Chapter 916 - 294: The Presence Beneath the Magma Lake (Part 5)

She was originally a wisp of Separation Fire Flame and, after being brought by Shen Wen’an to the Magma Lake in Flame Lake City, she gradually developed consciousness and successfully transformed.

For her, Flame Lake City was the land that nurtured and raised her.

All these years, she had lived in Flame Lake City, and now, suddenly having to leave, there was indeed some reluctance in her heart.

"There are still a lot of good things under Flame Lake City. Since the city is no longer wanted, should we take those things out?"

The Fire Phoenix turned her head to look at Shen Wen’an.

Shen Wen’an was curious, "What good things are there?"

After a slight contemplation, the Fire Phoenix replied, "There’s Earth Fire Flame Essence and quite a bit of Fire Attribute Spirit Ore..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Wen’an frowned and asked, "How long would the mining take?"

The time left to the Shen Family was already running short.

Mining Spirit Ore Veins generally takes a long time; if it requires too much time, it’s not worth the risk for a few materials.

Upon hearing this, the Fire Phoenix suddenly smiled slyly and said, "If the lord lets the Little Demon act recklessly, it shouldn’t take too long."

Meeting her gaze, Shen Wen’an vaguely guessed that this little girl had come up with some strange idea.

"Forget it. After everyone in the city leaves, you can do whatever you want."

After some thought, he didn’t try to stop her.

Anyway, the entire Flame Lake City was already not intended to be kept anymore. If she wanted to make a mess, let her go ahead.

Upon hearing this, the little girl’s face lit up with joy.

"Thank you, lord!"

By deep night, the Void Treasure Ship, having returned once, came back to Flame Lake City again, and after taking away the remaining people of the Western Wilderness Barbarian Race, only Shen Wen’an, Wei Qiuling, and the Fire Phoenix were left in Flame Lake City.

"Lord, can we start now?"

Confirming that the Void Treasure Ship had moved away, the Fire Phoenix enthusiastically approached Shen Wen’an to inquire.

"What is she going to do?"

Wei Qiuling asked curiously.

Shen Wen’an sneered, "Beautifully named as mining, but in truth, her violent nature needs a release..."

"Go ahead, but don’t make too much commotion. If you attract powerful cultivators, it will become trouble."

The little girl grinned, then directly transformed into a fire light and flew to the sky above Flame Lake City.

Whoosh—

The enormous wings suddenly spread wide, and the Fire Phoenix, without any constraints, could finally unleash her entire form without restraint, let loose!

A body several hundred feet long, wingspan nearly two thousand feet, blazing all over with scarlet flames, the Fire Phoenix displayed her strongest form, and after a clear cry, her inner power blasted madly downwards toward Flame Lake City!

In an instant, the entire city was engulfed in a Sea of Fire.

Towering flames melted city walls and buildings, mountains and earth melted into magma flowing freely.

The Fire Phoenix seemed to have the ability to communicate with ordinary magma.

As her power continued to exhibit, the ground beneath Flame Lake City began to shake violently. Moments later, a large amount of ordinary magma surged forth from the level ground!

In just over ten breaths, Flame Lake City, which the Shen Family spent years constructing, was completely submerged in magma.

Seeing this, Wei Qiuling couldn’t help but remark, "Destruction is always easier than construction."

"Such a vast city, wiped out in just over ten breaths, leaving no trace of existence."

Shen Wen’an nodded, looked at the still rowdy Fire Phoenix, and said in a deep voice, "That’s enough, what about those things you mentioned?"

Upon hearing his words, the Fire Phoenix in the void seemed unwilling to cease, reluctantly converging some of her violent aura, her eyes releasing sharp glints, scanning the magma below.

Moments later, her keen claws plunged into the boiling magma, extracting the Spirit Ore hidden beneath.

"Lord, this is Earth Fire Flame Essence, it’s precious."

The Fire Phoenix kept digging out the Spirit Ore until finally her sharp claws extracted several crystal ore veins of varying lengths from underground.

One had to admit, her mining method was indeed quite crude.

Normal mining is done bit by bit, while she directly and crudely extracted the most essential parts of the ore vein.

Without any consideration for wastage.

After causing a ruckus for quite a while, seemingly having vented enough, the Fire Phoenix transformed into the form of a little girl and landed in front of the two.

"That was so satisfying!"

The little girl excitedly rubbed her hands together, looking at her masterpiece in the distance, she expressed contentment.

Seeing this, Shen Wen’an sighed slightly and shook his head.

"Senior sister, put these Spirit Ores and Earth Fire Flame Essence away, I will go collect the Golden Crow Head into the Storage Bag; we must leave here quickly."

The Fire Phoenix had caused too much havoc earlier, and now the Yangnao Land was on the verge of collapse. Who knows how many external cultivators have sneaked in.

Don’t mention Nascent Soul, even just one or two Purple Mansion cultivators, he wasn’t entirely confident he could escape their grasp.

Wei Qiuling nodded, waved her hand, and put the piles of Spirit Ore and some Earth Fire Flame Essence into the Storage Bag.

Meanwhile, Shen Wen’an collected the large Golden Crow Head.

"Luckily, my Storage Bag is of high quality, with enough space."

"Otherwise, it wouldn’t necessarily fit..."

After an inner sigh, Shen Wen’an immediately flashed to the two’s side, ensured nothing was overlooked, and the trio transformed into streams of light, flying towards Yunshui City.

Their figures disappeared in less than a quarter of an hour, and suddenly a Black Light rapidly flew over from a distance.

The Black Light paused over the blazing Flame Lake City and revealed its form.
