Chapter 489: The Reflection of the Crystal
Crystalline was a "gift" of the Crystal Demon Emperor. Tang San was always cautious about this little lifeform because he wasn\'t clear about what she truly was.
When Crystalline first hatched, she was his greatest aid in forming the Polar Luck Domain, and he was naturally grateful for that. But what was her relationship with the Crystal Demon Emperor? Why would they entrust her to an unknown element like Tang San?
He was always on guard and feared that the Crystal Demon Emperor, the foremost of the Demon Emperors, might pose a threat to him.
Crystalline had been sleeping since then, however, and her sudden awakening shocked him.
At that moment, Crystalline’s imprint suddenly brightened, like a crystal reflecting a sudden sunbeam. Tang San felt a strange sensation. The surrounding distorted light became clear again, and he could even sense the blood flowing within the Scorching Sunflower.
Among the many vines, there was one that released intense firepower. It injected a large amount of energy into the surrounding vines, unleashing it through the crimson sunflowers to attack.
What on earth is this? I can see that guy’s bloodline power flow!
Tang San\'s battle experience was extensive. He wouldn\'t miss such an opportunity. Sky Shatterer shot out instantly, propelled by the Lion-Tiger Golden Force at full blast, heading straight for the point where he sensed the core of the opponent’s bloodline power.
Immediately, as if panicking, many of the vines rapidly contracted to protect that point. At the same time, all the sunflowers shot fiery beams at Sky Shatterer, even neglecting to attack Tang San. This significantly reduced the pressure on Tang San.
"Daddy, hit it!" Crystalline\'s voice sounded again, and the shining crystal imprint glowed again, allowing Tang San to see the core of the Scorching Sunflower\'s rapidly shifting position.
Trying to run, are you?
The Godly Zhuge Crossbow was again in hand, loaded with a complete set of bolts. Assisted by the Golden Roc bloodline, the bolts shot out violently, directly covering the opponent\'s core. Meanwhile, Tang San pulled Sky Shatterer back with the Blue Silver Emperor vine, caught the hammer, and flung it out with explosive energy, using the Lion-Tiger Golden Force\'s repelling effect.
Beams of fire crisscrossed, trying to intercept the bolts. However, with the Golden Roc bloodline\'s augmentation, the bolts were so fast that before the fire beams were even shot out, they had already passed by, drilling into the numerous vines of the Scorching Sunflower.
A scream followed, and the intense firepower significantly weakened. Thanks to the repelling force it was imbued with, Sky Shatterer deflected the many fire beams striking it and headed straight for the core.
As it turned out, the Scorching Sunflower was a typical glass cannon.
It was extremely strong in attack, with attacks that covered all ranges and a wide area. The intense, pure yang fiery beams were so powerful that once an opponent was within range, all they could do was wait to be incinerated. However, its apparent invulnerability was just that—apparent. If its core was destroyed, it would die instantly.
Boom—
Numerous vines were blasted apart, and the nymph’s very own fire turned them ablaze. It was as if a fiery rain of light was falling from the sky.
The remaining vines retracted, and the sunflowers blooming from them withered immediately. Only then did Tang San notice the entire arena was riddled with holes, burnt with numerous gaps, and charred black.
"I surrender," sounded a somewhat helpless voice.
As the numerous vines converged inward, the humanoid body of the Scorching Sunflower reappeared in front of Tang San. All the vines and Scorching Sunflowers vanished. His face was terribly pale, and he was now holding Tang San\'s Sky Shatterer, clearly with some difficulty.
On the surface, it was hard to see how seriously he was injured, but his aura had significantly weakened.
Tang San didn\'t look much better. His clothes and hair were singed in many places, and he was panting heavily, with each breath accompanied by hot steam, showing just how fierce the opponent\'s flames had been.
If it weren\'t for Crystalline\'s timely assistance, Tang San would have had to use the Polar Luck Domain to fight. Only by using the Polar Luck Domain would he have had the confidence to defeat this opponent. This opponent was truly too strong.
"Can you tell me what material this hammer is made of?" The Scorching Sunflower contestant\'s voice was very pleasant. He looked shocked as he gazed at the hammer in his hand.
Tang San shook his head. He couldn\'t let anyone know the secret of the Heavenly Fire Essence Iron.
"I can trade with you. Tell me what you want. I can offer a high price if you\'re willing to sell."
The Scorching Sunflower seemed quite eager.
Tang San\'s mouth twitched. Your Sunborne Nymph Emperor even sold a petal of its own flower. How much could you possibly offer?
"Can you afford it? This is more or less a divine weapon," Tang San said.
"Uh..." As expected, the opponent fell silent. Scratching his head, he said, "Can you give me a way to contact you? I\'ll go back and discuss it first."
"I\'ll be here participating in individual and double match competitions. You can come find me," Tang San replied.
"Alright, here you go." As he spoke, the Scorching Sunflower tossed Sky Shatterer back to Tang San, looking reluctant. It was clear that the reluctance was not related to the match, however; he was just very interested in Tang San\'s hammer.
"Oh, by the way, how did you find my solar core? There’s no way it was that easy! I thought I hid it very well. Forget about spiritual power, even if you had divine consciousness, you still couldn’t see it just like that. How did you do it?"
"If I said it was luck, would you believe me?" Tang San replied helplessly. The opponent sure had a lot of questions.
He was also incredibly powerful. In fact, Tang San still felt like his insides were burning. He wouldn\'t have held out if not for the yin-yang energy adjusting the energy flow and calming down the heat. If he happened to face a Scorching Sunflower in the future, he had to attack immediately and not let them grow all their vines and sunflowers; otherwise, it would be too difficult.
"To be honest, no. But to be honest, I also can’t find any other explanation, so maybe you really were lucky." The Scorching Sunflower seemed troubled. "Well, alright, I\'ll find you later. By the way, what\'s your name? I\'m Xing Shi."
"I\'m Asura," Tang San replied.
"The match is over. You can leave now. Group Three Number Six wins," the referee, who had been listening for a while, finally announced. He would have shooed them off the stage earlier if not for one of them being a Scorching Sunflower and the other earning such a surprising victory.
"See you later. I need to go back and figure out how I lost. This isn\'t possible, not possible at all..." Xing Shi muttered to himself as he left the stage.
Tang San walked off the stage, feeling rather weak. The heat inside his body was unbearable. He took out a new set of clothes, quickly put them on, and tidied his slightly scorched hair. His mouth twitched. Thankfully, he had a mask to cover his face. Otherwise, he\'d look terrible in front of Mei Gongzi.
The Scorching Sunflower clan was truly a powerful clan! Without Crystalline\'s help, defeating them today without using his divine consciousness would have required revealing some of the abilities that he very much wanted to keep hidden.
