Chapter 859: Playing with Fire
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Xu Fan’s arm trembled, and the base of his palm seemed as if it had torn, the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon nearly slipping from his grasp. This was the first time the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon had encountered such a situation.The Vermilion Bird was truly formidable, not only were its flames scorching, but its talons were also akin to the weapons of gods and men.
When Xu Fan had once battled the Turtle Hermit, he had not expended nearly this much effort.
The Vermilion Bird was significantly more formidable than the Turtle Hermit.
However, the Turtle Hermit could still only be considered a “young turtle,” and the Xuan Chu Heavenly Turtle was naturally not adept at battling but was more skilled at defense.
This Vermilion Bird was inherently bellicose and exceedingly tyrannical, with astonishing strength and speed.
Moreover, Xu Fan could affirm that the Vermilion Bird was very young, which was why its power was so overwhelming.
Man and bird, after a single exchange, both retreated simultaneously.
Xu Fan rapidly descended to the ground, and upon landing, he couldn’t stabilize his form but slid backward for dozens of meters before he finally steadied himself, leaving behind two long friction marks on the ground.
The Vermilion Bird also had a hard time.
It was lifted by the shock of the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon’s Sword Qi and sent flying high into the air, traveling more than ten meters before it managed to shake off the Sword Qi of the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon.
Once Xu Fan steadied himself, he braced himself against the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon, catching the backlash force, and then soared into the sky, charging straight at the Vermilion Bird with terrifying Sword Qi that tore through the sky.
At this moment, the Vermilion Bird erupted in fury, feeling provoked.
It shrieked repeatedly, its talons fiercely attacking Xu Fan.
The many magical creatures in the Valley of Nine Deaths stared in amazement.
They had not expected this young human who had suddenly infiltrated their valley to possess such formidable strength, holding his own in a direct confrontation with the Vermilion Bird without falling behind.
This…
was simply too terrifying!
A flicker of amusement crossed Xu Fan’s eyes as he let out a long howl, his voice resonating through the heavens.
“You Fire Bird, you are quite interesting, with decent strength.
Warm-up is over; now we begin for real!”
Suddenly, the lower-powered magical creatures in the valley were so shocked by Xu Fan’s words that their eardrums ached, and their hearts started racing, prompting them to hurriedly keep their distance.
“How dare you be so arrogant before me, seeking death!”
At this moment, the rage of the Vermilion Bird reached its peak.
Its inability to defeat Xu Fan quickly fueled its anger, accelerating its attack speed.
Its talons ripped through space as it violently attacked Xu Fan.
The fury was like a giant flame wave rushing crazily towards Xu Fan.
The magical creatures observing from thousands of meters away all felt unbearably hot and their scalps numb.
However, Xu Fan, who was right in the thick of the battle, still appeared composed, his great sword swinging, effectively neutralizing the fierce onslaught of the Vermilion Bird.
“Hiss…”
The angry screech of the Vermilion Bird echoed throughout the Valley of Nine Deaths.
The aftermath of the great battle between the bird and the man wreaked havoc throughout the valley, leaving it in ruins.
Yet, on the high platform, the Crimson Profound Fruit still hung securely on the branch.
The fierce battle between the Vermilion Bird and Xu Fan deliberately avoided that area.
After all, it was the reason for their battle.
“Ah…” you despicable human, you’ve thoroughly enraged me.
Today, I must tear you to pieces!”
At this moment, the Vermilion Bird completely erupted in rage, its wings flapping furiously towards Xu Fan.
The flames, originally bright red, now turned purple and morphed into two Fire Dragons in mid-air, roaring as they charged towards Xu Fan.
“Oh, fire, is it?”
Xu Fan’s lips curled up carelessly, his stance firm and unyielding, confronting the onslaught head-on and even putting away the Heavenly Fiend Great Demon.
To subdue the Vermilion Bird, he must defeat it directly and brutally.
Xu Fan placed his hands in front of his chest and rapidly changed his hand seals.
Initially, the seals were visible, but they soon sped up to the extent that only a blur of shadows could be seen.
As the speed of the hand seals increased, Xu Fan’s eyes flickered with a deep red glow, and the temperature around him rose rapidly.
In an instant, the space within dozens of meters around Xu Fan began to distort.
At last, Xu Fan stacked his hands in an extremely strange position and pushed forcefully forward.
He bellowed, “Obscure True Fire!”
There was only a loud “bang!”
A small cluster of flames appeared in Xu Fan’s hands, shooting forth from his grasp.
That tiny sprout-like flame rapidly expanded in an instant, and eventually turned into a vast sea of bright red fire.
It blotted out the sky!
At this moment, the sky was a fiery red.
The terrifying sea of fire seemed to morph into a prehistoric fierce beast, its momentum suddenly increasing manifold, and it opened its gaping maw towards the two Fire Dragons that were shooting towards it.
Now, flames reached to the heavens, a confrontation of fierce flames, a test of fire!
Seeing Xu Fan forsaking the great sword and instead using flames to contend against it, the Vermilion Bird sneered coldly, “Overestimating yourself!”
It wasn’t because the Vermilion Bird was arrogant, but rather because it was a fire-type demon beast, born to live with fire, with fire as its life.
Due to its lineage, the Vermilion Bird had been devouring all the fires of the world from a young age, turning them into its power to aid its own evolution.
By now, this Vermilion Bird had already reached the Dongxuan stage, so one could imagine how much fire it had consumed during its evolution.
Among them, it had swallowed various violent and strange flames, which had built its terrifying strength!
These two Fire Dragons were one of the Vermilion Bird’s strongest trump cards.
With temperatures exceeding a thousand degrees, they could burn everything.
All metals were nothing more than melting objects before the Vermilion Bird.
This human did indeed possess admirable strength.
If he had used other methods, perhaps he could have withstood this strike from the Vermilion Bird, but unfortunately, this human was recklessly foolish at the crucial moment!
To play with fire before its ancestor of fire could only speed up his demise!
At that moment, the Vermilion Bird wore a distinctly human-like expression of pride, perfectly capturing its feeling of triumph.
The Vermilion Bird seemed to already see Xu Fan dying under the Fire Dragons, turning into ashes.
But quickly,
The proud expression on the Vermilion Bird’s face froze.
Because the two Fire Dragons it took pride in, after crashing into the sea of flames Xu Fan had unleashed…
disappeared without a trace…
Two such formidable exotic Fire Dragons vanished like that.
A droplet falling into a lake still leaves ripples, proving the droplet had been there.
However, the Vermilion Bird could not prove that its two Fire Dragons had ever reached Xu Fan’s sea of fire.
“Swoosh!”
With a casual wave of his hand, Xu Fan made the Obscure True Fire completely disappear.
The sky full of flames vanished in an instant.
This transcendental and masterful control of fire left the Vermilion Bird completely dumbfounded.
Xu Fan did not forget to mock the Vermilion Bird at this moment.
Smiling, he said, “Vermilion Bird, huh?
I hear your greatest skill is playing with fire?
Grown up with fire since you were young?
It doesn’t quite seem like it to me!”
