Several streaks of firelight shot up from the hidden places in the surrounding mountains, weaving together in an instant, then rolled down like the Milky Way in reverse.
The boundless flames swallowed the mountain range in an instant, as if it had transformed into a hundred-mile Flame Mountain.
Among the flames, a Phoenix rose, its elegant dance set against the cries of the bird as it swooped toward a group of barbarians.
The eyes of the five barbarian men and women were filled with flames, as if they were trapped in Purgatory, with intense heat infiltrating their bodies, threatening to char them and melt their souls!
A trap!
The leader, Hu Erlie, bellowed as golden radiance burst from him, and at the same time, the lid of a black gourd on his back flew open, spouting black water.
Upon contact with the blaze, the black water emitted vast amounts of mist, temporarily holding off the invasion of the flames.
"A trap, retreat quickly!"
