Chapter 720 - 720 Deep In
The group of people advanced carefully, keeping their guard up.
After seeing the divine light that even a Quasi-Saint could not block, many people chose to retreat.
This was not a place they could explore. They did not have the keen soul perception of Lin Mo and the others.
However, there were still some bold and skilled people who continued to follow Lin Mo and his group from a distance.
Lin Mo was completely unbothered by this. They eventually arrived at a swamp that was filled with a rancid smell.
There were more than a dozen fifth Sky King demonic beasts with their bloodied mouths wide open, ready to cause them trouble.
“Oh, it’s the Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotus. There’s actually such a treasure in the center of the swamp,” Xia You said in surprise.
They quickly took care of a demonic crocodile and retrieved its inner core.
After coming to the depths, they found that there was a Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotus, and it was not of a low grade.
“It’s not any worse than the one we ate,” said Mao Zhu and Song Lianxue.
“Eh, is the Qilin here?”
Suddenly, Xia You turned around and looked at Lin Mo’s waist. She could feel a wave of life energy there.
In the next moment, a Qilin egg that glowed with a purple light flew out of the universe bag on Lin Mo’s waist.
When the Qilin mark appeared, the Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotus was drawn by it and showed signs of melting.
“What else do you need besides this?” Lin Mo asked hurriedly as he took out all the divine medicine that he had taken away from others and stored in the system space.
These things had been part of Gongsun Wenhao’s collection. He had originally planned to auction them.
However, as long as the Qilin needed it, he didn’t mind feeding her all of it. It was fine as long as this little girl grew up smoothly.
“Buzz…”
As if it was responding to Lin Mo, the Qilin egg began to shake. A ray of light flickered and attracted the three divine medicines.
These were three Level 3 Heaven-class divine herbs, the highest grade among them.
In addition to the Level 5 Heaven-class Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotus, a huge amount of spiritual qi gathered and integrated into the Qilin egg.
However, the Qilin did not wake up as expected.
She remained in a deep sleep, and the Qilin egg flew back into the storage bag, covering all its qi activity and making it impossible to check on her.
“I’m sorry, let’s just say I’m accountable for taking this divine medicine.”
Lin Mo looked at Mu Yuzhu and Xia You. The three of them were working together with him, not with him as the leader. He had taken advantage of them this time.
“If you lack resources, you can take my share,” said Xia You as she shook her head.
She had a lot of divine medicine and spiritual stones with her, which had been given to her by the elders of the sect before she left.
She could tell from the ancient books how much the God Devouring Body lacked resources.
In addition, Lin Mo had been collecting spiritual stones like crazy ever since he was born. The Lin family’s auction, the Purple Moon Palace, the Molin Chamber of Commerce…
“How can you do that? You…” Lin Mo merely shook his head.
Unexpectedly, Xia You stopped him by saying, “You should hurry up and become stronger. Don’t fall too far behind me…”
As she said this, she had a slightly strange expression on her face. She looked at Lin Mo and chuckled as she shook her head.
“What are you hiding from me?” Lin Mo asked.
However, he didn’t get an answer. All he got was a sentence, a sentence that made him grit his teeth…
“I’ll tell you if you win…”
These words made Lin Mo gnash his teeth with frustration, wishing he could suppress her on the spot.
However, he also knew that unless he broke through to the King tier, he would not be Xia You’s match.
Although the Heaven’s Will Body and the God Devouring Body were both the strongest body types, the God Devouring body was only really terrifying in its later stages…
In the early stages, it only brought him some convenience in fighting. Other than that, it brought him endless trouble…
“The fire elements in front of us are increasing. It looks like a volcano…”
After walking for a while, Mao Zhu and Song Lianxue spoke at the same time as they sensed the abnormality ahead.
“Not only that, the escape route seems to have been cut off…” said Lin Mo. He gestured for everyone to look behind them. Behind them, the swamp had been completely destroyed.
Beams of five-colored divine light appeared, densely packed, and blocked all the escape routes.
The group of people frowned. There was no way to retreat. If the road ahead was blocked, they were afraid that something would happen.
“Roar!”
With a series of roars, there was a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy in front of them. The small group flew forward.
They soon discovered that there was a huge volcano in front of them, and the battle was at the top of the mountain.
When they flew up, they couldn’t help but be shocked because the demonic beasts that were fighting immediately pounced on them upon seeing them.
“Fire Lizards, a demonic beast that lives in groups. Its realm isn’t high,” said Feng Tian as he tried to determine the species of these demonic beasts.
However, just as he finished speaking, a lizard lunged at him.
“No, these fire lizards have mutated. They’re at a very high level…”
He immediately responded in shock. The weakest of the fire lizards here was a fifth-level King and there were over a hundred of them here. At this moment, all the people in their small group were united against a common enemy that wanted to surround and kill everyone.
“There must be a Supreme fire-based treasure at the bottom of this volcano,” said Lin Mo. These fire lizards would not mutate for no reason.
...
“BOOM!”
The fire lizard group was a pack of demonic beasts that excelled at surrounding and killing, but Lin Mo, Xia You, Mu Yuzhu and the others took action.
However, even if they didn’t cooperate, they would still be able to defeat the army of fire lizards.
In less than ten minutes, the lava lake had turned red.
“They don’t have inner cores, and even their souls are very weak.”
Mao Zhu and Song Lianxue declared that they would be in charge of cleaning up the battlefield and counting the spoils of war, but they found nothing.
“There’s a formation here. Break it and you’ll see the treasure,” said Xia You as she made a move, shattering a spatial node with a single palm strike.
Lin Mo and Mu Yuzhu had also shattered several other parts of the volcano, causing the entire volcano to begin to shake and show faint signs of an eruption.
“Here we go…” Lin Mo was looking forward to it. What kind of treasure would it be this time?
At the mouth of the volcano, a stone platform slowly emerged from the magma. On the stone platform, some strange vines were planted.
There were some fruits with flames burning on them.
...
There were many fruits, but only the three at the front were considered ripe. The fire element in them was the most dense.
“I’ve never seen this kind of divine fruit before. What is it?”
Mao Zhu and Song Lianxue looked at Lin Mo. They knew that Lin Mo’s appraisal skills were extraordinary, so they looked to him for his help.
“Let me take a look…” Lin Mo waved his hand and plucked the three ripe fruits before storing them in the system space.
[ Mutated Fire Spirit Fruit, Heaven realm Level 4. The fire element within is too dense, only immortal Dao divine fire can refine it. ]
[ Without the Immortal Dao’s flames, if one is forced to consume it, the soul will adhere to the fire poison, causing one’s intelligence to be obliterated. ]
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo understood. These fire lizards had eaten this kind of divine fruit, which was why they had become violent and often fought among themselves.
However, their instincts had driven them to live in groups and eat fruits, which led to the current situation…
“This is a Mutated Fire Spirit Fruit,” said Lin Mo as he told them others about the fruit.
When they heard that they needed Immortal Dao flames to refine it, Xia You and Mu Yuzhu frowned at the same time. They didn’t have any Immortal Dao flames.
Besides, the fruit wasn’t the most suitable for them…
“We can cultivate it,” said Mao Zhu and Song Lianxue as a wisp of flame appeared in their hands.
That was the Nirvana Phoenix Fire, the flame of the Immortal Dao. After it was completely activated, it could burn mountains and boil seas with just a wave of the hand…
“This time, it’s mine and the next treasure will be for Miss Mu.”
Xia You requested for the Fire Spirit Fruit to be given to Song Lianxue and Mao Zhu.
