Survival in the Mist: From a Dilapidated Wooden Hut to a Heavenly Palace in the Clouds

Chapter 331 Song Yufei's Telegram

A ruthless glint flashed in Mo Ming's eyes. His divine sense suddenly trembled, transforming into countless tiny threads of light that rapidly seeped into the interior of the Purgatory Flame.

"Chi chi chi——"

The infernal flames emitted a piercing sound, as if they were struggling violently.

Its flames continued to expand, attempting to completely incinerate Mo Ming's consciousness. However, Mo Ming's consciousness clung to it like a maggot, unable to break free no matter how it struggled.

Time passed slowly, and Mo Ming's face gradually turned pale, sweat streaming down his face. His consciousness had been riddled with holes by the infernal flames, but his will remained unwavering.

"Suppress it!" Mo Ming roared, and the runes on the Bronze Refining Heaven Cauldron suddenly lit up, unleashing a powerful force that completely suppressed the Hellfire.

"Om-"

The light of the Purgatory Flame suddenly dimmed, and the flames began to slowly shrink, eventually transforming into a fist-sized fire seed that quietly floated in the center of the Bronze Refining Heaven Cauldron.

Mo Ming breathed a sigh of relief, a tired smile appearing on his face: "Finally, I succeeded..."

He slowly opened his eyes, raised his hand, and the ball of purgatory fire flew out from the bronze cauldron and landed in his palm.

At this moment, the infernal flames were no longer raging, but were pulsating quietly, completely under his control.

"Hellfire, you little brat, who do you think you are?" Mo Ming felt the flames in his hand, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes. From this moment on, his strength would reach a whole new level.

Beep beep!

Before Mo Ming could even get excited for a few seconds, the bracelet suddenly gave a message notification.

"Hmm? Song Xiaoniu'er?"

Mo Ming answered the call with a hint of doubt.

"Hey? Hey little girl, what's up? Missed me?" Mo Ming couldn't be serious when he was around Song Yufei.

A slightly exasperated voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mo Ming, can you be serious for once? I have something important to discuss with you!"

Mo Ming smirked, his tone still nonchalant: "Serious business? I thought you'd finally come to your senses and were planning to confess your feelings. Little girl, you're in such a hurry to find me, have you finally realized you can't live without me?"

Song Yufei snorted lightly, with a hint of mockery: "Mo Ming, if you keep talking like that, believe me, I'll fly over and bite you to death right now."

Mo Ming immediately changed his tone, pretending to be serious, and said, "Captain Song, please tell me what you need. I will go through fire and water for you!"

Upon hearing this, Song Yufei on the other end of the phone couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Alright, stop pretending. There's something I want to discuss with you. A few days ago, while I was on patrol, I discovered a very special pond."

"A pool?" Mo Ming was slightly taken aback, then teased, "Little girl, you don't mean to drag me to soak in the water, do you? Let me tell you, when I soak in the water, my figure is so perfect that no one can take their eyes off me, so you'd better be prepared."

Song Yufei was both amused and exasperated by his words: "Can you be serious for once? This pool is no ordinary pool! I suspect there's something hidden inside, maybe some kind of treasure or a spirit beast's lair."

Upon hearing the words "secret treasure," Mo Ming's interest was immediately piqued. He abandoned his teasing tone and asked seriously, "Oh? What's so special about this pool?"

Seeing that he had finally become more serious, Song Yufei continued, "That pool is located deep in the Spirit Beast Forest in the south of my territory. The surrounding spiritual energy is very rich, and strange light patterns often appear on the surface of the water."

After observing for a while, I discovered that the light patterns seemed to be remnants of some kind of array.

"An array?" A glint of light flashed in Mo Ming's eyes. "That place certainly doesn't seem simple. Have you gone inside to investigate?"

“No.” Song Yufei’s tone became serious. “I only got a little closer and I felt a strong sense of pressure, like some kind of barrier protecting the pool.”

I was worried that venturing in rashly might cause some danger, so I didn't go any further.

"Yes, being cautious is the right thing to do."

Mo Ming stroked his chin, pondering to himself.

This pool does sound extraordinary, especially considering the array formations and the rich spiritual energy of the environment. It may very well be hiding some kind of secret treasure or a powerful spirit beast.

Based on past experience, although the dangers are considerable, the corresponding opportunities are not simple either.

"Alright, since you've asked, I'll reluctantly go with you." Mo Ming's tone was teasing, then he added, "But we'll split the spoils fifty-fifty."

"Deal!" Song Yufei's tone carried a hint of helplessness, but she was clearly used to Mo Ming's personality. Don't let his often unserious behavior fool you; when it comes to interests, he never suffers a loss.

"Okay." Mo Ming smiled and then asked, "When do we leave?"

"The sooner the better," Song Yufei said. "I'm worried that the strange phenomenon at that pool will attract people from other forces, and it would be troublesome if they beat us to it."

“Okay, then wait for me for half an hour. I’ll get ready and come find you.” Mo Ming readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Mo Ming looked at the Hellfire in his hand and smiled slightly: "It seems that this ball of fire that I just refined will have a good chance to test its power."

He stood up, retrieved the Purgatory Flame and the Bronze Heaven-Refining Cauldron into his spiritual sea, then clapped his hands and turned to walk towards the shelter.

"A hidden treasure in the pool? I wonder what surprises await us this time..." Mo Ming muttered to himself, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

Without further ado, Mo Ming handed the rare ore to Duo Duo, asking her to try refining the rare metal. After giving instructions to the squad leaders, he stepped into the teleportation array.

With a flash of white light, Mo Ming, along with the shrunken Fierce Rock Rhinoceros and the two bears, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, instantly appeared in Song Yufei's shelter.

Song Yufei was standing at the entrance of the shelter when she saw Mo Ming appear. She frowned slightly and said, "Why are you so late? Didn't you say half an hour? I thought you were going to stand me up."

Mo Ming shrugged, feigning innocence, and said, "I arrived right on time. Why is the teleportation array so far away?"

"Bear Big and Bear Two are as cute as ever. Is this little rhinoceros your pet?" Song Yufei looked at the chubby little guys next to Mo Ming, and her girlish heart was overflowing.

"Isn't it cute! Doesn't it even know who its owner is?!"

Song Yufei was too lazy to argue with him, so she turned around and walked into the shelter: "Tch, come with me."

Mo Ming shrugged, put his hands in his pockets, and leisurely followed. As he walked, he looked around, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "Not bad, little girl, this shelter is pretty decent, and you're developing well!"

"Oh, to receive such affirmation from Island Master Mo, I am truly flattered!" Song Yufei said without turning her head.

"hehe!"
