Chapter 724: Chapter 724: The Interceptor

“That’s an opportunity!”

Lin Yi’s eyes sparkled, “Find the Fire Seed! I refuse to believe that there’s anything my Peacock Demon King can’t tame!”

Now that he knew about the existence of Golden Burning Fire, Lin Yi certainly had no intention of missing out on such a treasure—it must not fall into others’ hands!

Little Jin said, “Flames like Golden Burning Fire, which have developed intelligence, won’t easily reveal themselves unless lured out by other flames.”

“Will this do?”

Lin Yi flipped his palm over, and in his hand, a wisp of Phoenix True Fire appeared.

“Is this Phoenix True Fire?”

Little Jin’s eyes brightened, “Although it’s not from the Phoenix itself, not the genuine Phoenix True Fire, that doesn’t matter. If it were the genuine Phoenix True Fire, then the Golden Burning Fire would be too scared to even show up.”

Phoenix True Fire originated from the Ancient Phoenix. Golden Burning Fire was far inferior to it.

Without wasting any more words, Lin Yi flipped his palm, and a mini Phoenix abruptly flew out, circling the Fire Array, attempting to lure out the Fire Seed of the Golden Burning Fire.

However, after an hour had passed, Lin Yi was controlling the mini Phoenix flames, having circled the Fire Array more than a dozen times, yet still without a sight of the Golden Burning Fire’s Fire Seed.

This gradually dampened Lin Yi’s initially high spirits.

“Little Gold, is your method reliable?”

Lin Yi frowned. After such a long wait without even a glimpse of the Golden Burning Fire’s Fire Seed, he began to question whether the seed was even here at all.

“It should be right on the mark.”

Little Jin seemed confident about his own judgment, then his gaze fell on the cluster of Phoenix Flames Lin had been manipulating and he pondered, “Is it possible that your bait is too small to catch its interest?”

Hearing this, Lin Yi immediately intensified his effort, expanding the Phoenix Flames tenfold, sparing no expense to capture the Fire Seed!

Lin Yi had made up his mind—if he still couldn’t attract the Fire Seed this time, he’d have to give up.

Just as Lin Yi was about to give up with a sinking heart, suddenly a golden Fire Beast burst forth from the Fire Array, pouncing directly at the Phoenix Flames!

It swallowed the Phoenix Flames in one gulp!

“It’s revealed itself!”

Lin Yi’s eyes lit up with excitement. After such a long attempt, he had finally lured out the little creature!

“Nowhere to run!”

Having finally attracted the Fire Seed, Lin Yi was not about to let it go easily. He dashed forward at full speed, launching an attack at the golden beast!

However, just as Lin Yi sprang into action, two pillars of fire suddenly shot out from the Fire Array—Golden Burning Fire, converging directly toward him!

Lin Yi reacted with coolness in the face of danger and immediately brought forth the Ancient Bronze Palace to shield himself. The Golden Burning Fire swept over the palace but failed to threaten it in the slightest.

It didn’t budge an inch!

Even Lin Yi was surprised—the material of the Ancient Bronze Palace was truly extraordinary. The Golden Burning Fire could even deform Holy Artifacts but could not affect the palace one bit.

Using the Ancient Bronze Palace to fend off the Golden Burning Fire, Lin Yi swiftly closed in on the mini golden Fire Beast, his eyes revealing a fervor.

But just as Lin Yi was about to capture the Fire Beast, suddenly a fire net flew in front of him, trapping the golden Fire Beast!

In the next instant, an elated laughter burst forth, “Hahaha, it’s actually the Fire Seed of the Golden Burning Fire. The Kirin Royal Family must be in luck!”

Lin Yi’s expression darkened as he looked in the direction of the voice, and sure enough, several figures appeared nearby. The two leading them were none other than Qiao Shaofeng and Qi Zhenjun!

Enemies indeed cross paths!

The two had actually appeared in this place!

“So, it’s you, Kong Linyun,”

It was only then that Qiao Shaofeng clearly made out Lin Yi’s appearance, his face showing a mocking smile as if to say Lin Yi was a big fool. “We should thank you for bringing the Fire Seed of the Golden Burning Fire to us, otherwise we really would have had trouble catching this little thing.”

Upon seeing this, both Little Jin and Lu Qingcheng’s expressions changed. Could it be bad luck on their part? After all their efforts, the people from the Kirin Royal Family had snatched their prize?

A fierce murderous intent flashed through Lin Yi’s eyes, “Dare to snatch my treasure, no matter what royal family you are, today, you will all bleed right here!”

As his words fell, Lin Yi sprung into action without a second thought, heading straight for the members of the Qilin Clan!

“Court death!”

Seeing Lin Yi attack, Qiao Shaofeng and Qi Zhenjun both smiled coldly. They were aware of Lin Yi’s acclaimed victories in recent days, having defeated numerous undefeatable Heavenly Prides. But what of it? Lin Yi was now arrogantly crossing the line, daring to challenge the high-skilled members of the Qilin Clan alone, which was utterly overestimating himself!

“Kill!!”

Both Qiao Shaofeng and Qi Zhenjun let out furious roars as they lunged forward to attack. Qiao Shaofeng’s true form was the Black Jade Qilin with an origin of ice, and Qi Zhenjun was a Fire Qilin with an origin of fire. The two attacked together, one ice and one fire, ferociously pincering Lin Yi from both sides!
