160 The Dark Elemental Core
“Heh…”
At this moment, the Black Sun sneered. Then, it flapped its wings again—at the Flame Owl.
The Flame Owl was not afraid, it spread its wings and welcomed the attack.
Boom!
The two of them collided again, and another explosion rang out. This time, neither side had the upper hand.
Jitter!
The Black Sun was furious. It then opened its mouth and let out a sharp cry.
In the next moment, the countless Black Flame balls in the air suddenly surged toward the Black Sun from all directions, quickly forming a huge black sphere. This new black construction was more than thirty meters tall, like a massive tower.
“Roar!”
Following the Black Sun’s roar, the black tower instantly moved to envelop Shen Fei, Aloy, and Qian Yu. The tower contained violent dark elements, causing the air to distort.
The tower did not stop and continued to spread.
“Quickly, run!” Seeing this, Aloy’s expression changed, and she quickly fled.
As for Shen Fei, he clenched his teeth and ran as well. Qian Yu followed suit.
Whoosh! The black tower was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it caught up to Shen Fei and the others, and wrapped them within it.
Fwoop! The black tower trembled violently, and the space inside shook as well.
Hiss… Traces of black mist emerged from the black ball tower and enveloped Shen Fei and the others. This black mist was extremely corrosive. Even if Shen Fei and the others used their true Qi to block it, they would not be able to hold on for long.
“What is this tower made of? Why is it so terrifying?” Shen Fei was filled with doubt.
This black tower was completely made of refined iron, and was extremely sturdy. Moreover, it contained a rich amount of dark elements. These dark elements were constantly eroding their true Qi. The area became filled with black smoke and the smell of sulfur. It was extremely pungent.
Moreover, the space inside the black tower was very narrow. Other than the position where the Black Sun was, the rest of the space was filled with gaps.
“Dammit!” Their clothes were already stained with thick black dust.
Right then, the Black Sun suddenly flapped its wings and jumped out of the tower. It stood atop the black tower and looked down at everyone. The corners of the Black Sun’s mouth curled up in a mocking smile.
“What is it doing?” Qian Yu was surprised, unsure of what it was planning.
The Black Sun looked down at Shen Fei and the rest. It opened its mouth and spat out a ball of scorching flames. The ball of fire blazed with destructive power.
Seeing this, Aloy shouted in panic, “Sh*t! We have to dodge it!”
“Be careful!” Shen Fei quickly pulled Aloy aside.
The three of them managed to dodge it quickly. The flames brushed past them and scorched the floor.
Whoosh!
After the flames flew by, Shen Fei and the rest heaved a sigh of relief.
“Coo. coo!”
The Flame Owl saw the attack and immediately let out an angry screech.
“Graar!” The Black Sun also let out a strange cry, as if it was also provoking it.
In the next second, the Black Sun flapped its wings again and brought the black balls careening toward the Flame Owl.
“Flame Owl, dodge them!”
Against these dense black balls, the Flame Owl flapped its wings constantly, trying to avoid the onslaught. However, the attack range of these black balls was extremely wide. As such, their attacks continued to land on the Flame Owl’s body, causing fierce collisions.
In the end, the Flame Owl was knocked to the ground by the violent collision.
The Black Sun then rushed in front of the three of them. It immediately extended its sharp talons and tried to grab them. Its sharp talons displayed their razor edge and cold sheen, looking like they could easily tear through all matter.
“Three-clawed Golden Dragon, Dark Spirit Intimidation!” Shen Fei quickly shouted.
A ray of golden light lit up between his eyebrows. Then, a ferocious Three-clawed Golden Dragon appeared out of thin air and charged toward the Black Sun.
“Roar!”
The massive dragon roared toward the sky. Its voice was so deafening that everyone felt like their souls were trembling.
The giant dragon charged at the Black Sun, and the exotic beast let out a miserable howl as its body suddenly fell to the ground.
“Gra…rr…”
The Black Sun struggled, trying to get up. However, the Three-clawed Golden Dragon’s terrifying pressure made it difficult to move. In the end, a part of its body slowly shriveled up and gradually withered.
Gloop, gloop…
Something liquid was flowing out of its body, and soon, the Black Sun’s stomach completely melted, turning into a pool of black water.
At the same time, a black crystal core fell out. It was the Black Sun’s core! Furthermore, Shen Fei also discovered that within this core was a dense dark element.
[A dark elemental core has been detected. It can level up the Flame Owl, do you wish to proceed?]
‘This core is an upgrade item?’ Shen Fei’s face was filled with joy as he immediately nodded. “Upgrade!”
Then, the Flame Owl stood on the ground and flapped its wings, wanting to eat the dark elemental core.
Shen Fei nodded and said, “Go on, eat it.”
In the next second, the Flame Owl finished the dark elemental core in one gulp. The Flame Owl’s bright red feathers became visibly darker, and a blazing flame burned all over its body. The temperature of this flame was so high that it distorted the surrounding environment slightly, producing faint white smoke.
After the Flame Owl’s strength broke through, its eyes became even brighter. Moreover, its body was faintly suffused with a faint purple glow.
“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge.” Shen Fei said in a low voice.
The Flame Owl let out an excited cry and immediately pounced toward the Black Sun.
Rumble!
Like a force of nature, the Flame Owl spread its wings. It brought with it roiling flames as it charged toward the Black Sun.
However, the Black Sun was not to be outdone.
“Graar!”
It opened its mouth and spat out a ball of Black Flames.
The surrounding temperature suddenly rose with all these flames, and even the ground became scorched.
Boom!
The two balls of fire collided. Sparks flew in all directions, and terrifying energy waves swept outward in an instant. The entire tower shook violently.
As for the Black Sun, it was overwhelmed by that powerful energy wave. It fell from the sky and crashed into the ruined tower below.
Thud!
As soon as the Black Sun landed on the ground, a dull and loud sound was heard. Its body caved in a little. There were dozens of cracks all over the Black Sun’s body, and even pieces of gravel slid down and covered the Black Sun.
When Shen Fei saw this, he looked solemnly at the tower ruins.
Crack!
The ruins suddenly collapsed, and dust flew everywhere.
