As a man with extremely good luck, how could Chen return empty-handed from a treasure vault?
Even though Fiery King and Zhurong had used up all the resources in the vault, it looked like there was nothing left.
However, as the founder of the Explosive Flames Heaven Sect, the Fiery King hoped that the sect could continue to flourish. Therefore, he hid an important item that only the successor who was recognized by the Fiery King would be able to obtain.
Obviously, Chen Xiaobei was that person!
"Buzz …"
Following the guidance of the Explosive Flame Token, Chen Xiaobei arrived at an inconspicuous corner of the treasure vault.
Crack! Crack! Crack …
The sound of moving stones could be heard coming from the wall, and a secret compartment had actually been opened.
There was an intricate Concealment Formation that could block Primordial Spirit's field of vision. Ordinary people would not be able to sense what was hidden in the secret compartment.
Even though Zhurong was not an ordinary person, when he entered the treasure vault, all the high-tier magical items, Spiritual Stones, resources, and capital were taken away by Fiery King.
That was why Zhurong was not interested in this treasure vault from the beginning. Naturally, he would not investigate every corner of it. Otherwise, with Zhurong's ability, he would have found this secret compartment.
Of course, since Zhurong did not find it, the treasure hidden in this secret compartment naturally became Chen Xiaobei's.
Whoosh … Whoosh …
It was a fire seed the size of a red date, flickering in the secret compartment, as if it could be extinguished at any time.
"What is this?"
Chen Xiaobei frowned and wondered, "In Fiery King's last words, he did not mention this secret compartment, nor did he mention what this fire seed is …"
Of course, after observing it for a while, Chen Xiaobei suddenly thought of something.
Swoosh!
Chen Xiaobei took out a red jade ball from his Infinite Space Ring.
To the naked eye, this jade ball looked ordinary, even the quality of the jade was very ordinary. Most importantly, it did not have any Spiritual Attribute. Even in the jade market on earth, this jade ball could only be considered as a low-grade item.
That's right, this was the mysterious jade ball that Chen Xiaobei obtained from the Hollow Jade Temple's treasure vault.
According to what Dijiang said, this jade ball concealed a trace of extremely profound and pure fire attribute True Essence!
However, this trace of True Essence was too minuscule, and Dijiang couldn't give a definite answer. He didn't know what kind of Unusual Flame it was, nor could he determine its level.
The reason why Chen Xiaobei took out the red jade orb at this time was because both the red jade orb and the fire seed in the hidden compartment were fire elemental items.
Moreover, although the fire seed in the hidden compartment was weak and could even be extinguished at any time, the fire element aura it emitted was also extremely pure and unyielding!
Because of that, Chen speculated that something magical might happen if he put these two together.
"I was right!"
When Chen placed the red jade ball near the hidden compartment, something happened.
"Crack! Crack! Crack … "
Like a cracked egg, the surface of the crimson jade ball began to crumble bit by bit.
"Hiss …"
Then, a ray of light as thin as a strand of hair floated out, emitting a dazzling reddish-gold light that lit up the dark treasure vault.
At the same time, there was a terrifying explosion of heat. The air around it was distorted, and the stone walls and floor were slowly melting into magma.
"So scary! This temperature is a thousand times hotter than the magma outside the treasure vault … "
Luckily, Chen Xiaobei had the Fire Taming Pearl to protect him. Otherwise, he would have been burned to death by the intense heat at such a close distance.
Since Chen Xiaobei was not afraid of the heat, he could calm down and observe carefully.
"What the hell is this thing?! It's emitting such a pure fire attribute True Essence, but it's not fire in nature … It looks like some kind of creature's hair … "
The reddish-gold strand floated in the air, looking like a random strand of a woman's hair.
But if this was really a strand of hair, what kind of person could possess such a terrifying strand of hair?
"Gurgle … Gurgle …"
As Chen Xiaobei was thinking, the heat continued to spread. In a short while, half of the treasure vault had been melted into boiling magma.
It was just a strand of hair that contained very little Fire Attribute Ethereal Force, but it had already brought about such a terrifying result.
If there really was such a woman with a head of vibrant reddish-gold hair, how terrifying would she be?
She could probably be considered as one of the higher-ups in the entire Heavenly Realm. She could incinerate a planet with a wave of her hand, and engulf the entire world in a sea of fire.
"Whoosh …"
Just as Chen Xiaobei was thinking, the tinder in the secret compartment also emitted the reddish-gold light and floated towards the strand of hair.
"This tinder and hair seem to have the same origin … Their auras are very similar, and they're emitting a strange resonance … Where did they come from? Who was the original owner? "
Chen Xiaobei's mind was filled with more and more questions.
The hair came from the Hollow Jade Temple, and the tinder from the Explosive Inferno Sect. Clearly, neither of the two factions were the real owners of the hair and tinder.
It was through some kind of coincidence that the hair and tinder fell into the hands of the two factions.
"Damn, it's useless for me to think about it alone …"
Chen Xiaobei could not figure it out. "First, I need to find a way to get Spiritual Stones to turn Six Ear Macaque into Zhu Rong. Then, I might be able to answer my questions!"
"Phew! Hiss … "
However, at this moment, the fire seed was suddenly attracted by the gossamer and completely fused with it.
"Swoosh!"
What was even more unbelievable was that after merging with the tinder, the reddish-gold hair shot straight towards Chen Xiaobei's forehead.
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei was very close to the hair, and all his attention was focused on it. He was not prepared for it at all, and the hair pierced through his forehead.
"Swoosh!"
In the blink of an eye, the reddish-gold hair had drilled into Chen Xiaobei's flesh!
It was a powerful existence with Fire Attribute Ethereal Force and terrifyingly high temperature. The consequences of drilling into Chen Xiaobei's flesh were unimaginable.
"Argh …"
Chen Xiaobei let out a cry of agony. His expression changed, his pupils contracted, and his body became stiff. It was as if he had been sealed. He could not even move a finger.
"Gurgle … Gurgle …"
Soon, the stiff Chen Xiaobei slowly sank into the depths of the lava.
His life was hanging in the balance!
