Without waiting for Su Shi'er to activate it, the Treasure Umbrella gave a gentle shake and activated on its own.
Then, the Fire Bird Artifact Spirit emerged from the umbrella's surface.
Southern Bright Leaving Fire danced across the Artifact Spirit's body. The fire bird let out a faint, cheerful cry, as though it had spotted a sumptuous feast.
With a flap of its wings, it whipped up a fierce gale that swept backward, greedily drawing the scorching heatwave and sinister flames into the Treasure Umbrella.
Southern Bright Leaving Fire was a renowned spiritual flame in the Cultivation World. At the same time, it was the innate flame of the Vermilion Bird, one of the Four Sacred Beasts.
In fact, should Southern Bright Leaving Fire awaken its intelligence, given enough time, it might become a spirit or monster itself, ultimately transforming into a true Vermilion Bird Sacred Beast.
The Vermilion Bird was itself a type of demonic beast. The demonic fire of this Demon Realm could naturally be absorbed with ease before Southern Bright Leaving Fire.
With the Half-Immortal Artifact Treasure Umbrella protecting him, Su Shi'er immediately felt the pressure lessen.
Ignoring the Demon Qi surging through his body, he swallowed several healing spirit pills and gripped a Top-grade Spirit Crystal in each hand.
He promptly sat cross-legged in the air above the river of magma and began treating his injuries with all his strength.
During the third stage of the Endless Horizon trade fair, someone had issued a great number of commissioned missions targeting Xuan Nu Tower.
Su Shi'er was deeply worried about Xuan Nu Tower's current situation.
Yet no matter how anxious he was, he first had to find a way out of the Demon Realm. At the same time... he had to restore himself to his peak condition.
