The golden flames burned fiercely. Yu Shishi was under Mo Fan’s protection amid the sea of flames, but even when Mo Fan and his outstanding Fire Resistance was separating her and the flames, she could still sense how deadly and unstoppable the flames were.

The golden flames were very aggressive. They kept lunging at any living thing nearby like starving beasts.

“Are you alright?” Yu Shishi was shocked when she noticed that Mo Fan was defenseless. She could tell that Mo Fan was suffering from the golden flames too.

“I’ll send you out there. Save as many of your moths as you can. I’ll deal with them,” Mo Fan told Yu Shishi.

“How are you going to send me out there? We are surrounded by the flames!” Yu Shishi exclaimed.

“Enough talk, hurry up and save your moths!” Mo Fan was already emitting a silver light.

The silver Stars rapidly formed Star Orbits, which combined into Star Patterns. The seven Star Patterns constructed a silver Star Constellation. Its light encapsulated Yu Shishi, and as its brilliance reached the limit, it teleported Yu Shishi out of the flames.

A second later, Yu Shishi showed up over three hundred meters away. She had escaped the scorching heat of the fire!

Yu Shishi looked at Mo Fan curiously. She never thought Mo Fan would go so far as to protect her. At the same time, she was utterly confused too. Why didn’t he use Blink to move out of the fire too? Why did he have to suffer inside the flames?

The flames continued to spread. Yu Shishi had no time to waste. She quickly flew to the woods and summoned the moths that were still alive to her.

Luckily, she had come just in time. Not every moth had died to the fire. Some of the little moths had managed to escape with the help of the other moths that sacrificed themselves. Yu Shishi was relieved to see them alive.

She took another glance in Mo Fan’s direction. She could not help but worry about Mo Fan’s safety. The Mage that the Research Union had sent was very strong!

—

“Your fire isn’t really that impressive!” Mo Fan stood inside the golden flames, and continued to provoke Zeng Guanglie.

“Kid, you’re asking for it. Don’t blame it on me!” Zeng Guanglie was getting angry. He had been going easy as he did not want to kill anyone, yet the disrespectful young man still dared to mock him!

Zeng Guanglie had long gotten used to being fawned upon and treated with utter respect with his current status and strength. He could not tolerate the slightest disrespect!

“Golden Flames Domain!” Zeng Guanglie yelled. The Fire Magic within a few kilometers swiftly gathered toward him.

The fire burning the woods grew stronger. It was gathering toward Mo Fan like an enraged beast, even though Zeng Guanglie had yet to cast any spell.

—

The golden flames grew bigger. They were like an army of soldiers on horses, unstoppable and completely surrounding Mo Fan.

“That’s more like it!” Mo Fan continued to utter scornful comments.

Mo Fan touched his elbow while he was speaking. A formless hand surrounded Mo Fan as the golden flames lunged at him. Its purple outline was vague under the brilliance of the golden flames. It was almost invisible.

However, the Hand of Silent Thunder had transformed the energy of the flames that made contact with Mo Fan into lightning!

The lightning was as strong as the flames. Mo Fan’s Fire Resistance was already shocking, but his Lightning Resistance was even more astounding!

“Lightning Tyrant Domain!” Mo Fan Summoned his Lightning Domain in response!

Thunder rumbled in the sky as bolts of lightning without a specific target descended upon the woods.

—

The lightning flickered and surged wildly. It took Zeng Guanglie by surprise, but he soon burst out laughing!

“Idiot, your Lightning Domain is useless against my golden flames. Are you seriously thinking that you can put out my fire with your lightning!?” Zeng Guanglie yelled at him.

Zeng Guanglie did not expect that the young man would have a Domain, too! After all, it was already quite surprising that the young man was an Advanced Mage at his age, let alone having a Domain. Zeng Guanglie was laughing because the man might have had a chance against his flames if he had unleashed his Domain at the start of the fight. However, he had already claimed the upper hand, and his flames had spread across the mountain. If the young man did not find a way to put out the flames, it was unlikely that he could use his Lightning!

The young man was too inexperienced. Even though he had a Domain, he had no idea he was supposed to use it to put himself in an advantageous position!

—

The flames pounced at Mo Fan wildly. However, it did not seem like he was fighting back. He simply let his body burn in the fire.

The stronger the fire that was burning him, the stronger the lightning he accumulated. Mo Fan’s Lightning Resistance had improved greatly after the World College Tournament. The damage he was receiving was nothing to him!

—

The Hand of Silent Thunder continued to transform the energy of the flames into the Lightning Element. Zeng Guanglie was agitated after seeing Mo Fan still standing after roasting in the flames for some time. He proceeded to cast Advanced Spells continuously to eliminate him.

To his surprise, Mo Fan remained standing. The lightning flickering around the young man started to make him panic!

“What…what’s going on here? Why isn’t the fire killing him!?” Zeng Guanglie lost his calm. He looked at Mo Fan standing in the golden flames like he was looking at a monster.

“I’ve given you so many changes. It’s your turn to have a taste of my lightning!” Mo Fan chuckled. The lightning danced wildly around him, as if it was awaiting the order of the Lightning Emperor. The imperious aura of the Lightning Tyrant Domain firmly suppressed Zeng Guanglie and Ke Lingxi!

2Their hearts were pounding before the lightning even came down at them. The people of the Research Union saw an enormous dark lightning claw in the sky. Its brilliant light clearly broadcast great danger. As it loomed over them, it felt like the claw of an enormous beast ready to tear the mountain into pieces!

“Sky Lightning Giant Claw!”

The energy that Mo Fan had absorbed had multiplied the strength of his Lightning. It allowed Mo Fan to unleash the same Sky Lightning Giant Claw that had defeated Zorro instantly during the World College Tournament!

Ke Lingxi, Zeng Guanglie, and their men were pale when they saw the enormous Sky Lightning Claw coming down at them. They could not believe it was from a young man that seemed to only be in his twenties!

-Is that really still an Advanced Spell? Its aura is so strong that it feels like I’m suffocating!-

As soon as the Sky Lightning Claw landed, it immediately crushed Zeng Guanglie’s Fire Domain. The lightning struck him and swiftly penetrated his defense.

Zeng Guanglie and Ke Lingxi had used all their defensive spells and gear, including a huge ocean-blue Shield, a Light Element barrier, three stacking defensive spells, and Armor that could absorb damage…

Their defense was enough to defend them against a series of Advanced Spells, but they did not stand a chance against the fourteen-fold Sky Lightning Giant Claw, not to mention the Lightning Element was already known for its ability to penetrate the defense of magic Equipment!

Ke Lingxi and his men ended up in a miserable state after they were struck by the terrifying lightning claw. One of them was blasted unconscious instantly.

Zeng Guanglie was relatively stronger than the others, so his defense was the best among them, yet his skin still blistered after he was struck by the lightning.

His face was wounded, with blood flowing down. He quickly wiped the blood off and staggered to his feet.

“Damn it, damn it!” Zeng Guanglie yelled furiously. He clenched his teeth and glared at Mo Fan.

A young Mage that came out of nowhere was able to inflict serious damage on him. The defense that he was incredibly proud of could not withstand a single attack!

Who exactly was this young man? How was it possible for him to be so strong?

How was his lightning so powerful? Even if he had the best Lightning Soul-grade Seed in the world, it would only multiply his Lightning six times at most. His defense was supposedly strong enough to resist it; how did he end up being injured so badly?

Zeng Guanglie was unable to use his magic after being struck by the lightning. He was in such pain that it felt like his body was being torn apart.

1“HAHAHA, Zeng Guanglie, I never thought I would see you fail so miserably one day. It seems like those old folk have been overestimating you. You can’t even take out a young Mage!” a man wearing a shirt with black and red stripes approached from the direction the flames did not cover with a burst of laughter.

The man had been watching the fight all along, hiding behind the woods and the rocks. Neither Mo Fan and Yu Shishi noticed he was there.

The man was holding a huge metal ring, and his hands had some black hoops on them too. He was dressed in a weird way. Most importantly, the hoops on his hands were tied to some dark red chains.

As the man slowly walked forward, two pairs of fierce-looking eyes with green glows appeared from the darkness. As they walked into the light of the flames, they turned out to be two demon hounds covered in cursed runes, and tied to the chains!

The demon hounds were as tall as a three-story building. Their sizes were normal for Commander-level creatures, but their overwhelming auras seemed to originate from the deepest part of Hell, and could easily make a person shiver in fear!

“Dreadful Curse Hell Hounds!”
