Chapter 1057: Chapter 437: Thousand Thunders Summoned (Part 2)

Unfortunately, the withered fire is an external force, not cultivated from the Candle Yin Remains. It doesn’t have a deep mastery of it and hasn’t trained it to connect with the Root Source.

He reached out and summoned the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp from his personal space.

"Item Skills: Illuminating Void."

"Skill Description: The Four-sided Age Fire Lamp can manipulate flames lower in level than itself, transforming the controlled flames into Age Fire, dispelling evil and driving away plagues, causing demon fiends to flee."

After lighting the lamp wick, the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp turns from manipulating mortal flames to manipulating flames lower in level than itself.

This skill is rarely used by Wu Chang, but now it’s the perfect opportunity to utilize it.

With a gentle wave of the palace lantern in his hand, he stirred up a vortex within the fiercely burning withered fire array, absorbing the withered fire continuously into the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp.

The level of the withered fire falls far short of the Age Fire. If the Candle Yin Remains could master it to the Root Level, it might be able to resist somewhat, but at its current level, it can’t compete with the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp at all.

In the span of four or five breaths, the withered fire within the entire array was absorbed, including the flames on the separated limbs of the Candle Yin Remains.

The candle-like arm ends were left empty, continuing to run around in circles according to the trajectory of the withered fire array.

Wu Chang weighed the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp, the body of the lamp filled with fire, gaining a few degrees of heaviness.

The Candle Yin Remains, as the Fire Demon King, even if not a minor BOSS in the World Dungeon, could at least be considered a high-level elite monster.

The Four-sided Age Fire Lamp is only a B-level growth item, directly confiscating one of the major skills of the Candle Yin Remains, which is somewhat strenuous for it.

Since it can’t hold any more, let it out for now.

He raised the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp, releasing a torrent of Age Fire transformed from withered fire, engulfing the Candle Yin Remains.

A scream emitted from the mouth of the Candle Yin Remains, more poignant than when the Ghost Gate was broken before.

An Rong, witnessing everything, was filled with shock, having been truly surprised. He hadn’t expected Wu Chang to easily dispel the withered fire, which even Great Grandmasters found difficult to handle, with just a magical artifact.

What’s more, An Rong recognized the magical artifact Wu Chang used.

That palace lantern, used by the bandit gang as a core for the Age Sacrifice, was something he never imagined forgetting.

At the time, he hadn’t yet entered the path of cultivation, only finding the palace lantern extraordinary. Little did he know that after Wu Chang took it, and refined it again, it could have such a miraculous effect now.

His gaze towards Wu Chang and Erin held more reverence. Even among Grandmasters, they differ. Compared to those who live in luxury, rarely doing hands-on work, the Great Grandmasters of the Tang Sect, who fought their way with their lives, were the true Grandmasters.

Seizing this opportunity, he was determined to seek advice from Tang Sect Leader on demon-slaying experience.

As he marveled, he noticed the Candle Yin Remains showing signs of wanting to escape and rode the Mountain Guardian Beast to block its escape route.

This time, Erin did not stop him.

In the battlefield, after all, the Candle Yin Remains is the Fire Demon King. It possesses the Power of Root related to fire and receives the shelter of flames. Although it howls miserably in the Age Fire, it merely appears disheveled and hasn’t been hurt at its core.

With the continuous failure of the Ghost Gate and withered fire array, six out of its nine arms were lost, necessitating the absorption of numerous living beings to rebuild them.

Heart Flame proved ineffective, withered fire was crushed by Age Fire, and with more than half of its arms lost, the deeply damaged Candle Yin Remains no longer dared to tangle with Wu Chang, escaping skyward, wrapped in Age Fire.

Seeing the Candle Yin Remains flee, Wu Chang showed a look of disappointment, not having expected the Fire Demon King, which An Rong feared, to be of such caliber.

Seeing as the opponent couldn’t show any fiercer moves, it was time for it to exit the stage.

Currently, he assumed the identity of a Plane Native, thus needing to use means compatible with the World Dungeon Plane to deal with the Candle Yin Remains.

When the Candle Yin Remains appeared, it brought along vast dark clouds, which were perfect for Wu Chang’s spell materials.

Accompanying Wu Chang’s focus on the Candle Yin Remains, thunder rolled out from the dark clouds in the sky.

An Rong, blocking the way, couldn’t help but look up at the sky, exclaiming in awe, "Summoning a Thousand Thunders?"

The skill Wu Chang used at this moment was none other than the Thousand Thunder Summon, which he hadn’t used for quite a while.

However, it differed from the original version. The Thousand Thunder Summon he now used, contained the Demon-slaying Power of Celestial Thunder from the Five Thunders Technique in every bolt of lightning.

Boom!

The first Celestial Thunder struck down, with a lightning width sufficient to be embraced by one person, the Candle Yin Remains unable to dodge, reached out its two arms to block.

Under the Celestial Thunder, the two arms immediately turned to flying ashes, the residual force of the thunder undiminished, striking its tumor-like body, crashing it down from the sky.

Its tumor fell heavily to the ground. Before it could rise from the ground, the second Celestial Thunder followed immediately.

The lightning from the Thousand Thunder Summon, with every strike, damage would increase by fifty percent. The second Celestial Thunder struck down, not only rendering the Candle Yin Remains’ remaining two arms useless but also burning half its body into charcoal.

Then came the third, fourth...

When the fifth Celestial Thunder struck down, splitting into densely branched forks upon landing, it obliterated all the candle bugs transformed from Candle Yin Remains, its aura completely vanishing.

The Fire Demon King, once deemed by the Human Dao Alliance as a major threat, fell at this point.

Wu Chang arrived in front of the body of the Candle Yin Remains, crushing the tumor burnt to charcoal. Inside the ashes, he found a translucent candle bug similar to red jade.

"Item Name: Heart-burning Bug"

"Item Type: Special"

"Item Description: The core left behind after the death of the Fire Demon King Candle Yin Remains, grants the skill—Heart Flame upon absorption."

Wu Chang raised an eyebrow, not having expected to actually loot the Candle Yin Remains’ signature skill.

Heart Flame was ineffective against him, but it didn’t mean Heart Flame wasn’t strong. Judging from the resentment on Candle Yin Remains, Heart Flame, as a means of spiritual attack, was extremely powerful.
