Chapter 931: Melt Bright Fire Seed
Melt Armor Dragon, dragon-type and fire-type dual-attribute King-level pet beast, it is said that it lives in magma all year round, likes to use magma to take a bath, its scales are filled with fire energy, every period of time the high heat flame circulating in its body will erupt from the gaps of the scales... Qiao Sang's mind flashed with the information of the pet beast that drilled out of the magma, her heart suddenly tightening.
Didn't expect there to be a dragon-type pet beast that reached the King level here.
You know, the evolution cycle of dragon-type pet beasts is long.
In beast taming society, beast tamers who can contract dragon-type pet beasts basically have thick family backgrounds, don't lack resources, and eat the best energy pills, but even so, wanting a dragon-type pet beast to evolve to the King level basically means the beast tamer is aged from green to late years.
A wild King-level dragon-type pet beast, how many years must it have lived... Qiao Sang felt more and more dangerous the more she thought.
Also, such a long distance, did it sense something?
Clearly not a psychic-type pet beast...
Just when Qiao Sang's various thoughts were flashing, Melt Armor Dragon opened its blood basin mouth, yawned, and drilled back into the magma.
Qiao Sang: "..."
"Move to the farthest place," Qiao Sang changed her original idea.
She now also considers herself knowing why there were no fire-type pet beasts on both sides 12 kilometers away, since she knew it was because of Melt Armor Dragon, then there was no need to move specially to its side, she didn't want to deal with a wild King-level dragon-type pet beast.
And it's a dragon-type and fire-type dual-attribute one.
"Xunxun~"
Little Treasure Hunter also saw the scene of Melt Armor Dragon drilling out of the magma, it felt its beast tamer's choice was very correct, and immediately performed positioning.
The group disappeared from where they were out of thin air.
The fire-type pet beasts on both sides looked at each other, and then revealed expressions like "where did they go", "I don't know either", "who cares", and continued to lie quietly.
Silence, death-like silence.
Except for the "gurgle gurgle" sound of bubbles occasionally rising on the magma, there was no other movement.
"Senior Qiao, the atmosphere here seems a bit different..." Clearly there were no fire-type pet beasts around, but Guo Ruiqi inexplicably felt it was even more terrifying than the first section of the road they entered.
"Don't worry, I'll leave after sensing," Qiao Sang said this with some lack of confidence.
Melt Armor Dragon was at a place about 12 kilometers away when entering, here is 15 kilometers away, not far but not too close to Melt Armor Dragon, even if it wants to come over, the time during this period is enough for Little Treasure Hunter to perform transfer again.
But just like Guo Ruiqi said, the atmosphere here gives people a kind of indescribable terror, as if some terrifying existence is watching here from somewhere.
"Did you see anything when you were empathy positioning just now?" Teacher Mi Jiala swept a glance at the magma next to her and asked in a deep voice.
"Melt Armor Dragon," Qiao Sang said the truth.
Guo Ruiqi was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes, horrified.
What?
Melt Armor Dragon?!
"But it's okay, it's at a place three kilometers away," Qiao Sang continued.
Guo Ruiqi breathed a sigh of relief, he just said, how could Senior Qiao be so unreliable, directly moving them to the side of Melt Armor Dragon.
"Are you sure?" Teacher Mi Jiala stared at the magma and asked.
What does that mean? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, and looked along her line of sight.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
The bubbles of the magma kept rising, the boiling magma began to appear whirlpools, as if some behemoth was about to appear underneath.
"Yaya..."
Like Ya Bao stared fixedly at the position of the magma whirlpool.
Seeing large pieces of fiery red scales in the whirlpool, Qiao Sang's pupils shrank, realized the danger, and shouted:
"Go!"
"Xunxun!"
Little Treasure Hunter's eyes flashed with blue light.
The next second, the group returned to the original place.
Below the magma, a pair of black indifferent eyes looked at the position where the few figures were staying before, and closed their eyes.
The whirlpool gradually disappeared, and the magma returned to calm.
Below the broken ground, a dozen fire-type pet beasts looked at the few figures that suddenly returned, looked at each other, revealed expressions like "how did they come back again", "how would I know", "who cares", and continued to lie quietly uninterestedly.
How could it be, how could Melt Armor Dragon appear there... Qiao Sang recalled the scales that just appeared, her brows locked, falling into deep thought. 【931-
The scales on the Molten Armor Dragon were too unique, especially since she had just seen them earlier; there was absolutely no way she could have misidentified them.
But clearly, according to the positioning, the Molten Armor Dragon's location was about three kilometers away from where Little Xunbao had transferred.
Little Xunbao had set its position, and moving there would take at most about a second; the Molten Armor Dragon is not a Psychic-type pet beast, so how could it possibly arrive three kilometers away in such a short time?
Unless it also had Psychic-type attributes... Once this thought emerged, Qiao Sang's heart trembled, and she subconsciously dismissed the notion.
Impossible, absolutely impossible; where would you find a pet beast with these three powerful attributes—Fire-type, Psychic-type, and Dragon-type—combined? It's not like it's a legendary pet beast.
But if the Molten Armor Dragon doesn't have Psychic-type attributes and can't teleport, then how did it manage to reach three kilometers away in such a short time?
"Senior Qiao, what should we do now?" Guo Ruiqi saw that they had returned to the original spot, and seeing Qiao Sang not speaking for a long time, he couldn't help but ask.
Qiao Sang pondered for a few seconds and said:
"Let's go out first."
Now that their strongest combat power, Lubao, hadn't recovered its energy, and the situation with that Molten Armor Dragon was still unknown, she didn't dare to take the risk.
Teacher Mi Jiala frowned slightly and said:
"We're leaving just like this?"
Qiao Sang gave an "Mm."
Guo Ruiqi immediately stated his position: "I'll listen to Senior Qiao!"
Hearing this, Qiao Sang felt somewhat gratified.
It doesn't matter if teammates are weak; it's enough that they listen to arrangements at critical moments.
Being cautious is fine, but it's a pity their sensitivity to resources is too low... Teacher Mi Jiala sighed and finally said:
"I suspect there is a Molten Bright Fire Seed beneath this magma."
Molten Bright Fire Seed? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, instantly forgetting about leaving, and turned her head to look.
"What is a Molten Bright Fire Seed?" Guo Ruiqi asked.
"The source of the magma, which is the initial origin that can produce this expanse of magma." Although it was Guo Ruiqi who asked the question, Teacher Mi Jiala looked at Qiao Sang as she explained:
"It is said that any pet beast that can absorb the Molten Bright Fire Seed can awaken Fire-type attributes and even no longer fear magma."
Guo Ruiqi said in astonishment:
"That awesome? What about Water-type pet beasts? Can they also awaken Fire-type attributes if they absorb it?"
"If they can absorb it, then yes," Teacher Mi Jiala said.
"Xunxun?"
Once these words were spoken, Little Xunbao immediately showed an interested expression and floated over.
What about Ghost-type? What about Ghost-type?
Teacher Mi Jiala didn't know what Little Xunbao on the side was expressing and continued:
"Moreover, in places with a Molten Bright Fire Seed, every once in a while, a crystal called a Molten Bright Crystal will be produced in the surrounding magma. The Fire-type energy contained within it can allow the vast majority of Fire-type pet beasts to evolve. I suspect that the group of Flame Night Birds we encountered earlier used Molten Bright Crystals."
Guo Ruiqi was hearing about such a magical thing for the first time; his thirst for knowledge exploded, and he asked:
"With so many Fire-type pet beasts here, has no one gone to absorb the Molten Bright Fire Seed?"
"That also requires a pet beast capable of absorbing it," Teacher Mi Jiala said slowly. "Not all pet beasts can absorb the Molten Bright Fire Seed. If they don't have a certain level and a robust physique, they will directly explode and die."
That's terrifying... Guo Ruiqi was somewhat frightened.
"Xunxun..." Little Xunbao immediately lost interest in this Molten Bright Fire Seed.
Qiao Sang listened to the conversation, was silent for a moment, and asked:
"Do you think the Molten Armor Dragon is capable of absorbing the Molten Bright Fire Seed?"
Teacher Mi Jiala pondered for a moment and said:
"There is a certain probability, but the Molten Bright Fire Seed can even allow the Molten Armor Dragon to evolve to the Emperor level. If there really is a Molten Armor Dragon here, it probably wouldn't absorb it casually."
"Is it also a forced evolution?" Qiao Sang asked again.
Teacher Mi Jiala smiled and said: "The Molten Bright Fire Seed doesn't have such powerful might to force an evolution on an Emperor-level pet beast."
Once these words were spoken, Qiao Sang was almost 80 percent certain that what allowed Like Ya Bao to successfully evolve was this Molten Bright Fire Seed.
After all, Like Ya Bao's evolution path is unknown, and here, only the Molten Bright Fire Seed is the most precious.
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang's heart couldn't help but beat faster, and all sorts of thoughts emerged:
Should she go and snatch the Molten Bright Fire Seed?
But the Molten Armor Dragon lives in the magma and must know of the Molten Bright Fire Seed's existence; can she snatch it from it?
But there is a high probability that Like Ya Bao used the Molten Bright Fire Seed to evolve in this vicinity afterward.
It's just that the time is not yet certain.
Now that the location and the resources for evolution are suspected to be determined, could it be that Like Ya Bao evolved in this very secret realm?
This, is it possible?
Just as Qiao Sang's various thoughts were flashing, Teacher Mi Jiala spoke up:
"I'm planning to collect some Molten Bright Crystals. If you help me, I can forgo the reward you first agreed to."
Qiao Sang reined in her thoughts, stared at "Xu Gehong" for a few seconds, nodded, and said:
"That's fine, but before that, I want to see all your pet beasts to have an estimate of your combat power."
Teacher Mi Jiala's expression stiffened, then she returned to calm, sighed, and said:
"I won't hide it from you; actually, I have a few outside the secret realm, and I only brought the Hidden Stealth Shield and the Speed-Sleep Bird in."
The Speed-Sleep Bird glanced at Teacher Mi Jiala: Liar.
Teacher Mi Jiala looked at the Speed-Sleep Bird indifferently.
"Speed-Sleep!"
The Speed-Sleep Bird's body stiffened, and it nodded vigorously, indicating that was indeed the case.
To be hiding things like this even at a time like this... Qiao Sang nodded and said:
"I understand. Let's go out first to recover. Once the energy in the pet beasts' bodies has recovered, we'll come back down."
Actually, that was her intention earlier; the Molten Armor Dragon is indeed terrifying, but as long as Lubao and Like Ya Bao have fully recovered their energy, plus Little Xunbao's spatial movement, it's not impossible for her to retreat unscathed.
Guo Ruiqi had no objections; he knew that even if he offered an opinion now, it wouldn't be of any use.
Finally got it done... Teacher Mi Jiala let out a sigh of relief.
The three returned to the surface.
Little Xunbao took out energy recovery liquid and distributed it to them respectively.
Like Ya Bao drank the energy recovery liquid.
Lubao drank the energy recovery liquid while performing energy regeneration.
Qiao Sang remembered the function of the Molten Bright Crystal and had Little Xunbao take out a fine-tipped tool, using telekinesis to control it to pierce a hole in the Everstone, thread it, and wear it around Like Ya Bao's neck.
"Ice Emperor."
After about three hours, Lubao nodded, indicating it was ready.
Qiao Sang stood up and said solemnly:
"Let's set off."
"Ya!"
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao's eyes glowed with blue light.
Immediately following, the group arrived below once again.
This time, the Fire-type pet beasts on both sides were too lazy to even glance at them.
"Molten Bright Crystals grow in magma that has a Molten Bright Fire Seed; the closer to the fire seed, the more there are. Sometimes they are brought out by the activity of the magma and ejected," Teacher Mi Jiala said, staring at the magma.
"These Fire-type pet beasts are probably all waiting for the Molten Bright Crystals to be ejected."
If only one could enter the magma... Qiao Sang stared at the magma, pondered for a few seconds, suddenly thought of something, and said:
"Like Ya Bao, try extending your claw and see if you can withstand it."
"Ya!"
Like Ya Bao let out a cry, then walked to the edge of the magma without hesitation and extended its claw into it.
This action caused the surrounding Fire-type pet beasts to look over one after another.
"Ya-ya!"
Two seconds later, Like Ya Bao withdrew its claw and let out a cry, indicating it was hot, but comfortable.
It seems the training of the Flash Fire characteristic over the past period wasn't in vain; having reached A-level, the Flash Fire characteristic can already resist the temperature of the magma... Qiao Sang felt a surge of joy in her heart and prepared to climb down from Like Ya Bao.
"Steel Sword."
Gangbao noticed its Beast Tamer's action, came to the side, and let out a cry, indicating for her to come onto its back.
The temperature on the ground was already this hot, let alone the ground on both sides of the magma.
Qiao Sang did not refuse.
Gangbao curled its wings and carried its Beast Tamer onto its back.
"Like Ya Bao, go down and look for Molten Bright Crystals," Qiao Sang said.
After a pause, she added:
"They are black-red crystals."
"Ya!"
Like Ya Bao let out a cry, indicating it understood, then turned its head and jumped into the magma.
Seeing this, the Fire-type pet beasts on both sides could no longer sit still and stood up one after another with astonished expressions.
Some Fire-type pet beasts even came to the edge of the magma and carefully probed inside with their claws.
Without exception, they all quickly retracted their claws and let out miserable shrieks.
Qiao Sang sat on Gangbao's back, sensing Like Ya Bao's movements.
Very quickly, she sensed Like Ya Bao moving forward.
Gangbao sensed its Beast Tamer's thoughts and consciously moved forward.
As time passed, Like Ya Bao still hadn't surfaced.
However, she could sense that it wasn't injured.
Gangbao continued to advance along the magma.
The Fire-type pet beasts on both sides gradually decreased.
"Qingqing..."
Qingbao was holding Lubao, looking completely exhausted.
Earlier, Lubao would still emit some cold air to help lower the temperature, but the subsequent actions were clearly very dangerous, so it didn't waste energy, not even a little bit.
"Do you want to go into the Beast Taming Tome?" Qiao Sang asked upon seeing this.
"Qingqing..." Qingbao nodded without much strength.
Qiao Sang waved her hand and recalled Qingbao into the Beast Taming Tome.
"Xunxun..."
Little Xunbao seized the gap and quickly lay down in the spot where Qingbao had been lying.
Lubao glanced at Little Xunbao but didn't say anything in the end.
Time ticked by second by second, and the distance they traveled inward became further and further.
The distance should only be about two kilometers from when we saw the Molten Armor Dragon during the initial empathy positioning... Qiao Sang estimated, had Gangbao stop, formed seals with both hands, and prepared to let Like Ya Bao out.
Although she was prepared for battle at any time, she would rather not clash with the Molten Armor Dragon if possible.
"Ya-ya!"
Just as her hands had finished two seal-forming movements, Like Ya Bao suddenly flew out from the magma and let out an excited cry, indicating it had found it!
After finishing, it shook its claw.
There, between two toes, was a black-red crystal.
It was exactly a Molten Bright Crystal!
Qiao Sang's expression was filled with joy: "Well done..."
"Molten Armor!"
Before she could finish her sentence, a thunderous roar sounded.
From within the magma, a massive red body, fully over ten meters long, suddenly lunged out, facing Like Ya Bao directly.
