"Has this gorilla lost his damn mind? If I don't screw my Dong'er, am I supposed to screw you instead?"
Feeling the gravity suddenly bearing down on him and hearing the words that spilled from Tai Tan's mouth, Lin Xuanchen's eye twitched uncontrollably as he muttered inwardly.
Still, muttering was one thing. Lin Xuanchen certainly wasn't going to sit there and wait to die.
How did that saying go again?
When trouble came, you couldn't just sit there farting!
Ah, no!
When trouble came, you couldn't just sit there waiting to die!
"Blue Silver Myriad-Forms Domain!"
"Seven Kill Sword Domain!"
With a slight shift of his thoughts, Lin Xuanchen decisively unleashed the domains of both his Martial Souls.
"Heavenly Sky Swordfall Slash!"
Then Lin Xuanchen's gaze sharpened. With a low shout, he held two fingers together like a sword and slashed toward Tai Tan from afar!
In an instant, the space above Tai Tan's head twisted violently, and a Seven Kill Sword dozens of yards tall materialized overhead.
"Riiip!"
The next moment, the enormous Seven Kill Sword tore through the air and cleaved straight down at Tai Tan's head!
"Good brat, you're trying to kill me, aren't you?"
Tai Tan looked up at the enormous Seven Kill Sword whistling down above him, his brow creasing slightly. He raised both hands, preparing to take Lin Xuanchen's attack head-on.
"Boom!"
The Seven Kill Sword, dozens of yards long, slashed down savagely and struck Tai Tan's broad, sturdy hands with a thunderous crash, throwing up a vast cloud of dust.
Yet Tai Tan himself suffered no injury whatsoever. He simply blocked Lin Xuanchen's attack.
"Not enough, brat. Now it's my turn to strike back." Tai Tan exerted force with both hands and tossed the enormous Seven Kill Sword away like a rag doll.
But by the time the dust slowly cleared, Lin Xuanchen was nowhere to be seen.
"Hm?" Although Tai Tan had suppressed his strength, he was still a Super Douluo. A sweep of his powerful spiritual energy immediately revealed Lin Xuanchen's location.
Lin Xuanchen had already activated Three Thousand Lightning Movement and reached the edge of the mountaintop. One more step backward would send him tumbling off the abyss-like cliff.
Yet Lin Xuanchen looked unusually calm. His eyes were tightly shut, and his hands fluttered like butterflies, continuously forming strange, unfamiliar seals.
"Something's off about this brat."
Watching Lin Xuanchen continuously form seals from outside the field and sensing his increasingly illusory aura, Niu Tian couldn't help feeling that something was strange.
"This isn't right. Is this brat about to use some other sorcery?"
Naturally, Tai Tan could sense what Niu Tian could. His yellowish-brown eyes remained fixed unblinkingly on Lin Xuanchen, but he showed no intention of stopping him.
Tai Tan also wanted to see what other tricks Lin Xuanchen could pull.
Time slowly passed, and Lin Xuanchen's hands formed seals faster and faster, until they finally froze at a particular point.
"Human-Flame Fusion, Destruction Fire Body!"
Lin Xuanchen's tightly closed eyes snapped open, and a slightly hoarse, low shout rang from his mouth.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, a wisp of liquid-like green flame shot out of Lin Xuanchen's body.
The moment that liquid-like green flame appeared, an intensely rich aura of life surged endlessly from it.
This extraordinary sight brought deep astonishment to the faces of both Niu Tian and Tai Tan, though not Wang Dong'er.
Naturally, this liquid-like green flame was the Origin Core Flame of the life spirit flame.
Lin Xuanchen normally kept the life spirit flame's Origin Core Flame in his dantian, using it to command the life spirit flame.
Finally, the life spirit flame began to roil continuously, swallowing Lin Xuanchen whole.
"Hiss! Hiss!"
After engulfing Lin Xuanchen completely, the life spirit flame began to circulate endlessly.
As it circulated, Lin Xuanchen's body began to turn crystal clear. Beneath the life spirit flame's burning heat, his body slowly transformed.
Little by little, Lin Xuanchen's body grew transparent, until his internal organs could be seen through it.
The organs inside Lin Xuanchen's body also slowly took on a jade-like color, creating quite a dazzling sight.
"Fuse!"
Lin Xuanchen abruptly clenched both fists. A fierce look flashed through his cyan eyes, and a cold, sharp shout escaped his mouth.
"Boom!"
In a fleeting instant, an enormous emerald-green pillar of light erupted from Lin Xuanchen's body and shot into the heavens, briefly dyeing the clouds above emerald green.
Then, beneath the astonished gazes of Wang Dong'er, Niu Tian, and Tai Tan, a pair of enormous wings formed from the Flame of Life slowly materialized behind Lin Xuanchen.
The wings were entirely emerald green, like jade, with the emerald-green fires of the Flame of Life burning continuously over them. From a distance, Lin Xuanchen's appearance had already changed completely.
To Wang Dong'er and the others, Lin Xuanchen now looked like a doll carved from jade. Even his fingers were covered in a layer of translucent emerald-green crystal.
Destruction Fire Body was a skill Xiao Yan had only used in the original Battle Through the Heavens after acquiring the Fire Spirit Xiao Yi.
This skill unleashed the energy of a heavenly flame to its utmost limit before fusing it with the user's body.
Lin Xuanchen had tried it himself before this. As for why he had dared to try, that was naturally because of the system.
When the system had given him the life spirit flame, it had implanted the Origin Core Flame directly into his body, making their compatibility one hundred percent from the outset.
It was precisely because of this that Lin Xuanchen, who had only just completed the initial fusion of Destruction Fire Body, could already barely activate it.
With Destruction Fire Body activated, his strength could already reach the level of a Titled Douluo.
Even that was only because his body was too weak to fully withstand the life spirit flame's power. Otherwise, he could have raised his strength straight to the God King level without any problem.
Of course, the Destruction Fire Body skill would also improve as his strength increased. Once his physical constitution reached the necessary level, its power would be utterly terrifying!
But he still had a limitation now: time!
At present, he could only keep Destruction Fire Body active for a mere half minute.
