A ball of blazing energy was taking shape in Saurun's hands. Its appearance was like a ball of continuously flowing red mercury, but the central temperature had already exceeded 1800 degrees. When the ball of energy exploded, even the hill was razed to the ground. The Rank 6 Flame Explosion Technique used a special method to compress a huge amount of energy. When it came into contact with a target, it released a terrifying energy attack, and was currently Saurun's strongest skill.
When the Blazing Explosion Technique ball of light in his hands started to emit a destructive aura, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from behind Saurun. Saurun quickly turned around, only to see an alloyed heavy sword ruthlessly slashing towards him. Before the sword had arrived, the energy ripples on its surface had already reached Saurun's body. Even though his body had crystallized, it still easily split open and expanded under the energy waves from the violent slashes.
It could be imagined that when the heavy sword truly landed on Saurun's body, his body would also be cut in half. Even if the energy from this attack wasn't enough to wear down the fire element in Saurun's body, even if Saurun could still recover from this strike, he would still be seriously injured!
Instinct told Saurun the result within a thousandth of a second, and with a groan, he used both hands to push the incomplete Flame Burst Spell towards the heavy sword.
Zero shook his head as he recovered from the impact. He raised his head and saw a scorching and alluring light engulfing Su's figure.
In the next moment, the entire cave shook, followed by a thunderous sound. At the same time, a large ball of fire first expanded before exploding. Then, flames surged like the sea as waves of fire swept through the entire catacombs!
The flames spread, almost licking Zero's body. After they had expanded their domain to its limit, they abruptly shrunk back and then disappeared into thin air. However, after this attack, at least half of the lake's water evaporated, filling the cavern with steam. In the mist, a figure staggered back and fell to the ground. The mist gradually dispersed, allowing Zero to see that the figure was Su Su!
Su Bai's entire body was giving off streams of hot smoke. His Night God Tactics suit had been instantly burnt to ashes. Right now, all that was wrapped up was a fragmented piece of cloth. Even the several composite templates that were used to protect the important parts of her body had disappeared, exposing large areas of her snow-white skin. Looking at the heavy sword at the side, the front of the sword had already been melted into molten metal, leaving only the back half of the sword emitting a shocking red light.
Thankfully, Saurun only used the semi-finished Flame Explosion Technique. Fortunately, Su Bai was wearing the Night God's defensive spell which had the highest defense from Asgard. Fortunately, the berserk attack had neutralized at least half of the Flame Explosion Technique's power. Otherwise, he would not only be unconscious, he would be blown to smithereens!
Zero was about to rush over, but when he saw Saurun emerging from the fog, he stopped.
He pointed the sniper rifle forward, aimed, fired, and moved in one breath. The sniper bullets hit Saurun, but the moment they made contact with his crystalline body, they were melted by the high temperature on the surface of his body. But no matter what the result was, after shooting out a shot, Zero immediately turned around and ran, dodging into a complicated corridor.
Sauron had wanted to kill Sue, but Zero's sniping had succeeded in rousing his instinctive orders from Andre. The order to kill zero was set to the highest level, overwhelming Sauron's other thoughts. He let out a muffled roar, and the sound waves brought with it a wave of flames as they spread into the air. Following him, Saurun started running.
The way he ran was very special. On Saurun's crystalline body, there were fine cracks between the crystals and the ones. These cracks were now spewing out large chunks of fire, and Saurun was instantly engulfed in it. As he ran, he dragged a bright beam of fire with him as he chased after Zero like a meteor. The layer of flame on Saurun's body could defend against both a sudden attack and ignite the air in front of him, creating a path of fire that was invisible to the naked eye. This would allow his speed to reach the pinnacle!
Saurun was clearly not good at speed, but his speed was at the speed of a fifth step. Flames were spewing out of his body, and in the blink of an eye, he had dove into a complicated corridor just like Zero. Suddenly, wherever Saurun went, countless glowing fungi were caught up in the flames, and pieces of them were ignited.
As Sauron sprinted along the side road, the fire in the side road flickered. He came to a sudden stop two hundred meters out in the side street. In Saurun's eyes, it looked like a spiderweb of tunnels. Who knew which tunnel they were heading to? But Saurun had his own way. He took a deep breath, then spread his hands wide, letting out a thunderous roar.
Suddenly, the flames on Saurun's body flared. A large area of flames rolled out from his body and rushed in every direction toward the tunnel. Wherever the flames passed by, in Saurun's mind, the map of a branch road would continuously appear in the darkness and gradually become complete. The flames erupting from Saurun's body spread for at least a thousand meters before gradually dying out!
Five hundred meters from Sauron, Zero was hiding behind a stalagmite that was connected to the ground above. This stalagmite was wide enough to hide in. At this moment, the bamboo shoot on the other side of the zero wall was covered with sparks. That was the scene of the glowing fungi burning. Just a moment ago, Saurun's burst of flames had swept over everything. If he had not hidden behind the stalagmite in time, he would have been burnt.
There was a strong aura of Saurun in the flames. Judging from the situation, Zerom must have used a method to look at the terrain. In Zero's senses, Saurun had already begun to move in his direction. In Zero's mind, the complex tunnels in the crypt were plotted as a floor plan. On this map, the dot of light representing Saurun was moving.
The shot he had fired at Sauron before he left had not only attracted his attention, but had also set a mental mark on him. A mental sign needs to be touched in order to work, but it can usually be attached to the medium. It was the same logic as Anthony's use of a sniper rifle to shoot at zero and unleash a psychic attack. Zero used the sniper's bullets as a medium to contact Sauron's body while also placing a mental symbol on his body.
Within a five hundred meter radius, Saurun's every movement was gone like the back of his hand!
Zero concealed his aura and retreated instead of moving forward. He was hiding behind a stalagmite in the direction Saurun was heading. Saurun was no longer the same as before. Not only did his strength increase by a whole stage, but now that he revealed his true attitude as a disordered person, he was comparable to an existence at the sixth step in his elemental form. As for the sixth stage of Elemental Domain, it was usually several times stronger than a Fighting Domain user of the same level.
Although he had used his previous evolution point to raise his overall strength to rank 6, against an Elementalist of the same rank as him, Zero still did not have the absolute confidence to win. It was just that for Zero, the strength of the opponent didn't matter. He only cared about whether the opponent could be killed or not. As for now, there were already too many people who claimed that they couldn't be killed yet they died to Zero, so Zero firmly believed that there was no such thing as an immortal life.
This confidence had been built up through countless battles and had become an unerasable will. At this moment, Zero didn't even consider the difference in strength between him and Saurun. Zero only considered the factors of trajectory, distance, and landing point. All these factors combined had only one purpose, and that was to kill Sauron.
When the spiritual emblem showed Saurun's dot of light entering the pupa-shaped branch road, the distance between him and Zero shortened to 300 meters!
He suddenly jumped out from behind the stalagmite. While he was rolling, his sniper rifle had already started firing at a predetermined location. After reading Sauron's information with precision, Sauron's height and physical signs all data are long and deep deep in the mind of zero. Zero can build a model in his mind to deduce the position of Sauron as he enters the tunnel, and thus grasp the shooting's landing point.
