Chapter 1460: Three Soul-grade Fires!
Translated by XephiZ

The difference between the Super Level and Advanced Level was unbelievably huge. No Advanced Mage had ever stood a chance against a Super Mage. Mu Xumian fixed her eyes on Mo Fan. She did not understand why the blue flames had not burned him to ashes!
“Ardent Sunset, Calamity Fire, Meteor Scarlet!” Mo Fan ruthlessly unleashed his three Soul-grade Fires. The Domains of Ardent Sunset and Calamity Fire stood out sharply; anyone could see two different colors filling the area within five hundred meters of Mo Fan. Fire Magic, floating like feathers, was totally visible in the area. The energy particles were on standby, waiting to take orders from Mo Fan!
The Meteor Scarlet’s Domain was not formed yet. It was not because it did not have a Domain, but because it needed some time to be shaped and refined. The faint ring of scarlet fire under Mo Fan’s feet still showed that its level was not inferior to the other two Soul-grade Flames!
Mo Fan’s aura skyrocketed when the three Soul-grade Fires appeared. The ferocious flames from Flame Belle Empress bestowed upon him an imperious demeanor!
“Sky-Flame Funeral: Thousand Burning Petals!”
Mo Fan cast the third-tier Advanced Fire Spell. Flames poured down from the sky in the form of flowers, setting the sky ablaze like a burning sea of petals. The blossoms fell like scented, burning rain!
The Meteor Scarlet had a special ability; the friction produced when the flames were streaking through the air would further strengthen the flames and their impact, so even a tiny burning petal could result in massive destruction!
Thousands of fiery petals were pouring down like a meteor shower, bombarding the area Mu Xumian was in.
Mu Xumian did not place too much attention on the Advanced Spell, but immediately regretted it when she realized the damage was several times higher than a normal Advanced Spell under the three Soul-grade Flames!
Each petal blossomed into a destructive fire lily when it landed on the ground, stacking on top of one another. Their terrifying explosions turned the streets into a scorched land pitted by holes and ravines…
Mu Xumian was shielded by her blue flames, yet her clothes were now ragged. She was panting heavily.
She clenched her teeth. Normally, she could defend herself with the Water Element, but in a place like this, she could only use her Blue Demon Flame for defense, putting her in an unfavorable position.
The Fire Element was not known for its defense. A Mage’s Fire Resistance was solely dependent on their Fire Seed. Even though her cultivation was higher than Mo Fan’s, he obviously had better Soul-grade Fire than she did!
Her Blue Demon Flame was at most comparable to Ardent Sunset!
“Fire Slash!”
Mo Fan had merged with the Flame Belle Empress, so he no longer had to rely on Stars to cast his spells. He launched himself at Mu Xumian like a missile, giving her no chance to catch her breath. His hand turned into a fiery sword, which he flung at Mu Xumian. A wave of scorching flames pounced forward and filled the gash in the street she was standing in.
Mu Xumian quickly backed away, dodging the powerful slash from Mo Fan. She pinched her finger like she was threading a needle. A dark brown light flickered swiftly amid the flames…
Mo Fan was about to chase after Mu Xumian when he noticed the flicker of light. He quickly dodged aside!
“Running away already?” Mu Xumian giggled. She flung her hands out, pulling on a string of silk, tightening every other thread tied to it!
Mo Fan’s response was extremely quick, but he still failed to escape from the brown poisonous silk woven like a spiderweb, covering a huge area. Mo Fan had just dodged to the side when another spiderweb of poisonous silk sealed off his escape route. At the same time, poisonous silk came down from above, trapping Mo Fan within the web!
“Black Snake Armor!” Mo Fan knew he did not have a chance to break free from the Super Level Poison Trap, and immediately activated his Magic Armor!
The poisonous silk landed on him despite the layers of flames around him, the paralyzing stuff penetrating into his body. The Black Snake Armor barely stopped the poison from spreading any further in time.
Since the Black Totem Snake was the ancestor of poison, his scales were very effective at isolating poison. Mo Fan had gone through numerous battles, and did not have trouble handling her poison attack.
The poisonous silk was designed to apply contact poison to a target, not to bind them. As Mo Fan stopped the poison with his armor, the flames of Ardent Sunset surged angrily, burning the poisonous silk to ashes.
The poisonous silk covered a huge area, but the flames of Ardent Sunset were very effective against insects. Mu Xumian’s poisonous silk covered nearly a square kilometer, with more than a thousand strings scattered across the air and ground. As the ring of Ardent Sunset flames expanded, the poisonous silk was set on fire and burned to ashes.
Mu Xumian clenched her teeth when she saw the poisonous silk she had set up being taken care of in an instant!
“Gates of Hell!”
Mu Xumian changed her approach again. She immediately engulfed herself in blue flames and Summoned the Gates of Hell again.
Two Gates of Hell eight hundred meters apart emerged again, with Mo Fan placed between them once more. A flood of blue flame went right at Mo Fan with a deafening roar!
“Blink!”
Mo Fan had long prepared for the attack. His figure vanished into thin air, reappearing a hundred meters straight up.
He looked down and saw the liquid flames flowing between the gates like an unstoppable fiery dragon, imperious and terrifying!
“How naive!” Mu Xumian grinned coldly as she locked eyes on Mo Fan, who was now floating in the air.
Two more Gates of Hell appeared, one above Mo Fan’s head and the other below his feet! The two Gates of Hell were facing one another, swirls of fire surging on their surfaces, waiting to unleash their wrath!
“Die!” Mu Xumian grunted. A surge of lava poured down from above, knocking Mo Fan fiercely to the ground!
The ravening blast lasted for quite some time. Mo Fan had no idea the Gates of Hell could appear anywhere. His skin had blistered after being struck by the Blue Demon Flames, and the pain of being inundated by them was torturous!
Luckily, his Fire Resistance was outstanding when he was Possessed by Little Flame Belle. Otherwise, he would have burnt to ashes within a second!
“Damn it, if only Meteor Scarlet has taken shape, I would have a chance against this b**ch with three Soul-grade Flames!” Mo Fan cursed as he rose to his feet, his face black with soot.
Meteor Scarlet was not fully shaped and refined yet, so he could not utilize its true potential. After all, he had just acquired the Soul-grade Fire in its embryo form, so it could only provide him limited control and power. He was facing Mu Xumian with the Flame Belle Empress’ power!
Mo Fan was unmatched in the Advanced Level. He could eliminate opponents of the same level with a spell or two, but when going up against a Super Mage, it was quite impressive that his bones were still intact after the first round!
If Zhao Manyan could use his Elements, he could resist a few of the attacks in Mo Fan’s place. They would have a slight chance of defeating her. Unfortunately, Elemental Magic other than the Fire Element was not available here…
The Super Level was indeed very strong!
“How tenacious are you? I didn’t expect a Fire Spirit could grant a Fire Mage such outstanding power! It’s a great waste for a mere Advanced Mage like you to keep her!” Mu Xumian sneered disdainfully as she approached Mo Fan.
Mo Fan was like a monster, enduring her Super Spells several times. She now understood why Qi Shan had asked her to be careful!
“Is it too late to beg for mercy now?” Mo Fan asked.
“Hehe, where’s your integrity now?” Mu Xumian came closer on her silver heels. Despite her giggling, she had still locked her magic on Mo Fan. It was the same Super Level spell, the Gates of Hell; one was on Mo Fan’s left, and one on his right, once again around eight hundred meters apart.
Blue flames were flowing restlessly within the gates. Mo Fan was no longer able to dodge the spell in his current state. Mu Xumian’s actions had already answered his question.
An Advanced Fire Mage with three kinds of Soul-grade Fire and a Fire Spirit blessed by nature; Flame Belle was already a threat to her, even though she was a Super Mage. How could Mu Xumian possibly not eliminate such a threat when she had the chance?
Luckily, they had discovered Mo Fan’s capabilities in time. If they had allowed him to grow further, Heaven knew how strong of an enemy of the Mu Clan Mo Fan would become!
“I can consider leaving your corpse intact if you beg for mercy now!” Mu Xumian said coldly.
Her words were like a death sentence. The burning river surged out of the Gates of Hell, trampling the peaceful ancient city like an evil blue dragon!
Mo Fan’s tiny figure was devoured by the flames. This time, Mu Xumian did not believe he would be able to survive the flames. She stared at the blue flames, grinning widely!
She loved her blue flames; the Blue Demon Flame was very pleasing to her eyes, especially when it was devouring lives!
“It’s your fault for being such a showoff, you never learned how to keep a low profile!” Mu Xumian yelled at the flames mercilessly.
Mu Xumian slowly turned around after remaining there for a while. She looked after the others, who were now hiding. The city was not big, and half of it was already destroyed by her flames. Where else could they run to?
“Stop wasting my time, or I’ll be even madder,” Mu Xumian shouted in the direction Zhao Manyan and the others were hiding.
As she finished her sentence, a wisp of candlelight slowly floated down about ten meters away from her.
Mu Xumian did not place too much attention on it. She thought it was just something that Mo Fan had left behind, but her expression shifted when she sensed a terrifying energy rumbling inside it!
