Versatile Mage

Chapter 3148  Summon the Dragon Flame

Mo Fan walked toward Mu Bai, who was hanging up high in the Heart Palace. He was filled with sorrow when he saw the terrifying wounds on Mu Bai's body.

The suffering and torture were even worse than Mo Fan had imagined.

"It's been a while." Mo Fan forced a smile.

"I'm cultivating. You don't need to feel sorry for me." Mu Bai was tough as nails. He did not want Mo Fan to get too emotional because of him.

"I understand. That's why I'm here to help you. With your speed, when do you think you'll reach the top? Even though these challenges are shaping your True Soul to make you the Dark King, you don't have to face everything alone. We've gone everywhere and always cause chaos, why shouldn't we do the same here? This is just the Dark Plane!" Mo Fan said.

"We three?" Mu Bai paused for a moment and used his divine sense. Coincidentally, he soon heard a familiar scream coming from a distant palace.

"Help me, Mo Fan! Why aren't you here yet?! I can't hold on much longer!"

Mu Bai was momentarily speechless. Zhao Manyan had come along?

This place was like hell. It would not be easy to go back once they were there.

"At this point, there's nothing more to say. The number of rulers on the Dark Plane is limited. You're the Evil Saint King, and I'm also on the verge of completing my Dark True Soul. That means two spots have to be freed up on the Dark Plane for us. So, while they're sitting back, they're waiting for my consciousness to be destroyed and for you to meet your end," Mu Bai said.

"In that case, you should leave this aside and save your strength. I'll free you first," Mo Fan replied.

"No need. I can free myself," Mu Bai declined.

As Mu Bai spoke, pure black energy that resembled blood vessels appeared in his True Soul.

At the same time, Mu Bai exerted all his power. A freezing, dark energy instantly surrounded him and formed an icy coat. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

In fact, the icy, dark energy turned into his flesh and skin. Mu Bai's body was his True Soul. His original body had been destroyed when he first entered the Dark Plane. However, as a descendant of darkness, he had another much stronger body.

This icy, dark body was incredibly powerful. As Mu Bai released his power, the chains that pierced his True Soul immediately froze and shattered.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

The fragments were as heavy as steel. As they smashed onto the ground, they left dents and cracks.

Mu Bai came down slowly. After countless sessions of torture, his eyes had turned a dark silver. They shone brightly with vigor and power.

"How many of them are here in their physical form?" Mu Bai asked.

"I'm not sure. They all look like they're in their physical form," Mo Fan replied.

"That's unlikely. Some of the kings can't possibly do that." Mu Bai shook his head and disagreed.

"Let's go out and take a look."

"Okay."

…

They walked out of the Heart Palace and noticed that there was a fire outside.

The ghostly fire had turned the surrounding palaces into ashes, and the previously crowded royal court had become incredibly empty.

In the distance, the ghostly fire had engulfed the ancient dark city.

The fire was everywhere in the long, ancient streets. Inns, shops, homes, taverns, and restaurants were all burning.

The ghostly fire did not produce thick smoke like regular fires. What made it scary was the sight of people with pig, fox, dog, and ox faces greedily gazing at the royal court amid the burning city. They held knives and forks as if anticipating a food distribution, while their eyes glowed with a sinister green!

Even though the ghostly fire burned as high as skyscrapers, it did not block their view that much.

The fire was clean but also terrifying.

Mo Fan never saw this coming. After he and Mu Bai left the Heart Palace, the ancient dark city changed and revealed its original hellish form.

Stepping on the soul-burning fire, Mo Fan only felt a piercing cold. He looked up and saw the Figures in Eight Directions taking on actual forms. They were huge and magnificent like gods. They seemed out of place compared to the locals in the ancient dark city.

They did not enter the city but sat outside.

However, the towering city walls did not even reach their knees.

The ancient dark city looked just like a big sandbox.

"Let's have some appetizers. These locals are being kept for a reason," the King of Night and Day said.

He enjoyed games.

The King of Night and Day's greatest joy in this world was to toy with living beings. At his level, he was close to being immortal, and nothing could pose a threat to him anymore. All he could do was treat living beings as his playthings.

"I grant you the power to tear them apart!" the King of Night and Day said to the locals of the city with amusement.

"Roar!"

"Kill them! Kill them!"

"Eat them!"

With permission granted, the locals got excited.

The strong and muscular ox-faced humans were at the forefront. They looked as savage as ox demons from hell when wrapped in the ghostly fire.

With that, the group of cannibalistic locals headed toward the royal court and destroyed its walls.

Mu Bai gave the ox-faced humans a cold look.

Suddenly, the ground sank, as if something was swallowing it.

The image of a Devouring Beast appeared in Mu Bai's eyes. At that moment, the Devouring Beast opened its mouth beneath the ground and swallowed up the ox-faced humans who were charging forward.

The ox-faced humans had intended to feast on the newcomers but ended up becoming the Devouring Beast's prey.

The speed at which the beast digested them was astonishing. In the next moment, it spat out a large number of white bones at the burning ancient dark city.

The bones soared high into the sky and showered down on the city.

Mo Fan stood at the side and glanced at Mu Bai.

That was impressive!

It looked like Mu Bai had truly achieved sainthood. He was much more powerful than he had been in Holy City.

"If you want to play, I'm up for it!" Mu Bai looked up at the face in the sky.

Then, he slowly raised one hand.

It appeared as if he was holding up the ancient dark city. With a sudden firm squeeze, the massive city began to shake violently.

Giant cracks swiftly materialized at the city gate and traveled to the royal court. An increasing number of crisscrossing cracks also expanded in different directions.

It was as though a knife had randomly cut through the ancient dark city, like it was slicing a cake.

After the ancient dark city was cut open, a chasm appeared. Countless smaller Devouring Beasts emerged from it, and they all had eyes similar to Mu Bai's dark silver ones. Under the command of the giant Devouring Beast, they started hunting throughout the ancient dark city.

The King of Night and Day kept many locals just for his own entertainment, so he did not care about their lives.

However, Mu Bai's ability to effortlessly summon an army of Devouring Beasts from underground made the King of Night and Day reconsider this game.

After all, Mu Bai used to be just a pawn for his entertainment.

Yet, Mu Bai had seemingly earned the right to be his opponent. He never intentionally granted Mu Bai this privilege. Mu Bai had achieved it through his own efforts.

"It looks like your appetizers didn't quite hit the mark. Let me spice things up a bit," the Duke of Shadow suggested.

The Duke of Shadow could not wait any longer. He reached out and covered the ancient dark city with his giant hand.

Just like that, the shadows of the locals and Devouring Beasts were revealed under his palm.

Surprisingly, as the Duke of Shadow flipped his hand, their shadows separated from their bodies and turned into Ghostly Shadows!

These Ghostly Shadows quickly gathered and formed an army that obeyed the Duke of Shadow's commands.

"Kill them!" the Duke of Shadow said coldly.

He pointed at the royal court, and the army of Ghostly Shadows immediately surged toward it like a black tide.

Mo Fan was astonished. The Duke of Shadow had conjured up an army out of nowhere, and he did it by using the powers of Mu Bai and the King of Night and Day. This meant that the strength of his ability depended entirely on how strong the others were!

"Interesting."

"Finally, something impressive."

The other Dark Kings started praising him.

Mu Bai kept his eye on the Duke of Shadow as he told Mo Fan, "The Duke of Shadow should be in his physical form, but I'm not sure about the others."

"So, can we go all out and kill him?" Mo Fan asked.

"We can. But dealing with so many Ghostly Shadows will take a lot of time and magic power." Mu Bai nodded.

"Don't worry. I can use my Summoning Element Magic," said Mo Fan.

"You now have the Summoning Element Forbidden Curse?" Mu Bai asked.

"No. But I have a plan."

As Mo Fan spoke, he raised his hands slowly.

A small black star vortex then appeared on his palms. As Mo Fan reinforced the Star Palace filled with countless Star Sons, the black star vortex expanded and started spinning by itself.

With a gentle push upward, the black star vortex ascended slowly.

The black star vortex hovered above the royal court's gate, and its size was about half of the court.

At this point, the army of Ghostly Shadows had gathered outside the court. They crowded the road and had to climb over each other to get through.

"I have a surprise for you." Mo Fan grinned and casually snapped his fingers.

The head of a massive creature slowly emerged from the black star vortex. The majestic black head looked imposing, and it had big black horns!

At first, the Duke of Shadow did not know what kind of magic Mo Fan was using.

However, when he saw the head of a black dragon emerge from the black star vortex, he knew what Mo Fan was up to. He quickly ordered his army of Ghostly Shadows to move aside.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The Black Dragon Emperor opened its mouth and unleashed the world's most terrifying demonic flames from deep within its throat.

It was the Black Dragon Flame!

The Black Dragon Emperor did not physically appear, but Mo Fan had asked it to help by unleashing its flames.

The burst of Black Dragon Flame was akin to pouring a sea of molten lava onto the ancient dark city. Compared to the ghostly fire, this flame was much fiercer.

It swept across the city from one end to another and wiped out the massive army of Ghostly Shadows!
