“Which direction?” asked Mu Ningxue immediately.
“You’ll see some bamboo shoot reefs after leaving the safe zone. Head east from there, and you’ll find the reef island!” said Zhao Manyan.
The Magic Winds had used up all his energy. He could no longer fly, and only hoped that the others could make it in time.
The truth was, even flying there would take quite a long time. Mo Fan’s armor was almost destroyed, he would not last for long.
After Zhao Manyan gave her directions, Mu Ningxue immediately summoned a wind to circle her elegant figure, which pushed her straight toward the sea…
She jumped onto the water. The waves under her feet immediately turned into ice for her to sprint on.
The wind surged into the distance as Mu Ningxue sprinted across the surface of the sea. The water her feet made contact with instantly froze, creating a long path of ice across the vast ocean.
Her silver hair drifted in the wind. Her feet were shuffling forward as she was hovering above the ice in the wind, leaving a rug made of ice behind her. The others were dazzled by Mu Ningxue’s control of the Ice and Wind Elements.
The others could not fly, thus they simply followed after Mu Ningxue on the path of ice. Even though it was likely that Mo Fan would be dead by the time they reached the island, they could not afford to give up on the smallest glimpse of hope.

The calm sea continued to undulate with occasional huge waves splashing on the tiny reefs island like a gigantic beast with its mouth wide open.
On the reefs island, Mo Fan was using his mental energy to resist the scarlet tide rolling in his direction. Unfortunately, he still lacked experience using the Space Element. He had no choice but to summon the Departing Nether Shield…
The Departing Nether Shield was effective at blocking a Warrior-level creature’s attack, but that was obviously not the case against the attack of a Commander-level creature. Luckily, the Scarlet Rending Demon had not recovered from the injury inflicted by Ai Jiangtu’s Demon Torture, which greatly weakened the strength of its magic. Otherwise, it could have easily defeated Mo Fan with its ability to control water!
Mo Fan had focused his attacks on the Scarlet Rending Demon’s chest. It was the creature’s most vulnerable point. Its previous injuries and the poison inflicted by the wasps had provided him with a vulnerability.
The scarlet tide rolled in Mo Fan’s direction. The Departing Nether Shield vanished after the strength of the tide surpassed its limit. Mo Fan immediately used little Flame Belle’s Calamity Fire to forcibly overcome the remaining strength of the wave!
“Flame sword!” Mo Fan yelled. Two different kinds of fire combined into a spiral pattern and formed a blazing long sword ten meters long! The flame sword blazed across the sky and flew straight at the Scarlet Rending Demon’s chest.
The Scarlet Rending Demon shoved its claws forward and summoned the waves splashing on the rocks nearby to form a wall to shield itself from the burning slash!
The flame sword’s strength was greatly weakened by the wall. Since fire was weak against water, the effect of his fire sword was below his expectations…
“Lightning Disaster!”
Mo Fan did not stop there. He pointed his finger at the sky, summoning bolts of fierce lightning.
Lightning strikes descended wildly and landed on the Scarlet Rending Demon. The flickering lightning arcs formed a web around the creature and landed repeatedly on the creature’s body.
The armor covering the Scarlet Rending Demon’s chest shattered into pieces, revealing a severely festered wound.
The poison that Zu Jiming had inflicted on the creature was still working, allowing Mo Fan’s fourth-tier Thunderbolt to deal a serious blow to the Scarlet Rending Demon!
More lightning strikes appeared. The Scarlet Rending Demon roared furiously amid the Lightning Disaster. It tried to summon a great wave to devour Mo Fan, yet the lingering effects of Demon Torture prevented it from casting the spell.
It had failed to kill the human when he was all alone. The Scarlet Rending Demon was even madder when it recalled the death of its tribe. It gave up on magic and charged at Mo Fan in an enraged state. It was planning to tear Mo Fan apart with brute force!
“Don’t you assume that I don’t dare to fight you in close combat!” Mo Fan was similarly aggressive.
Mo Fan was granted most of little Flame Belle’s capabilities when he was possessed. It was unwise to underestimate the effect of the Calamity Fire engulfing him!
“Flame sword!” Mo Fan controlled the flames to form a blazing sword once again!
Holding the ten-meter flame sword in both hands, Mo Fan leapt into the air and flung the sword. It slashed at the Scarlet Rending Demon in a full crescent arc!
The flame sword landed on the ground, and heat waves spread rapidly to both sides, using the ravine produced by the slash as their boundary. The whole reef trembled.
The Scarlet Rending Demon was no longer thinking straight. The slash tore its chest open and left a deep scorching mark on it, extending to its abdomen.
After suffering the blow, it insisted to push forward and dig its claws into Mo Fan’s stomach, then tear him in half.
“Piss off!” The flames engulfing Mo Fan blazed and turned into a pair of fiery wings on his back.
The wings spread, unleashing a great force that spread like a ring of fire. The Scarlet Rending Demon was immediately knocked back by the force while it was trying to move closer.
The burning feathers seemed to have their own consciousness. They rapidly sprang at the Scarlet Rending Demon, which was reeling from the blow. Each feather contained an overwhelming amount of energy, which exploded as soon as it made contact with the Scarlet Rending Demon…
More than a thousand fiery feathers detonated on the Scarlet Rending Demon. The creature’s body was bombarded beyond recognition as scales, pieces of singed meat, and blood splattered across the place!
The Thousand Piercing Fiery Feathers was Little Flame Belle’s strongest move. Its effect was even stronger than Mo Fan’s Meteorite Fist: Nine Dragons after stacking it with the effect of Mo Fan’s Rose Flame, totally comparable to an Advanced Spell. Normally, the Scarlet Rending Demon could easily resist the attack, yet without the protection of its scarlet armor, it was vulnerable to Fire Spells!
The Scarlet Rending Demon teetered after being hit by the Thousand Piercing Fiery Feathers. However, it was surprisingly tenacious, still standing after suffering the powerful blow.
“Little Flame Belle, keep it busy for a while, I’m going to kill it once and for all!” Mo Fan’s face was a little pale at the moment.
It was his first time fighting a high-intensity battle with a Commander-level creature. Luckily, he had learned how to utilize little Flame Belle’s powers in the Space of Death. Otherwise, he definitely stood no chance against the injured Scarlet Rending Demon.
Little Flame Belle quickly flew out of Mo Fan’s body, bringing the brown Calamity Fire with her.
Little Flame Belle’s strength was now equivalent to a Warrior-level creature in the Advancing Period. She was only one step away from reaching the Commander-level. She would not have any problem keeping the seriously injured Scarlet Rending Demon at bay.
“Sky-Flame Funeral!”
Mo Fan knew that he had to use a real Advanced Spell if he really wanted to kill the Scarlet Rending Demon. The Sky-Flame Funeral was his only way to kill the creature.
The Star Patterns were completed quickly. Mo Fan was still rusty at casting the Sky-Flame Funeral, yet he had to complete the Star Constellation at a faster pace, to summon the Advanced Fire Spell down from the sky!
He was totally defenseless. If he did not kill the Scarlet Rending Demon soon, his life would be in danger…
