Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms - Chapter 3248
3248 Chapter 3249-fatal mutation
As a lucky man, how could Chen Xiaobei return empty-handed from a treasure vault?
Fiery King and Zhurong had consumed all the resources in the treasure vault one after another, and it seemed that nothing was left.
However, as the founder of the erupting flame heaven sect, fiery King hoped that the sect could continue to flourish from the bottom of his heart. Therefore, he had hidden an important item that only the successor recognized by fiery King could obtain.
Obviously, Chen Xiaobei was this person!
“Chi …”
Following the directions of the explosive token, Chen Xiaobei quickly arrived at an unassuming corner of the vault.
“Ka! Ka! Ka …”
The sound of rocks moving could be heard from the wall, and a secret compartment was opened.
There was also an intricate concealment array that could block essence soul domains. Ordinary people would not be able to sense what was hidden in the secret compartment.
Although Zhurong was not an ordinary person, fiery King had taken away all his high-level Dharma Treasures, spiritual stones, resources, and capital when he entered the treasure vault.
Therefore, from the beginning, Zhurong didn’t have much interest in this treasure house, so he didn’t carefully explore every corner. Otherwise, with Zhurong’s ability, he would most likely be able to find this secret compartment.
Of course, since Zhurong was not found, the treasure hidden in the secret compartment was now in Chen Xiaobei’s possession.
Whoosh … Whoosh …
It was a fire seed the size of a red date. It flickered in the hidden compartment, as if it would be extinguished at any time.
“What is this?”
Chen Xiaobei frowned and asked, ” fiery King’s last words did not mention this secret compartment, nor did he say what the fire seed is …
Of course, after observing for a while, Chen Xiaobei suddenly thought of something.
“Swish!”
Chen Xiaobei took out a red jade ball from his infinite space ring.
To the naked eye, this jade ball looked ordinary. Even the texture of the Jade was very ordinary. The main point was that it had no spirituality at all. Even in the Jade Market on earth, this jade ball could only be regarded as a low-mid grade item.
This was the mysterious jade ball that Chen Xiaobei had obtained from the Jade Palace Treasury.
According to Emperor Jiang, this jade ball contained a wisp of mysterious and pure fire-property vital essence!
However, this trace of true essence was too subtle, and Emperor Jiang couldn’t give an exact answer. He didn’t know what kind of alien flame it was, nor could he define its level.
The reason why Chen Xiaobei took out the red jade ball at this time was because both the red jade ball and the fire seed in the hidden compartment were fire element.
Moreover, although the fire seed in the secret compartment was weak and could be extinguished at any time, the fire element aura it emitted was extremely pure and strong!
Because of that, Chen Xiaobei guessed that if these two things were put together, something magical might happen.
“I was right!”
When Chen Xiaobei placed the red jade ball near the secret compartment, something happened.
“Ka! Ka! Crack …”
The surface of the Crimson jade ball cracked open like a cracked egg.
“Hiss …”
Then, a strand of light as thin as a hair floated out, emitting a bright red and gold light. It lit up the dark treasure vault.
At the same time, a terrifyingly high temperature burst out. The surrounding air was distorted, and the stone walls and ground were about to melt into lava.
“How terrifying! This terrifying heat is a thousand times hotter than the lava outside the Treasury …”
Fortunately, Chen Xiaobei had the fire taming Pearl to protect himself. Otherwise, he would have been burned to death by the red-gold gossamer at such a close distance.
Chen Xiaobei was not afraid of the high temperature, so he could calm down and observe carefully.
“What is this thing? It’s emitting such pure fire attribute true Qi, but its essence isn’t fire … It looks more like the hair of some kind of creature …”
The Scarlet-gold gossamer fluttered in the air, looking like a strand of a woman’s long hair.
However, if it was really a strand of hair, who could have such a terrifying strand of hair?
“Gululu … Gululu …”
While Chen Xiaobei was thinking, the temperature was still rising. In just a few moments, half of the Treasury had already been melted into boiling lava.
Just a strand of hair that contained a tiny amount of fire ethereal force had already brought about such a terrifying outcome.
If there really was such a woman with a head of lustrous Crimson golden hair, how terrifying would she be?
In the entire heaven realm, she could probably be considered a high-level existence. He could incinerate a planet with just a wave of his hand, engulfing the entire world in a sea of fire.
“Whoosh …”
Just as Chen Xiaobei was thinking to himself, the Tinder in the secret compartment also emitted the same red-gold light and floated toward the gossamer.
“This fire seed and the gossamer seem to be of the same origin … Their auras are very, very similar, and they emit a strange resonance … Where did they come from? Who was the original master?”
Chen Xiaobei had more and more questions.
The gossamer came from the Jade void Palace, and the fire seed came from the explosive flame heaven sect. Obviously, these two sects were not the true owners of the gossamer and fire seed.
It was through some kind of opportunity that the gossamer and the fire seed fell into the hands of these two major sects.
“It’s useless to rely on my imagination …”
Chen Xiaobei did not understand. I’ll find a way to get spiritual stones first and turn six-eared macaque into Zhurong. That might answer the questions in my heart!
“Phew! Hiss …”
However, at this moment, the Tinder was suddenly pulled by the gossamer and completely infused into the gossamer.
“Whoosh!”
What was even more unbelievable was that after fusing with the Tinder, the red-gold gossamer was shot directly between Chen Xiaobei’s eyebrows.
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei was very close to the gossamer. He was focused on observing it and was not prepared for it. The red-gold gossamer pierced through his forehead.
“Swish!”
In the blink of an eye, the red-gold gossamer had penetrated into Chen Xiaobei’s flesh!
It was a powerful being that carried fire ethereal force and a terrifyingly high temperature. If it were to enter Chen Xiaobei’s flesh and blood, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Uh …”
Chen Xiaobei let out a painful wail, his face contorted, his pupils constricted, and his body stiffened as if he had been sealed. He could not even move a finger.
“Gululu … Gululu …”
Soon, the frozen Chen Xiaobei was slowly sinking into the depths of the lava.
His life and death were unknown!
