Flame Dragon Fruit
Yang Xiao was taken aback when Ancestral Dragon Ring trembled. Due to them being where devils were sealed, he was worried something happened. Yang Tian, to the contrary, was used to it.
“Uncle Xiao, it is nothing new for Ancestral Dragon Ring to tremble.”
“Haha, something must’ve happened. With that said, the adept is here, so I would like to think nobody ran into trouble.”
The adept in the palace was powerful and full control over his flame technique, making him the devils’ undoing. They wouldn’t act rashly.
“Adept?”
“The Fire Source I told you about before. After cultivating for ages, he’s attained a human form. He could practically throw his weight anywhere on Eastern Continent. The Fire Source guards this place.” Confident he could protect Yang Tian if need be, Yang Xiao suggested, “Let’s go and take a look. I’m fairly sure something happened.”
The black mist swaying the void resembled a tornado. Skeletons were visible at the location of the black mist.
“This evil aura must be the devils!”
The place Ancestral Dragon Ring pointed to was where the devils gathered.
“I suppose they’ve returned. Judging from the signs, somebody has successfully broken down the formation.”
“Uncle Xiao, shall we investigate.”
“We definitely have to, but not now… A large group of adepts have arrived outside. I hope they can stop the situation from going further downhill.” Yang Xiao surveyed the surroundings then smiled. He summoned his Azure Celestial Flame. “Absorb!” Yang Xiao commanded, moving the void and summoning a red fire spirit on the mountain peak.
The best catch in Pill Flame Domain was a fire spirit for they could enhance pill flames, though one required a divine soul with senses developed enough to detect them hiding deep in the earth’s core.
Yang Xiao chuckled. Seven to eight fire spirits appeared from the mountain peaks within the blink of an eye. Golden Crow Divine Furnace vibrated and sealed the fire spirits that entered. Yang Tian was elated because the fire spirits were Mystic Flame rank.
The two subsequently went to catch dozens of fire spirits in the mountains. Yang Xiao gazed at the peak of a mountain thirty-three kilometres high with a grin on his face. His Azure Celestial Flame melted even mountain peaks, creating a passageway to the core of the earth, the lava domain. Dead centre was a stalactite. In the centre of said estate was a twenty-four metres tall fire-red tree on fire, yet the leaves were clear. On the tree were twelve fruits the size of a fist with flames wreathing around them. They grew exclusively where flames were collected and was hard to grow.
Yang Xiao burst out in laughter. “Never did I imagine a flame dragon fruit grew here! Lucky!”
Cultivators in ancient times craved flame dragon fruits. They were magical and could be flipped for high profits.
Smiling, Yang Xiao gently flicked his hand, slicing the stalactite and levitating the area over three hundred square kilometres large. “Follow me.” He flicked out a sky-blue fire spirit much more potent than the previous catches from underground. “Hahaha, the red fruit is flame dragon fruit, a treasure for body refinement. You’ll see when you use it.”
Yang Xiao transferred the tree to Ancestral Dragon Ring. It quickly took root, catching Xiaobai and the divine herb’s attention.
Seeing Xiaobai steal the fruit, the divine herb slapped him on the head. “Hey!”
Xiaobai licked his mouth once he finished eating. His fur turned red when he gazed at the remaining fruit dropped on the ground. He suddenly spat flames, frightening the divine herb. Xiaobai’s drunken state put a smile on her face.
