Gold Everywhere, Fire Dragon at the Bottom of the Valley
Chapter 48 Gold Everywhere, Fire Dragon at the Bottom of the Valley
"Why don't we leave? This fire is too terrifying!" Zhao Manyan started to back out again.
The appearance of the fire was indeed unexpected, and they had not received any information about it.
Logically speaking, there should be predecessors who have experienced this kind of thing and recorded it.
"I've heard of this kind of fire calamity. It only happens once every few years. Once you survive one, it's gone forever. Moreover, this fire calamity is a baptism for the entire northern corner of Zhuoyuan, and it will give birth to many rare and precious materials!" Chen Ying explained.
Mo Fan and Lingling's gazes immediately fell on Chen Ying, which seemed quite strange.
Gojo Satoru naturally sensed the strange atmosphere, but he was too lazy to ask. What mattered was confirming whether there were any resources available.
He closed his eyes and quickly spread his mental perception outwards, instantly covering all objects within a hundred miles.
"You're right, after the fire calamity descended, this scorched plain was filled with rare and precious materials," Gojo Satoru said, opening his eyes.
"Holy crap, is this for real?" Zhao Manyan's courage instantly returned when he heard that there was something there.
"Really, there are fragments of spirit seeds and spirit seeds of all kinds!" Gojo Satoru nodded.
"Then our chances of finding Yan Ji are slim," Lingling said bitterly.
"It doesn't matter. With money, you can get other contracted beasts with higher bloodlines. Without money, you have nothing," Gojo Satoru said irritably.
Yes, why is it so important to find Yan Ji?
If they had obtained several spirit seeds, or some other, even rarer fire-attribute resources...
They also returned with a full load; such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is truly rare in this world.
"That's right, let's hurry up and find it!" Mo Fan was also as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
"You guys use the element detector, I'll use my mental perception to search. Splitting up will yield more results."
After a brief explanation, Gojo Satoru used his spatial abilities to harvest the pre-seen locations.
Mo Fan and the others had no objections. They had already delayed Wu Tiao Wu somewhat, and now that things were in this situation, they would definitely reap greater rewards by splitting up.
Each spirit seed is worth between 1500 million and 3000 million. If we find a few more, we'll be rich this time!
…………
Somewhere in the Scorching Plains, a silver flash that seemed to disappear into the sky and then into the earth constantly traversed various cracks, caves, and demon lairs.
Everything of value that they pass by will be taken away.
Demons and similar creatures are often unable to directly refine spirit seeds for their own use like humans do; they need to absorb the energy emitted by the spirit seeds.
Only after one's body has become completely familiar with this spiritual seed can one swallow and refine it in one go.
Therefore, it is best to plunder all of this spirit seed when it is first born.
After some effort, Wu Tiaowu collected nearly one hundred million spirit seed fragments using his storage magic artifact. He also obtained three earth-type spirit seeds, seven fire-type spirit seeds, and some miscellaneous magic stones.
Anyway, everything valuable was collected by Gojo Satoru into his storage magic artifact. As for whether there were anything more valuable deep inside, he felt there were.
However, having been terrified of poverty, Gojo Satoru had no intention of letting go of this resource, and would accept even a fragment of a spirit seed.
It's practically a vacuum cleaner, but Gojo Satoru isn't vacuuming up dust; instead, he's vacuuming up countless valuable resources.
Fifteen minutes later, the area in that direction had been completely cleared out by Gojo Satoru.
Just as Gojo Satoru was heading to the next area, Rokugan sensed an incredibly dense elemental fluctuation.
It only exhibits elemental fluctuations but lacks any signs of life, making it clearly an inanimate object, and very likely a high-value resource.
After hesitating for a moment, Gojo Satoru followed the elemental fluctuations he sensed and went to investigate.
After a few minutes of travel, they soon approached the source of the elemental fluctuations.
But what lies before Gojo Satoru is a bottomless chasm.
Standing on top and looking down, you can only see a few hundred meters ahead; below that is complete darkness, and you have no idea how deep it is.
But the wind and waves blowing out of the crack felt indescribably hot, as if it were the fire that had blown in before!
But this was just the wind and waves blowing out of the crack, while the previous one was a fire calamity that only occurs once every few decades.
Looking down into the abyss, Gojo Satoru felt a sense of unease; this rift valley might not be so easy to traverse.
Moreover, if it takes too long, we won't be able to take care of Mo Fan and the others.
Should we go down?
"Seriously, why worry so much? Just hurry up and go down and get the treasure up, that's all."
Gojo Satoru adjusted his breathing, then leaped into the abyss!
To be on the safe side, the unlimited surgical technique is fully and without blind spots.
They quickly descended several hundred meters, by which time the light could no longer reach the bottom.
However, the rift valley remained empty and bottomless.
Gojo Satoru quickly covered his six eyes with demonic energy, maximizing his vision.
The temperature at the bottom of the valley rose higher and higher, and the scorching heat could melt any intruder.
Fortunately, the unlimited technique in its fully activated state could insulate against the temperature, which allowed Gojo Satoru to escape unharmed.
Puff puff puff ~~~~~
Just then, ripples appeared behind the all-encompassing, limitless technique.
Gojo Satoru glanced around and recognized the uninvited guests.
Bat-like demons?!
Before Gojo Satoru, a swarm of black shadows, flashing with scarlet light, flew towards him.
Spatial power surged, and countless spatial blades reaped the bat swarm.
However, the bats were so numerous that killing one batch only resulted in another, as if they could never be eradicated.
They hadn't eaten for a long time, and now that they'd finally found a blood pack, they weren't about to let it go.
In an instant, the bats, like moths, recklessly pounced on Gojo Satoru.
Gojo Satoru flew and killed as he went, but the swarm of bats relentlessly pursued him.
"Since you're tired of living, I'll grant your wish!"
Gojou's killing intent was resolute, and the purple ball popped out from his hands.
boom! ! ! !
In an instant, the illusory mass formed by the virtual form exploded, obliterating everything around it!
The swarm of bats of unknown rank was blasted to smithereens, and the rift valley itself was shaken so violently that it seemed on the verge of collapse.
Gojo Satoru unleashed his full power, accelerating his sprint to its maximum speed as he charged downwards from the center.
It eventually landed safely at the bottom of the valley.
This fiery abyss is like a place abandoned by the world, extremely hot and littered with white bones.
Gojo Satoru could tell that these skeletons were the bones of animals that had been roasted alive by the temperature here.
Without lingering, Gojo walked towards the source of the elemental energy, passing through a corridor.
In the distance, a reddish-gold lava lake could be seen, its surface shimmering with a crystalline luster, clearly indicating that this was no ordinary object.
Just as Gojo Satoru was about to get closer, a colossal creature soared up from the scorching magma!
A fire dragon, several times larger than the original giant lizard pseudo-dragon, appeared out of nowhere, its terrifying pressure sweeping across the entire area.
Seeing the suddenly appearing crimson dragon beast, Gojo Satoru remained calm and composed.
For someone who had fought against a demon of the Silver Sky Lord's caliber, this dragon beast was far from being something to be afraid of.
It seemed that he sensed Gojo Satoru's disdainful gaze.
The dragon opened its mouth wide and spewed out a ball of crimson flame, which hurtled towards Gojo!
Without any fear, Gojo Satoru flashed forward and charged towards the raging fireball that was as fierce as the sun!
"Healing—Physical Enhancement!"
With a flash of white light, Gojo Satoru had already blocked the fireball head-on. In front of the huge fireball, his figure appeared extremely small.
With his white hair flying wildly and his domineering aura unmatched, he threw a punch that unleashed tremendous power, completely neutralizing the power of the flame bullet!
