204: Give me ten seconds!!!

Lu Yuan licked his somewhat dry lips. He was determined to have this item!

"Rumble—"

Just then, the calm gold Lava Lake suddenly began to churn violently.

A colossal shadow slowly rose from the bottom of the lake.

"Splash—"

Countless gold lava slid off its massive body.

A giant creature, ten meters tall, composed entirely of lava and Fire Source Crystals, slowly rose from the lake.

It had no fixed features or form; its body's outline constantly flowed and changed.

But a terrifying pressure, far more immense than all the previous demon beasts combined, descended!

Sixth-tier peak!

The Fire Vein Earth Spirit!

Its aura was intimately connected with the entire Crystal Cave, and even the deeper earth veins.

It was the will incarnate of this Fire Source Land!

"Buzz—"

An invisible wave swept through Lu Yuan and Blazing Flame's minds.

It wasn't a sound, but a roar that directly affected the soul.

"Intruder..."

"Leave..."

"Or... perish..."

"My King! This is the Earth Vein Guardian! It can mobilize the power of the entire earth vein!"

Blazing Flame urgently warned.

"Fighting it here is extremely disadvantageous for us!"

"Roar!"

The Fire Vein Earth Spirit clearly didn't give them a choice.

It roared, raising its massive arm, composed of countless Fire Source Crystals, and smashed it fiercely towards the Lava Troll!

"Presumptuous!"

Blazing Flame roared in fury, a blood-red light flashing in his eyes.

"A mere Earth Spirit dares to challenge the King!"

"For this old servant—shatter!"

He controlled the Lava Troll, not retreating but advancing, likewise wielding a massive lava iron fist and bravely meeting the attack!

"Boom—!!!!"

Two exaggeratedly sized giant fists collided with a bang in the center of the Crystal Cave!

A terrifying energy shockwave transformed into a visible circular air current, spreading wildly in all directions!

The entire Crystal Cave shook violently, and countless tiny Fire Source Crystals rustled down from the cave ceiling.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

Two behemoths engaged in the most primitive, most brutal close combat!

Each collision was like two mountains clashing.

Lava splattered, and crystal fragments flew.

Lu Yuan didn't rush to act.

He narrowed his eyes, and with a thought,

A gold beast taming card phantom flashed behind him.

Heavenly Thunder Light Falcon!

Falcon Eye Lock-on!

In an instant, the world in Lu Yuan's eyes changed.

Under the super long-range perception of Falcon Eye Lock-on, the Fire Vein Earth Spirit was no longer a simple elemental creature.

He could clearly see countless invisible energy threads continuously flowing into the Fire Vein Earth Spirit's body from the crystal walls in all directions and from deep underground.

And the ultimate convergence point of all these energy threads was precisely the primal fire heart crystal!

Energy was converted and purified through the fire heart crystal, then supplied to its entire body.

At the same time, the energy consumed in battle would return to the earth vein along these threads, forming a perfect, almost lossless energy cycle!

"So that's how it is..."

Lu Yuan understood.

"Its energy source is the entire earth vein."

"As long as this Fire Source Crystal Cave isn't destroyed, its power is endless."

"Fighting a war of attrition with it is suicide."

"Boom!"

Just then, the battle took a sudden turn.

The Fire Vein Earth Spirit, having fought for a long time without success, seemed to lose patience.

It let out an even more violent soul roar.

The entire gold Lava Lake instantly boiled!

"Splash—"

Dozens of thick lava pillars shot into the sky, twisting and changing in mid-air, transforming into lava giant pythons over twenty meters long!

These giant pythons were entirely composed of gold lava, emitting high temperatures capable of melting steel, hissing as they simultaneously pounced from all directions on the Lava Troll, which was entangled with the Earth Spirit's main body!

"Roar!"

The Lava Troll was instantly submerged by dozens of lava giant pythons.

Its massive body was tightly coiled, and the frantic Bite and high-temperature scorching caused its lava armor to melt at a visible rate.

"My King!"

"We can't wait any longer!"

Lu Yuan's gaze sharpened.

The ancient sea shark war halberd in his hand let out a hum.

"Swish!"

Lu Yuan's figure rushed out like a ghost!

"Frost Flame Power!"

A wisp of extreme cold frost white and a wisp of scorching crimson gold instantly entwined around the deep blue halberd!

He didn't attack the Fire Vein Earth Spirit's main body, but instead directly charged into the ocean formed by the lava giant pythons!

"Sizzle—!"

The halberd, empowered by both ice and fire energy, slashed fiercely onto a lava giant python.

A piercing sizzling sound rang out!

The berserk lava giant python was like an ice cube splashed with strong acid; the part of its body struck was instantly frozen, and then immediately detonated by the internal high temperature!

"Bang!"

One halberd strike, one giant python, vanished into thin air!

Lu Yuan's attack was highly effective!

The halberd in his hand seemed to transform into an ice-blue lightning bolt, weaving freely through the gold lava ocean!

Every flash of halberd light was inevitably accompanied by the collapse of a lava giant python.

"My King!"

Blazing Flame seized the moment when the Lava Troll's pressure suddenly decreased and broke free.

He looked at Lu Yuan, who was charging through the enemy like a god of war, and anxiously transmitted a message:

"These things are endless! As long as the Lava Lake exists, it can summon more at any time!"

"We can't afford to waste time! We must find a way to cut off its connection with the earth vein!"

Cut off the connection?

Lu Yuan's gaze, overcoming all obstacles, locked onto the primal fire heart crystal still pulsating in the distance.

No.

Cutting off the connection would be too slow.

Moreover, who knew if the Fire Vein Earth Spirit would go berserk and self-destruct after being cut off.

If he was going to play, he would play big!

An extremely crazy idea arose in Lu Yuan's mind.

A look of determination flashed in his eyes.

Pulling the rug out from under it!

What he wanted to do was not to cut off, but to... drain!

"Blazing Flame!"

Lu Yuan's cold voice rang directly in Blazing Flame's mind.

"Hold it back!"

"Give me ten seconds!"

Blazing Flame was stunned, not understanding what his King intended to do.

But the loyalty from his bloodline made him not hesitate in the slightest.

"As you command! My King!"

He roared, controlling the Lava Troll, and once again charged recklessly towards the Fire Vein Earth Spirit's main body!

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan, after dodging the pounce of several giant pythons with a flash, suddenly stopped.

In his hand, a card glowing with gold light and emitting mysterious spatial fluctuations slowly appeared.

Heaven and Earth Origin Power Great Teleportation!
