After the Grim Winged Serpent thoroughly checked the surroundings around the Spirit Fire Mountain and confirmed that there weren't any kind of ambush or people present in the vicinity, it finally relaxed.
However, it didn't dare to land on the rocky surface, afraid those rocky beings would emerge again and cause a commotion, which might alert the aborigines. It was already a hassle enough to get rid of the ones chasing it before.
'I hope this will work…' The Grim Winged Serpent thought before a multicolor boulder like a rainbow emerged in front of it, and it was wrapped under its Qi. Still, despite that, a strange fluctuation was emitting from the two-meter boulder, and it was glowing in different colors.
After, it guided that boulder with its Qi and landed it on the ground gently, avoiding those pebbles.
'This Myriad Star Stone is an extremely rare high-grade-7 material that is used to create Fire Element Treasures. This boulder might be the only piece present in the entire world, and the Spirit Fire would also draw towards it because it contains faint traces of a Spirit Fire-like aura.
'The Fox Ancestor was really genius when it came to alchemy, and she was a lunatic for research and might be able to reach the very pinnacle of our world's alchemy if not dying in that war and made our race the true overlord. But alas, her brilliance caused her downfall since the other races won't allow such a threat to exist.' The Grim Winged Serpent thought pensively as images of the past rose in his mind before it buried away again.
The next moment, a vial appeared in front of the Grim Winged Serpent, which was filled with a glowing orange liquid, 'This will be the true catalyst to draw the Spirit Fire in the open. This High-Grade-7 Sun Essence Potion, the moment it comes in contact with the Myriad Star Stone, should be able to create a fake Spirit Fire like Qi.
'According to the Fox Ancestor, the Spirit Fire considers other weak Spirit Fire food and can evolve faster by devouring each other. I just hope she was right about this conjecture of hers basic on those incomprehensible texts…'
The Grim Winged Serpent's expression was solemn as it shot that glowing glass vial toward the Myriad Star Stone, and it instantly shattered the moment it smashed onto the stone's hard surface.
The very next moment thereafter, a strange phenomenon took place when the Sun Essence Potion came in contact with the Myriad Star Stone. The boulder suddenly ignited into an orange fire while releasing a rainbow color projection on top of it, which was extremely hot. Just by looking at it, one could feel their eyes were burning.
As time passed, the orange flames started to burn even more brightly and rose higher, covering the ground below it.
'Rumble…'
Suddenly a powerful tremor ran through the land because the burning mountain abruptly started to shake like crazy before the ruby color flames over it churned and burned brightly as cracks started to appear on the mountain.
However, the burning mountain wasn't breaking. Instead, it was rising while making cracking sounds and taking the shape of something.
This scene completely flabbergasted the spectator, which also made their blood run cold because a terrifying aura started to emit from the creature, which was being shaped out of the Spirit Fire Mountain.
It took over a minute for the burning mountain to fully formed, and it turned into a four-legged giant turtle that was ablaze on the ruby flames and completely made out of rocks; at least it looked this way.
The Grim Winged Serpent instantly flew a hundred meters back as it was getting a very dangerous feeling from that flame turtle, and its expression was grave as it was clearly not capable of facing off with that thing.
Just the heat coming from those flames would burn it into ashes. It was never suspected that there was such a monster guarding the spirit fire. Clearly, the Fox Ancestor wasn't aware of it either since she wasn't strong enough to arouse the Spirit Fire's interest.
Nevertheless, the Grim Winged Serpent knew the trap was working, and now what was left was getting the Spirit Fire under this massive turtle's protection. He will only get one shot at it, and then he needed to flee with everything it had.
Right at this moment, the flame turtle suddenly opened its massive stony mouth, and something extremely bright, like the sun, flew out from it, and temperature over ten miles rose massively the moment this thing flew out from the turtle's mouth.
The bright thing was actually just a meter in diameter ethereal ruby flame, which seemed to have a mind of its own as it flickered strongly in front of the burring Myriad Star Stone.
After a few moments, it suddenly churned crazily before it shot toward the burning boulder and then completely encased it.
'Now!' The Grim Winged Serpent's eyes shone decisively as if it was now or never.
A yellowish formation plate appeared in front of it, and thereafter it glows in black runes.
Thereby, the ruby spirit fire, which now fully encased the boulder, suddenly flickered as if it felt something was wrong. But alas, it was too late because the Myriad Star Stone suddenly cracked open, and an antique black lamp suddenly emerged from it.
The moment that Antique Lamp appeared, a strange suction force surrounded it and started to suck every flame around it. This includes the Spirit Fire.
Spirit Fire seemed to have sensed the danger as it tried to flee, but it failed as the mysterious lamp had a strange power that seemed to restrict it fully, and without giving the Spirit Fire even a chance to retaliate, it sucked it inside within a few moments!
It all happened too fast that the flame turtle reacted too late, and the black lamp, which was now lit in ruby light, was already started to fly toward the sky like an arrow, leaving behind nothing but the charred ground and a broken boulder.
The Grim Winged Serpent's eyes were filled with mirth as everything went smoothly, and the Spirit Fire was now its to take, and that massive turtle would never be able to catch up to him.
But then something happened. A black streak suddenly emerged between the Grim Winged Serpent and the incoming Black Lamp and grabbed the Black Lamp at lightning speed before fleeing under the gobsmacked Grim Winged Serpent's eyes.
The formation plate in front of the Grim Winged Serpent also explodes at this moment.
When the Grim Winged Serpent realized what had happened, his infuriated expression was a sight to behold as it roared wrathfully and quickly gave chase behind the black streak.
"Thief! Stop right there!"
