After the Liu Household occupied Skylark Mountain, the cultivators of its combat force scattered under their respective squad leaders to search for spirit treasures.
Liu Changxu and the other Foundation Establishment leaders of the Liu Household gathered at Fire God Peak, where the upper-grade second-tier spirit vein lay. Only here could they find the spirit treasures they needed.
Since the summit was a volcanic crater, no spirit wood or spirit fruit grew atop Fire God Peak. At its foot, however, stood groves of Fire-Rock Pines.
The Fire-Rock Pine was a fire-aspected spirit wood that ordinary flames could scarcely harm, which was why it had survived beneath the volcano to this day.
Fire-Rock Pines over three hundred years old reached the quality of second-tier spirit materials and could be used to refine spirit artifacts and formation discs, making them a precious type of spirit wood.
The Fire-Rock Pine's nuts were also excellent ingredients for spirit cuisine and greatly benefited the cultivation of those with fire-aspected spiritual roots.
Several thousand Fire-Rock Pines grew around Fire God Peak, including hundreds over three hundred years old. They represented an enormous fortune.
The Liu Household's leaders were thrilled. Each of them would receive a share of everything harvested that day; the greater the lineage's haul, the greater their own gains.
After searching Fire God Peak thoroughly from top to bottom, they discovered that, besides Fire-Rock Pines, more than fifty second-tier spirit medicinal herbs called Fire Essence Mushrooms grew there. There were other spirit medicinal herbs and spirit plants as well, though not many.
The Liu Household's cultivators also found sixty-two Firecloud Sparrow eggs among the sheer cliffs of Fire God Peak.
Having witnessed the Firecloud Sparrows' strength, they had developed a keen interest in these demon birds, and many lineage members wanted to raise one.
