Chapter 751: Chapter 220: Imperial Capital Revisited, Blossoms Bloom Twice

The Pocket Beast Tide barely left the flag area when it started to grow with the wind, transforming from its miniature form into a giant beast.

The terrifying outburst, frequency, and speed, were as if countless Third Grade Powerhouses had suddenly converged, simultaneously attacking the Golden Giant.

But the Golden Giant was prepared. He opened his mouth, and a surge of Withered Fire spewed out!

The Withered Fire was ejected in a similarly compressed, violent manner, just like a "High-pressure Fire Gun."

The fire engulfed the Beast Tide.

The two forces clashed in mid-air like "two beams of red and white light colliding."

In an instant...

The Beast Tide was annihilated!

But it wasn’t over yet.

Even though all the beasts were dead, a Bronze Beast Shadow still lunged forward.

Li Yuan exhausted his fire, then opened his mouth wide and bit down on the beast shadow, channeling the flames within his body towards the bronze beast shadow from all directions.

Another instant...

The bronze beast shadow turned to ash and smoke.

Wei Huosheng was stunned, the copper-colored flags around him spinning.

He turned and attempted to flee.

But the Golden Giant’s large hand was already in motion, flipping, swinging, slapping, and pressing.

Boom!!!!!!!

Wei Huosheng was carried down from mid-air, crushing heavily into the ground.

The surrounding mountains and forests suddenly shook, with the earth cracking for miles around.

Mountains crumbled, rocks rolled, the ground split, with depths measuring several meters.

The five fingers then suddenly grabbed, tightly clenching the just-landed Wei Huosheng in its palm, leaving only his head exposed.

The Golden Giant’s thumb pressed down on Wei Huosheng’s head; a slight press would embed it into the palm, where the flames emanating from the Golden Body would incinerate him to ashes and smoke.

Li Yuan gazed indifferently at the little ant in his palm.

Listening to its words, observing its actions, and discerning its thoughts, going with the flow.

Cunning was never something pre-arranged, merely taking advantage of an opportunity, going with the flow...

At this moment, Li Yuan had formed a judgment within his heart.

So, he uttered a cold, ancient, and curse-filled voice: "Bring a message for me... Betrayal comes with a price."

Wei Huosheng was stunned, "You’re letting me go?"

Bang!

Li Yuan’s fingers pressed down, and immeasurable Withered Fire surged from the gaps between his fingers.

This was the full strength of Li Yuan’s body.

However, Wei Huosheng, held within his fist, was not that easy to kill.

This time, it was genuinely difficult for him to escape, yet those three flags still fiercely protected him.

It all came down to a contest of strength.

The two parties no longer spoke...

Time ticked by.

The commotion finally attracted the attention of Huakai Town.

Silhouettes flew up into the sky, stopping a few miles away from the battlefield, gazing from afar at the scene that struck terror into their hearts and souls.

"What monster is that?"

"It’s not a monster, it’s a hundred-zhang Divine Spirit..."

"That Divine Spirit seems to have Lord Wei in its hand."

Brief conversations revealed a sense of oppression and fear.

No one dared to approach, and two men, dressed differently from the Lotus Sect disciples with red armor, were equally shocked.

On the streets of Huakai Town, Peng Mi concealed his inner joy with a look of panic.

Another red-robed man, whose face was disfigured, subtly retreated to the back of the crowd.

This red-robed man was Fang Jianlong.

He had traveled from the Southern Land to Jade Capital, then retreated with the Lotus Sect from Jade Capital to Huakai Town, now serving as an Elder of the Red Lotus Sect.

But now, he felt that this place brimmed with danger.

Currently, High Grade Meat Fields are emerging everywhere, and he may not need to hold on here until death.

He intended to leave, perhaps even live a life as an ordinary person under an assumed name... better than dying inexplicably in the confrontations of these monsters.

Thinking of this, he quickened his steps, seizing the chaos to retrieve his pre-prepared luggage from his house, and swiftly departed in Hidden Form.

He barely went far when he heard a deafening explosion in the distance.

With a thunderous sound, everyone’s eardrums seemed torn, their heads buzzing.

The Golden Giant had already crushed Wei Huosheng.

The two red-robed men turned to flee.

But perhaps considering that the sky was too conspicuous, they quickly descended to the ground and began to traverse.

This was a normal judgment.

Unfortunately... "normal" was the perfect attack ground for the Earth Soul.

One of the red-robed men entered a door, only to be dragged by Li Yuan to directly explode in front of him.

The other was intercepted from afar by Li Yuan utilizing the "Nine Temporary Patrol Tokens," unable to evade, and was blasted away.

After completing all these, Li Yuan felt extremely mentally exhausted.

But he endured the fatigue, first retracting the Golden Body, then picking up the three-sided small flags dropped by Wei Huosheng from the ground, retrieving the chimney-like Earth Fire Sword from a distance, placing it into a box Ghost Hand took from a certain sundry shop, then hid them in a concealed cave, intending to study them later.

He then transformed his form into an unnoticed little bug perched on a tree, resting for a while.

A cool breeze blew gently, moving the bug’s wings.

Today’s spoils of battle were quite satisfactory to him.

He reviewed the previous fight.

In this battle, Wei Huosheng hadn’t been able to use the Earth Fire Sword, yet he employed the Red Armor and three-sided small flags.

The Red Armor didn’t only serve a defensive purpose, but could also replenish energy temporarily.

The small flags were multifunctional in both attack and defense, and probably were a Third Grade Weapon.

At that time, while creating the Fourth Grade Spirit Array, he spoke of "Spirit Array, Spirit Array," yet in reality, it was still a Spiritual Artifact, merely one with "area attack" capabilities.
