The Fla Kirin's eyes flickered with fire as it slightly shook its massive head, "So it was, all because of that useless fellow."
Forst Herald, staggering to the Fla Kirin's side, cried out indignantly, "Hey, you two are actually having a chat here. Hurry up and kill this dimwit!"
Ethan, gasping for breath, continued to buy ti, "So it seems, to defeat you, one must wield a fla even stronger than yours."
"Exactly," the Fla Kirin responded succinctly.
"Why is that?" Ethan was genuinely puzzled, seeking an answer while also trying to extend their conversation.
The Fla Kirin, observing Ethan's weakened state, knew that it wouldn't even need to strike.
Ethan would crumble like a porcelain doll, his body breaking apart piece by piece.
Perhaps it had been a long ti since the Fla Kirin had spoken to anyone, for it seed willing to elaborate.
"This is the world of the deities, where hierarchies are strict. The inherent Elental Cycle has been completely obliterated."
"Elental Cycle?" Ethan furrowed his brow slightly.
The Fla Kirin blinked its fiery eyes, "Essentially, Hydro counters Pyro, Pyro counters Dendro... such predetermined laws of nature."
"I see," Ethan nodded slightly, "So the battles between deities are more about strength?"
"Strength is too broad a term. It's more about the depth of one's mastery over the Power of Rules. A deity who comprehends more of the Power of Rules possesses overwhelming strength," the Fla Kirin explained, sounding like an ancient deity ntor guiding Ethan, a lost soul.
"So you're saying, if I had a higher tier of fla, I could defeat you?" Ethan's eyes swirled, testing the waters with his question.
The Fla Kirin looked down upon Ethan, a hint of mockery in its gaze.
Its mouth, hot enough to be asured in thousands of degrees, uttered words chilling to the bone: "Nice thinking, but what a pity... Your fla is too inferior; it stands no chance in killing ."
Forst Herald spoke disdainfully, "A re ant, how high-grade of a fla can it possibly possess?"
Ethan's eyes lit up slightly, "Is the Fla of Faith considered high-grade?"
Forst Herald burst into loud laughter, shaking its head back and forth in the air as if it had just heard the most preposterous thing, "Fla of Faith? Have you lost your mind? If you possessed that kind of fla, you could beco a god."
Desire flickered in the Fla Kirin's eyes as it looked up at the sky, speaking softly, "That kind of fla, although it is the lowest tier, is sothing I wish to possess…"
Ethan narrowed his eyes slightly, summoning Aneropo with an unstoppable smile on his face, "Sorry to disappoint, but I have the Fla of Faith."
The voices of Fla Kirin and Forst Herald abruptly stopped, their gazes simultaneously shifting to the fireball by Ethan's side, distinctively different from the surrounding flas.
Aneropo's fireball, radiating an unparalleled holy aura, was red-gold in color, with murmurs of prayers and supplications from believers mingling within…
This fireball was too conspicuous. As a master of fire, the Fla Kirin naturally noticed it.
The Fla Kirin's pupils constricted in sudden fear, roaring, "How could you possess the Fla of Faith? That is the power of a deity…"
Ethan stood up, his lips curving slightly, "Don't get wrong, I don't possess it."
Forst Herald, scared enough to almost jump up, pointed its robust serpent tail at the fireball in a panic, exclaiming, "Then where did this co from?"
Ethan bowed slightly toward the two massive beasts, speaking with gentlemanly grace, "Allow to introduce everyone, my deity servant—Aneropo."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Aneropo materialized from the fireball.
Due to the lack of Power of Faith, his form was not solid, emanating an ethereal feeling.
"Master, your servant Aneropo is at your service." Aneropo bowed slightly, his refined voice echoing throughout the entire valley.
Even the Fla Kirin, which had forgotten to flee, had its flas flickering rapidly in its eyes.
Shock had rendered it speechless.
This weak, almost dying insect actually had a deity... a deity servant?
The Fla Kirin took a step back, retreat already in its mind.
Ethan's eyes flickered with intense fury as he lifted his spear once again, "Aneropo, coat my spear with a layer of the Fla of Faith."
"My master," Aneropo swung his arm, and a layer of golden-red flas enveloped Ethan's spear, "The Fla of Faith has been applied."
Ethan pointed his spear at the Fla Kirin, a mocking smile on his face, "Fla Kirin, thanks for sharing so many secrets with ."
Seeing the flas on the Blasphemous Spear, the Fla Kirin was utterly terrified, its soul nearly departing from its body, "Who are you exactly? Are you a son of god from the divine realms? Why else would you have a deity servant?"
Ethan, however, was not about to give the Fla Kirin any chance to delay, "You don't need to know anymore. Die. I really want to see what kind of monster you are."
He gripped the spear tightly, golden wings unfurling behind him, as he sped towards the Fla Kirin.
The Fla Kirin's strength lay in its power and flas, but it had no advantage in terms of speed.
The tables had turned; Ethan was now chasing the Fla Kirin to kill it, just as he had done with Forst Herald.
Forst Herald, having fled early on, was once again caught up by Ethan.
Watching the Fla Kirin being pushed back, its fiery scales scattering and sparks flying everywhere, it couldn't help but bitterly think: "Where in the world did this man co from? His strength is formidable, cunning as a fox, and most importantly, he has a deity servant by his side..."
"It seems our good days are coming to an end."
A hint of pain flashed in Forst Herald's eyes; it truly did not want to return to those dark, sunless days.
The Fla Kirin, cornered and furious, had its eyes spewing magma, forcing Ethan back and standing its ground against him.
"So what if you possess the Fla of Faith? My power far surpasses yours; I will kill you."
The Fla Kirin advanced rather than retreating, attacking Ethan ferociously.
Ethan's eyes burst with brilliance as he roared back: "Kill!!!"
Man and beast collided, and with a huge explosion, flas shot up into the sky.
A gigantic pillar of fire hung in the void, almost reaching the heavens.
Demi-god Phito saw the pillar of fire. Standing at the top of the cliff, he looked down into the fog-filled valley.
The breeze made his divine robe flutter and whistle.
"Ethan can succeed, right?" Phito extended his hands, delicate as jade.
Red and blue lights flashed montarily in his palms.
At the valley floor,
The flas dissipated, and embers slowly fell.
Ethan stood in mid-air, clutching a spear in his hand.
The spear was thrust into Fla Kirin's throat, from which flas erupted vigorously, as if blood itself was gushing out.
Fire and blood intertwined, creating an unparalleled masterpiece.
Fla Kirin scread in agony, its body wavering unstably before finally collapsing onto the ground.
The gleam of intelligence in Fla Kirin's eyes gradually faded, its body becoming sowhat rigid.
Forst Herald abruptly turned around, clumsily maneuvering its enormous body. Its pupils filled with timidity and confusion:
"What were you thinking fighting him? He has a deity servant... Could he be just an ordinary person?"
Forst Herald's eyes brimd with sorrow.
The massive body of Fla Kirin was still ablaze, filling the valley with thick smoke and the scent of sothing charred.
Ethan gazed upon this magnificent sight, catching his breath with a renewed glint of sharpness in his eyes.
"Forst Herald, will you still resist?"
Forst Herald looked at Ethan, its massive crystalline maw opening:
"He and I were one. With his death, I too cannot live."
Forst Herald laid its head upon the ground, as if waiting for death's arrival.
True to its words, the flas throughout the valley began to recede.
They transford into specks of light and rged into Fla Kirin's body.
Ethan furrowed his brows, twirling his spear as he observed the scene before him.
Fla Kirin wouldn't revive, would it?
However, after absorbing the surrounding specks of light, Fla Kirin's body began to change, gradually shrinking.
Then, it suddenly disintegrated, and along with Fla Kirin, Forst Herald also collapsed.
The two behemoths silently fell apart, leaving only a sky full of light specks behind.
These specks of light hung in various parts of the valley's floor like stars.
The scene was fantastical and exceedingly beautiful.
It was like a field in July or August, filled with a myriad of twinkling fireflies.
Such a blurry and dreamy picture surely couldn't be just for show.
Ethan furrowed his brows tighter, not quite understanding what had just happened.
Aneropo approached Ethan, pointing at the specks of light and spoke, "Master, these light points can be connected to form lines."
"Connect them into lines? How so?" Ethan asked, his curiosity piqued.
"Master, why don't you try using Pyro Magic and Cryo Magic?" Aneropo suggested once again.
Ethan swung his arm and chanted a spell, causing a fireball to appear in the air.
The fireball floated aimlessly until it touched one of the light points.
It was as if the fireball had hopped onto a roller coaster, swiftly traveling along a path, passing through the light points.
The fireball traversed through nurous light points, akin to an artist using flas as a brush, painting within the valley.
Soon, a picture composed entirely of fire erged throughout the entire valley.
The pattern was intricate and regal, dizzying anyone who laid their eyes upon it.
Ethan, upon witnessing this scene, exclaid in awe, "Aren't these the Language of Nature?"
