"Blazing Flame Blade Technique!"
Seeing the puppets closing in fast, Old Chan Chu hastily unleashed a Dou Technique, fighting desperately to push back Tian Huo Zun Zhe.
Then, he quickly swung his broadsword several times.
Several blazing red sword beams, flickering with flames, slashed out at high speed.
In the blink of an eye, they collided with the three Earth Demon Puppet units.
Boom!
A series of explosive blasts echoed out one after another.
The puppets were sent flying backward.
One of them—a weaker one at the Six-Star Dou Zong level—even had a few gashes appear on its abdomen.
However, just as Old Chan Chu repelled the Earth Demon Puppets, Tian Huo Zun Zhe had already steadied himself and came slashing down again with his longsword!
"Looks like it's about time to upgrade those Earth Demon Puppets... Six- or Seven-Star Dou Zong level is starting to fall behind my current strength," Lin Feng muttered to himself as he watched the three puppets being knocked back.
He then immediately regained control over the trio of puppets, coordinating their assault with Tian Huo Zun Zhe to continue pressuring Old Chan Chu.
At the same time, he swiftly extended both hands and formed a series of hand seals.
The energy stored within two nearby fire-attribute magic cores surged wildly, pouring in massive quantities into his body.
Utilizing the array's feature that allowed energy to be transferred freely to other locations, he redirected the energy straight to the area beside Old Chan Chu.
"Grand Profound · Sacred Flame Piercing Heart!"
As Lin Feng's low shout rang out, a massive torrent of violent emerald flames suddenly erupted not far from Old Chan Chu.
The flames surged wildly, finally taking the shape of a gigantic, over-twenty-meter-long, six-to-seven-meter-wide emerald fire dragon.
Empowered by the two magic cores, the surface of the fire dragon's body pulsed with terrifying might.
Under the extreme heat, even the space around it began to distort.
Even though Old Chan Chu was a Nine-Star Dou Zong expert, he didn't dare to underestimate a monstrous fire dragon formed by Heavenly Flame.
Still, a fire dragon of such terrifying power came with a heavy price.
The two fire-attribute magic cores that had supplied energy to the formation had dimmed by more than half the moment the dragon finished forming.
"Roaaar!"
The fire dragon suddenly shot forward, tearing through the air with visible spatial ripples, aiming straight for Old Chan Chu's heart!
"Despicable scoundrel! Not only are you ganging up on me, but now you're even sneak attacking?!"
Seeing the fire dragon coming at him, Old Chan Chu cursed furiously.
As for the fact that he had previously ambushed others? He'd completely forgotten about it.
After all, people only realize how disgusting something is when they're the one suffering from it.
Immediately, Old Chan Chu rapidly drew Dou Qi from the surrounding world and channeled it into the longsword in his hand.
"Blazing Flame Blade Technique!"
With a loud roar, the flame-covered sword in his hand burst into brilliant light.
Then, he slashed fiercely at the charging fire dragon!
At the moment his sword came down, a massive fire blade beam—dozens of meters long—instantly condensed into form.
It swept across the sky like lightning, slicing toward the fire dragon with terrifying momentum!
The sword beam was so powerful that it left pitch-black cracks in space along its path.
But right after releasing that blow, Old Chan Chu's already wrinkled face turned visibly pale.
Clearly, the earlier attack had consumed a considerable amount of his strength.
Yet before he could even catch his breath, the three puppets charged at him once more!
"Damn it!"
Under the relentless siege, Old Chan Chu was beyond irritated—frustrated to the point of madness.
That Nine-Star Dou Zong-level soul body—if it were outside the ruins—he could rely on his powerful soul power and high-class Dou Techniques to completely suppress it.
If that were the case, once he dealt with the soul body, handling the others would be much easier.
But inside this strange ruin, the moment one's soul power extended more than a hundred meters, a mysterious force would immediately attack.
And at such a short distance, any Dou Zong-level expert could cross it in less than a second.
As a result, his soul power was essentially unusable in this situation.
Otherwise, with his sharp perception and soul-based attacks, he could've made those people suffer quite a bit.
Meanwhile, the fire dragon and the sword beam sliced through the air and collided in less than a blink.
Yet, instead of exploding on contact as expected, the two attacks began merging and corroding each other mid-air.
However, when it came to fire, Heavenly Flame was the ruler of all.
What Lin Feng wielded was the Glazed Lotus Heart Flame—a flame that could rival even the eleventh-ranked Bone-Chilling Flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking.
Naturally, it far outclassed Old Chan Chu's Rank 8 Beast Flame.
As such, the crimson flames on the sword beam instantly weakened the moment they touched the emerald fire dragon.
Boom!
The sky had only just calmed down when the two clashing Dou Techniques suddenly exploded violently!
An earth-shattering shockwave erupted from the collision, bursting forth with world-destroying power!
The terrifying wave of fire swept across the entire formation!
When the fiery shockwave slammed into the formation's energy cauldron like a wild, unrestrained beast, even the cauldron walls began to crack.
Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately channeled more energy from the magic cores and fed it into the cauldron walls, hastily repairing the fractures.
After Lin Feng's first powerful move exhausted Old Chan Chu, Tian Huo Zun Zhe knew—it was now his turn to end this.
With a slight gesture of his finger, the white storage ring on Lin Feng's hand flickered with light.
In an instant, five translucent jade bottles, each the size of a human head, flew toward him.
Inside each bottle was a sealed Beast Flame seed.
Pa!
The moment the bottles reached Tian Huo Zun Zhe, he shattered them using Dou Qi.
Immediately, five distinct-colored Rank 7 Beast Flames burst into the air.
These flames were part of the collection Lin Feng had gathered during his many travels.
Most of the flames had already been fed to the Transforming Flame Seed, but he had kept a few in reserve and handed them over to Tian Huo Zun Zhe for emergencies.
While these were only Rank 7 Beast Flames, their quality was quite high.
So their overall power was still respectable.
Since Tian Huo Zun Zhe currently didn't have a Heavenly Flame in hand, these flames were essential for performing the Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique.
As the five flames appeared, Tian Huo Zun Zhe immediately used his powerful soul force to take control.
"Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique!"
In the next instant, his palms suddenly pressed together, his hands forming a complex sequence of seals.
He was intimately familiar with this fire-controlling technique, so as his hand seals rapidly shifted—the five flames quickly condensed into five fiery spirits: Wolf, Leopard, Lion, Tiger, and Flood Dragon.
The five fire spirits spiraled around Tian Huo Zun Zhe's body.
Each radiated with a different hue, and the intense heat from them distorted the space around them.
"Lin Feng, watch my movements carefully!" Tian Huo Zun Zhe called out, changing his hand seals again.
