Chapter 333 - Unleashing Every Means!

Boom!

A terrifying tide of flames swept across heaven and earth, turning everything within five hundred zhang into a blazing sea of fire. At the same time, a strange spatial force twisted into being, completely sealing Li Guanqi inside its domain. Within this space, fire-element spirit power surged in overwhelming concentration.

Miao Rongchang’s strength swelled, and his vital force recovery quickened. He smiled faintly and said softly, “To be honest, in all these centuries, you’re the fastest cultivator I’ve ever seen. It’s downright terrifying.

“There were plenty of times I wanted to kill you. Your rapid rise in strength and cultivation truly made me feel fear.”

He glanced around, then sneered. “This place will do nicely. Rest easy... and die here!”

Boom!

A tide of flames crashed down toward Li Guanqi!

His eyes narrowed. Lightning burst beneath his feet as he moved rapidly, dodging the inferno.

Zzzt!

A searing sound echoed. He looked down at his burning pant leg, and his heart sank. He hadn’t expected Old Miao’s power to be so overwhelming. That suffocating aura was almost as strong as that of a cultivator half a step into the Divine Transformation Realm.

𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Li Guanqi’s eyes flickered. Sword in hand, he darted through the void, weaving between torrents of fire as his divine consciousness swept outward, searching for an opening.

Suddenly, Miao Rongchang appeared behind him.

Clang!

Their swords collided, and fire exploded around Miao Rongchang.

Boom!

Lightning surged around Li Guanqi, condensing into a barrier before him. The blazing flames slammed into it with a deafening explosion.

Bang!

The barrier shattered. Dozens of sword lights tore through the fire, slashing toward him from every direction.

Li Guanqi’s expression hardened. His left-hand sword flared with dazzling lightning. In an instant, dozens of lightning beams intercepted every strike and flame before him.

But as the light scattered, the sea of fire behind him rose into towering waves that came crashing down.

His face changed. With his sword, he quickly drew a circle at his feet, vital force roaring through his body as he muttered in a low voice.

Boom!

The fiery tsunami descended, the heavens themselves seeming to collapse.

Miao Rongchang’s expression hardened. He didn’t dare show a trace of carelessness. His fingers formed seals as he roared, “Spell 221—Torrential Flames!”

Boom!

The fire within the domain surged again, wave after wave crashing toward Li Guanqi. The blazing sea hammered furiously against a single speck of purple light at its center.

Miao Rongchang pulled out one talisman after another, slapping them onto his body as each ignited violently. His clothes burst apart, fluttering wildly in the scorching wind.

His eyes gleamed with anticipation, as sharp as an eagle’s. From the very beginning, Miao Rongchang gave it his all. He knew Li Guanqi’s swordsmanship and physique were both formidable.

His withered palms plunged into the sea of fire.

Boom!

His aura surged even higher, flooding the void with crushing pressure. His hair whipped in the blazing currents, but his eyes remained locked firmly on Li Guanqi.

Flames crawled up his arms as he roared, “Spell 196—Flame Burial!”

Vital force surged wildly. The waves of fire froze for an instant, then folded outward like flower petals before collapsing inward with devastating power.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The bombardment raged for more than ten breaths.

The suspended bridges in the domain turned to ash. Even the ground before the two colossal statues melted into a crater dozens of zhang deep.

Miao Rongchang’s chest heaved violently. He swallowed several pills in quick succession, his eyes narrowing. Even with the advantage of his domain, even after unleashing his strongest spells in rapid succession, he dared not relax.

He had watched Li Guanqi for nearly two years. He knew all too well how tenacious Li Guanqi was. Unless he personally severed his head and crushed his nascent soul, he would never dare to assume victory.

Even a lion had to use its full strength to hunt a rabbit—especially when that rabbit ranked on the Nascent Soul Leaderboard.

Yet within the blazing sea, a blood-soaked figure still stood proudly.

Buzz!

A faint bolt of lightning flickered within the flames. Miao Rongchang’s face changed at once. In the next instant, fire burst beneath his feet as he vanished from sight.

Boom!

A terrifying sword light of pure lightning tore through the sea of fire.

Boom!

The devastating lightning sword beam split the sea of fire apart, shaking the very domain until it warped and cracked.

From its center, a tide of lightning erupted. A bare-chested figure stood tall, clad in a shattered suit of lightning armor. His eyes gleamed white, his killing intent laid bare.

The moment Miao Rongchang saw that armor, his pupils dilated and his throat tightened. The lightning armor had withstood two spells and remained largely intact. It had to be a spell, but of what rank, he could not even guess.

Before he could think further, the crackling lightning began to suppress the entire fire domain.

Li Guanqi’s cold voice cut through the air. “Sword Prison! Open!”

Boom!

Thunder roared, lightning flashed, and the lightning power engulfed the domain, spreading outward for eight hundred zhang.

Only then did Miao Rongchang’s face truly change. He slashed at the air, but the void only trembled faintly. There were no distortions or fluctuations.

His voice trembled as he muttered, “A domain?! When did you comprehend a domain?!”
