Bai Ming didn't hesitate and quickly landed on the ground while placing the spirit herbs inside his robes, he lightly dabbed his bag of holding and a formation flew out.

Bai Ming stared intently at the transfer array as he rapidly injected his divine sense, and a second later disappointment was evident on his cold face as the formation refused to lit up.

Sighing internally, Bai Ming flapped his beast wings and charged out of this place. As he moved, he found fire beasts everywhere. The more he traveled, the more shocked he became. The bloodthirsty eyes of these fire beasts only had one point of interest, and that was him.

A roar came from behind Bai Ming and the heat in the area suddenly intensified. As Bai Ming ran, his face was dark, he had no intention to confront these creatures in a life-and-death battle. He abruptly paused as he saw a sea of flames gathered in the land before him before pouncing at him. The fire formed a creature with golden triangular eyes, It looked at Bai Ming with overwhelming killing intent.

Without a word, Bai Ming used the devil hand soul technique. A transparent claw made up of soul force shot out from Bai Ming's forehead and entered the fire beast. The fire beast's fire dimmed for a moment, but it soon recovered. It then opened its mouth and let out a roar before charging at Bai Ming. freewebno vel.com

Bai Ming's face darkened even more. He turned around, but his pupils suddenly shrank as another fire beast appeared behind him.

At this moment, two fire beasts were blocking both sides. Without missing a beat Bai Ming retracted his beast wings and descended quickly, narrowly avoiding the fire beasts and then he quickly unfurled his wings and flapped them once again.

But just at this moment, the two fire beasts suddenly let out ferocious roars. Bai Ming's heart sank. The air around Bai Ming suddenly turned red and hardened until it formed a cage. Bai Ming was trapped inside.

This cage was closing around him until it surrounded him, finally trapping Bai Ming inside.

At this moment, waves of cracks appeared on the ground. The ground collapsed inwards, forming a basin. One of the fire beasts neared the cage trapping Bai Ming before shooting the cage into the basin.

Under the careful manipulation of the fire beasts the dirt surrounding the cage suddenly turned red and engulfed the cage, cutting off Bai Ming's vision. freew(e)bnovel.com

Around the cage were eight fire beasts that constantly spewed fire at the cubical cage to make it smaller. Soon, the cube grew smaller and smaller, and the beasts eventually stopped.

One of the fire beasts grabbed the cube and started moving it underground. The other fire beasts quickly followed. They soon returned to the cave they were in before.

The fire beast threw the cube into the lava before jumping in with the other fire beasts. They all disappeared into the lava. The lava let out a few more bubbles before calming down.

The surrounding volcanoes stopped spewing black smoke and the heat wave disappeared. Aside from the giant basin that was formed by the fire beast, there was no other evidence of what had just occurred remaining.

But at this moment azure blue lights suddenly flared up within the lava, which was soon accompanied by the furious and indignant outcries of beasts.

Not far away, the formation lit up with dazzling azure blue lights and from within the formation a miserable figure walked out.

It was none other than Bai Ming, previously when he witnessed the huge number of fire beasts coming out from the volcanos, he had set up this formation to check for other coordinates but Bai Ming had not retrieved the transfer array, he had purposefully left it behind.

'I have to vacate this place quickly, these fire beasts are quite peculiar.' Bai Ming shook his head and immediately took flight, flying at his top speed.

But before he got very far, a giant divine sense swept by him. This divine sense quickly moved back and concentrated on him. Shocked, Bai Ming scanned the sky. What he saw were thirty-nine humongous fire beasts in a circle with a ring of fire in between them.

Threads of fire from the fire ring were connected to the fire beasts' heads.

The powerful divine sense came from the ring of power. This was clearly a special technique the fire beasts were born with. It was something they could only use when working together.

When they found Bai Ming, all 39 fire beasts' eyes went cold. They all roared as they descended from the sky and charged at Bai Ming.

Bai Ming sped up without a word and escaped. The 39 giant beasts all let out angry roars and spat out fire, causing the ground to turn red and split apart.

Bai Ming already had no intention of fighting those smaller fire beasts, so why would he face these monstrosities? As the fire came out of the beasts' mouths, Bai Ming sent out a few defensive treasures to disrupt their attack and he disappeared once again.

The 39 giant beasts didn't give up. The only reason they left the volcano was to find and kill the cultivator that stole their sacred fruit. This was the only thought in their minds right now.

As Bai Ming flew more, he got faster. These fire beasts were faster inside the lava, but once out here in the open, Bai Ming managed to barely keep his distance.

However, Bai Ming didn't feel very well. The surrounding spiritual energy was filled with a chaotic element. Every time he absorbed some, he would feel waves of pain.

In addition to the constant roars of the 39 giant fire beasts behind him, countless fire beasts were coming to obstruct him. More and more fire beasts accumulated behind him, chasing after him. He spread out his divine sense and felt his heart go cold. There were so many fire beasts behind him that he couldn't tell how many there were right away.

If he were to pause for just a moment, the fire beasts would tear him apart, but Bai Ming was not one to be hunted. For all his life Bai Ming had bullied the weak, while also fearlessly fighting against the strong.

At this moment, a vicious gaze flashed across his eyes. Next, thirty flying swords flew out of his bag of holding and uncaringly attacked a fire beast and stabbed it.

The sound of metal hitting each other rang out. Tiny bloody wounds appeared on the chest of the beast and it was knocked far away. It let out a roar as it got up and continued chasing.

Bai Ming's expression was normal, but his face darkened. Not only were the fire beasts immune to his soul path techniques, but their bodies were also this tough. These flying swords were only able to wound that beast's body, and from the looks of it, it could only be considered a light wound.

Bai Ming was unwilling to give up. As he flew, he continued to attack the fire beasts. However, in the end, they were only low-grade flying swords, after hundreds of rounds they were completely melted.

Bai Ming snorted and spat out his superior-grade flying sword and attacked the beasts viciously. Using its ability to teleport, the sword moved in a very strange way until it stabbed in between the brows of a fire beast. The sword sunk in and the fire beasts exploded, releasing waves of heat.

Bai Ming's hair immediately curled as the smell of burning hair reached him, but his eyes lit up. Although these fire beasts were tough, they were not without weaknesses.

After this, Bai Ming continued to control the flying word to ambush the fire beasts. One by one, the fire beasts were beheaded by him. Based on his calculations, the normal-sized fire beasts were only at the elemental stage, but because they had mysterious souls and tough bodies, it was difficult to kill them. As for those 39 fire beasts, Bai Ming guessed them to be quasi-tier-6 beasts.

Because Bai Ming was only one person and adding on the fact that the fire beasts knew no fear, they continued to chase after him.

Eventually, the flying sword teleported too much and its shape began to change. There were dents on it and some parts of it had completely melted. If the flying sword's original owner were to be revived, even he wouldn't be able to recognize it anymore.

Bai Ming realized that this was not a long-term solution as more and more fire beasts showed up, his divine sense and spiritual essence reserves definitely couldn't keep up with the number of beasts, and a battle of attrition was simply not favorable to Bai Ming. Even though he had 70% spiritual essence in his reserves, once he runs out and can't recover fast enough, he will undoubtedly perish.

'I have already spent 30% of my spiritual reserves and after controlling those flying swords for such a long time, much of my divine sense has been depleted. This is a problem, the longer this fight goes on the more disadvantages it is for me. After all these days of constant fighting, I have already used up all my qi-returning pills. Now I can only depend on the heaven and earth essence present in the air to replenish my reserves, but after the eruption took place the natural essence is not suitable for absorption.'

'And these accursed beasts, I can't kill these beasts with soul path skills. Normal flying swords cannot damage their hard bodies and killing them one by one will get me nowhere. But..what about hitting them with powerful blunt attacks? Let's find out!'

An ominous light flickered past Bai Ming's eyes, in a breaths time Bai Ming had performed dozens of complicated hand signs, following which his spiritual reserves were immediately depleted by half.

Woosh, woosh, woosh, woosh, woosh.....!

The wind swirled wildly causing the fire beasts to abruptly pause and looked on blankly, a few short breaths later hundred giant hand phantoms radiating a majestic yet domineering aura crystallized in the air before slamming toward the sea of the fire beasts.

The heated battle immediately turned even more chaotic.
