Chapter 223: Reasons for Decline
only did his surroundings suddenly grow dark, but a chill wind started blowing from somewhere, carrying the stench of blood and decay. It swirled around him, accompanied by a strange, mournful sound.T...In the very center of the flower, something constantly contracted and writhed, like a mouth that was opening and closing incessantly. Coupled with this face, the whole thing looked extremely eerie.
The flower of flame moved at an extremely fast speed, instantly arriving before Jiang Yun's face, and suddenly expanding, opening its mouth.
While Jiang Yun, who had just shattered three fire dragons, didn't seem to expect Huo Duming's second wave of attacks to come so quickly.
Without warning, the entire person was directly engulfed by the flames of the flower.
Ginger Cloud, situated at the heart of the flowers, is like being trapped in a cage.
Four petals of flames, now transformed into four swirling fiery tongues, instantly engulfed Jiangyun's form.
That scorching heat was so intense that even the snow tribe people living deep in the valley could feel it, and they couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.
And the myriad demons of Wan Yao Ku were filled with a look of relief.
"This Ginger Cloud, truly a case of much ado about nothing. He created so many blessed lands, yet his true strength is pathetic!"
"It's not that simple. Jiang Yun's strength among his peers is considered extremely powerful, but no matter how strong he is, he is only at the first level of Fudi now."
"But the young master is at the Fifth Heaven of Fortune, four small realms apart. Of course, he wouldn't be the opponent of the young master."
In most demon's minds, Jiang Yun who was engulfed by the four-colored flames would have been either dead or at least incapacitated and unable to fight again.
But their voices soon faded away.
Because at this very moment, amidst that boiling sea of four-colored flames, Jiang Yun's newly formed Xueya Fudi silently appeared.
"Om!"
Next, the snow cliff began to tremble violently.
Within the tremors, all the snow on top began to dance wildly, exploding into a flurry of mist.
As these mists appeared, the four-colored sea of fire that had engulfed Jiang Yun's figure gradually stopped jumping and writhing, and was covered with a layer of white frost!
This is not ordinary mist, but cold air!
Jiang Yun's figure reappeared in the center of the flower, his expression calm, and he was unharmed.
Clearly, the temperature of a four-colored flame is extremely high, but it still can't compare to that of fire, and therefore it can't hurt him.
A cold light flashed in Huoduming's eyes. He reached out his hand, and a four-colored flame spear appeared in his grasp.
With a flash of movement, he arrived before Jiang Yun and raised his spear, thrusting it down with all his might.
"Bang!"
Although the spear effortlessly pierced through the flower of flames, it was firmly grasped by Jiang Yun's palm and frozen at an extremely fast speed as well.
"Boom!"
Then, Ginger Cloud's other hand also swung forcefully, instantly shattering the four-colored flame flower that had been completely frozen, and it reappeared in the sky.
Their second encounter, though it seemed to take a long time, was actually completed in an instant.
And Ginger Cloud, having escaped the predicament, didn't stop. With his palms waving relentlessly, the entire snow cliff, accompanied by a deafening roar, charged straight towards Huo Duming.
At this moment, Huo Duming's pupils constricted sharply.
Because through this encounter, he had a clear feeling.
Not only is Jiang Yun not afraid of the power of fire, but his blessed land, under the current environment, can even restrain himself.
After all, I am fire, while Jiang Yun is snow!
"Snow can freeze fire, but fire can also melt snow!"
In the flickering whispers of the fire, the flames atop his head split once more, and a fifth yellow flame appeared.
Five Blessings Land!
Five colored flames once again combined into a flower of flame, still rotating at high speed, facing the oncoming cliff of snow.
The five-colored flame flower, spinning around, resembled a miniature sun. Not only was its radiance dazzling, but the high temperature it released also dispersed the dark clouds in the air.
For this perpetually overcast region, a rare glimmer of sunlight appeared!
Even, even the snow in the valleys began to melt rapidly, revealing the brown mountains beneath.
As for Gingercloud's snow cliff, it melted rapidly under the illumination of these five-colored suns.
Just then, Ginger Cloud suddenly raised his hand. Below the snow cliff, with a "whoosh," a red flame erupted, completely enveloping the entire mountain and snow cliff.
Seeing this flame, all the monsters were slightly surprised, but they didn't care too much. Huo Duming sneered and said: "In front of me, you dare to play with fire, you are really courting death!"
But all the Snow Elves instantly recognized him.
Because of the appearance of this flame, the speed at which the snow cliff melted actually slowed down.
"This, this, is fire!"
Especially on Ah Gong's face, a very complex expression was revealed. There was shock, excitement, but more than anything, it was anticipation.
Outsiders probably can't imagine, because the Xue clan was born from fire, so their strong foundation lies in their ability to completely fuse fire with themselves.
Back then, the ancestor of the Xue clan, Xue Mu Cheng, became the number one demon precisely because he successfully fused the fire of departure with himself!
But since Xue Mu Cheng left, not a single member of the vast Xue clan has been able to truly possess the flames of departure, let alone merge them with themselves.
Even his grandfather, unlike someone like Jiang Yun who had mastered the power of the Fire of Separation, didn't possess it as his own. He merely, due to his unique position, managed to absorb a sliver of the Fire of Separation from within the Holy Land.
As for the other Xuezu clansmen, they could only enter the Blessed Land realm and condense the first layer of the Blessed Land. At that time, the Xuezu elder would take action, mobilizing a trace of Li Huo's power to enter their bodies, helping them condense the Blessed Land.
And this is also the real reason for the decline of the Xue clan!
But now, he actually saw an outsider, no, it should be said a human being from another race, who seemed to have already achieved the fusion of fire and snow!
It's conceivable that his heart was filled with a mixture of helplessness and excitement at this moment.
However, in his opinion, Ginger Cloud could accomplish this because it must have been a wisp of divine consciousness left behind by the ancestor that was helping him.
In fact, the fire was obtained by Jian Yun himself at the risk of his life. It truly belongs to him!
As the flames emerged, they enveloped the snow cliff and instead of receding, they advanced even faster, heading straight for the five-colored flame flower!
"Boom!"
Both of them exploded simultaneously upon impact, an endless flame instantly engulfing the sky. Almost half the heavens turned into a sea of fire!
And within this sea of flames, several distinct colors were visible. However, white was conspicuously absent.
That is to say, the fire is still there, but the snow is gone.
This also means that the snow cliff disappeared, meaning that Jiang Yun doesn't seem to be Huo Duming's opponent.
Huò Dú Míng zhǎng tǔ yī kǒu qì, nà zhāng yīng jùn de liǎn shàng yě zhōngyú huī fù le guàn yǒu de ào sè.
From the time Ginger Cloud appeared until now, he has been attracting the attention of all demons, suppressing him as the young master of the Ten Thousand Demon Pit.
Now it's his turn to gain the upper hand.
"You're truly strong. If you encountered other opponents or had more time to grow, your future achievements would undoubtedly be remarkable. However, it's a pity that you met me. This means there will be no future for you!"
After witnessing the full form of Ginger Cloud Paradise, Huo Duming had made up his mind to kill Ginger Cloud. He would absolutely not let him live another day.
At this moment, Jiang Yun was also gazing at the sea of fire ahead. On the surface, he appeared calm, but if one looked closely into his eyes, they would find a trace of regret lurking deep within.
First released on the Traditional Chinese Novel Network, a ball of spiritual energy suddenly appeared above Jiang Yun's head, condensing into the shape of five mountain peaks.Although these five peaks are no more than a hundred zhang high, and shrouded wi...
