Yun Sheng’s Magic Wand is inlaid with two Magic Soul Stones, whereas the opponent is merely a Great Magic Director.With her power, how could she break the prohibition outside the Earth Core Melt Cave and go deep into the cave? Moreover, judging by her appearance, she seemed to have been in the molten cave for several days. Earth Core Melt Cave, so this is the name of this place. Yun Sheng thought secretly, she couldn’t believe that her previous guess turned out to be true. Yuan Bu Po generously offered his clothes, which improved Yun Sheng’s impression of this lad. "I didn’t want to end up here either. A few days ago, I accidentally entered a cave and triggered a Magic Array inside. By the time I woke up, I was already inside the cave. I’ve been trapped there for several days, constantly searching for a way out. Today, when I heard voices, I finally found a way here," Yun Sheng spoke frankly, and seeing her composed demeanor, Yuan Bu Po did not harbor any more suspicions. Yuan Bu Po thought inwardly, her demeanor doesn’t seem like she is lying, but since she has been in the cave for several days, then the item he is searching for... Yuan Bu Po hurriedly asked: "Miss, did you encounter anything in the cave, or find a fiery red lotus flower?" "There is nothing in the depths of the cave. The lotus flower you mentioned, I have seen it. It’s not far ahead," Yun Sheng knew she couldn’t hide it, fortunately, she had already gathered all the Spiritual Medicines and lotus flowers a few days ago, leaving only one with a flower bud. "This is great, the ancient records are true, there really is a Karma Fire Lotus in the Earth Core Melt Cave," Yuan Bu Po, unable to wait any longer, immediately went forward in search of it. Sure enough, after walking a few steps, he found a standing Karma Fire Lotus in the lotus pond. However, in the short time since Yun Sheng had left, the previously unbloomed Karma Fire Lotus had already opened. The cluster of Karma Fire Lotus, like flames, shyly buds in the scorching molten lava, its interior seed pod a bright red. The pod is like a piece of ruby, sparkling and translucent. "Brother Bu Po, do you say this thing could help us find a Karma Fire Beast?" Xuan Meimei carefully observed the lotus flower. Aside from the color being somewhat different from ordinary lotus flowers, it seemed quite unremarkable. In the city of Emperor Hong, there are many exotic flowers and medicinal plants; just the lotus flowers alone come in dozens of varieties, including colorful ones like Colorful Lotus, making this Karma Fire Lotus quite ordinary in comparison. "What do you know, long hair but short of experience. The whole body of this Karma Fire Lotus is a treasure, its roots, stems, and leaves are all Holy-grade medicinal herbs, its root system, the Karma Fire Lotus, is an excellent medicine for purifying the Magic Soul. But the most precious part of it is its seeds," Yuan Bu Po knew quite thoroughly about the Karma Fire Lotus. Yuan Bu Po, as if with some reservations, did not continue speaking. Yun Sheng watched coldly from the side, already understanding that Yuan Bu Po must be waiting for the Karma Fire Lotus to mature. She wonders what it would attract once the Karma Fire Lotus seed pod fully matures. He watched unblinkingly at the ruby-like seed pod. Inside the seed pod of the Karma Fire Lotus, there are Karma Fire Lotus Seeds, which is the food most favored by the Fire Element Demon Beast, the Karma Fire Beast, of the continent. Yuan Bu Po doesn’t know exactly what kind of Demon Beast a Karma Fire Beast is, but he has heard that as soon as a Karma Fire Beast is born, it is a Commander-level Holy Beast, and as it matures, there is even hope that it directly transforms into a Divine Beast. Yuan Bu Po himself is a Summoner, but unlike the summoners of Emperor Hong City, he can only contract with a Demon Beast once in his life, so he never contracted with a Demon Beast before adulthood. The way he contracts with a Demon Beast is unusual, not the usual Magic Space Contract seen across the continent, but a musical Contract. Yuan Bu Po, naturally talented and proud, was unwilling to contract with ordinary Demon Beasts, so he went through a lot of trouble to find out about the Karma Fire Beast, known as the king of Beast Kings. "Brother Bu Po, the identity of this woman is unclear," When they saw the Karma Fire Lotus, Yuan Bu Po and Xuan Meimei had different reactions. Yun Sheng had limited knowledge about Emperor Hong City; she didn’t realize that her inadvertent intrusion into the Earth Core Molten Cave would directly lead to a shocking change in Emperor Hong City later. All this was related to the origins of Emperor Hong City. Most of the residents of Emperor Hong City were exceptionally talented, compared to other people in the Wuji Continent; the city had a population of thirty thousand, nearly eighty percent of whom were martial artists, mages, and summoners. The Xuanyuan Clan was the largest family in the city, and their descendants possessed extraordinarily remarkable talents. However, there were not many summoners among them, accounting for only about ten percent. According to the rules of Emperor Hong City, the position of the city lord of Emperor Hong City has always been held by the most outstanding summoner from the Xuanyuan Clan. Because the first city lord of Emperor Hong City was the one who used the Emperor’s Song and his demon beast to establish the legend of Emperor Hong City. Thus, there has always been a saying in Emperor Hong City that only the strongest summoner and the most powerful demon beast together, without one lacking, can truly play the Emperor Hong Nine Chapters. However, starting from five hundred years ago, there had not been any extraordinarily talented summoners in the Yuan Family, but looking at the Xuan Family, up to Xuan Wuji’s father’s generation, there was at least one outstanding summoner in each generation. Yuan Bu Po believed that his talent far surpassed that of Xuan Wuji and Xuan Meimei; he had already determined in his heart to become the first extraordinary summoner of the Yuan Family in these five hundred years. Yuan Bu Po had his own selfish motives in doing so; firstly, he simply couldn’t accept someone like Xuan Wuji, who he considered incompetent, as the city lord; secondly, he knew that only if he succeeded as the city lord would there be a chance for his elder sister, Yuan Shahu, who had been expelled from Emperor Hong City, to return one day. After Yuan Shahu was expelled from the city, Yuan Bu Po’s mother yearned for her daughter day and night, driving Yuan Bu Po to resolve one day to abolish those outdated rules of Emperor Hong City. Of course, these calculations of Yuan Bu Po were unknown even to Xuan Meimei, and he certainly wouldn’t disclose his plans to her. Xuan Meimei watched from the side, her eyes also showing a hint of greed. Is that the Karma Fire Lotus that can lure the Karma Fire Beast King? She recalled what her father advised during her recent journey outside: "Meimei, remember, once you leave Emperor Hong City, you must find a way to locate Yuan Bu Po; I hear he is likely to visit the Earth Core Molten Cave. Your brother is not competent, the future position of city lord of the Xuan Family depends entirely on you." Being from the City Lord Mansion, Xuan Meimei was naturally not that naive. Although she and Xuan Wuji were siblings from the same parents, ever since Xuan Wuji, as the heir to the next city lord, was publicly shamed due to his fiancée, Yuan Sha’s repudiation, the reputation of the City Lord Mansion had greatly declined in the city. Additionally, with the rise of the young genius Yuan Bu Po from the Yuan Family, there were already rumors in Emperor Hong City that the Yuan Family would replace the Xuan Family as the next city lord. This time, if Yuan Bu Po really contracts the Karma Fire Beast using Emperor’s Song, then Yuan Bu Po becoming the future city lord would be as certain as a nail hammered in. Previously, Xuan Meimei had hoped that if Yuan Bu Po became the city lord, he would marry her, but the last time, he actually had shown affection to a despicable youth from the Yun Family. This made the narrow-minded Xuan Meimei feel quite upset. If it were me who had contracted the Karma Fire Beast using the Emperor’s Song, then Yuan Bu Po would have to obediently listen to me. Xuan Meimei thought to herself secretly.
