"You're far too kind, Mr. Mo Hai." An Lin smiled lightly.
This kind of situation had happened far too many times, so he was already used to it.
Mo Hai made his way over to the Black Crystal Flame Python before slicing its body open with his saber.
A ball of flames in the shape of a crimson wing burned brightly within the python's body. Pure flame power rippled outward, creating an invigorating sight to behold.
"You're quite lucky to have found a intermediate-grade projection of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing on the first earth fire mutant beast. Here, An Lin, take it and absorb its energy!" Mo Hai handed the flame wing to An Lin with a smile.
The flame wing couldn't be stowed away into storage rings, so each person could only take one flame wing with them when they returned to the Vermilion Bird Sect. Their target was the high-grade projection of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing, so they naturally chose to absorb the energy of these low-grade flame wings.
An Lin accepted the projection of the flame wing and activated an absorption spell technique to absorb the flame power within it into his body.
The flame wing was imbued with an extremely vast amount of flame power that was comparable to the effect of a top-grade spirit pill.
After absorbing the flame power from the flame wing, his eyes became extremely bright, and the four Divine Flames within his body all received a slight boost.
"This flame wing really is good stuff. If we continue to hunt mutant beasts here and absorb these flame wings, I'm sure we'll be able to make a huge breakthrough in the Dao of flame power!" An Lin exclaimed.
Mo Hai shook his head with a smile. "Only you, Mr. An Lin, would say something like that. All of our sect disciples risk their lives to come to this forbidden area, and we'd be thanking the heavens if we could obtain a intermediate-grade projection of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing. We wouldn't dare to treat this place like a hunting ground …"
An Lin's eyes lit up. "Is there a time limit to the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds?"
Mo Hai faltered slightly upon hearing this. "The red teleportation badge can last for about seven days. Once the time is up, the red teleportation badge will automatically teleport us back to the Vermilion Bird Sect. Of course, we can also activate it earlier after we obtain the flame wing. Mr. An Lin, you're not planning to keep collecting flame wings here, are you? This alternate world is far more dangerous than you and I can imagine. Over twenty Soul Formation Final Stage cultivators have perished here. "
"Don't worry. I won't be staying here for too long. Let's continue hunting," An Lin said with a smile.
If he couldn't stay for seven days, he would stay for six!
Mo Hai heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that An Lin was no longer interested.
He had now acknowledged An Lin's strength. If the two of them worked together, even if they encountered a Heavenly Fire Exotic Beast, they might be able to kill it without using that priceless artifact.
If there were no accidents, he would be able to collect two high-grade fire feathers in four days.
The two of them didn't waste any more time. They soared into the sky again and went deep into the mountains.
Unknowingly, another twenty hours had passed.
The two of them had slain over a dozen spirit fire mutant beasts and four earth fire mutant beasts in total, which was quite a bountiful harvest, but they didn't encounter any heavenly fire mutant beasts.
"Hua!"
A crimson saber projection over a hundred feet in length imbued with terrifying flame power tore through the White Flame Tiger's flame domain, instantly slicing its massive body in half.
Mo Hai retracted his saber with a disdainful expression on his face. "You're just a little kitten, how dare you challenge me? What an ignorant fool!"
"Clap clap clap …" An Lin applauded. "That's seventy points for acting tough. If you hadn't been looking at the tiger on the ground and had instead been looking at the sky, you would've gotten another ten points!"
Mo Hai nodded with a humble expression. "Thank you for your guidance, Mr. An Lin. I'll be sure to pay more attention next time!"
An Lin nodded with a gratified expression. During the boring mutant beast hunting journey, he would occasionally give Mo Hai pointers on how to act tough. As such, Mo Hai's acting tough skills had improved by leaps and bounds during this period of time.
Mo Hai absorbed the flame power of the Vermilion Bird Flame Wing projection and nodded with satisfaction. "Let's go and continue searching for heavenly fire mutant beasts."
An Lin didn't move. Instead, he stared at the White Flame Tiger's white flesh with hints of gold.
He calculated the time and realized that it was about time for his frying pan to recover its power. He couldn't let this opportunity to cook go to waste. After all, this was an extremely delicious dish!
"Mr. An Lin, what's wrong?" Mo Hai asked curiously at the sight of An Lin's strange expression.
"Huh?" An Lin came to his senses and asked with a serious expression, "Mr. Mo Hai, are you hungry?"
Mo Hai shook his head. "I'm a Soul Formation Stage cultivator. I won't be affected by not eating for a few days."
An Lin nodded. "As long as you're not hungry. I'm going to cook a portion of tiger meat first. I'm warning you, don't try to steal my meat later!"
He walked toward the White Flame Tiger with his Evil-Slaying Sword in hand as he spoke.
Mo Hai stared at An Lin with a confused expression. "You're going to cook tiger meat now? You're scared that I'm going to steal your meat? Are you kidding me? What the hell are you thinking?! "
An Lin ignored Mo Hai's words and brought out his frying pan from his storage ring. He started a fire and tossed the white tiger meat into the air. His Evil-Slaying Sword transformed into a series of black shadows as it sliced the huge piece of meat into several hundred well-proportioned and translucent pieces of meat. The pieces of meat then fell into the frying pan and began to stir-fry!
Mo Hai couldn't help but raise his thumb at An Lin's smooth and fluid movements. "You're an expert!"
As he continued to stir-fry, an alluring aroma finally began to waft through the air.
Mo Hai's body trembled as an expression of incredulity appeared on his face. "Holy f * ck, this smell … Could it be that the White Flame Tiger's meat is a top-notch ingredient?!"
"Hehe, the Flame Vanquishing White Tiger is only a slightly better ingredient at most. The key is still my cooking skills. Otherwise, do you think I would just toss such a huge White Tiger carcass onto the ground?" An Lin chuckled lightly.
Mo Hai thought about it and agreed with An Lin.
As the aroma grew stronger and stronger, the meat was about to be cooked. He couldn't help but swallow as he stared at the meat in the frying pan with a scorching gaze. "Can I take back what I just said?"
An Lin glanced at Mo Hai. "Didn't you say you weren't hungry? Didn't you say I was joking?"
An awkward expression appeared on Mo Hai's face. "I was just spouting nonsense! I haven't eaten for a few days. Can you take pity on me and give me some of the meat in the frying pan? "
An Lin replied in a resolute voice, "No!"
Mo Hai: "…"
Right at this moment, a few huge wolves emitting black flames slowly approached An Lin. They stared intently at the meat in the frying pan with dangerous and greedy expressions on their faces.
"Wow, my meat can even attract mutant beasts. I've struck gold, I've struck gold …" An elated expression appeared on An Lin's face as he looked at the huge wolves.
"Mr. An Lin, leave your safety to me. Leave these ancient ferocious wolves to me! Don't worry, just give me some of the meat to replenish my energy after I take care of these monsters! "Mo Hai's battle intent surged.
Right at this moment, the flaming clouds in the distance surged violently.
A white figure flew toward them with over a thousand flaming birds trailing behind her.
"Shangguan Yi!" Mo Hai faltered slightly upon seeing this figure.
The Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds were so big, so it was quite a coincidence that they were able to meet here. Unfortunately, it didn't seem to be a very friendly encounter.
Behind Shangguan Yi, over a thousand flaming birds surged toward them like a sea of flames, and their terrifying aura made it difficult for him to breathe.
The six-winged golden flaming bird at the very front was a heavenly fire mutant beast!
"Mr. Mo Hai, Mr. An Lin! Please help me stall these flaming birds for ten seconds while I prepare a spell technique! "Shangguan Yi's face was deathly pale as she transmitted her voice to An Lin from afar.
An Lin was also dumbstruck for a few seconds. "Holy f * ck, Shangguan Yi, you're better at absorbing monsters than I am! Over a thousand of them at once! "
An awkward expression appeared on Shangguan Yi's face upon hearing this, but she continued to fly toward An Lin and the others at an even faster speed …
An Lin's heart throbbed with pain as he looked at the uncooked meat in the frying pan.
If he were to stall now, then he would have completely wasted the opportunity to enhance the flavor of the frying pan!
"Fellow Daoist Mo Hai, you said that you'd protect me. I'm going to go ahead and leave the flaming birds to you! After you're done, I'll give you a third of my meat! "An Lin looked at Mo Hai with a solemn expression.
Mo Hai almost blacked out upon hearing this. F * ck!
One heavenly fire mutant beast level flaming bird, over a hundred spirit fire mutant beasts, and over a thousand normal fire mutant beasts! How was he going to defend himself?!
"Mr. An Lin, I was just spouting nonsense just then. Can you just pretend I didn't say that?" Mo Hai looked up at the Flaming Birds in the sky, and tears almost flowed from his eyes.
