Burning her divine-grade bloodline allowed Kurumi to cross that barrier successfully. With a slight raise of her right hand, molten lava swiftly gathered at her feet!
A golden spear appeared in her reversed grip.
Huo Ao had no intention of waiting any longer. Even though the Dou Zun from the Gu clan in the sky firmly locked onto him, he couldn't just sit and wait!
His Dou Qi surged within him, and with eyes wide open in anger, Huo Ao's entire body was enveloped in the Eight Desolation Annihilation Flame. Immediately, the pitch-black flames shot forward, forming a massive finger!
"Earth Tier Advanced Dou Technique: Flame Saint Finger!"
Kurumi seized the opportunity, taking two light steps, and with great force, she hurled the spear in her hand, transforming it into a golden stream of light that shot toward Huo Ao.
Huo Ao displayed his trademark sneer, confident that the Flame Saint Finger would crush such a weak Dou Technique to bits!
"Hmm?!"
Just a second before the golden stream collided with the massive black finger, it slightly changed direction, skimming past the giant finger and heading straight for him!
Huo Ao had less than thirty percent of Dou Qi, using two advanced Dou Techniques. The incoming golden spear gave off an aura of intense danger.
'Dodge!'
With a flap of his pitch-black wings, Huo Ao ascended, but the giant finger continued to crash toward Kurumi's position!
Kurumi bent slightly, and the two tiny fire wings that had appeared behind her expanded rapidly! With a twist of her body, the flames of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame left a trail in the air.
Whether flying using her spiritual power or piloting the 'Nightmare,' Kurumi's ability to stay aloft was hundreds of times longer than Huo Ao's!
With her divine-grade bloodline boiling inside her, continuously supplying energy to her body, Kurumi looked at Huo Ao with a very unfriendly expression.
She intended to see how well this Dou Wang could fight in the air!
Taking advantage of the destruction caused by the Flame Saint Finger, Kurumi's figure moved like a ghost, with the golden fire wings carving captivating trails in the air.
A spiritual needle reformed between her brows, and a newly formed flaming spear in her hand shot toward Huo Ao without hesitation!
Flying through the air, Huo Ao's face darkened. Without his strong physique, he wouldn't be able to withstand such twisting and turning attacks.
Seeing the golden spear flying toward him, Huo Ao casually flicked a whip of Eight Desolation Annihilation Flame, aiming to knock it down in one strike.
Huo Ao was deeply frustrated. In novels, weren't the attacks supposed to be grand and earth-shattering? He had reached that level, but this Gu Muer... didn't play by the rules!
Flapping his pitch-black wings, Huo Ao intended to shake off Kurumi using his Dou Wang strength, pulling out a pill from his storage ring and swallowing it.
His face turned grim; today's battle had been utterly humiliating. He was the first to be injured, and he was also the first to take a pill in a fight against a one-star Dou Ling girl!
Even if he suspected Gu Muer was an ancient monster reincarnated, others wouldn't see it that way!
"Whoosh!"
Huo Ao quickly dodged as the golden spear nearly pierced through him!
Gritting his teeth, he had initially intended to play around, but since Gu Muer wasn't being kind, he wouldn't be either!
His remaining divine-grade bloodline boiled, using it as fuel for the Eight Desolation Annihilation Flame, making Huo Ao feel invincible!
"Boom!——"
With a fierce flap of his pitch-black wings, he abruptly halted his high-speed movement, throwing the Eight Desolation Annihilation Flame, which transformed into a black dragon and rapidly encircled Kurumi!
'What's this fool trying to do?'
Kurumi wondered, letting herself fall freely towards the ground.
Huo Ao's eyes flashed with doubt. He urged the fire dragon forward, its huge mouth ready to swallow Kurumi!
Seeing Huo Ao staying defenseless in the air, Kurumi couldn't help but shake her head.
According to the Red Queen's words: 'Fools have their luck, but idiots do not!'
Her spiritual power guided the distant flaming spear, and under the solid spiritual force, the two spears moved twice as fast as before!
Huo Ao's danger senses blared. Being accustomed to fighting on land, he instinctively looked around. When he looked down, he saw Kurumi smiling up at him!
Without hesitation, Huo Ao flapped his wings to escape!
A delicate hand reached out and clenched!
The flaming spears, descending from above and shooting from below, exploded simultaneously!
Seeing Huo Ao enveloped by the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame, Kurumi finally smiled.
She had added something special to those golden spears.
Next... she needed to deal with the flame dragon!
As Kurumi was about to escape, the flame dragon flew toward Huo Ao. Kurumi squinted; although her opponent might have combat experience, he relied on his unique flame and powerful Dou Techniques to crush his enemies.
If this fire dragon kept chasing her, it would be hard to shake off, but now...
"Boom!～"
Kurumi turned her head to see the two Dou Zuns clashing again! The fragile space was torn apart, and the Dou Zuns clashed and separated instantly.
"Yan Clan Dou Zun, it's inappropriate to interfere before the juniors settle their fight."
The red-clad elder snorted. He sensed the Yan Clan's young master wasn't in mortal danger, but the Gu clan's daughter's prowess greatly shocked him.
He knew Huo Ao's strength well. He could even fight a one-star Dou Huang if he went all out.
But now... he was being overpowered by a one-star Dou Ling girl!
Despite the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame's might, the Eight Desolation Annihilation Flame wasn't weak! The Yan Clan Dou Zun found it hard to accept.
As Lin Bai blocked the Yan Clan Dou Zun, Kurumi launched two more flaming spears at Huo Ao, but the black dragon intercepted them.
It seemed Huo Ao needed more strong awareness. Over time, the black dragon roared, staying around its master, passively becoming Kurumi's target.
Feeling the rapidly depleting divine-grade bloodline within her, Kurumi's heart ached. Her gaze at Huo Ao grew cold with a hint of killing intent.
However, as the Yan Clan's young master...
'Since I can't kill him, I'll make his life miserable!'
A drop of golden blood dripped into the blossoming Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame.
Kurumi's aura stabilized further, and the fiery wings behind her expanded instantly! She transformed into a golden arrow, rushing towards Huo Ao!
The black dragon from the Eight Desolation Annihilation Flame opened its mouth, forming black fireballs, continuously shooting at Kurumi.
Kurumi's expression remained unchanged. The spiritual needle between her brows split into three.
The golden spears aimed at Huo Ao were infused with a small amount of divine flame. Once touched, it would cling like a relentless curse, bringing a great surprise to Huo Ao.
"Whoosh!"
A golden stream pierced through the dragon's head. Kurumi seized the moment, darting to the flame-engulfed Huo Ao.
Raising her hands high, the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame erupted furiously!
