At that moment, Su Ming's condition was indeed just as Elder Ling had guessed—not good.
"Ha!"
Under the night sky, Su Ming unleashed his speed to the limit and shot toward Elder Qin like a bolt of lightning. The Fire Fang longsword clenched in his right hand tore through the air, carrying scorching heat as it slashed forward.
This strike not only employed the techniques of the fastest sword art in the Ancient Sword Art Legacy; the power of Su Ming's right hand, ten times greater than normal, also erupted without restraint, causing a sonic boom to accompany the slash of Fire Fang.
Such a powerful and rapid slash would have been impossible to block even for Crow, who ranked third among the Ten Demons, possessed the strength of a peak six-star Hunter, and had extraordinarily powerful mutant senses.
In the face of such a slash, a Warlock with sluggish movements and an ordinary person's physique should, in theory, have had no chance of blocking it.
Yet when the slash passed through Elder Qin's body, it achieved nothing. It merely caused his figure to scatter like starlight, leaving it completely untouchable.
Elder Qin's expression did not change in the slightest. He calmly received Su Ming's astonishing slash, then waited until Su Ming's old momentum had not yet dissipated and his new strength had yet to gather, leaving him able only to continue the slash through inertia, before extending a hand and causing ring-shaped arrays to float into existence.
The next second, a wave of blazing flames surged forth and slammed into Su Ming.
"Bang!"
Amid the grand explosion, waves of fire blossomed beneath the night sky like fireworks.
Su Ming was blown away, his entire body trailing charred smoke as he was engulfed by the explosive flames.
"Tsk!"
