Chapter 327: The Supreme Fire Dragon Earth Vein?

Tianshui City, outskirts.

On the wide, flat road.

A black business car with special license plates was speeding along.

Inside the car.

Yan Lie held the steering wheel with both hands, driving with full concentration.

In the passenger seat, Feng Cangqiu leaned back against the chair, eyes closed to rest.

Lin Mo, in the back seat, looked out the window with utter boredom.

As the vehicle gradually drove away from the bustling urban area of Tianshui City.

The scenery outside the window began to change.

High-rise buildings gradually decreased.

Vast stretches of factory buildings appeared within the field of view.

Chimneys stood in rows.

Occasionally, a few heavy trucks could be seen passing by, their beds loaded with pitch-black ore.

"Almost there."

Yan Lie, who was driving, glanced down at the navigation and spoke.

"That town ahead is Zhuxing Town."

Hearing Yan Lie's words.

Lin Mo raised his head.

His gaze crossed the windshield, looking forward.

On the distant horizon.

A town of massive scale gradually came into view.

The architectural style of the town was completely different from that of a modern city.

Almost all the buildings were constructed from huge bluish-gray boulders.

Rugged, heavy.

And above the town.

A layer of faint red mist was currently shrouding it.

The mist was not thick, but its range was extremely vast.

Like a thin veil, it enveloped the entire town within it.

Under the glow of the setting sun, the red mist shimmered with a faint golden light.

Seen from afar, it possessed an indescribable grandeur.

Yan Lie glanced at Lin Mo through the rearview mirror.

Noticing he was observing that red mist, he explained with a smile:

"Don't worry."

"That is not pollution."

"It is a peculiar phenomenon produced in Zhuxing Town, where the high temperatures from the ever-burning forging furnaces meet the cold air."

"Simply put..."

Yan Lie thought for a moment.

"It is steam produced when hot air meets cold air."

"Except that because these steams contain fire elements, they appear red."

Hearing these words.

Lin Mo nodded.

"So that's how it is."

Under Yan Lie's control, the vehicle slowly drove into the town.

Lin Mo lowered the window halfway.

Instantly, a deafening sound of forging surged into his eardrums.

Dense sounds of metal striking rose and fell in succession.

Lin Mo surveyed the streets outside the window.

This was an extremely lively town.

But its liveliness was different from the liveliness of ordinary cities.

On both sides of the street, almost no supermarkets could be seen.

No commercial shops that should exist in any ordinary city were visible.

Instead, there were all kinds of weapon shops, forging workshops, and material stores.

"Hundred Refinements Divine Weapon Pavilion."

"Thousand Hammer Refining Workshop."

"Meteorite Iron Forging Agency."

Various rugged signs hung above the shop entrances.

Through the open doors, one could see forging furnaces burning with fierce flames inside.

Shirtless blacksmiths with bulging muscles were furiously striking red-hot metal.

Between the rising and falling of the great hammer, sparks flew in all directions.

And on the street.

The coming and going crowds were also completely different from those in the city outside.

Almost entirely composed of combat professionals with hurried expressions.

Obviously.

Those who came here were combat professionals who had truly experienced life and death.

They were all high-level combat professionals.

Just as Lin Mo was observing the scene outside the window with interest.

A disturbance came from within the skill bar.

【"Hmm?"】

The 'Fireball', which had been closing its eyes to rest, suddenly opened them.

【"What is that?"】

【"Such dense fire-attribute energy!"】

Hearing these words.

Lin Mo frowned slightly.

"Fire-attribute energy?"

He instinctively glanced at the forging furnaces on both sides of the street.

"Is it those furnaces?"

【"No..."】

'Fireball' shook its head in denial, sensing carefully.

【"It is not these furnaces."】

【"It is underground."】

【"Underground... there is an extremely massive, and extremely pure, fire-attribute energy."】

【"Unreasonably huge."】

【"It is hundreds of times stronger than the energy emitted by these furnaces outside!"】

"Hmm?"

"Underground?"

Lin Mo's eyes shifted slightly.

Is there fire-attribute energy underground?

Just at this moment.

Feng Cangqiong, sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head to look at Lin Mo.

"You felt it?"

Hearing Feng Cangqiong's question.

Lin Mo nodded.

"Mm."

"Underground, there seems to be a very strong fire-attribute energy?"

Upon saying this.

Yan Lie, who was driving, couldn't help but glance at Lin Mo in the rearview mirror.

A curse slipped out.

"Damn..."

"You can feel it?"

Lin Mo looked at Yan Lie in confusion.

"I felt it, it's very obvious."

"What's wrong?"

Yan Lie sighed.

"This damn..."

Feng Cangqiong laughed.

"Alright Yan Lie, you just focus on driving well."

"Stop being jealous."

"It's very normal for Lin Mo to be able to feel things you can't."

Being rebuked by Feng Cangqiong like this.

Yan Lie scratched his head.

"That's true..."

Feng Cangqiong looked back at Lin Mo in the rearview mirror, his gaze becoming even more appreciative.

"Truly worthy of you, Lin Mo, your elemental perception is strong to this extent."

Feng Cangqiong sighed.

"You know."

"In the entire Dragon Nation, there are not more than one hundred people who can sit in this car and perceive the fire-attribute energy underground."

"Don't look at the large number of people; all of these are high-level Flame Mages."

Hearing Feng Cangqiong's praise.

Lin Mo smiled.

"Old Feng, stop flattering me."

"What exactly is down there underground?"

Lin Mo asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Feng Cangqiong gathered his thoughts and said slowly:

"Underneath here is leyline energy."

"To be precise, it's a top-grade 'Fire Dragon Leyline.'"

"Leyline energy?"

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

"That's right."

Feng Cangqiong nodded and continued.

"In today's world, nature contains all sorts of elemental energies."

"And these energies, at certain specific geographic locations, will gather and condense to an extreme degree."

"That is a leyline."

Feng Cangqiong pointed out the window.

"Do you know why this place is called Star-Forging Town?"

Lin Mo shook his head.

Feng Cangqiong smiled and explained:

"What does forging equipment need most?"

"Fire."

"But this fire cannot be ordinary mortal fire."

"No matter how high the temperature of ordinary fire, it cannot smelt those top-grade materials imbued with extraordinary power."

"If you want to forge top-tier weapons, or even taboo-grade exclusive weapons—"

"You must rely on special high-grade flames."

Feng Cangqiong paused.

"And this top-grade Fire Dragon Leyline hidden beneath Star-Forging Town—"

"It is one of the purest, most violent fire sources in the entire Dragon Nation, even the entire Blue Star!"

"Every forging furnace here uses leyline fire drawn directly from the source as its core."

Hearing this—

Lin Mo suddenly understood.

So that's how it is.

No wonder Hearing Xiao Huo had such a reaction.

Just then—

In the skill bar—

'Fireball' licked his lips.

【"Master…"】

【"That Fire Dragon Leyline down below…"】

【"I really want to go down and absorb it."】

【"Drain it dry."】

【"Not a single drop left."】
