Chapter 2245 - 2246: Fight to the Death
Chapter 2245: Chapter 2246: Fight to the Death
But just as these flames reached halfway, they were halted in mid-air by an invisible force, then dissipated like fireworks.
The young man shuddered and shouted incredulously, "How can this be!"
Xue An smiled faintly, "Why not? I think you might have forgotten whose domain this is!"
As he spoke, a brilliant light flashed in Xue An’s eyes, and an immensely majestic Divine Sense emerged, trapping the young man within.
The young man turned pale.
Because he never dreamed that someone who was merely a Half-step Immortal Venerate could possess such a powerful Divine Sense.
His heart couldn’t help but secretly lament.
If he had known it would be like this, even if he were given the guts, he wouldn’t have dared to enter Xue An’s Sea of Consciousness so recklessly.
Though this young man had embarked on the path of fire, able to control all the flames under heaven, he wasn’t innately intelligent, making his Divine Sense pathetically weak.
With this disparity, the young man was naturally terrified.
But now it was too late to regret.
So the young man gritted his teeth, "No matter whose domain it is, it’s either your death or my life today, prepare yourself!"
As he spoke, the young man’s form suddenly transformed into a flash of fire, appearing behind Xue An and striking with a punch.
Xue An didn’t even glance back and merely said casually, "You still don’t understand. Here, if I don’t permit it, even fighting with all your might is a luxury for you!"
As his words fell, countless vines appeared out of thin air, firmly binding the young man and lifting him into the air.
The young man struggled several times but to no avail, his eyes could not help but show a look of horror.
At the same time, Xue An slowly turned around, looking at him with an amused expression.
"Anything else you want to say?"
The young man’s pupils contracted to the size of a needle because, from Xue An’s simple words, he felt an indescribable sense of dread.
"Young one, don’t think that just because you have trapped me, you can easily subdue and devour me. Let me tell you, it’s useless. As a Fire Spirit, I am not something you can touch! No matter how strong your Divine Sense, it’s useless!" the young man shouted fiercely, both shocked and enraged.
Xue An simply chuckled and then said slowly, "Touch? That word seems inappropriate, as if I’m some rogue harassing a virtuous woman!"
This statement reminded the young man; with a blink of his eye, he transformed into a stunningly beautiful woman in an instant.
Then "she" smiled charmingly at Xue An, speaking in an incredibly melodious female voice, "Sir, this little lady knows her mistake. Could you let me go?"
Honestly, the woman the Fire Spirit transformed into was so beautiful, it was the most Xue An had ever seen in his life.
Moreover, unlike the gentle elegance of An Yan or the exquisite allure of Yue Qinghuan, this woman’s beauty was almost surreal, giving a strong sense of unreality.
Yet it was this feeling that further highlighted "her" uniqueness.
Even Xue An’s eyes revealed a glimmer of astonishment.
Noticing this, "her" smile became even more sincere, looking at Xue An with eyes full of hope.
Whatever else, that gentle gaze was something no ordinary person could resist.
But Xue An lightly laughed at this moment, "If I didn’t know that fire spirits have no gender, I might really have been fooled by you!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the "woman" was momentarily speechless, then reverted back to the young man’s form, speaking in a deep voice.
"How about we try a different approach?"
"Oh? What different approach?"
"All you seek is fortune, I can gift you a strand of flame to aid your advancement, but you must first release me!"
After finishing, the young man raised his head to coldly stare at Xue An, a look of unspeakable pride in his gaze, as though his proposal was the greatest gift imaginable.
Xue An looked at the young man, suddenly laughing.
"You still haven’t put yourself in the right place. Since I can capture you, why not just absorb all your flames directly instead of accepting your so-called gift?"
"Because you can’t!" the young man sneered.
"I already said, without my permission, you cannot devour or absorb my flames at all, understand?"
"So certain, are you?" Xue An said with a smile.
"Of course!" The young man’s chin went even higher.
"Hehe, then see what this is!"
Saying so, Xue An gently clapped his hands, and a man appeared behind him, bowing and greeting.
"Master!"
Upon seeing this man, the young man’s eyes widened instantly, exclaiming in disbelief.
"Taotie!?"
Xue An smiled and said, "Indeed, it is Taotie!"
Saying this, Xue An looked at the young man with amusement, "Do you think, with this ancient beast that loves to devour, it’s possible your flames could be digested?"
This Fire Spirit never dreamed that Xue An would possess such an ancient ferocious beast, knowing that Taotie delights in devouring all sorts of treasures.
And unfortunately, as a Strange Fire spirit, he was considered a treasure in Taotie’s eyes.
Therefore, upon seeing the greed in Taotie’s eyes, his entire body couldn’t help but tremble.
"Actually, I initially did not wish to make things so extreme. The problem is from the beginning, you had impure motive, first trying to trick me, then using tactics to possess my body. If it weren’t for my early detection, I might have truly fallen for it, without a place to bury my bones."
"So this outcome is entirely your self-inflicted harm!" Xue An sighed lightly.
These words made the young man’s face grow paler, a deep despair emerging in his eyes.
Because this was clearly a precursor to taking action.
Sure enough.
Only to see Taotie behind Xue An suddenly open its mouth, and a ball of light flew into Xue An’s body.
This was none other than Taotie’s most vaunted Devouring Ability.
And upon obtaining this ability, Xue An took a step forward towards the young man.
The young man was filled with extreme fear, suddenly forcing himself to steel his resolve.
"Since you refuse to let me go, then let’s perish together!"
As he spoke, a light flashed in the young man’s eyes.
Xue An’s heart stirred, then he asked coldly, "You’ve released the Flame God Palace’s restriction?"
"Correct!" The young man was nearly frantic now.
"Now, you and your two friends will all be exposed. If I’m not mistaken, those outside are all your enemies, right? Now, I’d like to see how you handle this!"
"Because even if you devour me, you have no chance of leaving this place! Hahahahaha."
The young man laughed heartily.
Xue An’s eyes showed a trace of anger, the vines binding the young man instantly pierced into his body, while Xue An fiercely activated the devouring ability borrowed from Taotie, beginning to devour and absorb the surging flames.
Because Xue An understood clearly, this was now the only way to break the deadlock.
