When he finished his sentence, the Harbinger of Fire turned around and jumped. His body shattered into countless red specks of light and blended into the air.
“What is this… a personal customer service officer? Or an earth G.o.d that works twenty-four-hour s.h.i.+fts?” Gao Peng could not insult him enough. How could he leave without saying a thing?
“They’re the Harbingers of Fire,” the old Bi Fang said to Flamy. In actual fact, he was explaining to Gao Peng.
“What’s the ident.i.ty of this Harbinger of Fire?” Gao Peng asked in confusion.
“I don’t know.” The old Bi Fang shook his head as if reluctant to discuss further. “Come on, let’s go look for someone who can go up against Flamy.”
Gao Peng nodded his head, his eyes gleaming.
Goldie put his arms behind his back and mimicked the way Gao Peng walked, swaying his head while walking behind Gao Peng.
There was a lake in the small valley. Lakes were very rare on the plane of the Mysterious Fire World. There were even more magma lakes here than there were lakes.
Being able to occupy and possess the lakes was the best evidence of one’s ability.
A scarlet Aquatic Dragon lay on the bank beside the lake.
The Aquatic Dragon was a type of dragon. In reality, bloodline no longer had much of an effect on monsters once they were at the level of Quasi G.o.ds.
The method which several Aquatic Dragons used to increase their ability was to purify their blood and then evolve in the direction of their dragon ancestors.
There were other Aquatic Dragons who continued strengthening themselves based on their true form. Once they reached the point of advanced power, whether or not they were real dragons no longer made any difference.
Even if they were Aquatic Dragons, they were nevertheless more powerful than many true dragons.
The Aquatic Dragon next to the lake evidently belonged to the latter group.
He lay by the lakeside, basking in the sun and enjoying the hot breeze. The corners of his lips were turned upwards.
Right now, he was happy.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked outside the valley in confusion. Thereafter, his expression changed drastically, and he turned around in a bid to fly away, no longer wanting his home.
But it was already too late.
A wall of fire blocked his path. The green wall of fire transformed into a sea of flames that covered him.
Front and back, up and down, left and right, he was left with only one exit. It was in the direction behind him.
The Aquatic Dragon shook its body, turned his head and roared in grief and indignation, “This strong creature, please just tell me if I offended you. I’ll change!!!”
He had a very strong presence.
His worlds were awfully fearful…
The Aquatic Dragon saw a group of powerful beings gather around him and scrutinize him from head to toe. The Aquatic Dragon had never encountered such gazes, but they made his hair stand on end.
Of course, if the Aquatic Dragon had gone to the wet market before, he would probably know what kind of gazes these were.
“It’s not him,” a random ball said in human words.
The Aquatic Dragon heaved a sigh of relief. After this ball spoke, he sensed the murderous aura fixed on him lessen by a few degrees.
The Aquatic Dragon blinked his slightly dry eyes. Only in the end did he ascertain that this was not a ball, but a bird.
“I’ll ask, and you’ll answer. If I find your answer satisfactory, I’ll let you off.”
“Go ahead.” The Aquatic Dragon dared not rebel.
“Is there anyone nearby who embarked on the Fire-type Path of Usurpation?” Gao Peng stared into the eyes of the Aquatic Dragon.
The face of the Aquatic Dragon was completely blank.
What was the Fire-type Path of Usurpation…
Goldie came forth and said secretively into Gao Peng’s ear, “Gao Peng, this is a boorish dragon.”
“I can tell.” Gao Peng felt frustrated. He did not expect this Aquatic Dragon to have never heard of the Fire-type Path of Usurpation.
But it was normal too. The Eternal Green Crow was a G.o.d, and the Bi Fang clan was also a clan of mythical creatures that stretched back into ancient history. It was not strange that they knew about the Path of Usurpation.
Even Gao Peng had only found out about this thing after seeing the monster description.
“What I mean is, are there any stronger creatures around here? Those with very strong combat power in the same tier,” Gao Peng frowned and said. The noise they had created from the fuss earlier was a little loud. If they did not move quickly, that monster would escape.
“Oh, oh. I know this. There’s a magma lake over there. Inside the magma lake, there’s a very formidable old hedgehog. The thorns all over his body are very disgusting.”
At present, a 15-meter long hedgehog that was completely gold in color was looking vigilantly in the direction of Gao Peng and the rest from the bottom of the magma lake. Earlier, he had sensed a very powerful aura. Although it was not directed at him, he had no choice but to be cautious when it was so near him.
“I found him. He’s just below. I sense him.” The hedgehog heard an icy voice from above him.
The next moment, a powerful breath latched onto him.
The hedgehog’s expression changed abruptly.
The Voucher of Fire within his body suddenly leaped up, as if there was something above him that was attracting it.
A feeling was mysteriously and inexorably, guiding it to devour the thing above it.
The magma lake was boiling fiercely. The gold-red magma bubbled out, just like an invisible giant hand was grabbing the lake.
Along with it, the hedgehog in the magma lake was also taken out.
Sphere after sphere of magma fell downwards.
Creating large pits one after another.
The fiery magma spurted.
In the sky, a large golden hedgehog glared as its four short legs struggled frantically. A shrill cry of anger came from its mouth!
“Eeeee…”
“Fight one round against me. You can leave if you win.” Flamy shouted loudly in anger. The flames curled around her entire body transformed into a fire dragon that rushed towards the hedgehog.
The hedgehog cursed silently. She will let me leave if I win. What if I lose?
You mother bird, how can you be so cruel?
The hedgehog also summoned the flames to duel against Flamy.
But it had to be mentioned that Flamy had taken quite good care of herself during her time in the Bi Fang Ancestral Land. Of course, this did not refer to her physical size but to her control of flames.
There was no method to speak of when it came to battles between monsters. But just like different arrangements of carbon atoms could form charcoal and diamonds.
The power that varying arrangements of elements could release was also as different as heaven and earth!
The Bi Fang Clan had been around for many generations. Naturally, it had its unique understanding and legacies.
Gao Peng could palpably sense that the manner and power of Flamy’s flames were significantly more advanced than before.
The ability of this Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog was not weak. It was a Level 97 legendary Quasi G.o.d. None of the ordinary Quasi G.o.ds were a match for him. However, he was unexpectedly at the losing end when he was up against Flamy.
Gao Peng looked on from the side and managed to figure out some methods.
Flamy had an advantage in terms of her special characteristics.
Her special characteristic, Wings of Fire, substantially increased her resistance towards fire elements. This Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog could not cause much harm to Flamy. On the contrary, the temperature of Flamy’s flames was exceptionally high. Her flames could burn a hole through the body of the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog as long as they fell on his body.
Half of all the abilities of the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog were related to close-range combat. The densely-packed and golden thorns on his back were definitely not for show.
But Flamy simply refused to engage in close-range combat with him and kept treating him like a kite on a string.
Retreat when the enemy attacks and attack when the enemy retreats.
They were completely unafraid of the explosion of elements from afar.
Halfway through the battle, the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog could no longer tolerate it.
Since I can’t beat you, then it’s fine for me not to fight with you, right?
The Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog turned around to escape.
Only for his path to be blocked by a wall of fire.
With a cry, Flamy rushed forth…
“Not bad. You defeated the opponent on your own without relying on us in this battle.” The old Bi Fang felt very pleased. This was definitely for the best.
After all, the Bi Fang Clan wanted to nurture a true warrior and not a coward who could only rely on the old seniors to make a move.
A reddish-golden badge flew out from inside the burnt body of the Golden Blaze Demon Earth Hedgehog lying on the ground and merged into Flamy’s body.
Two scarlet rays shot out from Flamy’s eyes. Flamy flapped her wings and set off a fire tornado.
The breath within Flamy’s body rose dramatically.
“Almost there. As long as you attack another few compet.i.tors, your blood will complete one round of transformation,” the old Bi Fang said in relief.
“Transformation?” Gao Peng was confused.
The old Bi Fang was evidently in very good spirits. “One huge transformation can generate a thorough increase in her power. It may even cause her to evolve.”
Gao Peng thought for a very long time before realizing it. Wasn’t this precisely an advancement in grade…
After glancing at Flamy, who was still of legendary grade, Gao Peng sank into deep thought.
