Fire Monster

Chapter 337: Cutting off one's flesh to give to Zhao
"Grass!"

Inside the small shop, Zhao Guanshan, who was busy frying, stir-frying and cooking on the stove, suddenly had an idea and cried out inwardly, "Oh my god!"
This battle of wits has only reached the second stage. The food he portrayed has not yet reached the point of being perfect in color, aroma and taste. There are less than four hundred people who are destined to meet him. Why is he forced to have a showdown?

The Zhenhai Taoist Palace is not like the Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace. It has been stable for hundreds of years, has a population of over 100 million, and can develop a nine-level spirit-offering tower. Every aspect is civilized, polite, and industrially scientific.

This is not only the guidance of destiny, but also what generations of mortals in Zhenhai Dao Palace pursue. Both are indispensable.

The mortals in the Zhenhai Taoist Palace are not so ignorant that they do not know that there are evil spirits in this world, nor are they so ignorant that they know about the existence of other Taoist palaces. It's just that all these have become a few lines in history books.

Just like people living on Earth in 2025 are not unfamiliar with women with bound feet, two-legged sheep, and iron virgins.

Knowing is one thing, but actually seeing it is another.

So he was very clear about the consequences of this matter.

There is simply no choice.

Lao Tang, the waiter, the customer, all go away.

Zhao Guanshan kicked the furnace with blazing flames directly into the air. There were exactly 365 burning objects in it. At first glance, it looked like burning charcoal, but it was actually the power to awaken the statue of the Lihuo Immortal, representing the Lihuo Taoist tradition.

At this moment, in the dark night sky, the flames illuminated the stars and the earth, just like daylight.

The burning material, which was originally only the size of a thumb in the furnace, was growing faster and larger, and flying higher and higher.

If Brother Qin’s flaming chariot only lit up half of the street.

Then Zhao Guanshan's place illuminates the entire city.

Everyone in the city has realized something, because there is mortal fire in it, it contains their mortal visions, and the little wishes that each of them has made and hoped for.

So they couldn't help but walk out of the room and look up at this scene, to see this magical scene that turned night into day but not so dazzling.

As for the various black monsters that were quickly turned into ashes under the shining light, they were insignificant.

Because, compared to the big net formed by the black air, the pattern formed by this flame and this light is more magnificent, greater and more magical.

Then people were surprised to find that the ordinary things, such as the vehicles around them, the kitchen knives they were using, and even a button on their bodies, all glowed at this moment, as if some substance inside them was resonating.

Until a flaming statue at least 30,000 meters tall stood above the city.

But this statue is not real. It is merely composed of the 365 stars. With flames burning and light and shadows refracted, it is more illusory than a mirage.

However, one can clearly see with the naked eye that it is indeed a statue. One can clearly see that it is a statue of a female fairy, with flying hair, natural hem of clothes, serene gaze, and flawless face, just like a real person.

So it is easy to get a strange feeling that at first glance, it is all flames and light, and at the next glance, the statue seems to come alive.

After coming to their senses, people began to take pictures frantically and spread this magical scene in various ways. The whole city seemed like a festival.

Including Brother Qin, Daliang and others, because they suddenly discovered that the black monster that was chasing them had disappeared, and the gloomy nightmare that could create accidents at will had disappeared.

They were saved.

But, but why does it feel a little wrong?

More and more mortals began to look further through the flaming statue, or rather, to the sky, and inevitably, they saw an indescribable scene.

Their world is being tightly entangled by a huge monster. Although they cannot see the whole picture and can only see a part of it, it is enough to make people uncomfortable.

Many people even fainted from fright, and many adults blindfolded their children in a hurry and took them home.

Chaos was spreading, and some people wanted to flee the city, but were quickly frightened and shrank back.

Because the statue of Lihuo Immortal can only protect this city, and Zhenhai Dao Palace has a population of over 100 million, so of course it is more than just this city.

At this time, all connections with other cities were cut off, but the connection with this city was still there, and all infrastructure was still operating normally. A seven-level spirit supply tower in the center of the city with normal supply was enough to maintain the daily life of more than 10 million people.

What really scares these mortals is that destiny is no longer a pretense.

At least don't pretend in front of this city. Other cities can still be saved, but the population of more than 10 million in this city can only be wiped out.

So, the mortals in this city saw a scene that they would never forget. The monster, which was unknown how big it was, suddenly had sharp claws pop out from its body. Each claw was tens of thousands of meters long, and it drew a circle around the outskirts of their city.

Just with this one circle, the land with a radius of only 300 kilometers was cut out.

For other cities, it was a horrific ground-shaking disaster that occurred in the center of the city.

They are in pain and sympathetic, but will never know the truth.

Then, these claws chopped down at the statue of Lihuo Immortal without mercy.

It's like a sharp dagger cutting the cake.

The mortals were so frightened that they were numb, and even the mortal officials were at a loss as to what to do.

No one knew whether the equally strange and mysterious statue could protect them, or which side it was on.

But the answer was revealed later.

The statue of the Lihuo Immortal suddenly ignited boundless flames at this moment. In the flames, the female immortal seemed to come alive. She didn't even look at the claws that were chopping down at her. Instead, she looked down at all living beings. Well, she looked at Zhao Guanshan among all living beings. Then, she formed seals with her hands and transformed into a giant in golden armor!
Well, to be precise, it was Zhao Guanshan who resonated with the female fairy's statue at this moment and summoned the strongest golden-armored giant so far. The statue was only a statue after all, and it would not come alive. It was only used as a lighthouse, a medium for spreading, illuminating, and guiding the Lihuo Dao Fu, and the source of power for all Qigong practitioners.

If there really wants to be a fight, Zhao Guanshan has to go there himself.

However, after experiencing this catastrophe, the evolved Lihuo Immortal statue is very different from when it was in Linjiang Prefecture several years ago.

The Lihuo Taoist Talisman and the Mechanical Taoist Talisman have been greatly improved.

It can be clearly seen from the golden armored giant that the original golden armored giant was dozens of meters tall.

But now, it is as high as 800 meters. It is not only based on magical powers, but also covered with mechanical components on the outside.

Because there is an eighth-level spirit supply tower inside as the internal spiritual energy supply center.

At this moment, Zhao Guanshan himself almost sank, because the mechanical talisman was really fragrant.

In an instant, the mechanical components on the golden-armored giant changed rapidly and were assembled into an ultra-giant broadsword with a length of more than 1,200 meters.

This is not enough, the built-in eight-level spirit supply tower is running at full capacity, and the terrifying high-pressure spiritual energy is poured into it, making the blade as dazzling as the sun.

Zhao Guanshan casually used a broadsword as his starting attack skill - luring the enemy into action without firing, which excited the mortals below who were watching the fun and were not afraid of trouble.

There's no way, this looks too familiar.

This was a very common attack technique among mortal martial artists thousands or even hundreds of years ago.

Even now, the industrial technology of Zhenhai Dao Palace has been continuously iterating to develop powerful war mechas, but this kind of attack skill has not declined and is still a compulsory subject in the military.

Even the game is filled with countless similar actions.

In short, Zhao Guanshan did it on purpose.

Mortals are weak and sometimes not that important.

But sometimes it is really important.

Especially since there are still a large number of melted parts of the Lihuo Immortal statue that have not been awakened in other cities.

Mortals must fight for it.

And nothing could be more appropriate.

So at this moment, the original confusion and panic turned into a scene of cheering and encouraging their own people.

Humans are born to like fighting monsters.

The territory that Tianming had managed for hundreds of years collapsed in one day. No wonder it was so decisive and wanted to wipe out the entire city.

It’s too late!
All that is left for mortals is always an afterimage. If destiny would not give Zhao Guanshan the opportunity to pose, Zhao Guanshan would not be so stupid.

So in fact, while the mortals on the ground were admiring this familiar and spectacular scene, Zhao Guanshan had actually been fighting with those dozens of huge claws for thousands of rounds.

There is no such thing as a broadsword cutting through the stars. You were shocked and I frowned. You sneered and I laughed and left a message.

It's a head-on fight, a kill-for-kill fight, no one holds back, and a fight to the death as soon as they meet.

Zhao Guanshan used almost all of his tricks, and used all kinds of powerful moves without hesitation, not only to attack the claws of Destiny, but also to take the opportunity to attack other gloomy cities.

Attack the enemy and save him!

Although his sword would cause great suffering to countless people, he would not stop until hundreds of thousands of people died.

But Tianming really could only turn around and try his best to block it.

It doesn't matter if hundreds of thousands of people die, but it would be terrible if the truth came out.

The result was that when the mortals on the ground were enjoying the exciting third round, Zhao Guanshan had already fought with the Destiny for hundreds of thousands of rounds, and finally determined that neither of them could do anything to the other for the time being.

There is no way, Zhao Guanshan’s development time is too short.

There's no point in fighting any further.

Tianming needs to stabilize its basic foundation, because a city suddenly sank on the mortal side with a population of tens of millions. That is a huge matter, and various search and rescue teams and investigation teams will definitely be dispatched. The industrial technology of the mortals in Zhenhaidao Palace is not to be exaggerated.

And Zhao Guanshan also needs to stabilize his base.

That’s right, he directly cut off one tenth of the territory from the Zhenhai Dao Palace, and it was the other party who took the initiative to cut it off for him.

But there will come a moment when both sides will fight to the death.

This moment depends on when the son of destiny takes over the Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace.

Or it depends on what Zhao Guanshan can develop based on his base.

Perhaps in the future there will be a new idiom - "cutting flesh and giving it to Zhao", to express the deep friendship between the two sides.
