"According to the information I have obtained, the Earth Core Fire Lotus is mainly concentrated in an area at the core of the Zhurong Basin, and a few branches are located in other places in the Zhurong Basin. All locations are recorded in this jade slip. Fellow Taoists can take a look at it first." Lord Fu paused for a moment and took out several jade slips, giving one to each person.
Shen Luo immersed his spiritual consciousness into it. In addition to the central area, there were more than a dozen other fire lotus locations marked on the jade slip, scattered throughout the Zhurong Basin.
"With so many scattered fire lotuses, does Brother Fu want us to split up into several groups to search for them?" Longya asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, fellow Taoists, I believe you also think this is safer, right?" Lord Fu said meaningfully.
The others looked at each other when they heard this, and remained silent. They naturally did not want to share a treasure like the Earth Core Fire Lotus with others, and they all wanted to act alone.
“Since you all have no objection, let’s decide it this way. The scattered Earth Core Fire Lotuses will be handed over to you, and Fellow Daoist Hua and I will go directly to the center of the basin.” Lord Fu said.
Longya, Gui Qiansui and others were about to nod, but when they heard the last sentence, their eyes flickered.
"Please don't get me wrong, it's not that Hua and Fellow Daoist Fu want to have the spoils all to ourselves. Although there are many Earth Core Fire Lotuses in the central area of the basin, a large number of Red Flame Beasts have also gathered there. They are extremely powerful. Not to mention one or two people, even if all of us go there we may not be able to handle them. Fellow Daoist Fu and I are going there to set up a large formation to restrain the Red Flame Beasts. After you finish your business, we will work together to activate the formation to deal with those Red Flame Beasts and divide the Earth Core Fire Lotuses in the central area equally." Hua Zhao, who had been silent all this time, began to explain. His voice was as gentle as water and extremely magnetic, which made people unable to help but believe it.
After hearing this, the others looked at each other and said nothing, obviously tacitly agreeing to this matter.
"In that case, let's split up." Seeing that no one had any objection, Lord Fu shot out a white crystal light from the cloth banner in his right hand, which wrapped around the young man beside him. The young man's figure flashed and disappeared out of thin air.
Shen Luo let out a light exclamation. In the white crystal light, he sensed the fluctuation of spatial force. The cloth banner in Fu Gong's hand turned out to be a treasure similar to the Xiaoyao Mirror.
"Space magic weapon!" Gui Qiansui also exclaimed in surprise.
"This Bagua Banner of mine only has a small space attached. It cannot be called a space magic weapon. Brother Gui, you are too kind." Lord Fu laughed and bowed slightly to everyone. Then he and Hua Zhao turned into a beam of white light and shot forward.
The others also dispersed and shot in different directions.
Shen Luo and the black bear demon also separated, and after reminding each other to be careful, Shen Luo set out alone, shooting towards the left front of the basin.
As soon as he entered the Zhurong Basin, Shen Luo suddenly felt a surge of heat. Even with his current physical strength, he felt his lips dry and his facial muscles ached slightly.
"What a terrible heat!" He muttered to himself, and a blue light flashed on his body, forming a water light curtain. The blue light enveloped his whole body, and the feeling of heat was instantly reduced.
However, the heat around him was extremely fierce, mixed with a trace of strange fire poison. It should be the Earthly Evil Fire Poison that Mr. Fu mentioned. He had to use all his strength to operate the light curtain to resist it.
Practicing Qi in this way consumes a lot of mana.
