Chapter 143: Teammates Are Shocked Again

"Fiery Fist: Exploding Heavens!"

As Mo Fan shouted, flames ignited around him, forming a fiery ring. Even his hair seemed to turn into flickering flames, and on his fist, an intense blue and brown fire blazed fiercely!

With Little Flame Belle now officially at the Commander level, along with his own strength at the advanced second-tier level and the combined power of the tribulation flame and the blue flame, taking down this small Crimson Split Demon was a piece of cake!

He threw a punch toward the Crimson Split Demon, and a massive fiery fist shot forward with the momentum of a falling meteor, forming a blazing trail as it flew through the air.

"Boom!!!"

Sensing the immense power of the punch, the Crimson Split Demon quickly summoned a thin layer of water to defend itself, but it was utterly ineffective against the force of Mo Fan's Fist of Destruction. The raging flames engulfed the Crimson Split Demon, sending it flying. It landed and slid a great distance, leaving a long trail of scorched earth and fire in the frozen forest.

Seeing this, Ai Jiangtu was momentarily stunned.

Meanwhile, Nan Jue commented, "He's got this. Let's handle the Scarlet Rending Demons."

Having witnessed Mo Fan taking down the three-headed snake demon before, Nan Jue knew he had grown even stronger since. Dealing with the Crimson Split Demon alone would be no problem for him.

Ai Jiangtu nodded, and they shifted their focus to the Scarlet Rending Demons nearby.

The Crimson Split Demon staggered back to its feet, grabbing a handful of ice to wipe off the lingering flames, but the combination of the tribulation flame and blue flame couldn't be easily extinguished by mere ice.

"Roar!!!"

The Crimson Split Demon howled in fury as Mo Fan's hand glowed with a golden light, forming a large sword. Without hesitation, Mo Fan charged forward with the radiant sword.

"Whoosh!"

The Crimson Split Demon also erupted in speed, transforming into a blur of red light and charging at Mo Fan, aiming a powerful punch at his head!

As a Commander-level demon, its strength was formidable. A single punch from it could shatter even solid rock. The destructive red fist locked onto Mo Fan, but Mo Fan responded by slashing with his sword!

"Clang!"

"Swoosh!"

The clash between Mo Fan and the Crimson Split Demon was intense, and the demon was once again sent flying, tumbling and crashing into the ground.

"Crash!!!"

This time, the Crimson Split Demon was in even worse shape. It noticed that its sharp claws had developed cracks.

"Roar!!!"

At this moment, the Crimson Split Demon realized that Mo Fan was no easy target. It hesitated, seemingly deciding to flee.

"Shadow Nails: Shadow Star Array!"

But Mo Fan could see through its intentions. There was no way he would let it escape. After all, this was an important target! The bounty from Chongming Island hadn't been settled yet, and he needed the money! No one could stop him from killing this Crimson Split Demon.

The dark binding spell was only temporary, but for Mo Fan, temporary was all he needed.

"Solar Corona!"

The light from Mo Fan and the fire from Little Flame Belle combined in a spectacular display.

When dealing with a Commander-level creature, Mo Fan aimed to eliminate it in one strike without wasting any of his magical energy. Back on the Bridge of Life and Death, this same attack had the power to annihilate a true Commander-level foe. Now, even without the element of suppression, the combined power of his dual soul flames and the unique light magic made Mo Fan's strike far stronger than any normal advanced mage could achieve!

"Swoosh!"

The blade was no longer just a sword formed from his soul shadow. In Mo Fan's hands, it slashed out with immense power. The Crimson Split Demon broke free from the shadow bind, but it had no chance to escape. Mo Fan's sword was already aimed at its head and came crashing down.

"Roar!!!"

The Crimson Split Demon roared in fury, frantically casting spells—shooting strange beams of light and summoning water pillars from the ground.

However, when Mo Fan's blazing sword came down, all of these spells were rendered useless, evaporating into nothing in the searing heat.

"Boom!!!"

The moment the sword fully slashed down, the entire frozen area shattered into pieces, and the Crimson Split Demon was sent crashing into the sea!

"Splash~~~!!!"

Due to the intense heat, even though Mu Ningxue's ice magic was still freezing the area, it had no effect on this particular spot.

The violent commotion caught the attention of everyone in the distance.

Though they were fighting a larger number of enemies, the fierce battle between Mo Fan and the Crimson Split Demon drew the attention of many of the Scarlet Rending Demons and sea monkey monsters, causing them to pause and look in Mo Fan's direction.

Unfortunately for them, Mo Fan's battlefield had already become a sea. Even Mu Ningxue's freezing power couldn't cover it in time.

"Boom!!!"

"Splash!!!"

Just then, the waves exploded upward, and Mo Fan's figure emerged from the water.

With fiery wings on his back, Mo Fan flew up, and as he did, silver light flickered in his hand. In the next moment, the corpse of the Crimson Split Demon was tossed onto the shore.

The essence of the Crimson Split Demon was worth a lot of money, and even its corpse had a value of over ten million.

Seeing the body of the Crimson Split Demon, all the Scarlet Rending Demons and sea monkey monsters trembled in fear. Many of them turned and tried to flee.

After all, if even a Commander-level demon could be slain by Mo Fan, how could they possibly stand a chance?

Noticing their retreat, Mo Fan flapped his fiery wings and transformed into a streaking fireball, pursuing them.

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh!!!"

"Slash slash slash!!!"

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Unlike the others who fought from a distance, or like Guan Yu who would sneak in a quick attack and retreat, Mo Fan dove straight into the horde of monsters. His sword, formed from soul fire, easily cut down Scarlet Rending Demons and sea monkey monsters one after the other.

Within moments, the battlefield was engulfed in flames, with forty or fifty Scarlet Rending Demons and hundreds of sea monkey monsters reduced to ashes.

"Is this guy really the same age as us?" someone asked in disbelief.

With Mo Fan taking over, the others quickly finished up the remaining enemies. For a moment, everyone stood there, dumbfounded.

When someone asked the question, Mu Nujiao instinctively nodded and said, "Yes he is."

Mo Fan was indeed the same age as them. She had seen his ID and knew all his details.

"He's way too strong!" Guan Yu gulped.

"Guan Yu, I think it's better if you don't provoke him anymore," suggested Zu Jiming, visibly shaken.

Guan Yu's face darkened, and he didn't say a word.

At that moment, those who didn't know Mo Fan all shared the same thought: Which great force raised this monster of a mage?

After all, they had only just started this mission, and nobody truly knew each other yet.

Mu Ningxue, who had stopped freezing the battlefield, looked at Mo Fan as he slaughtered the Scarlet Rending Demons and sea monkey monsters. Her expression became somewhat blank.

So strong!

At some point, she had felt that they no longer belonged in the same world.

Perhaps she wasn't wrong, but it wasn't her who was on a higher level—it was him.
