After the baptism of the Fire Calamity, the density of demon creatures in the North Burning Valley had greatly decreased. Even if the Elemental Detectors were buried in the ground for an hour or two, it was unlikely that any demon creatures would show up.
Perhaps it was because the Fire Calamity had yet to subside, but the demon creatures were still hiding in their nests in fear, not daring to come out.
The longer the Elemental Detectors were buried in the ground, the longer the distance they could detect, greatly shortening the time they had to search for the Soul Seed. Four Elemental Detectors were placed in four different directions. The group soon found the coordinates of the Soul Seed. Following the coordinates, the ground under their feet grew hotter, a sign that the Soul Seed had appeared.
"It's here. Zhang Xiaohou, Chen Yi, use your Earth Element to find the Soul Seed buried nearby as soon as possible," Mo Fan said to the two excitedly.
Zhang Xiaohou was a naive girl. She would do whatever Mofan told her to do. If she had a shovel, Zhang Xiaohou would have used it to dig the ground.
Chen Ying was relatively calm. Perhaps she was well aware that the Soul Seed was no longer considered rare in the Burning Valley after the Fire Calamity.
Zhang Xiaohou was ready to go. He had the urge to dig into the ground after deciding on the location. Chen Ying patted him on the shoulder, signaling the guy whose IQ had dropped tremendously after seeing the money, to take a look ahead.
The path ahead was covered by a cloud of sand, thus the visibility was extremely low. Now that the sand had settled down, they could see a huge crater that looked like it had been hit by a meteorite.
The crater was around a kilometer in diameter, like a small basin. It was shockingly huge!
The inside of the crater was extremely dry. The ground around it was cracked open, with countless flames bursting out from the cracks. The flames were yellow in color, and from afar, they looked like half-ripe wheat swaying in the wind!
There must be a Soul Seed nearby, as only a Soul Seed could change the color of the flames!
Zhang Xiaohou looked forward and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He was surprised to find that in the center of the crater where the flames were swaying, there was a completely yellow fire seed floating at a height of about two meters.
Although Zhang Xiaohou had not come across many Soul Seeds, he had heard from others in the military how difficult it was to find a Soul Seed. He had never heard of a Soul Seed that was placed right in front of him.
"This … this, isn't it a little too easy to find?" Zhang Xiaohou himself couldn't believe it.
Mo Fan stood at the edge of the enormous pit with a diameter of a kilometer. It was obvious that the Fire Soul Seed had just been born not long ago. The formidable energy of the Fire Calamity was concentrated in the area. The ground was already sinking for a kilometer due to the overwhelming pressure.
At the very center, the Flame Essence was condensed all over the place. This was the first time he had seen a light yellow flame, and he didn't know what special effects it had.
Normally, Soul Seeds would have certain effects. The Rose Flame that Mofan said he possessed could increase the power of his Fire Magic by 2%. Five times.
Different Soul Seeds had different effects. Some of them were more outstanding, and could be sold for a higher price. For example, the Flowing Mud Seed that Zhang Xiaohou had found was one of the best among the Earth Element Soul Seeds. If he were to sell it, it would be worth close to thirty million.
A Soul Seed implied that it was sentient. The light yellow flame seemed to be quite sentient, too. Its price would not be low, either.
"The whole place is filled with underground flames that can burn a person to ashes. Normal people would be burned to death if they were to go to the center," Xinxia said.
Zhao Manting and Zhang Xiaohou both glanced at Mo Fan, who was already on the verge of making his move. He was the only one with the Fire Element, thus he was immune to a certain degree of damage from the Fire Element.
Mofan did not wait for the others to discuss the matter. He jumped into the giant crater filled with light yellow flames. A Soul Seed that was exposed to the air was too unpredictable. Most shockingly, the Soul Seed was not protected by any creature.
Creatures like Demon Beasts were unable to directly refine Spirit Seeds for their own use like humans. They needed to absorb the energy emitted by the Spirit Seeds. Only after their bodies had completely familiarized themselves with the Spirit Seeds could they refine the Spirit Seeds and use them as their own power.
It was a very long process. As such, if a demon creature discovered a Soul Seed first, it would turn into the guardian of the Soul Seed.
Mofan followed the path to the center of the crater. He was only a few dozen meters away from the light yellow Soul Seed. He came to a stop and looked around on purpose.
Mother Nature had placed such a precious Soul Seed in front of him so passionately. Mofan felt like a goddess he had coveted for a long time had taken off her clothes and was playing with her hair. It was difficult for him to turn down her kindness, but he was still a little uneasy. He was worried that he would wake up with a wet dream if he were to pounce on the Soul Seed.
As such, even though Mofan was about to pounce on the Soul Seed like a hungry wolf, he still acted pretentiously.
That being said, it did seem like there was nothing here apart from the stronger flames in the surroundings. The Rose Flame Protection was enough to make him immune to the flames.
Finally, he continued forward. Waves of heat swept past him and hit Mofan's face. Mofan immediately sensed the chastity of the light yellow Soul Seed.
The problem was, the chastity was meaningless. It could not stop Mofan's evil claws.
…
Mo Fan carefully placed the Soul Seed into the container. Apart from feeling a little uncomfortable from the yellow flames around him, Mo Fan did not feel any hindrance during the process.
He was still imagining if a monster with three heads and six arms would come out of the ground and chase after him as soon as he plucked the Soul Seed. As a matter of fact, nothing happened. When he returned to the team, the yellow flames had already dissipated since the Soul Seed was sealed inside the container.
"I'm starting to believe that the Calamity Fire is really holding a feast here …" Zhao Manyan blurted out excitedly when he saw Mofan retrieving the Soul Seed without any hindrance.
It was obvious that the Soul Seed was only a small appetizer to the feast if he was able to obtain such a great Soul Seed so easily.
Only the heavens knew what kind of shocking treasure would emerge from the depths of this place!!
