When the group entered the second layer, they could sense that the devilish energy here was a couple times denser than that of the first layer.
”Everyone, take care of yourselves. The real fight begins now,” reminded Yu Caidie.
Sure enough, they hadn't traveled far when a few Devil Kings shot out from the ground. These Devil Kings were devil flame rats. With devilish flame wrapped around their bodies, they attacked the group of humans with an extremely powerful offensive capability.
Some in the group cultivated the power of flame, and they started quickly killing the devil flame rats and harvesting their devil cores. The devil cores were for the devilish beasts what the demonic cores were for the demonic beasts. However, the devil cores did have one advantage over the demonic cores as one could directly absorb the energy within a devil core.
Of course, since there was also devilish energy within the devil cores, one had to first purify the devilish energy before they could absorb the remaining energy in the devil core. After that process, only about one third of the energy within the devil core would remain.
Even so, one should never underestimate the remaining energy as it was enough to accelerate the growth of any cultivators with greater efficiency than spirit crystals. That was one of the reasons why each year various organizations would send their talented disciples to the Devil Domain. It was one of the fastest methods for their disciples to grow.
However, the devil cores of these devil flame rats were too low in quality to be of much help to this particular group of geniuses. Their main goal was instead the devil flame of the devil flame rats. Devil flames were also cla.s.sified as unique flames, and cultivating even a tiny bit of devil flame would prove very helpful for these genius cultivators.
Presently, Yun Flame was stirring in excitement within Xiang Shaoyun's third star. It repeatedly urged Xiang Shaoyun to head toward a certain direction.
Is there a unique flame there? wondered Xiang Shaoyun inwardly.
However, Xiang Shaoyun did not leave the group. For now, he still needed to obey Yu Caidie and would only be free to act after he had gotten her what she needed. Fortunately, the direction Yu Caidie picked was also the same direction Yun Flame was urging Xiang Shaoyun to go.
A large number of devil flame rats were in the area, and it was obvious this was their territory. The devil flame rats bred at a rapid speed, which was how they had been able to survive at the border of the first and second layers of the Devil Domain.
As the group moved forward, more and more devil flame rats appeared. These devil flame rats were all Kings, and some were even late-stage Kings. Finally, devils capable of posing the group some threat had appeared.
Even Xiang Shaoyun managed to kill two devil flame rats this time. Holding the devil cores in his hand, he could sense the energy contained within them. However, before he could further study them, Yun Flame had already impatiently devoured the energy in the two cores. Emptied of energy, the two cores turned into dust.
Inwardly, Xiang Shaoyun mused, Looks like Yun Flame is getting impatient to grow even stronger.
Others might fear the devilish energy in the devil cores, but that did not apply to Xiang Shaoyun.
