489 Soul-Grade Material! (2/2)
At the waist of the hill around two kilometers away from the Hunters, a group of Magicians with special Earth Element Soul Seeds were walking on the steep walls as if they were on flat ground.
The Magicians continued to walk upward, and tied ropes around the rocks that stuck out from the surface...
They kept on heading up and tying ropes around the rocks, allowing the people of the Magic Association to climb up using the ropes.

The world was filled with wonders. The restless Drifting Sand River had stopped many people who were planning to explore the North Burning Valley, but the Hunter Union, Magic Associations and the military managed to find people with outstanding capabilities to overcome the difficulties.
These people were not here just for the Soul Seed Pieces and Soul Seeds scattered across the ground. They were here for the Fire Calamity Fruit!

The silent night sky had a hint of dark blue to it, and was veiled by a faint mist in the wee hours, hiding the brilliant Milky Way. The blurry light descended upon the quiet woods on the top of the hill, adding an outstanding beauty to it.
Mo Fan sat on the slope under the Starry Tree and the empty sky, the boundless Burning Valley, and the solitary fiery sorceress...
Looking at the fiery sorceress treating the Fire Calamity Fruit on the Starry Tree with extreme caution, seeing the back of the figure that had existed for an unknown number of years, Mo Fan was suddenly curious about her story.
”Why are you protecting the Fire Calamity Fruit?” asked Mo Fan, who was sitting on the ground having a rest.
The fiery sorceress was able to float freely, with a figure similar to a glamorous lady. She was patrolling around the Fire Calamity Fruit, as if she were afraid that someone would take the fruit away.
She slowly landed beside Mo Fan after hearing his question, and used her unique language to chat with Mo Fan.
”Are you trying to say, I'll know in a few days?” Mo Fan tried to interpret what she was trying to say.
The fiery sorceress nodded.
”It's already a fruit, it can't possibly blossom into a tree and bear fruits?” said Mo Fan.
Mo Fan remembered Chen Yi had mentioned that the Fire Calamity Fruit would disappear a short time after it was borne. Her father had sent someone to look for the Fire Calamity Fruit a few times, yet he always missed the time when it was still available.
Why would she try and protect something that would disappear in time?
Or perhaps the Fire Calamity Fruit was like a persimmon, which is more delicious after leaving it for a few more days after it had ripened?
”Oh, are you asking how is my body?” Mo Fan rose to his feet and stretched his body. Apart from some slight pain in his joints, his body was fine. He said to the fiery sorceress who was worried about him with a smile, ”I think I'm good now. I should be leaving, my friends must be worried about me.
”Either way, thanks for saving me. If there's anything you need my help with, feel free to tell me,” said Mo Fan to the fiery sorceress.
The fiery sorceress uttered a pleasant cry, and did not ask Mo Fan to do her any favor, nor did she tried to hold him back.
”I guess it's goodbye then. Sigh, no sign of the Flame Belle, and the Fire Calamity Fruit is in your hands. Maybe I should just try and search for the Soul Seeds and Soul Seed Pieces and sell them for some cash,” sighed Mo Fan with an open mind.
