Although she was amazed that Yu Tianshuang, that lecherous scoundrel, could kill Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast with a single sword strike and glance, and defied her common sense by preventing the Soul Beast's self-destruction—an irreversible outcome— Huo Wu's hands did not stop for a moment. Especially when she realized once again the enormous gap between herself and him, she desperately wanted to become stronger.

"Crackling, crackling."

Huo Wu swung her sword again and again at the Giant Nirvana Egg, which shimmered like a beating heart. Her thoughts drifted back to the time when Shui Bing'er first entered the Spirit Hall, floating in mid-air like a true god, suppressing Ling Yuan Douluo with one hand—that invincible scene.

Huo Wu has always believed that she is no less than Shui Bing'er. The only reason she has been suppressed by Shui Bing'er is due to the limitation of her Martial Soul level. In terms of talent, aptitude, comprehension, and hard work, she believes that she is no less than Shui Bing'er, and even surpasses her in terms of Soul Power control.

However, since Yu Tianshuang gifted her treasures twice, her biggest weakness was compensated for and even surpassed, but the gap did not decrease. Huo Wu then realized that the real difference between herself and Shui Bing'er was not Martial Soul talent or aptitude, but mentality, or more accurately, the heart of a strong person.

"Hey, silly girl, what are you thinking about? If you keep going like this, who knows when you'll break through Nirvana's defenses? Calm down, concentrate, focus your attention, and feel its rhythm and pattern."

After Yu Tianshuang waved his hand and turned the Wasteland Wolf King into ice shards, he saw Huo Wu's eyes were vacant and her body was mechanically swinging her long sword. He knew that this silly girl was thinking about something again. After standing next to her and sensing the aura of the Giant Nirvana Egg for a while, he tapped her on the head and said.

Huo Wu's chaotic thoughts were pulled back to reality. She winced and rubbed her head with her long, slender, white hand. Her Yu Tianshuang a reproachful look, and she said, "What are you doing! Hitting me without a word, really..."

After grumbling, she finally focused her attention and looked closely. Even though Yu Tianshuang's Ultimate Ice had broken through most of her defenses, this thin membrane of flesh remained unharmed after she had slashed it countless times. Like a heartbeat, it flashed red light rhythmically, as if mocking her.

Could Huo Wu, with her temper, tolerate such a silent provocation from the Giant Nirvana Egg? Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she raised her right hand holding the sword as if to strike. However, having comprehended the Ring Fusion and Ring Fusion, her comprehension was clearly extraordinary. The sword did not strike down. The words Yu Tianshuang had just spoken echoed in her ears, and her eyes were fixed on the fiery red giant egg in front of her.

As the Giant Nirvana Egg Huo Wu with red light, Huo Wu's mind seemed to be immersed in it. At that moment, it was as if only the giant egg existed before her eyes. After a short while, "thump, thump, thump," a sound like a heartbeat rang in her mind. Huo Wu closed her eyes and carefully sensed it.

Before long, the fiery power emanating from around the Giant Nirvana Egg seemed to be attracted by something and began to converge towards Huo Wu. As more and more fiery power gathered into Huo Wu's body, Yu Tianshuang watched as her body slowly turned fiery red. The surrounding earth began to slowly vaporize, and the air around her distorted due to the high temperature. Although this temperature could not harm him, Yu Tianshuang still conjured a set of ice-blue armor to resist the high temperature. His clothes could not withstand Huo Wu's scorching heat.

After activating her Extreme Ice Eternal Frost Eye, Yu Tianshuang observed carefully for a while, then couldn't help but chuckle to herself, "So that's how it is... Huo Wu, that silly girl, really surprised me, actually thinking of using such a forceful method to deal with the Giant Nirvana Egg..."

"But this method suits you best, Huo Wu. I must say, you truly are worthy of yours..."

After realizing what method Huo Wu was planning to use, Yu Tianshuang felt a little amused, but couldn't help but sigh. Huo Wu's personality was truly just like her—always so direct and decisive.

In fact, after Yu Tianshuang used the Ultimate Ice to break through the strongest defense of the Giant Nirvana Egg's outer shell, the thin membrane inside had virtually no defensive power.

However, it's not so easy to simply break through with a longsword like Huo Wu earlier. The simplest way is to find the weakest point in the defense when the Giant Nirvana Egg is throbbing and thrust the longsword through it. This is what he wanted Huo Wu to do after he tapped her on Huo Wu head earlier.

However, Huo Wu was in a state of confusion, absorbing a large amount of Phoenix True Flame power that was released from the Giant Nirvana Egg after it broke open. She actually wanted to use even stronger flame power to suppress the power of the Giant Nirvana Egg and kill it with flame power.

"The heart of a strong person?" Huo Wu murmured softly.

Yu Tianshuang might not know Huo Wu's current state of mind, but Huo Wu herself knew. She was able to enter this wondrous state because she had gleaned some insights from the rhythmic pulsation of the red light on the Giant Nirvana Egg. Naturally, she could also discern when its defenses were weakest. All she needed to do was seize that opportunity and gently deliver a sword strike, and the phoenix's Soul Ring and Soul Bone would belong to her.

But she lowered the longsword she had raised high in the air. The image of Shui Bing'er, who looked down upon the world, flashed through her mind again. She couldn't help but wonder, if she were in that situation, what would this woman do?

She would definitely disdain using such a method. Since that's the case, then Huo Wu wouldn't do it either. She would use a flame even hotter than the phoenix fire that represented the pinnacle of flames in the world to kill it. Only what she obtained in this way would truly belong to her, Huo Wu!

"My flames, Huo Wu's flames, are the strongest and most intense in the world. From this day forward, when people think of flames, they will no longer think of a phoenix, but of me, Huo Wu!"

She was speaking not only to the Giant Nirvana Egg before her, but also to herself; the red light emanating Huo Wu Wu's fiery red eyes seemed to burn everything in the world to ashes.

A slender, snow-white arm slowly extended towards the Giant Nirvana Egg, and then a large amount of flames erupted from the palm, instantly enveloping the entire Giant Nirvana Egg.

Yu Tianshuang Huo Wu at Huo Wu's figure, which resembled a flame, and at her resounding words. His sharp eyes were fixed on her, lost in thought. His lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but then he slowly closed them again. Huo Wu's Huo Wu image was frozen in time, firmly etched into his mind, never to be erased.

"Bang!"

The struggle between the flames between Huo Wu and the Giant Nirvana Egg did not last long. With an explosion, the Giant Nirvana Egg finally collapsed, and the endless power of flames contained within it was freed from its restraints and was about to erupt, crushing everything in its path into dust.

However, no matter how much the flames expanded, they could not break through the even hotter flames that Huo Wu was enveloping them in. Finally, as Huo Wu slowly clenched her fist, the flames shrank from large to small and were crushed by Huo Wu, turning into sparks that dissipated into the air.
