A week later.
During this past week, aside from meditating to recover his magic energy, Fang Yu was either looting or on his way to loot.
Thanks to his relentless efforts, he had snatched more than a dozen Spirit Seed Fragments from demons. Bullying the weak really was something one could get addicted to.
Filled with anticipation, Fang Yu continued deeper into the Scorching Plains North Horn.
Another half day later.
At this moment, his view a hundred meters ahead was obscured by layers of murky sand and dust.
When Fang Yu approached the dust had already settled, revealing the surrounding landscape before his eyes.
The scorching heat had baked the ground until it was cracked, and dark-red flames flickered out from the fissures.
"A Spirit Seed. Only a Spirit Seed can cause flames to change color."
Fang Yu's eyes lit up with delight.
Aside from the incredible luck of picking up a Fire Spirit Seed when he had first entered, he had never encountered another one.
Fang Yu carefully observed the area. This place had obviously not formed recently. Wherever a treasure of this level existed, demons would usually guard it. Spirit Seeds were valuable to demons as well, as they could grow stronger by absorbing the lingering elemental aura.
Fang Yu swept his gaze across the surroundings. Even after probing with his Spiritual Sense, he could not detect any demonic presence.
It was hiding well.
Looks like it was a real old fox.
"Little Snow Maiden!"
Fang Yu summoned the Little Snow Maiden and immediately had her merge with him.
"Ice Domain!"
A frosty white radiance spread outward as the domain unfolded. Snowflakes began to drift through the air, and frost instantly spread across the surroundings.
Compared to the blazing heat of the Scorching Plains North Horn, Fang Yu now radiated an aura of extreme cold. Ice and fire intertwined as freezing frost spread while the fire elements weakened.
After expanding his domain, Fang Yu immediately completed an Ice Element Star Constellation. Seven exquisite icy patterns appeared around him, making his entire figure seem even more imposing.
"Ice Rain!"
Gathering Ice Element energy into his right hand, Fang Yu thrust it toward the sky.
In an instant, snow filled the heavens and hailstones came crashing down. Each hailstone was the size of a fist, smashing countless rocks and hardened earth apart.
The hailstones grew larger and larger, falling like a barrage of spears. As they struck the ground, deep craters exploded across the land.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!!
As Fang Yu's assault intensified, the earth suddenly let out a tremendous rumble. The ground trembled violently as soil churned upward, and the disturbance became greater and greater.
"So, you're finally done hiding."
Seeing the ground beneath him split apart, Fang Yu quickly retreated to avoid the flying debris.
BOOM~~~~~~~~
The earth's surface was violently torn open. The frost that had frozen across the ground shattered completely, turning into countless sparkling ice crystals that scattered through the sky.
The next moment, a gigantic beast engulfed in dark-red flames leapt high into the air.
Its entire body was covered in dark-red fire. Its limbs were exceptionally muscular, while its eyes glowed with an eerie crimson light as they glared furiously at Fang Yu.
The Flame Behemoth exhaled two streams of scorching breath.
The beast had been peacefully sleeping in its home, only for disaster to descend from the sky. At this moment, it was utterly enraged.
Fang Yu's gaze moved past the Flame Behemoth.
Deep within the pit behind it, he could sense a pure fire aura.
It seemed the Spirit Seed was hidden there.
Afterward, Fang Yu dismissed the Ice Domain.
Since it was not a Commander-level creature, there was no need to keep wasting magic energy.
This Flame Behemoth was not particularly powerful.
"ROAR!!!!!!!!"
The Flame Behemoth let out an enraged roar. Opening its enormous jaws, dark-red energy rapidly gathered together as a dark-red sphere of molten lava gradually expanded.
The lava sphere shot toward Fang Yu like an artillery shell.
Silver radiance flashed within Fang Yu's eyes as he cast the Space Element spell Blink.
A deep silver spatial tunnel appeared before him. Fang Yu stepped into it and instantly relocated over a hundred meters away, easily avoiding the Flame Behemoth's lava sphere.
The lava sphere struck the spot where Fang Yu had been standing moments earlier, blasting out a massive crater.
"Ice Chains!"
Frost-white ice rapidly condensed, forming an enormous chain of ice that lashed toward the Flame Behemoth.
Even a demon with a fire bloodline would not dare take such an attack head-on. At that moment, the Flame Behemoth gathered another dark-red pillar of flame within its jaws and fired it straight ahead like a blazing laser.
The dark-red flame pillar collided with the frost-white ice chain in midair. A deafening explosion echoed through the area as the flame pillar dissipated and the ice chain shattered.
Seeing this, radiance flashed around Fang Yu once again as his stars linked together at incredible speed, casting another spell.
"Extreme Frost Ice Peaks!"
He pushed the power of his Ice Element to its absolute limit before driving the extreme frost deep into the ground with a single punch.
In an instant, towering ice peaks burst through the earth, shattering the surface as they erupted upward. One after another, the terrifying ice peaks swallowed the area where the Flame Behemoth stood, surging endlessly from below.
Seeing this, the Flame Behemoth was horrified.
It gathered all its strength into its hind legs and leapt high into the air, trying to escape the area.
"You think you can get away?"
Silver radiance flashed within Fang Yu's eyes.
"Space Rhythm: Compression!"
The instant the Flame Behemoth jumped, space itself trembled.
A formless diamond-shaped spatial field enveloped the Flame Behemoth, making it feel as though countless massive lead weights had been shackled to its body.
Boom!
The Flame Behemoth crashed back to the ground.
At that exact moment, countless ice peaks erupted from beneath the earth. The ground churned violently as colossal pillars of ice pierced upward without mercy, impaling the Flame Behemoth's massive body.
Its dark-red flames could not protect its enormous frame.
One ice peak after another pierced through its hide and deep into its flesh. Blood poured from the wounds, spraying everywhere and staining the icy landscape crimson.
"Roar... Roar..."
The Flame Behemoth let out agonized cries.
The pain was unbearable.
Even losing limbs or its tail had never caused it such suffering.
This was nothing less than a slow execution.
"Ice Explosion!"
Fang Yu's eyes reflected the towering ice peaks.
The Ice Element energy within them immediately surged like soaring dragons. The next moment, explosions erupted one after another, their thunderous blasts echoing without end.
The gigantic Flame Behemoth was blown apart by the overwhelming force.
A gruesome rain of blood scattered across the battlefield. The dark-red flames surrounding its body were extinguished, leaving behind only its mangled corpse.
It was completely dead.
Fang Yu condensed a massive blade of ice and snow before stepping forward to carve apart the Flame Behemoth's ruined corpse, hoping it had dropped something valuable.
"What a shame. Nothing at all. Completely worthless."
Fang Yu shook his head with a sigh.
Afterward, he jumped into the pit where the Flame Behemoth had been hiding.
Deep underground, a cluster of dark-red flames emitted an intense blaze.
Yet Fang Yu was completely unafraid.
Azure spiritual flames ignited around his body.
Resisting the scorching heat, Fang Yu approached the dark-red spiritual flame.
As he reached out and touched it, an intense burning sensation spread from his palm throughout his entire body.
At first, the heat was almost unbearable.
But it was soon suppressed by the azure flames surrounding him.
Fang Yu rubbed his chin.
Judging from its aura, this Dark Flame could be considered a top-grade Spirit Fire.
Looking at the Spirit Seed before him, Fang Yu unceremoniously claimed ownership.
He took out a specially prepared vessel and carefully sealed the Spirit Seed inside.
Now that the Spirit Fire had been taken away, the poor Flame Behemoth had lost both its treasured flame and its life.
What a miserable end.
After securing the Spirit Seed, Fang Yu continued onward.
Next stop the harvest must continue.
