Chapter 237: Fire Attribute Treasure


    The temperature within the boundary stopped at around forty degrees, while the magma that spewed out of the crack in the ground was halted outside the boundary, not affecting the three people within its confines at all.


    Fire grand magus Marceau clearly found the process very difficult. Since there was arge amount of magical element within the boundary, it meant that she had spent a lot of mental strength in order to shift this boundary.


    After the boundary had shrunk to a size of three to four meters, it became rather close quarters. Adding onto the fact that it was a hot and muggy temperature of forty degrees within, it caused the people to feel wet and ufortable, even though it wasn’t as scorching as it was outside.


    However, Han Shuo’s body was able to easily handle a temperature of this degree. His body wasn’t covered in sweat even though he didn’t use his demonic arts to defend himself. Instead, he used this rare spare time to sit down cross legged, calmly adjusting his breathing to recover the magical yuan that he’d expended earlier.


    Beautiful knight Sophie wore tight clothes that clung to her great figure. Her sweat soaked through her clothes, making it seem like she’d just taken a bath in her clothes, emphasizing the curves on her body. Due to the high temperature, the sweat on her body flowed continuously as she wheezed erratically, continuously fanning herself with her hands to create a little bit of wind to cool herself.


    The fire grand magus was just as focused as Han Shuo as she paid careful attention to controlling the boundary. The wrinkles on her face were like gullies that were currently filled with sweat. They were unable to stop the sweat from slowly dripping down her body due to gravity.


    The two yin demons, that had been left in the valley, were surveying everything that was going on outside, so that Han Shuo could find out everything going on above in order to make the most precise decisions.


    After descending into the magma crack on the ground, the boundary continued to sink. As the surrounding mes burned fiercely, bits of magma and loud rumbling sounds shot everywhere. When they collided with the boundary, radiant sparks appeared and created a beautiful scene of an ocean of fire.


    Unfortunately, for the three people in the boundary, Han Shuo and Marceau had no spare effort to pay attention to the surrounding scene; while female knight Sophie was ufortably covered in sweat creating a burning fire of anxiety in her heart. She naturally wasn’t of the mind to pay attention to the beautiful scenery around her.


    The three of them and the boundary slowly sank downwards amidst the scorching and brilliant sparks. During this process, fire grand magus Marceau manipted the direction of the boundary, slowly guiding it to fall towards the earth’s center. She seemed to be rather familiar with the situation here.


    Finally, the moving boundary stopped. Han Shuo opened his eyes instantly and carefully surveyed the scene around him. He wanted to imprint everything into his mind with the shortest amount of time.


    What he saw first was a vastke of fire. It was like the burning sun as it released scorching light and heat. Turbulent magma emerged in the form of pirs of fire dragon. They shot up up pir by pir. They were likely so fierce due to the influence from the Lord of the mes’ powers.


    zing walls of boulders were around the vastke of fire. These walls of boulders were red like heated metal as they radiated an intense temperature. They filled up the surroundings with piercing red light, causing the entire area to be a huge space of mes.


    There was a strange fire lotus at the center of the fireke that bloomed miraculously in the turbulentke filled with magma. It simmered with an unusual red light and seemed to have a sort of tempting beauty as it swayed on the fiery waters.


    The three of them were still enclosed by the boundary and floated inside an opening within the wall of boulders. This moved them safely away from the spurting magma.


    “Firespark Stone, Firesun Crystal, Red Onyx...”


    Han Shuo eximed softly with surprise when he noticed that there were several pieces of magical rocks scattered not far from the cave entrance. They were all weapon-refining treasures of the fire attribute. Their quality was top tier and could be used to refine high quality fire flying swords or be directly absorbed by fire cultivators in order to improve their arts.


    “This area is very mysterious. It’s filled with strange energy, and the stones that is nurtured around it are very valuable. If they were embedded into a magic staff, it would definitely give a great improvement to fire mages!” Grand magus Marceau said as she wiped away her sweat.


    However, Han Shuo, as a demonic cultivator, could recognize many of the strange stones based on Chu Cann’s memories even without her exnations. He understood that these special stones all had different types of great effects, and each one of them were highly useful.


    “Open the boundary, I have to go and collect some!” Han Shuo felt really excited, but he still spoke with a calm expression.


    Marceau blinked, then hesitated for a moment before reminding with goodwill, “The temperature outside the boundary is several times higher than within. I think that the moment you leave the boundary, you will be baked by the high temperature. I would advise you not to take the risk!”


    “It’s okay, I think I can withstand it!” Han Shuo used his magical yuan to create a jumping sphere of purple me to appear in his left palm. A wave of cold breeze air instantly blew up in the forty degrees interior of the boundary, causing Sophie and Marceau to shudder with cold, despite perspiring heavily. Their flowing sweat suddenly stopped, bringing to them a cold feeling.


    “What kind of magic is this?” Fire grand magus Marceau couldn’t help but exim after seeing the high temperature within the boundary instantly drop, nearly turning into an extremely hot spot into an ice cavern the moment the purple mes appeared in Han Shuo’s palm.


    “Hehe, it’s just a special type of martial arts, so don’t worry, I think I can withstand the high temperatures outside!” Han Shuo gave a faint smile as he looked confidently towards Marceau while holding the ball of jumping purple mes.


    “I think you’re right!” Marceau nodded and then said. “Pay attention, the moment I count to three, I will send you out of the boundary, so prepare yourself.”


    Han Shuo took in a deep breath and circted his magical yuan, moving his fingers on his hands agilely as waves of purple mes appeared from his fingertips.


    When Marceau counted to three, the section of the boundary in front of Han Shuo was sheared off, as if by a knife. The high temperature attacked his face as scorching waves of fire broke through the boundary, instantly covering Han Shuo’s entire body. Without Marceau’s control, the boundary cracked like an egg shell. Not only did it lose the ability to block off the heat wave, it also lost the ability to remain in the air.


    The boulders were boiling heat where Han Shuo hadnded. If he stepped down, his feet would instantly burnt to cinders. When he activated his magical yuan to cast the Mystical cial Spellfire, he naturally didn’t forget about the Arts of the Demonic Ninth Heaven. In the moment his feet were about tond on the faming stone, he suddenly stopped moving in midair.


    The yin demon that Han Shuo had left behind in the boundary was paying attention to the two women’s actions. Han Shuo himself didn’t waste a split second as he used the extreme coldness of the Mystical cial Spellfire, covering his entire body in white smoke as he nned to act covertly.


    When Han Shuo started flying, Marceau and Sophie looked at his actions in shock. They were clearly very surprised. At the same time, when the extreme cold on Han Shuo’s body was met with the high temperature, his body was instantly covered with white smoke, obscuring his figure from their eyes.


    “The most magical thing in this area should be that fire lotus at the center of theke. He’s gone to collect stones to forge weapons, then let’s go and pick that fire lotus!” Fire grand magus Marceau did not seem to care about the unknown rocks around her. Perhaps, it was because she didn’t know what kind of miraculous effects those rocks had and had ced all her attention onto that fire lotus.


    The fire lotus had roughly ten bright red leaves that were the size of palm leaves. It was as translucent as a crystal. Strange red light flowed in the texture of every leaf, as if they were nurturing life through mes. The fire lotus was extremely eye catching in the ming fireke, giving people a feeling of awe-inspiring beauty.


    Fire grand magus Marceau and Sophie werepletely captivated by this strange lotus. Both of them gazed at the fire lotus like they were mesmerized. Marceau started moving the magical boundary and slowly approached the fire lotus together with Sophie.


    Han Shuo did not activate his arts within the dense white smoke to collect fire rocks. Instead, he quickly dug arge hole and dripped his blood essence into it. His sparkling eyes asionally nced over to the fire lotus. while the expression on his face was extremely calm, as if he was quickly thinking about setting something up.


    After hearing Marceau’s description before they’de down, Han Shuo understood that the ce of extreme fire had nurtured a fire lotus, and thus formed his own ns. No matter what, the fire lotus could not be obtained by Marceau nor Sophie. As a fire attribute treasure and a spiritual treasure that was nurtured by the ce of extreme fire, the fire lotus had the miraculous effect of directly enclosing a zombie in order to help a zombie directly be a fire elite zombie.


    The ces of the five extreme elements had a chance to nurture treasures of the five elements based on time and special circumstances. The ce of extreme earth, ce of extreme wood, and the Valley of Sunshine’s ce of extreme water may have needed too much time, or perhaps were not suitable locations, and so no treasures had appeared.


    However, this ce of extreme fire may have existed for over several hundred thousand years, and had been storing energy during this long period of time. Thanks to the Lord of the mes as well, it had actually sessfully nurtured the treasure of the fire lotus. As the spiritual treasure of the ce of extreme fire, the fire lotus had absorbed all sorts of fire attribute power during the thousands of years it had to grow.


    Thanks to the existence of the fire lotus, Han Shuo did not need to spend arge amount of time to gather all sorts of materials. He could use secret techniques to build a formation at the ce of extreme fire, and start the formation with his blood essence. If he then ced the zombie into the fire lotus, it could help evolve the normal zombie into a fire elite zombie through the nutrients the fire lotus had absorbed over the years, and the dense concentration of fire element energy within the ce of extreme fire.


    This was an extremely rare chance. Han Shuo would definitely not allow Marceau to take the fire lotus. Therefore, he’d started to organize everything after he exited the boundary.


    As Marceau manipted the boundary and slowly approached the fire lotus, Han Shuo’s wave of dense white smoke passed through the caves made from the reddened boulder walls. When the two women saw this, they thought that Han Shuo was taking the chance to collect some unique ores in the surroundings. They didn’t know that by using the cover of the dense smoke, Han Shuo had already finished digging the eyes of the formation that was needed to refine the fire elite zombie. Although there was the fire lotus, because there weren’t any other materials to refine the fire elite zombie, the connection between eyes of the formation was done using Han Shuo’s blood essence. It was fortunate that Han Shuo had swallowed a three hundred years old Blood Essence Grass earlier and possessed enough blood essence. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to sessfully use the formation at this time.


    After Han Shuo walked around the walls, dug all of the eyes of the formation, and dripped his blood essence into them, he immediately chanted an incantation and summoned the little skeleton from the other dimension.


    “Quick, bring a zombie you approve of. He will have the same treatment as the earth elite zombie!” After issuing the order, he sent little skeleton back to the other dimension before the little skeleton could nod in understanding.


    Purple mes then leapt up from Han Shuo’s hand as he activated his magical yuan in the direction that the little skeleton had stood at in order to create a temperate location.


    The little skeleton’s body was made out of crystal-like white bones. After multiple refining and training, Han Shuo had enough confidence in the strength of the little skeleton’s body that he knew that this sort of temperature wouldn’t affect the little skeleton at all.


    However, if a normal zombie suddenly appeared at such a ce like this, it would definitely be in terrible pain due to the scorching high temperature. It might even be directly burned to death. Thus, in order to sessfully refine the fire elite zombie, Han Shuo had to make some preparations first, so that the zombie wouldn’t die from the heat once it was ced within.


    An urgent call passed over from the other dimension from the little skeleton. When Han Shuo received this call, he immediately cast the spell, resulting in the little skeleton appearing in front of Han Shuo within the temperate area he’d created. When the little skeleton appeared, he was holding a zombie warrior that had an extremelyrge head.


    Perhaps the little skeleton had felt Han Shuo’s anxiousness, and so did not take too long in his search before randomly grabbing a zombie warrior with an extremelyrge head.


    “Alright, it’s you!” Time was tight. Han Shuo saw that everything had been prepared. When he saw the two women approaching the fire lotus, he didn’t have the time to dither as he grabbed the huge zombie and dashed towards the center of the fireke.
