High above the clouds of Leaf Green City, where the thin atmospheric wind howled like a dying beast, the air turned instantly bone-dry and suffocatingly hot.
Huo Yue reached into her storage ring and pulled out a dark crimson ruler, its surface forged from ancient star-core iron and inscribed with complex flame runes that pulsed with living heat.
She gripped the hilt tightly, her heavenly flames flaring out in a hundred-meter aura of incineration as she charged forward, clashing directly with the colossal, dragon-armored form of Shui Yi.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM—!!!!!
The crimson ruler slammed against the towering energy spear held by Shui Yi's fused Dragon-Carp Spirit Avatar.
The kinetic detonation produced a visible, circular shockwave that blew away every cloud within a five-mile radius, leaving a completely barren, blue vault of open sky.
Shui Yi's face twisted with sheer shock as the violent impact shook the heavy frame of his beast.
