The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 556 - 244: Burn, Fire of Vengeance!_3

"Arrogant! Utterly arrogant!"

"A fight against a peer is an absolute display of self-confidence. His real target is Qin Quan!"

"Heh, this old man is not likable, finally someone wants to punish him!"

...

The young audience cheers uncontrollably.

Seasoned veterans, each with furrowed brows and various expressions.

"Good! Good! Good!"

"I indeed can’t swallow this anger. Since you’re asking for a fight, I will accompany you to the end!"

With a loud bang, he shatters a jade brick under his foot.

Qin Quan, like a snowman stepping out of an iceberg, radiates a chilling aura, forcing the nearby Fond Spirits to retreat several tens of steps.

Two marks flicker, and two icy blue figures appear beside him.

One of them is the ’Ice Arrow Frozen Fox’, its head sharp and slender. Its slender limbs support its body on the ground - there is no elegance, only frost.

The other is the ’Turbo Ice Beast’, which superficially resembles a snail, but it can float in mid-air, with the surrounding air currents revolving around it.

Qin Quan - also a D-class Ice Mage!

His two Contracted Fond Spirits - both small achievements in the Life Wheel!

"Sssss!!!"

The freezing oppression seems to be the last straw breaking the barrier.

A wave of wild fire gushes out from the Flame Child. After a brief golden flash, its body becomes more robust, its arms become thicker, its spear tip becomes sharper, and even the Wind Fire Wheel under its feet becomes quicker and denser.

Life Wheel Virtual Summon - Flame Child!

The Ice Wing Dragon has become its grinding stone, actively bearing the erosion of frost. Its only value is to suppress the bloodline and facilitate the charge to a higher layer.

"Roar! Rawr!!!"

The Three Tailed Flame Tiger appears, its three tails burning with flames. With a simple swaying, it naturally stirs up a hot airflow.

"Two Life Wheel Virtual Summons, how are you going to fight my small-achievement level Life Wheel?"

Qin Quan roars, jumps onto the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox, and goes on the offensive without hesitation.

"Swoosh!!!"

The Ice Fox fires arrows, an onslaught of thousands of delicate ice arrows, filling the sky and indiscriminately sweeping across everything.

The Turbo Ice Beast quickly devours the surrounding air, transforming it into a chilling wind of ice and frost, sweeping towards the front, seeking to drown and freeze everything in its path.

"Move! Give them space!"

Without need for explanation, the audience scrambles to clear space once again, somewhat clumsily.

Dongfang Xu roars with laughter. A fireball materializes from thin air, hovering above his head.

"Life Wheel Virtual Summon is enough to suppress you!"

"Young punk, stop your tough talk, I’m not holding back!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Seven fireballs appear around the Three Tailed Flame Tiger. Loyal as guardians, they block the enemy’s approach.

With a whoosh, the three tails of the Three Tailed Flame Tiger seem to transform into three sharp blades of fire. When swept horizontally through the air, they effortlessly shred the incoming ice needles and ice arrows.

"Go!"

Qin Quan uses ’Elemental Burst’ to enhance the power of the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox’s next attack.

Dongfang Xu smirks, suddenly transforming into a streak of firelight, merging into the Three Tailed Flame Tiger.

"He disappeared?"

Qin Quan’s eyes bulge, momentarily caught off guard.

His originally targeted skill naturally misses. The Three Tailed Flame Tiger roars and wields its three fiery blades, chopping up the ice wall in front of it like cutting vegetables.

"There’s no sign of him weakening?"

"That’s Qin Quan, a powerhouse of the old school. When he made a name for himself, Dongfang Xu probably wasn’t even born yet. Now they are in a duel, moving like thunder and fire, evenly matched."

Cries of awe intermittently echo around.

Whenever the Three Tailed Flame Tiger does not retreat but charges forward, absorbing the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox’s attacks, someone will surely gasp.

The situation in people’s imagination where one is at a disadvantage has not occurred. Despite the ’Elemental Burst’ power, the Three Tailed Flame Tiger and Flame Child don’t seem to be suppressed by the frost. Each time they’re injured, it only spurs their fighting spirit. Then they fight even harder, with even higher morale.

"The leader of the Flame Thieves... his rank has likely reached C-level!"

"Yeah, Old Qin has a class advantage, but his rank is not as high as the young Dongfang. It’s an addition and subtraction, it’s normal that neither side can win in a short time."

Right when they were speaking, the situation suddenly changes.

Whether it was the Flame Child or the Three-Tailed Red Flame Tiger, their posture in battle was far more ferocious than usual.

They seemed to sense the dueling heart of Dongfang Xu thumping resolutely, willing to exchange injuries for the sake of gaining an advantage, doing everything in their power.

"No need to prolong the fight, give him a big present directly!"

Dongfang Xu was still shrouded, using the Active Ability of the "Incarnation Flame", he was able to hide within the flames, amplifying his Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits while preserving himself.

However, his voice echoed out, and in response, an phantom-like fire bottle suddenly began to take form.

"Roar!!"

"Hiss!!"

As if responding to his voice, the Three Tailed Flame Tiger and the Flame Child unleashed furious roars simultaneously.

They suddenly retreated, briefly freeing themselves from the entanglement of the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox and the Turbo Ice Beast.

Under numerous watchful eyes, the crimson flames burning on their bodies suddenly gathered towards the phantom fire bottle.

A far more oppressive and dangerous aura presented itself in everyone’s senses.

Many young and novice upper-class nobles felt a pain in their hearts, and their skin began to turn red.

Their elders noticed the anomaly and immediately set up various barriers, managing to keep the terrifying high temperature under control.

"If you can withstand this attack, I will end my grudge with the Qin Family here and now!"

In the flickering firelight, Dongfang Xu’s arrogant voice echoed.

In the next second, the Flame Child and the Three-Tailed Red Flame Tiger, as if sucked dry of all their flames, became extremely weak in an instant.

All the flames, all the Fire Elements, were entirely focused into the bottle.

The mouth of the bottle slowly tilted, aiming far away towards the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox and the Turbo Ice Beast, and then-

"Boom!!"

When the crack appeared, the fire bottle shattered inch by inch.

The unparalleled firelight nearly engulfed the entire hall.

Qin Quan’s face dramatically changed. He had been planning to sprint forward just now, but abruptly halted and began to retreat desperately.

In his hand was an "Elemental Charm", and a protective Jade Card shone visibly around his neck.

Both the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox and the Turbo Ice Beast switched to defensive postures, using an uprooted iceberg to desperately protect their true forms.

"Hiss—Hiss-"

The sea of fire churned, laughing like a devil.

Visibly, the iceberg melted immediately after forming, disappearing at an even faster pace.

Apart from Ye Hanjun, and a few others, everyone else seemed to have their eyes covered, ears plugged, only swallowing their saliva, desperately trying to calm their horrified hearts.

"Grandfather!"

A faint call, as slight as a mosquito’s buzz.

After a long time, the fire gradually dissipated.

Dongfang Xu was standing properly on the ground. Apart from his ragged clothes and a trace of exhaustion between his brows, there were no apparent injuries.

The Flame Child and the Three-Tailed Red Flame Tiger were guarding him on the left and right.

Although it could be felt that the Fire Elements stored within their bodies were nearly exhausted.

But the fervor of battle still surged within them, their spirits as high as ever.

"Survived by luck, relying on magical tools?"

In front of Dongfang Xu, the Ice Arrow Frozen Fox was exhausted, and the Turbo Ice Beast was almost reduced to a puddle of water.

Qin Quan, who lay limp on the ground, still had a weak breath, but he had lost an arm, and the wound was charred black, without any blood oozing out.

"Let it be. This marks the end of my enmity with the Qin Family."

"If you provoke me again, next time, I will burn your whole clan to the ground, exterminate you utterly without a trace!"

Glancing over, Dongfang Xu turned and left without any hint of nostalgia.

He once again knelt in front of Ye Hanjun, bowing his head and saluting, the triumph in his crimson eyes was palpable.

"Master Han, I did it!"

"I don’t know why, but it seems like the Fire Elements in the air are cheering..."

"Is this what you referred to as ’Transparency of Mind’?"

Ye Hanjun smiled faintly and nodded:

"When the dream you contemplate day and night is fulfilled by your own hands, it will surely contribute to the extension of The Path of Controlling Spirits."

"Congratulations, your future will be even brighter, perhaps one day, you will grow to a height that surprises everyone..."
