Chapter 0878: Enchanting Fire Water Pond

Li Luo's heart skipped a beat after hearing Li Lingjing's words. He thought about it carefully.

Without a doubt, he needed to obtain a Sacred Infant Fruit. He had taken such a huge risk with the Soul Eater True Devil just so he could get one.

If he went back without it, not only would his mission have failed, but more importantly, they would not be able to cure Ox Biaobiao's injuries.

As for an opportunity to reach the Tri-Radiance Glass Fiend Tier? Li Luo had no idea where to begin at all! However, if what Li Lingjing had told him about the rare opportunity was true, it would be worth giving it a shot. But... could she be trusted?

He was hesitant as he stared at Li Lingjing.

After pondering for a short while, he made his choice decisively. Both the Sacred Infant Fruit and Tri-Radiance Glass Fiend Tier were essential. Since the Li Lingjing in front of him was already gravely wounded, she posed little threat to him now. It did not matter whether her words could really be trusted or not.

Even if anything were to happen halfway, Li Luo was still confident that he could get away safely.

"Can I bring my companions along?" Li Luo asked in order to get some more insurance.

It would be even safer if Li Fengyi and the rest could come along.

"They were corrupted by the Soul Eater True Devil earlier and are still in a state of confusion. If you're going to wait for them, I am afraid it'll take a few more days before they can fully regain their consciousness," Li Lingjing answered after giving it some thought.

"However, I do not recommend that you wait for such a long time."

"Why not?" Li Luo asked after hearing her words. He looked at her with some suspicion in his eyes.

Li Lingjing also understood that her words would naturally raise his wariness. She let out a sigh and continued, "Looking at the incomplete memories that I obtained from the Soul Eater True Devil, there are naturally some complications. I do not know the specifics, but given the changes that happened here, I feel that it's best if we leave here as soon as possible."

"I don't even know if I should believe you and yet everything is decided by you?" Li Luo said with some uncertainty after hearing her explanation. What other complications were there other than the Soul Eater True Devil?

However, he was a decisive person. After a brief pause, he said, "Alright, I'll believe you for once. Lead the way."

At the same time, he threw a jade-tablet scroll into the air. It floated in midair, and faint light glowed around it. With this, he left some words behind just in case Li Fengyi and the rest regained their consciousness while he was gone. At least they would understand the situation and would not need to worry about him.

Li Lingjing waited patiently for him to finish up before she transformed into a black light and moved towards the deeper parts of the mountain range.

Taking a deep breath, Li Luo summoned up his resonant power. A lightning flash appeared under his feet and he followed suit rapidly.

With that, the two of them hurried into the deeper parts of the Crimson Fire Mountain Range. It took them approximately four hours to arrive at the entrance of a giant volcano.

There were many Fire Spirit Monkeys loitering around the entrance. Seeing this, Li Lingjing expanded her aura. Acting as if they had encountered something menacing, the monkeys all hurried away.

After which, the two of them were able to reach the top of the volcano smoothly. When Li Luo looked into the volcano’s opening, he could feel the extremely hot magma boiling within.

A flame tree was growing out of one of the walls around the side. All the way at the top of the tree were two faint, red fruits.

The fruits had the shape of an infant and were around the size of one's fist. From time to time, fire would pulse out of them. It was a truly unusual sight.

These were the Sacred Infant Fruits, the objective of Li Luo's mission.

The magma below was constantly roiling, and huge waves swept up from time to time. When it washed up against the Sacred Infant Fruits, their red color turned even more intense.

It seemed that this was how the Sacred Infant Fruits matured. Day after day, the magma refined them until they were fully ripe.

Unfortunately, the two Sacred Infant Fruits in front of him still had a long time to go before they were fully ripened. Furthermore, they did not appear to be of high quality.

Li Luo was disappointed by this. He turned back towards the black light Li Lingjing and asked, "Where's the thing you were talking about?"

Using her eyes, she signaled towards the magma in the volcano.

Li Luo's face changed immediately when he noticed this. "Is it in the depths of the volcano? How can I enter? This is no ordinary magma." Magma with the ability to create a treasure like the Sacred Infant Fruit was clearly different from the ordinary magma in the outside world. Its temperature and destructive strength were much more frightening.

"There's no need to enter the magma directly." Li Lingjing let out a light laugh. In the next moment, she spat out a black light that flew into the dense forest around the volcano. After a short while, an enormous Fire Spirit Monkey was dragged out of the forest.

Judging from its energy undulations, this Fire Spirit Monkey had the power of a human at the Heavenly Resonance Tier. It was most likely the leader amongst the Fire Spirit Monkeys of this district. However, it shivered in fear in front of Li Lingjing, who was currently in the Soul Eater True Devil's body and exuded a terrifying aura of corruption.

She did not say anything. She simply continued to manipulate the corruption within the Fire Spirit Monkey, breaking its spirit with sheer terror.

A few moments later, the Fire Spirit Monkey reached its limit and appeared to be losing its mind. Seeing this, Li Lingjing threw it straight into the mouth of the volcano.

Although the Fire Spirit Monkey fell into the volcano, it did not drop into the magma. It landed around the walls of the volcano and frantically tried to climb out, scratching wildly and trying to escape as if it had gone mad from the fear.

Li Luo was puzzled by this. What was Li Lingjing trying to do?

Nonetheless, the answer was soon revealed. As the Fire Spirit Monkey ran around in desperation, it managed to destroy a part of the rocks. A crack appeared, and the Fire Spirit Monkey squeezed into it and disappeared.

"Follow after it," Li Lingjing shouted as she transformed into a black light and flew over.

Li Luo's eyes were still full of surprise. Who would have expected that such an opportunity would require a Fire Spirit Monkey to lead the way?

He hesitated for a slight moment before he followed them.

The crack was pretty narrow, but it was still large enough for a human to pass through. Inside, the air made them feel like they were in purgatory. Li Luo and Li Lingjing followed after the frightened Fire Spirit Monkey from a distance, and the scenery before them opened up once again after a few dozen minutes.

Li Luo stood upright and looked at what was before him. His eyes were full of bewilderment.

There was a wide, empty space in front of him filled with hot, rising air. Fiery-red rocks were piled up with a hole in the middle. The hole was full of crimson liquid, turning it into a fiery-red pond.

As Li Luo stared at the pond, his eyes suddenly widened. He could clearly sense that all the worldly natural energy in the area was pouring into the pond.

Moreover, the liquid in the pond was unusually special. Although it looked like water, it was actually a bunch of balls of burning flames upon closer look.

It was difficult to tell if it was water or fire.

Li Luo stared at the Enchanting Fire Water Pond for a good, long while before his attention shifted. He noticed two golden fruits floating quietly on the pond.

The fruits looked like infants glowing in golden light, with flames coming out of their eyes and noses.

Li Luo took a light breath of the burning air. Happiness welled up in his eyes.

Those were the Sacred Infant Fruits that he had been looking for!

With the golden glow and flames coming out of the eyes and noses, these fruits were of the highest quality. They were far superior to the two unripe fruits that he had seen earlier.

Li Lingjing was not lying to him. He could really find better Sacred Infant Fruits over here!

In that case, the Tri-Radiance Glass Fiend Tier opportunity that she was talking about...

Could it be because of the Enchanting Fire Water Pond?
