Fire Monster

Chapter 272 Wildfire
“Hehehe! You really deserve to die. I am only one step away from overcoming this catastrophe! Only one step left. I don’t intend to take your lives. Now it seems that I am still merciful.”

The third headmaster laughed strangely, and the aura on his body was rapidly accumulating energy like the expanding eye of a storm or an erupting volcano.

This caused Wang Xuan and others who were about to attack to retreat hastily. It was not because they wanted to give the villain a chance to speak, but if they attacked at this moment, they would be the first to break the dam, and all the flood water would be pushed down.

In other words, if there is no powerful enough tank in the front, whoever attacks first will be in trouble.

At this time, the third sect leader was obviously undergoing some kind of abnormal change. Twisted, bloody shadows were constantly being drawn in from all around. These shadows were filled with human faces wailing, screaming, and struggling.

Then these shadows condensed and overlapped behind the third master, as if weaving an exquisite blood-killing cloak.

"Boss Wang, if we don't take action now, the consequences will be unpredictable. Please lend me a hand!"

Zhao Guanshan also broke free from the rotten blood candle at this time, and rushed forward like a fool after shouting. This was certainly not because he was so wise, brave, or hated evil, or because he had some trump card that could turn a pig into a tiger.

But he saw that the third leader wanted to escape.

For other people, this might not be a bad thing. The spiritual world is so vast, at most the third sect leader can turn into a spiritual demon. Are there not enough spiritual demons wandering in the spiritual world?

In short, as long as we eradicate its wings and foundation in the Tianlong Taoist Palace and then focus on a wave of demon heart detection, it will not be too late to make up for the loss.

There is no need to fight at this time. Well, it’s not that they are afraid of death, but they have to guard against the third sect leader suddenly returning to the real world. He is still the third sect leader now. Once he returns to reality, how much damage will he cause?
As the saying goes, when faced with two evils, choose the lesser one.

But for Zhao Guanshan, he was very sure that if he let the third sect leader escape today, he would transform into a demon spirit and hunt Zhao Guanshan to death.

"Fellow Daoist Chengfeng, be careful!"

So even Wang Xuan shouted, but it was useless, because Zhao Guanshan had already rushed forward, and before he could get within ten steps of the third sect leader, he successfully detonated his accumulated force field. In an instant, the entire perception range was blood red, just like a dam burst, the sea overturned, and the mountains collapsed and the earth split.

The terrifying aura and power all came upon Zhao Guanshan at once. He didn't even have time to activate the Imperial Seal Oil Lamp, and perhaps even if he activated it it would be of no use.

Even though he was holding a large shield of spiritual ash with a reinforcement of +10, and even though all the defensive spiritual weapons on his body had been strengthened to +9, at this moment he was still like a spring, being directly flattened from a person in the three-dimensional world to a two-dimensional piece of paper!
This is the power of Qi traction and force field collapse.

"Ahhh!"

The third headmaster roared in rage. All the energy and strength he had accumulated were broken. This made it impossible for him to even become a spiritual demon. Damn this kid.

Swish swish!
At this moment, he held the spiritual weapon and stabbed Zhao Guanshan, who had turned into a paper piece, nine times in a row, expressing his deep hatred.

It was not until this moment that Wang Xuan suddenly took action. Well, it was not that he was a step late, but that he needed this fellow Taoist Chengfeng to ride the wind away in time.

Now, I guess that’s about it.

Fellow Daoist Chengfeng, have a safe journey. I will avenge you!

Without the traction of Qi and the danger brought by the collapse of the force field, Wang Xuan and others had nothing to worry about. Including the demon hunters of Tianlong Taoist Palace, they were attacking frantically with gnashing teeth.

No matter how powerful the third sect leader was, he was still defeated.

"Everyone, attack in turns. We must contain him and don't give him a chance to return to reality!"

Wang Xuan took on the role of on-site commander and steadily suppressed the third sect leader. He was about to kill him when suddenly, the third sect leader made a sound like the howling of ghosts and threw out an imperial oil lamp in his hand. Golden light flickered inside the oil lamp. The moment the golden light flew out, the entire area was filled with golden light. Everyone seemed to be in an iron wall. Not to mention attacking, even their perception was cut off and blocked.

This is exactly the magical treasure he carries with him.

Although Wang Xuan immediately rang his bell the next second, the effect was still inferior.

Taking advantage of this, screams were heard. It turned out that the third sect leader took this opportunity to start a killing spree, killing more than ten people.

Although he won't really die, it will be difficult to kill the third master.

For a moment, Wang Xuan could only use the bell in his hand to protect a few people. His spiritual treasure was suppressed, so he could not locate the third headmaster. The others were also separated. The whole area was obviously huge, and they were obviously not far from each other, but they could only be defeated one by one and slaughtered.

At this moment, there was a flash of fire, and a sealed oil lamp suddenly joined the battlefield. When the oil lamp fell into the perception of the third head master, the whole world suddenly went dark.

But from the perspective of other people, the whole world suddenly became bright, and the outside world that had been impossible to break out of and perceive before was restored.

The point is, they knew the location of the third leader.

The person who made the move was none other than the invincible cockroach-like Zhao Guanshan.

Normally speaking, he would definitely die.

However, he first had a large shield with the same +10 reinforcement. When his spirit body was compressed into a paper-like shape, it actually gave him the greatest defensive effect.

As for why he was not crushed to death when he was in paper form, it was because he still had the Green Leaf Spirit Soldier in his hand. After replenishing his blood and mana for free, he was able to successfully extend his life.

However, the nine swords stabbed out by the third headmaster were actually useless.

"Daoist Chengfeng, you're here just in time!"

Wang Xuan was overjoyed. Although he had hoped that Zhao Guanshan would ride away with the wind, he did not want to watch his men being helplessly slaughtered. "Kill him!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and with the power of Zhao Guanshan's imperial oil lamp, they drew their swords and suppressed the third headmaster in an instant, and even cut through his defensive spiritual weapons. They were about to kill him on the spot. Another imperial oil lamp was thrown out, and an extremely violent, crazy, cruel, and terrifying blue flame sprang out from it.

In just one encounter, the three witchers from Tianlong Taoist Palace were burned to ashes.

The next second, Wang Xuan's two men were also unable to defend themselves. Half-body armor, large shields and the like were no match for them.

If you get involved, you will die!
"It's a wildfire! It's a wildfire! Damn it, everyone scatter!"

Wang Xuan was obviously frightened and his face turned pale. He was so scared that he didn't care about others and turned around to run away. Although the spirits killed by the wild fire can be resurrected, the resurrection time is no longer one year, but a full hundred years!

This is such a rip-off.

In the blink of an eye, the wildfire had killed eight people.

The third headmaster took this opportunity to absorb the blood evil again and condense the blood evil cloak, but no one could take care of him.

Even Zhao Guanshan felt his scalp tingling, and he had no way to deal with the wild fire.

He wanted to turn around and run away, but he was still a step too late, and his body was set on fire by the wild fire. This thing could actually ignore the defense of the spiritual soldiers and burn directly from the inside.

But at this moment, the time around them suddenly slowed down until it stopped.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

It turned out to be Mei Xun, the ancestor of his Zhao family.

"You have only one count of time left before your spirit body will be burned to death. Not only will your spirit body be unable to revive within a hundred years, but you will also suffer certain damage in reality. Most importantly, you will not be able to bring back all the gains from this trip. But, do you remember what I told you?"

"You have accumulated a total of 50,000 points of support limit in the Fire Key."

"I reminded you three times just now, and I deducted one thousand points of your support limit each time. Now you insist on committing suicide, so it's time to make a choice. Do you choose to consume 47,000 points of your support limit to help you escape this disaster?"

"Of course, the price is that your Lihuo Secret Key will be completely reset to zero from today onwards. All ties between your Zhao family and the Lihuo Secret Key will be lifted at this moment, and I can finally be free too."

"Is there no other way?"

Zhao Guanshan asked quickly. He knew that it was not time that was slowing down, but Mei Xun was communicating with his thoughts at a faster speed.

"No, if you have less support, you can't escape the burning of the wildfire. In fact, you have laid a good foundation now. You will live well without the Secret Key of the Fire. Liu Yuwei and Xiao Chengyun will not abandon you just because you don't have the Secret Key of the Fire. The relationship between you is not bound by external forces."

"Come on, make a decision. Everything has a price. There is no good without reason, and there is no hatred without reason. You can't take all the benefits."

"Okay! I agree."

Zhao Guanshan did not hesitate any longer. As things had evolved to this point, there was nothing he could do.

No matter what, the most important thing is to save his life first and keep all the gains from this trip.

"What a smart kid."

Mei Xun smiled happily. Before she finished her voice, everything around her suddenly returned to normal. The imperial seal oil lamp that Zhao Guanshan was holding in his hand suddenly flew up automatically. A small flame flew out of it and entered Zhao Guanshan's body, instantly neutralizing the violent and dangerous wildfire.

The whole process went extremely smoothly.

It’s that simple!
Well, it wasn't easy, at least not for him.

He was already quite satisfied that he could maintain this situation.

As for his own imperial seal oil lamp, the little flame inside it would no longer follow him...

Before Zhao Guanshan had time to feel sad, he heard Mei Xun's extremely furious voice.

"You little bastard, how dare you go back on your word? What on earth did you do?"

"Stop! That's my Fire Key!"

"My Lihuo!"

As Mei Xun shouted at the top of his lungs, Zhao Guanshan discovered that another soul armor piece had condensed between his eyebrows. However, unlike the one with Lan Xue, this one was as red as fire and was condensed by the wild fire.

The two soul armor pieces he had condensed with blue snow before overlapped with this one condensed with wild fire. They did not interfere with each other and formed a stable state.

At this moment, Zhao Guanshan himself was dumbfounded. Was he so lucky?

In the end what happened?
