Probably no one would have imagined that the supposedly long-destroyed god of fire was not only alive, but had been hiding inside the statue all along.
While they were fighting with Wulan and the others, Vulcan was watching coldly. If Shenqian hadn't discovered their presence, no one knows what would have happened.
However, Shen Qian's disdainful attitude towards the Vulcan left You Ling bewildered and also sent a chill down her spine.
Even with Youling's extensive knowledge, she had never heard of anyone who could impersonate a top-level true god.
Although the figure of the fire god before us is illusory, judging from his aura, he is undoubtedly the real fire god.
However, Shen Qian not only described the other party as "something," but even reached out to grab the other party as soon as he finished speaking.
Even though Shen Qian was a thousand meters away from the God of Fire, when he stretched out his hand, a magnificent hand made entirely of tangible spiritual energy appeared in the world and grabbed the God of Fire who was floating in front of the statue.
To Youling's disbelief, the seemingly imposing Fire God's expression suddenly changed, and he retreated rapidly.
However, no matter how he retreated, he could never escape the range covered by the overwhelming hand.
It was as if that enormous hand that covered the sky was not only grasping nothingness, but also all the space in front of, behind, above, and below him.
Bang!
With a muffled thud, the phantom of the God of Fire was firmly grasped by the giant hand and could no longer move.
The Vulcan's face paled, and his figure became more ethereal.
"How dare you, human, blaspheme the gods!"
He roared, his face contorted in rage.
His imposing presence was still awe-inspiring, but seeing him helplessly trapped in the giant hand, You Ling was no longer intimidated.
She just stared wide-eyed in confusion, completely bewildered as to why the fire god before her was so frail.
"A mere wretchedness dares to call itself a god?"
Shen Qian asked indifferently, "How much of your former strength do you still possess now?"
Youling suddenly understood upon hearing this.
It turns out that the Vulcan before them was just a remnant spirit. No wonder he had such imposing presence, yet was no match for Chen Qian in a single blow.
Shen Qian clenched his fist, and a "crackling" sound immediately came from the phantom of the fire god, as if the fire god's lingering will be completely crushed in the next moment.
"You bastard!"
The God of Fire roared in anger, and his whole body suddenly shone with golden light, causing the entire Temple of the God of Fire to shake.
A far more terrifying pressure than that of the female corpse permeated the heavens and earth, and countless flames of different colors appeared out of thin air, vaguely forming the shape of a lotus flower.
The Vulcan's remains, which stood still, also burst forth with dazzling light, as if they were about to awaken at any moment.
"Noisy".
Shen Qian frowned, but with a gentle wave of his hand, all the commotion that had horrified You Ling instantly subsided.
At this moment, Youling suddenly realized that even if the Fire God was just a remnant of his spirit, he still possessed incredibly terrifying strength, only... Shen Qian was clearly even more outrageous.
Seeing his carefully prepared counterattack crumble in the blink of an eye, Vulcan finally realized something.
"Stop...stop!"
His tone softened considerably, "Human, I can give you all the treasures of this Vulcan Temple!"
"A gift?"
Shen Qian smiled faintly, "They have been mine since I arrived here, so why should I need your gift?"
"you……"
Such unreasonable and domineering words left Vulcan speechless for a moment, and he didn't know how to refute them.
"This used to be an ancient battlefield, right?"
Shen Qian seemed uninterested in the so-called treasure, but rather more interested in some ancient secrets. He asked Zhiji, "What happened back then? Why did the great war happen? And how did you perish?"
"I...I don't quite remember."
Vulcan shook his head. "Someone has stolen most of my memories. I am a remnant of my past life, born after my demise. When I woke up, this place was already like this."
"What a pity," Shen Qian sighed.
"What's a pity?" Vulcan was taken aback.
“I wanted to find a reason to let you go, but you didn’t give me one,” Shen Qian said calmly.
After a moment of stunned silence, Vulcan instantly understood what was happening, and his expression changed drastically.
"Human, you..."
puff!
His response was a massive, all-encompassing hand that suddenly closed.
After a soft sound like a bubble bursting, the lingering will of the Fire God was crushed by Shen Qian and completely dissipated into the world.
The once mighty and revered god of fire, a top-tier king and noble figure, has now been truly erased from all traces of his existence.
"You're no better than me!"
Shen Qian's eyes pierced through the ground of the Vulcan Temple, revealing piles of white bones beneath, mostly human.
Since the emergence of the Battlefield of Myriad Races, countless geniuses have stepped into this place over the years, but it is clear that very few have been able to leave alive.
Most people were killed by the lingering resentment of the fire god and fell into eternal slumber here.
It is foreseeable that if Shen Qian had not used the Time Conch, even without the variable of Ulan, the God of Fire would not have let him go.
"No wonder the system directly handed me the Time Conch; it had clearly anticipated the potential threat from Vulcan..."
Just as Chen Qian was losing focus, another unexpected event occurred.
Rumble!
The extremely dark sky suddenly began to churn, and a faint sound of violent collision could be heard coming from the horizon.
Shen Qian and You Ling both looked up and saw the sky slowly cracking open under the tearing of a pair of giant hands, revealing a face shrouded in dark mist, with only its scarlet eyes shining as brightly as a blood moon.
