Chapter 434: Chapter 295: King of Ten Thousand Flames, Elf Inheritance
"If there’s anyone to blame, it’s that you chose the wrong opponent from the start," the Great Elder shook his head.
However... the Great Elder paused slightly.
He noticed that whether it was Yun Canglang or Zong Ren, along with Zong Ren’s Demon Beast, all of them were somewhat affected in their movement techniques and strength when facing the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast Totem.
However, the female Mage alone seemed unaffected.
The Great Elder of course didn’t know that Yun Sheng had already encountered the true Divine Beast Suanni, and she bore the mark of the Elf Karma Fire on her body, while her Summoning Demon Hand also partly resisted the Divine Beast Totem.
"Second Uncle, let’s split up. You hold off the Great Elder while I and Zong Ren figure out a way to capture that Vermilion Bird," Yun Sheng showed no fear towards the Vermilion Bird Totem. She didn’t even regard the true Divine Beast Suanni highly, let alone a Divine Beast Totem.
Although she didn’t know the origins of the Totem Imperial Jade, Yun Sheng faintly felt that this jade had some connection to her damaged Shennong Medical Bracelet.
Perhaps obtaining this Emperor Jade might benefit her as well.
Yun Canglang looked at Yun Sheng half worriedly, but she gave him a reassuring glance.
"Great Elder, I must kill Xuan Wuji. If you obstruct me, I shall fight with my life!" Yun Canglang saluted with his fists, his fighting spirit erupting once again.
"Today, this old man will show you the difference between a Martial Arts Sect and a Martial Saint," said the Great Elder, annoyed as Yun Sheng and others refused to give up.
Foolish youngsters, actually daring to contend with the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast Totem!
The Great Elder Liu Changfeng saw this and secretly scoffed at Yun Sheng and the others for overestimating their abilities.
Without another word, Yun Canglang’s Fighting Spirit Wings fluttered behind him, and he had already risen with the Great Elder hundreds of meters into the sky, facing each other, Yun Sheng and Zong Ren against the Vermilion Bird.
Yun Canglang and the Great Elder held their ground against each other, and in that moment, the air was tense with murderous aura, ready to erupt at any moment.
Faced with the Divine Beast Totem, Yun also put away her previous disdainful attitude, and she and Zong Ren prepared for battle.
Beneath her, Yun Sheng was surrounded by a faint green hue of Wind Magic Element.
Having advanced to a Magic Master, her control over magic had become even more seamless, and she floated in mid-air as if she was riding the wind.
Zong Ren, on the other hand, jumped onto the back of the Dragon Claw Bat King.
The Vermilion Bird Totem only bore a fraction of the divine beast’s power, just one-tenth of its actual strength.
But even that one-tenth was enough to repel Yun Sheng and the others.
Yun Sheng did not rush to make a move, hovering mid-air.
Unfortunately, the Vermilion Bird was of the Fire element, and her Centipede Ant General was not adept at aerial combat.
Zong Ren chanted as he waved a dark, withered-looking Magic Wand in his hand.
Beside the Dragon Claw Bat, black Magic Elements appeared, transforming into sharp-clawed bats.
With a sweep of Zong Ren’s wand, the bat swarm was unstoppable, like countless ants attacking an elephant.
The Vermilion Bird Totem beat its fiery wings, emitting a crisp, pleasant bird song, and its Fire Feathers moved with the wind, dropping flames like rain.
The fiery rain engulfed the sky, and upon contact with the bat swarm, they burned like moths to a flame, turning into plumes of ash, crashing to the grass-covered ground that caught fire upon contact with the Divine Fire, turning bright red spontaneously.
Once the fire hit the ground, there was no sign of it extinguishing; instead, it spread fiercely like oil was poured over it.
In a blink of an eye, hundreds of bats were annihilated by the Divine Fire sprayed by the Vermilion Bird.
Zong Ren was in absolute misery, for his Bat King was also a Flying Magical Beast, but the Bat King feared fire, especially the fire from the Vermilion Bird Totem which was no ordinary flame.
The Bat King had no choice but to avoid, the fiery licks of flame making it stumble and falter, looking very dangerous.
On the other hand, Yun Sheng, amidst the fierce fire, felt not the slightest discomfort; on the contrary, she felt as if the Fire Magic Element within her was like a long drought meeting sweet rain, surrounded only by a slight warmth.
This is the advantage of obtaining the inheritance of the Elf Karma Fire!
"Zong Ren, back off!" Yun Sheng had seen enough, she shouted sharply, darting through the flames.
The Vermilion Bird, seeing the enemy approach, spewed a tongue of flame from its mouth.
"Master, be careful!" Zong Ren watched as Yun Sheng neither dodged nor avoided, crashing directly into the flame, his face turning pale with fright.
Down on the ground, Xuan Wuji thought maliciously, "Burn her! Burn the stinking girl from Yun Residence!"
Had it not been for Yun Sheng, his plot would have succeeded already.
All because of this girl, using some medical skills, she had actually saved Yun Bahe and even healed the hand of Yun Canglang.
Xuan Wuji reveled in the disaster, thinking: a mortal body, once touched by Divine Fire, would crumble to ashes in an instant.
But the next moment, Xuan Wuji’s smile froze.
What! What did he see?
Yun Sheng had collided head-on with the flame, the fiery red flames surged around her, yet instead of crying out in pain, she revealed a content smile.
On her forehead, there was a mark like a flame, turning her delicate face red, and at that moment, she looked exceptionally enchanting.
The Vermilion Bird let out a crisp cry, the sound melodious, reaching high into the sky.
In that sound, there was joy and a sense of closeness.
After dozens of moves, the Great Elder and Yun Canglang, hearing the unusual cries of the Vermilion Bird, turned to look downwards.
The Vermilion Bird, with its fiery red wings, not only did not attack Yun Sheng but instead kept circling around her non-stop.
Its plumage fluttering, wings fluttering gracefully, it seemed as if it were singing and dancing.
"How can this be?" The Great Elder had never seen the Totem Vermilion Bird react in such an unusual way.
The Vermilion Bird Totem is a Divine Beast, seldom close to humans, even the City Lord who possesses the Emperor Jade, has never been favored by the Vermilion Bird whenever using the Totem Emperor Jade.
But today, the Vermilion Bird was so close to a female Mage who it met for the first time!
The Great Elder took another careful look, his old eyes suddenly brightened when he saw the bright red mark on Yun Sheng’s forehead.
The mark was brightly colored, shaped somewhat like a Lianhua.
Looking alongside Yun Sheng, all flames that came close to her retracted like facing a king, daring not to come any closer.
Elf Karma Fire!
This was the Elf Karma Fire, that makes all worldly fires retreat, the last remnant of Karma Fire left in the world by the Fire Elf Queen.
Capable of burning the heavens and boiling the seas, turning everything to ashes.
Could it be that this female Mage, who came with Yun Canglang, is actually a powerful being who has received the inheritance of the Elf Karma Fire!
