Chapter 1084 Abandoned World (7)
The moment that the ball of water was about to hit the ball of flames, there was a tiny flame that came out. This tiny flame positioned itself so that it was right between the ball of water and the large ball of flames.
The ball of water seemed like it would have no problem putting out this tiny flame, but…
When the ball of water made contact with the tiny flame, it immediately evaporated and didn\'t leave a single trace behind.
But still, that wasn\'t the end of that.
After the ball of water had evaporated, the tiny flame just floated there in the air. It didn\'t return back to the ball of water like the other flame shot out had. It just floated there as if it was searching for something.
Then all of a sudden, it shot out in the direction the ball of water had come in.
It shot out at Lin Fan who was standing there.
Lin Fan had already expected this, so he quickly dodged out of the way.
But then he found that the tiny flame didn\'t let him off with just that.
He had already expected to come backwards though since he knew that it would return to the ball of flame. So he easily dodged out of the way again and the tiny flame quickly went past him.
However, it didn\'t go back into the larger ball of flames.
Instead, it suddenly boomeranged around and started flying at him again.
Lin Fan was caught off guard this time, so he wasn\'t able to fully dodge out of the way.
The flame grazed the side of his arm because he had been caught off guard and he couldn\'t help wincing when he felt the pain that came from it. This was a very bad burn that had even cauterized the wound instantly after hitting him.
It was more than enough to show just how hot this tiny flame was.
Lin Fan didn\'t dare let his guard down and follow the conventions of before. Instead, he kept his eyes on the tiny flame and followed it closely as it flew around the room.
As it flew past him after burning him, it turned around again and came at him once again.
After he dodged it a few more times, Lin Fan recognized that this tiny flame was locked onto him and would keep following him no matter how he dodged it. It seemed that the only way to escape this flame was to come up with some kind of method to take care of it.
So he raised his hand and gathered more balls of water to shoot at this tiny flame that was coming at him.
But that didn\'t have any effect at all.
In fact, it was almost as if it had annoyed the tiny flame as it became faster with each ball of water it evaporated.
Lin Fan was finding it harder and harder to keep up with this tiny flame until he found that he wasn\'t able to shoot more balls of water at it. The only thing that he could do at this point was dodge out of the way of the tiny flame.
Even though it was clearly burning its own power to move around chasing Lin Fan like this, it didn\'t slow down at all.
It was almost as if as long it didn\'t catch him, it would never run out of power.
So Lin Fan knew that continuing to dodge it like this wasn\'t a solution.
Unless he figured out a way to take care of this tiny flame, it would be impossible for him to get out of this.
In the end, Lin Fan had no choice but to face the tiny flame head on.
But of course, it wasn\'t that he was planning on using his body to resist it.
Instead, he raised his hand and gathered a black hole there that he was planning on using to absorb the tiny flame with. This black hole was formed from the void laws that he controlled.
He knew that since he couldn\'t stop it with other things, the only real thing that he could do was absorb it.
This tiny flame didn\'t stop or even slow down when the black hole was brought out. It continued charging forward as if it didn\'t even notice the black hole that had been brought out to face it.
Then it charged right into that black hole.
When the tiny flame made contact with the black hole, there was a moment of equilibrium.
This tiny flame wasn\'t able to continue moving forward to slam into Lin Fan, but at the same time, it also wasn\'t absorbed by the black hole. It seemed like there was something inside of that tiny flame that was stopping the black hole from absorbing it.
But this equilibrium didn\'t last forever.
Soon, the equilibrium between the two forces finally collapsed and the form of the tiny flame started to collapse as well.
It didn\'t take long before parts of the tiny flame flowed into the black hole and the tiny flame itself started to break up.
The bits of the flame flowed into the black hole and then disappeared without a trace.
Eventually, all of the tiny flame disappeared from view and it was swallowed by the black hole.
After the tiny flame disappeared, Lin Fan couldn\'t help knitting his brows.
That was because…he felt something familiar inside of that tiny flame when the black hole absorbed it.
He couldn\'t help turning to look at the ball of flame that was there and he couldn\'t help narrowing his eyes. He looked carefully at the ball of flame as if there was something there that caught his attention, but he wasn\'t sure if it was right.
However, after looking at it for a bit, he was certain of one thing.
"It\'s a bit smaller." He muttered to himself.
It was only a tiny bit, but he could see that the ball of flame on the ground was a bit smaller than before.
It seemed that by absorbing the tiny flame, he had absorbed a bit of the power of the ball of flame.
Seeing this, Lin Fan knew what he had to do next.
But at the same time, there was something about this ball of flame that made him want to do this.
Lin Fan gathered his breath before slowly walking towards the ball of flame. As he walked forward, his hands were at his side, prepared to come up and release the void laws when he needed them.
When he reached the distance that activated the ball of flame, there was movement that came from it before it shot out a smaller ball of flame just like before.
But unlike last time, Lin Fan didn\'t dodge out of the way.
Instead, he lifted his arm and gathered a black hole in his palm.
When the ball of flame made contact with that black hole, Lin Fan couldn\'t help wincing his face. At the same time, he couldn\'t help taking a step back because of the force of this ball of flame.
But in the end, he was able to endure it and the black hole started draining bits of the ball of flame. There was a flow of energy from the ball of flame that went right into the black hole.
As the energy flowed from the ball of flame into the black hole, the ball of flame itself began getting smaller and smaller until it was just a tiny wisp.
At that time, the tiny wisp of fire was swallowed up by the black hole completely and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Fan had to take a deep breath after this since the energy that he absorbed…was a bit too much for him to take in all at once.
This was just like the room earlier where there was too much life energy.
So in the end, he had no choice but to divert that energy into the black hole in his dantian which grew once more.
He could feel the power of the void laws getting stronger again.
But at the same time, there was something different about it.
It felt much more complex compared to before, but it wasn\'t because it was being fed the energy from the ball of flame that it became this way.
No, it was because of this ball of flame, but it was also because of a different reason.
It was because earlier when he absorbed that tiny flame, Lin Fan had noticed something familiar from it.
That was right, there was a trace of void law in that tiny flame.
That was why it was able to get faster when it evaporated the balls of water that he had shot at it.
It hadn\'t just burnt away the water, it had also absorbed the life energy that had been contained within those balls of water, making it a part of itself.
That gave it even more power and more speed.
Lin Fan didn\'t know where this void law came from, but he was certain that there were void laws inside of this ball of flame.
After the ball of flame had been absorbed by the black hole, there was a visible change with the larger ball of flame.
It had shrunk by quite a bit once the ball of flame had been absorbed.
It seemed that if he absorbed a bit more…it would completely disappear.
So Lin Fan took a deep breath to adjust himself and then he started moving closer to the ball of flame.
As he expected, there was another ball of flame that was shot at him.
