"My dear, this is really weird!" Lin Hao stared ahead dumbfounded. A sea of fire was blocking the front, appearing out of thin air among many dense plants.
But the most surprising thing is that even though the sea of fire is among the plants, it doesn't burn the surrounding plants. Isn't this strange?
"Unless, this is not a real flame." Ye Huayue's words cleared everyone's doubts.
"It's not a real flame?" Everyone was surprised.
There is clearly a blazing fire in front of me, no matter how you look at it, it is real!
"Let me give it a try." Liuzhu volunteered.
She cut a piece of vine from the side and used it as a whip to whip towards the sea of fire.
With a swipe, the flames seemed to be faintly separated by the whip, but then they gathered together and burned.
Liuzhu took back the vine, and found that the vine was intact and undamaged, with no signs of burning at all.
"Is it really not a flame?" Liuzhu wondered.
"Let me try again." Ouyang Lan said. She is a fire element mage, and her control over fire is unparalleled.
Compared to her eyes, she could indeed feel a very strong fire element, but she tried to mobilize it, but she couldn't mobilize it at all. Those fire elements didn't listen to her command at all.
"Sure enough, there is something weird." Ouyang Lan muttered.
"Since you two have proved it for me, I can be sure." Ye Huayue said, looking vaguely excited.
"This should be a very rare flame grass." Ye Huayue said to everyone, "It is a plant with fire attributes. Its usual form is in the shape of flames. It is really wonderful to use it to refine fire attribute elixirs.
It couldn’t be more appropriate!”
"Then what are you waiting for? There are so many in front of you, hurry up and pick them!" Ouyang Lan heard this and said quickly. If this fire attribute elixir is refined, wouldn't she be the one who is most likely to benefit?
"It's a pity..." Ye Huayue's face showed helplessness, "This grass cannot be picked casually."
"Just like Liu Zhu used the cane to beat them, you also saw that they are still in the form of flames. Since they are fire, they are invisible."
"You mean, we can't grasp the intangible things?" Li Lixiu asked.
But Ye Huayue shook her head, "It only has a shape in one state, and that is to pull it out directly with your hands. However, at other times, the flame grass will not produce burning power, such as the intact one.
The rattan is intact and there are no burning plants around it. But when someone pulls it out with their hands, the flames will really burn people."
"I see, they are really strange plants! This is their self-protection ability!" Lin Hao said.
Ye Huayue nodded, that's it.
"But, for the sake of my elixir, I will never let it go!" Ye Huayue looked like she was determined to win, and waved her fist, preparing to set off towards the sea of fire.
However, Long Jin blocked her in front of her with one arm.
"I'll go for you," Long Jin said. "I absolutely, absolutely, don't want your hands to get burned."
"But……"
Ye Huayue was about to say something when she was interrupted by Long Jin. "Don't argue with me. I am the woman I love and I can't even do this. What qualifications do I have to protect you?"
The words "my beloved woman" were like a hammer that hit Ye Huayue's heart at once, causing her to panic and become confused immediately.
"Even... anyway..." Ye Huayue didn't know what she wanted to say. The words in her heart were all blocked together, and she couldn't say them out.
She could let herself get hurt, but she never wanted to let Jin get hurt. Even if this kind of burn was easy to heal for her.
Ye Huayue held on to Long Jin's clothes tightly, preventing him from taking a step forward.
Ouyang Lan stood up and said, "Okay, Senior Ye Hua, you have done a lot for us along the way. I am here to help you pull it out this time. Just remember to share more of the refined elixir with me."
Just a few will do!”
At this time, Li Lixiu was also carefully putting Qin Luo on his back on the ground. While saying this, he said: "You have done so much for me and Qin Luo. Leave such a small thing to me, otherwise I really don't know."
How should I repay you?"
"Hey! You guys..." Ye Huayue looked at them, her heart filled with emotion.
But before anyone could make a move, they suddenly heard some unusual sounds.
There is a rustling sound from walking among various plants and rubbing against them.
Everyone's hearts were immediately lifted.
After coming to this strange place for so long, they haven't seen even an animal except plants. What is this strange sound coming from?
The sound was getting closer and closer, and they were almost certain that it was the sound of human footsteps.
And there's more than one person.
A black hem of clothes was looming among the dense plants. Finally, those people emerged from the branches and leaves and stood in front of these people.
"Di Ling?" Ye Huayue rubbed her eyes and asked in disbelief. The one standing at the front among those people, still wearing that ugly mask, isn't it Di Ling?
"You, you are not that..." Ouyang Lan pointed at the person and shouted.
She still remembers clearly that the night they escaped, the night Ye Huayue escaped from the palace, wasn't it this man who was holding Ye Huayue?
As soon as he saw Di Ling, Long Jin's aura suddenly increased! His eyes looked at him with a hint of displeasure and vigilance.
"Di Ling, you can appear anywhere!" Ye Huayue sighed. Because Di Ling saved her once last time, Ye Huayue's impression of him has changed.
"The Shadow Devouring Palace is originally for collecting intelligence, so of course we have to come to this place." Di Ling said calmly.
Everyone thinks that the Shadow Devouring Palace is a killer organization, but in fact no one knows that gathering intelligence is the organization's main job.
"We have been looking for something. Wherever relics like this appear, we cannot miss them."
"What are you looking for?" Ye Huayue asked strangely.
Di Ling was silent for a moment, "I can't say."
"Hey, that's boring!" Ye Huayue rolled her eyes at him. She thought she had some secrets to tell.
Ye Huayue suddenly remembered what she heard in the small town outside the desert, so she asked: "The people in that small town said that a group of people have come in but have never gone out. Are they talking about you?"
"Probably." Di Ling replied briefly.
"Do you want that?" Di Ling suddenly looked at the flame grass. After asking, without waiting for an answer, he walked towards the sea of fire.
