Main Text Chapter 449: The Tragic Fire Domain God

However, the Flame Lord can only exist for five minutes; once it disappears, he has to rely on his own honest fighting.

Xiao Feng had to speed up the pace; as soon as the newly risen Flame Demon got up, he immediately had the Flame Lord lunge forward, stretching out a big hand and pressing it directly onto the floor.

Although the Upper God–level Fire Domain God may have slightly higher energy quality than the Flame Lord, it is completely inferior in total Divine Source and physical size.

Moreover, it is almost a pure physical monster; once caught, it loses all ability to resist.

Once controlled, it cannot break free in a short time and can only await Xiao Feng's 'execution'.

If it were a true Upper God, this would be impossible; even if controlled, it would quickly find a way to escape and rid itself of danger.

This monster has few skills; although its template is strong, it ultimately cannot compare to a real person.

The Transcendent Ice Arrow strikes every five seconds, each hit being an instant kill.

The stage refresh speed is very fast, faster than before, almost clearing a layer every ten seconds.

Those outside the Myriad Heavens Tower were dumbfounded; those unaware even thought the difficulty after floor 450 was simpler than before.

Soon, Xiao Feng's challenge progress reached floor 481, and the monsters' attributes grew ever stronger.

The Flame Lord seized the Flame Demon boss, which let out an angry low roar and used the area skill 'Flame Prison Technique', turning the surrounding kilometer into a sea of fire.

Unfortunately, Xiao Feng is also fire‑immune like it; he not only loses no HP, but gains +5000, +5000 HP recovery.

He threw an Ice Arrow, and the boss again drank hatred and shattered.

Whoosh~

However, at this moment the Flame Lord's summoning time ended, turning into a pile of huge stones that rolled down and quickly faded away.

"Roar~~"

The thirty‑second Flame Demon rose, letting out a loud howl, as if mocking Xiao Feng for having lost his winning means.

It performed a jumping chop, its massive 40‑meter body surging forward like a collapsing mountain.

Xiao Feng retreated using Windriding, then threw an Ice Arrow.

Bang!

Unexpectedly, the Fire Domain God's axe swing shattered the Ice Arrow, causing no damage.

"Looks like I still have to call the worker..."

Xiao Feng felt a bit depressed; while holding his shield, he chanted for one second and summoned Worker No. 2, the Storm Elemental.

The 140‑meter Storm Elemental, with its semi‑solid, semi‑ethereal hands, tried to suppress the Fire Domain God, but the effect was not ideal.

A demigod‑quality summon is somewhat lacking against a peak Upper God; even with high HP and attack, it still struggles to bear the burden.

On the other hand, the wind‑system magic it released dealt considerable damage.

Xiao Feng couldn't stand still to output; he could only rely on himself.

The Fire Domain God chased him, swinging its great axe; the blow nearly cracked the floor, and a sweep skill left a three‑ to four‑hundred‑meter‑long, ten‑plus‑meter‑wide trench filled with lava.

If struck, even with a shield preventing HP loss, he would be forced into a passive state, taking consecutive hits and falling into danger.

However, Xiao Feng's reaction speed is still quick; now with Windriding he can hover in the air, making it hard for the boss to kill him.

Seeing the boss's jumping chop miss, he seized the chance to fire an Ice Arrow from behind, securing another victory.

Outside, the alien players noticed that his time to clear floor 482 exceeded the combined time of the previous several floors, and began to suspect he might be nearing his limit.

Xiao Feng, however, felt nothing special.

Without the Flame Lord's help, at most it's a bit troublesome, but not unbeatable.

Just a few tens of billions of HP—killing it is a breeze!

Floor 483, 484, 485…

He faced the boss at a steady pace, his defensive magic relaying nonstop, and he hardly lost any HP at all.

And after seizing an opportunity, a single Transcendent Ice Arrow could instantly kill the Upper God boss at full health.

The ease of it seems hardly different from the earlier one‑ or two‑hundred‑floor stages.

Before he knew it, he had reached floor 490.

The Flame Lord's cooldown was up; without hesitation, he immediately cast a summoning spell.

A 120‑meter‑tall Flame Lord stepped out of the portal.

The days of the Flame Demon being beaten began again…

Smack

Smack

Smack

Ice Arrows came one after another; each Flame Demon that appeared died instantly, unable to resist under the Flame Lord's 'big brother' suppression.

The key is that they respawn very quickly; the Myriad Heavens Tower's mechanism originally meant for fatigue and attrition battles became a great aid for Xiao Feng to 'cherish the Flame Lord's existence time'.

Between floors there is almost no pause; as soon as one Fire Domain God is killed, another climbs up and throws itself in.

Just over a minute later, the floor‑500 boss crawled out of the ground.

Xiao Feng glanced at the information.

【Fire Domain God】

Level: 500 (Upper God)

HP: 18 billion/18 billion

Divine Source: 900,000

Divine Power Resistance: 450,000

Skills: Flame Prison Slash, Flame Demon Fist, Fire God Earth‑Splitting Slash, Blazing Form, Flame Prison Technique

Note: Fire Resistance 100%, Damage Reduction 65%

These stats are incredibly explosive, attack power 90 million, defense 45 million; without some real ability, you can't even budge it.

However, Xiao Feng saw that it was still only an Upper God, not a Chief God, and relaxed.

"Big Fire Person, I'll press you to death!" Xiao Feng laughed and casually tossed two small skills over.

Lightning Arrow and Wind Blade Technique struck the boss, dealing negligible damage—the former just over 100 million, the latter only a few tens of millions, pitifully low.

However, the true damage is still decent; combined, it's about 800-900 million, enough to take out two low-level lesser gods.

"Roar!"

The Flame Monarch let out a low growl in response, its huge left and right hands blocking the path of the Level 500 Fire Realm God, then it fiercely embraced.

Fire Realm God: ……

The raised battleaxe was about to come down, but it was frozen in midair.

Energy burst from its body, attempting to shake off the Flame Monarch.

Instances of damage over 100 million kept popping up, but the Flame Monarch, with tens of trillions of HP, didn't even notice.

"Ice Arrow!"

Xiao Feng flashed closer, and the Ice Arrow was unleashed directly in the face.

With a puff, a critical damage number popped up—just over 17 billion—and it directly carried away this Level 500 gatekeeper.

【Congratulations on passing the 0500-layer challenge!】

【You gained 500 challenge points!】

【You obtained 1 Superior Divine Artifact!】

【Congratulations on passing the 500th layer of the Myriad Heavens Tower challenge! You obtained the privilege of free teleportation to the Myriad Heavens Tower! Using the Myriad Heavens Teleport Privilege Token allows direct teleportation to the Myriad Heavens Tower!】

【Ding~ Since your total time to clear layers 450-500 is under 1 hour, the Myriad Heavens Tower's hidden reward is triggered—the Mysterious Shop!】

After breaking through the 500th-level major gate, Xiao Feng's rank remained third, but he still received considerable rewards.

The privilege of free teleportation to the Myriad Heavens Tower is already impressive—you can come anytime, and you no longer need to worry about not finding this place.

What's more, there's also 1 Superior Divine Artifact and the Mysterious Shop.

"It seems that after layer 450, as long as you clear it quickly enough, a Mysterious Shop will appear." Xiao Feng thought.

He had cleared the earlier layers quickly before, but back then there was no such extra reward.

The Mysterious Shop opened, and this time it still offered three items.

Two of them are very cheap, but one is extremely expensive!
