Ouyang Lie pulled Lu Yu away just in time, and within seconds, the Profound Water Array that trapped the Fire Spirit King was shattered. The furious Fire Spirit King's fiery spiritual energy churned violently, forming a fire phoenix that swooped down towards the three people hundreds of meters away.
The Fire Spirit King's all-out attack caused the fire phoenix to explode into flames upon landing, engulfing an area of nearly a hundred meters. The Martial Cultivators tangled with the three who stole the sacred artifact were reduced to ashes in the flames, with no chance to resist.
Amidst the raging flames, three blue light spheres enveloped the figures of the trio. After enduring the most intense phase of the attack, the protective shields shattered, and their figures emerged from the flames.
The little Fire Spirit boy holding the sacred artifact was incinerated in the previous strike, turning to ash. The sacred artifact and fire crystal stone fell to the ground.
