Chapter 117: Melted in Blazing Flames, Dissolved in Dawn; A Seal Cutting Through Space

Ye Xuan naturally did not know the thoughts of this mutated green python; of course, even if he knew, he would not care.

It has not hurt anyone now, but does that mean it will never hurt anyone in the future?

If this mutated green python were a pet raised by humans and completely submissive to its master; or a partner contracted by a mutant who had awakened beast-controlling abilities, then naturally it would be fine, but who made it a wild mutated creature?

"Crack."

The right arm of the Flame Dragon Armor swept across the Universe belt at his waist; the gears on the right side turned in response. In an instant, fierce flames erupted from the center of the belt, and a flaming blade tag materialized in mid-air, carving a brilliant trail of fire through the sky.

Ye Xuan reached his right hand into the burning blade tag; the moment his five fingers closed.

"Clang!"

A sword cry like a dragon's roar echoed across the lakeside!

The Flame Blade was drawn completely from the void; its entire body crimson, with golden fire patterns winding around the blade. Where the blade edge passed, the air was scorched into distorted ripples.

"Crack!"

His left hand simultaneously turned the gears on the left side of the belt. A massive "Sever" character, the Demon-Severing Tag, burst open in the void. Golden-red runes swam like living creatures, containing terrifying energy.

"Boom—"

The instant the Flame Blade touched the Demon-Sealing Tag, the entire world fell silent. The blade absorbed all the energy; everyone saw countless streams of golden light surge into the Flame Blade like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea. The flames on the blade edge gradually shifted from crimson to blinding gold-white!

The mutated green python thrashed its body wildly, its emerald scales standing on end. It felt a tremor from its soul, the most primal fear of a creature facing death!

"Sever!"

Ye Xuan held the blade with both hands and delivered a simple, clean vertical chop. The moment the blade edge descended.

"Boom—!"

A golden-red blade light piercing the sky and earth burst forth from the void!

Where the blade energy passed, the lake surface automatically split into a trench dozens of meters deep. The water walls on both sides were directly vaporized by the high temperature. The moment the mutated green python's emerald body touched this blade light, there was not the slightest resistance; like flowing clouds and water, the blade light split it from head to tail in two!

The golden flames ignited at the wound instantly spread across the entire body. The massive snake body was burned to nothingness in the blink of an eye!

"Boom boom boom"

Only then did the split lake water roar back together, raising a giant wave dozens of meters high. The mist of water everywhere refracted seven-colored light under the sun, only to be evaporated into hazy fog by the residual high temperature.

The lakeside was utterly silent.

Everyone stood dumbfounded, staring at that crimson figure sheathing his blade. The Flame Dragon Armor, reflected in the moonlight and water mist, made this scene far more shocking to them than any scene from a tokusatsu drama.

Ye Xuan waved his hand casually, and the Flame Blade dissolved into a wisp of fire in the air. He shook his hand; setting aside the power of that strike for now, he had only used part of his strength to begin with, but the handle design of the Flame Blade was indeed somewhat awkward.

Even after transforming into the Flame Dragon, with the techniques for using the Flame Blade already in his mind, he still did not use it very comfortably.

He shook his head. The Flame Dragon Armor dissolved into countless points of light. Ye Xuan returned to his appearance as a young man in black clothes, then placed the fully transformed real Flame Dragon Armor summoner and the Fire Crystal in his hand into his space ring.

Only then did the crowd by the lake snap out of their daze, erupting into earth-shattering cheers. Several Tian Shu Bureau members stumbled over, their faces still bearing the trance of having survived a disaster.

"This gentleman, hmm?"

"You are..."

They hadn't seen clearly before, but now that they were close, they realized: wasn't this Ye Shen!

Ye Xuan waved his hand and walked straight toward that mother and son, still shaken from their ordeal. The little boy looked at him with eyes as bright as stars, filled with admiration.

"Big brother, are you Brother Xing Nan?"

Ye Xuan squatted down. He did not answer the boy's words; he only rubbed his head, then handed him an exquisite Flame Dragon Knight figurine and the Snow Mastiff Armor summoner.

"I give these two to you."

"Perhaps one day in the future, you too might become an Armor Summoner."

Having spoken, his figure vanished from the spot, leaving only the rising and falling exclamations by the lakeside, and the little boy holding the Flame Dragon Knight figurine and the Snow Mastiff Armor summoner.

"Can I, too, become an Armor Summoner?"

The little boy stared blankly at the two gifts in his hands. His small hand unconsciously tightened, clutching these two items tightly against his chest.

Unknowingly, a seed named "Hero" was planted in his heart.

"Hmm, you certainly can, Azhao."

His mother's voice also sounded in his ear.

Hangcheng Tian Shu Bureau, five minutes ago.

"A mutated creature has appeared in Xizi Lake. The spiritual energy fluctuation has reached Level 2.5. We need support, we need support!"

In the communicator, the voice of the squad captain stationed at Xizi Lake was urgent.

The Tian Shu Bureau monitor responded immediately:

"We have arranged nearby members to go to support. They are expected to arrive in ten minutes. Please hold on as long as possible!"

"Protect the safety of the people!"

However, only two minutes passed.

"Wait! The situation has changed!"

"An unknown powerful person has appeared at Xizi Lake. The mutated white python seems to be under control!"

A voice of shock suddenly came from the squad members over the communication channel.

The monitor paused for a moment. Before they could ask for details, a more excited voice came from the communicator again.

"Holy crap! That unknown powerful person took out the Flame Dragon Armor summoner! Could he be a holder of the Heavenly Treasures? Or the summoner of the Flame Dragon Armor?"

"Are the Armor Warriors going to appear in reality too!"

"He transformed! He really transformed! Holy crap, what a huge commotion! Can you see it? A pillar of light piercing the sky and earth, intense red light dyeing the clouds above the entire Xizi Lake red! This commotion is even bigger than when Xiangyang transformed into the Emperor Armor!"

"Is this the power possessed by the Flame Dragon Armor in reality? No, it should also be because this powerful person himself is very strong!"

"The light has dissipated. Flame Dragon Knight, it really is Flame Dragon Knight. Holy crap, this red color, it's so damn cool!"

"If Flame Dragon is this cool, I really dare not imagine how cool the Emperor can be!"

"Damn! Did you see it? I'm really too excited!"

In the communication channel, the team member's voice was nearly cracking, and the monitor could completely understand his emotions; even he himself was a bit stunned.

Flame Dragon Armor? This thing can actually appear in reality?

It wasn't that he didn't believe it, but the problem was, didn't summoning the Flame Dragon Armor depend on bloodline? Could people in reality possess Five Elements bloodlines?

"Calm down! Report the specific situation!"

He forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, wanting the other party to regain his composure as well.

But the person on the other end of the communicator had already completely lost control.

"That mutated white python was instantly killed! Directly burned to ash!"

"He just touched it, yet it was so damn powerful! How many degrees must that flame be to be this fierce!"

"Wait! There's another green python in the lake! Judging by its size, it seems even larger than that white one."

"He's summoning the Flame Blade; he's going to use the Demon-Sealing Slash!"

"Holy crap! This slash—"

"So freaking cool!!!"

Monitor: "."

If you can't report properly, then don't report at all! Are you providing commentary for me here?
