Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

"Fire Spirit Jade Marrow!"

Upon hearing these four words, Chu Yunfan was instantly moved.

If we say that the finest spirit stones already contain the purest spiritual power.

So, spirit stone chalcedony is a rare treasure of heaven and earth that can only be formed after the best spirit stones absorb the essence of heaven and earth and undergo thousands of years.

A small piece of chalcedony not only contains an immense amount of pure spiritual energy, but also possesses a variety of magical effects.

For example, the Fire Spirit Jade Marrow that the Gold-Eating Rat King just mentioned contains an incredibly pure and massive amount of fire-attribute spiritual power, which directly allowed the Gold-Eating Rat King to undergo a complete transformation, greatly improving its aptitude.

As a result, the Gold-Eating Rat King, which was originally only destined to grow into a peak third-tier demon beast, actually broke through its limitations and grew into a great demon king.

This is simply defying the heavens!

However, in his excitement, Chu Yunfan suddenly frowned, turned to look at the Gold-Eating Rat King, and asked:

"Little Jin, although Fire Spirit Jade Marrow can cleanse the marrow and improve one's aptitude."

However, it should only allow you to break through the shackles of a third-tier demon beast and become a fourth-tier demon beast, how could it possibly allow you to cross two major realms and become a demon king?

Could it be that the Fire Spirit Jade Marrow you consumed was a top-grade Fire Spirit Jade Marrow that had been nurtured for countless years?

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan's expression changed again.

If that's the case, then the fire-attribute spirit stone vein beneath this volcano is many times more precious than Chu Yunfan had previously imagined.

However, the reality was clearly not as rosy as Chu Yunfan had imagined.

The appearance of Fire Spirit Jade Marrow is already an extremely fortunate event.

The highest grade Fire Spirit Jade Marrow is a legendary item, appearing only once every tens of thousands of years on the Azure Cloud Continent.

However, although there was no top-grade Fire Spirit Jade Marrow.

However, Xiao Jin brought Chu Yunfan another surprise.

"Master, I can break through to the Demon King realm."

"Besides the Fire Spirit Jade Essence, we also owe a lot to Little Red's help!"

When Xiao Hong was mentioned, Xiao Jin's face lit up with a smile, and she looked very happy.

"Little Red? Where did this Little Red come from?"

Chu Yunfan stared at Xiao Jin, but his face was full of doubt.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin quickly explained:

"Inside this volcano, there is a huge lava lake, and Xiao Hong lives there."

"Little Red is very capable, Master. Shall I take you to see her?"

"Lava lake!"

Upon hearing these words, Chu Yunfan's expression immediately changed.

"The 'Little Red' that Xiao Jin mentioned, could it be the Earth Core Fire Spirit?"

Upon realizing this, Chu Yunfan's eyes suddenly turned strange as he stared at Xiao Jin, unsure how to describe his feelings at that moment.

Seeing Chu Yunfan's expression, Xiao Jin immediately asked:

"Master, judging from your expression, is there a problem?"

"No, let's go take a look!"

After some thought, Chu Yunfan felt that with his current strength and the sixth-order Dan Fire, there was no need to be too wary of the Earth Core Fire Spirit.

Then, the man and the mouse walked along the tunnel that Xiao Jin had dug, heading deeper into the volcano.

As Chu Yunfan had predicted, things turned out exactly as he had expected.

The lava lake that Xiao Jin mentioned was the one where Chu Yunfan encountered the Earth Core Fire Spirit before.

Moreover, as soon as Chu Yunfan arrived at the lava lake, the Earth Core Fire Spirit sensed Chu Yunfan's presence.

The entire lava lake suddenly erupted in a turmoil, as if it might launch an attack on Chu Yunfan at any moment.

Chu Yunfan was not surprised by this at all.

He took the Earth Core Fire Lotus from here last time, so the Earth Core Fire Spirit must hate him very much.

However, although the lava lake was turbulent, it never truly erupted and attacked Chu Yunfan.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan's lips curled up slightly, and he chuckled inwardly.

"It seems that the Little Red that Little Jin mentioned must be the Earth Core Fire Spirit."

The Earth Core Fire Spirit refrained from attacking when it saw Little Gold beside me!

Immediately afterward, Chu Yunfan pondered for a moment before speaking to the lava lake:

"Rare and precious materials will be obtained by those who are destined to receive them!"

The Earth Core Fire Lotus has been here for so many years, but it has been of no use to you.

In the end, the fact that I got it only shows that it was meant for me, so why should you be angry about it?

Moreover, I am Xiao Jin's friend, and you are Xiao Jin's friend too.

A friend of a friend is also a friend.

Since that's the case, why don't you come out and show yourself, and we can all be good friends?

No sooner had the words been spoken than a childish voice came from the lava lake.

You're lying!

Little Jin said, "You're its owner, not its friend!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunfan showed a slight look of surprise.

"Unexpectedly, this Earth Core Fire Spirit has fully awakened its intelligence and can speak!"

However, its mental development is only at the level of a three-year-old child.

With a change of heart, Chu Yunfan spoke:

"There is no conflict between master and friend."

Although I am Xiao Jin's owner, I treat him very well; we are like good friends!

As soon as Chu Yunfan finished speaking, Xiao Jin immediately chimed in:

"Yes, Xiao Hong."

My master treats me very well; you'll see once you spend some time with him!

As the voice faded, Xiao Hong's tender voice echoed again from the lava lake.

"Hmph! I won't associate with him."

These humans are all the same; they only think about refining me and using me, they won't treat me as a friend!

Upon hearing Xiao Hong's words, Chu Yunfan immediately retorted.

"Xiao Hong, you're not right to say that!"

You have no evidence, so how can you say I only wanted to take advantage of you?

Look at me and Xiao Jin, we're good friends, we help each other, isn't that great!

"Look at you, all alone here, so lonely and miserable! How pitiful and miserable!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Jin started to help again.

"Yes, Xiao Hong."

You must be so lonely here all alone. The world is so big and so wonderful. Don't you want to come out and explore with us?

After he finished speaking, the lava lake fell silent.

After a long while, Xiao Hong's slightly hesitant voice rang out.

"I don't like being alone, and I also want to see the wonderful world outside."

But if I leave here, my strength will weaken, and I'm afraid!

Upon hearing Xiao Hong's words, Chu Yunfan's face lit up with joy, and he continued to persuade her:

"What do you have to be afraid of? Your current strength is greater than both mine and Xiao Jin's."

But look at me, Xiao Jin and I are living a good life outside.

Moreover, the three of us helping each other will make us stronger and less afraid!

"Yes! With me and Master here, there's nothing to be afraid of!"

Xiao Jin started helping Chu Yunfan again.

Finally, after repeated persuasion from Chu Yunfan and Xiao Jin, the Earth Core Fire Spirit was moved and slowly emerged from the lava lake.

Only then did Chu Yunfan realize that the true appearance of the Earth Core Fire Spirit was a golden-red flame, somewhat similar to Chu Yunfan's sixth-order Dan Fire.

However, Chu Yunfan's sixth-order alchemical fire was mainly red, with a touch of gold.

The Earth Core Fire Spirit, on the other hand, has a more pronounced gold color and a paler red color, making it significantly more powerful than Chu Yunfan's sixth-order pill fire.
