Chapter 254: Dance of Ice and Fire

To say, the golem that Lolan Hill once faced had nearly Sequence 7 strength, but the controller was only at Sequence 6. Moreover, that day was enhanced by moonlight.

But tonight’s sky had no moon, and this giant bear ranked among the upper echelons in terms of power within the Sequence 7 realm. Its fiery magic power was so intense that it made one feel insignificant. No wonder Rachel once sighed that if she could become a Sequence 7, things would be different.

After reaching Sequence 7, as long as one didn’t deliberately seek death, they would basically become a dominant force in their domain, gaining extensive power and freedom.

Flames continuously flashed across the sky, sweeping outwards. Lolan Hill originally intended to take Yixuegelin away, but then she thought that if they left now, the flower field might be destroyed, and the body of the ghostly lady would be ruined by this giant bear, perhaps even consumed.

Such an outcome was unacceptable, especially since Yixuegelin had just saved her. Thus, she kept the ghostly lady flying in the sky, drawing the giant bear’s attention, while pondering how to deal with the bear.

Boom—

Another column of flames came crashing down, the center of the intense fire almost white, dazzling and scorching. The acrid smoke and heat waves spread into the air, making Lolan Hill, who was dodging, feel as though her lungs were on fire. The edges of her white dress turned yellow and black, and she couldn’t help but cough.

If she wasn’t an Extraordinary Being, she would have suffocated and been roasted by now.

This wasn’t a solution.

She plummeted from the sky like a meteor, landing deep within the forest. A column of flames struck through more than a kilometer of trees, spiraling like a cannonball, clearing obstacles in its path. Finally, it was stopped by a thick ice mirror, and Lolan Hill reappeared in the sky.

Crimson crystal-like wings swept across the sky, and another flame pillar came rushing towards her.

A white-blue ice flower bloomed in the air, blocking the flames momentarily. Lolan Hill, adorned with crimson wings, broke free from the flames and continued flying, followed closely by the pillar of fire.

Thus, ice flowers blossomed in the sky, briefly obstructing the flames, while crimson wings traced long, curved arcs.

A blood-red spear gradually formed in her hand, its sharp triangular tip and intricately wrapped shaft, blood oozing from her wrist, seeping into the spear’s grooves, creating uneven spiral patterns until the entire spear turned deep, dark red.

Blood Spear · Gungnir!

With a roar, Lolan Hill launched the blood-red spear like a meteor, a straight red line piercing the night sky and striking the giant bear in the sea of fire.

The giant bear’s chest blazed with white-hot flames, almost colorless, enveloping its entire body. A red line shot past the bear’s eye socket, splattering blood and causing corrosive fumes to rise amidst the flames.

In agony, the giant bear roared, its flames growing ten feet taller, vaporizing the remnants of the blood spear instantly. It slapped its eye socket, tearing flesh, and the flames burned the wound shut.

The injured giant bear grew frenzied, slamming its front paws onto the ground, shaking the earth and sending out waves of fire. Its core burned like the sun, its light scorching the leaves miles away.

Exhausting all its strength, the giant bear inhaled deeply and roared to the sky.

The explosive sound wave seemed tangible, spreading outward like a shockwave, visible golden flames surging rapidly into the distance.

Lolan Hill, flying in the sky, felt as though her ears were about to burst. The tremors blurred her consciousness, and the ghostly lady’s body began to dissipate and fade. It was like a full-color painting exposed to the sun, fading in hue.

No, prolonged combat put us at a disadvantage. The young lady’s mind raced. Suddenly, Yixuegelin’s voice echoed in her head.

“Lolan, if I use all my magic power, I can create a gap. Can you still use that move?”

“I can.” Despite feeling weak from blood loss, Lolan Hill affirmed she could still hold on.

With their plan set, the two adjusted direction in the sky, quickly approaching the giant bear during its roar.

Half of a black candle slid out from her sleeve, igniting itself. The short wax burned rapidly, revealing a golden streamlined spear in her hand.

Then, crimson magic converged, fresh blood seeped in, intertwining gold and red. Finally, a magnificent golden-red spear appeared in her hand. Her face turned pale, beads of sweat forming on her forehead and quickly evaporating under the heat.

The two girls, holding hands like comets, pulled out long spiral arcs, plunging into the sea of fire. Shattered ice shards resisted the surrounding flames, turning into white vapor, leaving trails behind.

Seeing the two girls approach, the giant bear spat flames from its mouth, slapping its front paws at them.

With the ice flowers barely defending, they briefly crossed through the intense heat capable of melting metal. The silver hair of the young lady turned to ash, and the giant shadow loomed overhead.

The silver-haired girl flipped swiftly, throwing her companion to the side. Using centrifugal force, they quickly separated, narrowly avoiding the giant paw’s attack.

The wind pressure from the giant paw made Lolan Hill’s flight unstable, while Yixuegelin rose along the giant bear’s fiery fur, blue ice constantly shedding under the intense flames.

Due to its position, the giant bear couldn’t attack this blind spot for a few seconds, only burning its fur furiously to evaporate the ‘bug’ directly.

Dodging the giant paw, Lolan Hill rushed back towards the giant bear’s fur, golden flames filling her vision, seemingly endless. She held onto the icy Yixuegelin, using her ice flowers to temporarily shield herself from the flames, then ascended rapidly.

Passing through the giant bear’s arm, shoulder, and neck, the brief seconds felt like an eternity. The giant bear’s blood-red eyes finally appeared before the two girls.

Two girls, one red and one blue, spun in the air. With Lolan Hill’s force, Yixuegelin was flung towards the giant bear’s eye.

The ghostly girl’s radiance exploded, a massive ice flower blooming on the giant bear’s eye, its petals suddenly unfurling, freezing a small area.

Now!

The ghostly lady swung her body, the two spinning rapidly. In an instant, their positions switched, Lolan Hill appearing before the giant bear’s eye, her soot-streaked face illuminated by the flames.

Divine Spear · Gungnir!

The splendid golden-red spear plunged into the giant bear’s brain, piercing through. The two figures flew upward at the fastest speed.

Before they could escape far, a sun-like explosion blossomed on the ground, uncontrolled magical power running wild. Rising flames and shockwaves carbonized and sublimated everything around.

The resulting vacuum sucked in debris, broken flames, scorched soil particles, and fragmented rocks swirling in the air.

Finally, the explosion’s fire wave surged into the sky, illuminating the mountains and earth for hundreds of miles as if it were daytime, startling countless creatures and demonic beasts. Sensing the terrifying magic power, many animals and beasts fled, distancing themselves from the danger zone.

On this scorched, chaotic land, the two girls slowly descended. Though they had only known each other for less than a day, they felt like old friends, holding hands, leaning against each other.

In the fire-lit forest, standing amidst the ice flowers, the two girls finally breathed a sigh of relief, watching the residual flames quietly burn. The noisy world gradually returned to calm.
