Greem ran into a group of Blazefire Spirits when he walked in the direction given by the magical spirit.
Compared to ordinary fire elentium, such humanoid blazefire spirits already possessed elentary intelligence and social traits. They lived on a large black mountain burning with a huge fla and kept all outsiders from getting close.
It seed as if they were guarding sothing there!
Greem secretly got close to the black mountain with flas and silently observed each and every action of these blazefire spirits.
The spirits were truly gigantic creatures. Even the young spawn were three ters tall, while the First and Second Grade spirits easily reached between five and seven ters.
Judging from their appearance, they were humanoid creatures ford of bright yellow flas. They had humanoid bodies, arms, and heads, but everything below their waists was a blurry cloud of fire.
Greem couldn't discern any differentiating sexual characteristics after much observation. Perhaps these elentium creatures had no such thing as sex to begin with.
During the ti he had been observing, most of the blazefire spawns had been playing about on the black mountain, never leaving its boundaries. anwhile, the adolescent blazefire spirits had ford patrol groups and were continually patrolling the surroundings of the black mountain.
Their groups were all composed of six blazefire spirits. The leaders were all Second Grade while the mbers were all First Grade.
Greem could see so beehive-like holes at the top of the mountain from a distance. Those might be their hos. Still, due to the existence of the patrol groups, Greem had no chance to get close to the black mountain or to scout the place.
Everything living in the fire elentium plane was a fire elentium creature of the sa origin. They didn't require food, water, and air like humans did, but they still needed the constant nourishnt of the fire elentium. Most fire creatures living in the fire elentium plane were extrely violent as well. They also hoped to beco stronger as quickly as possible.
For them, a ho was where fire elentium was most concentrated and dense!
Since the blazefire spirits took the black mountain as their ho, then there had to be a powerful fire elentium cluster point in the black mountain. Maybe there were so fire treasures or relics.
Greem hid in the surroundings of the black mountain for quite a while and ultimately made his decision to strike against these blazefire spirits.
Of course, the main factor driving his decision was the discovery of no Third Grade beings among the spirits. Moreover, he badly needed to accumulate combat experience against fire creatures now. Thus, after much pacing about, Greem could no longer hold back. He moved.
There was a sparse patch of forest at the foot of the black mountain.
Several tall, bare fire trees were spread out evenly over a range of thirty miles. These trees had no leaves nor tender branches. The thick stems of the fire trees were only sharp and erect spikes that pointed toward the sky. One could even vaguely see viscous red liquid slowly flowing underneath their dark red bark, much like flowing magma.
The sharp roots of the fire trees were also embedded deeply into the earth, desperately taking in fire energy from the underground fires.
A squad of blazefire spirits silently walked through this forest of fire trees.
There was no day and night cycle in the fire elentium plane. As such, most fire creatures had no concept of ti. They simply executed any mission given by their leader to the best of their abilities. It was only when the fire energy within their bodies had been mostly exhausted that they would return to their dens and recharge.
These spirits could dutifully remain at work for years on end as long as they still had plenty of fire energy within their bodies.
This group's patrol mission was to survey this fire tree forest. They had walked past this fixed route more than tens of thousands of tis and were exceedingly familiar with every fire tree and patch of earth along the way.
Their mission was to chase away low-grade fire elentium that had wandered into the place, as well as to be on alert for attacks from the other surrounding fire creature tribes.
There were not many disagreents or bad blood between the fire creatures of the fire elentium plane. The only reason for conflict was to rob the opponent of their fire elentium cluster point. Thus, the wars between tribes had never ceased!
Today, this group of blazefire spirits once again stepped upon this familiar path, silently making their way through the ghastly and sinister fire trees.
The one walking at the forefront of the group was naturally the leader and the Second Grade blazefire spirit. He was a whole seven ters in height, and a pair of golden flas burned fiercely upon his humanoid head. When he slowly hovered near the fire trees, everything within a one-kiloter radius would fall into his vision without exception.
They had barely made it a quarter of a kiloter into the fire tree forest when a wandering fire elentium entered their security periter another quarter of a kiloter ahead.
It was a beginner fire elental only one ter in height. It only possessed the strength of a beginner apprentice and was obliviously walking between the fire trees, as if it had yet to gain intelligence.
Of course, if it had gained intelligence, it would not have ignored the warning signs that the blazefire spirits had left around the periter.
Seeing that a brat had trespassed into their land, the leader of the group waved his arm and impatiently ordered, "Doug, go deal with it!"
A First Grade blazefire spirit following at the rear of the squad acknowledged the instruction. He then bent down and accelerated forward, charging at the ignorant fire elental in the distance.
With the difference in their power, a single punch from the blazefire spirit would be enough to pulverize the opponent's fire core and cause it to disintegrate completely.
It was only once the First Grade spirit had reached within a hundred ters of it that the beginner fire elental appeared to sense danger. The little thing turned and ran without any hesitation.
"Hm? Does that thing know how to run?" The First Grade blazefire spirit known as Doug couldn't help but be surprised. He hastened the fire cloud on his bottom half, and the speed of his pursuit increased abruptly.
Seventy ters. Fifty ters. Thirty ters. Ten ters.
The distance between the two continued to close until Doug completely caught up with the elental. He then raised his massive fists of fire and smashed them down upon the burning core inside the elental.
"Careful."
The Second Grade blazefire spirit that had been observing from a distance was only half-heartedly watching. However, when his subordinate closed in on the fire elental, he suddenly sensed so abnormal fire elentium flux.
Sadly, his reminder was late!
A seven-ter tall Fla Fiend of Terror suddenly erged from behind a fire tree. It imdiately thrust a lethal attack at the First Grade blazefire spirit upon its entrance.
A giant magma fist smashed downward, crushing the head of the First Grade fire spirit into scattered flas. Before the blazefire spirit could drive his headless body out of range of the Fla Fiend, a massive magma hand had pierced his chest and retrieved the fire core within.
For the fire creatures, all of their fire energy and ntal consciousness ca from this fire core. If it were destroyed or removed from their bodies, the remainder of their fla body would beco wild, unbound fire. It would instantly scatter to the winds.
"Bastard, hurry up and hand over Doug's fire core."
The blazefire spirits in the distance were furious upon witnessing this. They charged over madly under the lead of the Second Grade blazefire spirit.
They had clearly seen that the Fla Fiend of Terror that crushed their companion was a terrifying Second Grade creature. However, they had a Second Grade captain and four First Grade mbers in the group. They weren't at a disadvantage in a fight against this brute.
Sadly, their elentary intelligence couldn't possibly allow them to escape the sches of a Second Grade adept!
By the ti they arrived at the Fla Fiend, their path of retreat had been sealed off by Greem.
The battle lasted only fifteen minutes before ending!
Both parties were fire creatures, and thus, both of them were largely immune to fire damage. However, the fire spirits relied on their numbers to continuously use fire arrows, Firestone Shockwaves, and Ignites to attack the Fla Fiend constantly. That caused the Fla Fiend's Lava Shield's to splash everywhere.
anwhile, the Second Grade blazefire spirit demonstrated unparalleled courage and ferocity. He brandished his fists and engaged the Fla Fiend of Terror in a lee.
One had a body of flas, while the other had the body of a Fla Fiend. One only had Inferno Shields, while the other had the more sturdy Lava Shields. When these two giants bashed and struck at each other with bare fists, the battlefield turned brutal and violent.
Seeing that the Fla Fiend had the absolute advantage in the fight against the Second Grade fire spirit, Greem unhesitatingly struck at the remaining First Grades.
Both parties were using fire spells, but the fla bodies of the First Grade blazefire spirits were not as tough as Greem's Lava Shields. After two or three rounds of exchanging attacks, one of Greem's Lava Shields had been destroyed, while only one of the First Grade fire spirits was left.
The others had been blasted into pieces by the fierce and solid magma fireballs. Even the fire cores within them had lted!
Greem used a Fire Teleportation to appear behind the last surviving First Grade spirit. He then reached with his hand, and a blazing hand ford of pure fire elentium gripped the spirit.
"Let's go! The fire spirits on the mountain seem to have been alerted!"
Greem looked behind him and saw squads of blazefire spirits rushing down the black mountain. He snorted lightly and closed his fist. The First Grade fire spirit was then crushed into pieces by the blazing hand.
When the hand opened up once more, only a fist-sized fire core remained, its surface still burning with small licks of fire.
At this mont, the Fla Fiend of Terror conjured a twenty-ter-long fla whip from thin air and used it to bind the Second Grade spirit, who was desperately trying to escape.
The blades of Coldfla in Greem's hand ravaged toward the immobile fire spirit like an unrelenting storm, slicing off his head and arms. The Fla Fiend of Terror roared and punched through the spirit's chest before he could recover, forcefully pulling out the fire core within him.
