"boom!"
With a violent explosion, this ancient ruin, which had existed for countless years and had harmed countless lives, was finally destroyed.
Looking at the collapsed ruins, Lu Li thought for a moment, and finally flicked out a wisp of flame, igniting the ruins.
He only left after there was not a single trace of the ruins left, and following the marks, he found Ling Mufeng and his group.
Looking at the crowd gathered in the distance, Lu Li did not show himself directly. Instead, he sent a telepathic message to Ling Mufeng and waited where he was.
A short while later, Ling Mufeng was seen talking to someone next to him, then broke away from the group and came over.
Upon seeing Lu Li, a rare hint of urgency appeared on his usually indifferent expression: "Senior Brother, are you alright?"
After saying that, he carefully looked Lu Li up and down to see if he was injured or anything, since he had also heard the deafening noise from over there.
As the senior brother, Lu Li understood Ling Mufeng's temperament quite well, so he let the other party look him over and let his actions show him that he was fine.
Only after Ling Mufeng breathed a sigh of relief did he ask the purpose of his visit: "I came to ask you what your plans are for the future."
"Plan?" Ling Mufeng was momentarily stunned by the sudden change of topic, but he quickly recovered: "Qi Yongsi and I are planning to return to our sect to participate in the power ranking competition."
In fact, among their group, he was an inner disciple of the Liuyue Sect, while the others were either core inner disciples of the Hunyuan Sect or the Hehuan Sect, each with their own information channels.
Sure enough, not long after leaving the Forgotten Palace, they learned about most of the major events that had recently occurred on the Rainy Continent.
Although they were quite shocked, they naturally wouldn't miss such a major event as the power ranking competition, which was related to the future resources of their sects, especially under the current circumstances.
When Lu Li heard that he was planning to return to the sect to participate in the ranking competition, he nodded in approval: "That's good, you really should go back."
Before he could finish speaking, Ling Mufeng understood the implication behind his words, and a look of surprise appeared on his usually indifferent face: "Senior Brother, aren't you going back now?"
"Yes, I have some important things to take care of."
"And what about the junior sister?"
“She followed me.”
"Alright, then be careful, senior brother."
"Okay, you can keep this storage ring. I'll be going now."
"Okay, thank you, Senior Brother."
"Um."
Then, the conversation between the two disciples came to an abrupt end. Lu Li left with the sweet potato in his pocket, while Ling Mufeng watched his figure disappear into the distance for a while before returning to the group.
As for what Lu Li was going to do, he didn't ask, nor was he particularly curious. The things his senior brother and master did were always shrouded in mystery, and he was already used to it.
So, Ling Mufeng, back in the team, quickly left the Blazing Volcano with his teammates, and then they dispersed and returned to their respective sects.
The next time we meet will probably be when we compete in the power ranking tournament.
Meanwhile, under Shushu's command, Lu Li had the little fire spirit lead the way, walking almost directly through the Fiery Volcano.
In just a few days, they passed through the inner perimeter of the Fiery Volcano and arrived at the foot of an inconspicuous active volcano on the other side.
Yes, the Traceless Miasma does not grow inside the Blazing Light Volcano; it actually grows quietly in a very inconspicuous small volcano on the outer perimeter.
Moreover, hidden beneath this small volcano is the Fire Spirit King of the entire Fiery Volcano, which is the main reason why the Traceless Miasma grows on the outer perimeter.
After all, the Traceless Miasma is a fire-type spiritual plant. The denser the fire spiritual power, the better it grows. And in this Blazing Volcano, where else can the fire spiritual power be denser than around the Fire Spirit King?
However, as someone who knows that both the Fire Spirit King and the Traceless Miasma are here.
As soon as Lu Li and Shushu stepped into the foot of the volcano, they felt the temperature here, which was significantly higher than in other places.
As they climbed higher, the surrounding temperature became increasingly scorching.
The ever-increasing temperature finally made Shushu unable to resist taking off the clothes and hat she had insisted on wearing, revealing the almost fully grown fur underneath, before she felt a little more comfortable.
Tianluo had already slipped back into his spatial dimension and hidden away before even getting close to the volcano.
As for Lu Li and Little Fire Spirit, a fire-type phoenix and a fire spirit, the temperature not only didn't make them uncomfortable, but on the contrary, they felt very comfortable.
Lu Li was alright, but the little fire spirit eventually started to devour the dense fire spirit power around it, turning the original little fire spirit into two.
At the end of the meal, Little Fire Spirit let out a big burp right in front of Shushu, which almost made Shushu cry. Waaah, she really wanted that kind of constitution too.
Unfortunately, she didn't. On the contrary, she was so hot that her mouth was dry and she was sweating profusely. But as soon as the sweat came out, it was evaporated by the surrounding heat, so Shushu could only desperately drink water.
In the end, Lu Li saw that she was really suffering from the heat, so he asked Xue Ling for help and got her some handmade ice packs, which made Shushu feel much better.
The group continued, guided by Shushu, slowly climbing to the top and then slowly descending to the center, still inside the bubbling crater.
Perhaps the Fire Spirit King inside also sensed the threat, or perhaps he simply wanted to drive away the people who came.
As they entered, the volcano boiled even more violently, constantly pouring lava over them in an attempt to scare them away or seriously injure them.
Unfortunately, with Lu Li and Little Fire Spirit around, the magma couldn't amount to much. Before it even reached them, the Little Fire Spirit had already drained all the fire element from it.
Not only that, the little fire spirit also threw the cooled lava back, which was extremely annoying, making the fire spirit king hidden under the boiling lava very angry.
If it hadn't known it was no match for the little fire spirit, it almost would have jumped out and fought it.
However, they couldn't fight. Even if the Fire Spirit King of the entire Fiery Volcano was beneath the magma, it was still just a little brother in front of a divine fire like the Little Fire Spirit.
After all, this Fire Spirit King was created after the Rain Rain Continent was downgraded, and it is not a match for the Divine Fire. Naturally, it cannot fight the Little Fire Spirit to a draw like the Snow Spirit.
Therefore, no matter how angry the Fire Spirit King was, it could only hide under the magma and cause trouble in secret, and dared not show its face at all.
They even had to hide themselves well, lest they be discovered and taken away along with everyone else.
At this moment, the Fire Spirit King still thought that Lu Li and Shushu were just like the others who came in before, looking for resources. It just needed to hide well and wait for them to leave.
They had no idea that people were actually after it and the Traceless Miasma.
