Commanding Wind and Cloud

Chapter 330: Big Watermelon? No! Giant Fire Berserk Cactus

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A bunch of sand was being sent into the sky as an ear-piercing scream resonated on the open desert.

“Earthquake? No, Demon Beast!” As soon as Qian Jin felt the sand under him moving, the warrior power inside of him instantly reached the peak as he grabbed onto Fanta Kunge who was the closest to him and threw him away.

Duren Burg dashed rapidly on the sand like a poisonous snake dashing in the water, he instantly got out of the zone. Cech Flet was already on the outskirts of the zone, so he easily able get out of it.

The movement of the sand was quick, but Lucifer Lucy was even faster. Despite the fact that there was a ton of sand shooting up at her, Lucy was able to quickly adjust her position in the air using her wings to dodge.

Level 10 Energy Core! The Energy Core that had a gold color was a level 10 Energy Core!

“Got it.” Lucy pinched her fingers around it, but the joyful expression only stood on her face for one-tenth of a second. Surprise! It seemed like this Energy Core was embedded into something.

The sand was moving to the sides and Qian Jin got closer and closer to Lucifer Lucy. At the same time, he was able to see what was under them. Fire Berserk Cactus! That’s right. This was a huge Fire Berserk Cactus! It was a lot bigger than the one he saw before.

Level 10 Energy Core was embedded into the forehead of this beast! A series of streams of sand suddenly appeared and coiled around her legs, arms, and waist like snakes and quickly moved towards her mouth, nose, and eyes. It seemed like this beast wanted to fill her up with sand.

As soon as the sand coiled around her body, it was as hard as steel. The huge amount of pain interrupted Lucifer Lucy’s concentration on using her Demon Eye of Destruction.

“Damn!” She stared at Qian Jin. When she had both of her eyes, she was able to use them whenever she wanted without the need of concentrating and casting it. Now, there were some casting delays with her eye.

“Open!”

Zhanmadao turned into a flash as Bloody Combat Seven Strikes cut through the connecting sand instantly.

Qian Jin wrapped his arm around Lucifer Lucy’s waist as he chopped down at the sand as he whispered to Lucifer Lucy with a quiet, “Don’t be greedy.”

Lucifer Lucy, on the other hand, looked up at Qian Jin and said, “That’s a level 10 Energy Core. If I can absorb all the energy in it, then I would be able to quickly condense and create my Warrior Heart. By then, I can ride on top of you…”

The Giant Fire Berserk Cactus let out a terrifying roar as hundreds of cactus spikes were shot out. Qian Jin who had Lucy in his arms dodged as he kept on running.

Suddenly, the sky above Qian Jin darkened. The Giant Fire Berserk Cactus punched downwards with its huge fist.

Before the fist hit Qian Jin, the wind created by the strike had already created enough force to make the sand around Qian Jin to go wild. Qian Jin felt like he was inside a tornado.

“Damn it! Innumerable Shadow!”

The muscles in Qian Jin’s legs vibrated rapidly under the empowerment of his warrior power. A huge booming noise occurred at the place where they were standing at and Qian Jin felt a thrust coming from the sand below him as if he was surfing over an ocean wave.

The sand wave got as high as ten meters and covered the sky above Qian Jin.

A dash of a beam of black light suddenly appeared as it pierced through the sand and pierced into the body of the cactus. A huge hole was created in the body of this Demon Beast and green liquid started to spurt out of its body. But in the blink of an eye, the wound healed and only looked black as if it was burnt.

It wasn’t the Fire Berserk Cactus’ self-healing ability, it was the high heat from the beam of black light that sealed the wound by burning it dry.

Demon Eye of Destruction! Cech Felt ran away fast as his wing fluttered to help him adjust his position in the air and tried to dodge the fire spikes being shot out by the cactus.

Although Fire Berserk Cactus was a fire-element plant-form Demon Beast, it was still injured by the Demon Eye of Destruction.

Duren Burg, on the other hand, was mad at the new ability he acquired as he dodged the attack from the cactus. His new bloodline ability was poison.

To humans, demons, and animal-form Demon Beasts, the poison of the Sandworm King was very effective, but to plants? Duren Burg was disappointed. He told himself that he would consider the fact that he would find the rare plant-form Demon Beasts in his next awakening.

Puff!

Qian Jin turned around and chopped down at the cactus’ striking fist with his Zhanmadao. The collision between the metal and the thick skin created a metal colliding sound first, then the blade cut into the fist. However, the strong impulse from the collision made Qian Jin slide back in the sand.

At the moment that a fire spike flew at Qian Jin’s face, another beam of black fire instantly melted this spike and then stabbed into the body of the Fire Berserk Cactus.

Then, Qian Jin finally got a good look at the Fire Berserk Cactus that was in the sand. There was a reason why it didn’t shoot out more of its most powerful spikes.

This cactus that was more than 15 meters tall didn’t have any more spikes on it, it looked like a smooth giant carrot.

No spikes! Qian Jin finally knew why those smaller cactuses weren’t willing to leave, they were here to protect this giant cactus.

Although Qian Jin didn’t know why it was here, he knew this giant cactus needed the Jiuyang Flame Iron.

“Evolve?” Qian Jin thought. If this huge cactus divided itself into many smaller cactuses and shoot spikes at them, they would be killed instantly.

However, this cactus didn’t want to divide itself like other plant-form Demon Beasts that didn’t have too much intelligence.

There was only one explanation, it couldn’t self-divide!

No more spikes, couldn’t self-divide… Qian Jin wasn’t sure if this cactus was undergoing the evolution that Fire Berserk Cactus was never known for, but he knew that this huge cactus that looked like a huge fruit was at its weakest form.

Otherwise, there was no way that it wouldn’t deal as much damage as the 10-meter tall cactus formed by all the small cactuses not long ago.

After two beams of light from Demon Eyes of Destruction hit the cactus, two complete holes that had diameters of 10 centimeters appeared on its body. However, since both strikes didn’t hit the magic core in its body, it wasn’t defeated and it got even more aggressive.

This huge cactus was different from other smaller cactus. The location of its magic core wasn’t in the usual spot.

Howl!

The huge Fire Berserk Cactus roared, and fire suddenly appeared and covered the area within a 50-meter radius.

The appearance of the fire forced the warriors to back off and avoid this sea of fire. This time, the Fire Berserk Cactus attacked Qian Jin again and didn’t even bother to attack the other two Fallen Angel Bloodline Warriors who injured it with the Demon Eye of Destruction.

The fist that was as thick as a bull smashed towards Qian Jin with fire covering the entire arm. The fire on the ground seemed to be pulled by something and burnt toward Qian Jin. Instantly, a huge fire in the shape of a tornado that was more than 30 meters tall was created.

Fire Berserk Cactus’ Born-Magic Spell – Fire Tornado.

The fire quickly contracted and looked like a huge pillar that was supporting the sky had fallen It smashed towards Qian Jin with a devastating force.

The flaming fire instantly burnt through all the oxygen in the area and formed a stable “jail cell”. At this time, the cactus was sure the lack of oxygen would affect its opponent greatly and it would be able to punch this man to death and get back the important hot metal.

It was because of this metal that more than 500 Fire Berserk Cactuses were able to come together and form this special cactus. This cactus was sure that it would be able to evolve into the first high-level Fire Berserk Cactus after absorbing the heat energy from that metal a bit longer.

“Get it back! Kill this damn thief and get it back!” This was the only thing in the cactus’ mind.

“Level 4 Demon Slayer? No! Close to level 5 Demon Slayer.” Pam Honzi’s turned his wrist as he eyes pierced through the fire tornado and stared at Qian Jin who was in it. He was even thinking about how to show himself and deal with this Demon Beast that had the strength of a level 5 Demon Slayer.

Qian Jin stood in the center of the fire tornado and sensed the depleting oxygen. His Warrior Heart sucked in the only bit of remaining oxygen in the air as his 108 energy reservoirs unleashed his warrior power that was cycling at 30,000 turns per second.

“Not enough, not enough! My current power is not enough to deal with it” Qian Jin thought as he rooted his feet into the sand. He knew that if he wanted to punch through the fire tornado and escape, he would be chased, and if he stayed and blocked this attack, more attacks would appear like waves in the ocean.

The fire tornado didn’t stop contracting. In a few seconds, everywhere except where Qian Jin was standing was filled with burning fire. On top of that, the heat was trying to penetrate through Qian Jin’s pores and destroy his body.

“Doesn’t seem like Qian Jin can make it.” Pam Honzi thought as the warrior power in his body was about to move. However, his Eye of Innumerable Detection lit up as he murmured to himself, “What is that?”

The Forge Breathing Technique that was asleep in Qian Jin’s body woke up. The 108 dead reservoirs were stimulated under the high heat. At that instant, 108 dead reservoirs sucked in a ton of heat energy around Qian Jin like a whale in the ocean and then the energy was transferred into 108 live reservoirs.
