Chapter 70: Double Extreme Flame

"I have a question. You can’t even approach human-made buildings, yet you want to surpass humanity? Logically, this alone shows that humanity is beyond your reach. Don’t you have coherent thinking?"

Yun Ye said.

"I just want to eat humans, and I have indeed surpassed humanity. Immortality, invincibility, power—aren’t these what I once dreamt of? …Hehe, it seems I must take this more seriously; otherwise, I won’t get a taste of your blood."

Shi Qing laughed, and at that moment, his fangs finally emerged. His once human eyes turned completely jade-green, and the demonic energy coiling around him surged explosively.

"True Form Divine Ability?"

Yun Ye clearly observed the changes with his Spirit Sense and immediately made his judgment.

This was a significant aspect of the later examinations at the Academy.

Some monsters have multiple forms, and their power undergoes tremendous changes when they switch forms.

The process of transforming from weak to strong is called True Form Divine Ability.

It is said that Physical Law can also master similar powers.

This ability enhances the body in all aspects and grants special abilities; when a monster uses True Form Divine Ability, it signifies that the battle has entered the fiercest showdown!

"It’s simply marvelous! This sense of power makes me feel like squashing you is as easy as squashing an ant…"

"Just like this!"

Shi Qing raised his hand and waved towards Yun Ye from afar.

Boom!

A certain invisible, terrifying attack struck, cutting through the entire line at a speed of at least a thousand meters per second.

To an ordinary person, this attack would seem like divine punishment, tearing them to shreds before they even realized it.

But to powerful Spiritual Law masters, including Yun Ye, who mastered Heart Fire, this was just an ordinary attack.

Is it fast?

Yun Ye’s Spirit Sense clearly tracked the trajectory of the attack, and he directly sidestepped it, stepping closer to Shi Qing.

Everything in the world slowed down rapidly. Though Yun Ye appeared to be walking step by step, his thoughts couldn’t keep pace; he was moving purely through Spirit Sense.

And how fast was that?

After cultivating his energy to perfection, Yun Ye already surpassed ordinary humans by several times, easily reaching a speed of twenty meters per second while running.

After the Spiritual Roots revival, he could reach at least a hundred meters per second.

The reason it wasn’t a tenfold increase was mainly due to air resistance; Yun Ye couldn’t simply multiply his speed by ten, as a great deal of energy was required to overcome air resistance.

Nevertheless, with his Heart Fire multiplying his physical qualities by thirty times, Yun Ye’s speed exceeded the speed of sound, reaching several times the speed of sound.

That was in the past.

Yun Ye’s Heart Fire used to enhance both speed and reaction time, but now with Spirit Sense…

Why bother enhancing reaction speed?

Thus, Yun Ye’s Heart Fire amplification factor had risen to fifty times, representing a leap in quality.

In this situation, Yun Ye’s speed could already match the invisible attack; whether it was dodging or counterattacking, it was nothing more than child’s play for him.

"Clang!"

Shi Qing’s right arm was severed by Yun Ye, making a loud sound like cutting metal.

As Shi Qing’s pupils widened and the eerie blue flames began to pour out,

Yun Ye calmly activated his Spirit Armor, merging the demon-subduing power of the Spirit Armor with the demon-subduing flames of his Spiritual Sword.

Then,

One sword sliced through Shi Qing’s eyes.

Another sword pierced through Shi Qing’s head.

To Yun Ye’s surprise, even after all this, Shi Qing still had the strength to resist, showing no signs of death.

"Can ordinary swords and demon-subduing flames not kill?"

Yun Ye delivered a final kick to Shi Qing’s chest, the terrifying force sending Shi Qing flying into the air. For a moment, Yun Ye felt a distortion in time and space; he did this only to make Shi Qing lose his ability to resist, coincidentally mirroring how he died in his first life.

"Aurora Flame!"

Yun Ye exited his Heart Fire state, enveloped himself in the colorless Bathing Fire Feather Coat, and infused the Mingzhu bamboo sword with the Azure Flame.

Then,

Boom!

Yun Ye hurled the Mingzhu bamboo sword, stabbing it directly into Shi Qing’s chest, and the terrifying flames spread instantly.

Even the indestructible body of a spiritual zombie was vulnerable under the corrosion of the Azure Flame, igniting and burning in the sky.

"Heart Fire!"

Yun Ye then transformed into his Heart Fire state; the Azure Flame reached its peak in destructive capacity, bringing zero enhancement to the body.

Even with Spirit Sense, Yun Ye would not leave behind any future problems; the possibility of being caught off guard and killed did not exist for him!

"Ahhhh!"

Shi Qing, nearly killed in an instant, fully revealed his true form, his pale patterns covering his whole body, and his flesh rapidly expanding, as the severed arm seemed to regenerate.

But how powerful was the Azure Flame? Gradually, it began to melt Shi Qing’s body from the chest, rendering the full reveal of his true form useless.

With no choice, Shi Qing forced himself to pull out the Mingzhu bamboo sword. As he pressed both hands on the blade, it rapidly evaporated; even with his incredible Demonic Power gathered, he could only slow the process, not fully stop it.

"The temperature of the Azure Flame surpasses that of the sun’s surface; only spiritual beings can defend against it. In some ways, Shi Qing’s body has truly exceeded all materials on Earth."

Yun Ye certainly would not wait for Shi Qing to pull out the sword. According to the knowledge about demons recorded in Baishi Town, spiritual zombies possess more than one divine ability; if he waited for Shi Qing to draw the sword, the situation might change.

"Fighting will not allow you to reveal all your trump cards, life is life, and death is death!"

"Double Extreme Flame—"

"Heart Fire!"

"Celestial Fire!"

Yun Ye transformed into a cold executor, dividing his mind into two; the previously difficult-to-control Extreme Flame was born in perfect order. As Yun Ye burned with Heart Fire inside, the Celestial Fire enveloped his arm from the outside.

He stepped on the ground, and cracks spread like a spider web, while he shot up into the sky.

Shi Qing was still in a state of rising and moving away, but the power of Yun Ye’s kick was truly terrifying.

Reaching the sky, Yun Ye did not hesitate. He flipped in mid-air, appearing above Shi Qing.

The flames on his arm transferred to his legs, and then—

Boom!

A whip-like kick slammed Shi Qing into the ground, and the Azure Flame made contact with Shi Qing’s body at that moment, burning the area Yun Ye struck into ashes.

By the time Shi Qing landed, only a small fraction of his body remained. He struggled desperately to regenerate.

But Yun Ye had already pulled the Mingzhu bamboo sword from the ground, driving it into Shi Qing’s head, completely burning out his life.

"Spiritual zombies, this ability of immortality is truly terrifying; it turns out you must burn the body completely to kill… "

The weaknesses of Spiritual Law masters are significant, as they have not fully transcended the limits of humanity.

If one were to speak honestly, perhaps the Water and Wood Spiritual Law might have a chance to acquire such rapid regeneration abilities.

But that would only be regeneration; if stabbed in the head with a sword, one would still die, it’s impossible to recover as a zombie would even if their head exploded.

"Huh? Are there explosion materials?"

Among the ashes, Yun Ye discovered an unusual object that seemed to be the essence left after the spiritual zombie burned.

A red crystal.
