Chapter 1069
Scorching Plains North Corner
The view of the northern corner of Zhuoyuan unfolds before us.
This is a world completely opposite to the pale landscape of the Sand River.
The crimson earth stretched to the horizon, as if the earth itself were on fire.
The rocks were charred black, with a dark red glow shining through the cracks.
The heatwave in the air distorted vision, and even breathing could feel the restlessness of the fire element.
"This is the North Corner of Zhuoyuan?"
Mo Fan looked into the distance, a hot wind blowing in his face, carrying the smell of sulfur and ash.
As a fire mage, he could clearly sense the fire element in the air, which was so active it was almost boiling, causing the stardust within his body to tremble slightly.
Zhao Manyan was already drenched in sweat.
"How could anyone survive to get into this godforsaken place? I feel like I'm about to be roasted alive."
According to records, the surface temperature in the northern corner of Zhuoyuan is usually between 60 and 80 degrees Celsius, and may exceed 100 degrees Celsius in the central area.
Lingling stared at the data on the tablet.
"But correspondingly, this place is rich in fire and earth elemental spirit seeds, especially high-quality fire elemental spirit seeds, which are very popular in the outside world."
Fu Ye raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
Five minutes later.
He got up and went back into the car.
"Not going in?"
Mo Fan asked, puzzled.
"Do whatever you want, but it's best to stay here and not wander around."
Although Fu Ye didn't have much affection for Mo Fan, this chosen one, he at least wouldn't really drive him to a dead end.
Fu Ye shrugged, reclined his chair, closed his eyes, and began to rest.
Seeing this, Lingling climbed into the passenger seat without asking any further questions.
She understood Fu Ye; he never did anything without a purpose.
The main reason for not going in now is that there might be some trouble inside.
Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan exchanged glances, but dared not question it.
The two could only stay inside the car, relying on their righteous spirit to resist the high temperature.
Time passed slowly amidst the scorching heat.
One hour, two hours later, as sunset approached, the scenery at the northern corner of Zhuoyuan began to change.
The earth, which was originally just a dark red color, gradually lit up with more and more points of light.
The howls of demons echoed from the depths, rising and falling.
Something's not right.
Lingling suddenly sat up straight, feeling as if the air around her had become unusually thick.
Fu Ye, who had been resting for a long time, also woke up at this time.
The next second, ice-blue surfaces suddenly appeared beneath him and Lingling, and Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan, who were on the verge of heatstroke, almost burst into tears upon feeling this rare coolness.
"Holy crap! Professor Fu Ye, you're so cunning! Did you spend the whole afternoon using ice magic to cool things down?!"
Upon hearing Zhao Manyan's voice, Lingling glanced at him with utter disdain.
"Otherwise, we didn't forbid you from using ice magic."
Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan were speechless, but they really couldn't blame them.
After all, they weren't going the same way. If Fu Ye hadn't led them across the Sha Wang River, it would have taken them at least three to five days to reach the northern corner of Zhuoyuan.
far away.
The clouds are turning dark red at a visible speed.
The next second, Fu Ye started the off-road vehicle again and drove several thousand meters into the Sha Wang River.
soon.
The sky has cracked open.
It's not a metaphor.
The sky at the northern corner of Zhuoyuan was indeed cracked with countless dark red fissures, and what poured down from the cracks was not light or rain, but a waterfall of flames.
Thousands upon thousands of streams of fire descended from the sky, each several meters in diameter. Upon impact, they exploded not with sparks, but with fireballs exceeding ten meters in diameter. Instead of extinguishing upon landing, these fireballs rolled, spread, and devoured everything in their path, as if alive.
"What is this thing? It's exploded like that!"
Lingling's voice trembled; this time, it was genuine fear.
"It's very simple, this is the fire calamity that occurs once every ten years."
Fu Ye then began to explain these "common sense" facts to Lingling.
Upon hearing Fu Ye's description, Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan felt a chill run down their spines.
Good guy.
If they venture deep into the northern corner of the Scorching Plains, they will most likely be burned to ashes by this terrifying fire!
The firefall lasted for a full three minutes.
In those three minutes, the North Corner of Zhuoyuan turned into a living hell.
Those demons that roam here.
For example, the Red-scaled Giant Lizard, the Lava Giant Turtle, and the Fire Feather Bird, whether at the Warrior or Commander level, were all fleeing frantically.
However, 30% of the demons cannot escape and will become nourishment for the northern corner of the Scorching Plains after they die.
The flames chased after them as if they were alive, the streams of fire turned in the air, and the fireballs bounced on the ground.
A firebird with a wingspan of over twenty meters attempted to soar into the sky, but was annihilated in mid-air by three streams of fire, turning into a sky full of sparks.
Purgatory.
This is true purgatory.
Mo Fan's face was ashen.
As a fire mage, he knew the terror of those flames better than anyone else.
Zhao Manyan was too frightened to speak and could only cling tightly to Mo Fan's arm.
Lingling was using her specially made camera to record the scenes unfolding before her.
Fu Ye simply watched all of this with a calm expression.
After all, for him, the flames here were not even as loud as the commotion caused when Xiao Yan absorbed the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame in the Battle Through the Heavens world.
It can only be described as having the power of a drop of water.
Not long after.
The firefall finally began to subside.
The cracks in the sky slowly closed, and the last wave of flames swept across the already unrecognizable earth.
however.
Where the flames have receded, there is not scorched earth.
On the earth, where the corpses of the demons that had been burned to death began to appear as specks of light.
Essence and spirit.
It wasn't the faint speck of light of a servant-level demon, but rather the fist-sized essence left behind by a warrior-level or even commander-level demon after its death.
And the most precious parts of the demon's body.
Many of the reverse scales of the Red Scaled Giant Lizard, the core shell of the Lava Giant Turtle, and the crest feathers of the Fire Feather Bird were not only not damaged in the flames, but were instead refined to become even purer, radiating alluring energy fluctuations.
"The fire calamity consumes all living beings, but for mages it is a rare treasure."
At this moment, Lingling looked at Fu Ye with great curiosity.
"You knew all along that the fire calamity would strike today?"
Hearing Lingling's question, Fu Ye helplessly shrugged.
"When you reach my level, let alone this fire calamity, it wouldn't be difficult for you to create a fire calamity artificially."
"Huh? Artificially creating a fire disaster? But with your strength, it seems you really can do it."
Lingling held her still-developing chest with both hands, her proud expression showing no sign of fading.
Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were still immersed in the earth-shattering scene they had just witnessed, and it took them a long time to come back to their senses.
soon.
Fu Ye woke them up directly.
"Alright, the northern corner of Zhuoyuan is now full of treasures. I'm only giving you twelve hours to collect them. After twelve hours, I will take everything away. Understand?"
Upon hearing Fu Ye's words, Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan were taken aback at first, then exchanged a glance. (End of Chapter)
