The sound of air bursting.

A pillar of blue and white fire spurted out from the red dragon's mouth, descending like a punishment from heaven, and hit the fire giant Pasha directly.

The terrifying temperature distorted the surrounding space, and even the fire elemental plane could not bear it.

[Primal Flame Breath]

"O Lord of the Flame"

His face turned pale by the firelight, he couldn't help but pray, then raised the shield with all his strength.

Being hit by such a breath——

will die!

Even though Ismail is the spirit of the fire element, it is difficult for him to resist this high-level energy.

The rings and necklaces on his body glowed at the same time, and several protective magics were activated one after another. Layered spell hemispheres appeared above the fire giant.

"boom!"

Energy collided and an explosion occurred.

Flames were everywhere and violent elemental tides were surging around.

However, the stalemate lasted only a few seconds. The next moment, a blue-white pillar of fire penetrated several spells of protection and hit the fire giant's shield.

"Red Dragon--"

Ismail held up his shield, his arms bulging with muscles, and actually held up the pillar of fire.

But his whole body was oppressed by that powerful force, and the ground cracked, revealing flowing magma.

The fire giant blocked the breath while moving on the ground, looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

However, an inconspicuous dark green light passed by.

The fire giant didn't notice that Cassius in the sky had just stretched out a claw and pointed it at him.

"boom!"

The dark green light hit the shield, followed by the release of a spherical magical force field.

The [Shield of Ancient Beast] suddenly became dim, cracks appeared on it, and then it shattered and turned into a pool of powder.

"This is--"

"Oh no, the Great Disintegration Technique!"

Ismail's expression changed suddenly, but he had rich combat experience after all, and he reacted the moment the lysis force field came into contact with other equipment.

[Anti-magic field]

The silver ring on his finger lit up, and an anti-magic force field suddenly appeared, blocking the cracked force field.

The Great Disintegration has a 1% chance of destroying anti-magic fields and artifacts, but the efreet was not so unlucky.

For powerful warriors, such protective magic equipment is their standard configuration.

Ismail suddenly rolled forward, then penetrated the space and appeared hundreds of meters away.

"Dragon Warlock"

"This is a bit tricky."

Ismail looked up at the giant dragon high in the sky, his expression becoming increasingly solemn.

A pure red dragon is already a natural fighting machine.

Their fiery breath, razor-sharp teeth, and thick tails are all powerful weapons, not to mention their innate ability to cast spells.

And the Red Dragon Warlock, in addition to the conventional inherited spells, can also learn more unexpected spells, which is even more terrifying.

A long-range spell duel with a warlock who often serves as a "turret".

It doesn't seem like a good idea at all.

But Cassius did not give Ismail much time to think and quickly turned around.

The pillar of fire plowed through the earth, creating deep furrows that swept relentlessly toward the fire giant Pasha.

At this moment, he had lost the legendary [Shield of Ancient Beast] and could only flee in panic across the land.

"No, we can't go on like this!"

Rolling forward again to avoid the sweep of the fire column, Ismail clenched his teeth, with a look of determination in his eyes.

There is no other way.

The breath of this red dragon is too terrifying, and it has all kinds of sorcerer's tricks. If he continues like this, he will only be defeated.

Even death!
The fire giant Pasha shouted angrily:
"Red Dragon, I wanted to use the power bestowed by the Great Sultan to fight against the Prince of Holy Flame!"

"But—you pissed me off!"

Ismail howled to the sky, and the golden ring on his neck kept spinning, releasing some powerful force.

The earth is shaking.

The flames around him were dancing. The entire plane of fire seemed to be cheering, with steam billowing, flames dancing, and clouds of ashes raining down from the sky.

They all seemed to have some kind of strange resonance with this fire giant Pasha.

As the natural rulers of the elemental plane, every giant has a natural connection with the plane.

The most powerful giants can harness this power.

Cassius did not have the habit of waiting for others to transform, and he spewed out extremely cold ice waterfalls, flashing lightning, and blazing white pillars of fire in succession.

But these breaths were blocked by the rules of the fire elemental plane and could not break through the barrier formed by flames, ashes, and steam.

Cassius could certainly use a more powerful ability.

But this is not necessary.

He stared at the roaring fire giant in the distance, a hint of interest in his light golden pupils.

"Is this the power of the Great Sultan?"

"Tsk, I was just thinking about it. No wonder the system gave him a challenge level of 24. Guys like this are really interesting."

Ismail's chanting echoed across the land.

"Lord of Fire, I pray to you in the name of the Son of the Elemental Plane"

"Please give me the strength to repel the invaders!"

"boom!"

A pillar of fire shot up into the sky!

In the dazzling firelight and wrapped in the steam cloud, Ismail's body expanded rapidly and became increasingly larger.

Finally, a giant nearly thirty meters tall stood on the ground where magma was flowing and flames were everywhere, and let out a roar that shook the world.

"Red Dragon!"

"You have angered the most unsuitable enemy!"

"I, the honorable fire giant Pasha Ismail, in the name of the Great Sultan, grant you the end!"

Ismail raised his brass scimitar high and glared at the red dragon in the distance.

His body was wrapped in flames like gossamer threads, with ripples of magma, and the surrounding space was fluctuating with his movements.

The Elemental Plane of Fire is the essence and embodiment of fire.

As the spirit of the fire element and the self-proclaimed ruler of the fire element plane, the fire giant Pasha actually temporarily grasped a wisp of "plane power" at this moment.

"Ismail."

"You are now worthy of my taking you a little more seriously!"

Cassius exhaled a breath of hot, sulfurous air and looked at the giant standing on the earth with excitement.

He flapped his wings slowly and took off into the air again.

[Immortal Reverse Scale]

【As graceful as a swimming dragon】

[Immune to Energy Damage]

【High Energy Scales】

The red dragon's body surface was flickering with magical auras, and all kinds of blessing spells were spread over every inch of his body.

Moreover, Cassius is now even more wealthy. Not only does he have his own dragon magic, but the gaps between his scales are also inlaid with many magical equipments that were tributed by the subjects of the empire.

Even his wing membranes are painted with various spells such as [Otiluk Exorcism Barrier] and [Shining Pattern].

——This is what Cassius learned from the "Silver Wing" Oscedro.

"Damn crawlers"

Ismail felt the power filling his body and looked towards the red dragon in the distance with hatred, wishing he could tear it to pieces alive.

This is an ability that can only be used once every hundred years.

He originally wanted to use this power to demonstrate his prowess and achieve great success in the Burning War.

But the sudden appearance of the red dragon disrupted his plan and even threatened his life.

"Red Dragon! You are powerful!"

"But you will never be able to defeat a noble fire giant Pasha in the Elemental Plane of Fire!"

"boom!"

Ismail shouted loudly, stomped his foot and caused the ground to crack, and his huge body suddenly leaped hundreds of meters up.

The fire giant Pasha, trailing ashes and smoke behind him, swung his scimitar back with all his might and pounced towards the red dragon in the sky alone.

The brass scimitar cut through space, and its surface was covered with a layer of scorching light. (End of this chapter)
