"Set formation!
Set the Heavenly Fire Formation!" the Jinwu Sect Leader shouted.
Boom! Boom...
At the Sect Leader's command, the bodies of every Golden Crow Sect member erupted into searing flames. Above each of them rose a massive, fiery apparition of a golden crow, blazing within an inferno.
Then, all the sect members began taking up specific positions to construct the formation.
Within moments, more than a dozen great formations manifested!
These formations released vast quantities of flame, burning so fiercely that the fabric of the surrounding sky and earth twisted and distorted.
Towering golden crow phantoms soared into the air, their piercing shrieks cutting through the din.
Boom! Boom...
The gigantic crows, their wings flapping violently, swooped down to attack the ten Half-Emperor experts and Ye Yunfei.
"Heavenly Fire Formation?
Hmm, it's not a bad battle formation," Ye Yunfei observed the scene for a moment and remarked nonchalantly.
By now, the ten Half-Emperors had already engaged the forces of the Golden Crow Sect in fierce combat.
The Golden Crow Sect had a total of seven Half-Emperor experts present on the scene.
Two other Half-Emperors were notably absent.
The sect's seven Half-Emperors clashed against an equal number on Ye Yunfei's side.
The three remaining Half-Emperors on Ye Yunfei's team were dealing with the rest of the Golden Crow Sect's forces.
A significant contingent of the sect's elite members had formed over a dozen battle arrays. Their power was indeed formidable, creating a dynamic and intense battlefield. After all, the Golden Crow Sect was an ancient lineage with profound historical roots, possessing a certain level of inherent strength.
"I see.
The Golden Crow Sect's Heavenly Fire Formation may be decent, but my Profound Fire Art can easily dismantle it.
The Profound Fire Art is practically the natural bane of this Heavenly Fire Formation!"
After a short while, Ye Yunfei had gained a clear understanding of the Heavenly Fire Formation deployed by the sect's forces and had devised a method to break it.
"I haven't officially started cultivating the Profound Fire Art in this life yet. However, I cultivated it to a very high realm in my previous life, and I still retain some of that foundation. Alright, I'll use my five Exotic Fires to see if I can break these formations," Ye Yunfei contemplated silently.
In the next instant, his figure blurred as he shot toward one of the Heavenly Fire Formations.
Above this particular formation hovered an immense golden crow phantom, its entire form wreathed in raging flames. It wielded wings sharp as golden blades and clawed feet pulsing with fierce strength as it lunged toward one of the Half-Emperor experts.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger, and all five of his Exotic Fires surged forth simultaneously, instantly erupting into five colossal balls of flame. They radiated terrifying incinerating energy.
"Merge!"
Ye Yunfei executed a specific maneuver from the Profound Fire Art, his hands forming an intricate, esoteric hand seal which he directed towards the five Exotic Fires.
Immediately, the five fires drew closer to one another, beginning to merge.
However, since Ye Yunfei hadn't formally cultivated the Profound Fire Art in this life, a complete fusion of the five fires proved unattainable.
Each Exotic Fire possessed different attributes; achieving true synergy between them was a challenging feat.
In the end, the five fires converged uneasily, forming a multicolored fireball. Its aura was somewhat unstable, seeming to contain a terrifying explosive potential.
"This will have to do for now.
To truly merge these five Exotic Fires, I'll need to formally cultivate the Profound Fire Art in the future," Ye Yunfei said, wryly smiling as he sensed the precarious energy of the multicolored sphere before him.
"Now, break!"
Ye Yunfei's hands remained in their seal as he pushed out forcefully towards the fireball.
HOOOM...
The fireball shot forward, carrying with it devastating incinerating power.
ROAR...
Mid-flight, the fireball astonishingly transformed into a dazzling, multicolored Fire Dragon that let out a deafening roar before hurtling toward the Heavenly Fire Formation.
Guided by Ye Yunfei's control, the Fire Dragon's point of impact was precisely the critical node of the formation.
ROARBLE...
The dragon crashed into the formation at its key nexus, instantly throwing the Golden Crow Sect members within into disarray. Staggering and stumbling, they lost their rhythm completely, causing the entire Heavenly Fire Formation to collapse into chaos.
"AAAAAAARGH!"
Composed of the merged five Exotic Fires, this Fire Dragon possessed chaotic, annihilating heat. As it streaked through the formation, any Golden Crow Sect member it brushed against had their body instantly set ablaze, engulfed in fierce flames, and let out blood-curdling screams.
Being attacked simultaneously by five different Exotic Fires, how could ordinary Golden Crow Sect disciples withstand it? Within moments, they were burned into charred, blackened husks before disintegrating into ash.
Just like that, one Heavenly Fire Formation was broken by Ye Yunfei.
This Heavenly Fire Formation was inherently a formation constructed on the principles of Yang-Attribute Energy and scorching heat. However, the Yang-Attribute and incinerating energy these Golden Crow Sect members possessed paled in comparison to the potency of Ye Yunfei's five Exotic Fires.
Thus, in the face of Ye Yunfei's power, this Heavenly Fire Formation was as fragile as an egg, utterly defenseless.
BOOM... BOOM...
With another point of his finger, the Fire Dragon, materialized from the five Exotic Fires, shot toward another Heavenly Fire Formation. Within moments, that formation was also shattered.
Following this, Ye Yunfei continued to control the Fire Dragon, breaking through four or five Heavenly Fire Formations in succession.
A large number of Golden Crow Sect members found their bodies ignited by infernal flames. They thrashed and writhed on the ground, howling in agony, but could do nothing to extinguish the fires devouring them.
"Damn it!
He broke the Heavenly Fire Formation!"
The Jinwu Sect Leader and the other high-ranking elders were simultaneously aghast and furious.
The Heavenly Fire Formation was an ancient formation passed down by their Golden Crow Sect, considered one of the foundational pillars of their power. They never imagined it could be so effortlessly shattered by a mere junior!
The Jinwu Sect Leader and the Half-Emperor experts desperately wished to rush over and deal with Ye Yunfei, but each was blocked by a powerful Half-Emperor on his side, leaving them completely unable to disengage.
All of the Half-Emperor experts imprisoned within the Heavenly Dao Tower were ancient powerhouses, each with formidable combat prowess. At this moment, they were steadily driving back the Golden Crow Sect's Half-Emperors, gaining the upper hand.
Moments later, Ye Yunfei shattered two more Heavenly Fire Formations.
"Send the order! Dispatch another group of forces to fight!
Also, go report immediately to the two Supreme Elders! Tell them to leave seclusion and face these powerful foes!"
Suddenly, the Jinwu Sect Leader roared.
He understood the situation was becoming dire for the Golden Crow Sect if things continued like this.
More and more of their members were being consumed by flames, collapsing to the ground in tortured screams.
If this persisted, the Golden Crow Sect's combatants present on the field risked total annihilation!
The Golden Crow Sect had a total of nine Half-Emperor experts. Seven were currently here. The remaining two Supreme Elders were in seclusion, attempting to break through to the Heavenly Heavenly Emperor Realm.
The Sect Leader knew the Golden Crow Sect was facing an unprecedented crisis and resolved, regardless of the cost, to have the two Supreme Elders exit seclusion to join the battle!
As the Jinwu Sect Leader barked his commands, soon more Golden Crow Sect members charged in from all directions.
"Everyone, listen up! Do NOT set up any more Heavenly Fire Formations! Concentrate your strength and surround Ye Yunfei!"
The Jinwu Sect Leader deliberated for a moment, then issued another order.
He had realized these Heavenly Fire Formations were, in Ye Yunfei's hands, as brittle and vulnerable as mere eggs!
