Silently, wisps of black vapor rose from the insect corpses scattered around Lü Zhong.
A closer look revealed it wasn't vapor at all, but a swarm of minuscule insects.
"This is bad—they're Heartrot Insects! A Spiritual Shield won't work on them. You have to dodge!" Alou's face fell as he urgently warned Lü Zhong.

Lü Zhong gave a cold smile as a ring of fire erupted around his body.
Spirit Forging Fire!
This fire could also be used as a Spirit Fire against enemies.
WHOOSH! The golden flames exploded outward, voraciously consuming everything in their path.
The Heartrot Insects were no match for such intense heat. A series of sharp POPS and CRACKLES filled the air as they were instantly incinerated, turning to ash in moments.
