Yet another temporary powerup was already on the menu! The Demon King managed to resist Hellhound's attacks, ultimately crushing him into the ground and filling him with miasma. His roots and branches shapeshifted into gigantic fists that he used to punch the dog constantly.
Hellhound struggled to tank the hits. The body made of flames continued crumbling apart as he struggled to live. His eyes glaring with flames of conviction.
"For Planta and the Goddess Gaia, I'll sacrifice my life!"
He roared and spoke for the first time, his flames erupted from his body one last time, as a blazing explosion took over the entire Demon King's body, blowing him away into the floor!
B O O O O O O O O M M M M M!!!!
F L U O O O O O S S S H H H!
Hellhound's Infernal Flames began to spread into the Demon King's entire body, burning through him!
The Demon King struggled to regenerate. His Miasma continued trying to help him mitigate the damage, but half of his body began to crumble apart and turn to ashes.
As I finished fusing with Strawberry, Potato, and Tamamo, I flew towards the Demon King as fast as possible, charging power into my weapon.
And then, I saw the flames shape into the appearance of a small dog.
"Planta! Take my flames, he is very weak to them!"
"My visit here was brief. I will soon go back to my Realm of Fire. But take with you my flames, use them! I leave it up to you! Lord Ifrit has high expectations!"
Lord Ifrit… that must be the Great Spirit of Fire, perhaps?
"Hellhound… Your Spirit Flames won't be wasted, thank you for your sacrifice!"
I shed a small tear for not being able to help him in time, as I ran forward, extending my hand towards his flames, and letting them embrace me.
Using my spiritual power, I grasped them flames with my will and love, and compressed them into a sphere of flames, taking out the trident I made before, Poseidon, and several spirits that flew towards me, alongside several materials I had inside of my Inventory!
The elements, materials, and spirits converged together with Poseidon's lifeless body, filling him once more with power, but this time, a blazing one!
F L U O O O O S S S H!
Poseidon's enormous size remained but his blue and green colors changed to red and gold, with blazing spirit flames surging through its entire body, and wolf-like decorations all of its handle, while the tips of the trident's blades were in the shape of flames.
[You have merged [Hellhound's Infernal Spirit Flames] x1 + [Heaven Piercing Lightning Storm Trident Spirit Weapon: Poseidon] x1 + [Elemental Crystal Scales] x30 + [Red Elemental Crystal Shell] x2 + [Elemental Crystals] x30 + [Crystalized Soul Fragment] x20 + [Spiritual Fruits of the High Farm Spirit] x20 + [Spiritual Tubers of the High Farming Spirit] x20 + [Tamamo's Fox Tail] x1!]
All Spirit Materials converged together into a brand-new item!
Made from all these materials, into one!
[You have created the [Heaven Burning Infernal Cleansing Blazing Trident: Lucifer]!]
The enormous Trident, now named Lucifer, for some reason, erupted with infernal flames. Yet they didn't hurt me at all… I also saw the three spirits adding their essence into the weapon. Strawberry added her fruits, Potato his tubers, and Tamamo… her tail?
Well, whatever! This works!
"YOUUUUU… What sort of trick are you doing now?! I've been burned by these flames yet I stand here… Do you truly believe you can take me down when I have yet to fully merge my powers with the Tree of Beginnings?!" Roared the Demon King.
The root legs he had suddenly shapeshifted into giant, humanoid legs, as he stood up from the ground, his former size being dwarfed now as he reached over a hundred meters of height, looking down on me as an endless army of Miasmic Treants continued to emerge, fusing with his body to power him up.
"You may be pushing me, but as I fight more and suffer more, the more I adapt to my new body…" He smiled, distorting the former face the Tree of Beginnings had, as his enormous wooden arms shapeshifted into gigantic axes!
And then, using his gigantic size to his advantage, he attacked, swinging both of those gigantic axes at me! They were big yet slow, but so big they could traverse dozens of meters in seconds, reaching up to me in an instant!
"I'll beat you with the same Trident I beat you before… And my shovel, of course!"
I swung my shovel and my trident at the same time, my body growing enormous as I merged with Nature. The three High Farming Spirits aiding me with their powers!
The roots, trees, flowers, herbs, anything I created through my Terrain or that I purified through it continued merging with my body thanks to both the Skills such as Nature Assimilation and Plant Absorption and also the special Ability of the Spirits {One With Nature}!
My blazing trident clashed against the Demon King's enormous claws, as gigantic eruptions of flames reached the skies and covered everything with their blazing fury. The flames spread further into the body of the Demon King, burning through his bark. His miasma was trying to permeate his body to protect him, however, weakening my flames!
"GAHAHAHA! I've prepared for this! I knew you would use that dog's fire!"
Sadly for him, his Miasma would be simply purified, this fire was not just flames alone anymore, thanks to the various elements I used and other spirits, alongside the High Farm Spirit's own materials, this trident's flames have become something named Flames of Life!
F L U O O O O O S S S S H H H!!!
"UNGGH?! I-It hurts even more than before?! GRUUUUAAGGGGH…!"
