Starting as a supporting character in Doupo

Page 332

Just as Xiao Fan had wiped out the third patrol team, a sharp sound suddenly came from behind the lava. After a slight pause, the cries of lizardmen suddenly echoed throughout the surrounding lava world.

"Jiji!"

"Chi chi chi chi!"

...........

"boom!"

Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from the central tribe. It was a lizardman whose strength had reached the peak of Dou Huang. Xiao Fan looked at him and saw that his appearance was different from that of ordinary lizardmen.

The scales on his body were a deeper shade of dark red than those of ordinary lizardmen, and his narrow eyes held a furious glint as he scanned the surrounding lava world, seemingly possessing a slight intelligence.

Xiao Fan hadn't expected to be exposed so quickly, but he figured it was because the lizardmen patrolling behind him hadn't made contact and noticed something was wrong, which alerted them. However, Xiao Fan had carefully selected the strength of this tribe: two Dou Zong experts, one three-star and one peak one-star. Apart from that, the strongest of the other lizardmen was only Dou Huang. Even if they joined forces, Xiao Fan was confident that he could take them down before other lizardman tribes could provide support.

"boom!"

No longer concealing his aura, Xiao Fan's eyes turned cold and sharp. Dressed in a long black robe, he moved like a bolt of black lightning. The moment his aura erupted, he appeared in front of the peak Douhuang lizardman and punched him in the chest.

"boom!"

The powerful force sent the lizardman flying, smashing the fiery red rock where he had been resting into dust, before he fell into the lava world behind him, his life force waning.

Xiao Fan's sudden appearance startled the surrounding lizardmen, but they quickly surrounded him from all directions. Their narrow eyes were filled with rage as they raised their weapons and roared at Xiao Fan. Despite their low strength, they fearlessly surrounded him.

"Jiji!"

Just as Xiao Fan was about to collect these low-level fire beads, a slightly muffled voice suddenly rang out. The lizardmen around him immediately stopped what they were doing, stood still, and then bowed down in one direction.

As they knelt in worship, Xiao Fan sensed two powerful auras sweeping out, one strong and one weak, both possessing the strength of the Dou Zong realm.

Xiao Fan looked in the direction from which the energy fluctuations came. Two fire lizardmen with dark red scales flew out from a huge red stone building. Their slender eyes already had a hint of spiritual light, as if they had already gained intelligence.

"Jiji!"

Two lizardmen with the strength of Dou Zong appeared. Looking at Xiao Fan, the lizardman with the strength of only a one-star Dou Zong let out a sharp roar, pointed his finger, and a fiery red trident appeared in his hand. He swung it forward and charged towards Xiao Fan.

Beside it, the lizardman with the strength of a three-star Dou Zong remained calmly in place, his long, thin tongue protruding slightly and twitching constantly, his head exploring the surroundings, seemingly checking if Xiao Fan had any accomplices.

Seeing the lizardman charging towards him, Xiao Fan remained calm. The Thousand Flame Spear appeared in his hand, and chaotic fire spread upwards as he thrust the spear towards the lizardman's chest.

Chapter 53 Annihilating a Dou Zong

"Ding!"

Seeing the lizardman's clumsy attack, Xiao Fan lightly flicked the Thousand Flame Spear in his hand, easily deflecting the trident weapon in the opponent's hand. Then, with a flick of his palm, the Thousand Flame Spear, its spiritual fire, bypassed the lizardman's arm and slashed towards its head.

"grumble!"

In the critical moment, the lizardman held his trident horizontally in front of him, narrowly blocking Xiao Fan's Thousand Flame Spear. The sharp tip of Xiao Fan's spear was only a finger's width away from its throat. If it hadn't blocked the spear, the sharpness of the Thousand Flame Spear and the chaotic fire attached to it could have easily pierced its head.

Xiao Fan looked at the lizardman who had blocked his attack, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected the opponent to be so strong. In his haste, the lizardman had managed to block his attack. However, looking at the location of the Thousand Flame Spear, Xiao Fan's lips curled into a smile: "What a pity, times have changed!"

As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, the chaotic fire emanating from the Thousand Flame Spear in his hand surged instantly. A wisp of chaotic fire spread out from the tip of the spear, like a cold, short blade, and pierced into the lizardman's neck.

"Jiji!"

A sudden chill ran through the lizardman, who disregarded everything else and retreated rapidly. The surrounding lava seemed to become its driving force, pushing it further and further away.

Xiao Fan looked at the bloody hole in the lizardman's neck, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes. Twice now, he hadn't expected the other party to be so lucky.

However, Xiao Fan was not discouraged. This was because it was his first time encountering a lizardman and he was unaware of its special nature. For example, although the lizardman was only a one-star Dou Zong, its strength was extremely powerful. Moreover, even the surrounding magma seemed to be helping the lizardman.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan suddenly remembered the time when he and Xiao Yan were discovered by the lizardmen.

"I see......"

A sudden realization dawned on Xiao Fan's mind. No wonder the lizardman, despite his low strength, was able to discover his and Xiao Yan's whereabouts. It was probably because of the strange nature of the lizardman race, which provided various advantages within this magma world.

"Jiji!"

The lizardman, having barely escaped with its life, had a flicker of panic in its narrow eyes. The bloody hole in its throat seemed to be a reminder that if it hadn't reacted quickly enough, it would have already become a victim of Xiao Fan's gun.

The dark red scales on the lizardman's body gradually began to shimmer with a faint light. The blood hole in its throat twitched and then returned to its original state, just as before.

However, under Xiao Fan's powerful soul perception, he could detect that the aura emanating from the other party had weakened slightly compared to before.

In their brief exchange, Xiao Fan had already gained a considerable understanding of this lizardman.

High strength, adapted to the magma world, and able to recover from injuries extremely quickly, albeit at great cost...

Having recovered, the lizardman was about to make a move when the three-star Dou Zong lizardman behind it, who hadn't yet attacked, suddenly roared. The former was slightly taken aback, and then, under Xiao Fan's gaze, the two charged at Xiao Fan together. However, this time, the three-star Dou Zong lizardman charged in front, while the one-star Dou Zong lizardman hid in the back, his slender eyes constantly scanning Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the three-star lizardman charging ahead. Unlike when he dealt with the former, he was no longer casual about it. A fierce battle aura surged out as he met the attack head-on.

The lizardman's weapon was an extremely long staff made of red stone. Although it struggled somewhat against Xiao Fan's attacks, it was still able to parry them.

The other lizardmen in the tribe watched Xiao Fan fight his opponent and gathered around, raising their weapons and letting out piercing, sharp roars.

"Jiji!"

"Jiji!"

Just as Xiao Fan was fighting against the three-star Dou Zong, the one-star Dou Zong lizardman not far away saw the lizardman gradually falling into a disadvantageous position, stretched out his hand and roared in Xiao Fan's direction. A crimson energy surged from its body and reached Xiao Fan's feet in the blink of an eye, enveloping Xiao Fan in a crimson energy cage.

Xiao Fan was already on guard against it. Looking at the cage that appeared in front of him, he felt that it was somewhat similar to a famous technique from his previous life.

"Break it for me!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent released the cage, Xiao Fan kicked the three-star Dou Zong lizardman in the chest. The chaotic fire attached to his foot made the opponent dare not take it head-on, and the Dou Qi wrapped around it kicked him back.

Immediately, Xiao Fan's dense battle aura enveloped the Thousand Flame Spear, and the already scarlet spear gradually emitted a crimson light, with a vast energy fluctuation surging forth.

Xiao Fan held the spear in his right hand, like a javelin. A wisp of soul power was attached to the spear, and he locked the Thousand Flame Spear onto the lizardman. With a powerful swing, the crimson spear instantly shattered the cage in front of him and, carrying vast energy, crashed into the one-star Dou Zong lizardman.

"boom!"

With a single strike, the crimson spear reached the lizardman and struck the trident it was holding in front of its chest. The weapon was instantly split in two by the Thousand Flame Spear, and the crimson spear pierced through its body. The attack also affected the lizardmen behind it, instantly causing the deaths of dozens of them.

The moment the Thousand Flame Spear pierced through the lizardman, the strange fire it carried instantly incinerated all its life force, leaving a fire bead the size of an infant's fist in the magma.

The surrounding lizardmen fell into a brief silence after this attack, and then roared angrily at Xiao Fan with even greater fervor.

Xiao Fan dodged the counterattack of the three-star Dou Zong lizardman, flew over, grabbed the Dou Zong-level fire pearl and put it into his storage ring. Then, looking at the lizardmen roaring around him, Xiao Fan narrowed his eyes.

"Perfect, I'll use you guys as practice subjects..."

Xiao Fan murmured, and dark flames spread from his body, instantly forming a dark dragon shadow more than ten feet in size behind him.

To avoid making too much noise, Xiao Fan fed the fire pearl into the spatial rift without using his full strength.

As the dark dragon shadow formed, three flames of different colors, but all exuding terrifying energy, flew out from Xiao Fan's body and merged into the dark dragon shadow.

With the enhancement of the three different flames, the aura emanating from the dragon shadow became increasingly terrifying, constantly roaming behind Xiao Fan and emitting loud dragon roars that intimidated the surrounding lizardmen.

"Dragon Extreme Battle Dance, go!"

As Xiao Fan moved, a massive dragon shadow flew past him, instantly encircling the three-star Dou Zong lizardman. Its enormous pupils, one blue and one white, radiated supreme divine power as it stared at the lizardman.

Chapter 54 Fireball Resistance

The enormous dragon shadow surrounded the lizardman in the center, its majestic eyes fixed on him, with two flames, one blue and one white, constantly appearing in the dragon's eyes.

"Jiji!"

Sensing the fluctuations emanating from Long Ying, the three-star Dou Zong lizardman showed a human-like astonishment on his face. Energy surged within him, and the dark red scales on his body gradually emitted a scorching light.

"Ang~"

With a roar, the dragon shadow, under Xiao Fan's control, no longer hesitated. It opened its massive teeth, spewing out a burst of scorching energy. Flames instantly erupted from its eyes as it inhaled and exhaled energy. As it did so, the dragon's figure spun rapidly, enveloping the lizardman in the center, surrounded by the energy it spewed out.

"boom!"

A violent explosion roared, and scorching energy swept outwards. Most of the weak lizardmen around were killed by the ripples of the explosion from this Dou Zong-level expert. Only a small number managed to escape, but they were all now slumped in the lava, motionless.

In the center, the lizardmen had disappeared, and the magma had been completely cleared by Xiao Fan's attack, creating a vacuum zone over a hundred meters wide. The surrounding magma was rolling back, and in the very center, a bright red fire bead radiating intense fire energy remained in place.

Xiao Fan reached out and absorbed the fireball, which flew towards him and landed directly in his hand.

"Such concentrated fire elemental energy..."

Upon obtaining the Fire Pearl, Xiao Fan immediately sensed its rich energy, his eyes brightening slightly. The other lizardmen were of low strength and far inferior to Xiao Fan, which was why they hadn't been of much use. However, this lizardman's strength had reached the three-star Dou Zong level, not much different from Xiao Fan's, and it could probably provide him with a significant boost.

After putting away the fire bead, Xiao Fan did not absorb it immediately. Instead, he focused his attention on the fire lizardmen around him and the fire beads in the magma world.

With the Dou Zong dead, Xiao Fan showed no mercy to the lizardmen. His figure twisted and contorted, and in just a few minutes, the remaining lizardmen were all turned into fire beads, which Xiao Fan collected.

Finally, Xiao Fan looked at his gains with considerable satisfaction: two fire beads at the Dou Zong level, three fire beads at the Dou Huang level, and dozens of fire beads below the Dou Wang level.

Xiao Fan's gaze swept over the red stones where the lizardmen lived. He reached out and picked up a stone. After examining it, he found that these stones also contained a lot of fire-attribute energy. Although they were not as good as fire beads, they were still rare and top-quality items in the outside world.

After annihilating the lizardmen, Xiao Fan carefully examined the tribe and then stored the red stones where the two Dou Zong and several Dou Huang lived into his storage ring.

The energy of these red stones varied in strength, and the one inhabited by the powerful lizardmen was clearly the one with the most concentrated energy.

After seeing that there was nothing of value left in the tribe, Xiao Fan left.

Two lizardmen at the Dou Zong level. Xiao Fan didn't know if the lizardmen's tribe would notice their annihilation. Just in case, after leaving the tribe, Xiao Fan hid in the lava.

Having concealed his aura once again with Chaos Fire, Xiao Fan's storage ring flashed, and a fire bead the size of an infant's fist appeared in his hand.

Looking at the fire bead in his hand, which contained rich fire attribute energy, Xiao Fan no longer hesitated. He activated the Nine Stars Shining Sun Technique within his body, and the energy in the fire bead was gradually absorbed by Xiao Fan.

[Battle Aura +10]

After Xiao Fan finished absorbing the fire bead from the one-star Dou Zong fire lizardman, he could clearly feel his Dou Qi value increase.

"It increased my battle qi by ten points...."
