I Can Give Talent

Chapter 37 – Chaotic Fights

"We are here! Babababaa!" Alchemist Master Babadog was very excited looking at the multiple layers of formations covering the place in front of him. His belly was shaking as he laughed.

"It's true that this place is extremely hot. Even with a bunch of heat-resistance artifacts around me, the heat could still penetrate my body. Urgh...Formation Master Dinding, please start right away." Babadog's excitement was diminished by the scorching heat in the cave. He felt that even the magma was not as hot as this. 

It was not just Alchemist Master Babadog who was wearing heat-resistance artifacts, everyone else was also wearing some. They even used protective Qi on top of the heat-resistance artifacts because they didn't have as many as Babadog.

"Let me adjust to the heat here first or I won't be able to concentrate. Why didn't you tell me it's going to be this hot?" Formation Master Dinding complained.

"I already told you it's going to be very hot." Alchemist Master Babadog retorted.

"Bullshit! Is this very hot? This is SUPER MEGA ULTRA HOT! We could die without the artifacts." He was getting angry.

"Alright.... calm down Formation Master Dinding, I will compensate you double later." To be honest, from the information he got, he didn't expect the heat would be this intense.

"Hmph...You better! I am starting now. Don't step into my array circle." Formation Master Dinding warned them. He didn't want to be disturbed while dismantling the layers of formations in front of him.

He took out a set of formation tools and arranged them at precise locations around him. Next, he began to draw a series of complex symbols in the area within the setup formation tools. After he completed, he started to pour his Qi into the completed array to activate it.

As soon as the array was activated, a beam of light shot out from it toward the formation covering the cave. There was no explosion or impact of any sort because the beam of light was not meant to do that. Its purpose is to scan the formation and search for the weakest link that holds the formation. From this information, Formation Master Dinding could then proceed with dismantling the formations.

They were deep below the volcano now, if they were to use destructive methods to destroy the formations, everything could collapse and make things harder. This was why Alchemist master Babadog needed to borrow the expertise of a Formation Master.

Suddenly, one of Babadog's Alchemic Knight frowned and calmly said, "Master, we have guests."

"Huh?" Babadog frowned. He released his spiritual sense and discovered a group of people coming to them fast.

"Hahahahaha! Babadog..Babadog..What are you doing here in my secret place? Are trying to steal my treasure?" A man with a well-designed coat said to Babadog while smiling.

"Damn Magna! Where do you get these extra Core Formation experts? You should only have three of them!" Babadog was mad. He knew that Magna would not let him steal the treasure easily, so he was prepared for battle. But he didn't expect him to have another three Core Formation experts with him. He never saw any of them previously.

Excluding Formation Master Dinding, he only has six Core Formation experts on his side while there are seven Core Formation experts on Magna's side. Not to mention that Magna is a middle-stage Core Formation expert. He was expecting his extra Alchemic Knights which are far stronger than the average to deal with Magna, but all his plan was ruined now.

"Where? Of course, they're my men. But they are always in the shadows....for times like THIS!" As soon as Magna finished his sentences, he took out a big axe and swung it downward at Babadog.

Two of Babadog's Alchemic Knights Immediately came and blocked Magna's attack with their weapons, a sword and a spear. The clash instantly caused the cave to shake heavily and a bunch of lava stalactites to fall.

Another Alchemic Knight wearing a gauntlet suddenly appeared at Magna's right side and punched at him, "Bone Crushing Smash!"

Unfortunately, the punch was met with a wall of earth, erected by one of Magna's men.

BOOOM!! The earth wall shattered! Another one of Magna's men immediately dashed forward and fought with the gauntlet user.

"Hahahaha! MEN!! KILL THEM ALL!!" Magna shouted.

In just a few moments, a fight broke out between the two groups and it caused a lot of damage to the cave. Although Babadog's Alchemic Knights were stronger than normal cultivators, they were outnumbered, and Magna was a middle-stage Core Formation expert. He alone could take on two early-stage Core Formation experts.

"Ultra Heavy Chop!!" Magna activated the special ability of his Tier-3 Spirit Weapon, instantly making his weapon ten times heavier to cause more damage. The two Alchemic Knights were blown away by the chop and injured.

"Damn it! These idiots started fighting here!" Formation Master Dinding couldn't continue his task anymore. Not only that, he's trapped between the formation and the clashes behind him. It was only a matter of time before this place was completely destroyed.

"I should have never agreed to this!" He regretted his decision. Suddenly he saw Babadog take out something, and he immediately cursed. 

"Fuck Babadog! Are you trying to kill everyone!!?" He screamed.

After the clash started, Babadog knew his group wouldn't be able to win so he decided to take out everyone with a trump card he refined. A poison bomb! It might not be able to kill everyone instantly but the extreme heat here would help achieve his objective. He and his men have the antidote for the poison bomb anyway, so he isn't afraid.

However, it was a different story with Formation Master Dinding as he didn't have the antidote. He kept hearing Babadog brag about his poison bomb, but he never thought he would use it right now. He can only blame himself for putting himself in this shitty situation. Not wanting to die, he could only hope that there was another path on the other side of the formations.

Formation Master Dinding brought out his most expensive treasure from his space bag, a Formation Disintegrator. It was a very expensive treasure he bought at an auction house using his entire savings. He intended to reverse engineer and study how it worked slowly so he could apply the method himself but unfortunately, he had to use this now. It was a one-time-use item so his heart ached.

"Damn it Babadog! If I'm alive, I'll make sure to make you compensate for everything that I lost today!" He threw out the Formation Disintegrator to the formation before Babadog managed to activate his poison bomb.

The Formation Disintegrator started to spin extremely fast producing a highly pitched sound causing the fabric of space to distort a little.

Everyone noticed what was happening due to the high-pitched sound and stopped fighting. Soon, they saw the formations get sucked one by one into the spinning tiny black hole. They all saw the formations getting sucked but it was actually disintegrating the formations as intended by its given name.

As soon as the formations disappeared, the spinning ceased, and the Formation Disintegrator also disappeared to nothingness. It was truly a one-time use.

Formation Master Dinding and everybody else saw a special fire floating in the middle of the cave. The colors of the special fire keep changing from Red to Blue to Black and Red again repeatedly.

Both Alchemist Master Babadog and City Lord Magna's eyes instantly became full of desire to obtain this unique special fire.

Formation Master Dinding couldn't care less about this special fire. Not only that, he felt that he should run away even faster and never come back because this kind of treasure, anyone who obtained it, would surely kill anyone who knew about it. He instantly flew to the other side of the cave trying to escape desperately.

Meanwhile, at the same moment, Magna already rushed toward the special fire. He doesn't care about Babadog anymore. His men could take care of him.

Babadog saw Magna come near to the special fire and he felt angry. His Alchemic Knights were all seriously injured and couldn't hold on for much longer. He no longer hesitated and detonated his poison bomb. "Consume the antidote!!" He screamed to his Alchemic Knights.

Purple gasses instantly engulfed every single person in the cave as soon as his scream was heard. Everyone holds their breath and puts up more protective Qi to prevent their pores from being infiltrated by the poison. However, the poison even corroded their protective Qi and seeped into their pores. Their veins instantly turned purple and they struggled to stand properly.

Magna couldn't wait any longer so he took out a special container he prepared to keep the special fire. Unfortunately, when he activated the container and put the special fire in it, the container instantly burned to ashes.

The special fire pulsated quickly many times, and suddenly it absorbed all the poison gas in the cave. Babadog was shocked. What kind of special fire is this? This would be the last thought of Babadog, as the special fire suddenly exploded.

The explosion instantly turned everyone nearby into nothingness. Magna, Babadog, the Alchemic Knights, Magna's men, and even Formation Master Dinding who was running away.

A thick pillar of fire could be seen appearing from the Bara Volcano.
