After putting away the soul crystals and other items, Ye Li looked around and said, "I wonder if this black-armored stone fire dragon has a nest nearby. If so, we can go explore."
Tunri said: "When it attacked you just now, I seemed to see a big hole on the mountain wall behind you. Maybe it is the nest of the Black Armor Stone Fire Dragon."
When Ye Li just climbed to the top of the stone pillar, Tunri accidentally saw the black-armored stone fire dragon attacking from behind. At that time, there was a huge cave in the mountain wall not far behind the black-armored stone fire dragon that fell from the sky.
After hearing Tunri's words, Ye Li hurriedly looked towards the place where the black-armored stone fire dragon had flown from before, but found that his vision was blocked by the mountain wall next to him and he could not see any higher.
After thinking about it, Ye Li activated the Wind Ring and immediately turned into a gust of breeze, rushing towards the mountain wall.
With his hands like iron hooks, Ye Li leaped up from the cliff wall and pulled with both hands. In just a moment, he had climbed up the cliff wall next to him.
After coming out of the low-lying area of the stone forest below, Ye Li saw a higher cliff standing not far away.
There is a huge cave above this cliff. It seems that the black-armored stone fire dragon just now flew out from there.
After looking at the surrounding environment and making sure that there were no more monsters lying in ambush nearby, Ye Li finally started to run quickly to the foot of the cliff.
With Ye Li's current physical strength, climbing this cliff is as easy as walking on flat ground. With the help of the Feng Qing Huan, he becomes as light as a swallow.
He used his hands to exert force alternately, allowing him to leap freely on the cliff like a wild ape.
After a dozen breaths, Ye Li climbed to the entrance of the cave on the cliff.
Looking carefully into the cave, Ye Li did not find any other monsters inside. However, the fishy smell coming from the cave was the same as the smell from the Black-Armored Stone Fire Dragon just now. It seemed that this was indeed the nest of the Black-Armored Stone Fire Dragon.
With a flip, Ye Li jumped into the cave, took out a rune lamp from his Qiankun bag, and walked towards the depths of the cave.
The cave is very spacious. After all, the Black-Armored Stone Fire Dragon is so huge that ordinary caves cannot accommodate it.
However, the cave was not deep, and Ye Li quickly reached the end of the cave.
Deep underground in the cave, there was a shallow circle of red ore, which emitted a faint red light under the illumination of the rune lamp.
When Ye Li saw it, he exclaimed, "This is Liuyun Fire Mine, the ore used to refine Liuyun Fire Steel!"
Ye Li shouted as he rushed to the ore in two steps and started digging in the ground with his hands.
After digging away the loose soil, more Liuyun Fire Minerals were revealed underground.
"The veins of the Liuyun Fire Mine can only exist deep underground, and this place is not underground, so how can there be so many Liuyun Fire Mine
No, these are not the Flowing Cloud Fire Ore in the mine. They must have been brought by the Black Armored Stone Fire Dragon from somewhere else."
Feeling the warmth emanating from the Flowing Cloud Fire Mine, Ye Li immediately understood the purpose of the Black Armor Stone Fire Dragon bringing the Flowing Cloud Fire Mine here and burying it.
With the existence of this large amount of Liuyun Fire Mine, the Black Armor Stone Fire Dragon's cave became much warmer and more suitable for it to live in.
Just when all his attention was focused on the Liuyun Fire Mine, the voice of Tunri sounded in Ye Li's mind.
"Ye Li, look under the stone wall on the right, there seems to be something else there."
Tunri called Ye Li over.
Following the guidance of the Sun-Swallowing Voice, Ye Li temporarily put down the Flowing Cloud Fire Mine in his hand, then turned his head and looked under the stone wall opposite.
There was a pile of fist-sized fruits placed under the stone wall not far away. When Ye Li shone the rune lamp over them, the fruits began to shine with a hazy ochre light.
"These are..."
Ye Li seemed a little uncertain and spoke hesitantly.
However, Tunri had already recognized these fruits and said, “These are underground spiritual objects called Stone Hearts. After the monster beasts consume them, they can quickly increase their physical strength.
However, it seems that it is not suitable for human consumption. Most people cannot withstand the powerful spiritual energy in the fruit...
Wait a minute, you seem to be able to take things that are not suitable for ordinary people. Your natal talisman can help you absorb and tame all kinds of violent medicinal power!"
As Tunri was speaking, he suddenly remembered the special effect of Ye Li's natal talisman and exclaimed in surprise.
When Ye Li heard what Tunri said, his heart moved and he said, “Heart of Stone, I have heard of this kind of thing.
It is said that some people use them to make elixirs, and can obtain elixirs that enhance physical strength.
However, the efficacy of the elixir, after being combined with various medicinal ingredients, does not seem to be as good as the effect of the Stone Heart itself.
However, the power within the Heart of Stone is so violent that only the bodies of monsters can withstand it. If humans take it, they will either be seriously injured or explode to death.
It seems that we have come to the right place this time. Not only did we find so many Flowing Cloud Fire Minerals, but we also discovered so many Stone Heart Fruits.
I will use the fire collecting box to purify all of these Flowing Cloud Fire Ores and smelt them into Flowing Cloud Fire Steel.
Liuyun Fire Steel is a lower-grade heavenly refining material, just right for the Liuyanyan Suanlu.
I see that the amount of Liuyun Fire Ore here is enough to smelt about twenty pieces of Liuyun Fire Steel. If Liuyanyan Furnace swallows it all, plus its previous accumulation, it is very likely to be directly promoted to the upper grade of Earth Grade. "
Upon hearing this, Tunri's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Since you can smelt these ores into more than 20 pieces of heaven-grade materials, then the Liuyanyan Furnace may indeed be directly upgraded to the upper level of the earth-grade."
Ye Li nodded and said, “Well, there’s also the Heart of Stone over there.
If I take all of it, the level of my physical strength should be able to be raised to the early stage of the descent period.
Hehe, the stronger your physical strength is, the less pressure there will be on your body after I merge with your incarnation.
After my physical strength grows to the early stage of necromancy, I will use the secret technique of fire-casting to reduce the burden of your fire power on my body. Maybe I can merge with your incarnation twice in one battle.
If I can really fuse twice, it will be a huge improvement in my strength."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Tun Ri said: "Not only that, if your physical strength reaches a certain level, after you merge with me, when you use your human boxing skills, you can use my power combined with the fire spirit to launch boxing.
By then, the power of your attack will be much stronger than when you directly use my power to attack in ordinary ways.
When you are in close combat, the power of your fist attack will even exceed that of ordinary spells, and the speed of launching it will be fast enough. At that time, you will be almost like a monster that can release spells, and your combat power will be absolutely amazing. "
