Fire Domain

The Caoyuanshi moved like lightning, tearing through the thinned barrier of wind, sand, and fire, and was the first to break into the Storm Core area, which had a radius of less than one kilometer.

The Blood-Skeleton Daoist, wielding a bone flute-shaped magical artifact gleaming with blood-red light, followed leisurely behind, while the Caoyuanshi Peak acted as the wind-breaking hand in front.

As far as the eye could see, the scene in the core area was unexpected; there was no imposing array of troops, only a square building gleaming with various colors suspended in the center.

A young man stood by the window, holding a brand-new robe that shimmered with the moonlight. He looked at them with neither joy nor sorrow, as if the storm outside had never broken.

"Scholar!"

Even though he had never seen it before, Caoyuanshi recognized it immediately. Its calm and undisturbed demeanor, unaffected by any external upheaval, matched his imagination of a powerful person.

With the defenses crumbling and the enemy closing in, the opponent's composure seemed suspicious to someone like Caoyuanshi, a warrior who had experienced Life and Death battles.

Something's not right!

The alarm bells rang wildly in the heart of the Caoyuanshi, Blood Qi instinctively accelerated their circulation.

But the arrow has already left the bowstring, and there is no turning back.

He suddenly exerted force with his feet, causing a large crater to explode in the ground. His figure transformed into a blurry red streak of light, rushing straight towards Su Luo at several times the speed of sound. The air in front of his fist was compressed to the extreme, producing a piercing explosion.

The Blood-Skeleton Daoist, who followed closely behind, was also a shrewd and experienced man. After confirming that the Caoyuanshi was in front of him, he did not hesitate to unleash his trump card.

With a flick of his sleeve, a long banner, its color dark and seemingly overflowing with the wails of countless living beings, suddenly appeared.

The banner moved without wind, and the distorted, ugly faces on it emitted silent wails. An intense, overwhelming aura of bloodlust and malevolence soared into the sky, causing the surrounding wind, fire, sand, and stones to flee in terror.

"Imperial Edict!"

The Blood-Skeleton Daoist smeared the blood from the tip of his tongue, which he had hidden in his hand, onto the banner.

The banner trembled violently, and several enormous, ferocious-looking blood shadows roared as they pounced out, heading straight for Su Luo. These blood shadows were somewhere between reality and illusion, specifically designed to erode the cultivator's soul—a purely mental attack.

Faced with this earth-shattering double attack of physical and spiritual power, the young man finally made a move.

The blood-red figure rushed forward first. He didn't even look up; his hand holding the robe paused slightly, and then, as if nothing had happened, he waved his hand lightly.

In an instant, the remaining sandstorm and fire curtain around them seemed to be wiped away by an invisible force, revealing the true terror hidden behind them.

Nine Meteorites, completely black and silently Burn with deep Black Flames, emerged from the storm. They were arranged in a mysterious formation, blocking all the space for the two to dodge.

These Meteorites appeared without warning, and Charge speed was incredible. Before the two could even process what was happening, they were already upon them with destructive force.

Blood-Skeleton Daoist's expression changed drastically. In his haste, he could only activate his demonic energy to protect himself, staring intently at the Meteorite crashing down on him.

Pure kinetic energy.

Blood-Skeleton Daoist sensed the kinetic energy.

His protective demonic aura shattered like paper as the Meteorite slammed him to the ground, embedding him deeply into the rock. The banner in his hand dimmed rapidly, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable weight, and several tiny cracks even appeared on its surface.

Two Meteorites fell in succession, colliding with the first Meteorite and sealing him away.

When three identical Meteorite in a line, a match-3 puzzle is triggered, and a special effect appears.

A triple explosion that was absolutely stunning.

Meanwhile, the Caoyuanshi beside him was filled with rage and was swearing.

Three Meteorites struck the path of the charging Caoyuanshi at precise angles in succession. He roared repeatedly, his palms erupting with a Blood Qi red light as intense as the sun, as he fiercely met the attack.

"Boom!"

The palm collided with the Meteorite, exploding into a ring of red and black interwoven energy ripples. The Caoyuanshi's body paused slightly as it pushed the Meteorite away, its bones from its palm to its shoulder shattering.

Caoyuanshi didn't care at all. He shifted his stance and suddenly turned, trying to avoid the remaining two stones.

However, a deadly sense of crisis suddenly arose, like a thorn in his back; Caoyuanshi knew this was a deadly trap.

Two mysterious Meteorites appeared out of nowhere, seemingly anticipating his movements, their trajectories shifting strangely, effectively blocking all his escape routes.

And with a pre-firing shot, that's definitely a direct hit!

A chill ran through the Caoyuanshi heart.

He was struck hard in the chest, abdomen, and back by Meteorite Burn with Black Flames, instantly turning into a two-dimensional being.

Fragments of internal organs mixed with foul blood shot out from the rupture in his chest cavity. His tough stomach and duodenum burst and slid under extreme pressure, spitting out of his mouth, stretching and bulging like hemorrhoids.

The cecum, colon, and rectum silently slipped out through the Back Door, a yellowish-red, paste-like mess, like vomit.

In that instant, disregarding his large stomach, the Caoyuanshi had a sudden thought:

"Ignite! Sacrifice— the Origin Blood Qi!"

It was as if a gate within his body had been suddenly opened, and his already immense Blood Qi instantly Burn, transforming into visible crimson-gold flames that burst forth from his body.

His body seemed to swell in the flames, countless ancient and mysterious totem patterns appeared on his skin, and his aura rose wildly at an incredible speed.

He gritted his teeth and gnawed off the remaining intestines that were still attached to the outside. His internal cavities rapidly filled with the support of his Burn Blood Qi, and his flesh and organs Regeneration at an unprecedented speed.

But the next moment--

The two Meteorites that were close to him suddenly Convergence Black Flames, becoming dark and lifeless. Then, an even more terrifying implosion occurred!

A destructive force erupted from within, pushing his body, which had just begun to recover, back to the brink of collapse.

"Reignite! Sacrifice—Strength, Constitution, Spirit, and Lifespan Limit!"

Smoke and dust filled the deep, crater, whose edges had become vitrified.

An arm Burn with golden blood flames suddenly stretched out and gripped the edge of the pit. Caoyuanshi raised his face. One of his pupils had dimmed and shattered, but the remaining eye Burn with an almost insane determination.

He struggled to his feet, assuming a profound stance, his body Burn with golden Blood Qi.

He quickly scanned his surroundings, his mental perception heightened to its limit, ready for battle... However, the expected barrage of attacks did not materialize.

He blocked the remaining Meteorites with his overwhelming Blood Qi, then pushed them away with force, sending them disappearing into the smoke and Fire Domain.

The immense power brought by his Talent surged within him, giving him an unprecedented sense of strength. He held up one palm, and a ball of golden blood flame, condensed to its extreme, leaped Burn, displaying astonishing momentum.

"It's... my turn now!"

A furious roar, like the cry of a trapped dragon, shook the surrounding area, as if announcing the arrival of the moment for counterattack.

He roared and lunged at --

The opposite direction of the storm.

Run!

The ultimate skill isn't for fighting; it's for escaping!

I knew that Trickster was up to no good! He tricked me into fighting a Xiantian cultivator! Luckily, I had a trump card up my sleeve!

And that Blood Skeleton guy with tattoos all over his buttocks while casting spells, what Curse did he cast? The other character was perfectly fine, are they all just playing me?!

Filled with rage, the Caoyuanshi, with half a small tail trailing behind it, transformed into a streak of crimson-gold and vanished.

However, when he rushed to the edge of the storm, the scene before him made his heart sink.

Fire Domain!

As far as the eye could see, the area ahead had transformed into an endless sea of black fire!

The flames had lost the Berserk and flamboyant form they had displayed in the previous storm. They flowed and Burn Jingjing, like a viscous, inky liquid. They were silent, yet they exuded an aura of Extinction that was purer and deeper than the Black Flames before.

Even high in the Fire Domain, where the air seemed to Burn, swallowing any light that entered it, creating an eerie sense of emptiness. The debris scattered during the storm's collapse also Burn upon falling into the black flames.

He turned sharply, looking at the metal building that was still suspended in the core area.

The person standing by the window held his robe indifferently, his hands behind his back.
