Chapter 508: Killing the Fire Demon (2/2)
Xiao Chen removed the blue strip of cloth on his forehead. The scarlet throne flickered and the Lunar True Flame came out from his forehead.
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on the sea and with a thought, the egg-sized Lunar True Flame floated above his head.
“Break!”
Xiao Chen shouted and countless tiny holes appeared on the Essence s.h.i.+eld. Clumps of flames quickly rushed in.
The Lunar True Flame slowly drew in all the flames, swallowing them up. The two kinds of flames were on different scales. The moment the Demon’s flames came in contact with the pale white Yin-attributed flame, they were instantly absorbed.
Time pa.s.sed slowly. The dancing flame on the Fire Demon had already shrunk to half its original size. However, the Demon sensed that Xiao Chen’s lifeforce was still strong.
“Why is it like that? Given the human’s standard of cultivation, even if he were a half-step Martial Monarch, he should have exhausted all his Essence by now.”
The Fire Demon felt that something was wrong. Suspicions appeared in its mind but it did not know what was wrong.
“I cannot exhaust too much of my Origin Flame. I will have to check if he is dead or alive in another seven or eight minutes.”
After seven or eight minutes, everything was still the same.
Due to the fierce flames, the rising scarlet steam had dyed the dark clouds above red. However, Xiao Chen’s lifeforce still flourished.
The flame on the Fire Demon’s head shrank further. A murderous intent flashed on its face. Then, it closed its eyes and the flames around Xiao Chen faded away.
When all the flames disappeared, the Fire Demon nearly vomited blood when it saw the scene before it.
Xiao Chen was seated with his eyes closed and a pale white flame was refining all the flames it absorbed.
“Thank you for your Yin-attributed flame.” Xiao Chen revealed a faint smile when he opened his eyes.
The True Lunar Flame had not changed much. However, the grain-sized Origin Flame within it had grown larger, having benefited significantly.
The Fire Demon revealed rage on its face as it shouted in a shrill voice, “Despicable human! Unexpectedly, you used my Origin Flame to cultivate. Watch as I crack open your head and extract your Origin Flame!”
“Xiu!”
The Lunar True Flame returned to Xiao Chen’s forehead. Then, he got up and said indifferently, “Do you think you can do that?”
The Fire Demon did not say anymore. The flame on its head danced wildly and the surrounding temperature rose significantly.
The Fire Demon made a sweeping motion with its palm in the direction of Xiao Chen and a fire tornado appeared on the water, heading for him.
“Burning the Heavens!”
Xiao Chen did not move from his original spot. He burned his Vital Qi and azure clouds churned in the sky. Then, a dragon fist fell from the sky. The dragon fist seemed to contain boundless energy; it scattered the fire tornado instantly.
“Sou! Sou! Sou!”
Sparks filled the air as the Fire Demon’s hands danced. The instant the fire tornado scattered, the sparks gathered and formed three small tornadoes and continued on.
“Claw!”
Xiao Chen changed his fist into a claw. The burning azure clouds in the sky turned into a huge dragon claw and shredded the three fire tornadoes.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The berserk flames gave no indication of stopping. After being shredded, they reformed again and headed for Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not show any fear. He continued to burn his Vital Qi and used the Dragon Claw Fist’s third move, constantly switching between the fist and claw.
No matter how strong your flames are or how they change, I will remain unmoved. As I switch between a fist and a claw, I will shatter them all.
Under the Fire Demon’s control, the flames took all sorts of forms; it seemed adept at manipulating the flames.
However, Xiao Chen remained unmoved. He used pure power to break them and overwhelm the Fire Demon. Regardless of what tricks it used, he would clash head-on.
When Xiao Chen saw that the flame on the Fire Demon’s head was down to the size of a fist, his pupils contracted. It was time.
Xiao Chen stopped burning Vital Qi and leaped over. He used the Berserk Dragon Fist to attack from the top.
“Roar!”
The dragon roar resounded everywhere as the dragon head scattered the flames and fell downwards together with them.
The Fire Demon revealed a horrified expression. Then, it made a decision. Suddenly, it opened its mouth and spat out a vigorous and surging flame.
Xiao Chen’s vision instantly filled with red flames. He laughed coldly. He had long since readied the Purple Thunder True Fire for this.
“Bang!”
The prepared purple flames scattered the flames the Fire Demon spat out on contact.
When the Yin- and Yang-attributed flames clashed, a boundless shock wave spread out. Ball-shaped pits appeared in the scarlet sea. When the surrounding water filled in the holes, they became a huge whirlpool.
Knocked far away, the Fire Demon was miserable. After playing with fire for its whole life, it was finally burned by fire.
The Fire Demon’s skin split all over its body and blood poured out. The fire on its head was now very small, like it would be blown out by the light gust of wind.
Expressionless, Xiao Chen stepped forward. Then he used Breaking Armor to create a large hole in the chest of the weak Fire Demon.
