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

After a long while, Lin Yuheng, who had finally suppressed his anger, looked at the middle-aged powerhouse beside him with a fierce expression and spoke without turning his head.

"Yes!"

The same thing happened at the residences of the second son, Lin Yucheng, and the fourth son, Lin Yuting, and both of them also chose to seek help from the forces their fathers belonged to.

The conversation continued in Ye Chen's courtyard.

"Although it seems that you have the upper hand this time, Miss Lin, your three brothers are not easy to deal with. Moreover, they have considerable power behind them. A month is enough time to change a lot of things!"

"This..." Lin Yutong's initially excited expression gradually turned serious, and she nodded earnestly, agreeing with what Ye Chen said.

At the Douhuang level, a difference of two or three stars might seem like an insurmountable chasm to ordinary people, but for the major powers of the Dan Domain, there are many ways to bridge that gap!

"So what should we do next? With my current strength, it's unlikely that I can make another breakthrough within a month..." Lin Yutong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed as she said this.

Compared to the other three, the lack of a father's help was her biggest disadvantage!

Ye Chen didn't have a good solution either. He couldn't very well involve the Ye family, could he? He wasn't their father; he had neither the right nor the need to...

"We can only take it one step at a time. The most important thing is to pay attention to what the other three will do in the next month. If possible, we should cause them some trouble!" Ye Chen shook his head and said.

"That's all we can do!" Lin Yutong's beautiful face was filled with worry as she said helplessly.

Old Luo, who was standing nearby, frowned and pondered for a while, but he couldn't come up with a good solution either. After hearing Lin Yutong's words, he immediately said, "Leave this matter to me. I will keep a close eye on the other three. As long as they make any move, they will not be able to escape my notice!"

Ye Chen nodded and added, "Try to find out their next move as much as possible!"

"I see!"

After seeing off Lin Yutong and her servant, Ye Chen also had a serious expression.

Although this move was just a casual, impromptu one, if it succeeded, it would be beneficial to both himself and the Ye family, so it was best to avoid failure.

Five or six days passed like this.

During this time, Ye Chen stayed in his residence and worked hard to cultivate. He also refined some simple pills to increase his proficiency at the third-grade alchemist level, in preparation for his upcoming alchemist level assessment in Saint Pill City.

As for Lin Yutong and her servant, they tried their best to increase their own power and then weaken their opponents. During this time, they even asked Hu Tian to help them once.

It is clear that the struggle between the four has now truly reached a fever pitch...

Finally, on the seventh day of the month, Elder Luo, the powerful figure who was by Lin Yutong's side, came looking for her again in a hurry.

Chapter Thirty-Five: The One-Horned Fire Spirit Dragon

"They've made their move!"

Upon seeing Ye Chen, Elder Luo blurted out a sentence without any context.

"Them?" Ye Chen frowned slightly. "Who are they?"

Old Luo's expression was solemn as he said, "All of them!"

"Yesterday I received news that the Blackfire Sect's experts had secretly arrived in Qingyue City and planned to do something important in three days. So I personally went to investigate and confirmed their destination: the Fire Dragon Mountains, more than 500 miles from Qingyue City!"

"Fire Dragon Mountains? What are they going there for?" Ye Chen asked, somewhat puzzled.

He knew this place; it was an active volcano that occasionally erupted violent lava flows, and it was home to many powerful fire-attribute magical beasts.

Elder Luo shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics, but it seems they want to ambush a demon beast king from the Fire Dragon Mountain Range. Moreover, Lin Yuheng is taking this very seriously, not only bringing the experts from the Black Fire Sect, but also all the Dou Huang-level experts he has recruited over the years—a total of five Dou Huangs and more than ten high-level Dou Wangs..."

"They've come out in full force!" Ye Chen thought to himself, his eyes narrowing as he quickly pondered what kind of magical beast could have caused Lin Yuheng to go to such lengths.

"What does Miss Lin plan to do?" Ye Chen turned to look at Old Master Luo and asked.

Old Master Luo said in a deep voice, "Miss is currently in seclusion, attempting to break through to a higher level. This time, we would like to ask Mr. Hu to help us thwart their operation. Whatever their purpose is, as long as we prevent them from succeeding, we can hold out until a month later!"

Ye Chen agreed with this.

but……

"I'm afraid it wouldn't be easy for us to do that on our own."

After all, Lin Yutong had very little power. The only strong ones were Hu Tian and Elder Luo, and the only others were a one-star Dou Huang and three high-level Dou Wangs...

This is far inferior to Lin Yuheng, who has the Black Fire Sect's assistance!

"Don't worry, when I was investigating Lin Yuheng, I found that Lin Yucheng and Lin Yuting's people were there. Obviously, they must have received the news and will not choose to remain indifferent."

This gave Ye Chen peace of mind. Currently, the four heirs of Qingyue City are all restraining each other. As long as one side makes a move, the others will definitely try to sabotage it from the shadows.

If that's the case...

“Okay, Old Hu and I will set off with you then,” Ye Chen agreed immediately.

His words surprised Elder Luo slightly. Looking at the extremely serious Ye Chen, he thought for a moment before tactfully saying, "I think it's fine for Mr. Hu to come with me. It would be better for Young Master Song to wait for news in the city. After all, many powerful magical beasts live in the Fire Dragon Mountains, and if something unexpected happens, there might be danger..."

Okay, although it wasn't explicitly stated, the meaning is clear.

They simply think Ye Chen is too weak and will definitely hold them back if he goes...

Ye Chen, however, had already made up his mind and said with a light laugh, "Don't worry, Mr. Luo, I will take good care of myself."

Hearing Ye Chen say this, Elder Luo was also helpless.

There was nothing I could do; after all, Hu Tian was the other party's subordinate, and I didn't seem to have the right to make decisions for him. But whatever, since he himself wasn't worried about his safety, why should I, an outsider, care so much?

After agreeing on a departure time, Mr. Luo left immediately.

After he left, Hu Tian asked the same question as Elder Luo...

"Young master, this trip to the Fire Dragon Mountains will definitely be dangerous. Why do you insist on going by yourself?"

If it's just to ruin Lin Yuheng's plans, then having Hu Tian go along is fine.

Why would Ye Chen risk his life like that?

Ye Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing, I'm just very curious what kind of magical beast could make Lin Yuheng and the Blackfire Sect go to such lengths..."

Okay, there's one more thing I haven't mentioned...

It was precisely because the Fire Dragon Mountain Range was said to be home to many powerful fire-attribute magical beasts, and even rumored to have once been inhabited by fire dragons, that Ye Chen was eager to go and see for himself, in case he encountered one that suited him!

The protagonist's halo is something you can never really predict...

Three days later, Elder Luo returned to Ye Chen's residence and led the two of them to a dense forest outside Qingyue City.

"Lin Yuheng and the Blackfire Sect's group are not far ahead. We just need to follow them from behind. But..."

Looking at Ye Chen, Old Luo looked troubled.

Needless to say, they were definitely trying to make things difficult for Ye Chen, making it hard for him to keep up later...

After all, the weakest among their group was a Dou Wang, capable of flight, as was their own. Ye Chen, a Great Dou Shi, couldn't do that…

However, Ye Chen was prepared for this and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Elder Luo, Elder Hu will take care of me in a while. Just lead the way."

Even so, Ye Chen still felt a little regretful, as he hadn't taken the time to cultivate a flight combat technique in the previous five years.

Although flying combat techniques are extremely rare on the mainland, and many people rarely even witness them, this does not include the Ye family and Ye Chen...

As one of the five great families in the Dan Domain, the Ye family has a very rich collection of cultivation techniques and fighting skills.

Perhaps there aren't any high-level ones, but there are three Xuan-rank flying combat techniques, which have always been treasured in the library and are completely open to Ye Chen, the young master of the Ye family.

"It seems I really will have to learn a flight combat technique when I get back..."

As Hu Tian grabbed his shoulder and flew through the air, Ye Chen couldn't help but think to himself.

After traveling together for only an hour, the group had already arrived at the Fire Dragon Mountain Range...

Looking down at the massive mountain range covered in black volcanic ash, it resembled a giant dragon stretching across the landscape. In the distance, thick smoke billowed from many places, and fiery eyes were faintly visible in the smoke.

"As expected! Lin Yucheng and Lin Yuting's people have also arrived..."

Seeing a group of people hanging like them in the distance, Old Luo sneered and said.

Ye Chen looked up...

Yeah, I can't see anything.

The opponent was, after all, a powerful figure, and he, a mere Grand Master, couldn't possibly detect him.

However, before setting off, he had already taken a Breath Concealing Pill, making his aura almost imperceptible. Even a Dou Huang expert would have difficulty detecting him within five hours.

After all, it was a special type of rank-five high-grade pill, and only someone like Ye Chen, who came from a family of alchemists, could use it so extravagantly and casually.

If this were auctioned off, it would probably be more valuable than a regular sixth-grade pill!

It was precisely because of this small trump card that Ye Chen dared to take such a risk...

And so the group ventured another hundred miles deeper, reaching the true core area of ​​the Fire Dragon Mountain Range.

suddenly……

"Roar!"

A loud dragon roar resounded, and the magical beasts hidden in the mountains immediately stirred.

A colossal beast, hundreds of meters long and winding, burst forth from a volcano spewing black smoke. Its ferocious appearance immediately startled everyone...

"This is... a one-horned fire spirit dragon!!!"

Chapter Thirty-Six: The Terrifying War

Crimson lava shot into the sky, setting the entire sky ablaze.

The intense energy fluctuations continuously produced sounds like muffled thunder, and even though Ye Chen and the others were quite far from the battle site, they still felt dizzy.

"It's actually a one-horned fire spirit dragon! I never expected that such a beast would be hidden within Fire Dragon Mountain!" Elder Luo's expression was also serious, and he vaguely understood the purpose of Lin Yuheng and the Black Fire Sect's large-scale mobilization here.

"It is said that this one-horned fire spirit dragon possesses a considerable dragon bloodline, and at its peak can grow to the strength of the seventh rank peak, making it an extremely powerful existence among all sub-dragon type magical beasts..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's expression subtly revealed excitement.

It seems I really made the right choice coming here. With the bloodline level and strength of this one-horned fire spirit dragon, it's more than enough to solidify my star essence diagram!

Of course, given the current situation, obtaining the Fire Spirit Dragon won't be easy for him, so everything still depends on these people...

Thinking this, Ye Chen's gaze also subtly fell on the backs of Elder Luo and his group ahead.

Ye Chen secretly gave Hu Tian a wink, and then, while everyone's attention was drawn to the enormous object in the sky, Ye Chen used his fighting spirit to make his voice a single line and whispered a few words to Hu Tian.

Hu Tian was shocked by Ye Chen's words. His expression darkened, but seeing Ye Chen's determined look, he could only nod reluctantly.

There was no way around it; what Ye Chen had just said was far too dangerous. A slight misstep could lead to a major disaster, so he couldn't help but worry.

Just after Ye Chen and Hu Tian finished whispering, Elder Luo suddenly turned his head, looked at the two of them, and said, "Young Master Song, we will need Mr. Hu to help me stop those two powerful figures from the Blackfire Sect later."

The two powerful figures who came from the Blackfire Sect this time were both nine-star Dou Huang level experts. Apart from Elder Luo, only Hu Tian could hold them off.

As for the other two groups, it's really hard to say whether they'll be friends or enemies...

Having already made his decision, Ye Chen nodded in agreement, "Okay, Elder Hu will go with you in a bit, and I'll observe from a distance for now..."

Then he looked at Hu Tian and gave him a reassuring look.

After the plan was finalized, the battle in the sky began...

Faced with the siege of several Dou Huang powerhouses, even though the One-Horned Fire Spirit Dragon was already at the peak of the sixth rank, it was still being suppressed to a great extent.

"Action!" Elder Luo shouted, then led Lin Yutong's men directly toward the battlefield.

Hu Tian glanced at Ye Chen with some concern, then sighed and followed.

In a short while, only Ye Chen remained in the same spot.

Squinting at the disappearing crowd, Ye Chen knew they definitely wouldn't attack now. The best time for Elder Luo and the others to make their move would be when the One-Horned Fire Spirit Dragon was nearly defeated and the Black Fire Sect members were also exhausted.

As for Ye Chen, we'll have to wait until the battlefield truly descends into chaos before making a decision...

Thinking this, Ye Chen's body was covered with a layer of silver flame armor. With the current level of his Starfire, even against a Dou Wang, it would be impossible to kill him in one blow.

A burst of violent battle aura erupted beneath his feet, instantly creating a large crater in the black volcanic rock where he stood. Ye Chen himself transformed into a phantom, heading towards the battle circle along the ridge.

At this moment, on the battlefield in the sky

r />

Under the massive offensive of the Blackfire Sect, the already wounded One-Horned Fire Spirit Flood Dragon was enraged, and roars of dragons echoed from its mouth.

"Despicable humans, what kind of skill is it to gang up on the few! If you have the guts, fight me one-on-one and settle this once and for all!"

Opposite them, a Blackfire Sect expert in a black robe adorned with fire patterns wielded a longsword formed from flaming battle qi, slashing it down on the Fire Spirit Dragon, instantly tearing its scales apart and spraying blood everywhere...
