Chapter 230 230: Arrive At The Hidden Place (part 3)

As the fire enveloped the colossal skeleton, its bony form seemed to crack and splinter, but to the alliance leaders' dismay, the creature only staggered and roared in fury. The blue fire surrounding the skeleton intensified, and with a mighty roar that shook the very earth beneath them, the monster unleashed its own devastating attack.

From the ground below, blue flames spouted forth like geysers, creating a dangerous and fiery landscape. The alliance leaders had to be cautious with every step they took, as the scorching flames threatened to engulf them. The sheer intensity of the monster's power was overwhelming, and even their united strength seemed insufficient.

Alix gritted his teeth, realizing that combine attacks alone were not enough to defeat the formidable creature. He knew he had to call upon the power of his bloodline. With a deep breath, he closed his eyes, and as he opened them again, his pupils glowed with an intense golden light, signifying the awakening of his bloodline power.

As Alix's transformation continued, his body began to change. Fiery fur sprouted from his skin, and a tail formed behind him. His fists, now resembling the fiery hands of a monkey god, crackled with immense power. In this state, he became the main fighter, leading the charge against the colossal skeleton.

Captain Zao, Yara, Lady Xin, and Shadowblade recognized the transformation and quickly shifted their tactics to support Alix. They knew that he needed their help to exploit the creature's weaknesses and deliver a decisive blow. Despite all of them, apart from Alix being in the middle-stage of the Golden Core Realm, they understood that their combined strength could still make a difference, even if it was just a little damage against the formidable monster.

Captain Zao stomped the ground with his mighty axe, causing the earth to tremble. Giant rocks rose from the ground, forming a protective barrier around Alix, shielding him from the onslaught of the blue flames. The earth-based defense bought him some time to concentrate on his bloodline powers.

Yara used his water affinity to create a torrent of ice that surged towards the colossal skeleton's legs, freezing the joints and immobilizing it even further. Lady Xin followed suit with her wind manipulation, creating a cyclone that encased the frozen joints and further weakened the creature's movements.

With the creature temporarily immobilized, Alix saw his chance and unleashed a flurry of fiery punches and kicks. Each strike hit with the force of a blazing inferno, causing the colossal skeleton to roar in pain. The alliance leaders could feel the momentum shifting in their favor, and hope surged within them.

But the creature was not easily defeated. It retaliated with a massive swing of its skeletal arms, creating shockwaves of blue fire that threatened to engulf them all. The alliance leaders scattered, using their elemental abilities to evade the deadly attack.

Alix, realizing that they needed to deal a decisive blow, gathered all his strength. The golden glow of his bloodline power intensified, and with a mighty roar, he unleashed a devastating attack known as the "Fiery God's Roar."

A powerful shockwave of fire burst forth from his mouth, engulfing the colossal skeleton in an overwhelming inferno. The blue flames that once seemed invincible now struggled to withstand the fury of Alix's divine power.

The alliance leaders watched in awe as Alix's attack engulfed the colossal skeleton, and for a moment, it seemed like they had finally gained the upper hand. The monster's bones crackled and trembled under the scorching assault, and hope flickered within their hearts. But to their astonishment, the colossal skeleton didn't collapse as they had expected. Instead, its flames intensified, roaring with an otherworldly fury.

Alix's eyes widened with concern, realizing that this was not just any attack—it was the monster's ultimate move. The creature's blue flames surged with overwhelming power, threatening to consume everything in their path. The alliance leaders knew that they had to act quickly if they were to survive this devastating onslaught.

Yara, with his water affinity, saw an opportunity amidst the chaos. "Alix, use your fire to create an opening, and I'll flood the area with water!" he called out, his voice determined.

Understanding the plan, Alix nodded, his fire bloodline power burning brighter. He unleashed another powerful attack, creating a fiery whirlwind that pushed back the colossal skeleton, creating a momentary gap in its defenses.

Seizing the chance, Yara unleashed a torrent of water, summoning a tidal wave that surged towards the monster, attempting to extinguish its blue flames. But the creature's power was formidable, and the water seemed to evaporate before it could reach the inferno.

Lady Xin, realizing that they needed even greater elemental force, joined in with her wind affinity. She created a massive vortex that spiraled around Yara's water, increasing its momentum and strength. The combined water and wind power now had a fighting chance against the monster's relentless flames.

"Keep going! We can do this!" Lady Xin shouted, her voice echoing with determination.

Captain Zao, utilizing his earth-based abilities, followed suit. He pounded the ground with his mighty axe, causing the earth to rumble. From beneath the colossal skeleton, stone spikes erupted, encasing its flaming legs and attempting to immobilize it once more.

With their coordinated efforts, the alliance leaders had created an opening, but the monster's flames were far from extinguished. The blue fire raged like an inferno, threatening to overwhelm them once more.

Alix knew that he had to do something drastic. Drawing upon his fiery bloodline power, he unleashed the full extent of his abilities. His fiery fur bristled, and his tail whipped with intensity. With a deep breath, he focused all his energy and channeled it into one final attack—the "Infernal Eclipse."

In an instant, the sky darkened as the fiery sun behind him was momentarily eclipsed by a dark shadow. Alix's fists crackled with an unparalleled fury of fire, and with a deafening roar, he released a beam of intense golden flames that surged towards the colossal skeleton.

The Infernal Eclipse tore through the monster's defenses, colliding with its blue flames head-on. The clash created a blinding explosion, illuminating the plateau with an awe-inspiring display of power. The alliance leaders shielded their eyes, and the ground trembled beneath their feet.

When the dust settled, the colossal skeleton's blue flames had finally subsided. The creature stood motionless, its bones charred and weakened by the devastating attack. Exhausted but triumphant, the alliance leaders had overcome the monster's ultimate attack, relying on their unity and strength to push through the seemingly insurmountable challenge.

As the fiery golden glow around Alix faded, he returned to his human form, breathing heavily but filled with pride. "We did it," he said, his voice a mix of relief and exhaustion.

Yara clapped a hand on his shoulder, a wide grin on his face. "That was incredible, Alix. Your bloodline power saved us," he commended.

Captain Zao laughed heartily, "You turned the tide with that Infernal Eclipse, my friend. A truly powerful move."

Lady Xin nodded in agreement, "Indeed, Alix. Your determination and strength have proven invaluable to our alliance."

Shadowblade, though reserved as always, offered a nod of approval, "You fought with the spirit of a true warrior."

As they stood amidst the aftermath of the battle, the alliance leaders knew that they had overcome one of the greatest challenges in their cultivation journey. They had faced the monster's ultimate attack and emerged victorious through their unwavering trust in each other.

Unbeknownst to them, Tan Zong had observed the entire battle from the shadows.

He couldn't help but click his mouth in amazement at the allianc Alix's display of power. "If only I can experiment on you," he muttered to himself, "I might get a breakthrough to my goal."

Feeling a mix of awe and excitement, Tan Zong couldn't deny the temptation that arose within him. He had long sought a breakthrough in his goal, and witnessing the alix's prowess with his bloodline powers gave him an idea.

Slowly, Tan Zong approached the group, acting out of breath and feigning surprise. "I just saw a blinding light in the distance," he said, trying to sound convincing.

Yara raised an eyebrow, "That's right, Lord Tan Zong. When the monsters emerged, you disappeared out of nowhere," he said with a curious look.

Tan Zong put on an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry about that. When the undead started appearing, I felt that something was off, so I investigated where these undead come from," he explained, hoping they would buy his excuse.

While the alliance leaders were still a little suspicious, they didn't pursue the matter further. After all, they did feel that the number of undead monsters was fewer this time, maybe Tan Zong did something about it.

Captain Zao chuckled, "Well, no harm done, lord Tan Zong. You helped us replace this hidden place, and that's more than enough," he said, dismissing any concerns.

Lady Xin nodded, "Indeed, we should be grateful for your assistance," she added.

Yara grinned, "Just make sure to stick with us next time. Your insights might prove valuable," he said with a friendly pat on Tan Zong's back.

Tan Zong smiled appreciatively, hiding his true intentions. "Of course, I'll be more careful next time," he replied, trying to act natural.

With a final nod of farewell, Tan Zong turned to leave. "I should go now. I already did my part," he said, using the opportunity to distance himself from the alliance leaders. He knew that he couldn't stay any longer without arousing further suspicion.

"Take care, Lord Tan Zong," Alix said, still catching his breath from the intense battle. "Thank you for your help."

Tan Zong nodded, "You're welcome, Alix. Remember, you can always rely on me if you need anything," he said, hoping to maintain his façade.

As the alliance leaders bid him goodbye, Tan Zong took out a returner stone. With a flash of light, he disappeared from in front of Alix and the others, leaving them to continue their celebration of their hard-fought victory.
