Although Wang Zheng said he was stingy, he still had Nan Fengyi burn all the scarabs in the cage with [Nanming Fire].
I was lucky; out of 10 scarabs, I obtained 5 spirit crystal bombs that had already changed shape.
Although he had already made a prediction in his mind, Wang Zheng was still somewhat excited when he saw the five golden spiritual crystals in Nan Fengyi's hand.
"I knew it would work, Aunt Nan. Quickly test whether this spirit crystal will explode after it leaves you."
Without hesitation, Nan Fengyi flicked her finger and sent the spirit crystal in her hand flying toward the distant alloy target.
But just like the Candle Flame Spirit Crystal that Wang Zheng threw out, the golden spiritual energy crystal burst forth with violent golden flames as it flew out, and it even exploded in mid-air before it reached the target.
The golden light that exploded then expanded into clusters of golden flames in the air, and after exhausting all the spiritual energy within, it scattered into sparks and disappeared.
All that remained was the violent shockwave, which swept outwards from all sides of the room.
The spirit crystal made with the [Southern Bright Fire] was even more volatile than Wang Zheng's Candle Flame Spirit Crystal. Seeing this, Wang Zheng felt a pang of regret but also breathed a sigh of relief.
Such experiments are sufficient to demonstrate that any elemental energy supplemented by this special energy seems to possess characteristics that are difficult for ordinary people to access.
This means that even if new special energy is discovered in the capital, at least his "Candle Flame Project" won't be abolished so quickly.
Seeing that her black crystals had the same effect as Wang Zheng's, Nan Fengyi couldn't help but show a disappointed expression.
Because she knew that this was not only the country losing a stabilizing weapon, but also her own loss of an opportunity to fight for her daughter's interests.
Wang Zheng looked at Nan Fengyi, who was standing there in a daze, without thinking much about it. He was still thinking about testing the difference in the destructive power of the two kinds of spirit crystal flames.
So he reached out and touched the golden spirit crystal in Nan Fengyi's hand.
Wang Zheng first tried to directly store the spirit crystal in her hand into his storage space.
With a thought from Wang Zheng, Nan Fengyi indeed lost a golden spiritual crystal.
Seeing the situation before him, Wang Zheng was overjoyed and immediately summoned the spiritual crystal again.
However, things didn't go as planned, and as expected, things went wrong. The fact that they were able to collect the items normally was entirely because they hadn't left Nan Fengyi's control.
The spirit crystal in his hand exploded instantly, giving Wang Zheng no chance to throw it away.
In an instant, the pure golden Southern Bright Fire enveloped his palm and then tried to spread upwards along his wrist.
However, the spiritual energy within the spirit crystal was limited, and before it could expand, it was immediately suppressed by the candle flames emanating from Wang Zheng's body.
It's true what they say, fortunes change, and today it's my turn.
The previously bullied Zhu Yan now turned the tables, instantly devouring the golden holy flame. It then smugly twisted a few times before disappearing into Wang Zheng's body.
Wang Zheng was looking at the charred skin and muscles on his right hand, carefully experiencing the sensation of being enveloped by the [Nanming Fire].
First, there's the temperature. Although it didn't reach the legendary extreme effect of burning everything, it's about the same as the current candle flame.
Secondly, there's the domineering aspect, the kind of domineering attitude that says, "I'm going to burn everything with the most intense heat in a dignified and upright way."
However, it lacks the sinister characteristic of [Nine Yin Candlelight], which allows it to absorb spiritual energy to replenish itself, so it is slightly inferior in terms of endurance.
In terms of overall practicality, this golden spiritual crystal is still somewhat inferior to Wang Zheng's Candle Flame Spirit Crystal.
Of course, this is only a comparison after it has been transformed into a spiritual crystal.
At this point, neither Wang Zheng nor his [Nine Yin Candlelight] were significantly inferior to Nan Fengyi and her [Southern Bright Fire].
Otherwise, Wang Zheng wouldn't be injured right now.
Didn't you see that Nan Fengyi was perfectly fine when she tested the Candle Flame Spirit Crystal, while Wang Zheng almost burned his hand after just one try?
This was only because Wang Zheng had a strong physique. If Zhu Yan hadn't reacted quickly and taken the initiative to resist before Wang Zheng could even give the order, he probably wouldn't have been able to save the skin and flesh on his hands.
After comparing the power of the two spiritual energy crystals, Wang Zheng casually summoned a ball of holy light and then put his right hand into it.
As he felt the cool, refreshing sensation in his hands and his skin began to heal, Wang Zheng asked Nan Fengyi, who was still frowning:
"Aunt Nan, this is what I used to make a deal with the people in the capital. Do you want me to help you communicate with the project manager of the Jingnan Military Region stationed there?"
Hearing Wang Zheng's words, Nan Fengyi shook her head with a wry smile.
After all, she already knew the whole process of Wang Zheng's transaction with the Imperial Capital Military Region.
Nan Fengyi also knew that Wang Zheng, the first person to try this approach, had failed to get the capital to agree to the exchange. Instead, she changed her story and gave the Demon King's inner core to Chu Tianxing.
Even if I try to talk to him again, the final result will definitely be the same.
Moreover, as a master of manipulating flames, she already knew the national perception of this new type of energy weapon the moment she saw Wang Zheng take out the Candle Flame Spirit Crystal.
Not to mention that the spirit crystals she created using the [Southern Bright Fire] were actually less practical than the black spirit crystals of the kid in front of her.
Therefore, Nan Fengyi was well aware that she had little leverage in negotiating with the capital.
We need to rethink this matter and plan for the long term.
After sighing, Nan Fengyi finally decided to handle it herself.
"Wang Zheng, thank you for this. Auntie owes you a favor. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. As long as it's something your Uncle Bai and I can do, we definitely won't refuse!"
"Auntie, you're too kind. I didn't really help much."
Hearing Nan Fengyi say this, Wang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, he didn't know that the capital would agree to his request in that way. If it happened again, even if it was just to exchange an inner core, it's hard to say whether the capital would agree.
Not to mention that this also involves the existence of Master Bai, the Demon King.
It's certainly a good thing that this bigwig is willing to handle it himself.
Nan Fengyi then continued:
"I need your help to keep today's events a secret. Don't spread the word about my special flame ability for now..."
Wang Zheng nodded immediately and made a gesture as if he were zipping up his mouth.
"Don't worry, I may not have many other merits, but I'm extremely discreet. No one else knows about your special flame, not even our principal!"
