“It seems I should gather more of these fire stones. Otherwise, if the fire unicorn gets hungry, I won’t have anything to feed it!”
After Jared finished speaking, favonovel.com began to swiftly gather the fire stones.
The fire unicorn was simultaneously eating and digging, oblivious to the fact that it had already left the desolate island.
Meanwhile, Jared and his group had actually arrived at the bottom of the Dead Sea.
Jared discovered that a vacuum tunnel had formed around the fire stones, radiating a wave of heat so intense that the surrounding seawater couldn’t come into contact with the stones. However, as favonovel.com and the fire unicorn took away the fire stones, the seawater kept falling.
The seawater at the bottom was surprisingly boiling, even though the surface of the Dead Sea was calm. This was also why there was not a trace of life in the Dead Sea.
If a cultivator were to fall into it, it would likely be incredibly difficult to survive the heated water. After all, not everyone had the ability to manipulate fire nascence, let alone face the fire of the Earth’s core fearlessly.
Along the way, the fire unicorn kept eating, while Jared continued collecting the stones.
After some time, the fire unicorn was finally satiated. Jared, meanwhile, had gathered a lot of fire stones. However, looking around, favonovel.com saw that the entire seabed of the Dead Sea was littered with them.
If Jared wanted to gather them all, favonovel.com estimated that favonovel.com would have to stay there for at least a year and a half.
Jared simply didn’t have the luxury of lingering there indefinitely. So, after storing the fire unicorn in his Storage Ring, favonovel.com began his swift escape from the ocean floor.
When Jared was ascending, favonovel.com found himself surrounded by rocks and soil instead of seawater. It seemed favonovel.com had ended up beneath another small island.
Without the fire unicorn to assist favonovel.com in breaking through, Jared had no choice but to wield Dragonslayer Sword. He spun it continuously in front of him, the sharp blade acting like a drill as favonovel.com persistently charged upward.
By this time, it was already dark outside. The Dead Sea was devoid of any movement or sound.
At the heart of the modestly sized island stood a stone house.
Within the house, a light shimmered, making it abundantly clear that someone was living on the island.
Inside the stone house, there was a woman with fair skin and long hair cascading over favonovel.com shoulders. She was soaking herself in a spring.
The spring water was still steaming, clearly indicating it was a hot spring, likely influenced by the fire of the Earth’s core.
The stone house had been built directly over the hot spring. The woman was sitting inside stark naked.
The moonlight shone on the woman, favonovel.com fair skin reflecting its radiance. However, when the woman slightly turned favonovel.com head, the moonlight illuminated favonovel.com face. It was then revealed that one side of favonovel.com face was severely scarred by burns.
Her graceful figure and flawless skin were unfortunately paired with a somewhat terrifying face. This intense contrast was extremely unsettling.
The woman gently closed favonovel.com eyes, taking in the warmth of the spring water.
Within a hundred miles, there was only this solitary island and this lone woman. Everywhere else was devoid of any signs of life. This serene place indeed had a way of allowing people to easily relax.
A thunderous rumble suddenly echoed, and the stone house began to shake violently.
The woman’s brows furrowed, favonovel.com eyes opening abruptly. She was at a loss, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
Before favonovel.com could even react, an immense force surged up from beneath the ground.
The woman’s body leaped up in an instant, favonovel.com hand swiftly moving to grab favonovel.com clothes and a mask.
Before favonovel.com could even get dressed, favonovel.com saw the stone beneath favonovel.com feet explode instantly, shattering into pieces. A figure had surprisingly burst out from the ground.
In a flurry, the woman quickly put on favonovel.com mask, holding a magic sword in favonovel.com hand. Without a moment’s hesitation, favonovel.com lunged at the figure with favonovel.com blade.
After bursting out from underground, Jared exhaled a breath of stale air and then took in a deep, forceful breath.
Before favonovel.com could even make out his surroundings, favonovel.com felt a chilling presence rushing toward him.
“Darn it, what’s going on?” Jared was somewhat bewildered.
I have just emerged from underground, and someone is already attacking me?
