Chapter 584: The Might of Heaven Tier Fire Ar
584 The Might of Heaven Tier Fire Ar
"Boom!"
The first explosion occurred from the lotus that had been hit by the arrow. That explosion hit a few other petals and so on, creating a chain of explosions that engulfed Alex"s group and a few people from the enemy side.
However, Alex managed to use his teleportation array to appear beside Stina and Kyle while bringing Sherry with him. He made a barrier of flame using his Pure Fire to protect everyone from the explosion. As for the enemies, they were not lucky enough to escape and were burned into ashes.
Alex furrowed his eyebrows and couldn"t help but suck a cold breath. He muttered to himself while recalling a certain figure in his mind. "Is Rose going to have something like this? An arrow that can"t miss or can be controlled at any time? An arrow that has more power than my Spear Throwing Art?"
He didn"t care about the explosion, because he could see the wonder of a bow user. The thought about the possibility made him smile because he was happy his disciple had so much room to grow.
On the other hand, Alex also had no time to think about this. He quickly shook his head and looked at the mighty flame from the lotus. The fire was blazing everywhere and looked terrifying.
*Stomp!* The fire suddenly moved after the sound like someone controlled it. The enemies who weren"t hit by the explosion looked at the fire and gasped. "This…"
Alex gathered the fire to his side with a wave of his hand. This fire was Stina"s and Kyle"s fire. As for him, he was their master as well as the owner of Pure Fire that strengthened their fire, it was possible to control the fire to a certain extent.
"Fire Wave Emission."
He even used his technique to control this fire, creating a few normal size spears and pointing them at the enemies. These spears were far stronger than his firebirds, and if they weren"t careful, they might lose their life in an instant.
Alex released those spears at the same time, raining the enemies down with his spears.
"Not good. Everyone, be careful!"
The shout resounded across the forest. The Black Devil Sect disciples drew their weapons and struck or dodged these fire spears. Nonetheless, no matter what they did, the result wasn"t so great for them. The spear that they struck carried Alex"s soul as it automatically exploded the moment it touched their sword, whereas the spears would explode the moment they flew past the people. In other words, the ones that dodged the spears weren"t so lucky. They somehow created a powerful s.h.i.+eld to protect themselves, but Alex"s Pure Fire was far stronger. It broke a portion of their s.h.i.+elds and heavily injured them.
Alex looked around and saw that only one person died. It was surprising for him and made him wonder if they were this strong or because they were lucky. However, it would seem that most of them were heavily injured, so he gave a signal toward Sherry and the others.
Phoenixes" cries echoed in everyone"s ears as they saw the four phoenixes that devastated them earlier reappear. For the heavily injured people, their hearts skipped a beat because they were sure the phoenixes were going to kill them.
Thinking upon that point, the disciples" faces turned pale. However, the phoenixes actually didn"t fly toward them. Instead, they were collecting the flames around the area, including the flame that was produced earlier.
Not long after, Alex"s phoenix absorbed the other three phoenixes and the flame they had collected. The phoenix turned into a huge ball, carrying a terrifying amount of Fire Energy. It might be the first time he used this technique as this was the only Heaven Tier Fire Art he had at the moment.
The people were shocked by this Fireball and instantly realized they needed to destroy this. The bow user released another arrow that had destroyed the fire lotus earlier. His arrow flew toward the fireball without any restriction, there wasn"t even a single attack from Sherry and the others to prevent the arrow from reaching the fireball.
The first reason they allowed this was because of Alex"s control of his Pure Fire. He could make the Fire harmless to his friend while becoming a harbinger of death to his enemies. In other words, even if the arrow could destroy it, they would be fine. As for the second reason…
The enemy"s arrow that flew toward the fireball melted before reaching it and slowly turning into fuel for the fireball. No one had a calm expression at this point as they raised their weapons to attack the fireball.
"Gigantic Wind!"
"Sword Heaven Gift!"
…
Around ten attacks flew toward the fireball but melted by the intense heat. On the other hand, Moar also saw this fireball that brightened the whole area like the sun and felt the scorching heat even from afar.
"This is not good! Prepare the barriers!" Moar, who just went chasing Alex"s group to the forest after waiting for some time, halted his movement and shouted. He noticed the abnormality in that fireball and shuddered.
All disciples obeyed him without wasting a single second because they felt dread upon seeing the fireball.
"Thirty seconds…" Alex muttered himself. The fireball needed to gather enough energy from the surroundings for up to thirty seconds. This was the only weakness of this attack. In fact, there were only three ways to stop this attack. Firstly, they could shatter the fireball with a stronger power such as peak Martial Monarch if not Martial Saint. Secondly, they could attack Alex instead of the fireball. And the last way was to stop him by using elemental advantage.
Out of the three ways, none of them was able to stop him. They didn"t have a powerful person at peak Martial Monarch stage, let alone Martial Saint. In case they attacked Alex instead of this fireball, Sherry and the others were ready to protect him with their lives. Lastly, with Alex"s Pure Fire, there was nothing that could be said as an elemental advantage, including Letizia"s Pure Ice Element because his Pure Fire already evolved.
After finis.h.i.+ng the counts, Alex finally activated the fireball as it slowly shone brightly. He raised his hand before clutching. The fireball that was 30 meters in diameter flew a bit higher to the sky.
The flame started gus.h.i.+ng out of the fireball. Just like a water balloon popped out and blasted all the water inside, this fire also did such a thing but with a ma.s.sive explosion.
"h.e.l.l Inferno!" Alex said with a low voice, but those who heard him felt it was the sound of the satan, giving them an invitation to h.e.l.l.
"Boom!"
The explosion was like none other. It engulfed everything in a five hundred meters radius before the fire shot up to the sky, alarming everyone around the area, including the people from other influences.
The people couldn"t even utter a single word before turning into ashes. It had the power similar to Leoz"s ultimate attack that devastated the Joyful Union Sect. The difference between their power was Leoz had his True Spirit Body and used all of his power. In contrast, Alex had his evolved Pure Fire and used eighty percent of his power while having a weaker cultivation base than Leoz.
However, this also showed how overpowered his Pure Fire was. The fire slowly disappeared with many people and the whole forest. All people inside the forest except Alex"s group died, and around a hundred people in the sky died because their barrier was broken by the explosion.
"Ha… Ha…" Alex fell on his knees, panting. It was truly exhausting to use such a technique.
Not far from him, Anna opened her eyes wide as she saw the fire was avoiding her. Even the ground beneath her feet was saved. The same also applied to the other spirits, but Anna was the closest one to Alex and appeared beside him with her shocked expression.
Her expression turned from shocked into angry after seeing Alex"s exhausted state. "Alex, what are you doing?!"
Anna grabbed his collar and pulled him up. The anger in her heart wasn"t because of Alex"s irrational decision, she was mad because of his current condition.
"Don"t worry. I only use eighty percent of my power, so I have enough strength to teleport us away before the enemy could come to this place." Alex smiled, a.s.suring her. "Haiz, if only I am a peak Martial Emperor or Martial Monarch, I can kill every member of Black Devil Sect instead of leaving a hundred of them alive."
"I am not talking about this technique. I am asking why you would do such a thing and exhaust yourself like this!" Anna snarled, glaring at Alex fiercely.
"Elder Sister Anna…" Sherry walked toward her and wanted to stop her, but Anna"s expression stopped her instead.
"Anna, Stop it for now. We still need to kill the rest." Artur finally arrived at their side. He looked at a hundred people in the sky. They had shocked expressions, but they could see a few of them had recovered, including Moar, who was shouting to his people. Not long after, half of them swallowed a pill, which they believed to be Berserk Pills.
"That"s right. I will protect him here, so all of you can take over." Greg appeared in front of Alex while raising his s.h.i.+eld.
The rest of the spirits also appeared one by one as they looked toward the people in the sky.
"There are only one hundred of them left, I believe all of you can finish it within thirty minutes. I will take care of the undoing of this barrier since the other influences would most likely come to this area. It would be a different matter whether they are brave enough to come or not. Of course, I will move around the area to search for s.p.a.ce Rings… I just hope they are not destroyed yet because of your attack, Alex." Anya appeared, gave her order, and left.
It was such as she said, Alex"s group needed to finish this battle as soon as possible. Although Nelson, Jeanne, and Leoz weren"t here, the spirits weren"t that weak, especially after killing so many monsters and people. All of them managed to level up, and the lowest one was Greg with 8-Star Martial Emperor, but he almost leveled up to 9-Star Martial Emperor. He believed they could reach 9-Star if not 10-Star after killing the reinforcement from Black Devil Sect.
It might be such a shame to enter the Underworld before reaching Martial Monarch, but there should be no other groups that could kill them easily since the highest should be 5-Star Martial Monarch.
Anna gritted her teeth before releasing her hands. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Alex. "Fine, you can go sit here and relax. If you join again, you can see what I"m going to do to you."
Alex only smiled gently. "Yes. I won"t do anything. Anyway, thanks for worrying me, Anna."
Anna didn"t say anything and flew to the sky, followed by the other spirits and the contracted beasts.
On the other hand, Alex sat down and let out a long sigh. He had used this Peak Heaven Tier Martial Art in his Simulation Room, and the result was devastating like this. It used a huge amount of Mental Energy to control the attack to prevent any allies from getting hit. In fact, if he had a hundred subordinates around him, only ten to fifteen people would survive. After all, this Peak Heaven Tier Fire Art attacked both allies and enemies.
He trained so hard and took more time to perfect this technique than any other Sword or Spear Technique because he wanted absolutely sure he could control it. Alex chuckled as he glanced at Greg before shaking his head. He knew Greg would watch his every movement, so he just sat back and watched how the Black Devil Sect were butchered.
