Chapter 1040

In an instant, Xu Que had directly mastered the Extraordinary Fires ranked tenth through seventh!

He already possessed the sixth-ranked Eight Desolations Destruction Flame, so at this very moment, Xu Que directly possessed half of the top ten on the Extraordinary Fire Ranking. However, starting from the fifth-ranked Life Spirit Flame, the price of each Extraordinary Fire became quite high.

For example, the fifth-ranked Life Spirit Flame reached 50,000 Acting Cool Points and was even in an "unavailable" state.

According to the system description, this flame is not famous for its destructive power, but for being filled with majestic life force. After the flame spreads, if you throw medicinal seeds into it, the seeds will rapidly sprout and grow. In other words, with this Extraordinary Fire, you basically don't need to consider searching for medicinal materials; as long as you have enough seeds, you can obtain the desired medicinal materials endlessly. The key is that this Extraordinary Fire can also increase life force and extend one's lifespan.

But correspondingly, to master it, the cultivator's own lifespan needs to be sufficiently powerful. However, the system currently judges that Xu Que's lifespan is not enough to master this Extraordinary Fire, which is why it displays the reason as "unavailable."

But starting from the fourth-ranked "Golden Emperor Incinerating Heaven Flame" and above, several types of flames were displayed as unavailable without explaining the reason, which made Xu Que somewhat unhappy.

But there was no time to investigate now, and he couldn't be bothered to ask. Anyway, the five Extraordinary Fires from tenth to sixth were already in hand, and he believed that the power of the fire lotus released after fusion would be sufficiently massive!

"Boom!"

Soon, Xu Que's true body swept across the sky, the commotion caused by the Wind Fire Wheels being incomparably huge.

Liu Hualong was still controlling thousands of fine threads, biting tightly and pursuing Xu Que's Thunder Illusion Body and true body frantically. It looked like Xu Que was running away unilaterally, and the advantages and disadvantages were very obvious.

"Swish!"

But just at this moment, Xu Que's true body finally stopped!

Everyone in the audience was stunned.

"Stopped?"

"What's going on? Has he given up?"

"No, the killing intent on this guy suddenly became stronger!"

"His clone also suddenly entangled Liu Hualong. Could it be that he is starting to counterattack?"

Many people discussed, their faces full of surprise and astonishment, unable to imagine how Xu Que could counterattack in this situation.

This seemed to be a counterattack battle that was fundamentally impossible to complete!

"Fellow villager, I suddenly remembered a technique that can help you burn off those white armpit hairs. Do you want to see it?" Xu Que's true body stood between the clouds, his eyes filled with playfulness, looking at Liu Hualong, who was fighting with the Thunder Illusion Body, and said with a smile.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, before Liu Hualong could respond, Xu Que raised his right palm abruptly and shouted in a deep voice: "Bone Spirit Cold Fire!"

Boom!

The void in front of him suddenly stagnated, followed by a wisp of white, eerie flame sweeping out, as if freezing the surrounding air in an instant, with wisps of ice crystals falling down.

"Nine Netherworld Wind Flame!"

The next moment, the void in front of Xu Que suddenly twisted, and a bone-chilling cold swept out. A flame like a cold wind appeared out of thin air, and together with the cold air caused by the Bone Spirit Cold Fire, it instantly affected everyone present.

Everyone's expression changed, unable to believe it.

Could there really be such a flame in this world? Causing cold air would be one thing, but this cold air seemed too strong, as if it were power from heaven and earth, not something done by human power!

"Three Thousand Flame Fire!"

At this moment, as Xu Que's voice shouted out, the sky suddenly darkened, and starlight-like glimmers bloomed in front of Xu Que!

That was a flame, yet it seemed like a universe, containing three thousand stars within it, profound and mysterious.

"Red Lotus Karma Fire!"

A wisp of red flame shot out, in the shape of a lotus flower, enchanting and brilliant.

"Nine Netherworld Golden Ancestral Fire!"

A golden netherworld flame surged and rose, like an ethereal golden soul, filled with powerful high temperatures and violent aura.

"Eight Desolations Destruction Flame!"

Finally, that familiar black flame also appeared, turning into huge flame wings dozens of zhang in size, supporting and covering half the sky.

From the beginning to the appearance of the Extraordinary Fires, it was only in the blink of an eye.

Nine Netherworld Wind Flame, Three Thousand Flame Fire, Red Lotus Karma Fire, Nine Netherworld Golden Ancestral Fire, Eight Desolations Destruction Flame—five Extraordinary Fires ranked in the top ten appeared together, plus the eleventh-ranked Bone Spirit Cold Fire, a total of six Extraordinary Fires appeared in the clouds at once, suspended in front of Xu Que!

Lan Xinyue was stunned for a moment. She stared at the talisman, and the next moment, her expression changed completely.

In an instant, everyone's expression changed drastically, incomparably shocked.

"This... how is this possible?"

"Six types of flames, each one stronger than the last?"

"My god, what kind of technique is this? How can one refine so many different types of flames in one's body?"

"This is probably not a technique, but more like a Heavenly Fire born between heaven and earth!"

Many people shouted in surprise, incomparably horrified.

The power of this kind of flame truly exceeded their understanding of techniques, and even the violent power aura contained within it made everyone's scalp tingle; it fundamentally shouldn't be something a technique possesses.

Even Liu Hualong, seeing these six flames, couldn't help but tighten his expression, a flash of deep dread appearing in his eyes.

But soon, he sneered: "Ignorant ant, even if your flames are powerful, you can't do anything to my 'Peeling the Cocoon.' The power of an Immortal Technique is not something an ant like you can understand!"

After speaking, his figure suddenly stagnated, his speed suddenly skyrocketed, and carrying thousands of fine threads, he slammed into Xu Que's Thunder Illusion Body.

"Bang!"

In a loud explosion, the Thunder Illusion Body was wrapped into a cocoon by the fine threads on the spot and exploded directly.

Hiss!

Everyone in the audience gasped.

"As expected of an Immortal Technique. This kid's clone has already been solved, and the rest of his true body will be finished too!" someone shook their head and said.

"I have to say, this kid's strength and foundation combined are enough to compare to those young heavenly prides on the Xuanhuang Continent's Heavenly Cauldron List, and his ranking must be at least in the top ten!" someone sighed endlessly.

"So what if he's in the top ten? Provoking the Earth Immortal Realm, he's ultimately doomed to die!" someone sneered.

However, just at this moment, a muffled sound suddenly erupted in the clouds.

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, a majestic bolt of lightning appeared, frantically intertwining, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a human figure, blocking Liu Hualong's path again.

As the lightning slowly merged, the human-shaped lightning turned into Xu Que's appearance again, stepping on Wind Fire Wheels, holding a black staff, actually exactly the same as the previous clone.

In an instant, the whole scene fell into silence.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Liu Hualong was also confused.

What does this mean?

After finally solving the clone, this guy produced another clone in the blink of an eye?

How the hell is this possible?

Clones usually consume half or one-third of one's own strength, and what is consumed is not only True Essence, but more importantly, Dao Essence and Divine Soul. And even for the top-level clone techniques, I've never seen such a fast speed for summoning clones every time!

"Boom!"

Almost simultaneously, a loud noise erupted in the clouds again, like the roar of divine thunder, rolling and moving.

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn, and they all looked up at the source of the sound, which was Xu Que's true body.

At this moment, Xu Que's expression was grave, his Divine Soul power covering all directions, his hands raised, concentrating on controlling the six flames, slowly gathering them together.

As the six flames approached, the violence and restlessness within the flames became more intense.

Everyone's eyes widened.

"Damn!"

"What does this kid want to do?"

"Is he crazy? These six flames have completely different attributes, and their simultaneous appearance is already very unstable. He's actually letting these flames get close?"

"Isn't he afraid of suddenly exploding and blowing himself to death?"

"Crazy, this guy must be crazy!"

Many people shouted in surprise, unable to help but retreat.

Even Lan Xinyue and Lan Hetu's group suddenly received a sound transmission from Xu Que, telling them to quickly retreat a thousand miles away.

The group didn't dare to hesitate and immediately started to retreat rapidly.

At the same time, Xu Que had already gathered the six Extraordinary Fires together. Wisps of crystalline radiance burst out from between his ten fingers, blooming with dazzling white light, interweaving between the six Extraordinary Fires. Following that, Xu Que's ten fingers danced rapidly, using powerful force to frantically squeeze the six Extraordinary Fires.

"Shoo!"

"Shoo!"

"Shoo!"

With the control and squeezing of the power between Xu Que's ten fingers, the six Extraordinary Fires actually began to be squeezed into a ball slowly, the violent energy frantically restless, like a huge bomb, ready to explode at any time.

However, Xu Que's expression remained unchanged, still squeezing the six Extraordinary Fires, constantly fusing them. The violent aura suddenly became terrifying, sweeping across the entire scene.

"Damn!"

"This guy is already crazy!"

"He's going to perish together with Liu Hualong!"

"Not good, let's retreat quickly!"

Many people shouted, and their figures were also retreating.

Liu Hualong couldn't sit still anymore and roared loudly: "Ant, stop!"

"Stop your mother's paralysis!" Xu Que's Thunder Illusion Body shouted, raising the black staff and frantically smashing it toward Liu Hualong.

"You..." Liu Hualong was so angry he was about to explode. He was a dignified Earth Immortal Realm expert; even experts of the same rank would dread him, let alone a junior of a lower realm?

But now, a small cultivator of the Half-Immortal Realm like Xu Que didn't put him in his eyes at all, and now he was doing such a terrifying thing, actually wanting to create a huge explosion and perish together with him.

The key is that now he wants to retreat and doesn't want to fight Xu Que's six flames head-on, but Xu Que's clone has directly entangled him, making him unable to leave even if he wants to!

"Yun'er, quickly help me!" Liu Hualong hurriedly looked down and shouted at the beautiful woman on the ground.

However, the woman frowned slightly, and after a flash of hesitation and doubt in her eyes, she actually ignored Liu Hualong and instead took a step back.

Even while retreating, she lightly raised her jade arm to stop the others from the Sword Pavilion from coming forward to help.

This scene made many people's eyelids jump, and they were secretly shocked in their hearts.

Liu Hualong's expression changed, from astonishment to fury, and he roared: "Zhang Yun'er, what are you doing? How dare you rebel against me?"

"Brother Long, I am doing this for the sake of the Sword Pavilion. With your strength, dealing with a Half-Immortal Realm is as easy as turning over your hand. If we help, it will be bad for the reputation of the Sword Pavilion if it spreads out!" Zhang Yun'er smiled slightly.

Liu Hualong was trembling with anger: "You are courting death! Everyone in the Sword Pavilion, listen to my order: come forward to help, otherwise, you will be killed without mercy!"

"Whoever dares to help is going against me!" Zhang Yun'er immediately turned cold and shouted in a deep voice.

Everyone in the Sword Pavilion stopped their movements, looked at each other, and really no one dared to come out to help.

This situation completely exceeded the imagination of countless people. No one expected that the Sword Pavilion would have an internal strife suddenly. This Pavilion Master's wife seemed to have already controlled most of the power of the Sword Pavilion, having already eroded the interior of the Sword Pavilion, and her prestige and appeal actually exceeded Liu Hualong, the Pavilion Master!

"You... you all, good, very good, daring to rebel, I will definitely make you wish you were dead!" Liu Hualong was so angry he was fuming, roaring sternly.

Zhang Yun'er ignored him and instead shouted at Xu Que: "Little brother, feel free to attack, fight with peace of mind. Our Sword Pavilion has always advocated justice and will not intervene in this matter!"

Xu Que's true body continued to pinch the Extraordinary Fires, ignoring her.

And his Thunder Illusion Body pretended to be confused, shook his head and said: "Girl, what are you doing? I can't beat him. Don't think I'm really going to release some ultimate move. I'm just making this up to bluff people. Now I'm leaving, goodbye!"

【A thick and long chapter is delivered, the word count is close to two usual chapters!
