198: A rare blue-quality Enchanted Flame! A Demon's Servant!

Su Lie stretched out his hand forward. He noticed that whether it was his movements or the items he held, they were all enveloped by a thin flame barrier condensed by the Fire Element Technique.

Moreover, the flame barrier could automatically expand based on Su Lie's actions, ensuring he remained in an absolutely safe environment at all times.

"Even breathing is so smooth and fresh, without the slightest obstruction or unpleasant odor! This Fire Element Technique is truly excellent!"

Su Lie muttered softly.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A large number of meteors were still falling from the distant sky.

After he walked more than ten meters out of the Shelter.

Exploration Hints flashed into his view one after another.

[Exploration Hint: There is a recently fallen meteor in an area 10 kilometers away from you. The layer of flames surrounding the meteor is a necessary resource for professions such as artifact crafting and alchemy!]

[Exploration Hint: Not only can precious mineral resources be gathered from the meteor, but there is also a chance to obtain blueprint Treasure Chests and unique ecological resources.]

[Exploration Hint: The closer you get to the meteor area, the more likely Abyssal Demons will appear. Please proceed with caution!]

While looking at the hints, Su Lie took out the children's scooter.

The scooter was a god-level item, possessing the permanent effect of being indestructible, and it was also wrapped in the power of Su Lie's Fire Element Technique, so it was not incinerated by the lava when taken out.

However.

Riding the scooter in the lava was not smooth.

The flowing lava severely hampered the scooter's speed.

Not only was there resistance in the lava, but there were also some uneven depressions.

Su Lie took a full minute to reach the meteor area, which should have only taken 10 seconds.

The meteor in front of him was rectangular.

The side of the meteor facing Su Lie was 1 kilometer long and about 100 meters high.

A pink flame current wrapped around the meteor's body.

The current was slowly dissipating as time went on.

However.

The temperature near the meteor was much higher than in other areas.

Su Lie immediately took out the Eye of Identification and aimed it at the meteor.

[Abyssal Bewitching Meteor: 1 kilometer wide, 3 kilometers long, 100 meters high, with a small area of Abyssal environment on top. Flame Streamer Temperature: 10,000 degrees Celsius, Streamer Quality: Blue Rare. Basic specialty: charm stone, a blue quality demonic stone; 1 unit can replace 5,000 units of ordinary Stone. Basic specialty: charm fire, a blue quality demonic flame; it can be used to refine weapons, items, and elixirs that possess charm power, and can also be used as the core power for Skills such as Spell Skills and Martial Arts Techniques.]

"I didn't expect the first meteor I encountered to possess blue quality resources. What luck! Especially this charm fire, it's a rare and precious type of flame!"

As Su Lie spoke, he put away the Eye of Identification and took out the flame collector.

Buzz!

The moment he aimed the flame collector at the meteor, the streamers of light on the meteor surged toward the flame collector all at once.

On the crystal structure of the collector, Su Lie saw individual flame heads emitting blue light.

Each flame head represented how much flame the collector had gathered.

The color of the flame represented its quality.

Su Lie was incredibly excited by what he saw.

In just 2 minutes.

He had already collected 120 units of charm fire.

At this moment.

an Exploration Hint flashed into Su Lie's view.

[Exploration Hint: Your gathering activity has alarmed the surrounding Abyssal Demons. Please be careful!]

Bang!

Just then, a huge Fireball Spell landed on the meteorite about 100 meters away from Su Lie.

The streamer wrapping the meteorite flickered slightly, and before the fireball could explode, its power was completely absorbed.

Upon seeing this, Su Lie couldn't help but raise his Spirit, activating Talents such as God-Grade Olfaction and God-level Reaction.

This Fireball Spell was a warning fired by the Black Tortoise Army.

This indicated that danger was approaching in the lava 100 meters behind him.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Soon, the flame collector emitted a crisp sound.

This caused Su Lie's heart to stir, and he immediately stopped collecting the demonic flame and turned to look behind him.

Splash!

From the lava about 80 meters behind him, a monster slowly emerged, standing 1 meter tall, with fire-red skin all over its body and sharp goat horns on its head.

The monster resembled a human shape but had a pair of ox legs.

Fins also grew on the backs of its arms and legs.

The monster's eyes were dark black, it had a bat nose, and a sharp, large mouth that stretched back to its ears.

There was a flame crystal embedded in the monster's chest.

After appearing, the monster did not immediately attack Su Lie but observed him carefully, while two balls of flame slowly condensed in its hands.

Su Lie saw the monster's information through his passive Skill, Monster Prompt.

[Servant of the Demon: Level 25, Elite-grade Abyssal Monster, Health: 100,000 points; Spirit: 500,000 points;]

"An Elite-grade monster?"

Su Lie's eyes lit up upon seeing this, and he didn't wait for the monster to cast its Fireball Spell.

Su Lie directly took out the god-level hk416 automatic rifle and unleashed a burst of fire at the Servant of the Demon.

The intense gunfire sounded and quickly stopped.

The Servant of the Demon stiffened in surprise and fell straight into the lava.

Its corpse rapidly dissolved into flowing lava.

It only left behind a level 2 monster crystal and the flame crystal from the Servant of the Demon's chest, floating above the sea of lava.

The god-tier basic resource treasure chest dropped from killing the Servant of the Demon sank into the sea of lava, with only the lid of the chest visible.

Su Lie quickly walked over. He first collected the monster crystal and the basic resource treasure chest, and then picked up the flame crystal.

The crystal was about the size of a palm, 16-sided, entirely orange-red, and wrapped in a ball of flame.

Under the Identification of Su Lie's Eye of Identification.

The crystal's information panel appeared in Su Lie's view.

[demonic flame crystal: Green Elite Quality; Exclusive material dropped by the Servant of the Demon, usable for crafting items such as staves, weapons, and armor, and can also serve as food for raising demons. Trait: Demonic Flame: Consumes 10 Spirit points to condense two Demonic Flame Orbs within 10 seconds, dealing 5,000 Health damage and 1,000 Spirit damage to the enemy, and causes the enemy to be ignited by the demonic flame, continuously taking 100 Spirit damage per second for 60 seconds. Note: The demonic flame crystal is the source of the Servant of the Demon's power and its Skills.]

"Hmm? It seems the special effect of the demonic flame crystal is the Servant of the Demon's Skill, right? If calculated this way, the Servant of the Demon only has a maximum of 5 Skills!"

After reading it, Su Lie immediately stored the demonic flame crystal in his ruyi pouch; the purpose of this item was still uncertain.

Following this.

He returned to the Abyssal Bewitching Meteor and once again took out the flame collector to start gathering flames.

Just like that.

Time passed bit by bit.

About 1 hour and 30 minutes later.

Su Lie finally completed the collection of 73% of the entire meteor's flames.

This time.

He collected a total of 3,420 units of blue rare quality charm fire.

In the process, he killed 7 Servants of the Demon, gaining 7 level 2 monster crystals, 7 god-tier basic resource treasure chests, and 7 demonic flame crystals.

"Next, I'll explore the top of the meteor first, and if there are no other resources, I'll focus entirely on mining!"

After clarifying his next step, Su Lie climbed onto the meteor.

Standing on the surface of the 50-meter-high meteor.

Su Lie saw several lens-like fragments shimmering with light points about 100 meters away in the distance.

Further beyond the fragments was a patch of pink grassland.

There was a clear spring in the center of the grassland.

The spring water flowed towards the low-lying areas of the meteor's surface and then spilled into the sea of lava from the direction opposite Su Lie.

This generated a large amount of steam.

"It doesn't look like there are many resources, but if I'm not mistaken about those fragments over there, they should be space fragments, right?"

Su Lie excitedly walked forward.

Just as he walked 50 meters.

Buzz!

A sharp whistling sound suddenly came from beneath his feet.

Su Lie instinctively leaped into the air. He vigilantly looked at the area he had just walked through, only to see two invisible black lines slowly slicing across the spot where he had just stood.

These black lines were not lines.

Rather, they were lines capable of causing spatial distortion.

"What is that?"

Su Lie's Spirit was shocked. This automatically attacking power made him vigilantly look up at his surroundings: "Is there other life here?"
