Chapter 165 The Threat of Giant Flames and Perilous Situations
Inside the stone house, the giant, formed from black flames, stood as majestic as a mountain. Each step it took caused the entire house to tremble, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the ground. The black flames around the giant danced wildly, like countless ferocious demonic tongues licking the surrounding air with a whooshing sound. The intense heat distorted and warped the space itself, blurring everyone's vision.
Huanmo gazed at the colossal fire giant, a powerful sense of oppression rising within him. He knew this was an unprecedented crisis. "Everyone be careful! This fire giant is no easy opponent; we must give it our all!" he shouted, his voice resolute, yet a hint of worry lingered in his heart. The wounds on his shoulders and back throbbed with excruciating pain, each breath accompanied by a sharp agony, but he endured it, focusing all his attention on the impending crisis.
Wanru watched the fire giant approach step by step, her heart filled with fear. "Huanmo, what... what should we do?" Her voice trembled slightly, and she gripped the jade flute in her hand even tighter with tension. She knew that in the face of this powerful enemy, the slightest carelessness would mean their annihilation. However, looking at Huanmo's resolute back, a surge of courage welled up within her, and she secretly vowed to face this together with everyone.
Ling'er was already terrified and at a loss for what to do. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried her best not to cry out loud. "Brother Huanmo, I...I'm so scared." She hugged the book tightly, her body trembling uncontrollably, like a leaf in the cold wind. She knew she couldn't be a burden to everyone, so she tried to concentrate and draw more strength from the book.
The woman in white frowned, her eyes filled with solemnity and contemplation. As she gently stroked her zither, she said, "This fire giant seems powerful, but it must have weaknesses. We need to observe calmly and find its flaws in order to defeat it in one strike." Her music was melodious yet carried a hint of heaviness, and waves of spiritual energy spread out like ripples, attempting to detect the fire giant's spiritual energy fluctuations.
The fire giant slowly raised its massive arm, which resembled a burning pillar, and slammed down upon the group. Huanmo shouted, "Scatter!" The group quickly dodged in different directions. The fiery arm crashed into the stone pillar with a deafening roar, causing the pillar to shake violently and develop deep cracks on its surface.
"The stone pillar can't hold on much longer!" Wanru shouted anxiously.
Huanmo looked at the crumbling stone pillar and knew that once it collapsed, they would lose their last support. "Everyone, hold on! Try to protect the pillar!" he shouted, swinging his sword at the fire giant's arm. The blade struck the flames, sending sparks flying, but it only briefly disrupted the fire giant.
The woman in white played the guqin, the music transforming into waves of spiritual energy that struck the fire giant's legs, attempting to slow its movement. "Huanmo, this fire giant's spiritual energy is too powerful; ordinary attacks are not very effective against it."
Huanmo gritted his teeth and said, "We can't give up. We must continue searching for its weaknesses. Ling'er, do you see if there's any solution in the scroll?"
Ling'er sobbed as she quickly flipped through the pages. "I...I'm looking for Brother Huanmo." Her fingers flew across the pages, her eyes filled with anxiety and anticipation.
Wanru played her jade flute, and spiritual energy blades rained down on the fire giant's eyes, attempting to disrupt its vision. "Huanmo, this attack doesn't seem to be working; we need to try something else."
Just then, Ling'er suddenly exclaimed, "Brother Huanmo, I found it! The scroll says that for powerful spiritual flames, you can try to purify them with pure spiritual light."
Huanmo's heart stirred, and he said, "Listen up, everyone. Let's concentrate our pure spiritual power and try to purify this fire giant. Wanru, the girl in white, you assist me with your spiritual power. Ling'er, you are responsible for maintaining the purity of the spiritual light."
Everyone quickly acted according to Huanmo's instructions. Huanmo gathered all his spiritual power into his sword, attempting to condense a pure beam of spiritual light; Wanru played her jade flute, channeling spiritual power into Huanmo's sword; the woman in white played the guqin, the music transforming into waves of spiritual energy that surrounded Huanmo, enhancing his power. Ling'er released the spiritual power from the scroll, forming a pure spiritual barrier to ensure the surrounding spiritual energy remained undisturbed.
However, just as they were about to gather pure spiritual energy, the fire giant seemed to sense their intentions. It roared and spewed out a massive jet of black flame that swept towards them.
In this critical moment, can the group successfully gather pure spiritual energy to purify the fire giant? Will the mysterious being unleash even more terrifying methods at this crucial moment? Can they protect the stone pillar, continue to unravel the secrets of the black vortex, and escape this desperate situation? Everything is fraught with unknowns and dangers; everyone's fate hangs by a thread…
