Mo Fan was blazing red from the fire engulfing him. The Black Snake Armor granted him an outstanding defense, and there was a layer of scorching flames around it now. Even the thick branches of the demon tree were unable to harm him.
After obtaining little Flame Belle’s blessing, Mo Fan immediately summoned a long saber made of flames. He raised the flaming weapon when he saw the branches coming in his direction and slashed at them fiercely!
The fiery saber burned one of the branches into ashes, but there were simply too many branches attacking him. His priority was to escape from the pit at once!
“Thousand Piercing Fire Feathers!”
A pair of wings made of burning feathers appeared on his back. As they beat, burning feathers were fired in all directions!
Each of the feathers exploded when they came into contact with the demon tree. The pitch-black hole was entirely lit up by the explosions, which blasted the demon tree into pieces and set the whole place aflame!
The burning feathers flew in all directions continuously. Mo Fan took hold of the chance to fly out of the hole. Mochizuki Chihaya abruptly realized that Mo Fan was still struggling to break free and immediately controlled the demon tree to surround him.
The branches grew rapidly and loomed over Mo Fan’s head like claws, trying to seal Mo Fan inside the hole.
—
“Chihaya, what are you doing? Don’t overdo it!” exclaimed Mochizuki Ken when he realized that something did not seem right.
The massive hole was covered up by the branches of the demon tree. Once it was entirely covered up, it would be extremely difficult for Mo Fan to escape.
Mochizuki Ken did not want to put the life of a Chinese student at risk because of a duel. He quickly rebuked Chihaya when he realized what she was up to.
“The kid is fine!” replied Mochizuki Chihaya.
As soon as she said that, a great burst of light appeared in the hole. Fire sprang out of the hole like exploding rays. The rate of growth of the demon tree was impressive, yet the rate that the flames were burning the plant was even more shocking. The plants were soon burned into ashes.
In the middle of the flying ashes, a figure engulfed in flames dashed out and sprang into the air!
The flames burning on him did not weaken. He turned into a giant fireball sweeping across the air like a meteorite and fell right on Mochizuki Chihaya!
Mochizuki Chihaya had no idea what kind of power Mo Fan was using. She did not expect him to escape the pit and immediately execute such a powerful attack. She quickly backed off, trying to dodge the imperious fireball…
The fireball did not look huge in the air, but when it started falling, Mochizuki Chihaya immediately felt a great pressure. The Water Barriers around her were evaporated by the overwhelming heat!
“Water Curtain!”
Mochizuki Chihaya realized that she was in a pinch. She hastily cast the Water Advanced Spell.
The Water Curtain formed a barrier like a waterfall in front of Mochizuki Chihaya. If she had realized what Mo Fan was up to a bit earlier, the Water Curtain would have absorbed all of the impact.
Unfortunately, Mochizuki Chihaya was still a bit too late. The flames of the blast lunged at her, a portion landing on her as the Water Curtain took shape.
Mochizuki Chihaya was forced to back away from the heat. Her armor had already lost power. She even forgot she was already standing at the edge of the stage…
She glided back and set foot outside of the boundary. The Water Curtain finally blocked the rest of the energy as the fireball collided with it, and could no longer reach her.
Mo Fan skidded on the ground, leaving a burning ravine, shallow at the start and gradually growing deeper at the end.
Half-kneeling on the ground, Mo Fan slowly raised his head. The flames engulfing him slowly dissipated under the effect of the Water Curtain.
He was incredibly surprised when he realized that Mochizuki Chihaya was perfectly unharmed.
-How is she unhurt? Isn’t this woman too strong to be real!-
Mo Fan rose to his feet on the scorched ground, staring at Mochizuki Chihaya with a hard expression.
On the other hand, Mochizuki Chihaya had a blank face too. She looked at her right foot in disbelief. It was currently outside of the boundary.
Although the rules stated that she would only lose the battle if both her feet were outside of the boundary, she had pretty much lost the duel since she was an instructor.
“Your flames…” Mochizuki Chihaya glanced at Mo Fan. Her eyes sharpened, as if she was trying to see through Mo Fan’s secrets.
“Enough talk, let’s continue the duel since we’ve yet to decide who’s the winner!” Mo Fan was too lazy to ask questions. His desire to win was as strong as the flames erupting from his body!
He clenched his fists. Two tongues of fire appeared and spun around Mo Fan in a ten-meter circle. When the flames collided into one another, the circle was set on fire!
As soon as the ground started burning, he could sense the energies of the Fire Element coming toward him from all directions.
The space around him was quickly filled with fiery energy. Mo Fan felt like he had an abundant supply of power, as if he could do anything with the Fire Element as he wished. He could easily summon Fire Bursts and finish channeling Fiery Fists in an instant. Even the complicated Star Constellation of the Sky-Flame Funeral did not seem as difficult!
“What’s happening?” Mo Fan was mesmerized.
The others only saw some strange flames appearing around Mo Fan. There was nothing special about it, apart from making him look imperious. However, Mochizuki Chihaya could sense a great pressure. Her Water Element was completely dominated by the domain of the Fire Element!
Mochizuki Chihaya suddenly did something strange. She pulled her other foot and stepped outside of the boundary. “You win.”
“I haven’t had enough yet…”
“Stop talking, close your eyes and feel the energy around you. You’ve grasped the ability to produce a Domain!” snapped Mochizuki Chihaya.
Mo Fan was startled, before being overwhelmed with joy!
Domain, an overwhelming capability that he kept hearing about from rumors! It was his Fire Domain!
At that instant, Mo Fan quickly tossed aside his insignificant grudge toward Mochizuki Chihaya to the back of his head. He immediately closed his eyes to grasp the Fire Domain around him…
Mo Fan knew that the Domain did not belong to him. It was the effect after he merged with the little Flame Belle!
However, if he could grasp the power of the Domain, it would significantly improve his strength when he was possessed by the little Flame Belle. It was a rare opportunity!
