Even the powerful Vortex could not find any medicine for regret in the face of Meng Chao's roaring fists.
It was forced out of the Broken Claw Dragon's shattered body by Meng Chao's punches.
A 'Ji and Lu Siya were dumbfounded when they saw the wisps of black adhesive liquid hissing in pain and trying to escape from the Broken Claw Dragon's body to stay away from Meng Chao's attacks.
"I-Isn't this a little too much?"
A 'Ji stuttered. "W-Just what sort of monster did you create?!"
"I-I don't know."
Lu Siya gulped with great difficulty. She still could not believe her eyes and mumbled, "It's really Divine Nine Dragon Seals? When did this boy learn this move behind my back?! "
At first glance, the Vortex could not fight back against Meng Chao's Divine Nine Dragon Seals at all.
Most of the black adhesive liquid had left the Broken Claw Dragon's body, and it was like a pile of sticky mud that had been burned at high temperature. It could not gather together into a complete form.
But that was the problem.
Now that it had returned to its original form, its flexibility and malleability had increased to the max.
Meng Chao threw a punch. Even though he managed to leave a huge pit on its body, the power of Divine Nine Dragon Seals spread out endlessly and spread evenly through its body. Then, it traveled to the ground through its side that was stuck close to the floor.
In the end, 90% of the destructive force was absorbed by the rocks underground.
The Vortex seemed to be in a pathetic state, but it still struggled and screeched.
And as time passed, the dragon meridians around Meng Chao and the spirit tattoos that spread out in a radial fashion became chaotic.
A 'Ji and Lu Siya knew very well that Meng Chao was forcing himself to execute Divine Nine Dragon Seals with his four-star strength.
It was just like how A 'Ji's right arm had been torn off by Celestial Tyrant's Star Shattering Slash. Meng Chao's body was definitely suffering from the backlash of the dragon meridians dancing madly. Every second, countless blood vessels, nerves, spirit meridians, and muscle fibers were torn.
It was impossible for him to execute Divine Nine Dragon Seals endlessly.
And once he finished executing the move, he would definitely face a very long and very weak cooldown period.
If he could not kill the Vortex with one move, he would be able to kill the Vortex.
This creature with incredibly terrifying regeneration abilities was finally able to digest and absorb the Hell's Blood it had just devoured. It returned to its incomparably monstrous form.
Just now, it was not as if A 'Ji and Lu Siya had not gained the upper hand, but they were dragged down by the Vortex's super healing abilities.
"What should we do?"
The two of them were burning with anxiety.
"We can't keep fighting like this. Even if we gain the upper hand for a while, we won't be able to kill it!"
A 'Ji gritted his teeth and said, "This creature is afraid of fire. We need to use flames that are thousands of degrees Celsius to' end 'it completely!"
"But we're deep underground. Where are we supposed to find flames?" Lu Siya covered the wound on her chest and cried out.
He narrowed his eyes.
Naturally, he heard the two's warning.
Even if they didn't warn him, no one knew better than him how dangerous the situation was.
After fusing with the Broken Claw Dragon and being injected with Hell's Blood, the Vortex was the most terrifying enemy Meng Chao had ever encountered.
With Divine Nine Dragon Seals, Meng Chao gained an overwhelming advantage.
But it could only last for a moment. He could not cleanly reduce the creature to ashes!
— —
'Fire!
'I need fire!'
Raging flames, incomparably explosive rage!
With the help of Divine Nine Dragon Seals, Meng Chao's punches became faster. The high-speed friction between his fists and the air created thousands of sparks. With the spirit flames adding fuel to the fire, his fists were as hot as steel that was thousands of degrees Celsius. They shone with a dark red hue, and each time he punched the Vortex, he left behind a sizzling hole in it.
But it was not enough. It was still far from enough!
Meng Chao's vitality magnetic field instantly spread through the entire material warehouse in search of anything that could ignite or even explode.
Fortunately, he soon found it.
The warehouse might have been small, but it had everything. It was filled with the most valuable monster materials and high-grade crystals that Saber Jin Wanhao had spent his entire life gathering.
Fire-type materials and crystals were the most common among all the treasures in the world.
For example, the first superbeast Meng Chao killed after he awakened to supernatural abilities was a Ghost-eyed Golden Winged Flame Beetle. It was a fire-type superbeast. There was really sticky fuel in its body, and it could instantly create a hell that was more than one thousand degrees Celsius hot.
And the quality of the materials Saber Jin Wanhao gathered was at least ten times higher than the sticky liquid of the Ghost-eyed Golden Winged Flame Beetle.
Meng Chao instantly locked onto the two materials and crystals.
Flame Spear Beast's acid!
Sulphuric Fire Crystals!
The former came from the digestive system of Grade Six Hell Beasts. Its ignition point was really low, but its temperature was really high. It was very active, and once it came into contact with air, it would burn. It was the greatest reason Flame Spear Beasts relied on to spit fire and burn everything.
The latter came from the most active volcanoes in the south of Dragon City. It could only be found in the depths of the most violent volcanoes. Even if it was only the size of half a grain of rice, it could create the effects of a heavy incendiary bomb.
These incredibly dangerous materials were originally protected by storage boxes made of mithril stabilizing liquid and super alloy.
But after Meng Chao, Lu Siya, A 'Ji, and the Vortex's shocking fight, the entire material warehouse was attacked by spirit energy that was as powerful as a tidal wave. A few of the storage boxes became distorted, and cracks appeared on them.
The incredibly unstable spirit energy inside gushed out in the form of visible crimson spirit energy, and Meng Chao, who was a golden harvester, instantly sensed it.
He kicked the Vortex away.
He extended his arms and opened his purlicue. He used the rotational power of his magnetic field to suck the metal boxes containing Flame Spear Beast's acid and Sulphuric Fire Crystals over.
Kacha, Kacha!
The two incomparably hard storage boxes were crushed by him like mud.
The mithril stabilizing liquid inside poured out and spread evenly on his arms, causing them to shine with a silver light. It looked like he was wearing a layer of silver armor.
Then, the Flame Spear Beast's acid flowed onto the silver armor.
Meng Chao swung his arms gently. His fists scraped against the air at high speed, and sparks instantly ignited the Flame Spear Beast's acid, causing his arms to turn into two burning torches. No, they were fire dragons that bared their teeth and spat out magma!
Under the illumination of the flames, the Vortex let out a despairing scream.
Meng Chao grinned and swung the two fire dragons to pounce on it fiercely.
This time, with just one punch, he sent the Vortex's soul flying out of its body.
Not only did he leave behind a terrifying pit on the black adhesive liquid, he also sent a large amount of the Flame Spear Beast's acid into the pit to continue burning.
In an instant, the Vortex was reduced to a huge fireball.
The outermost layer of black adhesive liquid was burned into a crisp shell. It lost its mobility, regeneration ability, and ability to change unpredictably.
At first glance, it could no longer squirm, dodge, or regenerate.
"Careful, it's just the outermost layer that's been burned!"
A 'Ji had fought against the Vortex for the longest, so he knew just how terrifying this creature was. "There might be a lot of adhesive liquid in the burnt shell that's still active!"
"I know!"
A fierce light shone in Meng Chao's eyes.
He held the Sulphuric Fire Crystal in his right hand tightly, as if he was holding an active volcano that was about to erupt.
The continuous eruptions had drained all his contribution points and spirit energy, and he could no longer keep Divine Nine Dragon Seals running at full capacity.
But that was fine.
With the last bit of spirit energy he had left, he could still deliver his favorite Demon Subduing Pole.
Of course, it was the deluxe version with extra ingredients, the super large version, Flaming Demon Subduing Pole!
"Die, you bastard!"
Meng Chao crushed the Sulphuric Fire Crystal in his palm.
His entire right fist turned into an incomparably dazzling little sun.
It was about the same size as the sun A 'Ji had created when he executed Celestial Tyrant's Star Shattering Slash.
His right arm swelled up several times, and it looked like a demon subduing pole that stood at the top of the world. There was even a huge, raging dragon wrapped around it.
The demon subduing pole pushed the small sun toward the Vortex.
Boom!
Before the burning demon subduing pole pierced through the Vortex's burnt shell, the Vortex exploded.
A large amount of black, blood-red, and nearly transparent adhesive liquid mixed with the Broken Claw Dragon's flesh and bones. It flew everywhere like a goddess scattering petals.
Most of the adhesive liquid, flesh, and shattered bones were burned to ashes by the raging flames that shot out of Meng Chao's right arm.
This time, it was A 'Ji and Lu Siya's turn to see only white and orange. Aside from the raging flames that were each higher than the last, they could not see anything else.
"W-What a terrifying flame attack!"
"That boy isn't just a monster! He's practically a fire demon that crawled out of hell!"
"D-Did he kill that monster?"
Even when the flames disappeared, the two of them still felt lingering fear, and they gasped in amazement.
When they looked at Meng Chao again, he knelt on one knee. His arms were charred black, and he was exhausted. He swayed on his feet.
In front of him was an evenly distributed layer of fine black sand. Clearly, it was the remains of the Vortex being completely burned to ashes. It had long since lost all its cell activity and life force.
"D-Is it finally over?"
Lu Siya and A 'Ji looked at each other and sighed in relief.
They all felt that the past hour was as long as a year of suffering in the eighteenth level of hell.
"No, it's not completely dead yet!"
Only Meng Chao could tell from the imperfect attack just now that the Vortex had not been destroyed by his Flaming Demon Subduing Pole. Instead, it had taken the initiative to detonate all of the Broken Claw Dragon's flesh and blood along with 90% of its adhesive liquid.
Just like how geckos cut off their tails to survive and how sea cucumbers tossed out their organs to confuse their enemies when they were in danger, the Vortex had tossed the Broken Claw Dragon's carcass and 90% of its body at Meng Chao as sacrifices for the Flaming Demon Subduing Pole so that the last 10% of the transparent adhesive liquid could escape.
No, it was not just escaping. It wanted to …
Meng Chao's pupils shrank to the size of needles.
Under the cover of the black ashes was a layer of nearly transparent adhesive liquid that was as thin as a cicada's wing. It suddenly screeched and rolled up to pounce on him!
