At this time, he was not far from the Flame Mountain. Looking up, he could see the blazing flames, which dyed half of the sky red.
At the same time, the density of fire beasts in the surroundings was increasing. From time to time, he could see groups of red rhinoceroses and fire elephants. The species of the trees also changed. They were no longer fire pines, but shrubs that were twenty to thirty feet high. There were also some fire fruits that looked like cantaloupes. Qin Di tasted them and felt that they contained rich fire elemental energy. A one-kilogram melon could produce one tael of fire elemental liquid.
Even those shrubs were rich in fire elemental energy. If a branch was broken, he could see a red liquid flowing out of the opening. It was a precious fire elemental liquid after a little refining.
Qin Di thought, "This place is too deep in the mountain. If it was outside, these things would have been robbed long ago."
After that, he climbed over a five thousand zhang tall mountain and descended to the bottom of a valley. Suddenly, he saw two gigantic fire elephants. They were about three hundred zhang long and more than twenty zhang tall. Their footsteps were very heavy, as if they were heavy drums.
The fire elephants staggered towards the bottom of the valley.
Qin Di knew that some beasts did not have genes to control their growth. They were not like humans, who stopped growing when they reached a certain height. Instead, they grew bigger as they grew older. For example, a rat could tell how many months old it was just by looking at its weight. These fire elephants were so huge that they should be near their old age. They were different from the elephants he saw in his previous life.
However, he still felt a little strange. "Fire elephants are already rank eight beasts, and they should have a lifespan of more than a thousand years. I was lucky to see one. How could there be two of them, and why are they walking in the same direction?"
So, he slowed down and followed behind the fire elephants.
The two fire elephants walked very slowly. As they walked, they squinted their eyes and looked around. They kept walking in circles. After two hours, they had only walked ten miles. Even so, they were gradually approaching the bottom of the valley.
Two hours later, the fire elephants stood still at the bottom of the valley near the mountain rocks.
After a while, one of them suddenly disappeared, while the other one was still standing in the same place.
Another hour passed, and the fire elephant was nowhere to be seen.
Qin Di came to the front of the rock and gently parted the bushes and vines hanging down from above. She saw a very large cave.
He walked in quietly, not daring to make a sound.
The inside of the cave was at least thirty thousand feet wide. There were fire elephants' bones everywhere. In the center, there was a pond filled with red liquid.
Qin Di's eyes widened! His heart was thumping wildly.
"Elephant tomb! This is the legendary elephant tomb! That sunken pond in the middle was obviously filled with fire elemental essence! The pond in the middle is obviously filled with fire elemental liquid!
"The Raging Flame Sect is really useless. They've been guarding a treasure mountain, yet they didn't know there was such a tomb!"
"Look at those elephant tusks. Every single one of them is very valuable. If we use them to refine weapons, we just need to add some spirit gold and we'll be able to refine a level eight spirit sword."
"These fire elephants all had to live with inner dans. I don't know if the dans are still after death. If I can get a few, I can refine the eighth rank 'Treasure Elephant Dan', which is of great benefit to the cultivation of the body. What's more, this is a fire elephant. The fire attribute in it can also improve the cultivation of the fire attribute. "
The cultivation of the fire attribute was not finished at the Foundation Building Realm. Afterwards, one had to condense the Gold Core. If the spiritual energy accumulated in the Refinement Stage was in the form of gas, the spiritual energy accumulated in the Foundation Building Realm was in the form of liquid, and the spiritual energy in the Gold Core Stage was in the form of solid. The spiritual energy needed to advance from the Refinement Stage to the Gold Core Stage was enormous. If the spiritual energy of the Refinement Stage was one, the spiritual energy of the Foundation Building Realm was one hundred, and the Gold Core Stage was ten thousand. Therefore, for Qin Di, the more fire elemental liquid he collected, the better.
The two fire elephants that just came in separated from each other and found an empty place to sit quietly with their eyes closed. Clearly, they were waiting for death.
Qin Di hid in a corner of the cave and waited patiently. Seven days later, the first fire elephant fell. Half a month later, the second fire elephant also fell.
Only then did he arrive in front of the fire elephant. He stabbed it with his sword and found that the fire elephant did not move. Only then did he feel relieved to dig out the Inner Core.
The Inner Core of the fire elephant was as big as a bowl. Compared to its huge body, it was very small.
Qin Di dug out two Inner Cores and took four elephant tusks. As for the body of the fire elephant, he did not want it. It took a lot of effort to reach the graveyard, so he had to leave something there. Humans leave their voices, geese pluck their feathers, but one could not pluck out all their feathers.
Then, he came to the pond and took a closer look. He found that the pond was indeed filled with fire elemental liquid. He did not know how many years it had been accumulating.
Qin Di took out the Mountain Flowing Water Jade Bottle and threw it into the pond.
Not long after, all the fire elemental liquid was collected. There was a total of more than six thousand cubic feet. The diameter of the pond was only about a hundred feet. It did not look too big, but unexpectedly, it was very deep. After the fire elemental liquid was collected, a deep pit was formed.
The Mountain Flowing Water Jade Bottle automatically flew back to his palm. At the same time, a voice came: "Master, there is still something good at the bottom of the pond. Go down and take a look."
"Really? What good thing is there? "
Qin Di jumped into the deep pit and saw some scarlet crystals at the bottom of the pit. The small ones were like walnuts, and the big ones were like cantaloupes. They looked sparkling and translucent, like giant rubies. Qin Di couldn't help but be shocked.
"These are fire elemental crystals! I did not expect a part of the liquid fire elemental liquid to solidify! "
Fire elemental crystals were incredible. They were the same substance that Golden Core Masters condensed in their dantian. In other words, once the fire elemental crystals were collected in the dantian and refined, they would become a part of the Golden Core. Moreover, they could be used as food for the Nascent Soul, which could be swallowed to promote the growth of the Nascent Soul. It was completely different from the fire spiritual rock. The fire spiritual rock contained fire spiritual energy, while the rest was still a rock. On the other hand, the fire elemental crystal was a pure accumulation of energy. It was formed by the compression of the fire elemental liquid under certain conditions.
Seeing the fire elemental crystals, Qin Di knew that this matter was a little big!
This elephant tomb was most likely not formed naturally, but meticulously constructed by someone. Otherwise, under natural conditions, it would be very difficult for the fire elemental liquid to form fire elemental crystals. It would only form after being compressed underground for millions of years.
He was alert and carefully picked up the fist-sized fire elemental crystals. In total, he collected more than a thousand pieces. Just as he was about to put away the last fire elemental crystal, he suddenly saw a corner of a greyish black stone under the fire elemental crystal. There were some golden granules on the greyish black stone.
