Legend of the Great Sage

.

Water and fire, the two tremendous powers, became locked in a maddening contest, clashing over every single inch of space!

The flames illuminated the thick clouds, dyeing them a magnificent colour.
The torrential rain poured down through the wind, reflecting the fire and leaving thousands of bright streaks in the air.

Li Qingshan’s eyes glistened as he gazed at this magnificent view.
He could not help but purse his lips.
All the blood in him bubbled slightly while Tiger’s Fang in his hand thrummed gently.

Gong Yuan remained worried.
Right below was Fire Melt mountain, the place that all Merfolk Kings had dreamt of conquering, but now that she had actually led an army here, she could not help but wonder whether she was actually in the right or not.
What if they failed?

But as she gazed at Li Qingshan beside her, she gradually calmed down.
Right now, he did not possess any of the arrogance and casualness that she loathed.
He was completely relaxed, yet tense at the same time, like a vicious tiger ready to strike, lying in the jungle quietly.
His heart was as firm as steel, without any fear or hesitation.
He radiated with elegant and sedated murderousness, possessing an aggressive beauty of masculinity.

Just how great would it be if he was like this all the time? Gong Yuan could not help but sigh like that inside.

“What’s wrong?” Li Qingshan glanced at her in a strange manner.

“It’s almost time.” Gong Yuan pointed at Fire melt mountain below.
“The exterior protective formation is close to collapsing.”

Under the constant invasion of the torrents, the protective formation’s glow rapidly faded and dimmed.

The attacks that several thousand Merfolk warriors unleashed under the lead of the three Merfolk Kings was far too vicious, and a range of four hundred kilometers was far too large at the end of the day.
The fire devourers had tended to this place for many years, but the exterior protective formation was still extremely limited in defensive power.
If Zhu Zai had not maintained it with the Fire Tablet of Earth in hand, it would have collapsed long ago.

“It’s all thanks to this storm.
Fire Melt mountain sure is a tough nut that’s even harder than I imagined to crack!” Li Qingshan nodded in agreement.
The storm had played a critical role, or simply breaching the exterior protective formation would have been extremely difficult.
It would have been impossible for Ji Changfeng to hold off Zhu Fen’s meteors alone too.

The power of the formation originated from the flames of the earth, and the flames of the earth burned away forever.
They could not be extinguished, and they did not run out.
No matter how great the strength of cultivators were, they still stood no chance.

Only the might of the world could contend with the might of the world, and within the five elements, water regulated fire.
Merfolk were not as belligerent as the fire devourers, but water truly did have a natural advantage over fire.

“It’s all just probing us out.
Don’t drop your guard!” Gong Yuan reminded him.
The three Fire Devouring Kings had yet to unleash their true strength.
In particular, the giant god of fire that stood there with a furious expression made them wary.
Who knew what kind of terrifying existence it would be.

“That goes without saying.
If this is all that the fire devourers are capable of, that would be far too disappointing!”

Before he had even finished talking, a sense of warning suddenly sprung up in Li Qingshan’s heart.
The falling meteors suddenly stopped.

“Do it!” Zhu Feng bellowed.
From the tip of the Fire Tablet of Heaven, a red star rose up into the sky, growing larger and larger, brighter and brighter, just like a scarlet sun.

“Fire Dragons of the Land, Devastation of the Lightning Fire!” Zhu Zai cried out.
The black plumes from the several thousand volcanoes suddenly twisted and gathered above Fire Melt mountain, turning into a black smoke dragon several tens of thousand kilometers long.
It opened its eyes that resembled lava, and horns and claws jutted out.
Lightning crackled through its body.
It was like a creature from a nightmare.

The giant god of fire leapt up and landed on the back of the dragon.
It raised a spear of flames high into the air, pointing at everyone in the sky.
A scarlet sun fell down from above, illuminating the land and forming the backdrop.

Nothing happened when the three of them did nothing, but it was world-shaking the moment they did.
