Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 57: Second Life
The moment the flame entered his body, Xiao Yan felt a huge suction force. The mud, sand and dust around him were directly stuck to his face and body, as if they were going to penetrate through his fine pores.

At this moment, his body was in a mess. Under the ravages of the Void Fire, the cyclone was swallowed up and dimmed, shrinking by more than 90% of its size, and was as precarious as a candle in the wind.

Xiao Yan's face twitched. After hesitating for a moment, he actually lowered his head and dived into the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, drinking the water in big gulps, trying to slow down the speed at which the Dou Qi in his body was absorbed.

When the Ice Spirit Cold Spring entered his body, it automatically condensed into a layer of frost barrier. However, the main body of the spring water was completely swallowed up by the Void Fire. No matter how hard he drank, the effect was still only better than nothing.

After drinking until the throat was filled with water, he lost all feeling and the speed at which Zihuo swallowed it finally slowed down a lot.

At this time, the blood scabs on his body had all disappeared. Xiao Yan no longer hesitated and took out the last Earth Spirit Pill for backup. With his torn hands, he endured the severe pain, pulled out the cork, and poured the pill into his mouth.

A light green light emerged from around Xiao Yan's body, and then, the strands of water elements in the Ice Spirit Cold Spring gradually turned into gentleness, continuously gathering into Xiao Yan's body, forming a strange film.

The moment he took it, Xiao Yan's complexion immediately looked much better. He secretly admired that this was indeed a sixth-grade elixir made by Yao Lao, and its medicinal properties were much softer and smoother than ordinary elixirs.

"But if this continues, I'll still be exhausted to death."

Coughing out a wisp of black sparks, the boy looked inward at his body, his expression still solemn.

The effect of the medicine will wear off sooner or later, and by then, as one weakens while the other weakens, the Void Fire will once again gain the upper hand. With his small body, it is impossible for him to withstand the impact of the sixth-grade elixir.

The Earth Spirit Pill temporarily took on the task of suppressing the Zi Fire. Therefore, Xiao Yan, who had temporarily escaped from the life-and-death race, forced himself to calm down and carefully seek countermeasures.

After the previous fight, it was not difficult to see that the Void Fire had already been weakened to the extreme after being suppressed by Hun Ruoruo, just like the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Fire before, with only a wisp of the original fire remaining.

This state is not impossible to contend with. The real tricky part is not the energy fluctuations, but the extremely strange devouring ability of the Void Fire.

The powerful devouring ability constantly refreshed Xiao Yan's cognition. Flesh, fighting spirit, and even souls, such invisible and intangible things, would be plundered by the black flame. This kind of ability was truly worthy of being ranked second on the Strange Fire List.

Even though it is extremely weak, it is enough to look down upon all the fires in the world.

Because of this, if we don't break this devouring power, we can't even start refining it.
As time passed, the effect of the Earth Spirit Pill gradually reached its limit. Under the continuous erosion of the devouring power, the Earth Spirit Pill, as a sixth-grade pill, only bought Xiao Yan less than half an hour.

The sense of crisis of death began to invade Xiao Yan's body and consciousness, distracting him from time to time, and he inevitably began to panic.

Xiao Yan knew that once the effect of the Earth Spirit Pill wore off, he would be facing the strange fire without any protection.
Noticing the disorder in Xiao Yan's aura, Yao Lao frowned and released his soul power, isolating all factors around him that might interfere with the other party. He then suppressed the impulse in his heart and refrained from disturbing him.

Gradually, the thin film formed by the Earth Spirit Pill almost disappeared, and the black flames that were much more powerful than before attacked again, causing Xiao Yan's internal organs to almost twist into a ball with pain.

As the power continued to decline, the momentum of the Void Fire completely swept up the cyclone and enveloped it. The strange black flames not only burned Xiao Yan's internal organs, but also devoured his soul which was gradually losing the protection of the Qingshen Pill.

"This feeling is more like the life-and-death trial that Ruoruo made me go through. However, this time, it seems like no one can help me."

Intermittent hoarse sounds came out from the almost burned vocal cords, and the boy's consciousness gradually became blurred.

Is it still too difficult for a fighter to absorb the strange fire?

Even if Ruoruo already knew the will required to refine the strange fire, I would remove my reliance and sharpen it.
Even though Ruoruo had already seized the opportunity and weakened the strange fire to the extreme.
Even if Ruoruo gathered the extremely precious Ice Spirit Spring here at all costs like sprinkling water,
I guess I still haven't been able to do it.

Feeling somewhat regretful for the boast he had made earlier, Xiao Yan felt even more ashamed and humiliated for breaking his promise than the boundless pain he had endured. The torment on his body and soul caused the string that had already been broken to the limit to break quietly.

The only remaining light before his eyes was eroded by darkness, and Xiao Yan's soul also fell into silence.

……

……

……

……

If only I could possess something that wouldn't be consumed by the Void Fire.
This thought suddenly occurred to his almost scattered consciousness. If it wasn't devoured, it actually meant it couldn't be analyzed. Xiao Yan had already firmly memorized this point during Yao Lao's explanation, but how could the Heavenly Rank Fighting Skills be so far away from the Burning Technique he was practicing?
It was a huge gap, almost like a mayfly seeing the sky.

Looking inward at the circulation of the cyclone in his body, after noticing the few remaining strands of Dou Qi, Xiao Yan's twisted face revealed a ferocious look, and thick blood plasma with little water overflowed from between his teeth, frantically urging the dim cyclone in his body.

Even if I die, I can't just wait to die in such a cowardly way!

The Dou Qi cyclone struggled to start moving. When the last few remaining strands of Dou Qi were all drawn out, Xiao Yan felt a sense of blessing coming to his mind, which pulled him back from the fear of death.

Just when he was wondering where this wonderful feeling in his heart came from, a faint blue-purple light suddenly flashed in the deepest part of the originally dim fighting cyclone.

"This"

After seeing the blue-purple light, Xiao Yan was stunned for a long time. Suddenly, a relieved smile appeared on his dry lips. For a moment, he felt a sense of relief as if he had turned a corner and saw the light at the end of the tunnel.

The answer is already obvious——

That is Ruoruo's special fighting spirit.

"I didn't expect that I would still have to rely on you in the end. However, this step is not under your control after all."

There was a hint of complaint in the boy's hoarse words, but perhaps he did not notice the tenderness in his eyes at this moment.

Just like the breeze in midsummer, it always brings a slight warmth without people noticing. People may be surprised by this, or they may just laugh it off as a normal summer day.
“This time, I will improve.”

He secretly made a decision in his heart, and forced the dim cyclone to circulate, pouring all his soul power into it, trying to imitate the charm of Hun Ruoruo's fighting spirit.

A little bit is enough to deal with the extremely weak fire.

The soul power came into contact with the pale yellow Dou Qi, forcibly intertwined and mixed together. Then, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and followed the trajectory of the Dou Qi at that time, slowly circulating it through the broken veins in his body.

Once. Twice
What excited him was that after the fighting spirit and soul power circulated several times according to the circulation of Hun Ruoruo's fighting spirit, a trace of special dark black fighting spirit gradually emerged.

With a nervous state of mind, Xiao Yan transformed that strand of Dou Qi into an offensive force, striking directly at the position occupied by the Void Zihuo.

The collision of black and black finally caused the Void Fire to lose its previous arrogance and instead began to flicker violently in fear.

"It really works!"

Xiao Yan's face was clearly pale, but an unprecedented ecstasy appeared on its surface. He urged the fusion of a strand of extremely black Dou Qi at all costs, allowing it to collide with the black flames in his veins.

Dou Qi exists in the cyclone, but the black flame is like water without roots. Even if it has an absolute upper hand and is weak to the extreme, it can't withstand the wave after wave of attacks launched by Xiao Yan who activates the extremely black Dou Qi at all costs.

Finally, after countless fights, the black-gold flame completely showed its weakness, and was dragged into the veins by the extremely black fighting spirit, and began to wander.
As the offensive and defensive momentum exchanged, Xiao Yan's aura changed dramatically almost instantly.

The black-gold light gradually began to flicker on the boy's body. The rising evil flames caused the surrounding cold springs to evaporate into large patches of white mist, which was strange and gorgeous.

Yao Lao, who had been clenching his fists and using all his strength to mobilize his soul power to wrap around Xiao Yan, finally let out a long breath at this moment, and his light golden eyes were filled with relief and tenderness.

Having fused with strange fire before, he is very familiar with this situation.

Xiao Yan succeeded.

"I didn't expect that the wisp of Dou Qi I absorbed earlier would become the key to this kid's breakthrough."

Yao Lao smiled slightly and murmured to himself, "It seems that Ruoruo is really his lucky star."
