Yuan Bupo and Xuan Meimei’s mouths were agape, their faces so rich in expression that simple shock was an understatement.The thought of using a Divine Beast as a mount in exchange for medical consultation fees, for ten years, such audacity was only conceivable by Yun Sheng across the entire Wuji Continent. "That won’t do. I am a Divine Beast, and you’re merely a Great Magic Director. I cannot demote myself by serving as your mount. However, if you one day become a Magic God, I might ponder upon it," Suanni, rarely not angered, spoke. Being a Fire Demon, Suanni naturally had a more volatile temper compared to other Demon Beasts of the three natural attributes. Yet, because Yun Sheng had cured its tooth and freed it from millenniums of agony, Suanni found itself unusually patient with her. "Let’s do this; I dislike being indebted to others. You just mentioned wanting something of great value. Presently, the most precious thing I have is just one item. If you can rightfully claim it, then take it," Suanni said, its eyeballs bulging as it glanced around Yun Sheng. Though her visage was entirely ruined, in the depths of her ink-jade like eyes which shone brightly even in the dark night, there lay a composure and calm at odds with her age. Her demeanor alone, when confronted by Suanni, was enough to rival those of legendary peak powerhouses of the Wuji Continent. The eyesight of a Divine Beast is truly exceptional. How could Suanni fail to see that despite Yun Sheng being a Great Magic Director, she possessed a rare Multi-element Magic Soul and at least two other mysterious powers within her? Especially the Jade Bracelet on her hand, as well as the odd force undulating from within her... Suanni couldn’t help but wonder if the female Mage before it was the very one it had been waiting for over thousands of years. Having said that, Suanni moved a few steps away. A Magic Array, which had been previously suppressed beneath it, now came into view. This Magic Array, similar to the one they used to enter Suanni’s domain, was somewhat different. It radiated a thick Fire Magic Element. "This is the Fire Origin Power, the Holy Fire left by the ancient Fire Elf King, known as Elf Karma Fire. For tens of thousands of years, I have vigilantly guarded here, awaiting someone destined to acquire this wisp of Elf Karma Fire, yet regrettably, no one has ever breached the Earth Core Melt Cave," Suanni said, not without sentiment. For this Karmic Fire, the proud Divine Beast has been trapped underground for tens of thousands of years. The loneliness and helplessness therein were beyond words. "Do you mean for me to try and claim this wisp of Elf Karma Fire?" Yun Sheng’s eyelids twitched. "Elf Karma Fire is the coveted flame for all Fire-element Mages. It will purify itself as your Magic Level increases. Once you become a Magic God, you can even wield it to slay all tangible beings between heaven and earth," the words of Suanni stirred everyone present. Xuan Meimei spoke eagerly, "Honorable Suanni, I am also a Mage, and my Magic Realm is even higher than hers. Perhaps I am more suited to claim the Elf Karma Fire." "Hmph, greedy ant, since you wish to try, then give it a try," Suanni recognized the greed in Xuan Meimei’s eyes and did not obstruct. "Meimei, don’t be rash," Yuan Bupo hurriedly cautioned Xuan Meimei upon hearing this. Both he and Xuan Meimei had impressive Magic Cultivation, but even they couldn’t discern the actual level of the so-called Elf Magic Array. But a Magic Array guarded by a Divine Beast like Suanni was bound to be extraordinary. Yun Sheng also had her concerns, sharing the same thoughts as Yuan Bupo. "Ants, think carefully. I’ll only grant you one chance to choose," Suanni watched on with a look of amusement. In truth, the existence of the Earth Core Melt Cave wasn’t as secretive as the legends suggested. Living underground for so many years, there were indeed some of the Ant Man Human Clan who found their way here. Those who were more faint-hearted were devoured by Suanni in one bite. The braver ones among them, it would let them try to obtain the Elf Karmic Fire’s flame. Unfortunately, not a single person succeeded. Those who failed... Suan Ni chuckled coldly twice. "I’ll try," Yun Sheng pondered for a moment, and quickly made up her mind. Xuan Meimei heard this, immediately stepped forward, and said, "I’ll try too, and I’ll go before you." The precious Elf Karmic Fire offered only one chance to be obtained. If Yun Sheng was to get it first, then everything would be too late. After saying this, Xuan Meimei entered the Magic Array. But after she stepped into the Magic Array, the Array showed no response for a long time. "How could this be? Where is the Elf Karmic Fire?" Xuan Meimei looked around. "Hmph, foolish ant, with your cunning mind, the Karmic Fire simply refuses to accept you. Get lost," Suan Ni roared. The Fire Elf Karmic Fire is the most pure flame from nature. Only those with a pure heart can pass the Karmic Fire’s trial. Xuan Meimei lacked even the most basic qualification, so naturally, the Magic Array did not activate. "What crappy Karmic Fire, how could I possibly be unable to summon the Karmic Fire?" Xuan Meimei, unyielding, stomped on the Magic Array beneath her feet, wishing she could crush the Array to pieces. Little did she know, upon her stomp, a fierce flame over a person tall burst forth from the previously inert Elf Karmic Fire Magic Array. The fierce flame was so intense it could melt any kind of the hardest ore on the continent. Caught off guard, Xuan Meimei’s face was scorched by the fire. She let out a cry of pain. Her entire face and head were ablaze. Had it not been for the armor on her body, she would have become a ball of fire. "Meimei, get down immediately," Yuan Bupo also turned pale with shock. After all, Xuan Meimei was part of the Xuan Family from Dihong City; he couldn’t just watch her burn to death. Flailing about, Xuan Meimei crawled on the ground as Suan Ni leapt over, kicking her out of the Magic Array with a single foot. Xuan Meimei rolled on the ground a few times, covered in blood and mud. Despite using a Magic Potion for treatment, her appearance was frightful. Once beautiful, her face now resembled a smashed persimmon, a blur of blood and flesh. Yun Sheng could clearly see the bones of her face. "Fool, to dare to defy the majesty of the Karmic Fire," Suan Ni said disdainfully. Now, Xuan Meimei truly became an unequivocal "ugly woman". "Brother Bu Po, my face, my face, I will have father destroy this place," Xuan Meimei felt an intense pain in her face. "Meimei, stop crying. I’ll take you to Dihong City in a bit. The City Lord will surely have a way to heal your face," Yuan Bupo did not expect the Elf Karmic Fire Magic Array to also have a temper like a human’s. "People from Dihong City can’t heal her face. That’s Elf Karmic Fire. To heal the damage caused by the Karmic Fire won’t be easy," Yun Sheng had little sympathy for Xuan Meimei’s injury. The people of Dihong City had caused the death of so many Yun Family Army brothers in the past, leaving Yun Canglang’s hands disabled and in despair for so many years. However, based on the medical morals of a Doctor, she could at least give them a reminder.
