Little Flame Belle was furious. If she could fight these Viscera Hunters on the land, she could easily burn them into ashes with her Soul-grade flames, killing them instantly if they dared to block her path. Most annoyingly, these Viscera Hunters were too close to water. They were using the water to reduce the heat of the Flame Swords before blocking them with their bodies. The Flame Swords had no chance of burning through their bones after losing so much of their heat!

“Stay calm. Even if their water isn’t as strong as our Soul-grade flames, it’s normal for water to be strong against fire. Little Flame Belle, you should withdraw your Domain slightly. Your fire will be hindered a lot more if you spread it too far away. You’re only wasting your energy,” Mo Fan comforted her. He knew she was feeling impatient.

Little Flame Belle was not just standing by when she was Possessing Mo Fan. The raging flames engulfing Mo Fan, the Fire Domain spreading a few hundred meters away, and the Fire Magic acc.u.mulating around Mo Fan were all under Little Flame Belle’s control. Whenever she Possessed Mo Fan, it was the two of them fighting together, instead of Mo Fan fighting by himself!

Little Flame Belle withdrew her meaningless Domain and only maintained a small ring of flames around them, using it to evaporate the raindrops since she would feel extremely uncomfortable if the rain fell on her!

“Try to gather the flames. I heard there’s a kind of lava deep in the sea that even the cold water struggles to cool. They only solidify into rocks after a long time. If our flames are concentrated enough with a high enough temperature, their water won’t stand a chance against our Soul-grade flames…” Mo Fan told Little Flame Belle his plan patiently.

Little Flame Belle agreed with Mo Fan. She started gathering the flames and refining them into a flame with higher density!

She temporarily put the Ardent Sunset and Meteor Scarlet aside. She placed all her focus on the Calamity Fire.

The Calamity Fire was Little Flame Belle’s natal flame, and she was able to dig out more energy from it. She currently needed a refined version of it instead of trying to spread it all over the place. She turned herself into a little furnace where the Fire Magic was constantly refined. She would soon produce a purer version of the Calamity Fire!

Mo Fan was hara.s.sing the Viscera Hunters with his s.p.a.ce Element as he waited for Little Flame Belle to refine the flame. He soon noticed the color of the ring of flame about him turning from a faint brown-red to a much more vivid hue!

The Calamity Fire’s strength might be restricted by the level of the Soul-grade Fire, but if Little Flame Belle kept refining the flame with Fire Magic, she could modify the fire’s temperature and density. The fire would last longer and would be harder to be put out!

“Ling!~” Little Flame Belle let out an excited cry, telling her king that the furnace was heated!

“Alright! Let’s show them what we’ve got!” Mo Fan could already feel the difference in the Calamity Fire.

“Let them have a taste of the phoenix!”

Mo Fan extended his arms as Little Flame Belle spread the refined Calamity Fire around him.

The flames spread out under Mo Fan’s control. Not only were they engulfing Mo Fan’s body, they further took on the shape of a flaming bird, making Mo Fan look like a sacred phoenix who had just been reborn!

Shen Qing and Zhang Lulin were dumbfounded when they saw the sacred phoenix rising into the sky, stacked on top of Mo Fan’s figure amid the rain.

They had never seen any Fire Spell that was able to merge with its Caster. They were unable to tell if some heavenly fire spirit had Possessed him or the Aura of his Fire Element was actually that imperious!

The pure and rising cry of a phoenix rang out, and the phoenix-clad Mo Fan dove for the fierce waves below. The brilliant light of the attack immediately dyed the gray sea red!

The Viscera Hunters were still using their previous tactic of forming a s.h.i.+eld with their bodies. Their bones were indeed quite st.u.r.dy, and the layer of water flowing over them strengthened them like a steel sh.e.l.l.

The layer of bones above the Magical Sea Beast was indeed a strong layer of protection against Mo Fan’s Raging Phoenix!

The refined Calamity Fire was much stronger than before. The waves splashed as the rain poured down heavily upon them. In the past, the flames would gradually weaken during the flight, but it was not the same this time. The waves and the rain were struggling to get closer to the refined Calamity Fire no matter how fierce and cold they were. They evaporated instantly after reaching a certain distance.

The Raging Phoenix smashed down on the Viscera Hunters and broke through the layer of water first, the first protective layer covering their bones. Previously, Mo Fan’s Fire Spell would be weakened by half after making contact with the water, but after he increased the temperature and density of the Calamity Fire, the layer of water could no longer resist its force!

The flames finally struck the bones of the Viscera Hunters directly!

The Viscera Hunters were only Warrior-level creatures in the end. The layer of water could not regenerate continuously if they were out of the sea. After losing the important protection, they were only as tough as Warrior-level creatures on the land!

They were not Commander-level creatures, which meant they would be killed instantly by Mo Fan’s flames!

After Mo Fan and Little Flame Belle broke down the water membrane, the flames continued to melt through the Viscera Hunters’ bones!

The Viscera Hunters cried out in agony. They had bravely stacked their bodies up to s.h.i.+eld the Magical Sea Beast, but they now wished they had a few extra pairs of legs just so they could run away from the wrath of the Phoenix. Unfortunately, they no longer had the chance after they grew too full of themselves!

The Viscera Hunters had formed a mountain of bones without any visible gaps when they were stacked together. However, the Phoenix soon melted a huge hole right through the mountain, killing a third of the Viscera Hunters in seconds!

The last thing these creatures should have done was bundle up together against a destructive Mage like Mo Fan. If Mo Fan found a way to break through their defenses, he would reduce them to a pile of ashes!

“A chance!”

Zhang Xiaohou had finished luring another group of Viscera Hunters away. He was figuring out a way to make his way through the Viscera Hunters when Mo Fan simply tore a huge hole right through them with the Raging Phoenix!
