The Celestial Fire Domain army, led by Brahma Heaven, finds itself encircled by three Vast Realm armies, including Fei Bing's forces, who mock him and claim the trap isn't even for him. Fei Bing, haunted by news of Ning Qi's conquest in the Lower Realm, channels his fear into rage and orders an attack to avenge fallen allies. As Earth Gold and Vine Wood Domain armies rush to Brahma Heaven's aid upon receiving a urgent message, Ning Qi, after securing another hidden node, notices the dire situation on his compass and tears through space toward the battlefield to protect a True Martial Realm reincarnator among the Celestial Fire forces.

In the northern reaches of the Central Domain.

Chaos swirls through the Spiritual Qi in this place, while a overpowering stench of blood saturates the atmosphere, sharply assaulting the senses.

Body fragments litter the terrain, sunk into crimson pools that make eyelids flutter uncontrollably.

At the same time, the clash overhead rages without end.

Armies from the Three Domains of the Vast Realm have converged, locked in a brutal confrontation against the cultivators from the Celestial Fire Realm in the Mountain and Sea Realm; the result is obvious.

Yet because they are all cultivators with varying might, even the Vast Realm's greater numbers can't prevent heavy casualties amid the Celestial Fire Realm army's frantic resistance.

Currently, Brahma Heaven, serving as the Celestial Fire Realm army's leader, endures, but his unmatched strength attracts the heaviest onslaught of adversaries.

The rival leaders Fei Bing, Hua Jieyu, and Qiu Daoyu combine their powers, butchering the Celestial Fire Realm's ranks, and surge right up to Brahma Heaven.

Spotting the trio advancing, Brahma Heaven erupts in flames that scorch the skies, his scarlet blaze roaring, and forms an illusory Fire God figure.

The figure lacks full clarity, its face a blaze of fire, yet the armor shows exquisite detail.

Scarlet armor of mysterious origin covers the form, akin to glowing divine metal.

The apparition stands as a colossal being, wielding a blade shrouded in smoke and fire in its right hand, while the left clutches a huge flaming bow and crossbow.

Obviously, Brahma Heaven's gear comprises elite spiritual treasures; his father Fan City, placed in the top fifty of the Mountain and Sea Realm's Unity Realm, clearly prizes his heir, outfitting him with fitting, element-matched superior items.

No sooner does the Fire God apparition emerge than it assaults the approaching three foes.

The smoke-wreathed fiery blade cleaves the emptiness, while the fire bow crossbow simultaneously ignites, launching endless toxic flame arrows that glint coldly!

Swoosh, swoosh!

In response to Brahma Heaven's onslaught, Fei Bing, Hua Jieyu, and Qiu Daoyu counter jointly.

Fei Bing materializes an ancient frost sword in his grasp, swinging it with a look of strain, his actions deliberate and unhurried.

However, the sword's path freezes the void completely, spawning ice masses like towering peaks that radiate piercing cold.

As he swings onward, these void-icing mountains extend endlessly, forming a distant frozen ridge!

This technique swiftly disrupts Brahma Heaven's Fire God smoky blade attack.

The smoky blade collides with the ice masses, failing to shatter them as anticipated, but instead lodging inside, decelerating from lightning speed to a crawl.

Observing this, Brahma Heaven feels profound shock.

Before, arrogance swelled in him as he commanded the Celestial Fire Realm's forces, assuming the enemies retreated in dread of his might.

But in the armies' deadlock, after hearing Fei Bing's words, he knew it wasn't the case.

And now, clashing directly, Brahma Heaven instantly senses the opponents' dreadfulness, their power evidently exceeding his own.

His smoke blade has killed innumerably, its fumes able to bewilder the Primordial Spirit, always effective, but now it fails to breach the foe's guard.

"Thud thud thud!"

Brahma Heaven has no chance to reflect, as repeated sounds ring in his ears.

The arrows from his fire bow crossbow carry not merely fire and poison traits but also homing pursuit to evade barriers.

Just earlier, Brahma Heaven unleashed a hundred fire poison arrows, navigating the void, skirting the icy ridges, and aiming for the three enemies.

Surprisingly, the female cultivator in their group, her elegant hands gesturing as if plucking blooms, summons a lotus.

This lotus consists of divine needles blended from floral essences and heavenly iron, each as fine as a pin.

Once deployed, the divine needles disperse, each forming a petal silhouette; the void briefly flourishes with countless blooms, scents filling the air.

Each floral divine needle blocks a fire poison arrow from Brahma Heaven, obliterating them with ease.

"Sister Hua’s flower divine needles are stronger than before!" Fei Bing exclaimed.

Hua Jieyu ignores Fei Bing’s praise, saying instead, "Brother Qiu Daoyu, we have broken his attack, it’s your turn!"

Qiu Daoyu, dressed in robes like a sunset glow, responds shortly, "Leave it to me!"

With that, Qiu Daoyu abruptly fixes his gaze on Brahma Heaven.

Brahma Heaven stands inside the manifested Fire God.

Though his first two strikes failed, he believes they can't touch him.

After all, shielded within the Fire God, with elite spiritual treasure armor and his personal defensive robe, the three foes would struggle to pierce his protections.

Yet now, as one suddenly eyes him, oddly, the space ahead morphs into a duo of Dharma Eyes, and Brahma Heaven meets the stare without choice.

Eyes locking, Brahma Heaven senses a Primordial Spirit assault surging across the void toward him at once.

The Fire God’s armor and his defensive robe prove worthless; the enemy unleashes a Primordial Spirit strike.

Instantly, Brahma Heaven feels his Primordial Spirit slashed like by a scythe, reminiscent of harvest time when fields yield to reapers' blades.

"Clang clang!"

As the blow strikes Brahma Heaven, a sudden clang echoes in his Primordial Spirit, rousing him abruptly to sever the foe's Primordial Spirit link.

Qiu Daoyu shivers, then sighs to nearby Fei Bing and Hua Jieyu, "Sorry, I missed, the opponent has a Primordial Spirit defense artifact."

The two pause in surprise, Fei Bing saying, "No problem, with us three here, capturing him is merely a matter of time!"
