Chapter 267: The Power of the Fire Vein

Su Ba also seems to know that he's being a crow's mouth.

So, when dealing with this fire spirit, he puts extra effort into it!

Moreover, that little fire spirit just instantly killed him once earlier; if it weren't for the Survival Skill, Su Ba would already have revived outside the Dungeon.

After the Yin-Yang Five Thunder Talisman, Su Ba seamlessly threw a Binding Talisman.

Puff~

Hit!

The little fire spirit's size is too small; the red runes formed by the Binding Talisman interweave over its body, immobilizing it.

And after the little fire spirit realized it couldn't move, it immediately repeated the same trick.

Puff~

The Fireball dissipated instantly; those subsidiary runes vanished as they lost their target.

Ugh~

Then, in the adjacent spot, the little fire spirit's body reappeared.

Su Sheng is completely baffled; what the heck is this disgusting thing, can't be killed, can't be trapped, yet deals high damage.

Totally stunned~

Whew~

After reappearing, the little fire spirit glared at Su Ba; the previous attacks were basically launched by Su Ba, although Su Sheng also shattered its body once, Su Ba shattered it several times and even tried to trap it.

Though no Hate Value was seen, the little fire spirit holds a grudge against Su Ba.

A scorching fire line spewed straight toward Su Ba.

This time Su Ba couldn't dodge; the Survival Skill is already on cooldown.

Yet Su Ba still calmly tossed the sigils, showing no intention to dodge.

It's not that he can withstand the fire line, but… his son Su Sheng can.

Swish~

Su Sheng appeared before Su Ba, raising a Dragon Scale Shield.

Defensive Stance!

The reason Su Ba didn't dodge is because Su Sheng was very close to him.

When Su Ba struck, Su Sheng had already closed in on him.

Though no Hate Value, according to the little fire spirit's nature it would definitely attack its own dad; the facts prove Su Sheng wasn't wrong.

Puff~

The Dragon Scale Shield solidly blocked the entire fire line.

-4477

Massive damage jumped out.

Su Sheng felt a tingling on his scalp.

Even with such high defense and the damage reduction from Defensive Stance, he still took over four thousand damage.

Fortunately, this Xiao Jia Huo's attack frequency isn't fast.

Whoosh~

Lin Huan's arrows also shot out in lines, but the damage was negligible.

"Hold it back, others don't need to attack for now; let me and dad keep it occupied."

Su Sheng said.

As long as this little Fireball doesn't disturb the Dwarves' forging, it's fine.

This little Fireball can't kill, but Su Sheng also noticed its attack frequency is low, and as long as its body is shattered, it can be delayed longer.

It takes about four or five seconds for it to coalesce once.

Shield Rush!

By now the basic regular skills have basically cooled down.

Su Sheng rushed toward the Xiao Jia Huo and performed a Shield Strike.

Boom!

The little fire spirit's body was shattered again.

When its body re‑coalesces, four or five seconds have passed.

Then Dad's Yin-Yang Singularity Skill fired again.

If it were another normal‑sized BOSS, using the BOSS template's resistance, it could easily ignore the suction of the Yin-Yang Singularity.

But this little fire spirit is too small, essentially a ball of fire that a Shield Strike can shatter, so it cannot resist the suction of the Yin-Yang Singularity at all.

Swish~

The little fire spirit's body was pulled by the suction of the Yin-Yang Singularity into a long fire line, similar to its previous fire line attack.

Then the little fire spirit was entirely sucked into the tangled Yin-Yang Fish "Singularity".

The little fire spirit moved oddly within the Singularity, then realized it couldn't get out.

Afterwards the Fireball exploded again and vanished instantly.

However, making Su Sheng want to laugh, the little fire spirit seems not very smart; its re‑coalesced body didn't leave the gravitational pull of the Yin-Yang Singularity.

The just‑coalesced little Fireball was again pulled by gravity into a fire line.

When the Xiao Jia Huo realized it reappeared at the core of the Yin-Yang Singularity, it almost went berserk.

Boom!

Boom!

The little fireball exploded again.

But there was also a commotion from the side—the central location, where the dwarves were forging weapons, also exploded.

However, it was that Demon Energy skywell that exploded, and scorching flames surged out from the Demon Energy skywell.

The flames almost entirely enveloped the Demon Energy skywell, and the blazing red fire reflected the faces of the Iron Hammer Dwarves on the side into red.

Su Sheng saw the scene and couldn't help but become nervous, fearing that some mishap might occur.

"Ha ha, well done! I was just complaining that the temperature wasn't sufficient; melting this Thunder Light mithril is rather difficult!"

"You've angered that little fellow; it has activated the fire vein power beneath the central furnace of Chi Yan City!"

The Iron Hammer Dwarf's voice came.

Hearing that, Su Sheng let out a sigh of relief; this seemed to be a good thing after all.

That's good.

Su Sheng let out a sigh of relief.

"But from now on you all must be careful."

However, the Iron Hammer Dwarf's next words dampened Su Sheng's mood.

"Each central furnace is built upon an underground fire vein; without a fire vein underground, a central furnace cannot be constructed."

"And the flame of the central furnace itself draws firepower from the underground fire vein for forging."

"The birth of that little fellow also depends on the underground fire vein power; if the central furnace of Chi Yan City is that little fellow's mother, then the underground fire vein is its father."

"Now it has activated the underground fire vein power, likely gaining a boost in strength; you should take note."

The Iron Hammer Dwarf swung the hammer in his hand while reminding them, and it seemed the scorching temperature of the flame had no effect on him.

Huh?

Su Sheng was stunned for a moment; that already hard-to-handle little fellow was getting stronger?

Boom!

At that moment, the Yin-Yang singularity dissipated.

At the same time, a burning flame appeared on the side.

After the flame faded, a flame-shaped silhouette about 1.3–1.4 meters tall appeared at the original spot.

Is this a fire spirit?

Su Sheng watched the reappearing flame silhouette and couldn't help but click his tongue.

At this moment, the reappeared little fellow, though still composed of flame, now had arms, legs, and a head, unmistakably resembling a little flame dwarf.

It's not hard to understand; this is the Dwarves' domain, and the little fellow had previously interacted most with Dwarves, so it naturally shaped itself after their form.

Snap!

Black-and-white dual-colored sigils exploded on the head of the little fire spirit... now it should be called a little fire person.

Yin-Yang Force Field, slow down!

But the little fire person ignored the Yin-Yang Force Field's slowdown and punched into the void directly...
