Upon seeing the situation, Jared quickly followed. Then, he called out to Cloud, “You guys go ahead. I’ll catch up with you soon…”
Jared had insisted that Cloud and the others leave first. After all, the three of them weren’t particularly strong. If he were to leave them, they wouldn’t stand a chance against any danger they might encounter.
Cloud nodded, then quickly steered the airship toward the eastern region.
This startled both Lazlo and Scarlette. They hurriedly exclaimed, “Stop right now! Call them back! They absolutely must not go to that island. It’s extremely dangerous.”
“Without the airship, even if we didn’t encounter any trouble, reaching the mainland by flying on our own would still be quite challenging.”
Both of them asked Cloud to stop and then called Jared back. However, Cloud didn’t listen; instead, he piloted the airship away.
Cloud trusted Jared. He believed that if any danger were to arise, Jared would undoubtedly be able to handle it. If they stayed, not only would they be unable to help, but they would also become a burden. Having spent such a long time with Jared, Cloud had enough self- awareness to realize this.
Lazlo and Scarlette couldn’t understand. Cloud was clearly with Jared, so how could he just stand by and watch Jared march toward his doom without showing any concern?
The airship gradually receded into the distance, while Jared, in pursuit of the fire unicorn, found himself landing on a desolate island.
There were structures on the deserted island, but by now, they had turned into ruins, evidence that someone had once lived here.
Moreover, there were numerous deep pits of various sizes scattered across the island, clearly evidencing past battles.
Jared knew that this deserted island had certainly been inhabited before. A battle must have occurred in the past, and now, it was just a deserted island.
However, he couldn’t understand why the fire unicorn had suddenly become so agitated and ended up on this deserted island.
Jared watched as the fire unicorn descended onto the barren island. It rapidly dug with its claws, creating a dark tunnel that led straight to the underground of the desolate island.
“You’re a celestial beast, a unicorn. How come you’re acting like a rat sneaking into a hole now?”
Upon witnessing the situation, Jared found it extremely peculiar.
Nevertheless, he followed closely behind, moving slowly toward the underground of the desolate island, through the opening created by the fire unicorn.
Before long, Jared noticed a hint of purple appearing around the cave walls. Upon closer inspection, he realized these were actually Purplerite Stones. These stones were considered a type of spiritual stone, and their quality was surprisingly high.
Could it be that the fire unicorn was so agitated because it knew there were Purplerite Stones beneath this deserted island?
Jared picked up a piece of Purplerite Stone, holding it in his hand. He looked at the fire unicorn, utterly puzzled.
However, it seemed that the fire unicorn showed no interest in the Purplerite Stone, persistently heading deeper instead.
“Could there really be higher quality spirit ore deep beneath the deserted island?”
Watching the fire unicorn continuously burrowing deeper into the earth, Jared was quite perplexed.
Nevertheless, he followed suit, simultaneously revolving his Focus Technique, generating a tremendous suction force. This absorbed the aura of the surrounding Purplerite Stone into his body.
Jared wasn’t sure how long he had been following the fire unicorn, but he could feel the air around him growing increasingly hot. Then, all he saw before him was a burst of fiery red.
Jared initially thought that the fire unicorn had dug its way to the earth’s molten core. However, upon closer inspection, he found that it was actually a collection of fiery red stones. Strangely enough, it appeared as though flames were dancing on the surface of the stones.
The fire unicorn opened its mouth wide, continuously devouring the fiery red stones in front of it.
It seemed like the food was incredibly delicious, as every now and then, a call was made to Jared. It was as though the fire unicorn was showing off to Jared.
Underneath this deserted island, there are actually these kinds of spiritual stones, and all of them are filled with flame aura…
Jared was quite taken aback.
“These stones must have been formed over years of enduring the fire of the Earth’s core, perfectly suited to replenish the flame aura of the fire unicorn.”
“The fire unicorn is quite different from Heaven Devouring Beasts. It is rather picky about its food and won’t just eat anything. It’s probably restless because it senses the presence of these fire stones beneath the desolate island,” Vermilion Demon Lord said to Jared.
