Chapter 342: Flame Dragon Form

Surrounded by sky-filing golden lights, Xue Long went dumbstruck after seeing that Nie Tian had returned.

ZZZZZLA!

A beam of golden light swept across Xue Long’s waist, cutting off a piece of his flesh and leaving a bloody gash.

With a pained cry, Xue Long refocused his attention on defending against the slithering golden light beams that had shot out of Ning Yang’s sword.

However, he couldn’t help but check Nie Tian out from time to time with a both touched and worried look in his eyes.

After all, he had never expected that Nie Tian would actually have the audacity to come back.

Ning Yang was so powerful that even he was barely able to stay alive. He couldn’t even manage to escape from the blockade of Ning Yang’s golden sword lights.

He believed that there wasn’t a single person in the Realm of Split Void who had the same cultivation base as Ning Yang that would be worthy of being his opponent.

Nie Tian knew perfectly clearly how formidable Ning Yang was, and that he and Xue Long had only come together because of a deal.

Not only that, but the Phantasm currently being held off by Li Langfeng was also a major threat to Nie Tian.

Once the Phantasm broke free from Li Langfeng’s blockade and came for Nie Tian, he would be killed beyond the shadow of a doubt.

Under such extreme circumstances, Nie Tian was obviously being irrational to come back to his aid.

On the other hand, the way Xue Long saw it, since Nie Tian was only at the Heaven stage, even though he had returned, he actually wouldn’t be able to do much to help. It would just be one more life lost.

Therefore, even though he was very touched, he felt that Nie Tian wasn’t being smart.

Xue Long’s face grew stern as he berated, “Why did you come back? I told you not to mind me. Why didn’t you listen? What’s the point of you coming back? Will you be able to help me?”

With a sickly ecstatic look in his eyes, Ning Yang laughed broadly. “Great!!! Leave me those three fragmentary star marks and I’ll spare your lives! Otherwise, both of you will die here today!”

Nie Tian was surprisingly calm as he said, “Uncle Xue, it doesn’t matter what kind of deal you’ve made with the Spirit Condor. Since you’re here to help me accomplish a task, I can’t watch you die. Also, how come you’re so certain that I won’t be able to help you?”

WHOOSH!

The Flame Dragon Armor suddenly flew out of Nie Tian’s bracelet of holding.

The crimson Flame Dragon Armor unleashed blazing flames, as if it had turned into a miniature sun, causing crackling sounds to echo out from the air around it.

“A Spirit Channeling grade treasure! And it’s fire-attributed!” Xue Long was flabbergasted.

Only then did he finally realize that this was probably the fire-attributed Spirit Channeling grade treasure that Shi Hui and his men had seen in the Void Illusion Mountain Range.

After all, aside from people from the Flame God Sect, not many people knew that the Flame Dragon Armor had been in Nie Tian’s possession.

Even though Xue Long had figured out Nie Tian’s real identity, he wasn’t aware that he was the owner of that Spirit Channeling grade treasure.

Ning Yang gave a cold harrumph and said, “As I expected, the Flame Dragon Armor is indeed in your hands!”

As a core disciple and the lead searcher of the Heaven Palace Sect, Ning Yang naturally had access to more information than Xue Long did.

Upon seeing the Flame Dragon Armor, Ning Yang slightly restrained his disdain and assumed a much more serious attitude as he faced Nie Tian.

He had heard some stories regarding the Flame Dragon Armor, and he knew that this Spirit Channeling grade treasure had never displayed its true might after it had been obtained by the Flame God Sect.

The reason was that the Flame Dragon Armor they had seized hadn’t been complete.

The most important part of the Flame Dragon Armor was the Blood Core, which was its source of energy. The Flame God Sect had been searching for the Blood Core ever since they had obtained the Flame Dragon Armor, but their efforts had been fruitless.

However, according to the information Ning Yang had obtained, the Flame Dragon Armor Nie Tian had just summoned out of his bracelet of holding should have merged with its Blood Core and become complete.

Even its damaged parts seemed to be somehow repaired. This meant that the Flame Dragon Armor had become intact in Nie Tian’s hands, and it was now a Spirit Channeling grade treasure that was capable of inflicting tremendous damage.

Every Spirit Channeling grade treasure could be considered to be a weapon of massive destruction, not to mention this was the famous Flame Dragon Armor.

After summoning the Flame Dragon Armor, Nie Tian focused his attention on his firm will to kill Ning Yang, “Help me kill this man!”

He had faith that the Flame Dragon Armor’s soul would be able to read his mind.

As Nie Tian had expected, the moment he made his intentions clear, the Flame Dragon Armor, which was burning fiercely like a sun, morphed into a gigantic flame dragon. Thundering ferociously, it swooped down towards Ning Yang, following the directions given by Nie Tian’s Heaven Eyes.

FIZZ! FIZZ!

Red flames were unleashed from within the slithering, gigantic flame dragon’s intangible body.
