Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System-Chapter 650 - 650: Foxy

Saryx's reptilian eyes turned red, while the other went black from his own blood.
He grabbed the fire fox's jaw with one claw and pried, forcing the soul beast's mouth open by brute strength.
The fox's white flames burst upward and wrapped the claw, biting and chewing at it from every angle, but Saryx didn't even flinch.
His other claw slammed down on the fox's skull.
BAM!!!
The fox's head cratered into the ground. White flame blew outward like a shockwave, and its body flickered hard, almost turning transparent.
Alex's heart clenched. He poured more lifeforce on instinct, forcing the fox to stabilize before it dispersed.
Saryx's tail whipped like a black spear.
BAM!!!
It smashed into the fox's ribs and sent it flying. Two tails snapped into sparks midair, then regrew thinner as the fox forced itself back together.
The fox staggered up.
Its flames flickered like a candle in a storm, but it still moved, coming for Saryx's throat with everything it had left.
Saryx met it head-on.
CRACK!!!
He drove his horns into the fox's face and slammed it down again.
The ground split under the impact, and white flame splashed outward in a messy ring.
Mingyue's eyes widened. "It seems he lost his mind."
She could feel it clearly now. Saryx was just crushing everything with raw power.
Saryx's four wings spread wide. The veins inside them flared black-green, and his aura surged out in a violent wave.
BOOOOM!!!
The wave erased Mingyue's remaining lotus lines in midair and tore across Alex's gravity field like paper.
Mingyue cut the air and slid through a purple line, appearing at Saryx's wing joint again.
Her twin blades flashed, thrusting into the same spot.
CLANG!!!
Her strike landed, but Saryx's aura erupted from the wing like a volcano. The purple ice peeled away in layers, and Mingyue's arms went numb from the backlash.
She crossed her swords and forced a void lotus to bloom, only meant to lock the wing for a single instant.
Saryx flapped his wings down and spun his body, using the wing joint like a hammer.
The wing edge smashed into Mingyue's lotus and shattered it, then continued through and slammed into her shoulder.
BOOM!!!
Mingyue flew back and rolled across the ground, leaving a long scar in the dirt. She stopped on one knee, breathing hard, both swords still in her hands.
The fire fox hit Saryx from the side.
It bit into his neck at the wound line where frost had cracked the scales earlier.
White flame poured into the bite, trying to burn from the inside.
Saryx roared and caught the fox by the throat.
Its nine tails thrashed wildly, lashing his wings, his neck, his legs, trying to force him to loosen his grip.
Saryx didn't bother to block.
He dragged the fox down and used the ground like an anvil, smashing it again and again.
BAM! BAM!
Each impact scattered the fox's flame farther, and each recovery become slower with thinner flame.
'Damn it!! I can't give it any more lifeforce.'
Alex could feel the fire fox had already reached its limit. Pouring more now would only make its soul dissipate faster.
Saryx lifted the fox with one claw and flung it.
BOOOOM!!!
The fox crashed across the clearing, tumbling through broken earth and shattered trees. Its body flickered violently, barely holding shape.
Saryx turned toward Alex.
Red aura crawled off his scales like smoke.
His four wings lifted, and the space above him folded.
Mingyue moved to Alex's side, with raised blade.
Saryx took one step forward. The ground cracked under his weight.
Then he vanished.
He appeared right in front of Alex and drove his claw down.
Alex raised his blood hammer, but the impact still forced him back, boots carving deep into the ground.
Saryx didn't stop. His claws tore forward in a chain of blows, each one stronger than the last.
Alex blocked two, then the third slipped past the angle.
SLASH!!!
Saryx's claw raked across Alex's hand.
With one attack it tore trough Alex's protection rune and qi, cutting his flesh, tearing his hand apart.
Alex's could feel the, but he didn't scream.
His body already react curing the wound.
The hand regrew in a blink of eyes, new skin and bone forming under rune light, still bleeding heat.
Saryx's eyes went redder.
The other eye, the one stained black from his blood, started to glow too.
He attacked again, nonstop.
Mingyue stepped in to block.
Her twin swords crossed, purple ice blooming into a shield.
CLANG!!!
The hit blew through her guard and sent her flying back. She dug her blades in to stop herself, arms shaking from the force.
She didn't waste time.
Her eyes locked on Saryx's wounded eye.
She cut the air and slid through a purple line, appearing on his flank.
Her blades flashed, aiming straight for the damaged socket.
Saryx's wing snapped outward like a blade.
The strike didn't hit her, but the pressure alone threw her off balance and shoved her away.
From the side, the fire fox staggered back into the fight.
It was barely holding together, flames flickering, tails wavering like smoke.
It still attacked and wrapped itself around Saryx's waist and legs, trying to pin him down.
Saryx barely even looked at it.
He flexed his aura, and the violent energy surged through the fox's body like a flood.
The fox shook hard, its flames scattering, its form thinning again.
It was completely outmatched now.
"ROARRR!!!"
"Foxy!" Alex shouted, and the moment he spoke, the fire fox looked at him.
Their eyes met.
The fox's flickering body steadied.
The wavering flames tightened and turned solid again, as if it gathered every remaining fragment of itself into one final shape.
Its nails grew sharper, lengthening into white-hot claws.
They pierced through Saryx's hard scales.
Saryx's body jerked from the sudden pain.
He tried to surge his aura again, but the fox didn't loosen.
The fox's body swelled.
It expanded unevenly, whiteflame stuffing into the shape until the outline looked strained, ready to split.
Alex's took a deep breath. He understood what it was about to do.
The fire fox let out it final roar.
Then it exploded.
