"Boiling Sea Divine Halberd!"
Yun Tianming initiated with an Earth Rank Mid Level Dou Technique, hurling a blue Heavenly Flame halberd down into the Demon Flame Valley below. It was like dropping a tactical nuclear warhead!
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!!!"
Accompanied by deafening explosions, the blue sea of flames rapidly spread across most of the Demon Flame Valley.
Since the external barrier did not trigger an alarm, the people inside the Demon Flame Valley were completely caught off guard by this sudden attack. Countless disciples of the Demon Flame Valley had no time to react before being engulfed in the raging inferno.
"What... What happened?"
"Where is the enemy? Why hasn't the barrier reacted?"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Only a few strong Dou Kings, using Dou Qi Wings to ascend into the sky, managed to escape the disaster. Looking at the land below scorched by the blue flames, the elders of the Demon Flame Valley showed expressions of shock and anger.
"Who exactly is it!"
"Which despicable person dares to attack our Demon Flame Valley!"
"Second, Third, stop shouting! Look over there!"
Led by Fang Yan, the three Grand Elders of the Demon Flame Valley fixed their gaze on Yun Tianming and the others in the sky.
"One who is half-step into Dou Ancestor and two at the peak of Dou Emperor, is this all the strength of the Demon Flame Valley?"
Xiao Yi Xian said expressionlessly.
"On the surface, it appears so, but there is an old monster of 7 Star Dou Ancestor hidden here."
Yun Tianming used Soul Perception to sweep through the inside and outside of the Demon Flame Valley.
He did not find the aura of the Old Ground Demon Ghost but discovered some unusual spatial fluctuations, indicating that the latter might be hiding in spatial confinement for long-term closed-door cultivation.
"Who are you exactly? Why do you attack my Demon Flame Valley for no reason?"
Fang Yan, fuming with anger, focused his gaze on Xiao Yi Xian, standing on the void, a symbol of Dou Ancestor strength!
"Hand over the Demon Flame Valley's treasure vault, and I might spare your lives."
Yun Tianming said lightly.
"You arrogant fool!"
"Don't think just because you have Dou Ancestor strength, you can act recklessly!"
"Our Demon Flame Valley is not to be trifled with!"
Fang Yan and the others were infuriated.
Although in the Black-Corner Region, killing and plundering were common, it was the first time they had seen such a large-scale attack on the Demon Flame Valley to seize their treasures!
"Zi Yan, it's time for you to get moving."
"Xiao Yi Xian, stay on standby for now and be on guard against the enemy's Dou Ancestor."
Yun Tianming directly issued the attack orders.
"Got it! Watch me go all out!"
Upon hearing this, Zi Yan immediately rolled up her sleeves and raised her soft little fists, looking quite playful and cute.
"Where did this little girl come from? Seeking death?"
The Dou King elders of the Demon Flame Valley surged forward, their colorful Dou Qi rushing at her. In the Black-Corner Region, they were all desperadoes and wouldn't show mercy just because Zi Yan looked like a little girl.
"Be careful, that little girl is suspicious. Pff!"
Before the warning was finished, a 6 Star Dou King elder was struck by Zi Yan's accelerated punch, the terrifying strength shattering his entire skeletal structure. He spat out blood and fell to the ground like a shooting star, creating a large crater!
A 6 Star Dou King was instantly killed!
"Dou Emperor experts? How is that possible!!"
The elders of the Demon Flame Valley were shocked and dismayed.
"Do you realize my strength now?"
Zi Yan waved her small fists and charged again at the elders of the Demon Flame Valley.
"Stop!"
The Second Elder and Third Elder, enraged, simultaneously unleashed their peak Dou Emperor Dou Qi.
"Be careful!"
Fang Yan's expression suddenly changed, and he fully released the powerful Dou Qi of a Half-step Dou Ancestor.
"Soaring Phoenix!"
With a spread of bone wings, they crashed through the Dou Qi defensive shield released by Fang Yan.
Fang Yan and the others were knocked back repeatedly.
"Grand Elder, are you injured?"
The Second Elder and Third Elder's eyes widened as they looked at a massive wound on Fang Yan's arm.
"Focus! Right now, there's no time to worry about minor injuries."
Fang Yan's expression was serious as he fixed his gaze on the young man with bone wings.
"This kid is actually a 7 Star Dou Emperor!"
"Such powerful Dou Qi! What level of Qi Method is he practicing!"
Despite Fang Yan and his companions having higher apparent levels than Yun Tianming, the latter's Earth Rank High Level Flame Mantra Qi Method was enough to level the playing field.
"This kid's Dou Qi strength is comparable to a Dou Ancestor. Do not hold back!"
"Second, Third, use that move directly!"
Upon Fang Yan's command, the Second Elder and Third Elder complied with a shout and then quickly retreated a distance. Each rapidly performed hand seals, and three faint gray flames suddenly emerged from their bodies. These flames responded to each other and soon flew out of their bodies, gathering in the air above the center of the three elders.
"Flame Technique: Transforming Fire!"
Fang Yan and the others shouted in unison. As the three faint gray flames merged, a gray-brown, eerie Heavenly Flame slowly rose into the sky.
The temperature around quickly increased, and the space around the strange gray flames became slightly distorted. The temperature of this flame far exceeded ordinary Beast Flame, seemingly approaching the level of Heavenly Flame.
"Heh, playing with fire in front of me."
Yun Tianming smirked with a contemptuous smile and waved his hand, sending forth a burst of Green Ocean Lotus Heart Flame.
"Heavenly Flame! That's a true Heavenly Flame!"
Fang Yan and the others' expressions changed drastically.
The Transforming Fire created by the combined efforts of the three was easily suppressed.
"Don't panic! A flame contest isn't just about strength."
Fang Yan gritted his teeth, changed hand seals, and the gray flames rapidly grew, suddenly transforming into a gigantic firebird!
Yun Tianming remained calm, and with a thought, the Heavenly Flame split into three, transforming into a green fire wolf, a blue fire leopard, and a milky white fire lion. These were the Fire Spirits of the Five Ring Flame Expelling Technique!
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The three Fire Spirits roared and fiercely tore into the firebird.
"Three types of Heavenly Flame? How is this possible!"
Fang Yan and the others worked together to control a single firebird.
Yun Tianming, using his mind to control all three fire wolf, fire leopard, and fire lion simultaneously, held an overwhelming advantage in both strength and control.
"Chirp~"
With a mournful cry, the firebird was torn to pieces.
With the Transforming Fire destroyed, Fang Yan and the other two, connected through the Flame Technique, were severely injured, spewing blood and their spirits falling into disarray.
"Motionless Thunder Roar: Four Phase Thunder!"
The muffled sound of thunder rumbled as Yun Tianming transformed into three lightning figures, charging towards Fang Yan and the others, ready to deliver a fatal blow.
At that moment, a cold, furious shout rang out: "Impudent brat, stop at once!"
Yun Tianming's pupils constricted, and he thought to himself: The Old Ground Demon Ghost has finally appeared.
