Chapter 634: The Fire Holy Sword
"Roar—" A massive lava beast lunged out from the gate, opening its maw to pounce toward Chen Jing, who was battling a Rock Giant.
Chen Jing's expression turned stern, her hands suffused with the power of the stars, preparing to block the lava beast's attack with all her might.
Suddenly, a long sword wrapped in a gale arrived, piercing through the air and slamming heavily into the lava beast, blasting it away. At the same time, the long sword rebounded from the force and landed before Chen Jing.
Chen Jing instinctively drew the Wind Holy Sword and swept it forward; the Rock Giant before her was instantly sliced in two by the blade, which was enveloped in powerful winds.
On the other side, a black mist suddenly rose around Su Wanyue. After the Rock Giants surrounding her touched the black mist, the rocks on their bodies began to weather rapidly, eventually crumbling into a pile of debris.
Watching the two swords Lingyun had suddenly thrown, the Great Elf Envoy beside Andiya could not help but widen her eyes: "Your Highness High Priest, what were those two swords just now?"
"It is exactly as you think." Andiya waved the scepter in her hand, her figure flickering toward the direction of the gate. "Stop looking, it is time for us to act!"
"Hey, big guy, your opponent is me!"
Just as the lava beast blasted away by the Wind Holy Sword stood up, Dewalin, holding thunder, appeared before it.
"Thunder Domain!"
Sensing the dangerous aura radiating from this lava beast, Dewalin knew that if the two of them fought here, it would inevitably be a huge crisis for the Dwarfs and Spirits present. Without any hesitation, he directly expanded his domain, enveloping it inside.
"Boom—"
Monstrous flames spewed out from the gate. Andiya, who had flashed to the front of the gate, waved her hand, and layers upon layers of Magic Arrays unfolded before her, blocking the sky-filling flames.
A fire man two meters tall stepped out from the gate. The moment this fire man appeared, everyone in the plaza felt the air become scorching hot. Behind the fire man, there was another fire man, slightly shorter, also spewing a scorching aura from his body.
"Elf Sanctuary!"
The Elf Sanctuary expanded, instantly sweeping the fire man, who had not yet recovered his senses, inside.
The Great Elf Envoy behind Andiya also seized the opportunity, expanding her Elf Domain to take in the other fire man.
The three guardian beasts condensed from Demon Qi were dragged into the Domain Space, unable to emerge for the time being. Lingyun seized the opportunity and, before the Rock Giants on the periphery could react, passed through the gate and entered the Magma World.
"Is this place the Magma World unique to the Hill Clan?" Lingyun hovered in mid-air, gazing at this scorching world.
The Magma World, which should have been crimson, was covered in a layer of dark purple at this moment. Demon Qi whistled and swirled here, occasionally entangling together to condense into a Magic Core that fell into the magma.
The Magic Core that fell into the magma began to absorb the surrounding lava, then drifted to the shore and slowly fused with the stones on the bank. Once the magma and these special rocks completely merged into one, a Rock Giant would appear.
The moment Lingyun appeared in the Magma World, the entire Magma World suddenly rioted. Countless semi-finished Rock Giants burst out from the ground and swarmed toward Lingyun's direction.
"Just a bunch of semi-finished products, and you dare to be arrogant in front of me?" Lingyun smiled coldly, his hands forming seals, and six pairs of light wings slowly spread out from behind him.
"Purification Light!"
Golden light radiated from around Lingyun. The Rock Giants shrouded by the Purification Light let out shrill roars. The Demon Qi on their bodies dissipated rapidly, and even the Magic Cores hidden within the rocks were pierced by the Purification Light, completely turning into nothingness.
Lingyun clapped his hands, and the Purification Light on his body slowly dissipated. He looked toward the center of the Magma World, where several powerful auras existed.
With a light flap of the six pairs of light wings on his back, Lingyun's figure instantly turned into a stream of light, flying toward the center of the Magma World.
Before long, Lingyun appeared above a patch of boiling magma. The magma in this area was different from the magma elsewhere; not only was it hotter, but its color also carried a faint dark purple.
Most eye-catching of all was a figure kneeling on one knee above this magma, holding a sharp great axe in its hand.
However, this figure was not a living person, but a suit of armor. This armor was one of the most powerful Sacred Gears of the Dwarf Race, named Rock. Every component of this armor, when disassembled, was a Sacred Gear; when multiple Sacred Gears were combined, it could be considered the most powerful defensive Sacred Gear on the Continent.
The great axe in the armor's hand was also not simple. This great axe was named Heaven-Splitting, a weapon forged by the lifeblood of several generations of the most outstanding Dwarf Kings. During the Millennium Holy War, if the contemporary Dwarf King had not been killed by the Lord of the Demon World, and if the new generation of Dwarf King had not been unable to fully unleash the power of this Sacred Gear, the greatest enemy of the Lord of the Demon World should have been the Dwarf King. It could be said that this Heaven-Splitting was more powerful than any single Holy Sword.
The armor stood on the magma, and beneath its feet was a large Magic Array, suppressing the constantly overflowing Demon Qi. However, this Magic Array was clearly ineffective; it had not been able to suppress all the Demon Qi, instead allowing it to seep out bit by bit.
"It is right beneath here."
The light wings around Lingyun disappeared, and a Protective Qi Shield rose up around him. Lingyun leaped and jumped into the magma.
After sinking in the magma for a while, a patch of blue light appeared before Lingyun. Looking closely, these blue lights were actually composed of pure blue flames. Within the blue flames, dark purple Demon Qi constantly darted about, and only after being weakened layer by layer by the blue flames did it rush out of that fire domain and enter the magma.
Lingyun charged directly into this fire domain. Inside the fire domain stood a stone pillar, and at the top of the stone pillar, Lingyun saw what he wanted to see: a long sword flowing with flames. The long sword was entwined with chains condensed from blue flames, the ends of which disappeared into the blue fire domain.
"Long time no see, Fire Holy Sword!"
Lingyun landed on the stone pillar and spoke softly.
The moment Lingyun spoke, a clear and beautiful sword hum emanated from the Fire Holy Sword, and the chains entwined around the sword body shattered instantly. The Fire Holy Sword rose from the ground and landed before Lingyun.
Lingyun reached out and grasped the Fire Holy Sword, and a majestic aura swept out from his body. Light flowed on the Fire Holy Sword, and not a trace of Demon Qi leaked from the sword body anymore.
