BXBX NOVEL Chapter 55 - 55: Void Fire Burns Mu Yao to Ashes!
In the nick of time, Zheng Cheng deftly avoided the attack with a somersault.
The sharp wooden spike barely missed Zheng Cheng’s head, taking with it a few strands of his hair.
“Dammit…!”
A short distance away, Mu Yao cursed under her breath.
She had seized the fleeting moment when Zhao Yunxiao was immobilized, intending to first deal with this troublesome youngster.
Regrettably, she failed, he had managed to evade the assault.
“Isn’t this boy some kind of shadow priest? How is his reaction speed so fast?
Even faster than the average assassin…”
“Thud!”
Suddenly, a figure erupted from the dense overgrowth of vines.
The Qing Gang Sword in his hand flashed with sword light, aimed straight at her chest!
“Thud!”
The Qing Gang Sword pierced through, instantly skewering Mu Yao’s chest cavity.
“Where are you looking?”
Zhao Yunxiao coldly spat out, with a swift swing, his Qing Gang Sword slashed diagonally and severed the entire left arm of Mu Yao.
Mu Yao cried out painfully. A vast amount of delicate tendril-like vines sprouted from the wound, attempting to reconnect the severed parts.
At the same time, another burst of vines emerged from her, wildly wrangling about in all directions.
Zhao Yunxiao quickly moved to dodge, but it was too late!
At least seven or eight sharp vines pierced his body, splattering fresh blood.
“I will kill you!”
Mu Yao roared in fury. With the aid of her vines, her body began to amalgamate once again.
“Captain, get out of there!”
Jolted by the action, Xiao Ding yelled from behind, launching a flurry of wind blades that managed to stave off Mu Yao’s vines.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yunxiao took advantage of this and hurled the Qing Gang Sword in his hand.
“Clang!”
The Qing Gang Sword’s sharp edge immediately pierced Mu Yao’s neck!
A grating sound echoed as the Qing Gang Sword thrown by Zhao Yunxiao was lodged tight into Mu Yao’s neck.
A raspy voice emerged from Mu Yao’s throat.
“Ha ha, cough cough, ha cough cough.. “Physical attacks, they don’t work on me!”
“I will tear you to shreds…!”
“Thud…”
With her raspy roar, more tendrils of vines emerged from her body.
They transformed into sharp wooden spikes, raining down on Zhao Yunxiao!
“Captain! Get away!”
Covered in blood, Wang Ning also rushed in.
He slapped the ground with both hands, and a wall of earth rose up from the ground.
But the wooden spikes pierced the earthen wall, with a few curving around it to strike at Zhao Yunxiao.
“Captain, I’ll…’
“Get away!”
Zhao Yunxiao, his body punctured in a few places, roared furiously, grabbing Wang Ning and throwing him aside.
That move cost her the opportunity to escape.
Three wooden spikes were already within an inch of her.
“Thud… Boom!”
However, just then, a muffled explosion boomed beside her ear.
Expecting her imminent death, Zhao Yunxiao reflexively opened her eyes.
Three wooden spikes hovering before her eyes, shaking violently, like a python clutched at its vital point.
In the distance, Mu Yao, covered in spikes and tendrils, was wailing in pain.
Invisible flames raged violently on her body.
Void Fire Incineration Art!
The formerly confident Mu Yao had been continuously thwarted by the Night Watchmen, Zhao Yunxiao and others.
Particularly, Zheng Cheng. He single-handedly breached the defense line of the Black Sun Church’s Fallen Ones.
Mu Yao was already furious and seeing Zheng Cheng still alive fueled her rage further.
Who would have thought, this rage, would serve as the best fuel for Zheng Cheng!
One after another, tendrils and spikes burned under the illusory flames, collapsing, incinerating, and turning to ash at a pace visible to the naked eye.
Her entire body was absolutely miserable.
Large chunks of bark peeled off her body, transforming into ashes.
Yet, he, as an entire being, had no way to stop it.
“Fire!”
“Where’s the fire!” “My body!”
“Retreat! Retreat quickly!”
His continual screams filled his heart with terror, and he turned and ran.
However.
His emotions shifted from anger to terror, causing an even greater emotional turmoil.
Such emotional change, was the perfect fuel for the void fire spell.
“Boom…-!”
Almost everyone heard a violent burning sound in their ears.
As if a century-old withered giant tree was instantly reduced to ashes by a thunderbolt in a storm!
Finally.
About a dozen seconds later, the massive figure of Mu Yao fell heavily to the ground.
The huge tree-like body was burning and visibly decreasing at a visible rate, leaving only a half body size in just a dozen seconds.
“Wha, what happened?”
The several Night Guardians who had besieged Mu Yao looked at each other, especially Zhao Yunxiao.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw Zheng Cheng also breathing heavily.
The Bloodlust Magic Staff in his hand was still pointing at Mu Yao.
Zhao Yunxiao quickly connected the dots and blurted out, “Zheng Cheng… is this your new skill?”
Zheng Cheng didn’t stop Yao Zhixue and others from trying out his new skill in the instance.
He nodded and said, “Yes, it’s a new skill.”
“It uses spiritual fluctuations as fuel. The greater the target’s spiritual fluctuations, the stronger the power of the flames.”
“Sssss…”
Zhao Yunxiao sucked in a cold breath, “Using spiritual fluctuations as fuel…
what kind of strange skill is this?”
Zheng Cheng helplessly said, “Captain Zhao, you don’t worry about these things. Can you block the blood vessels on your body first?”
“All this blood, is enough for you to bleed for ten years during your period…”
“Fuck off!”
Zhao Yunxiao bluntly said, “I am a soul professional, the more I bleed, the stronger I get!”
She reached out and grabbed, and the Silver Dragon Spear that was stuck in the ground in the distance leaped up and was caught in her hand.
“Clap, clap, clap-
Zheng Cheng quickly applauded, “Good move- Let’s do it again!”
“Get lost!”
Zhao Yunxiao struggled to stand up, only to see the earth in the distance begin to undulate.
Above the earth, the flames transformed by Xu Chicheng trailed behind like bone maggots.
Thrust and fireball collide, causing a lot of heatwaves and shockwaves.
Zheng Cheng asked curiously, “Captain Zhao, why are these fallen ones from the Black Sun Church so powerful? You guys…”
Zhao Yunxiao gritted her teeth and said, “They are all reincarnated… or to be precise, semi-reincarnated professionists!”
“Part of their bodies have fused with the Different Races, but they are not true reincarnates. ”
“The fallen ones, in their pursuit of power, choose skills that are highly offensive and powerful when learning skills, and even change their bodies…”
“Boom!”
At this moment, the earth under the corpse of Mu Yao suddenly exploded, and a figure suddenly grabbed the body of Mu Yao and threw it into the distance.
“Elemental! Swallow him!”
“Mu Yao… damn it!”
Elemental yelled, with no hesitation she opened her mouth wide and swallowed half of Mu Yao’s corpse!
“Night Guardians, dare to kill my God’s messenger, I will swallow you all!”
“Boom-I”
The body of the raging Elemental suddenly emitted a low rumbling noise, and the half body of Mu Yao that was swallowed suddenly exploded in her mouth.
One after another, unreal flames welled up from inside her, and in an instant they were engulfed by them!
“Earth Monster! What are you feeding me… Ah!” Zheng Cheng gawked, unable to believe his eyes.
Did he just swallow the void fire?
How fortuitous!
He brandished the Bloodlust Magic Staff, and another Void Fire Spell was thrown at the Elemental.
