After absorbing all of the flames from Planet Red, Leader Hong’s power level sharply increased, and the Blaze Realm’s master’s number of rune lines finally approached an Envoy’s.
Lu Yin knew that he could not wait any longer. If too much time passed, then even if Leader Hong ultimately died, all their efforts would be for naught if they could not seize victory. Lu Yin had not come here to fight against Leader Hong.
Lu Yin took a deep breath as his thoughts reached this point, and a large platform appeared before his eyes. He sliced open his finger and caused a drop of blood to flow out into the air. He then adopted a pious expression as he solemnly called out, “With my blood, I summon a Champion.”
The blood floated forward and fell onto the platform, where it covered the emblem of the Giant Emperor. A roar seemed to be heard in the distance, though it quickly drew closer and closer.
After Leader Hong completely absorbed the flames from the planet, he directed the flames towards the stage right when the figure of the Giant Emperor suddenly appeared.
At this time, most of the star energy in Lu Yin’s body vanished. After all, this Giant Emperor was formed from his blood and star energy as Lu Yin had summoned the giant with his second innate gift: the Champions’ Stage.
Lu Yin was stunned as he stared at the Giant Emperor’s back. This was his first time that he had used this innate gift, but it did truly seem to summon the Giant Emperor that he had encountered in Progenitor Chen’s Mausoleum. Both his expressions and movements were exactly the same.
Not only had the Giant Emperor in Progenitor Chen’s Mausoleum been intelligent, but he had also possessed formidable physical strength. Even after Lu Yin had broken through to the Hunter realm, he had still only been able to force the Giant Emperor a few steps back.
Although the Giant Emperor possessed no battle techniques and could not use star energy, his physical strength was enough to make an Envoy look twice.
Off in the distance, Leader Hong stared blankly at the massive Giant Emperor. What is that? Where did it come from? Leader Hong had never noticed anything different until the giant actually arrived.
Above Planet Red, Duane Daynight and Elder Tan both saw the Giant Emperor appear, and his appearance had shocked them both. No one understood where the Giant Emperor had come from. The fact that such a massive creature had suddenly appeared without being noticed challenged their very understanding of the universe.
Lu Yin was left in a weakened state, as summoning the Giant Emperor had exhausted him both physically and mentally.
The Giant Emperor roared at the sky.
Lu Yin’s heart moved, and he ordered the Giant Emperor to kill Leader Hong.
Leader Hong’s eyes suddenly went wide. “Giant, you’re courting death!”
As he spoke, roiling flames rolled forward in an overbearing manner, tangling with the Giant Emperor. They threw the Giant Emperor up and then slammed him back down to the ground, where raging flames covered the Giant Emperor and attempted to consume him.
Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed, but he was able to sense that the Giant Emperor was still fine.
Sure enough, the next moment, the Giant Emperor stood back up and rushed at Leader Hong. As the giant advanced forward, he grabbed a boulder and hurled it forward.
Leader Hong frowned and waved a hand. Flames condensed into another sword that fell and destroyed the boulder before continuing on to slash at the Giant Emperor.
The Giant Emperor’s chest was cut open, and blood could be seen, but no blood fell out. Instead, the giant actually began to recover. The price for his healing was that more of Lu Yin’s star energy was consumed.
Lu Yin instantly realized that, if he did not possess a reserve of star energy that far surpassed an ordinary cultivator, he would never be able to support the Giant Emperor.
Even if someone else possessed the same innate gift as Lu Yin, it would be almost impossible for them to have enough star energy to support its usage. Could this be considered as some sort of fate?
The Giant Emperor quickly recovered from Leader Hong’s attack and continued to approach the master of the Blaze Realm as he threw another punch.
Leader Hong’s expression changed drastically as he watched the Giant Emperor’s wound heal. Was this some sort of innate gift? However, he could not afford to spend much time thinking about it, as the Giant Emperor’s fist was quickly barrelling towards Leader Hong, so he rushed to evade it.
The ground shattered, and Planet Red broke in two. The tremendous power even distorted the void before space shattered into spider web-like cracks that spread out.
Leader Hong was astonished by the giant’s incredible physical power.
When it came to pure physical strength, neither Lu Yin nor Corpse Beast could compare to the Giant Emperor since giants held too much of an advantage when it came to their physiques. As for Leader Hong, even though he was a powerful Envoy, he had never excelled at physical power. Still, despite his wounds and relatively poor physique, he was still an Envoy, which meant that he was not completely overwhelmed by the Giant Emperor’s impressive strength.
The punch did not strike Leader Hong, so the Giant Emperor raised his hand once more. This time, all five fingers were spread out as the hand swept across the land.
A violent wind burst forth, and it blasted the smaller half of Planet Red away, sending countless rocks and a great deal of lava hurtling through the nearby region of space.
Elder Tan quickly evaded, and he stared at the shattered remnants of Planet Red in horror. Even the shockwaves from this battle were enough to shatter his body.
Duane Daynight was similarly shocked by the power that he was witnessing.
Planet Red had been completely destroyed. Leader Hong’s eyes were bloodshot, and blue veins covered his body. It looked as though lava was flowing through his veins, and layers of flames spread out from him, incinerating earth, air, star energy, and even light.
Lu Yin quickly retreated as he watched the flames from Leader Hong coalesce to once again form a Fire Spirit. This time, the flaming giant had reached an even more impressive temperature than when Duane Daynight had been attacked.
The Giant Emperor roared as it rushed at the Fire Spirit. In response, Leader Hong raised a hand and pressed down, causing the Fire Spirit to rush towards the Giant Emperor. The two behemoths fiercely clashed with each other.
Leader Hong spat out a mouthful of blood, but this time, the blood was black. He still had not fully cleansed his body of the poison, and a layer of ice would still occasionally cover his body, which was the aftermath of the Frost Emperor’s attacks.
The Giant Emperor was constantly being burned by the Fire Spirit, but the giant continued his fierce barrage of attacks, causing the Fire Spirit to shrink smaller and smaller.
Sweat fell from Lu Yin’s forehead, and 720 stars revolved around his body as he crazily absorbed star energy. However, it was not enough, and he had already used up almost all of his star energy. His head scrambled for an answer, and after a moment, he pulled out the Skyblaze Stone and threw it straight at the Fire Spirit.
If Madam Lan were present, she would have stopped the stone, as she had personally witnessed how the Skyblaze Stone had absorbed her terrible fireball attack. However, Leader Hong was still ignorant.

The Skyblaze Stone entered the Fire Spirit, and its heat and flames were frantically absorbed as the Fire Spirit began to disappear at a visible rate.
Leader Hong was stunned and unable to react. Where had his Fire Spirit gone?
At this moment, the Giant Emperor threw out another punch, fiercely pressing the attack against Leader Hong.
The Envoy’s expression changed, and he quickly evaded. However, he had not expected Lu Yin to suddenly appear in the direction where he was dodging. Leader Hong was smashed against the remnants of Planet Red, and he vomited another mouthful of blood. His face grew pale.
The Giant Emperor roared and punched out again.
Leader Hong’s eyes grew vicious. “Curse you!”
There was another loud bang as the Giant Emperor smashed Leader Hong into a pile of rocks.
The Giant Emperor fiercely stomped down, and Lu Yin hurriedly stopped him. His eyes darted about before looking at a place ten thousand meters away from the Giant Emperor. Lu Yin put the massive mechanical arm over his right hand, and an astral chessboard appeared beneath his feet before he moved.
Beneath the surface, Leader Hong’s eyes burned with resentment as they radiated an unbelievable killing intent. The ground around him broke apart and floated through space, causing Planet Red to completely shatter. A flame appeared in Leader Hong’s hand, only to instantly disappear as if it had never even existed.
A few flames appeared, but each of them looked like they were about to be blown out at any time. However, these flames caused an excited glint to appear in Leader Hong’s eyes. “The power vessel left behind by that old ghost really is too valuable. Unfortunately, it’s about to be completely used up.”
The flames danced about for a moment before gradually taking the shape of a long sword that exuded sword qi. This blade actually seemed somewhat similar to the Karmic Flame Sword.
The Karmic Flame Sword technique was a battle technique that used Karmic Flames, but those flames were not actually required to use the battle technique.
Leader Hong had been injured when he took out this bit of flame, and he had actually been burned by its extraordinary temperature. Because of his terrible injuries, he was very unwilling to use this flame, as doing so was no different than resigning himself to death, and he would even suffer excruciating pain.
However, he was left with no choice given his current predicament.
Leader Hong’s eyes changed from excited to vicious. “Lu Yin, you’ve forced me!”
“What did I force you to do?” Lu Yin’s voice came from behind Leader Hong, startling the Envoy; was this a secret technique?
Leader Hong immediately whirled around and unleashed a palm, using the sputtering flames to reinforce his attack: Cotton Palm.
Lu Yin used his left hand to pull out the one-way mirror while his right hand punched at Leader Hong’s arm along with the mechanical arm.
When Leader Hong’s Cotton Palm closed in on Lu Yin, it was suddenly absorbed by the one-way mirror, and at the same time, Leader Hong’s body was slammed into the ground by Lu Yin’s fist. Leader Hong lost all control over the flame that he had just taken out, and it fell away from him before suddenly spreading out and burning space and the void.
Lu Yin’s pupils abruptly shrank, and he quickly took out the Skyblaze Stone to absorb this flame.
However, these flames were so fierce that not even the Skyblaze Stone could absorb everything. Fortunately, Lu Yin was wearing his universal armor. Otherwise, he would have been reduced to ashes by these flames.
Although Lu Yin had managed to avoid that fate, the Giant Emperor was not able to do the same, and he was instantly erased by the flames.
The flames burned the shattered remains of Planet Red away before spreading out to burn the space in the surrounding area. All of the planets touched by the flames were transformed into a sea of fire, and the native creatures tried to flee in terror, but they were all destined to be turned to nothing but ash.
Smoker did not even know where to flee.
The moment Elder Tan saw these flames, he fled. He merely played with fire while these flames were not something that he could even approach.
Duane Daynight also moved far away. He stared at where Planet Red had once stood, but he did not dare to touch this kind of flame.
Planet Red had been completely shattered and scattered, and at the moment, it was being burned by the flames until only nothingness remained.
Leader Hong had been pounded deep into the ground, and he had been repeatedly and severely injured by Lu Yin. He had endured until his limit, but he could no longer bear it. His eyes nearly bulged out of his head as he screamed, “Junior, if you want to die, then I’ll oblige you!”
After speaking, Leader Hong opened his mouth and swallowed the surrounding flames that were burning space and the void.
This was the second time that the man had swallowed flames. The first time, he had swallowed the flames from Planet Red, but this time, he had swallowed that strange, sputtering flame. Leader Hong had been afraid of this flame just when holding it in his hands, but he had actually been enraged to the point of consuming these flames to restore his strength as an Envoy.
Even if his strength would never be fully restored again in the future, he would do whatever it took to destroy Lu Yin.
Lu Yin kept evading the flames while keeping a careful eye on Leader Hong. Lu Yin saw the Envoy’s rune lines continue to increase without limit, and Lu Yin’s scalp started tingling. This was not good, as the old man had finally grown desperate. This was an Envoy’s true power, and they were powerhouses who did not use star energy, but rather stellular energy.
At this moment, Lu Yin felt as though his body was mired in mud, unable to breathe. Additionally, the star energy within his body could no longer be controlled. It had stopped, as he was being suppressed.
Leader Hong was perfectly demonstrating the power of an Envoy right now. Flames danced in his eyes and in his mouth as he stared at Lu Yin. “Junior, I will burn you to ashes.”
Lu Yin’s eye twitched. It was completely impossible for him to deal with a true Envoy, as they were simply on completely different levels.
Challenging an Envoy before entering that realm was far more difficult than contending with Explorers before entering that realm.
Was he finished? Lu Yin could not fight any longer, and it appeared that he would need to ask an Envoy to step forward for him, which made him feel helpless.
At this moment, aside from the powerhouses in Leon’s Armada, Lu Yin only knew of two Envoys who could help him: the elder from the Sea King’s Dome and the Frost Emperor.
The Frost Emperor could not appear, as the Enlighters of the Frostgate Army had already been led out by Lu Yin. Additionally, Lu Yin would not ask the elder from the Sea King’s Dome for help unless there was no other choice. The Sea King’s Dome had its own position to consider, and it would cost Lu Yin dearly to ask for their help.
However, just as Lu Yin was struggling over which elder to ask to take action, Leader Hong suddenly vomited up another mouthful of blood.
