Chapter 280: The True Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations
"So, this guy's true strength has already reached the Dou Zun level," Xiao Yan muttered, his expression turning grim as he retreated swiftly, observing Han Feng charging toward him.
A Dou Zun level powerhouse, especially one enhanced by the powers of an otherworldly demon, was a formidable opponent. Even Xiao Yan, as a scion of the Xiao Clan, needed to approach this battle with caution.
Fortunately, he had already prepared for this before venturing into Spring God Ravine.
The Power of the Four Colored Fire Lotus
In Xiao Yan's hand, a brilliant, multicolored four colored flame lotus expanded, exuding a frighteningly destructive aura. Creating this technique, composed of four distinct Heavenly Flames, had left Xiao Yan's face pale, sapping much of his energy.
This was no ordinary attack. The Four Colored Fire Lotus, formed by his core Heavenly Flames, was a feat few could achieve. If these flames hadn't been tied to his soul, fusing them would have required soul strength at the Spirit Realm to pull off.
As he retreated, the incoming Han Feng, with his sinister grin, suddenly halted upon seeing the radiant lotus. His face contorted, and he instinctively tried to stop his forward momentum.
But it was too late.
The four colored lotus expanded ominously before him, its light reflecting in his widening pupils.
"This Power Belongs to Heavenly Flames!"
Han Feng's eyes narrowed in horror as he recognized the destructive force emanating from the fire lotus. His body surged backward as he hastily performed complex hand seals.
The dense, black demonic energy of Spring God Ravine surged toward him, coalescing into a protective barrier.
"Demonic Soul Battle Armor!"
Han Feng roared as the black mist condensed around him, forming a menacing, jet black suit of armor. Even as a former Demon King, he felt a twinge of fear at the sight of the fire lotus.
"Damn it! How does this brat have such terrifying power?"
But there was no time to ponder. The crystalline lotus swelled further before exploding with unimaginable force.
"Boom!"
The ground shook violently as the explosion reverberated throughout the depths of Spring God Ravine. Waves of destructive energy surged outward, splitting the rocky floor and sending massive boulders tumbling.
A Cataclysmic Aftermath
The explosion's shockwaves didn't stop at the ravine. The ground trembled across a thousand mile radius, causing structures in Spring Lake City to quiver. Even Spring God City, though farther away, felt the faint tremors.
When the dust and debris settled, the once deep Spring God Ravine had transformed into a wasteland filled with shattered rocks and massive fissures.
Xiao Yan had retreated to a safe distance during the explosion, watching his handiwork with a satisfied smirk.
"If this were a typical Dou Zun, this attack would have obliterated their body entirely. Even their soul might not escape unscathed."
In the past, when he had only three Heavenly Flames, the increase in power was noticeable but not overwhelming. Now, with four Heavenly Flames, the destructive potential had reached an entirely new level.
However, Xiao Yan didn't relax. His instincts warned him that Han Feng wasn't an ordinary Dou Zun. Given his connection to otherworldly forces, his endurance likely far exceeded normal limits.
Han Feng's Counterattack
Just as Xiao Yan swallowed a pill to recover his depleted soul power, a streak of black light burst through the debris, hurtling straight toward him.
"So, he survived after all!" Xiao Yan muttered, his expression sharp.
He conjured a spear of seven colored flames and hurled it toward the oncoming black light. The spear collided with the light mid air, the two forces grinding against each other until they dissipated.
Through the dissipating energy, a figure emerged a man wreathed in faint blue flames.
It was Han Feng.
But he looked nothing like before. His once pristine appearance was marred by gruesome wounds, and his energy fluctuated erratically. Despite his injuries, his lips curled into a sinister grin.
"Hah, I have to thank the Ocean Heart Flame for saving me just now. Otherwise, your sneak attack might have worked."
Han Feng's voice was hoarse but carried a chilling tone.
"You're an extraordinary genius, Xiao Yan. Even in the ancient Dou Qi Era, there were few like you. But that's what makes killing you all the more satisfying."
He let out a maniacal laugh as the surrounding demonic energy surged toward him once more, enveloping his body. His aura, though weakened, began to stabilize and even grow stronger than before.
The Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations
"He even managed to harness the Ocean Heart Flame after being possessed..." Xiao Yan frowned.
Han Feng's mastery over the stolen flame was a dangerous development, but Xiao Yan wasn't about to back down.
As Han Feng charged, Xiao Yan's hands moved swiftly, forming intricate seals.
"Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, Azure Lotus Transformation!"
A burst of azure fire erupted around Xiao Yan, causing his aura to skyrocket. His strength, which had lingered just below Dou Zun, surged until it was nearly indistinguishable from a true Dou Zun.
Han Feng's eyes narrowed. "Damn it, how many tricks does this brat have?"
Yet before his frustration could subside, Xiao Yan's hand seals shifted again.
"Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, Yin Yang Transformation!"
A black and white yin yang symbol appeared behind Xiao Yan, spinning gently as his aura broke past the Dou Zun threshold, becoming vast and overwhelming.
Han Feng's pupils constricted further.
"This brat's power just keeps growing!"
But Xiao Yan wasn't finished.
"Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Transformations, Seven Colored Glazed Transformation!"
A dazzling flame, a fusion of seven colored and crystalline fire, erupted from Xiao Yan's body. His strength soared to the peak of the one star Dou Zun realm.
"Let's End This!"
Feeling the overwhelming power coursing through his body, Xiao Yan grinned coldly.
"Come, let me see the true extent of a demon like you!"
With that, the battle resumed, each side unleashing their full might.
