If the heat was strong enough for Mo Fan to feel it, it indicated that the temperature on the mountain was incredibly high.

Mo Fan slowly made his way up toward the top of the mountain along the meandering path. He had yet to reach the tallest peak, but he had made it to the mountain top.

The sand of the desert was nowhere to be seen at this height, as it was impossible for the wind to blow the sand so high up. The mountain’s top consisted of solid rocks burned continuously by the fire. Soul Seed Pieces were scattered across the place too. Mo Fan did not hesitate to pick them up. He could definitely feed them to Little Flame Belle!

The quality of the Soul Seed Pieces here was rather impressive. He believed Little Flame Belle would enjoy them.

“Do I just wait for the fire here?” Mo Fan sat down on a stone and started to wonder.

Mo Fan would have to stay to see if the fire was able to help Little Flame Belle to be reborn. He could not tell if his demon flesh would be able to withstand the heat of the fire.

“I’ll just wait. It’s not easy coming up here. Besides, the others should be fine at the relay station,” Mo Fan murmured.

Mo Fan had already told the others that he was most likely going to wait for the fire on the mountain. Only then would Mo Fan be able to find the Sacred Ground of the Fire Element to resurrect Little Flame Belle. Mo Fan was willing to stay here for a year if need be, let alone a single day.

Mo Fan closed his eyes and started meditating. The place had an abundant supply of pure Fire Magic. The environment was significantly better than even the Three Step Tower. He could make use of the opportunity to consolidate his Fire Element!

Mo Fan threw himself into the process. He gradually forgot about time and how drenched in sweat he was.

Mo Fan opened his eyes once. The sun was still hanging high in the sky. However, the next time he opened his eyes, the sun was setting on the horizon. To his surprise, the temperature of the mountain was rising, the opposite of the setting sun.

——

Time went by quickly. It was night again soon. Lin Feili told him that the whole mountain would be set ablaze at night, and the Sandstorm Demon Locusts would show up again to burn themselves to ashes.

The whole mountain turned into a sea of flames as soon as the fire showed up. Mo Fan found himself surrounded by flames that were hotter than he had expected. His demon flesh was already being blistered by the overwhelming heat!

“Are you serious? It’s this strong!?” Mo Fan clenched his teeth. He suddenly felt like a little monkey that had been tossed into a furnace.

He was completely surrounded by fire. He was even struggling to open his eyes. How was he supposed to look for the source of the fire?

Mo Fan slowly moved forward. He was merely following his instincts…

“It must be here… damn it, I can’t even see anything. It’s nothing but fire!” Mo Fan ran through the fire. As a matter of fact, the fire had already burned his clothes to ashes, meaning that he was running naked across the mountain top!

The bunch of Sandstorm Demon Locusts suffering from ‘depression’ had gathered around the mountain. However, they were soon burned to ashes as their resistance to fire was nowhere close to Mo Fan’s.

Mo Fan suddenly discovered an interesting phenomenon. “Mmm? The Sandstorm Demon Locusts are all flying in that direction. Are they heading toward the Elemental Sacred Ground?”

It was a living creature’s nature to seek advantages. There must be something that the Sandstorm Demon Locusts were so obsessed with that they kept diving toward it recklessly.

Mo Fan followed the Sandstorm Demon Locusts and arrived at a place surrounded by enormous boulders. The fire here was pure and fierce! Mo Fan almost felt like he was going to be burned to ashes!

“This is it!” Mo Fan was overjoyed. He suddenly felt that the Sandstorm Demon Locusts were actually a bunch of cute little creatures. Otherwise, he had no idea how long it would have taken him to find the right place!

“Is there a Soul-grade Seed here?” Mo Fan was intrigued. What exactly was the source that set the mountain on fire every night? It would no doubt be treated as a spectacular attraction, if it was not so hidden away in the desert.

Mo Fan tried using his senses, but he did not detect the presence of a Soul-grade Seed.

It was very likely that the mountain had a Soul-grade Seed somewhere, but it seemed like it would be quite difficult to find where it was.

“Little Flame Belle, do you like this place?” Mo Fan held the Fire Calamity Fruit that Little Flame Belle turned into in his hands. His smile was a little twisted, as he was still being tortured by the heat.

Little Flame Belle seemed extremely fond of the place, but Mo Fan did not dare to stay any further. He quickly tossed the Fire Calamity Fruit into the Elemental Sacred Ground so Little Flame Belle could draw in as much energy as she needed for her resurrection!

Little Flame Belle was indeed a creature blessed by nature and born in fire. The Fire Calamity Fruit floated in the middle of the fire, yet the flames did not leave a single scratch on it. The tongues of fire were rapidly gathering toward Little Flame Belle!

Mo Fan could not afford to stay any longer, and quickly backed away. When he was possessed by Little Flame Belle, he had a remarkable Fire Resistance, but the cultivation of his Fire Element alone was still not enough to withstand the heat.

“Enjoy a nice bath in the hot spring, daddy can’t stand the heat any longer. I’ll wait outside and come pick you up when the fire is gone!” Mo Fan called out.

Mo Fan quickly left the area. He would seriously turn into a pile of ashes if he stayed any longer.

Mo Fan ran a kilometer away from the Elemental Sacred Ground. The temperature finally fell to within his acceptable range.

He took hold of the opportunity to cultivate. He didn’t believe many people could meditate in fire like he did. The Demon Element had indeed granted him lots of advantages!

Mo Fan heard wings flapping just when he was just about to close his eyes.

He turned around and saw a blue-red Sandstorm Demon Locust flapping its wings on a rock nearby. It was surrounded by flames around five meters high. However, the Sandstorm Demon Locust was not burned into ashes like the rest. It seemed to have a certain resistance to fire, just like Mo Fan!

The little creature was moving clumsily. Its body was a lot smaller than a normal Sandstorm Demon Locust. It was like a little locust that was born not long ago.

“It seems to be a little mutated demon locust. Come over here, you can keep me company,” Mo Fan was amused.

The Sandstorm Demon Locusts were able to withstand the outstanding heat, but they were extremely vulnerable to the flames that could easily set them all on fire in an instant and burn them to nothing. Mo Fan was surprised to find the mutated demon locust among the army of Sandstorm Demon Locusts, a mutated demon locust that was not afraid of fire!

The little locust did not seem to be afraid of humans either. It flew into the air and landed beside Mo Fan, staring at him with its big compound eyes. It was difficult to tell if it was wondering if Mo Fan could be food.

“Here, have some jerky,” Mo Fan took out a piece of jerky from the storage of his Space Element and gave it to the little demon locust.

The demon locust ate the jerky instantly. If it was any slower, the jerky would be overcooked in no time.

The demon locust was not hostile to Mo Fan. Mo Fan was not interested in killing a young demon locust either. He closed his eyes to meditate, while the mutated demon locust jumped around nearby. It seemed to be learning how to fly.

Its wings were extremely weak. It needed to stretch its wings and recover a few times in order to fly properly.

—

The fire eventually died down, Mo Fan immediately headed over to where Little Flame Belle was, but the Fire Calamity Fruit was perfectly intact, as if she had yet to absorb enough energy from the fire.

Mo Fan had no choice. He would have to stay for another night. The only relief was, he was slowly getting used to the heat after staying in the fire for the entire night. His blistered skin fell off and was replaced by a new skin that was more resistant toward fire!

The mutated demon locust was following Mo Fan closely. Its eyes were flickering greedily, as if it was looking forward to eating more roast jerky…

——

Mo Fan waited until it was night again patiently. He sat on a rock and waited until the mountain was devoured by the fire. The Sandstorm Demon Locusts appeared right on time, diving at the sacred ground of fire.

The little locust stood beside him. It was watching the breathtaking sight, just like Mo Fan. Perhaps the little creature was quite confused about what its people were doing. Why was it that its uncles and aunties were so weak that they all died in an instant after they were caught on fire? Didn’t they feel extremely comfortable in the fire?

Mo Fan threw Little Flame Belle into the Fire Elemental Sacred Ground again. He proceeded to throw the mutated demon locust into the fire, too! However, it turned out that the mutated demon locust was unable to withstand the scorching heat.

“It seems like Little Flame Belle’s level is higher!” Mo Fan burst out laughing when he saw the little demon locust fleeing for its life.

He initially thought the demon locust was immune to the fire, yet it turned out the flames would still burn it into ashes.

Mo Fan heard the sound of the Fire Calamity Fruit cracking. His heart immediately skipped a beat.

In the past, the Fiery Sorceress Jiang Feng had to pour her life into the Fire Calamity Fruit just so Little Flame Belle could be born. Mo Fan was overwhelmed with joy when he sensed the presence of Little Flame Belle gradually rising from the Fire Elemental Sacred Ground.

“Please resurrect!”

Little Flame Belle was a blessed creature born of heavenly flames. She was the only one of her kind in the world, and She could only reproduce under strict conditions. Her kind had always struggled to survive past the youth phase.

However, it was also the reason why her kind possessed overwhelming power after they reached their adult phase. Mo Fan was very much looking forward to seeing Little Flame Belle’s changes after she was reborn.

Mo Fan heard a familiar cry when the Fire Calamity Fruit cracked open. A petite figure engulfed in flames flew out of it.

She was swimming freely in the fire, like a fish in the water. However, the little creature did not indulge in the moment. She quickly rammed into Mo Fan’s chest and hugged him firmly.

Mo Fan was startled. Little Flame Belle had fallen right into his arms before he could take a look at her changes. How much did the little creature miss him?

Likewise, Mo Fan was not really concerned about her changes. He was only looking forward to the sense of relief when he felt the heat burning in his chest.

Mo Fan could feel Little Flame Belle’s heartbeat. He could feel Xinxia’s emotions from her, too!

“Let’s go home!” Mo Fan eased up and hugged Little Flame Belle.

Little Flame Belle shook her head and let out a cry, as if she was telling Mo Fan, I’m going to conquer this mountain!
