Chapter 531: Cooling-off (1/2)

”Fifteen minutes is the limit huh…” Raven murmured as he saw the seal he created shattering on Kyrie's hand.

Honestly, this time frame is a bit too short for his liking. It would've been nice if the seal lasted for at least an hour or two, that way it can be used for emergency. Fifteen minutes was way too short for people at his cultivation level to restore the energy they lost and the fatigue they accumulated.

”This result is already terrific, Young Lord!” Kyrie said as she went back inside the formation. ”If you can somehow place this seal into a material that could imprint the seal even without your personal interference, then fifteen minutes is already plenty. That's enough for anyone to activate the escape seal in order to retreat to Greece.” Kyrie mentioned, having mixed feelings about this event.

Seriously, this Young Lord of hers was too capable. This was his first visit at this place and he already deduced a way which allows him to resist the Curse of Wrath, this was simply too fantastic! At the same time, she was also feeling nervous since the more brilliance her Young Lord displays, the potential threat he imposes to his competitors rises.

Just by being a 'Chosen' already places him in a very difficult position. Because he's weak, he will be intentionally targeted by the others. What if his competitors heard about his accomplishments this early? Wouldn't that place him under their radar sooner? It's even highly possible that they will join hands in order to take him down.

If that happens then…

Kyrie doesn't even want to think about it.

”Meh.” Raven uttered, ”Far from enough, if it had been at least an hour then I'd feel the same. Fifteen minutes is too short for me.”

”No rush, though.” Raven shrugged as he took out some dried rations from his spatial ring and ate them. ”I already have an idea how to improve it. For now, I'll just focus on the mission.”

Kyrie nodded, satisfied with his way of thinking. She then simply stood there unmoving because there's really nothing else to do.

She isn't tired nor does she need to recover her energies. Sitting on the ground would be stupid, she didn't want singe her buttocks. Unlike Raven, she didn't bring any furniture with her and he isn't inviting him to sir either so, stand it is.

”This heat is really something else.” Raven muttered as he felt himself sweating.

Asphodel was really hot. Even with his enhanced physique and all, he could still feel the heat coming out of the ground. This place is no different from the mouth of a volcano, in fact it's even worse.

Being here made him realize as to why Inner Disciples can't stay here for long. He penetrating heat is just too much. It saps away energy fast. Raven wasn't even doing anything and he's sweating.

Raven suddenly stood up and hummed. He then unceremoniously began shooting one seal after another towards the formation. This sudden action of his didn't escape Kyrie's eyes.

Seeing how his turned into a blur as he shot one seal after another caused Kyrie's eyes to twitch.

'I-Is he, modifying the array while it's active!?' Kyrie thought incredulously.

Kyrie was no stranger to formations. In fact, she had ample knowledge about it since she could tell that Raven was precisely doing what she just thought.

Seriously, her Young Lord was just full of surprises! It had to be known that what he's doing is something that even some Formation Grandmasters can't do. But just by looking at his seemingly disinterested expression, she got an impression that his actions were as easy as turning a palm for him.

How could she not ne shocked? This Young Lord of hers is just simply an evil-doer!

Kyrie tried to discern what kind of seals he's forming but she couldn't, additionally she could tell that no matter how hard she tried she wouldn't be able to decipher them right away. Raven's speed of shooting out seals didn't give her that chance either, therefore she didn't even bother.

Instead, she just remained silent and waited until her Young Lord was done.

After a few minutes, something happened that caused Kyrie's body to shook.

'I-Is it…it's getting colder!?' She once again though incredulously. Her gaze at Raven turned increasingly hotter as time passed by.

'How is this possible!?' She exclaimed inwardly, she tried to feel the temperature around her once more in doubt but the fresh breeze of winds couldn't lie.
