“Demonic Arts This is Demonic Arts.” Byron felt a jolt in his mind, his pupils reflecting nothing but the Sea of Fire, the intense heat singeing his hair and leaving an unpleasant odor lingering in the air.
The meticulously arranged Earthfire Formation had ultimately turned into a cage that trapped him, and Byron’s chest was filled with pent-up Fury that had nowhere to go.
This Fury burned away his panic, consumed his reason, and facing the relentless crimson lotus, he let out a roar, raising his Broad Sword high. Thunderous arcs of electricity crackled around him as he swung down at the massive fire dragon charging toward him.
Crack!
In the blazing world of flames, a brilliant bolt of lightning suddenly struck down. This lightning came from Byron’s Broad Sword, and at the moment it fell, it crashed onto the fierce head of the enormous fire dragon.
Boom! Fire rained down, and electric arcs slithered like snakes.
The fire dragon, stretching over thirty feet long, had its entire head blown apart, while its long body was cleaved by the flickering light of the Broad Sword. With both hands gripping the sword, Byron stood firm like a coastal rock amidst crashing waves, only to be separated as they surged against him.
“Surround!” The voice of the crimson lotus was icy. At her gesture, more flames gathered, reforming the dragon's body and encircling Byron.
The rock was resilient and could not be toppled; thus, let the tide rise and completely engulf it.
At this moment, Byron, this steadfast rock, was on the verge of being submerged by the encroaching flames.
“Thunder Strike Nine!”
In this critical moment, Byron’s eyes turned completely red. Ignoring the massive wound on his abdomen that had yet to fully heal, he shouted fiercely. The sword moved like a dragon, propelling him forward as countless arcs of lightning swirled around him, forming nine lightning spheres.
Each of these nine spheres was as large as a basketball, connected by numerous fine arcs of electricity to create a protective shield. Shielded within this barrier, Byron forcefully broke free from the searing heat of the flames surrounding him and transformed into a streak of lightning with incredible Speed, racing straight toward the crimson lotus standing atop the fire dragon's body.
“Can your brother handle it alone? We should go help him. Although Byron has sustained serious injuries, if he attacks recklessly like this now, even beings of equal rank would have to avoid his sharp edge.”
In a flame-free area, Bu You casually rested his head on Eve’s long and flexible form. Compared to his relaxed demeanor, Eve appeared somewhat worried and nervously watched the situation on the battlefield.
"There's no need to worry. Let's first wear him down, and if we can worsen his injuries, all the better. This is a case of using his own tactics against him. When he shows signs of exhaustion, we can strike," Bu said lazily, his half-closed eyes and carefree demeanor leaving Eve somewhat speechless.
He showed no signs of concern at all. Since Byron loved to shoot himself in the foot, Bu was more than happy to play along, using the formations set by Byron to trap him in return. The feeling was simply exhilarating.
With a thunderous sound, a blinding light erupted as a lightning sphere surrounding Byron suddenly exploded, its powerful shockwave scattering the encroaching Sea of Fire.
"Die!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the Sea of Fire was blown away, Byron charged forward with ferocity, closing the distance to within five yards of Hong Lian. He swung his Broad Sword down in a furious arc, unleashing a crescent-shaped sword energy that howled through the air, creating a sonic boom. The remaining eight lightning spheres rapidly expanded and crashed toward Hong Lian.
"Burn!" Hong Lian remained unfazed as he watched the imminent danger grow larger. Instead, he pointed a finger forward, summoning an endless Sea of Fire that transformed into hundreds of fire serpents, wrapping around Byron's body and igniting wildly.
At that moment, the arc of sword energy struck Hong Lian directly, followed closely by the explosive detonation of the eight lightning spheres. An indescribable force of Destruction was born at the center of the explosion, with thunderous lightning swirling around like a storm, completely isolating the surrounding flames.
"Why isn't he dodging?" Eve's face turned pale as she instinctively wanted to rush in to save him. However, Bu's next words calmed her down.
"It's fine. Did you forget that my brother and I have both learned the forbidden technique Transform Void?"
"You two brothers are truly strange; you share such a deep connection that whatever secret techniques or Mental Techniques one learns can be shared with the other. Perhaps that's due to your special constitutions," Eve thought to herself, feeling somewhat reassured but unable to suppress her inner criticism. She had been astonished when she saw Hong Lian use the Water God Technique earlier; it wasn't until she heard Bu's explanation that she began to understand. However, understanding didn't necessarily mean she could accept it.
"Hahaha! You fool! How dare you take my Thunder Strike Nine head-on!"
As Hong Lian's figure was engulfed by an endless storm of thunder and lightning, Byron laughed maniacally, his face twisted with malice. His energy shield had already weakened due to the departure of nine lightning spheres; now, under the relentless burning of hundreds of fire serpents, it could no longer hold up and shattered with a loud bang. Flames instantly engulfed him, filling the air with a nauseating smell of charred flesh.
"Get away from me!"
With a furious roar, Byron's energy surged, and countless arcs of lightning erupted, extinguishing the flames surrounding him. However, this explosion clearly took a heavy toll on him; at least in terms of the intensity of his energy, he was no longer as formidable as before. The wounds on his abdomen had worsened, with the torn flesh now emitting a meaty scent from being burned, and his exposed arms and face were covered in blisters from the scorching heat.
"Now you can make your move, Eve. Use Flute Sound to distract Byron; we must take his life today." Bu suddenly sat up, and as his words fell, a figure appeared at the center of the thunderstorm caused by the explosion of the eight lightning orbs.
As soon as this figure emerged, Byron's body trembled, his expression frozen in disbelief.
"Fire, encircle him!"
The cold command was uttered, and Hong Lian emerged unscathed from the center of the lightning storm. His red hair flowed without wind, and his crimson robe billowed gracefully. He pointed at Byron, and a surging Sea of Fire swept over like a tide, blocking out the sun.
"How is this possible?" Byron had lost count of how many times he had uttered this phrase today. He felt darkness creeping in at the edges of his vision; it was as if the entire world had turned upside down.
Who could imagine that someone could emerge unscathed from such a terrifying center of lightning? If this person were a High-Level Giant, it would be understandable, but this individual was not even at Intermediate Level 5. This bizarre scene left Byron utterly shocked.
The melodious Flute Sound suddenly resonated throughout the area. Eve played her jade flute with delicate fingers, her enticing red lips parting slightly as she began to play "Lanshan," a tune widely known across Fran Continent.
The enchanting melody that reached Byron's ears brought forth vivid illusions filled with longing and desire. The hidden Mental Technique within the music further disoriented Byron's mind.
Buzz!
The Sea of Fire surged as all the fiery pillars within the Earthfire Formation were summoned by Hong Lian. They converged to form waves of fire shockwaves that rained down upon Byron with astonishing force, accompanied by an overwhelming heatwave.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
Sudden sounds of shattering glass echoed from all around. This final wave of fiery rain seemed to drain all energy from the Earthfire Formation. As the last flicker of flame was drawn away by Hong Lian, the semicircular barrier covering a thirty-zhang radius suddenly shattered. The ground was left in disarray with curling blue smoke, and not a single flame pillar erupted again.
"Ahhh!" Byron's expression twisted in rage as images in his mind flipped uncontrollably—either revealing scantily clad beauties or countless treasures exuding alluring scents that lingered persistently. These illusions were beyond his control, drilling into his mind one after another. With the looming threat from Inferno Blaze surrounding him, he had no time to calm himself and dispel them.
The crimson eyes were cold as she wielded her sword, her figure bursting forth with brutality. Accompanied by the flames of the Sea of Fire, the angles of the Ethereal Thirteen Swords were sharp, and the piercing sword energy relentlessly targeted Byron's vital points.
Within the Sea of Fire, the crimson figure moved like a fish in water. Once the terrifying speed was unleashed, she moved with the sword, and the sword moved with her. Surrounded by flames, Byron could not catch her fleeting shadow in time. The powerful Thunder Sword Technique often missed its mark, and within just a few exchanges, he had already been struck by several swords, with wounds deep enough to see bone.
Realizing the dire situation, anxiety appeared on Byron's face. He braced himself against a pillar of flame and desperately shoved a pill into his mouth to recover the energy he had already depleted.
"Heh heh, even a cornered beast will fight back," Bu Qing laughed, appearing to enjoy the spectacle.
Whoosh! Four Energy Wheels shot in from four cleverly angled directions. Byron's eyes widened as he saw more Energy Wheels appear amidst the flames where that elusive figure wielded her sword. Gritting his teeth, he roared in anger.
"Thunder Armor!"
With a loud crackle, brilliant light suddenly erupted around Byron. Countless bolts of lightning coalesced into a dazzling suit of armor. The first four approaching Energy Wheels sliced through this armor, creating a series of explosive sounds. The Energy Wheels composed entirely of sword energy were shattered by the arcs of lightning dancing across the armor.
"Even if I die today, I will surely kill you!"
With a sweeping motion of his Broad Sword, Byron resembled a god of thunder. His eyes widened in fury as he fixed his gaze on the crimson figure. Despite being scorched and surrounded by waves of fire, he stood firm. The armor that flickered with electric light enveloped him completely, boasting astonishing defensive power that could not be shaken by any amount of flame.
"How much energy do you have left now?" Bu Qing scoffed dismissively as the crimson figure approached with her sword raised high.
