After swallowing a scarlet crystal core, the Scarlet Fla Drake’s aura grew a little stronger. It barked at the remaining large fiery beasts and rushed at them as fast as lightning.
Seeing their companion killed and its life core eaten by the Scarlet Fla Drake, the rest of the large fiery beasts roared furiously, one after another. Each of them breathed out flaming long spears at the Scarlet Fla Drake from all directions, trapping it.
The flas whistled in the air, and a bitter fight broke out.
——-
Outside the flaming mountains, Zhang Che was bored out of his mind waiting for the Purple Crystal Tortoise to recover from its injuries.
“What exactly did the Scarlet Fla Drake run into in there? Why isn’t it coming out after so long?”
Zhang Che had clearly instructed that fellow to go and scout the situation there. Who would’ve thought that it never ca back, seemingly having forgotten his orders.
Needless to say, that fellow must have ca across sothing greatly beneficial to it, and cried out so excitedly, forgetting about everything else.
A few minutes later, the Purple Crystal Tortoise’s injuries were healed. Zhang Che summoned it out once more, asking it, “Are there more of those fiery red crystals in the ground ahead?”
Although he didn’t know what exactly those fiery red crystals were, it didn’t stop Zhang Che from realizing their value. They were definitely a type of rare mineral worth a fortune.
The Purple Crystal Tortoise nodded, but its eyes revealed traces of fear.
Evidently, it was too hot underground over there. Despite the Purple Crystal Tortoise being at legend-quality, it couldn’t really handle the heat.
If it wasn’t for the fact that subdued beasts would never go against their owner’s orders, the Purple Crystal Tortoise would have rejected Zhang Che’s request outright.
“Then be a little more careful. Co back imdiately if you can’t take it,” Zhang Che instructed. The Purple Crystal Tortoise quickly sank into the sandy ground.
Zhang Che and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon were the only ones left again. He was bored of waiting and leaned back, laying on the dragon’s back.
It was too hot here. Only by sticking close to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s body would he feel a little cooler. Even breathing the air here felt uncomfortable.
Regrettably, the Purple-Gold Demonic Armored Worm’s Elental Protective Barrier skill only lasted an hour. Otherwise, Zhang Che wouldn’t have to worry about the heat wave at all.
No matter what type of elental damage it was, as long as it wasn’t divine-quality, it would be perfectly blocked off by the Elental Protective Barrier. It was simply a must-have skill!

While Zhang Che was waiting leisurely outside, the Scarlet Fla Drake was displaying its might inside the flas, beating the living daylights out of the large flaming beasts. Sparks erupted from ti to ti, a sign of the Scarlet Fla Drake tearing the beasts’ bodies to pieces.
Bam! With a loud noise, the Scarlet Fla Drake found an opportunity to directly tear the throat of one of the large flaming beast open. Its head fell off, and its body suddenly exploded, leaving only a scarlet crystal core behind on the golden yellow ground.
The Scarlet Fla Drake wouldn’t miss such a delicacy. It imdiately slurped up the crystal core, swallowing it into its stomach. The scarlet fla light on its body grew slightly more intense once again.
As the difference in strength between them increased, the remaining large flaming beasts found themselves less and less of a match for the Scarlet Fla Drake. They only managed to hold on for a few more minutes before they were all wiped out. The Scarlet Fla Drake obtained a few more fiery crystal cores, the dancing golden flas around its body now looked almost solid.
The Scarlet Fla Drake focused its eyes, looking deeper into the flaming mountains, hoping for more of those large flaming beasts to appear for it to kill.
However, there were no signs of movents after waiting for so ti.
The Scarlet Fla Drake suddenly found itself at a loss for what to do. It didn’t know whether it should continue exploring deeper.
After all, it still rembered Zhang Che’s instructions. It was also afraid of an overwhelmingly powerful fiery creature appearing. At that ti, it wouldn’t be able to leave even if it wanted to.
However, the taste of those fiery crystal cores were truly too tempting.
In the end, the Scarlet Fla Drake’s desire for food triumphed over its thinking. It carefully started forward, slowly walking deeper in.
——–
The Purple Crystal Tortoise rose from the sandy grounds once more. This ti, the fiery aura remnant on its body was much less intense than before. It rembered Zhang Che’s instructions very clearly; it imdiately returned to him when it almost couldn’t take it anymore.
Naturally, due to the reduced ti the Purple Crystal Tortoise went underground, its harvests were less than the last ti. It only managed to gather a few dozen of those fiery crystals, varying in sizes.
Even so, Zhang Che didn’t feel any regrets.
Slow and steady was the way to go. He couldn’t let the Purple Crystal Tortoise get into dangerous situations.
The fellow’s strength and the space inside its body were extrely important to Zhang Che. He couldn’t afford to lose it!
Moreover, that fellow was built from a mountain of gold. It had consud tens of tons of purple-gold crystals. Even if they were converted to purple crystal points, it had been an astronomical sum.
Although the Purple Crystal Tortoise wasn’t injured, it suffered pretty badly from the heat. It was temporarily unable to go gather more fiery crystals for Zhang Che.
Ti was money; Zhang Che felt like he couldn’t afford to waste it.
As such, he looked down at the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon and instructed it with a soft voice, “Co, help it cool down.”
The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon quickly turned his head and opened his mouth, breathing a mouthful of cold mist at the Purple Crystal Tortoise. The extrely cold aura quickly purged the heat from the Purple Crystal Tortoise. Not only that, it was so cold the Purple Crystal Tortoise couldn’t help but withdraw its head and limbs.
Without needing Zhang Che to give it further instructions, the Purple Crystal Tortoise quickly sank into the sandy ground in the next mont, disappearing from sight.
Zhang Che had no idea how many more fiery crystals there were under the flaming mountains. Regardless, he was destined to get rich today!
Just as Zhang Che was dreaming about his life as a rich man, he suddenly heard the Scarlet Fla Drake barking anxiously from deep in the flaming mountains ahead.
Zhang Che was startled. -That guy... didn’t I tell it to return imdiately if it encountered any danger? Why did it go so much deeper?-
However, he couldn’t possibly watch and do nothing when his subdued beasts were in danger.
“That fellow has a brain of a dog, not learning very well,” Zhang Che complained softly. An elental barrier suddenly rose around him from the surface of his armor. In the next mont, he jumped off the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s back and ran towards the flas ahead.
The Elental Protective Barrier was truly an amazing skill.
Zhang Che was clearly surrounded by scarlet flas all around him, and even the air was twisted from the heat. However, he no longer felt any of it. The Elental Protective Barrier had perfectly blocked off the heat outside.
The Scarlet Fla Drake’s cries for help grew increasingly anxious.
However, Zhang Che was still at least a thousand ters away from the Scarlet Fla Drake. He wouldn’t get there within a minute or two.
“Freaking hell... who told you to go that deep?”
Zhang Che was running so fast his legs turned into circles, quickly advancing through the flas. Whether he could make it in ti to help the Scarlet Fla Drake depended on heaven’s will. {TLN: Think how so cartoon characters’ legs were animated as circles when they run fast...}

Currently, the Scarlet Fla Drake was covered in injuries. Fresh red blood flowed out from the wounds. The blood instantly dried in the heat, turning into scabs covering the wounds, looking extrely pathetic.
It was facing a ten-ter-tall fla giant with scarlet flas surrounding its body. It was wielding a pair of fire blades, brandishing them like a windmill, continuously slashing at the Scarlet Fla Drake as it gave chase.
The fla giant’s attacks were extrely quick. Even though the Scarlet Fla Drake was trying its best to dodge the attacks, its movents were not very effective, and it was struck by the fire blades from ti to ti. Its flesh rolled out, and blood spattered everywhere.
The Scarlet Fla Drake kept barking as it ran for its life. However, it was slower than the fla giant, and could only get beaten on.
Whoosh! The blades in the fla giant’s hands suddenly erupted with an intense fiery light, slashing down at the Scarlet Fla Drake’s neck at lightning speed, trying to end its life right then and there.
A hint of fear flashed across the Scarlet Fla Drake’s eyes. It could no longer afford to hold back and breathed out a column of scarlet flas.
It had resolved itself. Even if it were decapitated by the fla giant, it would make it pay a heavy price in return!
However, why would the fla giant trade hits with the Scarlet Fla Drake when its victory was within its grasp?
The massive figure sidestepped nimbly, dodging the column of flas the Scarlet Fla Drake breathed out. Afterwards, it quickly closed the distance between them and swung its blades at the Scarlet Fla Drake’s vitals.
This ti, the Scarlet Fla Drake had nowhere to run.
Just as the long blade was about to reach the Scarlet Fla Drake’s neck, a loud cry was suddenly heard from hundred ters away. A scarlet and white sword light crossed the hundred ters in an instant, directly streaking towards the fla giant’s head.
The fla giant was greatly alard and it quickly drew its blade back, defending itself.
Even so, the fla giant suddenly stiffened while withdrawing its blades. A mass of intense flas erupted from its head all of a sudden, and its body fell to the ground, turning into countless sparks and scattering.
When the sparks dissipated, Zhang Che saw a golden-scarlet crystal core about the size of a musklon on the ground. The Scarlet Fla Drake quickly pounced at it and gulped it down.
“What’s this situation? Is that not an exotic beast?” Zhang Che widened his eyes in shock.
What he just saw had truly surprised him. That terrifyingly powerful fla giant was actually not an exotic beast!
In the next mont, golden flas suddenly erupted from the Scarlet Fla Drake’s body. A powerful aura spread outwards. The fellow barked a few tis excitedly, obviously in great mood.
Zhang Che finally understood why that fellow ignored his orders to return imdiately when it found itself in a dangerous spot.
It turned out that the Scarlet Fla Drake was able to quickly increase its strength by consuming the crystal cores left behind by those flaming creatures after their deaths.
Zhang Che could vaguely tell that the Scarlet Fla Drake was now at a critical juncture. Perhaps it would successfully rank up in level after eating one or two more of those crystal cores!
Zhang Che was suspicious, not knowing what kind of creature that fla giant from earlier was, but since it was so important to the Scarlet Fla Drake, he couldn’t be bothered to think so much. In any case, he had to continue killing his way further in.
No matter what, he had to help the Scarlet Fla Drake rank up!
