After a while, Wei Yang cald his emotions.
He stepped back and looked at the slender roots that remained in place.
"I’ve taken the Green Lotus, but I left the roots behind, preserving a trace of life. Perhaps, in a few hundred or thousand years, another Green Lotus Core Fla will be born here..."
Among Heavenly Flas, only the top three ranked ones on the Heavenly Fla Ranking were unique and irreplaceable. The rest could have more than one in existence.
Wei Yang took out a small jade bottle and carefully collected the eleven lotus seeds from the lotus platform, storing them securely.
Then, he pulled out a specially prepared empty Storage Ring from his robe. The internal space was about ten square ters, with a height roughly equivalent to a single-story building.
Inside, it looked like a small room.
He placed the Green Lotus into the Storage Ring.
If a Heavenly Fla erupted, it could completely incinerate everything within a storage space.
However, the Green Lotus Core Fla remained inside the lotus platform, appearing incredibly calm, showing no resistance whatsoever.
Clearly, while this Green Lotus Core Fla had developed a trace of spiritual awareness, its intelligence was still very low, limited to basic instinct.
Otherwise, it would have fiercely resisted when Wei Yang harvested the Green Lotus.
After finishing everything, Wei Yang put away the Storage Ring and let out a long breath.
His heart finally relaxed.
After all this effort, the Green Lotus Core Fla was finally in his hands.
Uh—no, to Wei Yang, the most important thing was actually the lotus seeds. Those were what he truly sought.
To be honest, if he were destined to only devour a single Heavenly Fla, the Green Lotus Core Fla wouldn’t be his first choice.
If he had the option, he would undoubtedly choose to refine a fla ranked higher or one that suited him better.
For now, he simply regarded the Green Lotus Core Fla as a backup option.
Thus, he wasn’t in any hurry to refine it.
His fingers unconsciously brushed against the Storage Ring on his index finger.
Inside was a map he had obtained from a hidden cave—a route leading deep into the Endless Sand Sea.
Its final destination supposedly contained another unknown Heavenly Fla.
Wei Yang shook his head, setting those thoughts aside. That could wait until he was stronger.
After all, venturing into the depths of the Endless Sand Sea ant stepping into an absolute death zone—it was not sothing to take lightly.
Stretching his body slightly, he glanced around.
With the Green Lotus gone, the blue glow that had previously enveloped the area gradually faded.
Wei Yang turned his head toward the Two-Headed Fla Spirit Serpent, which was waiting not far away.
Standing gracefully on its back, a girl in white smiled at him.
Wei Yang smiled as well, his figure flashing as he flew toward them.
Occasionally, a bubble would rise to the surface and burst with a soft pop, sending wisps of gray-white smoke into the air.
Suddenly—
Splash!
A massive twin-headed serpent burst out from beneath the magma.
Standing atop one of its heads were two figures, one dressed in black, the other in white.
The serpent swam slowly toward the shore, rising up and extending its head to the platform’s edge.
Wei Yang, holding Ye Xian’er in his arms, gently leaped onto the temporarily carved-out platform.
"Congratulations, Brother Yang! After all this ti, you’ve finally gotten what you wanted!" Xian’er giggled as she congratulated him.
"Haha." Wei Yang grinned, feeling quite satisfied with how smoothly everything had gone.
In his good mood, he lowered his head and pecked Xian’er’s soft, rosy lips.
"Ah—!"
Caught off guard, Xian’er let out a soft gasp. Her face instantly flushed red, and she buried herself in his embrace, letting out a shy yet happy murmur.
Wei Yang fondly stroked her long hair, his gaze turning slightly nostalgic.
Unknowingly, Xian’er was already close to fifteen...
He couldn’t help but feel a sense of accomplishnt.
Shaking off his thoughts, Wei Yang turned to the Two-Headed Fla Spirit Serpent, which had its head extended toward him. Its snake-like pupils held a trace of expectation.
Wei Yang chuckled. "You did well this ti. Don’t worry, I always keep my word."
After all, it was rely a Rank 4 Magic Beast—Wei Yang had no other intentions.
He extended his hand and said, "Give
two of your sub-flas, and I will set you free."
A peak Rank 4 beast fla was enough for him to use as practice for now.
The Two-Headed Fla Spirit Serpent hesitated, its pupils flickering with reluctance.
Clearly, separating two sub-flas from its body would result in a significant loss of its essence. It instinctively didn’t want to part with them.
Wei Yang raised an eyebrow. "What? Unwilling?"
Losing a bit of its essence—so what? Soaking in the magma for a year or so would restore it. It wouldn’t even agree to this?
Was it taking advantage of his kindness?
Xian’er also turned around, her beautiful eyes fixed on the creature with a predatory gaze.
The Two-Headed Fla Spirit Serpent trembled, feeling a chill down its spine... If it had fur, it would be standing on end.
It was on the verge of tears. It felt wronged—ever since it encountered these two humans, its luck had been downright miserable.
Before they ca, it had lived peacefully in the underground magma lake, free of worries, living a carefree and happy life. But since these two villains arrived...
It had been bullied to an unspeakable degree.
Could this be anything but true misfortune?
Resigned, the serpent’s body writhed slightly before both its large mouths opened, releasing two palm-sized, deep crimson flas.
These were fragnts of its beast fla, split off from its essence.
As soon as the two flas separated from its body, the serpent’s aura visibly weakened.
Already injured, this loss was like rubbing salt into its wounds.
Wei Yang shot it a "good, you know your place" look, then flipped his hand and retrieved two jade bottles, sealing the flas inside.
With a casual wave, he withdrew the restriction he had planted in its soul.
The restriction had been forcefully imposed with his powerful soul power—it was neither complex nor sophisticated, making it easy to undo. A simple thought was enough to retract it.
Seeing this, Ye Xian’er also lifted her hand, extracting a wisp of grayish-white energy from the serpent’s heart before stowing it away.
"Alright, you’re free to go." Wei Yang grinned, waving at the serpent. "We’ll be staying here for a while. If you’re free, co and play with us."
Upon hearing this, the Two-Headed Fla Spirit Serpent imdiately dove into the magma, its massive body writhing as it disappeared at an astonishing speed. Even its aura gradually faded.
Clearly, it had burrowed deep into the magma and had no intention of ever seeing them again.
"Hehe." Ye Xian’er giggled, her eyes gleaming with mischief.
She looked like a mischievous girl who had just pulled off a successful prank.
Wei Yang shook his head with a chuckle. It seed they had truly tornted the poor serpent.
He handed her a jade bottle containing the serpent’s beast fla.
"This is a sub-fla of the beast fla it split off. Though its power is just passable, it is still the Lava Core Fla. You should refine it—it’ll add another offensive thod to your arsenal."
"Mm!" Xian’er blinked and took the bottle, clearly intrigued.
Who would have thought that soone like her, who specialized in poisons, would one day wield fire?
Her Dou Qi had already fully converted into Fire Poison Dou Qi, aning she now possessed both fire and poison attributes.
Refining a peak Rank 4 beast fla was naturally no problem.
"Don’t get excited just yet. There’s also this." Wei Yang’s lips curled into a mysterious smile as he retrieved another jade bottle. He poured out a lotus seed radiating a soft green glow and handed it to her.
"This... is a lotus seed from that Green Lotus?" Xian’er took it curiously, imdiately sensing the vast, pure fire energy contained within the small, jade-like seed, no larger than a fingernail.
"Yes. This lotus seed holds an imnse amount of refined energy. With your current cultivation, you can’t consu it directly. It’s best to absorb it gradually while holding it, then swallow and refine it once the energy diminishes slightly."
Wei Yang smiled. "This is an extrely rare treasure of heaven and earth—the companion seed of the Green Lotus Core Fla. Haven’t you always dread of becoming an alchemist?"
"Now that you already possess fire attributes, if you can gain a sliver of wood attributes as well... perhaps it’s not entirely impossible."
"Brother Yang, you an...!" Xian’er’s body trembled as she clutched the lotus seed tightly, her eyes widening in disbelief.
"Green Lotus Core Fla... Green Lotus Core Fla... Just from the na, it’s obvious—it’s a fla that contains wood attributes!"
Wei Yang winked. "And this companion lotus seed not only holds vast, refined fire energy but also incredibly pure wood energy. If you refine it..."
