Chapter 220. Black Eats Black
At the foot of Gray Python Mountain, several students activated their demon-treading equipment and rapidly sprinted towards the distant red and green mountains.
These students were all very fast, covering hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, and a moment later, they were already a kilometer away.
"We'll split up. Once we shake off those French guys, we'll regroup!" Angelo, an Italy student, said.
The others nodded and quickly helped Angelo leave.
This team of five immediately fled in five different directions. Soon after, two or three more teams appeared there, staring in the directions the others had left, unsure who to pursue.
"Damn it, who took the Stone Heart? That's the most valuable thing. Our group of nearly twenty people finally managed to deal with the Mountain Summit Rock Demon. In terms of credit, we French contributed the most. Why should they take the Stone Heart!" a French student said, extremely annoyed.
"Chase them, they can't have run far. We can't let them get away with it so easily!" Another Cherry Blossom student was also fuming.
Their Cherry Blossom team had also put in a lot of effort in this operation; one student was even severely injured. If they couldn't find a Healing Mage soon, this student would be eliminated.
"You go this way, we go this way, and you few go after the woman!" commanded Lyon, the French student.
Not long after entering this twisted space, their group saw a very rare Mountain Summit Rock Demon on the peak of the mountain. The Mountain Summit Rock Demon itself was highly valuable; its heart was practically a Rock Element power core. It could single-handedly power a small City's construction, and architects greatly needed it.
Because the target was large, personnel from various countries arrived one after another. The Mountain Summit Rock Demon's strength was quite astonishing, so everyone joined forces to successfully deal with it. Who knew that after agreeing on a distribution method, the Italy people took the Stone Heart and fled? Everyone then realized that this treasure hunt had no international friendship to speak of; whoever obtained more resources would win in the subsequent competitions!
Angelo had just snatched the precious resource and was overjoyed, preparing to flee the area.
However, he never expected that two figures would appear like ghosts on the road ahead, blocking his path.
"Who are you?" Angelo immediately became alert, his gaze fixed on Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue, a hint of wariness in his eyes.
"Hand over the Stone Heart, or I'll have to take it." Mo Fan's voice was calm yet carried an undeniable authority, as if in his eyes, the Stone Heart in Angelo's hand was already his for the taking, and the other party only needed to obediently hand it over to avoid a conflict.
"Arrogant!"
Upon hearing this, Angelo immediately cursed.
In his opinion, how could he easily hand over the treasure he had so painstakingly snatched?
Moreover, the people blocking his path at this moment were undoubtedly enemies. So, he unhesitatingly made the first move.
Angelo's body instantly transformed into a turbid wind. This wind was incredibly fast, like a bolt of lightning, appearing at different positions around Mo Fan in a dazzling, chaotic wind formation.
Each time it moved, it left behind a wind-shadow, making it seem as if Angelo himself was still standing there, unmoving.
As the wind-shadows disappeared one by one, the trajectory formed by their disappearance miraculously created incredibly powerful Wind Shadow Chaotic Blades.
If there were only one or two wind-shadows, they might not be a threat, but the chaotic blades formed by a dozen wind-shadows at this moment were like a pack of hungry wolves, baring their fangs and claws as they tore towards Mo Fan, their momentum truly terrifying.
Mu Ningxue saw this and was about to make a move, but at this moment, she felt a dimensional fluctuation.
"Buzz!!" Faced with this seemingly fierce attack, Mo Fan merely raised his hand slightly, and the surrounding space seemed to tremble.
Immediately after, a scene that shocked the few people present occurred: the aggressive wind power, before it even had a chance to unleash any of its might, was crushed like fragile foam and dissipated into the air.
Mo Fan merely shook his head at the sight, seemingly disdainful of Angelo's attack.
Then, he no longer held back, and raging flames instantly ignited on his hands.
"Meteor Fist - Nine Dragons!"
Mo Fan let out a low roar. In an instant, the magic power within him surged wildly like a turbulent tide, converging towards his fists.
On his fists, flames erupted with an extremely violent intensity, instantly forming nine massive Fire Dragons.
Each of these nine Fire Dragons was tens of meters long, burning with scorching flames. The color of the flames was not uniform but displayed a dazzling array of colors.
That was the unique hue produced by Mo Fan's skillful fusion of Little Flame Belle's Calamity Fire and his own Lightning Flame. Within the dual Soul Fire, it contained the most violent destructive power in the world.
"Roar!!!"
The Fire Dragons seemed to let out roars, their voices seemingly able to pierce the clouds, making the surrounding air hum.
Wherever the sound passed, the air was rapidly heated, producing visible heatwave ripples that spread in all directions.
The Fire Dragons twisted their massive bodies and charged towards Angelo like arrows released from a bowstring.
Wherever they passed, the ground was instantly scorched black, and the moisture in the soil instantly evaporated, making a "sizzling" sound!!
The trees along the way were ignited by the scorching high temperature the moment the Fire Dragons approached, instantly turning into blazing torches, and then, under the powerful impact of the Fire Dragons, they were uprooted, turning into countless burning wood chips splashing everywhere.
When the Fire Dragons impacted the location where Angelo and the others were, they almost directly exploded.
In an instant, the entire space seemed to be slightly distorted by the force of this explosion, and everything around was completely shattered under this powerful impact.
The fire wave generated by the explosion was like a surging tsunami, spreading wildly in all directions with an overwhelming force.
Wherever the fire wave passed, the oxygen in the air seemed to be ignited by the high temperature, producing crackling explosions.
Angelo himself was directly blasted away by this immense force, like a cannonball shot, tracing a long arc in the air.
Fortunately, this kid seemed to have decent defensive magic equipment; he was unharmed under such a fierce attack.
However, Mo Fan had no intention of letting him off so easily.
"Heavenly Flame Nine Palaces!"
Mo Fan cast Fire Element magic again, and above the sky, a massive nine-square grid instantly appeared.
This nine-square grid floated high in the sky, each square immensely large, as if composed of pieces of burning sky stitched together.
The borders of the nine-square grid were outlined by the purest flames, which displayed a deep purplish-red color. Surging fire waves, like a rushing river, continuously plummeted directly towards the ground.
The fire waves were not ordinary flames but a burst of control force infused with the power of Mo Fan's dual Soul Seed!
When the fire waves fell from high altitude, the entire sky was illuminated crimson. The sound produced by the friction between the fire waves and the air was deafening, like thousands of troops galloping past.
