Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Earth Core Flame!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

More intense struggles ensued as the light curtain of the Fu Tian Formation began showing cracks everywhere, and even the Fu Tian Cauldron was "crack, crack," continuously breaking apart.

The Fu Tian Formation was about to collapse completely.

"Not good!"

Long Xiaao’s pupils suddenly contracted, realizing that once the Fu Tian Formation crumbled, he would no longer have the means to contend with the Earth Fire Flame Ghost.

"Phew!"

Wen Tingguang’s condition was even more unbearable, his Divine Soul having been struck by a spiritual backlash; he spewed out a mouthful of blood, appearing extremely weak and fatigued.

"Dammit!"

Ling Feng had thought that Wen Tingguang and his allies could completely suppress the Earth Fire Flame Ghost, but at the final crisis, such a reversal occurred.

It seemed as if there was no chance for a turnaround.

However, at this very moment, the slightly immature voice of Zi Feng rang in his mind, shouting, "Master, I can’t hold back anymore!"

Before the words even fell, a streak of purple light, like lightning, shot toward the Earth Fire Flame Ghost!

"Zi Feng!"

Ling Feng’s eyelids twitched wildly—had this little guy gone mad?

Although Zi Feng indeed possessed some very special abilities, its own strength was pitifully weak. The Earth Fire Flame Ghost was entirely surrounded by fiery flames so intense that from a distance, they were unbearably hot, as if one were in a magma hell.

Zi Feng rushing upon that monster would likely mean it hadn’t even begun to absorb its lifespan before it would be headed to the Netherworld.

As the saying goes, "Humans die for wealth, as birds die for food." Ling Feng never would have guessed that the first Spirit Pet he had worked so hard to obtain would die in such a foolish way!

Yet, Zi Feng didn’t turn into a cinder as Ling Feng had imagined. Instead, it broke through the Earth Fire Flame Ghost’s fiery flames and directly burrowed into a wound on its chest.

"What?"

Ling Feng’s eyes almost popped out of his sockets—Zi Feng was completely unfazed by the Earth Fire Flame Ghost’s flames?

Even Long Xiaao and Wen Tingguang dared not get too close to the Earth Fire Flame Ghost, but Zi Feng was displaying such Heavenly Resistance!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Earth Fire Flame Ghost continued to struggle violently, seemingly unaware that something had entered its body.

After all, compared to the Earth Fire Flame Ghost, Zi Feng’s size was insignificant, not even a speck of dust.

Long Xiaao and Wen Tingguang’s faces were turning purple with the strain, as the Fu Tian Cauldron’s severe damage meant they had to expend almost three times the usual amount of Divine Will.

After such a long fight, waves of dizziness overwhelmed their minds as if they would roll their eyes back and faint completely at any moment.

"We can’t keep this up!"

Long Xiaao gritted his teeth and yelled to Wen Tingguang, "Elder Wen, the best plan now is to cease the effort and retreat immediately. Once I gather the nearby garrison, we can deal with this beast later!"

Life was of utmost importance.

The fact that Long Xiaao had managed to hold on for so long was already commendable. Faced with the threat of death, he finally conceded to the idea of retreat.

With their strength, although they couldn’t defeat the Earth Fire Flame Ghost head-on, escaping was well within their capabilities.

"This—," Wen Tingguang clenched his fists, wrestling with his own thoughts. If he retreated now, the surrounding cities with City Defense Formations might barely hold on, but the villages and towns would likely not withstand until reinforcements arrived—they would all perish in the fire.

But even if he persisted, it might not change anything.

In his moment of hesitation, a "crack" was heard and the light curtain of the Fu Tian Formation shattered!

Following that, the damaged Fu Tian Cauldron exploded with a "bang," turning into a sky full of fragments.

"There’s no other choice, Elder Wen, farewell!"

Ling Feng gritted his teeth, his figure flashed, and he was about to retreat.

However, he was surprised to find that the Earth Fire Flame Ghost, which had broken out of the Great Formation, didn’t attack him. Instead, it clutched its head and its enormous body heavily collapsed, rolling on the ground with its head in its arms.

"Huh?"

Ling Feng and Wen Tingguang were both startled and looked at each other, having no idea what had just happened.

"General Long, could it be that your Fu Tian Formation has inflicted a heavy blow to the Sea of Consciousness of the Earth Fire Flame Ghost?" Wen Tingguang asked in surprise.

"This..." Ling Feng’s mouth twitched a few times, and he chuckles, "That... could be."

He was also uncertain. Logically, since the Earth Fire Flame Ghost had awoken, it meant that the Fu Tian Formation had not successfully harmed the Divine Soul of the Earth Fire Flame Ghost. But if it wasn’t injured by the Fu Tian Formation, then why did it suddenly collapse?

"What’s going on? Has the monster been defeated?"

"Hahaha, that’s great! Fantastic!"

The warriors who had survived the crisis flew out from their hiding spots and knelt towards Wen Tingguang and Ling Feng in the sky in unison, "Thank you, esteemed seniors, for your display of Divine Skills!"

Ling Feng, also in disbelief, watched the Earth Fire Flame Ghost collapse, his eyelids twitching wildly. Could it be that Zi Feng was successful?

Just then, Zi Feng’s voice echoed in his mind, somewhat weak but clearly audible.

"Master, come over and help me, I can’t do it alone!"

Ling Feng’s pupils constricted, his heart surging with shock, but he still responded through their mental connection, "Help you? How can I help you?"

"Just come over, I’m currently fighting for control of this body. You are my master, and our Divine Souls are connected. The closer you get to me, the stronger my ability becomes."

"That can work? Alright, I believe you!"

Ling Feng clenched his teeth and, without any more hesitation, unfurled his Qinling Light Wings and flew towards the Earth Fire Flame Ghost.

Although he had his doubts, Ling Feng knew that his life was tied to Zi Feng’s. If he died, Zi Feng would perish as well. There was no reason for it to harm him.

"Huh? Kid Feng!"

Wen Tingguang and Ling Feng were both hesitant to approach the thrashing Earth Fire Flame Ghost on the ground, unsure of how to handle the situation. Suddenly, when Wen Tingguang saw Ling Feng flying towards the monster, he was taken aback.

"Kid, come back, are you looking for death?!"

Wen Tingguang shouted, knowing that with Ling Feng’s cultivation level, even a casual brush from the Earth Fire Flame Ghost could send him straight to the Netherworld.

However, Ling Feng seemed as if he hadn’t heard Wen Tingguang’s cry and even accelerated suddenly, crashing directly into the fiery flames surrounding the Earth Fire Flame Ghost.

"You stubborn kid!"

Wen Tingguang gritted his teeth, about to leap into action, but was stopped by Long Xiaoo beside him, "Elder Wen, calm down. That kid has rushed into the Earth Core Flame of the Earth Fire Flame Ghost; he’s doomed for sure!"

The Earth Fire Flame Ghost’s flames were the Earth Core Flame, several tens of thousands of degrees. Such high temperatures, even they, the Divine Origin Realm powerhouses, could not withstand. Let alone a youngster who just entered the Qi Condensation Realm.

"Damn it!" Wen Tingguang clenched his fists tightly, utterly unable to comprehend why Kid Feng, a normally intelligent boy, would make such a foolish mistake?

"Wait!" Long Xiaoo watched as Ling Feng rushed into the Earth Fire Flame Ghost’s surrounding flames but wasn’t immediately burned to a crisp. Instead, he got closer and closer, step by step!

His steps were incredibly steady as if the fiery flames didn’t affect him at all, but instead, he seemed very comfortable and at ease.

"Elder Wen, that... that kid didn’t die!"

Long Xiaoo’s eyelids twitched wildly, completely unable to understand – if even he wouldn’t dare to run into the Earth Core Flame, how could that kid possibly survive in it?
