Chapter 1141: Chapter 1039: Fire Essence_2
Because as soon as he ca out of the first Secret Realm, he would have to go to the second one the next day, leaving him no ti to make further preparations.
The reason Li Zhirui chose the Five-colored Secret Realm and the Thousand Islands Secret Realm was, firstly, because the forr contains pure Essence of the Five Elents, which could accelerate the growth of the Five Viscera Gods.
He had been nurturing and strengthening the Five Viscera Gods for years, and they had already matured. Yet it seed as if there were no limits to their growth, and they could continue to be cultivated.
Now with such an excellent opportunity, Li Zhirui naturally didn’t want to miss out, as this was the Essence of the Five Elents at its richest. If he could obtain it, who knew how many years of cultivation it could save him?
The reason for choosing the Thousand Islands Secret Realm was that there were many Spiritual Objects there, and the grades were not low; each island was a dicine Garden, where Li Zhirui could find many Spiritual Objects he didn’t have.
Although Li Zhirui no longer crafted Precious Pills as frequently as before, his skills had not diminished, and he almost never failed at Alchemy.
Ti flew by, and in the blink of an eye, more than two months had passed.
The Five-colored Secret Realm, which Li Zhirui had been eagerly waiting for, was slowly opened by several Great Vehicle Cultivators.
Through a thin Boundary mbrane, one could see the colorful and splendid scenery within the Secret Realm.
And this, was the origin of the Secret Realm’s na.
If one were to overlook the Secret Realm from the sky, they would discover that the entire realm was like a huge Formation, with clear-cut colors representing the Five Elents, yet blending into each other.
It was probably for this reason that the prized Essence of the Five Elents was produced.
“Gentlen, you may enter with your Teleportation Jade Tokens now. Three months later, when the Secret Realm closes, be sure not to miss the timing, otherwise, you’ll have to wait two hundred years for the Secret Realm to reopen.”
Having said all that needed to be said, they stepped aside, watching as Li Zhirui and others entered. When the last Cultivator also disappeared on top of the Teleportation Array, they closed the Teleportation Array.
Li Zhirui only felt darkness before his eyes, followed by a strong sense of dizziness. But the mont his feet touched the ground, he forced himself to wake up and summoned Thousand Spirits to protect his safety.
The Five-colored Secret Realm was very dangerous, as it bred many Devil Beasts, especially Demonic Insects! They were incredibly powerful and nurous. Once a target was detected, thousands of Demonic Insects would swarm, making them difficult to deal with.
Buzz buzz buzz—
Before Li Zhirui could heave a sigh of relief, the sound of insect buzzing reached his ears. He turned his head to see dozens of fist-sized, fla-patterned bees appearing not far from him.
“Fla-Loving Bees?”
Li Zhirui’s expression changed. These were one of the most troubleso Demonic Insects in the Five-colored Secret Realm. It was hard to say whether his luck was good or bad.
Buzz!
At this mont, the Fla-Loving Bees also spotted Li Zhirui and imdiately emitted a high-frequency sound before charging at him without hesitation, completely disregarding the vast difference in strength between them.
“Damn it!” Li Zhirui cursed under his breath, turning to flee imdiately.
The piercing sound just now was signaling the Fla-Loving Bees within a hundred miles radius!
He refrained from attacking because the Fla-Loving Bees had a special Heavenly Gifted Divine Power; once you’ve killed one, a curse would linger on you.
This curse had no other effects; it couldn’t cause harm or pose any other threats, except for one thing—it would let other Fla-Loving Bees know that you had the life of their kin on your hands!
Moreover, right after killing a Fla-Loving Bee, the curse acted like a beacon, and Fla-Loving Bees within a hundred miles could ‘sll’ it and swarm towards the location.
Therefore, Li Zhirui would rather flee than confront these unintelligent Demonic Insects.
Luckily, his Escape Skill was excellent, and he successfully shook off the group of Fla-Loving Bees.
Once Li Zhirui was safe, he began to consider what to do next.
“The primary objective is to obtain the Essence of the Five Elents. I don’t expect to be able to gather all five, but at least two or three types, supplented by Mana, could barely form a Five Phases generating cycle.”
Li Zhirui muttered to himself, “The Fla-Loving Bees like to live in hot areas abundant with fire, which ans the area I am in should be the Fire Domain.”
The Five-colored Secret Realm was roughly divided into five domains based on the distribution of the Five Elents: tal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
Li Zhirui took out the detailed map he had purchased to confirm his location, and it also marked several places where Fire Essence might appear.
One of them was not very far from him, so he made his way there.
Due to the vast numbers of Demonic Insects, Li Zhirui dared not fly through the air but chose to travel by Wood Escape, which was not much slower than flying in terms of speed, although it consud more Mana.
If it were not for safety considerations, he would not do this.
Moreover, after these demonic insects are killed, not much Spiritual Objects can be collected from them. They are nurous, troubleso, and result in very little gain. Most cultivators share the sa attitude as Li Zhirui: avoid them if possible.
Of course, there are also a few cultivators who are very fond of demonic insects, naly the rare insect cultivators!
Traveling by Escape Skill, Li Zhirui smoothly arrived in front of a majestic and towering volcano.
Although the volcano had not erupted yet, he still felt unbearably hot and had to use Mana to support a barrier to withstand the heat.
Just by this alone, it was indeed very likely that Fire Essence could be born.
As soon as Li Zhirui started up the mountain, he carefully began his search.
Less than fifteen minutes had passed when he saw a streak of golden light flash before his eyes. The cultivator who saw Li Zhirui paused for a mont and kindly warned:
“Run for it! So bastard has provoked the Magma Flying Ants in the volcano, and they are about to co.”
Upon hearing the na of this demonic insect, Li Zhirui felt rather helpless.
It was such luck to encounter both the Fla-Loving Bee and the Magma Flying Ant, which are rare within the group-living and extrely violent demonic insects, one after another!
If the two were to be compared, the Magma Flying Ants are even more ferocious for two reasons: one is that they are more nurous, and the other is their incredibly fast speed. Moreover, they also possess a certain ability to break through Formations.
‘With such good luck, it’s possible I could collect the Essence of the Five Elents all at once,’ thought Li Zhirui while making a light-hearted escape.
Li Zhirui did not run down the mountain like the previous cultivator, but instead planned to detour around the Magma Flying Ants and continue exploring the volcano.
Boom—
A large swarm of Magma Flying Ants flapped their wings, creating a thundering noise.
Even from a distance, Li Zhirui could hear it clearly, estimating at least a hundred thousand Magma Flying Ants!
‘Did that cultivator collapse the ants’ nest or do so incredible act to be chased by so many flying ants?’
Li Zhirui greatly admired the other party for their bravery.
However, it also created a great opportunity for him; with a large number of Magma Flying Ants chasing that cultivator, their defense was significantly weakened, making Li Zhirui much safer.
With a cautious mindset, Li Zhirui slowly approached the volcanic crater, and what he saw was a large section of collapsed rock wall. Looking through the ruins, he could see the figures of nurous Magma Flying Ants.
Good Heavens, the nest of the ants had been directly destroyed.
Whoever achieved this must be very powerful, as the ant nest was reinforced with many Spiritual Objects. Along with the continuous reinforcent by the flying ants, their defensive capability had probably reached the strength of a Grade Six Defensive Treasure.
These matters had little relation to Li Zhirui; what he wanted the most was a piece of Fire Essence!
Watching the magma constantly boiling and tumbling below, Li Zhirui’s eyes kept searching for Fire Essence, but he wasn’t finding any.
“Could it be that Fire Essence doesn’t exist here?”
If that were the case, Li Zhirui was not prepared to waste more ti here.
Just as he was about to leave, the magma suddenly surged, and several pieces of Fire Essence were flushed out.
“Is there really so much Fire Essence?”
Li Zhirui’s eyes lit up. He was not greedy; two would be enough.
One for his own Cultivation, and the other he planned to bring back to his clan, to be integrated into the clan’s Fire Vein, enhancing the power of the Earth Fire.
The volcanic crater was quite far from the magma, and Li Zhirui couldn’t directly reach out to grab the Fire Essence, so he had to take the risk of flying into the volcano and then act.
Hum!
As soon as Li Zhirui showed himself, a large number of demonic ants flew out from the nest and angrily ca towards him.
Clearly, the flying ants with low Spiritual Intelligence mistook him for the person who had destroyed their nest!
