Chapter 354: Dharma Idol Battles the Fire Demons!

Everyone stared at the strange gray substance, completely at a loss.

“When did such a thing appear inside the Demonic Fire Secret Realm?”

“Not sure, I remember it wasn’t here before.”

The Supreme Elder gazed at the strange substance, falling into deep thought without speaking for a long while.

If Gu Fan had been here, he would have been utterly shocked—this substance was none other than the Mysterious Power cultivated within the Void Sacred Realm.

However, after the explosion of the Cultivation Nuclear Bomb, the Mysterious Power seemed to undergo a strange transformation with Spiritual Power, causing it to appear inside the Demonic Fire Secret Realm, obstructing the repair of the passage.

A moment later, the Supreme Elder waved his hand and forcibly drew the substance back into his palm before saying:

“There’s a great deal of this material inside. We can only repair it slowly. I will restore half of it first, then resume the repair of the remaining half after replenishing my Spiritual Power.”

The four elders could only agree.

Meanwhile, inside the Demonic Fire Secret Realm.

Gu Fan was panting heavily, while beside him Fang Xue also appeared slightly exhausted.

The two of them stared intently at the three Fire Demons not far away.

“What now? We risked everything to kill two, yet now we’re surrounded by three more…”

“Hehe, I’m afraid it’s not just these three. This is only the first wave. At least a dozen more Fire Demons are rushing over…”

Gu Fan spoke helplessly.

At that moment, the Fire Demons unleashed countless flaming dragons once again, raging wildly toward the two of them.

Fang Xue forced herself to rally her spirit, let out a cold shout, and waved her jade hand, sending out streams of blue icy sword energy that clashed head-on with the fiery dragons.

The collision triggered a violent shockwave; ice and fire met, exploding and giving birth to countless clouds of steam.

In order to clear their vision as quickly as possible, Gu Fan immediately followed up, pressing his palms together and striking forward!

At once, it was as though a giant fan had swept down—the steam was instantly blown away.

Revealing the three Fire Demons charging toward them at even greater speed!

Gu Fan let out a long roar, venting all the frustration in his heart.

This period had been suffocating—relentlessly hunted by a horde of Fire Demons.

He and Fang Xue had been fleeing frantically all the way!

Although he clearly had the means to wipe them all out, he had no way of using it.

It was just like fighting an opponent with both hands tied.

The Demonic Fire Secret Realm was sect property. Unless absolutely necessary, he truly didn’t want to destroy it so easily.

But at this rate, both he and Fang Xue would perish here, so he could no longer afford to hold back!

“I’ll stall two! You kill one quickly!”

Gu Fan roared, then charged straight ahead.

As he strode forward, Gu Fan unleashed his full power.

The Domain Suppression of Myriad Phenomena, the Green Lotus Phenomenon, the Domain Force, and even a Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram simultaneously blessed his body!

At the same time, without hesitation, Gu Fan crushed a Storage Pouch. All the Fire Yuan Crystals inside were instantly inhaled into his body.

Scorching heat and terrifying flames burst from his mouth, nose, and pores!

The next moment, he swung his fist.

Behind him, a phantom Dharma Idol appeared, also a hundred meters tall, mimicking his movement as it struck a Fire Demon with a mighty punch.

Boom!

Caught off guard, the Fire Demon was struck so hard that half its body was shattered!

Another Fire Demon bellowed angrily upon seeing this.

It immediately lunged at the Dharma Idol phantom behind Gu Fan!

“Kill!”

The Dharma Idol erupted with golden radiance, clashing furiously against the Fire Demon.

It grabbed both of the Fire Demon’s arms and tore violently.

Rip!

Squelch!

The Fire Demon screamed as its arms were ripped off alive.

At this moment, the Fire Demon whose half-body had been smashed had already restored itself to peak condition with the aid of fiery energy.

Seeing Gu Fan about to tear apart one of its kind, it strode forward to provide support!

Boom!

With a full-force punch, the Fire Demon shattered Gu Fan’s Dharma Idol.

Pfft!

Gu Fan coughed up blood and staggered back—facing two Fire Demons at once was truly difficult.

As his Dharma Idol collapsed, the two Fire Demons sneered mockingly with human-like expressions.

Gu Fan sighed and said:

“I had intended to hold back a trump card, but it seems you beasts really are courting death!”

With that, Gu Fan let out a deep roar.

The sixth layer of the Domain Suppression of Myriad Phenomena circulated!

At the same time, a colossal golden shadow appeared.

Gu Fan’s Giant Elephant Dharma Idol condensed into form—it was a golden giant elephant a hundred meters tall!

It walked upon the clouds, shaking the void itself, as though the heavens and earth trembled beneath its might.

Its body was majestic, strength boundless, and its eyes seemed to pierce through all illusions of the world.

On the other side, even Fang Xue, locked in combat, was stunned.

This was clearly different from Gu Fan’s natal Dharma Idol just now. This was obviously a Dharma Idol manifested only when a cultivation technique reached a certain stage of mastery!

Its aura was far more powerful!

Across from them, the two Fire Demons the size of mountains roared furiously.

They too sensed danger—their entire bodies flared with blazing flames, as though the sun had fallen to earth!

Clearly, they were gathering strength for an explosive strike!

The next moment, the Fire Demons’ eyes shot out scorching beams, charging toward Gu Fan’s golden giant elephant!

Another opened its massive jaws, spitting out tongues of blazing fire that shot directly toward his face!

“Haha! Excellent! Merely two Fire Demons—today I shall slay you both!”

Boom!

Gu Fan’s golden giant elephant did not dodge—it advanced head-on.

Two immense forces collided midair, unleashing earth-shaking thunderous booms.

Blazing flames and golden Dharma energy intertwined, painting a magnificent spectacle.

The terrifying impact lit up the sky with fiery clouds.

Only the overwhelming shockwaves continued to ripple outward.

Fang Xue drew a sharp breath.

So this was Gu Fan’s full power?

He could actually contend equally with two Fire Demons!

His terrifying strength once again shattered her understanding of him.

At this moment, Gu Fan commanded the giant elephant to swing its massive trunk, like striking down a furious dragon, smashing the fiery tongues one after another.

The Fire Demon roared violently, its flames surging wildly. It suddenly leaped high, like a meteor crashing down toward the giant elephant.

Rumble!

A deafening explosion erupted.

The next instant, the giant elephant let out a resounding cry.

It stepped forward and lashed its trunk fiercely, slamming the airborne Fire Demon.

The blow sent the Fire Demon tumbling through the air, retreating hundreds of meters under the thunderous strike.

Taking the chance, the giant elephant inhaled sharply, absorbing the scattered flames into its body, then spat them out in a golden pillar of fire that instantly engulfed the Fire Demon.

The Fire Demon writhed in agony within the golden flames.

Although it was born of fiery energy, it was now being burned and tormented by the golden flames of the giant elephant Dharma Idol!

But just then, the sound of the earth trembling came from the distance once more.

Gu Fan swept his Divine Sense outward, and his face instantly changed.

“Fang Xue, prepare to retreat! Thirteen more Fire Demons are coming!”

Hearing this, Fang Xue immediately disengaged from her fight and moved swiftly to Gu Fan’s side.

“Thirteen? What do we do now?”

Gu Fan could only shake his head helplessly. If things had continued, he could have at least slain one more Fire Demon.

But with reinforcements arriving, he could only consider retreat…
