A snow-white ferret was running wildly in the forest with a few demons following closely behind it.
Even though the demons were all at least at the fifth level and were much stronger than the ferret, they did not dare to harm it. Hence, they were unable to catch it even after chasing it for a long time.
"Damn it! Do you believe that I won't cripple you with a single palm strike if you continue to run!" One of the demons roared.
At this moment, the ferret suddenly burrowed into the ground and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
After a thorough search, the expressions on the Demon Race experts' faces turned extremely ugly. That was because the ferret seemed to have disappeared and was not underground at all.
"What's going on? Where did the ferret go? "
"If we can't find it, we'll be in trouble!"
"The First Prince will definitely put all the blame on us!"
After the few Demon Race members worriedly said these words, they suddenly heard footsteps behind them. Soon, two Demon Race members appeared in front of them.
One of them looked rather young and had an extremely handsome face.
The other was an extremely refined middle-aged man.
Their expressions changed simultaneously when they saw the two of them, and then they bowed in unison to the young man from the demon race. "Your Royal Highness!"
"Why? I heard that you found the ferret. Where is it now?" The First Prince could not help but ask when he saw the change in their expressions.
"Your Highness, we actually found the ferret. However, after it ran here, it burrowed into the ground and disappeared," one of the demons said miserably.
"How could you guys lose it? You must know that it is the key to finding the spiritual fire! "Hearing the demons' words, the First Prince immediately became angry.
He had painstakingly spent so much time searching for the Gold Devouring Snow Ferret in this snowy mountain range. Who would have thought that the demons would lose it at such a crucial moment?
At this moment, the refined middle-aged man beside the First Prince smiled and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to be angry. This Gold Devouring Snow Ferret does not have any tunneling techniques. There is a high chance that it disappeared because there is a secret realm here. Since there is a secret realm here, it means that it is very likely the hiding place of the spiritual fire."
"Didn't you say that the spiritual fire isn't here, but in the snowy mountain to the north?" The First Prince asked with some doubt.
"That's just Elder Bu La's guess. If Elder Bu La were here right now, I'm afraid he would say the same thing as me," the middle-aged demon said with a smile.
"En, then let's wait for Elder Bula to come." The First Prince nodded and smiled. "If it's really here, then we don't have to waste our time searching."
After waiting for a while, an old man finally arrived at their location.
"Elder Bu La, this is where the Gold Devouring Snow Ferret disappeared. Elder Yi 'er said that there might be a Secret Realm here, and it might even be the location of the Spiritual Fire. Come and take a look," the Crown Prince immediately said when he saw the elder.
Hearing the First Prince's words, the old man's eyes immediately lit up. He nodded and said, "Good!"
He was a powerful Rune Master, so this kind of exploration was naturally done by him.
The elder immediately set up a small Runic Magic Array at the scene.
Once it was activated, the small Runic Magic Array immediately began to vibrate.
Seeing this, a smile immediately appeared on the elder's face. "Crown Prince, I've detected the existence of a runic array below. Furthermore, the energy within it doesn't seem to be weak. It seems that there should be a rather large secret realm here. Since there's such a secret realm in this snowy mountain, it's very likely that it has something to do with the Spiritual Fire. There's an eighty to ninety percent chance that the Spiritual Fire is in the secret realm.
"Hahaha, that's great." The First Prince couldn't help but laugh wildly.
After spending so much time and effort, there was finally a reward. How could he not be excited?
"I really didn't expect the Gold Devouring Snow Ferret to run back to its home in the end." At this moment, the other demons sighed.
The Gold Devouring Snow Ferret was a type of ferret that devoured metallic substances. This type of ferret was extremely rare, and these demons only discovered it after coming to this snowy mountain.
They came here to look for the Golden Flames, and since the Gold Devouring Snow Ferret lived by devouring metal, it must have settled down near the Golden Flames. Because of this, after discovering the Gold Devouring Snow Ferret, they immediately wanted to capture it and bring it to the Golden Flames.
Who would have thought that although the Gold Devouring Snow Ferret wasn't strong, its ability to escape was extraordinary. They chased it for a long time, but they still couldn't catch it. Sometimes, they even almost lost it.
But fortunately, it eventually ran back to its home.
"Congratulations to our Dark Valley. As long as the Sixth Prince obtains the Spiritual Fire, his strength will increase by leaps and bounds. At that time, winning the competition and capturing Princess Lan Xi will be a piece of cake."
"At that time, the Walan Basin will be in our Dark Valley's pocket."
"This is also thanks to everyone's efforts. I will inform my father about this, and when the time comes, you will all be rewarded." The First Prince smiled.
After a pause, he cursed, "If your Sixth Prince was more talented, he wouldn't need to look for the Spiritual Fire, and he could directly take first place. He has the bloodline of the royal family!"
Hearing his words, the other demons wisely chose not to reply.
"Alright, Elder Bula, how can we enter this hidden Secret Territory and obtain the Spiritual Fire?" Then, the First Prince looked at Elder Bula and asked.
Elder Bula said, "This old man doesn't have the ability to break the Runic Magic Array of this Secret Territory …"
"Hmm?" Hearing his words, the First Prince could not help but frown.
Elder Bula hurriedly said, "However, First Prince, you don't have to worry. The Secret Territory below seems to open every once in a while, and the entrance is right under our feet. When the time comes, we just have to stay here."
"Oh, when will it open?" The First Prince's face immediately revealed a joyful expression.
"Probably in seven or eight days. During these days, I will stay here and carefully observe the Runic Magic Array to determine the opening time," Elder Bula said.
"Alright." The First Prince nodded.
Then, he looked at the other elder and said, "Elder Ill, how's the situation outside the snowy mountains recently?"
"First Prince, don't worry. Apart from us, no other major forces have appeared in this snowy mountains, and the other demons that entered this area have long been killed or chased out by us. Therefore, within these seven or eight days, there is absolutely no one that can threaten us." Elder Ill smiled.
"That's good." The First Prince nodded, and then warned, "However, you must not be careless. You must carefully observe the situation outside the snowy mountains, in case someone discovers that the Spiritual Fire is here."
"Yes!" The surrounding demons immediately shouted in unison.
