Gu Yao would naturally not let such an opportunity to press his advantage slip by. He closed in further, his left hand forming a claw as icy power transformed it into an incomparably sharp ice claw, which viciously descended toward Xiao Yan's chest.
"Die!"
With a fierce shout from Gu Yao, terrifying cold froze the space itself, forcing the flames protecting Xiao Yan to retreat again and again. Just as that ice claw radiating a dreadful aura came within less than a foot of Xiao Yan's chest, when everyone believed the battle was about to end—
A gray fire dragon sparrow over three meters long suddenly shot out from Xiao Yan's chest, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced toward the ice claw.
"Boom!"
Though the fire dragon was small, its power was not. It collided head-on with the ice claw, immediately melting away layer after layer of terrifying frost before exploding.
The sea of flames surged outward once more. Xiao Yan borrowed the force to retreat at high speed, unable to help feeling relieved. Had he been a second slower, this battle might truly have ended.
"But now, it's my turn!"
Xiao Yan formed a hand seal and shouted inwardly, "Earthly Gang Flame!"
The sea of flames spread, and crimson instantly swept across the ground. Then, a gigantic pillar of magma burst from the earth, shooting straight toward Gu Yao.
Even Gu Yao had not anticipated such a sudden attack, and his body was sent flying by the erupting magma.
Though the impact did not injure him, it still threw off his rhythm. In the next instant, more enormous magma pillars shot into the sky, battering Gu Yao again and again.
The sight resembled a true volcanic eruption, like a natural catastrophe.
