Chapter 272: The Appearance of the Spirit Flame

After being attacked by Mu Lingxi and Jiang Xuan.

The magma behemoth had no choice but to draw upon its power once more, reviving itself.

A scorching aura surged once again from its magma body, which had been almost completely dormant and turned into cold stone.

The stone melted, transforming back into fiery red magma.

Those giant eyes, which had lost their luster and turned into stone orbs, lit up again, revealing a look of fury.

"Roar~"

No sooner had the magma behemoth revived than it erupted with a massive roar.

The sound wave swept out like a hurricane, forcing both Mu Lingxi and Jiang Xuan to retreat.

"Lingxi Fairy, my injuries have not yet healed; I cannot confront it head-on."

Jiang Xuan looked up at the mountain-like body of the magma behemoth, then turned to look at Mu Lingxi with a grave expression.

"It's fine, I have already recovered."

"I will take the lead; you just need to provide support from the side."

Mu Lingxi nodded.

As soon as the words fell, she charged forward again.

Hearing Mu Lingxi's words, Jiang Xuan was stunned.

Her Taiyin Spirit Body had a significant bonus to the recovery of Spiritual Power and injuries, making her recovery ability far stronger than that of ordinary Cultivators.

Mu Lingxi had not been injured any less than her earlier, yet she had recovered even faster than her!

This recovery ability was simply astonishing.

She looked at the backs of the three Mu Lingxis, her expression shifting.

Could it be...

Related to her peculiar method of creating clones?

This thought flashed through her mind and vanished.

Now was not the time to ponder such things, so she did not continue to investigate.

Her figure flickered as she gave chase.

Together with Mu Lingxi, she began a great battle against the magma behemoth.

Wang Yuyao, Su Yutong, Xing Li, and Yang Wanxin were weaker in strength and could not participate in a battle of this level.

They could only watch the battle from outside the battlefield, staying on guard against the surroundings.

Inside the magma behemoth.

Blue Flame surged to the heavens, magma churned, and the earth crumbled.

The intense battle had already lasted for a full half-day and still had not ceased.

Boom~

At a certain moment, Qingcheng was sent flying backward out of the swarm of Blue Flame fire beasts.

Her face was pale, and a streak of crimson blood hung from the corner of her mouth.

Looking at the swarm of Blue Flame fire beasts charging over again, she felt a sense of despair in her heart.

These Blue Flame fire beasts were simply acting like rogues.

No matter how many times they were killed, they could draw power from the magma beneath the ground to revive.

The battle had lasted until now, yet these Blue Flame fire beasts had not suffered any losses; on the contrary, they were all lively and showed no signs of exhaustion.

It was she, instead, whose Spiritual Power had been more than half consumed.

If this continued, she would sooner or later be exhausted to death here.

But...

The speed of these monsters was too fast, and she found it difficult to escape.

Today had become a situation of certain death.

But giving up and waiting for death was not her style!

Her weary eyes became sharp once again.

Just as she was preparing to disregard everything and erupt with her power to fight the Blue Flame fire beast swarm to the death.

The offensive of these Blue Flame fire beasts suddenly paused.

Then, they abandoned her and charged in one direction in unison, appearing to be very anxious.

Seeing this scene, Qingcheng's gaze flickered.

That direction...

Was the direction that bastard Wang Jianqiang had fled in!

What had he done?

How could he have provoked such great hatred from the Blue Flame fire beasts?

Could it be...

Thinking of a certain possibility, she gritted her teeth and did not take the opportunity to hide, but instead chased after the Blue Flame fire beast swarm.

"Hahaha, it really is full of twists and turns."

"I've finally caught you, you bastard."

In a stone cave where Blue Flame was rising, Wang Jianqiang was looking coldly toward the center of the cave.

There, a palm-sized deep blue flame was floating in mid-air.

It is different from the slightly illusory light blue flames all around.

This cluster of deep blue flame is extremely condensed, just like a mass of deep blue liquid, constantly flowing and wriggling.

This flame is precisely the Spirit Flame he intends to capture on this trip.

It is also the power core of the Magma Giant Beast.

This Spirit Flame has already developed high intelligence.

It not only understands some simple tactics but also knows how to actively avoid enemies.

If not for possessing an overwhelming advantage in combat power, an ordinary Cultivator, once swallowed into the belly of the Magma Giant Beast, would likely be trapped here even if they were not killed by the immortal Blue Flame Fire Beast, waiting until their Spiritual Power was exhausted to be consumed by the high temperature filling this world.

However, Wang Jianqiang is not among them.

Compared to the Magma Giant Beast, although he does not have overwhelming power, his physique is formidable and his stamina is long-lasting.

It is not easy for this Spirit Flame to rely on the Blue Flame Fire Beast and the harsh environment here to wear him to death.

Furthermore...

Relying on his Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze, he can easily see through everything here and lock onto the location of the Spirit Flame.

While Qingcheng was fighting the swarm of Blue Flame Fire Beasts, he tracked it all the way.

Not long ago, he even almost captured this Spirit Flame.

It is a pity.

After sensing the crisis, this Spirit Flame directly withdrew the power of the Magma Giant Beast, causing its might to surge.

Under the sudden eruption.

He was caught off guard, allowing it to successfully escape.

Now that he is fully prepared, he will certainly capture it in one fell swoop.

The Spirit Flame also seems to understand that the person before it possesses a special ability to locate it.

It simply stops fleeing.

This place is exactly what it specially chose as the battlefield for the decisive battle against the enemy before it.

The deep blue flame, like flowing water, jumps lightly.

Inside the stone cave, it is as if a breeze has blown.

The light blue flames within the cave seem to be under control, all gathering toward the Spirit Flame in mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, the Spirit Flame disappears.

Replacing it is a fire beast.

The size of this fire beast is comparable to an ordinary Blue Flame Fire Beast, but its color is even deeper.

And its body is not composed of illusory flames, but is cast from blue crystal formed by extremely compressed blue flames.

As soon as it appears.

The temperature inside the stone cave, which was already higher than other areas, soars again.

To resist this suddenly climbing high temperature, Wang Jianqiang has to push his Spirit Pattern Power to the limit.

Swish!

After the Blue Crystal Fire Beast appears, it does not hesitate in the slightest and charges directly at Wang Jianqiang.

In a flash of blue light, it has already appeared at Wang Jianqiang's side.

Its sharp claws dance, setting off a burst of rapid and short air-exploding sounds.

Wang Jianqiang clenches his right fist.

A fist that looks like it was cast from gold is swung out.

Boom!

Amidst an explosive sound.

He is knocked back more than ten zhang, steadying his body.

He looks at the Blue Crystal Fire Beast opposite, which also retreated about a dozen zhang and is completely unscathed, then raises his fist again.

Whether it is the Magma Giant Beast or the Blue Flame Fire Beast, they are all powers branched off from the Spirit Flame here.

But even though the power is split into three parts, it is still able to erupt with such powerful strength.

This Spirit Flame seems to be exaggeratedly strong!

Swish!

Amidst a sound of piercing through the air.

A blue shadow streaks by.

The Blue Crystal Fire Beast attacks again.

Wang Jianqiang swings his fists and begins a great battle with the Blue Crystal Fire Beast.

His fists are like they were poured from gilded gold; his movements are imposing, open and bold.

The Blue Crystal Fire Beast, after all, has limited intelligence and is far inferior to him in combat techniques.

After a short moment of exchanging blows, it is completely suppressed by him.

Being struck by several consecutive punches from him, several cracks appear on its body that looks like it was cast from blue crystal.

Roar~

Just at this moment, a beast roar suddenly comes from afar.

Wang Jianqiang's expression tightens, and he looks over with his peripheral vision.

Over a hundred blue figures appear in his field of vision.

It is that group of Blue Flame Fire Beasts!

Looking at the group of Blue Flame Fire Beasts rapidly approaching, Wang Jianqiang's face sinks.

These Blue Flame fire beasts are all manifestations of the power dispersed by the Spirit Flame.

Once they return, the power of the Spirit Flame will surge.

By then, it will become even harder to deal with!

Suddenly.

He discovered a figure behind the Blue Flame fire beasts.

It is her!

To think she did not take the opportunity to hide; she is not entirely stupid after all.

His eyes lit up, and his voice carried far into the distance.

"Stop these Blue Flame fire beasts, do not let them get close to here!"
