Chapter 158: Chapter 157: Wood Dragon Descent

”Not finished? What nonsense are you talking about?”

”Purple Flame, you’re being too arrogant.”

Murong Ke chuckled disdainfully.

This time, no one argued with him.

Even the staff of the Demon Hunting Hall sighed and said, ”Deacon Yi Xiao, although your strength surpasses everyone here.”

”But in front of the Fiery Flame Mad Lion, you’re still too weak.”

”Just like how you instantly killed those ordinary demon beasts, if it simply breathes on you, I’m afraid you’ll turn into ashes.”

”Let’s not waste time anymore, we should hurry up and run.” Murong Ke urged repeatedly.

Just as everyone had completely lost hope.

Xiao Yi snorted coldly, his steps shifted, and he instantly charged towards the gigantic figure of the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

”Brother Yi, what are you doing, come back!” Ye Ming exclaimed in shock.

”Master Yi Xiao, don’t be rash!” Ning Hao shouted anxiously.

”Hmph, let the kid court death if he wants to,” Murong Ke scoffed.

But in a few seconds, Xiao Yi had already leaped far away.

He left behind only a trail of confident laughter.

”These little tricks, might fool others, but you’re far from fooling me.”

As his voice faded, Xiao Yi’s figure had already arrived in front of the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

He calmly extended his fist, then threw it with all his might.

With a booming sound.

In the incredulous stares of everyone.

That huge figure, enveloped in flames, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion, was instantly blasted back tens of meters.

”So strong, how is this possible?” Murong Ke stared in amazement.

”So fierce, truly worthy of being Master Yi Xiao.” Ning Hao revealed a surprised expression, but amid the surprise, there was a smile.

”I understand now.” The two captains of the Demon Hunting Hall were the first to react.

”This Fiery Flame Mad Lion isn’t fully grown, no, it should be said that it has just reached adulthood.”

”Its strength isn’t stable, only barely stepping into the Mystic Breakthrough Realm.”

Upon hearing this, everyone sensed carefully.

Indeed, the aura of the Fiery Flame Mad Lion, though strong, wasn’t to the point of being terrifying.

Proof that its strength was probably only around the Mystic Breakthrough First Layer.

”As expected of Purple Flame Yi Xiao, who could see through the real strength of that Fiery Flame Mad Lion at a glance, knowing it was just bluffing.”

Liu Cangya praised.

”Hmph.” Murong Ke said resentfully, ”What’s there to be surprised about.”

”Have you forgotten? This madman, even in the Demon Beast Forest, went on a rampage without any inhibition.”

”His experience is even more abundant than that of seasoned Demon Hunters.”

”Of course he saw through it at first glance.”

Everyone rolled their eyes.

Ye Ming smiled and said, ”I think there’s another possibility, that Brother Yi’s real strength is much stronger than ours.”

”And his perception, naturally far more formidable.”

”I’m more inclined to this possibility.”

”Psh.” Murong Ke said contemptuously, ”No matter how strong Purple Flame is, there’s a limit, and I don’t believe he can handle the Fiery Flame Mad Lion on his own.”

”Just watch, he will be defeated soon.”

In the distance, Xiao Yi was fiercely battling with the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

Ye Ming said coldly, ”Do you think everyone is as short-sighted as you?”

”What good would Brother Yi’s defeat do for the defense of Green Light City? Hmph.”

With a cold snort, Ye Ming’s figure shifted and he headed straight for Xiao Yi.

”Brother Yi, I’m here to help you.”

”Master Yi Xiao, I’m also here to support you.”

”Deacon Yi Xiao.”

”...”

Except for Murong Ke, a group of powerful individuals all rushed over to help.

”Roar”

In the distance, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion let out a heaven-shaking roar, and the horde of demon beasts on the ground once again launched an assault on the city.

The great battle was rekindled.

This time, the powerful fighters couldn’t spare any effort to help ordinary Martial Artists.

Their only target was one, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

As long as they defeated this Mystic Breakthrough Realm Demon Beast, the other demon beasts would surely scatter like monkeys off a fallen tree, fleeing back into the Demon Beast Forest.

On the other side, Xiao Yi, with his Half-step Breaking Profound physical strength and the power of the Purple Flame, was matching the beast move for move.

The Fiery Flame Mad Lion was terrifying in controlling flames, but it was not skilled in close combat, nor known for its giant force.

Therefore, Xiao Yi was able to fight it to a draw in close combat.

Now, the help of Ye Ming and the others undoubtedly increased the chances of victory.

”Brother Ye, be careful,” Xiao Yi warned.

”Just as I thought, this Fiery Flame Mad Lion has only recently reached adulthood, its power not yet stable.”

”If I’m not mistaken about this large-scale Beast Tide, it’s being driven by the lion.”

”It wants to rapidly stabilize its Cultivation by consuming the essence of Human Martial Artists.”

”So, we must trap it.”

”I understand, Brother Yi,” Ye Ming responded, saying, ”With the combined strength of us powerful fighters, we can surely kill it.”

”Fire Tree Roots,” Ye Ming suddenly shouted.

A surge of True Qi burst forth from his body.

The next second, dozens of giant roots broke through the soil.

Each about 30 Zhang thick, like ferocious Wood Dragons, they rapidly bound the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

”Roar”

The Fiery Flame Mad Lion, seeming extremely uncomfortable with these roots entwining it, struggled fiercely.

Flames erupted all over its body, trying to burn these roots to ash.

It could never have imagined that Ye Ming’s thick roots exploded upon contact with fire.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

The Fiery Flame Mad Lion was blasted until it was covered in soot and dirt.

Xiao Yi took advantage of the situation, launching a punch with all his might.

His fist was shrouded in terrifying Purple Flame.

With a thud, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion was once again sent flying tens of meters, a small hole eroded by the Purple Flame appearing on its body.

At the same time, a group of arriving powerhouses attacked with full force.

Sword Energy, Sword Qi, Palm Wind, each one striking the massive body of the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

He was relentlessly forced to retreat step by step.

”Roar.”

The Fiery Flame Mad Lion cried out in pain.

”Demon beast, still daring to be rampant,” Ye Ming said coldly, ”Fire Tree Roots.”

Dozens more thick roots burst forth from the ground.

This time, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion had learned its lesson and was prepared.

A layer of flame shield cloaked its body.

Then, it ignited the roots to cause an explosion.

”Hmph, watch as I break your flame shield,” Ye Ming shouted loudly.

The next second, an even more powerful surge of True Qi erupted from him.

True Qi automatically condensed into a Qi Dragon, over six hundred meters long.

One zhang is three meters.

Six hundred meters long — the size of this Qi Dragon was truly immense.

The group of powerhouses was startled, then their faces brightened into smiles.

”We’ve long heard of Ye Ming, a super genius with a Qi Spring reaching three hundred zhang.”

”Furthermore, he possesses the rare Innate Taoist Body.”

”Now that we see it, it’s indeed the case.”

”To be able to mobilize over six hundred meters of True Qi in an instant is truly formidable.”

Indeed, Ye Ming was the disciple of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect with the biggest Qi Spring, reaching three hundred zhang.

Now at Mysterious Profundity Ninth Layer, he was close to Half-step Breaking Profound.

His Qi Spring was almost completely filled.

With the special constitution of the Innate Taoist Body, he could instantly mobilize seventy percent of his True Qi.

That was now over two hundred zhang.

”Wood Dragon Descent,” Ye Ming yelled loudly.

Wood Dragon Descent was one of the strongest Earth Rank Martial Techniques of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, reaching High-level Earth Rank.

It could scarcely be performed by Mystic Breakthrough Realm Martial Artists.

But aided by that over two hundred zhang long Qi Dragon made of condensed True Qi,

Ye Ming finally managed to use it.

When the power of the Qi Dragon was completely expended,

Ten massive Wood Dragons appeared out of nowhere, each as tall as a Heavenly tree, immensely imposing.

The ten Wood Dragons, interweaving back and forth, easily enveloped the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.

”Ye Ming’s Martial Technique is the perfect counter to the Fiery Flame Mad Lion.”

”If all goes well, this battle is assured victory.”

Xiao Yi revealed a smile.

Indeed, Boom... Boom... Boom...

A myriad of explosions sounded deafeningly.

The group of powerhouses immediately retreated.

Before them, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion, surrounded by the ten Wood Dragons, was completely engulfed in countless explosions.

Ten seconds later, after the explosions ceased,

The Fiery Flame Mad Lion within was bloodied and evidently severely injured.

Of course, Ye Ming himself was also not in good shape. Wood Dragon Descent was a Martial Technique he could not easily use without suffering backlash.

Additionally, having expended seventy percent of his True Qi in one go, his complexion turned extremely pale.

However, as long as he could win this battle, the price paid was absolutely worth it.

Just as everyone was smiling and confident of victory,

suddenly, the Fiery Flame Mad Lion staggeringly rose up.

Its whole body’s flames were now even more intense.

”That demon beast still has the ability to fight?” Ye Ming’s face turned even paler.

He didn’t have enough True Qi to perform Wood Dragon Descent again.

”Roar.”

The Fiery Flame Mad Lion roared furiously, and a wave of fire much larger than before surged toward them like a tide.

”Quick, retreat,” Xiao Yi exclaimed in shock, hurrying backward.

The other powerhouses also did not dare to be careless and quickly withdrew.

It was fortunate that they retreated swiftly,

For wherever the wave of fire passed, within a thousand meters, everything turned to scorched earth.

Tens of thousands of demon beasts and human martial artists failed to react in time and had already become corpses.

”How powerful,” the complexions of the powerhouses changed dramatically.

”Lion-type demon beasts are known for their fire control, and they are the dominant force among demon beasts at any level.”

”This Fiery Flame Mad Lion, although only recently matured, has strengths far surpassing those of an ordinary Mystic Breakthrough First Layer demon beast.”

Everyone, including Xiao Yi, furrowed their brows.

As if misfortunes never came singly,

The next second, another earth-shaking beast roar came from the Demon Beast Forest in the distance.

”What’s happening?” At first confused, the crowd then gasped in shock.

Another Fiery Flame Mad Lion was rushing toward them from afar.

”Two... Two Fiery Flame Mad Lions...” The hearts of the powerhouses sunk to the bottom in an instant.
