Dangross was still in a daze when Toby opened his mouth with a furious roar, simultaneously spewing a breath of fire that burned Dangross from head to toe.
Dangross was first pushed aside, then sprayed with fire all over, leaving him completely baffled, unable to understand why the ancestral descendant he worshipped treated him this way.
Toby snorted coldly, responding to his confusion with action.
Toby gradually reverted from a giant Gryphon back into a little seabird, then flew onto Angel’s shoulder, holding his head high as he strutted back and forth, demonstrating his dominance to Dangross.
Previously, when Dangross wanted to talk to Toby, he climbed onto Angel’s shoulder. Now, Toby has claid the high ground of the shoulder, posing in a provocative manner, making Dangross understand his intention.
——Angel’s shoulder, this sacred place belongs to him, and it shall not be infringed!
A low laugh with a throaty sound erged from the mouth of Magma Midir: "It seems the Fla Gryphon has a very good relationship with Mr. Pat."
Angel already understood Toby’s aning when Toby yelled "get off" at Dangross.
Watching Toby swaggering back and forth on his shoulder, Angel found it amusing. But being in soone else’s territory, he couldn’t undermine Toby’s act and could only pretend not to understand, smiling faintly without speaking.
Magma Midir didn’t dwell further on this topic, retracting his smile as he said to Angel: "Although it might be a bit presumptuous, I would still like to offer a suggestion to you."
Angel looked at Magma Midir, waiting for him to speak.
"The World’s Harmony is a grand event for all creatures in the Tidal World, lasting a whole day during which many lives will be born, and many lives will undergo leap transitions in their life’s essence, radiating new life," said Magma Midir, "Of course, this is not only beneficial for us. Mr. Pat and this newly leveled Fla Gryphon can also gain great enhancents from the World’s Harmony."
"And within the Region of Fire, the place most deeply bathed by the World’s Harmony, is right here."
By this point, Angel already understood his implication.
Although Toby’s Gryphon form has just leveled up, Angel can still clearly feel that most of the fla energy in the volcano’s crater is pouring into Toby’s body, and his inner Fla Power has yet to reach its saturation limit.
If pursued through normal cultivation, Toby might require many years to reach the upper limit of fla endurance, but if he takes advantage of the Elental Tide, in the place where the energy level is highest in this Region of Fire, he can certainly reach saturation at the fastest speed.
Considered from future prospects, Toby should indeed stay here to continue enhancing at this mont.
This is the suggestion given by Magma Midir.
At this ti, Angel felt a bit torn. Although Magma Midir’s suggestion was good, he was worried about the risk of leaving Toby alone here.
Seeing Angel’s hesitation, Magma Midir seed to have discerned it, gently saying, "The World’s Harmony also brings substantial benefits for Teacher Magu, so after the World’s Harmony concludes, you might want to seek out Teacher Magu."
Angel understood that the best plan was to accompany Toby here, but since this is Magma Midir’s nest, he felt embarrassed to voice this thought.
Since Magma Midir provided an opening, Angel naturally took it and stepped down graciously.
"Sorry for bothering your Highness."
Magma Midir indicated that it was no issue.
Only then did Angel let Toby revert back to a Gryphon, continuing his dip in the magma. Toby too wished to continue advancing here, though he was a bit worried that once he left, Dangross might snatch his spot.
Angel, with a chuckle, reassured Toby that Dangross would not be allowed to climb up, only then was Toby satisfied to transform back into a Gryphon, re-entering the magma.
While Toby began enjoying the magma bath, Angel did not forget about Earl Mi.
Although Earl Mi is an awakened Demon Person, having taken a different path in the power system, the essence of elental energy remains unchanged across different worlds, Earl Mi can still receive augntations through the Elental Tide.
Earl Mi also transford into a shadow of fire, entering the magma pool, silently experiencing the baptism of the Elental Tide on the other side of Toby.
While both benefactors are quietly enhancing, Magma Midir looked to Angel and said: "Mr. Pat, you could also cultivate the Fla Power here just like them."
Angel smiled wryly and shook his head: "My research on the Fire Elent is not profound, and I’ve already reached elental saturation."
"I see." Magma Midir nodded, his gaze shifting to Angel’s left earlobe, where the fla mark still shimred with red light: "Perhaps you could let this fla mark absorb the power of the World’s Harmony, it appears to be quite eager for fla energy."
Angel glanced at Magma Midir lightly, sensing that Midir seed to speak calmly, but his eyes sparkled.
It’s evident that he hasn’t given up on probing the fla mark.
Magma Midir laid so much groundwork earlier, presumably to propose this suggestion, intending to leverage this chance to uncover the fla mark.
Angel had already discerned Magma Midir’s motive, yet he hadn’t planned on refusing.
Because Magma Midir’s proposal was indeed correct, the fla mark bestowed by Odeclass was exhibiting such flickering behavior for the first ti, and as its bearer, Angel could distinctly feel the fla mark’s unparalleled thirst for external elental surge.
The power of the fla mark had waned considerably since leaving the Abyss, and if it could replenish its strength during the Elental Tide, it would be a boon for Angel too.
Therefore, Angel indeed intended to seize this opportunity to allow the fla mark to get replenished.
As for Magma Midir wishing to research... let him research, since the power of the fla mark stems from Odeclass; if it can indeed be studied, it would be quite an achievent.
Angel nodded towards Magma Midir: "Many thanks to your Highness for the suggestion, I indeed share this intention."
Magma Midir’s eyes lit up, his breath seemingly quickened.
To avoid revealing his eagerness, Midir restrained his excitent, saying to Angel: "Then I’ll head to the other side, so as not to disturb your imrsion into the World’s Harmony."
"Dangross, follow ."
Magma Midir took along the still baffled Dangross, instantly withdrawing to three hundred ters away from the volcano’s mouth, seemingly closing his eyes to ditate, but Angel was convinced that Midir was still monitoring the situation here. The reason for retreating so far, presumably truly feared disturbing the fla mark’s absorption of Elental Tide power, considering it would indeed be difficult to conduct research if disturbed.
Angel ignored Midir’s little sches, leaning against the rock wall, ditating quietly while activating the fla mark.
With just a thought, the fla mark imdiately transitioned from a closed-off state to sensing the Elental Tide.
The Elental Tide energy previously completely insulated from Angel now began pouring into his earlobe.
The speed was fast, the energy surging, even forming a torrent of fire in front of Angel.
The abrupt appearance of this fire torrent srized Magma Midir’s gaze, his eyes filled with inquiry, seemingly trying to peer through the fire torrent to observe the terrifying fla mark.
The fire torrent continued for a full half day, during which Magma Midir’s gaze never faltered.
After another two hours, Angel finally felt a sense of fullness from the Fla Mark.
The Fla Mark had been replenished after the washing of the Elental Tide, refilling all previously consud energy. Although it did not absorb Odeclass’s strength, it was sufficient to release Fla Power matching Odeclass’s energy level.
This further enhanced Angel’s self-protection strength.
Initially, Angel considered continuing to absorb the power of the Elental Tide to enhance the Prival Fla within the Fla Mark. However, the Prival Fla showed no reaction to the Elental Tide’s washing, and even the Elental Tide’s power dared not approach the Prival Fla within the Fla Mark.
This demonstrates that the energy level of the Prival Fla is far higher than the strength of the Elental Tide.
It is worth noting that the power of the Elental Tide is almost akin to the special rules of the Tidal World; yet even so, it still cannot compare to Baiyuan’s fla...
Angel could only helplessly shut down the power of the Fla Mark.
Once closed, the Fla Mark ceased to flicker, reverting to an ordinary pattern, appearing unremarkable. However, all who witnessed the previous fla torrent knew the vast power this Fla Mark held.
Previously, Midir might have harbored so intentions for force, but now, such thoughts were completely dispelled by the awe the Fla Mark instilled in it.
Angel calculated the ti and realized there should be about two hours left before the Elental Tide ended.
Since he had nothing else to do, he decided to begin collecting the fire elental crystals falling from the sky.
Although these fire elental crystals were not particularly valuable demonic materials, they were plentiful, and the quality of fla within them wasn’t bad, akin to a miniature manifestation of the Elental Tide.
He planned to collect as many as possible, and then use the Extraordinary Extractor to store the Fla Power, which could be used for alchemy in the future.
This was far superior to the so-called Treasure Liquid of the Shannon Royal Family.
Perhaps this power could be integrated into more powerful tools, refining works above the Interdiate Rank.
However, this was rely a conjecture, and whether it could be successful still required actual research.
After collecting ten thousand fire elental crystals, Angel used the Extraordinary Extractor to concentrate them, having done so nearly a hundred tis already, yielding a bottle of extrely dense transcendent red light within the extractor.
At this point, the "fire rain" from the sky ceased, and the Elental Tide entered its countdown stage.
Angel cautiously packed the special collection bottle and then turned to look at the approaching Midir.
Midir did not ask Angel what he was doing, rely nodding respectfully at Angel and handing over Dangross: "I gained a lot during the Elental Tide and might need to retreat for a few days. I hope to communicate with you again upon ergence."
Angel: "You’re welco anyti."
Midir finished speaking, flapped its massive demon wings, and flew into a crevice within the volcano, disappearing from sight.
Watching Midir’s figure gradually vanish, Angel knew clearly that Midir hadn’t engaged in much cultivation during the Elental Tide, nor could it have gained anything from it. However, its claim of having gained substantially might not be unfounded, likely having researched sothing from the Fla Mark, prompting its hasty retreat.
Angel didn’t intend to inquire further, knowing the owner of the Fla Mark was Odeclass, rendering any discoveries inconsequential to him.
Instead of this, Angel was more concerned about the harvest of Toby and Earl Mi.
Angel looked down at the volcano’s interior, Toby had finished its cultivation already, treading flas as it chased a fiery silhouette flying up from below.
The fiery silhouette was Earl Mi, who ca to Angel’s side, seamlessly rging into his shadow.
Toby caught up and circled Angel’s shadow a few tis, loudly trying to pull Earl Mi out from it.
Angel initially thought Toby and Earl Mi might have fought below, but upon closer listening, he realized Toby’s surge in strength had inflated its pride, chanting provocatively about the "Wildcat in Bloom" to engage in another grand battle with Earl Mi.
Yet, Earl Mi completely ignored Toby’s presence, not bothering to acknowledge it.
Unable to get Earl Mi’s response, Toby ultimately reverted to a small seaside bird, sulking on Angel’s shoulder.
Upon seeing Toby, Dangross’s eyes lit up with admiration, seemingly forgetting the previous cruelty of being swatted away, and clung to Angel’s clothing trying to climb to Toby’s side.
However, before it could reach the shoulder, Toby kicked Dangross away again.
Toby cursed at Dangross, who didn’t seem to grasp it fully, but certainly dared not approach Angel further.
Angel then summoned the Hand of Magic to pinch Dangross.
Toby leapt to Angel’s head, settling atop his hair.
Angel intended to pull Toby down but considered Toby’s current psychological state, rely attempting to express territorial rights; removing Toby might provoke its rebellious spirit.
"Just this once," Angel transmitted to Toby, granting it face.
Toby chirped in acknowledgnt.
Angel then ignored Toby and looked at Dangross: "Next, I’ll trouble you, lead us to et Teacher Magu."
...
After flying for about ten minutes, Angel finally reached the vast expanse of the Lava Lake.
During the journey, Angel encountered many fire elent creatures, including the previously sighted Phoenix.
Perhaps due to past battles, Phoenix held a bit of hostility towards him, but due to the New King’s orders, Phoenix did nothing too disrespectful, rely uttering a harsh parting threat as Angel departed.
This threat was not directed at Angel; it expressed its desire to fight Earl Mi once more.
Angel responded as he did with Midir, saying "you’re welco anyti," before swiftly distancing himself from Phoenix.
Aside from Phoenix, other fire elent creatures showed no hostility towards Angel; he had barely acted before them, and even when he did, they failed to notice.
These fire elent creatures were curious about Angel but refrained from approaching, opting only to observe from afar.
Angel found this sowhat regrettable, as his purpose of visiting the Tidal World included sourcing information on Feng and another objective: acquiring an elental companion.
Among these nurous fire elent creatures, there were certainly ones suitable for him, and establishing cordial dialogue might allow him to entice them away...
