Although he was in hiding, Yun Che still did not dare to be careless and cautiously approached the cave in a roundabout way.
After walking at a fairly large right angle, Yun Che stepped on the red ground. A burning sensation suddenly came from under his feet, quickly spreading throughout his body, making him instantly feel as if he was standing on fire.
This Flame Dragon had existed here for at least a hundred years, and the power of its flames had already turned this place into a world of fire elements. He was only about one kilometer away from where the Flame Dragon and Burning Heaven Sect were fighting, which was already a very dangerous distance, and the aftermath of their battle could easily reach here.
Yun Che walked carefully, but his speed did not slow down at all. Jasmine had said that this fire dragon was clearly hiding its strength. If its strength exploded and killed the five people from the Burning Heaven Sect, then he would not only not be able to profit from the chaos, but he might even lose his life.
But the most comforting thing was that the Flame Dragon obviously didn't want its habitat to be harmed, and not only had it been deliberately keeping a distance, but it also tried its best not to let the attack force hit this direction. After Yun Che detoured to the north side of the cave, he tensed up and rushed to the cave entrance at the fastest speed, getting closer and closer to the cave. After dozens of breaths, he was only about ten feet away, and he was safe all the way.
The target was within reach, but at this moment, a large piece of flames suddenly fell from the sky, covering the area of several miles around. Although these flames were not large and not very aggressive, they were extremely dense. One of them fell directly on Yun Che.
Suddenly, Yun Che's shirt quickly caught fire. After being attacked, the effect of the Star Hiding Pill disappeared instantly. Fortunately, Yun Che reacted quickly enough and quickly dodged behind a huge rock on his left hand side. He put out the flames on his clothes and his brows completely sank.
Oops…
The concealment effect of the Star Hidden Pill would disappear immediately when he was attacked or touched by other people. If he came out from behind the stone, he would be easily discovered whether he rushed into the cave or retreated to his original place. And if he hid here, when Yanlong came back after repelling the people from Burning Heaven Sect, he would also be discovered immediately.
This time, he was almost in a state of certain death!
Boom! !
A ball of fire dragon from the Flame Dragon suddenly descended from the sky and impacted the ground less than a hundred meters in front of Yun Che. With a loud bang, the fire dragon exploded, bringing with it flames that shot up into the sky and terrifying temperatures that almost melted the rocks.
The moment the flames exploded, Yun Che's eyes widened suddenly behind the boulder...
Chance! !
The next moment, Yun Che rushed out from behind the boulder like an arrow shot from a bow, his profound energy fully unleashed, and he rushed towards the cave at the fastest speed he could reach. The blaze that shot up into the sky blocked the sight of Yan Long and the Burning Heaven Sect members looking over here. The huge energy fluctuations were enough to completely suppress his weak profound energy, not to mention that they would not dare to be distracted in the fierce battle... Therefore, Yun Che boldly released all his profound energy...
The distance of several dozen meters was undoubtedly a matter of life and death for Yun Che at this moment. He watched the gradually fading flames with the corner of his eyes, clenched his teeth, and wished he could put all his will into his legs. In the midst of the danger, time seemed to slow down all of a sudden, and the entrance of the cave was also slowly approaching him. In the last section of the distance, he took a deep breath, pushed off the ground with his legs, and leaped into the cave...
The moment he flashed into the cave, the fire completely disappeared, and the scene of the fierce battle between the Flame Dragon and the five Tianxuan appeared clearly before his eyes again.
Standing behind the scalding boulder at the edge of the cave entrance, Yun Che was panting heavily, sweating all over, and his face was flushed red, whether because of the burning heat or excitement, he didn’t know.
"Huh... I finally got in." Yun Che patted his chest and muttered to himself with lingering fear. After calming down a little, he slowed down his pace and walked into the cave.
The body of the Flame Dragon was huge, so the cave it inhabited was naturally huge. Yun Che was alert and walked slowly forward. The temperature here was much higher than outside. Every step Yun Che took, large drops of sweat would fall on the ground. The moment the sweat drops hit the ground, they turned into white steam with a slight "chi" sound.
It was unknown how deep this cave was. As Yun Che went deeper, the light gradually dimmed. After walking a hundred steps forward, a red light suddenly appeared in front of him.
Yun Che paused for a moment, then quickened his pace and walked over. When he saw the source of the red light, his eyes suddenly emitted a scorching light.
"Fire Spirit Grass!!"
The mature Fire Spirit Grass is about seven inches tall, with shallow rhizomes and usually nine leaves. It emits fire in the dark and only grows in places where the fire element is dense, active and pure. Therefore, it is extremely rare. At the same time, the growth of Fire Spirit Grass is very slow, and it often takes more than ten years to reach maturity, which also makes the value of mature Fire Spirit Grass extremely high. Fire Spirit Grass can be refined into Fire Spirit Pills alone. After taking it, people will have a large degree of immunity to the fire element within a certain period of time, and can temporarily turn the mysterious power in the mysterious veins into fire attributes without any negative effects such as burning themselves. For the Xuan practitioners who practice the fire-based Xuan Gong, the effect is even more immeasurable.
There were two to three hundred of these rare and valuable Fire Spirit Grass growing here, and nearly a quarter of them were in the mature stage. There was also a large area with only roots and stems left in the back. Obviously, these Fire Spirit Grass were the food of the Flame Dragon.
Another reason why the Fire Spirit Grass was so precious was that it was not easy to pick and store. If one was not careful, the Fire Spirit inside would leak out completely. However, this was not a problem at all for Yun Che. He stretched out his left hand and frantically grabbed the mature Fire Spirit Grass, and easily put all of them into the Sky Poison Pearl.
Any Fire Spirit Grass could be sold at a very high price outside, but at this moment, Yun Che was harvesting them in large quantities like cabbages.
Soon, more than fifty mature Fire Spirit Grasses were all collected by him into the Sky Poison Pearl, and Yun Che did not touch any of the immature ones. He rubbed his palms together, and secretly exclaimed in his heart: I've made a fortune!
If this is sold to Fentian Sect through an intermediary, what a huge income it would bring!
Then you don’t have to worry about having no money to spend anymore!
Yun Che took out a piece of Fire Spirit Grass that he had picked and quickly tempered it with the Sky Poison Pearl. The Fire Spirit Grass quickly shrank under the tempering light of the Sky Poison Pearl and finally turned into a very small object that looked like a ruby. Yun Che threw it into his mouth without thinking.
A burning sensation slid through his mouth and into his body. Then, this burning sensation quickly spread outward from his body, spreading to his entire body in the blink of an eye. Then, this burning sensation slowly disappeared... Even the surrounding space suddenly became less burning. Yun Che's hot sweat stopped flowing, and the feeling of suffocation and heat disappeared without a trace.
Yun Che's body suddenly felt much more relaxed. The cave still hadn't reached the end, so he quickened his pace and walked inside. Not long after, a huge rock nest appeared in front of him. Judging from its size and shape, this was obviously where the Flame Dragon usually rested and slept.
But what disappointed Yun Che was that the lair of this flame dragon was quite clean. Apart from the scorching rocks that made up the lair, there was nothing else.
Boom boom...
A huge roar suddenly came from outside. Standing in the deepest part of the cave, Yun Che could vaguely feel a scorching wave of air rushing towards him. The heavy voice of Yanlong came from outside:
"Ignorant and greedy human beings, prepare to receive the punishment you deserve!"
Then came the panicked voices of the people from Burning Heaven Sect:
"Ah! What's going on? Why did its power suddenly..."
“This… this Flame Dragon is not a Sky Profound Beast at all! This is clearly a King Profound Beast! It has been hiding its strength just to lure us to this place!”
"Oh no! The intelligence is wrong. Retreat! Retreat quickly!!"
Jasmine's words came true. The Flame Dragon had indeed been hiding its strength, and at this moment, it finally released its true strength. Amid the panicked shouts of the Burning Heaven Sect members, the ground began to tremble... even the entire Red Dragon Mountain Range was faintly trembling. Yun Che's heart suddenly shuddered. The Flame Dragon began to exert its true strength, which meant that the battle might be over soon. If he didn't leave now, he might not have a chance to leave!
Fifty mature Fire Spirit Grasses, this was already a huge harvest. Yun Che no longer hesitated and rushed out quickly. However, after he had just taken three steps, his heart suddenly skipped a beat... and his steps also stopped abruptly.
"Why are you stopping? If you don't leave now, are you waiting for the Fire Dragon to burn you to ashes?" Jasmine shouted coldly.
Yun Che did not react to Jasmine’s words. He turned around, covered his chest with his hands, and stared blankly at the empty stone nest… It was the same feeling as before, and this time it was very close…
What is calling me...
Yun Che did not leave at full speed, but instead walked back to the stone nest and walked into the nest. His heartbeat also suddenly accelerated at this time.
Yun Che stared around, and finally, his eyes were fixed on the corner on the far right of the nest. The rocks here were all countless years old, hard and old, but there was a stone there that was spotless, as if it was moved frequently. Yun Che quickly walked over, put his hand on the stone, and moved it with force.
The stone fell down in response, and a crimson light suddenly appeared in Yun Che's sight.
This was a very small round bead, the size of an ordinary glass ball, as crystal clear as a ruby, but the light it emitted was much deeper and richer than that of a ruby. Looking at this red round bead, Yun Che felt a strong desire for no reason in his heart. Driven by this desire, he quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed it directly.
"Don't touch it! It has the mark of the Fire Dragon's flame power on it!!"
Jasmine’s reminder was a little late. Just as she shouted, Yun Che’s hand had already grasped the round bead.
Instantly, the round bead seemed to be awakened, and suddenly emitted an extremely strong red light, so strong that it enveloped Yun Che's entire body.
