"You want to keep me here? You alone aren't enough!" Shen Haoran wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes. He then extended his palms, and two masses of Spiritual Power—one black, one yellow, both concentrated to the extreme—slowly materialized.

"Those are... Heaven and Earth Spirits!" Ouyang Feng exclaimed, sensing the two masses of pure Spiritual Power in Shen Haoran's hands. A greedy look immediately flashed through his eyes. Heaven and Earth Spirits held a fatal allure for any Martial Artist. For Shen Haoran to have obtained two of them on his own... such luck made even Ouyang Feng intensely jealous.

But before any thoughts of snatching them could fully form in Ouyang Feng's mind, his expression changed drastically. He watched in horror as Shen Haoran actually slammed the two Heaven and Earth Spirits together. It was common knowledge that every type of Heaven and Earth Spirit was unique and extremely repulsive to others. The Energy released when two of them collided would be on a destructive level!

BOOM!

A series of rumbles echoed from Shen Haoran's hands. This time, in fusing the Fire Spirit Black Obsidian and the Earth Spirit Profound Nether, Shen Haoran didn't use the Power of Chaos to mediate them. What he wanted was precisely the Power of Destruction generated by their mutual repulsion! He enveloped the two Spirit Seeds of the Heaven and Earth Spirits with his immense Spiritual Thought, constantly searching for a balance between them. The remaining Spiritual Power in his body flooded into the two great Heaven and Earth Spirits in his hands as if it were free, attempting to force them to merge.

Although Shen Haoran had used the Flame Sun Burst before, that was merely a fusion of ordinary Spiritual Power. What he held in his hands now were Heaven and Earth Spirits. The difficulty of fusing them was hard to imagine! Shen Haoran continuously squeezed out the Spiritual Power from every cell in his body, pouring it ceaselessly into the two great Heaven and Earth Spirits.

BOOM!

The two great Heaven and Earth Spirits in Shen Haoran's hands refused to obey his command, repelling each other violently. The stray Energy that escaped blasted open the webbing between his thumb and forefinger, revealing the stark white of bone beneath. Blood instantly dyed his entire palm red.

Shen Haoran gritted his teeth, forcing the two Spirit Seeds of the Heaven and Earth Spirits toward each other. To escape from Ouyang Feng today, he had to fuse them and unleash the Flame Sun Burst. Otherwise, death was the only way out! Besides, Shen Haoran was already in a position where he couldn't back down. If the fusion failed this time, the leaking Energy from the two great Heaven and Earth Spirits would be enough to kill him dozens of times over. At a moment like this, the Heaven and Earth Spirits made no distinction between friend or foe!

The two great Heaven and Earth Spirits in Shen Haoran's hands drew closer and closer. A destructive power began to emanate from his palms, silencing even the Gang Wind that raged perpetually in the area. Not far away, Ouyang Feng felt this power, and a tremor went through his heart. If Shen Haoran actually succeeded in condensing such terrifying Energy, even he wasn't confident he could block it! 'This Shen Haoran... he actually had an ace up his sleeve like this!'

'I absolutely cannot let Shen Haoran fuse those two Heaven and Earth Spirits together!' Ouyang Feng thought. His figure flashed, and he shot toward Shen Haoran. He condensed dark Spiritual Power in his hand and thrust it toward Shen Haoran's chest!

Shen Haoran had no time to spare for Ouyang Feng's attack. His gaze was fixed on the two masses of Heaven and Earth Spirits in his hands, his pupils dilated and his eyes filled with bloodshot veins. His hands were trembling violently. His condition told him that he had reached his limit!

"Fuse for me!" Just as Ouyang Feng's attack was about to land, a low, muffled roar erupted from Shen Haoran's throat. He then squeezed out the last dregs of his Spiritual Thought from his Sea of Consciousness and poured it all into the two masses of Heaven and Earth Spirits in his hands.

As that Spiritual Thought and Spiritual Power surged in, the once-repulsive Fire Spirit Black Obsidian and Earth Spirit Profound Nether abruptly fell silent. Then, they actually began to merge slowly. Wisps of power, tinged with a destructive aura, burst forth from Shen Haoran's hands!

At this moment, Ouyang Feng's palm was less than two fists' distance from Shen Haoran. But when he saw the vivid, lifelike Qilin Beast in Shen Haoran's hands—formed from the two condensed Heaven and Earth Spirits—the hairs on his body stood on end instantly. He immediately disregarded Shen Haoran, forcibly retracting his attack and explosively retreating. He could feel the threat of death from the Qilin Beast in Shen Haoran's hands. Moreover, its aura had clearly locked onto him. Even if he could kill Shen Haoran, he would definitely be hit by that Qilin Beast. He was absolutely unwilling to trade his life for Shen Haoran's.

Seeing Ouyang Feng trying to escape the attack range of the Flame Sun Burst, Shen Haoran's lips curled into a cold sneer. With a thought, the Qilin Beast in his hands shot toward Ouyang Feng like a bolt of lightning.

The moment the Qilin Beast left his hands, a wave of weakness washed over Shen Haoran. His vision went black, and he nearly fainted. However, Shen Haoran bit his lip, forcing himself to stay conscious. Watching the Qilin Beast instantly catch up to Ouyang Feng, he formed a Seal Technique with his hands.

"Explode!"

Shen Haoran weakly shouted one word from mid-air. The next moment, the streaking Qilin Beast suddenly stopped. Its body swelled, and before Ouyang Feng's horrified gaze, it detonated.

BOOM...

An earth-shattering roar echoed from within Yingchou Creek. In an instant, a terrifying Spiritual Power storm raged outward. Scorching flames mixed with countless rock fragments, quickly forming rivers of lava that filled the entire creek. The Yin Wind Earth Gang dissipated completely under the terrifyingly high temperature. The stone walls on both sides of the ravine disintegrated under the horrifying Spiritual Power storm, and the whole of Yingchou Creek collapsed in an instant...

The Spiritual Power storm continued to rage, constantly spreading deeper into Yingchou Creek. The earth trembled. The Spirit Beasts hiding within the creek scattered and fled in terror, like birds startled by the twang of a bow. A massive, black-and-yellow mushroom cloud rose from Yingchou Creek, soaring into the heavens. Every Martial Artist within a hundred-mile radius was alarmed!

In mid-air, Elder Yan held the unconscious Shen Haoran, looking down at the churning Spiritual Power storm below with a lingering fear in his heart. He couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath. 'The power of this Flame Sun Burst, formed by the fusion of two Heaven and Earth Spirit Seeds, is simply too terrifying. Look at what's become of Yingchou Creek. That naturally formed Earth Demon Gang Wind will probably never appear here again. And Yingchou Creek itself will no longer live up to its name. It's hard to imagine that Shen Haoran's Flame Sun Burst actually changed the very geography of this place!'

Looking down at Shen Haoran, who had passed out in his arms, Elder Yan let out a wry smile. 'This immensely powerful Flame Sun Burst put a heavy burden on Haoran. His Sea of Consciousness is now depleted, and the Primordial Small World has become deathly still; I can barely feel any Spiritual Power in there. Thankfully, I managed to get him out the instant the Flame Sun Burst exploded. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable!'

Elder Yan turned his gaze back to the center of the Spiritual Power storm below. 'Although Shen Haoran's Flame Sun Burst is powerful, killing Ouyang Feng with it won't be easy. I should leave this place while Ouyang Feng is still trapped in the eye of the storm!'

With that thought, Elder Yan didn't linger. He carried Shen Haoran and sped away from Yingchou Creek, quickly disappearing beyond the horizon.

More than ten minutes after Elder Yan left, the raging Spiritual Power storm within Yingchou Creek finally began to subside. A moment later, a blackened figure shot out from the storm. After this figure emerged, the Spiritual Power storm below finally dissipated completely.

That figure was none other than Ouyang Feng. He looked absolutely wretched. His robes were completely torn to shreds, and his body was covered in gruesome wounds, large and small. Scarlet blood dripped continuously from his fingers. His once-flowing long hair was now completely gone, leaving a ragged mess that looked like it had been chewed on by a dog. His chest heaved violently, and his aura was weak. It seemed Shen Haoran's Flame Sun Burst had inflicted severe internal injuries upon him.

"Shen Haoran! I will tear you to a million pieces!" Looking in the direction where Shen Haoran had vanished without a trace, Ouyang Feng's venomous voice echoed, lingering long within Yingchou Creek...
