Novel Full Chapter 477 Fruit of Effort
Chapter 477 Fruit of Effort
The Core Disciples first looked at Wu Long with puzzled faces, but soon felt a powerful presence nearing the area.
A figure flew above their heads in the distant skies.
“Where is he? … I am sure it is him…”
A familiar to Wu Long voice reached his ears as he saw Do Bishui, an old man he met only twice. Once when he met Old Man Zhao for the first time and another one during the confrontation with Gu Zhen’s subordinates in the Tingren Kingdom.
“If I can only get rid of him… Lord Gu would… hm?”
The man muttered with frustration, until he stopped not far from the crater, something catching his attention.
“This aura… it can’t be… an Earth Flame! Hahaha! What luck! Even if I don’t find that Troublemaker, Lord Gu is going to forgive me all transgressions… no… he is going to reward me! Hahaha!”
The man seemed to have used a detection technique, and then started to almost salivate at the sight of this natural treasure.
“Haa~”
Wu Long sighed as he did not plan on getting into useless confrontations.
‘Well, at least Gu Zhen is going to lose a subordinate. Besides, I don’t need to bother subduing the Earth Flame’
He thought as he motioned the others not to move or otherwise give away their presence, watching the old man fly toward the center of the crater.
The glowing rock in the middle of the crater had a light yellowish green flame ignite on it’s surface, gradually growing in strength.
Scorching heat started rapidly melting ice and snow in the vicinity as the flame grew more and more, forming into the shape of a large burning bamboo shoot.
“Yellow Bamboo Earth Flame! Hahahaha! The 78th on the Earth Flame Rankings!
Who would have thought I would find something so rare and precious in this Heaven-Forsaken Place while looking for that idiot!
I must have been blessed by luck! Hahaha! Truly, he who seeks will find! He who tries will prevail!!! Hahahaha!”
The man became overjoyed at that sight, grabbing his head and shouting in joy with a maniacal laughter and glint in his eyes.
He then grinned, and spread his hands as Pill Flames started growing in them.
“Come here, little one, this old man won’t mistreat you”
The flaming bamboo buzzed, flames swirling around it as it seemed to warn the man to not come any closer, but as soon as Do Bishui crossed the line of the crater, large flaming leaves shot at him, the old man sending out orbs of Pill Flame to accurately intercept the attacks.
The raging fire spread heat far and wide, as the aura of a Seven Profound Realms cultivator and of a powerful Earth Flame discouraged any Demonic Beasts to approach.
Wu Long offset the heat with an additional combination of talismans, blocking out any wind or shockwave as well, so they watched the heated fight filling the skies above the crater full of flames which made for a spectacular sight with relative comfort.
The old man battled the Earth Flame for nearly half an hour, exerting maximum of his abilities.
As he finally put one shackle made of flames around the base of the bamboo, it at last started to give in. Do Bishui did not relent, doubling his efforts while trying to wrap more chains made of flaming characters around the furiously fighting bamboo while evading or blocking its attacks.
“Thousand Fires Binding Seal!!!”
When he put hundreds of chains, rendering the bamboo helpless to retaliate, not minding the fatigue from exerting all of his strength in the fight, he then made a hand seal, screaming at the top of his lungs while galvanizing his Spiritual Qi.
The chains wrapped around into a large sphere which then started shrinking, until it became a small ball the size easily fitting into the palm of a human child’s hand. A “seal” character made out of flames appeared above it and was planted onto the ball, completely shutting off any residual aura of the Earth Flame.
“Haa~… haa~… this damn fire… haa~ but… I foundly got it! Hahahaha!”
Do Bishui heavily breathed, wiping away the drops of sweat on his forehead, finally laughing with joy and feeling of accomplishment, his eyes looking at the ball floating in the distance with a glint.
“Haa~ it turned out to be even more powerful than I imagined… if I have this flame…”
He sighed, a look of greed and ambition appearing in his eyes.
“… I will think of that later… for now… finally… ”
He then shook his head as the thought that came to him before seemed to have spooked him, approaching the sphere and stretching out his hand, when a lightning shone brightly around, causing him to momentarily close his eyes while putting a protective shell around him.
When he close his eyes again, he saw a handsome man with lightning arcs all around him.
“…Y-You?!?!?!”
Do Bishui’s eyes widened with shock, and then hatred. .
“That’s mine!!! Give it back!”
His eyes then lowered, seeing the sphere he so painstakingly sealed the Earth Flame into in Wu Long’s hands.
“Yours? Hmm… I don’t really see your name anywhere on it…, perhaps… is your name ‘Seal’?”
Wu Long raised the orb in his hands, turning it around and checking any signs of belonging.
“You clearly know it’s mine! You-… Haa~, but… it doesn’t matter… hahaha! I will get it back anyway. Only now I will also have your head to bring back as a souvenir!
Quite foolish of you to have come out! I was going to quit searching for you if I didn’t find you, since I already found something to please Lord Gu with…”
Do Bishui first flared with anger, but then he sighed, seemingly calming down as a malicious grin appeared on his face.
“Please? Don’t you mean overturn him with the help of it?”
Wu Long chuckled, as fear flashed in the man’s eyes for a moment, but disappearing in the next moment as a confident look reappeared in them.
“Hahaha! Quite good, trying to intimidate me. But who is going to tell him? You? Hahahaha!”
The old man laughed with an increasingly improving mood.
