Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 742: Chapter 669: Ascend to the Peak 68 (4,000 characters)

The reason why this thing is so expensive is because it is difficult to produce, and even harder to obtain. Moreover, the Fire Spirit Essence can transform into flying snakes and flee in all directions, making it even harder to find.

If it weren’t for the Flame Fruit ripening now, this place would be exactly as Tan Shuangshuang saw it before—nothing but magma, and naturally, the red flying snakes transformed from the Fire Spirit Essence wouldn’t be visible either.

The aura of the Fire Spirit Essence is almost imperceptible to humans. Previously, Tan Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu had both fallen onto the stone platform and checked the growth of the Flame Fruit. Under such circumstances, neither Tan Shuangshuang nor Tan Feiyu sensed even the slightest hint of the Fire Spirit Essence’s aura, indicating the secrecy of the Fire Spirit Essence’s formation.

As for the use of the Fire Spirit Essence, it is almost useless to humans, but for Alchemists and Artifact Refiners, it is simply a priceless treasure. They would agree to any price if it meant obtaining it.

The use of the Fire Spirit Essence is quite wondrous. It is the best supplement for various Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires. If a low-grade Spiritual Fire burns and absorbs the Fire Spirit Essence, it will evolve into a high-quality Spiritual Fire. Even an ordinary Mortal Fire that continuously burns the Fire Spirit Essence can evolve into a low-grade Spiritual Fire.

Most importantly, whether it’s Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire or a Spiritual Fire nurtured with Mortal Fire, as long as it is fed Fire Spirit Essence, it will become especially close to the person feeding it. This is because the Fire Spirit Essence is immensely beneficial to fire, so long as you are willing to feed it, the favorability will soar.

This means that with enough Fire Spirit Essence, one can cultivate high-level Spiritual Fires themselves, without the life-risking task of capturing and seeking Spiritual Fires for use. Even for those who are not Alchemists or Artifact Refiners but seek to capture Spiritual Fires as a means of attack, the Fire Spirit Essence is a rare treasure.

Tan Shuangshuang did not expect such a pleasant surprise from this mission. Looking below at the magma with the multitude of red flying snakes tangled in a dark mass, she no longer felt the previous headache but was filled with joy.

Previously, she found these numerous red flying snakes annoying and seemingly endless to kill. Now she thought it would be better if there were even more of these red flying snakes. Such a large amount of Fire Spirit Essence was as valuable as a small Spirit Stone mine!

Tan Feiyu looked puzzled at his typically composed sister’s sudden delighted smile. He was confused but also strangely excited. Something that could move his sister must undoubtedly be a good thing.

Sure enough, after hearing Tan Shuangshuang explain about the Fire Spirit Essence, Tan Feiyu became excited too, his eyes almost glowing green as he stared at the magma. This was no longer the endless trouble he thought it was; it was all money, a big pile of Spirit Stones!

Greedy, Tan Feiyu immediately drew his sword. If not for Tan Shuangshuang’s timely grab, he would have stupidly gone down with the treasure sword, only to scald his hands on the now hot sword.

Knowing this thing is a treasure, Tan Shuangshuang, with the great treasure Thousand Silk Entanglement in hand, sat by the volcano mouth like fishing. She split the Thousand Silk Entanglement into a dozen doppelgangers, each time grabbing twelve red flying snakes transformed from the Fire Spirit Essence.

After pulling them up, Tan Feiyu rushed over to force the Fire Spirit Essence back to its original form and stored them in the Storage Necklace.

This Storage Necklace was embedded with a Mid-grade Storage Stone, which Tan Shuangshuang had taken from her own Storage Bracelet and given to Tan Feiyu, asking her second grandmaster Si Kaojing to make it the same as her Storage Bracelet.

In the following time, Tan Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu continued using the Thousand Silk Entanglement to capture Fire Spirit Essence by the volcano mouth. When their Spiritual Energy was exhausted, they sat and meditated to rest and continued after recovering. When tired, they set up a camping tent for shelter.

As for food, that was no worry. Tan Shuangshuang had little else but plenty to eat. Around her waist was a Storage Bag full of various delicious foods, like a work of art.

No one knew how much Fire Spirit Essence was below. Tan Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu sat by the volcano mouth, capturing for two whole months. The Storage Bag was filled with Fire Spirit Essence, but below the magma, the red flying snakes transformed from Fire Spirit Essence continued to surge without any sign of diminishing.

While Tan Shuangshuang felt happy, she was also a bit uneasy. This mission was to gather the Flame Fruit, and although the mission issuer did not specify a time, delaying too long might not be good either.
