The battle was still intense, ten breaths, fifteen breaths, twenty breaths....
Tang Xing had seized absolute initiative on the ring platform, the raging Spiritual Fire had covered most of the platform, and certainly, that included Bu Chen.
Unlike most opponents who got flustered when faced with Spiritual Fire, Bu Chen, who knew the nature of Spiritual Fire, did not panic at all. Instead, he suppressed his Spiritual Power deep inside his Dantian, not allowing any leakage except when using Spirit Art, much like an ordinary person without any fluctuation of Spiritual Power.
Spiritual Fire feeds on Spiritual Energy. Without a source of Spiritual Energy on Bu Chen's body, it naturally returned to the Spirit Flame Body Illustration, to compete with other Spiritual Fires for the spiritual essence that was boiling out of Tang Xing's body.
