AWB Chapter 170 Flame Stone Man
Chapter 170 Flame Stone Man
Thanks to Liu Rumei's three-colored rat, Ye Xiaobai was able to successfully pass through the maze.
Isn't this the fire gate? Where's the fire? The entire path is paved with stone slabs; I haven't seen a single spark of fire.
Just as Ye Xiaobai was wondering, a stone figure made up of seven or eight stones suddenly appeared in front of him.
It is black in color and about three meters tall.
"Why is it still a puppet? A stone puppet?" Ye Xiaobai couldn't help but complain.
"Be careful! It doesn't seem that simple!" Liu Rumei warned.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaobai immediately stared intently at the stone man, and then discovered that the originally black stone man's body color had changed from black to red, and then its entire body burst into flames.
So the fire in the Fire Gate is this flaming stone golem!
As the fiery stone golem burned fiercely, the temperature in the space where Ye Xiaobai and Liu Rumei were quickly rising. Ye Xiaobai dared not be careless and released a water shield to resist the heat wave.
Liu Rumei also took out an ice-attribute magic weapon, the Frost Staff, and held it in front of her.
Before the two could react, the fire stone golem pounced on them.
Ye Xiaobai immediately dodged. He knew he would have no chance against the powerful attack of the fire stone golem.
Even if he could withstand the attack, Ye Xiaobai couldn't withstand the scorching flames. If the flames touched his body, he would definitely suffer severe burns.
While dodging, Ye Xiaobai did not forget to release a sword technique to test the strength of the fire stone golem.
"Clouds swirl and dragons soar!"
Immediately, the red dragon, carrying sword intent, swept towards the location of the flaming stone golem.
In the blink of an eye, the dragon vanished without a trace as soon as it made contact with the fire stone golem, without causing the fire stone golem any harm.
"Ye Xiaobai, switch to a different cultivation technique. Fire-attribute techniques are useless!" Liu Rumei reminded him from the side.
Upon hearing Liu Rumei's reminder, Ye Xiaobai immediately felt embarrassed. His most powerful technique was a fire-attribute technique, which was now useless against the fire stone golem.
Ye Xiaobai suddenly realized that he had mastered too few techniques, and he would definitely be at a disadvantage when facing techniques of the same attribute.
You only realize how little you know when you need it, and you only realize you're not prepared with your weapons when facing the enemy in battle.
Fortunately, Ye Xiaobai had other methods—spirit beasts and puppets.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaobai immediately released the Purple Flame Thunder Leopard.
"Zishan, it's up to you now!"
"No problem!" Zishan roared, then lunged at the fire stone golem.
Ye Xiaobai took the opportunity to dodge the battle's blast radius, leaving the battlefield to Zishan and Liu Rumei.
Seeing that Ye Xiaobai wasn't fighting but instead stayed far away, Liu Rumei showed a hint of displeasure. However, considering that Ye Xiaobai was only at the late Foundation Establishment stage,
This puppet is already at the seventh level, which is equivalent to the strength of a late-stage Core Formation cultivator.
Faced with such a powerful enemy, she could only rely on herself. With that thought, Liu Rumei desperately circulated her spiritual power and used the Frost Staff to release icy energy, thereby destroying the flames on the Flame Stone Golem.
"The Ice Serpent Dances!"
As Liu Rumei continuously poured spiritual power into the Ice Staff, an ice snake as thick as a water bucket shot straight towards the direction where the fire stone golem was located.
At this moment, Ye Xiaobai wanted to stay far away, but unexpectedly, the fire stone man seemed to have intelligence and continued to swing his huge fire fist, smashing it towards Ye Xiaobai's location.
"Ye Xiaobai, be careful!" Liu Rumei hurriedly reminded Ye Xiaobai to watch out for the attack from the fire golem.
"You beast! All you do is bully those who are weak!" Ye Xiaobai cursed, while frantically moving around, not wanting to experience the taste of the Fire Fist.
As soon as Ye Xiaobai regained his footing, he saw that a fire pit the size of a well had appeared where he had been not long ago.
That fiery fist is truly powerful! If I were to take a punch from it, I would either die or be crippled!
Seeing that Ye Xiaobai was alright, Liu Rumei, who was not far away, felt relieved. She was going to refine pills later, but now that he was injured, it would delay her pill refining.
"Ye Xiaobai, stand back and don't get in my way!" Liu Rumei shouted loudly at Ye Xiaobai.
"I want to too, but this guy keeps staring at me! You need to take care of it quickly!" Ye Xiaobai said helplessly.
"Cut the nonsense!"
Subsequently, with the combined efforts of Liu Rumei and the Purple Flame Thunder Leopard, they barely managed to hit the Flame Stone Golem.
As a large amount of icy energy surged into the Flame Golem's body, the flames on its body slowly extinguished.
The stone golem, now devoid of flame, immediately stopped moving. Upon seeing this, Ye Xiaobai and Liu Rumei were overjoyed, having finally resolved the troublesome flame stone golem.
Just as the two were about to relax and take a good rest, Ye Xiaobai suddenly noticed a purple light flash from a purple stone behind the stone golem.
Flames immediately spread from behind the stone man, and in the blink of an eye, the entire stone man was engulfed in flames again.
"Oh no, we haven't completely dealt with this fire golem yet!" Ye Xiaobai quickly reminded him.
Seeing the stone golem reignite, Liu Rumei couldn't help but worry. She had already exhausted more than half of her spiritual energy, and if she couldn't deal with the fiery stone golem in time, she wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
Looking at Ye Xiaobai, who was completely powerless in the distance, Liu Rumei knew that she couldn't rely on him and had to find a way to break through his defenses as soon as possible, otherwise she would have to retreat.
Ye Xiaobai knew that the current situation was not optimistic. However, Ye Xiaobai observed that there was no formation similar to the one in the square around the stone golem, which meant that there were other places to break the flame stone golem.
That purple stone behind the Flame Stone Golem! Seeing Ye Xiaobai fighting with the Purple Flame Thunder Leopard, who was standing behind the Flame Stone Golem, he quickly realized that the purple stone was unusual.
At this moment, the flames covering the entire flaming stone were red, while the flame in the center of its back was purple. Originally, it was thought that this purple stone was just an ordinary, unknown rock.
Unexpectedly, this might be the weakness of the Flame Golem.
"Fairy Liu, the stone golem's weakness is in its back!" Ye Xiaobai directly reminded Liu Rumei to attack the stone golem's back.
"Behind him?" Liu Rumei had been facing the stone man head-on and hadn't paid much attention to what was behind him.
However, Ye Xiaobai had already pointed out that the weakness was behind the stone golem, and Liu Rumei quickly took advantage of the fierce battle between the Flame Stone Golem and the Purple Flame Thunder Leopard to flank the stone golem from behind.
When Liu Rumei saw the dazzling purple flames behind the flaming stone golem, she immediately understood everything!
"Ye Xiaobai, you're still somewhat useful!" Liu Rumei said with a smile.
"What do you mean by 'calculate'? Isn't this all thanks to my good eyesight?" Ye Xiaobai said unconvinced.
Liu Rumei ignored Ye Xiaobai and then controlled the Frost Staff to release icy energy to attack the Flame Stone Golem's weak point again.
In a short while, with the help of the Purple Flame Thunder Leopard, Liu Rumei destroyed the purple stone behind the stone man, and the originally tall stone man immediately turned into a pile of small stones.
At the same time, Mu Jiuling and other cultivators heading towards the Water Gate also passed through the maze and engaged in a fierce battle with a water-attribute crab.
