CHAPTER 1825 SCORCH SUN DOMAIN
Childe Wildlife's Dao Skill was simply stunning to all those that watched it.
Lin Mu who had his Immortal sense inside the Spatial Plane could feel it even better.
'Even I'll have to take this attack seriously… might even be forced to use the Spatial Skills.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
The fire continued to rain down from the sun and covered the land. Feng Baxing had to focus on defending for the time being and continued to swing his Shearing Hurricane Fan.
The Shearing Hurricane Fan created jets of wind that spread out from Feng Baxing's body, pushing all the fireballs away. The barrier on the other hand was unable to withstand the fireballs as the heat was simply pushing the wind away.
Feng Baxing was surprisingly forced to retreat while using the Peak Grade immortal weapon.
Lin Mu who was observing him though found something strange.
'He… can't use the Fan properly?' Lin Mu could sense the Immortal Qi fluctuations from the fan and found them to be a bit erratic.
The people in the audience couldn't tell this due to being separated, but Lin Mu could still pick up on it. Though the Dao Traces that covered the fan also made it hard to tell.
Only those that were versed in the Wind Dao would be able to tell what was actually happening to the Shearing Hurricane Fan.
'It's almost as if… The Shearing Hurricane Fan's abilities are restricted.' Lin Mu realized though he couldn't tell why.
He thought of the words of the audience and quickly thought of something.
'Wait… they said the Shearing Hurricane Fan was kept in the treasury of the Imperial Family… if Feng Baxing took it only recently, it is possible that the spirit of the Shearing Hurricane Fan hasn't fully accepted him yet!' Lin Mu analyzed.
If it really was as Lin Mu had though, it would be the same as unrevealing another weakness for Feng Baxing.
It also made sense as to why he hadn't used the fan before this. All the opponents that he had met were far too weak to warrant its use. It even made Lin Mu wonder if there were additional limitations to it.
'Even for the Imperial Family, Peak grade immortal weapons aren't something that can be easily obtained. If the Emperor has given it to Feng Baxing, there might have been other conditions that he put forth.' Lin Mu pondered before his mind went to the words of the Crown Prince Feng Shun.
'Considering that he's the Crown Prince, the Emperor definitely favors him. Thus it wouldn't make sense as to why he wasn't given the Fan.
Is the Shearing Hurricane Fan the true reason why the Crown Prince is forgetting the Third Prince?' Lin Mu was starting to look deeper into the conflict.
Things were starting to make sense now.
"Perhaps the emperor put a limit of usage on it… The Third Prince might only be able to utilize it a few times before it is unusable by him." Lin Mu muttered to himself.
"Huh? Did you say something, Brother Mu Lin?" Luo Liqin asked.
"Nothing…. Just talking to myself." Lin Mu shook his head.
"I see…" Luo Liqin turned his attention back to the fight while Lin Mu continued to think further.
The match had been running for about ten minutes now and Feng Baxing seem to be on the defensive.
Childe Wildlife had turned the entire battlefield into a sea of fire by now. Not just that, but the ground directly underneath him had already melted and turned into a lava lake.
And this lava lake only continued to expand in size as the red sun burned in the sky.
This forced Feng Baxing to stay in the air, as landing on the ground would put further stress on his defenses. But even this didn't last long, as the Sun continued to grow bit by bit.
The larger it grew the more the temperature of the Spatial Plane rose. The air had become superheated, and the average temperature of the area exceeded a hundred Celsius!
This was massive considering the full size of the Spatial plane which that they could last that long in this.
And one must not forget that there wasn't just damage due to the was over tens of kilometers in area.
And this was just the average temperature, if one got close to where Childe Wildlife and the Sun was, they would find the temperatures touching upon a thousand Celsius!
It was a temperature that would threaten the lives of the immortals too and wasn't something most immortals would be able to survive in for long.
Even with their defensive skills and tools, there was no guarantee that they could last that long in this.
And one must not forget that there wasn't just damage due to the high temperatures, there was also the presence of Fire Dao Traces as well as violent Fire Elemental Qi mixed in all this!
An immortal would not only need defense against pure heat, but also from the Fire Elemental Qi. This was something most immortals would be able to put up with up to a certain extent.
But when the Fire Dao Traces were added to it due to the Dao Skills, most immortals would be unable to do the same.
Perhaps only those that were resistant to this could manage to defend themselves for long.
'One would need a Water Dao skill, or have an affinity with the Fire Dao to be able to last long in this.' Lin Mu reckoned. 'But even those with an affinity with fire would have to keep on retreating. After all, these are Scorching Sun Flames…' he thought before switching his attention to Childes Wildfire.
There Lin Mu saw that the man was actually suffering too.
There were burn marks on his fingers while parts of his robes were starting to get burned too. Lin Mu saw faint Runes appearing on the robes, trying to resist the Scorching Sun Flames.
"Those robes might not long last…" Lin Mu realized that this was how Childe Wildfire was managing to use the Dao Skill.
The Robes that he was using were different than his previous robes and Lin Mu reckoned they were defensive Immortal robes.
Normally they should have been able to last for a long time against fire, years even, and be able to repair themselves naturally.
But now, these robes were getting damaged past the point of no return. Lin Mu witnessed the runes breaking down one by one, as the Formations started to get weaker and weaker.
The fibers of the robe were burning and a few minutes later, the sleeves were already gone.
Feng Baxing who had an irritated look on his face all this time noticed the change in Childe Wildfire
"So you're using this despite the injuries… Let's see how long you can keep up!" the prince smirked before raising the Shearing Hurricane Fan up high.
A strong wave of Immortal Qi burst out from the fan, and transformed into a corporeal form.
At first, it looked to have no shape, but as Feng Baxing continued to pour more and more Immortal Qi into it, it started to change.
"What is he doing?" The audience was confused.
"Is that a skill?"
"It's definitely a Qi skill of some kind." They reckoned.
But as they continued to watch, their eyes went wide at the scene. The shapeless Immortal Qi had taken on the form of a large beast that looked like a bird of some kind.
The bird raised its head and let out a loud cry that shook the battlefield.
"Heavens! What beast is that!?" They were astounded.
"That… That… That's the Great Hurricane Falcon!" Someone finally spoke.
Lin Mu who watched it narrowed his eyes as he didn't know what exactly was happening.
"Oh?" To further Lin Mu's surprise Xukong seemed to have awakened as well. "To think he could manifest the spirit."
"That… is the manifestation of the Immortal Weapon's Spirit?" Lin Mu asked in surprise. Content © 2024.
"Indeed," Xukong confirmed.
Lin Mu knew that when Immortal Weapons reached the peak grade, their spirits could take on a material form. Though this was something that took a long time and a lot of resources to do so.
This wasn't the first time Lin Mu was seeing such a spirit manifestation either though.
Back in the Deep Sapphire City, Lin Mu had met Lan Bao. She was also a spirit that had taken on the form of a Mermaid.
Though compared to the Spirit that Feng Baxing had manifested, she was leagues above.
"Now, let's see if you can stand against this!" Feng Baxing shouted before commanding the spirit.
The Weapon Spirit let out a loud cry before charging towards Childe Wildlife.
Being the weapon spirit the Great Hurricane Falcon had all the powers of the Shearing Hurricane Fan. In fact, the spirit could use the powers of the fan several times better than what Feng Baxing could do so.
And it was demonstrated soon enough, when the spirit charged through the sea of flames, splitting it apart!
