Chen was not running away, the giant bear became even angrier, slamming its forelegs heavily onto the ground, causing the entire valley to tremble.

The giant bear transformed into a tank, charging headlong into Ye Chen's position...

"He really lives up to his reputation as a big, clumsy bear!"

Feeling the earth trembling violently beneath his feet, Ye Chen dared not be careless in the slightest. He flashed away from his original spot, and in the brief moment of his departure, silver flames quickly gathered in his palms, forming two long fire snakes, which finally shot towards the giant bear like arrows released from a bow.

Ye Chen's attack was both accurate and ruthless. Moreover, the giant bear was too big and not very agile, so it was hit squarely by the fire snake!

"Roar!!!"

As the silver fire snakes approached, the giant bear let out a shrill roar, appearing to be in great pain...

This surprised Ye Chen.

"Huh? What's going on? How can such a giant beast have such poor defense? Is it just a show of bravado...?"

Ye Chen had dealt with these bear-like magical beasts before.

On their way here, Hu Tian and he had encountered many fourth-tier bear-type magical beasts. These creatures were all incredibly strong defensively, and even with all their abilities, they often struggled to seriously injure them.

Although the flames also caused great damage to these magical beasts, bears are naturally thick-skinned and can withstand their own starfire for a while, unlike this guy in front of them, who seemed about to be killed by just a probing attack.

but……

"Who cares! Since they're afraid of fire, let's just kill them first!"

"Star Trail Technique: Dragon Flame Song!"

Two enormous crimson fire dragons soared into the sky, then roared and charged directly at the silver giant bear.

boom!

The raging fire dragon crashed directly into the giant bear, the immense force sending it flying off its feet and crashing to the ground...

"Oh!"

Amidst the deafening roar, a large section of the solid ground caved in behind the silver giant bear. As the boulders shattered, cracks spread out from behind it like a spider web, eventually reaching almost to Ye Chen's feet.

"Roar!"

Enraged by this heavy blow, the silver bear's eyes rapidly turned crimson, and a ripple of silver energy condensed on its body, instantly extinguishing the high-temperature flames carried by the fire dragon...

"Huh? This big, clumsy bear has this kind of trick up its sleeve..." Ye Chen was surprised again.

Moreover, he seemed to discover that his two fire dragon attacks, which were clearly more powerful than his previous ones, did not do much damage to the giant bear and did not achieve the effect he wanted...

What's going on? Could it be that the dragon flames released by Long Yan Fang Ge are not his own sparks?

Thinking of this, Ye Chen, taking advantage of the giant bear's still-recovering state from the impact of the fire dragon, immediately conjured two more silver fire snakes and shot them towards the giant bear once more...

"Roar!!!"

Sure enough, the giant bear let out another painful roar.

Moreover, Ye Chen also saw clearly this time that when the Starfire Serpent he launched encountered the silver energy ripples around the giant bear, it passed through without any hindrance and shot into the giant bear's body, which caused such severe damage to it.

This discovery made Ye Chen's eyes light up...

Sure enough, the reason why the first attack was so effective was indeed because of his spark.

Moreover, after his previous observations, Ye Chen also discovered the special characteristics of this giant bear...

How to put it... it's as if this giant bear isn't actually made of flesh and blood, but rather seems to be entirely composed of energy, like a fire beast he conjured using beast fire to fight.

This discovery surprised Ye Chen, and his expression became somewhat uncertain...
