Blazing Earthfire, Burning the Enemy's Flesh

"The Core-Forging Realm, shattered divine power? It seems to be a realm above the Soul-Refining Realm in the path of Life Cultivation, equivalent to Divine Soul cultivator in the Unity Realm! Outside, even if divine power is shattered, there's still the Domain of Law and the People's Wishes to mobilize, but here it's more troublesome!"

In the blink of an eye, flames surged from Qiu Yan's hand, and the tip of Yin Xiao'e's spear flickered, colliding with the five blood-red streaks, each sustaining damage.

At this moment, Dong Grand Preceptor seemed to come to his senses. He frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Shi Jianhui, what is the meaning of this? Why did you suddenly make a move?"

"My condition for helping you this time is to capture this god," Shi Jianhui, controlling the ribbon with one hand to fight Qiu Yan and Yin Xiao'e, while pointing at Qiu Yan with the other. "I am determined to obtain this Minyuan Mountain God, but judging from the words of the Grand Tutor, he seems to have taken a liking to talent. To prevent any unforeseen complications, I had no choice but to resort to this tactic!"

Hearing this, Qiu Yan's heart skipped a beat. "She actually saw through my identity as the Minyuan Mountain God. Although this Divine Rank is part of the talisman, I have always displayed the supernatural Divine Ability of the Kitchen God! How could an outsider know this? And when did she figure it out? In the current situation, the Jiedushi's wife has made an agreement with that Dong Grand Preceptor. It all depends on the Grand Tutor's attitude. If the situation is unfavorable..."

Before Qiu Yan could even finish his thought, Dong Grand Preceptor sighed, "Very well, this girl has lost all will to restore the kingdom. Let's capture her first. If all else fails, we'll have to brand her Slave Seal. Shi Jianhui, you and I have some disagreements, but these are minor matters. We'll decide on them later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he sat back down in his chair, waved his hand, and with two cracking sounds, the two white bone spheres next to the Totem Pillar exploded, and two gleaming white figures sprang out!

"I've just acquired two God Slave, and they can be put to use right now, saving me the trouble of taking action."

Amidst these aged voices, two figures roared and charged towards the battle!

With a single glance, Qiu Yan recognized Ye Lu and Liu Xuan as the ones rushing towards him. However, these two gods were now nothing but bones, their flesh and blood gone. Their eyes flashed with bloodlust, and their divine power surged, revealing a chaotic and violent emotional fluctuation. They no longer resembled gods at all.

Roar!

Liu Xuan roared furiously, a tiger shadow flashed around him. The ground around him trembled, and white bones burst out of the soil, one by one, soaring into the sky, about to form a cage.

Ye Lu roared, his hands swung out, stretching and bending, quickly connecting with the molted body to form a door frame. His entire body swelled and extended, transforming into a white bone gate, its doors like lips, with sharp fangs. As soon as the gate opened, it lunged forward, releasing Fortune reversed fortune and rising misfortune.

"Oh? Grand Tutor, you've got some impressive skills. With these two taking action, we can save a lot of effort." Shi Jianhui saw this and subtly retreated, seemingly intending to let the two crazed gods take the lead.

But at this moment, the two gods had not yet arrived. Shi Jianhui retreated, though he seemed to be gathering his strength, preparing to join forces with the two mad gods to strike and decide the fate of the world in one fell swoop. However, this created a slight opening in the attack, which Qiu Yan seized upon!

How could Qiu Yan miss such a golden opportunity?

He jolted violently, breaking free from the five streaks of blood-red light. Two flames then spread from his eyes, instantly engulfing his entire body.

Boom!

A thunderclap out of nowhere!

In an instant, Qiu Yan was engulfed in flames, with tongues of fire leaping and dancing, the longest of which was a full ten feet long!

His entire body seemed to be ignited with divine power, releasing waves that penetrated obstacles and reached deep into the earth!

Immediately afterward, Qiu Yan pushed off with his feet, his legs swinging, leaving a trail of fire with each step, and charged towards Shi Jianhui, leaving a trail of fire behind him!

"Huh? He's going to fight to the death?"

The thought flashed through Shi Jianhui's mind, but when she thought about the real purpose of this trip, she hesitated.

This hesitation cost her the chance to join forces with the two crazed gods to attack Qiu Yan!

Shock!

The ground suddenly shook violently, followed by two loud booms. Two dark red Fire Pillar of fire suddenly shot up from beneath the feet of Ye Lu and Liu Xuan, who were rushing forward!

As soon as the Fire Pillar appeared, it unleashed a violent and destructive aura, instantly engulfing the two gods. The intense flames directly shattered the tiger shadow on Liu Xuan's body and the white bones surrounding Ye Lu!

Intense! Violent! More powerful and forceful than divine power!

This is a destructive force originating from the depths of the earth! It possesses a grand momentum that can sweep away the heavens and earth and level the universe!

"Earthfire?" Dong Grand Preceptor, seated on the bone throne, widened his eyes. "Could the principles of heaven and earth that this god comprehended be Earthfire?"

The Shi Jianhui that echoed from the Fire Pillar engulfing the two crazed gods only fueled Shi Jianhui's anger.

"We've fallen for their trap! I thought this Min Yuan Lesser God was going to fight to the death, but it turns out he was just bluffing, using a feint to attack from the east while attacking from the west!"

Across from her, Qiu Yan seemed to see through her thoughts and said coldly, "If you think this is just a bluff, you are sorely mistaken!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the soil beneath Qiu Yan's feet cracked open, and streams of dark red flames surged out, merging into his fiery body. The flames covering his body instantly rose and exploded!

"Knowing the situation here beforehand, do you think I dared to come here out of mere recklessness? Since you all harbor ill intentions, then we have no choice but to eliminate all the hidden dangers today!"

As they spoke, a ball of flame erupted from Qiu Yan's center, sweeping across the surroundings and unleashing an aura of destruction, scorching, and raging fire!

This vast and boundless artistic conception, along with the flowing and spreading dark red flames, transformed into a Sea of Fire, exuding an ancient and Primordial World aura that filled the surroundings!

But the flames didn't scorch the forest; instead, they surged towards Shi Jianhui like a giant wave!

"Not good!"

Shi Jianhui, who had always appeared relaxed and carefree, finally changed her expression.

"You can actually manipulate the earth Earthfire! How is that possible? No wonder you dared to come here; you had something to rely on, and you deliberately concealed it all for this moment..."

As she spoke, she retreated rapidly, but before she could finish her sentence, she was engulfed in flames. Her cloak and dress were instantly burned away, revealing her snow-white flesh, as translucent as jade.

But in the blink of an eye, charred marks appeared all over his body. This was because the skin was heated, the moisture evaporated, and it was showing signs of carbonization.

Shock, shock, shock!

The next moment, Shi Jianhui's whole body trembled violently, and wisps of blood-red True Essence surged from every pore of his body, merging and swirling around his body, forming a barrier that surrounded him and blocked the scorching Earthfire!

However, the barrier only lasted for a moment before a continuous stream of Earthfire erupted, then contracted violently. Under the immense pressure, the layer of crimson True Essence shattered instantly!

Fragments of True Essence flew about and fell into the Earthfire, only to be completely burned away!

"I wonder how fierce this fire is?" Qiu Yan's voice came over. He was walking towards this place with the flames on his back. However, the Earthfire was violent. Although Qiu Yan could control it, he still had to be careful. He had to use the principles of heaven and earth that he had comprehended to balance himself with the fire. If he was Soul Split even slightly, he would still be burned.

The reason these Earthfire were under his control was due to the Fire Seed of the Lianxi Tribe. Qiu Yan had passed down the Fire-Control Method, which made all the tribespeople worship fire as a god.

Although he could not grasp the thoughts that were being conveyed, just as Dong Grand Preceptor said, it was precisely because there was no interference from the People's Wishes that Qiu Yan was able to sense the heavens and the earth more clearly.

The spread of the Fire Seed Method allowed him to connect with the principles of heaven and earth in this world. As he gradually delved deeper, he was able to communicate with the Earthfire through his thoughts and mobilize it. This was also one of his greatest trump cards.

"Hateful!"

With a roar, Shi Jianhui's body was completely exposed to the flames. At that moment, she made a move—

With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the Hwamei Bird into the air.

Then, the flames pierced through her skin and bones, and her flesh, bones, internal organs, Qi and Blood, and life force rapidly withered and melted in the burning.
