Chapter 470: Exhausting His Abilities"[Possession of the Lava Demon]!" Whatever eyeballs Moyan possessed all burst in that moment as fuel for his ultimate technique.
The more eyeballs that burned up, the more intense the flames Moyan could generate. When he used his ultimate technique, his eye sockets filled up with black flame, and his entire body began to burn.
The flames reached for the sky, forming a pillar of darkness.
Moyan, burning with pitch darkness, took the bombardment of light head-on. He was forced back dozens of meters, but he managed to fend off the attack.
The gigantic white dragon opened its maw and shot out a beam of light which sent Moyan flying, knocking him over a hundred meters into the distance before he fell with a backbreaking thud.
The flames surrounding Moyan seemed to burn all the more strongly, drowning the world in darkness. As Moyan stumbled up, the strength of the flames reached a crescendo. He looked much like a demon of hell himself.
"This isn't enough!" Moyan sucked in a deep breath, swallowing the flames that were arrayed before him. The flames grew even taller and stronger, and he morphed into a gigantic shadow.
Moyan roared in anger, all rationality having left him, spending his own life force as fuel.
The sura shouted in delight, "His highness has finally used his trump card! What amazing strength!"
"His highness is invincible! He'll kill that human for sure!"
"There's no way we sura can lose against the humans!"
"No, it's still not enough!" The sura's shouts caught the crazed Moyan's attention, and he turned to his sura subordinates.
The sura began to panic. "What's going on, your highness? The enemy's that way!"
Flames burst from Moyan's body as he dashed forward, entering the midst of the sura and grabbing the neck of one of them. The unfortunate sura's eyes burned in Moyan's grasp as he screamed. Bursts of dark flame covered his body, which Moyan tossed onto the ground as though it were nothing but trash.
The sura screamed as he rolled on the ground before slowly turning to a pile of charcoal under the assault of the black flame.
Meanwhile, the black flames all over Moyan's body grew even stronger.
"Your highness, what are you doing?!"
Moyan didn't pay the cries any heed. He caught another sura and repeated the process.
Li Feng stared at Moyan. "He's gone berserk."
Moyan didn't seem as though he would stop before turning everything into fire and ashes. Perhaps this was the first time Moyan had activated this final state of his technique; perhaps he knew that he would lose his rationality, but he didn't care.

After all, everyone else was just walking vials of eyeballs for him to retrieve at his pleasure.
"Run, run quick! His highness has gone crazy!" The sura scattered as they shouted to each other.
Against Moyan, however, fleeing had no effect.
Moyan's flames flared, enveloping all the sura in the vicinity. The sura struck by the flames all began to burn; the flames penetrated their eyeballs and burned them to a crisp, augmenting Moyan's flames even further.
Despite the fact that it was daytime, despite the fact that the sun hung in the middle of the sky, the ground seemed to be covered with a patch of eternal night. The sura trapped within screamed as they burned.
"[Dragon's Triumph]!" A light dragon descended from the heavens like a beacon of shining light, dissipating the black flames.
Li Feng leapt high into the air and landed on the dragon's head, his sword gleaming brightly as though it had been dipped in liquid light. As he raised the sword to the skies, it glowed and expanded, morphing into a huge blade of light.
Li Feng had interrupted Moyan not to save the burning sura, but rather to prevent Moyan from growing even stronger. Whenever Moyan devoured another sura's eyeballs, his flames would increase in magnitude.
Riding the dragon of light, raising the sword high over his head, Li Feng charged forward. Moyan condensed the black flames and augmented his body into that of a giant demon.
The light dragon and sword of light struck Moyan simultaneously, shaking earth and sky, tearing a huge rent in the ground, and causing the nearby space to collapse. Even the hunters watching from afar were knocked back by the force of the confrontation.
The battle between light and darkness resumed anew. The gigantic demon devoured all light in its path, but Li Feng and the dragon he rode shone with light that eclipsed the brightness of the sun itself.
As the two fighters clashed once more, space cracked like a mirror, causing even the will of the world to react and cordon off the two fighters from the rest of the realm. Half of the cordon flared with darkness; the other half, with brightness.
As Li Feng activated his blood ant and phosphorescent salamander soulshards, his aura magnified once more, now tinged with flecks of red. A white glow spread across his body and condensed at the tip of his sword, augmenting its strength. Li Feng's light seemed, for the moment, triumphant.
"Return to the abyss from whence you came!" As the light concentrated and refracted around Moyan, the flames surrounding Moyan's body seemed to diminish in size and strength. Li Feng smiled in relief, but the flames suddenly flared to an extent even stronger than before, causing an explosion that swallowed up both parties.
The cordon that the will of the world imposed was filled to the brim with black flame, and the cordon itself began to crack. The flames were feeding off the energy powering the cordon.
Li Feng had hardly expected that Moyan would absorb, then explode, the black flames using his body as a conduit.
It was a devastating attack, but one that didn't leave Moyan unscathed, either.
His skin was like cracked pottery—the cost of the blackflame explosion was immense, and chips of skin were falling off his body. It would take him at least a century to recover from an injury of this magnitude.
"But I've won, haha, I've won!"
It had been far too long since Moyan had felt so overjoyed at a victory. After all, there were few fighters who could push him to such an extent.
Glancing at the shattered sky, reminiscing over the battle, Moyan murmured to himself, "As a human, you were a decent opponent. It's unfortunate that I don't know your name, or I'd pay my respects to you. You lost because you weren't vicious enough."
"Ho, vicious? ?My name is Li Feng: remember that!"
Just as Moyan thought that everything was over, he heard a mocking laugh from behind him. Moyan twisted around to see Li Feng standing right behind him in shining armor...
