heat immediately saturating the air around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its form was similar to the first fire barrier they faced, but the intricate patterns within the runic formation embedded into it were far more complex than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even those in the group who weren’t masters of the Law of Fire could sense the heightened difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unease spread through them, and their gazes instinctively turned toward Elrick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Godslayer Human, ever confident, wore a slight smile as he stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This one’s a bit more advanced,” Elrick said casually, as though he were commenting on the weather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He radiated confidence as his Ego Wave extended into the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others didn’t question him; their faith in his abilities was apparent as they fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain, however, hung back, his golden eyes glowing faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Flow revealed a flicker of nervousness within Elrick-buried deeply but unmistakably present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘He’s pretending it’s easy,’ Cain thought, shaking his head slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘False bravado in a situation like this can easily lead to mistakes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hope he’s not foolish enough to rush this.’ Despite his concerns, Cain didn’t interfere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To step forward and take over would mean revealing his secret mastery over the Law of Fire, something he wasn’t ready to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, Cain focused on the runic formation from afar, mentally unraveling its chaotic energy pathways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The minutes turned into hours as Elrick painstakingly adjusted the formation, each movement of energy requiring absolute precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group watched in tense silence, knowing that even a small mistake could prove disastrous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, after over three and a half hours, Elrick completed the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The runes glowed brilliantly for a moment before the fiery wall dissipated entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That was a bit harder than I expected but still manageable,” Elrick said, his confident smile returning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group erupted into praise, their words filled with admiration for his skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your mastery of the Law of Fire is truly unparalleled, Elrick,” Mary said, her tone almost reverent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Auron and the others nodded in agreement, eager to flatter their leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain, however, remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He neither criticized nor praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t his place to stoke Elrick’s ego, nor did he feel compelled to acknowledge the effort when it was clear that Elrick’s performance had been more showmanship than efficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elrick noticed Cain’s lack of response and cast a fleeting glance his way, his smile tightening slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group pressed on, their mood slightly lighter after overcoming the challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the respite didn’t last long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another wall of fire soon appeared, this one demanding mastery over Fire Star Power instead of the Law of Fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain stepped forward without hesitation, his movements calm and deliberate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Elrick, he made no grand declarations or attempts to garner attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply extended his Ego Wave into the runic formation and began his work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chaotic patterns of energy within the formation came into focus as Cain’s mind tuned to the Fire Star Power radiating through the pathways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes glowed with a fiery brilliance as he carefully arranged the energy flows, each adjustment guided by his deep instinctual understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time the final pathway was aligned and the wall disappeared, less than an hour had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group, including Elrick, couldn’t help but notice how quickly and efficiently Cain had completed the task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mary, Auron, and the others exchanged complicated glances, their expressions a mix of respect and envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elrick clenched his fists, his frustration evident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he prided himself on his mastery of fire principles, Cain’s effortless success was a stark reminder that he wasn’t as unrivaled as he liked to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain sighed internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tension within the group was growing, fueled by greed, arrogance, and wounded pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite their status as Divine Transcendence Masters, their behavior was shaped by the cutthroat culture of the Gu Sect, where competition often trumped cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘This dynamic is only going to get worse,’ Cain thought grimly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he wasn’t about to waste time trying to mediate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their survival wasn’t his responsibility-it was up to each of them to adapt or falter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group moved forward, their unease growing with every step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another fiery wall soon appeared, but this one was vastly more intricate than the previous formations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain frowned as he studied the runes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The complexity of the formation was staggering, its chaotic patterns demanding an almost obsessive level of precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘It’s possible to complete this,’ Cain thought, ‘but every move has to be deliberate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One mistake could…’ His thought trailed off as Elrick stepped forward, his demeanor rigid with determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Godslayer Human’s gaze burned coldly as he extended his Ego Wave into the formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cain’s frown deepened as he watched Elrick’s movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was working faster than before, each adjustment teetering on the edge of recklessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘He’s trying to show off again,’ Cain realized, a wave of unease washing over him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elrick’s hand faltered, his focus wavering for a fraction of a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was all it took.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Wait!’ Cain shouted in his mind as he saw the man about to make a mistake but held his tongue aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Revealing his knowledge of the Law of Fire would draw unwanted attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“RUMBLE!!” Elrick’s eyes widened in panic as he realized his mistake, but it was too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fiery wall shook as the runic formation unraveled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, it seemed like the situation might stabilize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The formation reset itself to its original state as if granting them another chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relief briefly flickered in the group’s expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then the statues lining the corridor stirred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes ignited with flames, and cracks spread across their stony bodies as overwhelming energy surged through them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, they turned their gaze toward the group, radiating an aura of pure killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“ROOOOAAARRRRRR!” The statues roared as they sprang to life, lunging toward the group with terrifying speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Finish the formation!” Cain shouted, his energy exploding outward as he moved to intercept the statues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His frustration with Elrick was evident, but there was no time for reprimands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had to survive first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CREATORS’
