Fake Origin Alloy?

Mention of the Source Material inevitably ties to the Star Soul, especially the Source Steel Block Li Ang obtained previously from the Dark Night Ancient City Secret Box, which was directly stated by the system to be crafted by the Divine People.

This so-called imitation alloy should be the Isle of Casting's replica of refined Source Steel Block.

Considering this facility was hidden by the Divine People, could it be that the Divine People aren't merely latecomers but directly related to the Islanders?

Li Ang stopped pondering, saying, "It seems like they hurriedly evacuated. These golems are well-preserved, and the energy sources have been removed, considered useful materials to take away."

"How do you know? Are you now perceiving spirituality so quickly?"

"It's not perception, but directly seeing the Spiritual Lines."

Xiaomo looked at Li Ang in surprise. In his eyes, this old friend stood simply, yet his strange magic flowed through his eyes, as if he could see everything clearly.

When he looked at him, Xiaomo couldn't help but want to retreat.

"Can you even see my Shadow Talent?"

"Indeed, I can see a layer of shadow's spirituality, they are bound to your heart——"

"Alright, alright, let people keep some secrets, it seems you've truly found the direction for the witch's advancement."

"Not completely found," Li Ang raised his arm, "We'll have to wait till this problem is resolved to say."

Li Ang tore open the Dimensional Rift, storing the collapsed golem inside, prompting Xiaomo to inquire about the Demon's Hand situation. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

While clearing the way, Li Ang explained the situation with the Crimson Demon briefly to Xiaomo.

"Is this Demon's Hand the result of temporary handling post-curse? Sounds tragic, but somehow seems you gain quite a lot of advantages?"

Seeing him casting easily, Xiaomo couldn't grasp Li Ang's state.

Not just him, even Li Ang himself wondered if going to the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits later to solve the curse might actually weaken him.

"Do you have more questions?"

Li Ang stopped when Morales hesitated after asking.

"Would your life be affected?"

"It's alright, pretty normal."

Li Ang clenched his palm.

"Are you really okay? Those spikes won't scratch your beauties' tender skin?"

"...Indeed, can't expect you to be serious."

Li Ang was speechless, yet the Beast-Earkin youth laughed: "Gosh, it's merely teasing to comfort you."

"Keep walking."

"Sigh, previously when asked why not look for girls you had this attitude, now finding someone also this attitude, odd huh."

The waiting Akuya water clone withdrew its gaze from Li Ang, continuing forward.

The collapsing mechanical array seemingly endless, extending into the deep, towering corridors seemingly built for giants. Firelight is near, and the high temperature substantially surrounds the vicinity.

"Isn't it a bit too hot?"

Xiaomo fanned strongly, inherently heat-prone Beast-Earkin faced heat exposure, the rear fully ventilated, still couldn't endure the present temperature.

Li Ang observed Akuya, whose water clone gradually evaporated.

After all, this clone, merely a human form avatar released by an Excellence Realm, couldn't withstand the high temperature here.

Viewed spiritually, the fire elemental spirit concentration abruptly surged, intermixed with portions of earth element.

"If the fire elemental spirit continues to increase, it'll surpass any danger zone I've ever witnessed." Li Ang said.

"Did the Soul Apex later battle in the flame environment of the Demon Disaster Realm?" Xiaomo asked.

"Once fought, it was the volcanic environment layer of the Reverse Abyss Tower."

"There, huh? During the Super Lucky Team's visit, I just made an excuse not to go."

"That was indeed smart of you."

Xiaomo chuckled, Li Ang noted his sweat-drenched face.

"But, if you claim here will surpass there, it's not... I don't doubt you, just hard to imagine."

No explanation needed from Li Ang, the heat waves ahead grew more intense.

Li Ang opened his mouth, wanting to ask Akuya the situation here, whether to continue venturing deeper? It felt like nearing the center of a live volcanic crater.

But before speaking, he saw steam hissing from Akuya's water clone's footsteps, the manifested shoes unable to sustain, evaporating into steam.

The ground was immensely scorching.

"Keep going, won't it soften the ground?" Xiaomo drooped his ears remarking.

The Islanders presumably wouldn't melt their facility's ground, they must have some means, or possibly their race naturally manages high temperatures.

Li Ang retrieved a Water Crystal, tossing it out, through Spiritual Manipulation and Material Magic Scripture casting jointly, a stream of pure magic water was summoned out of thin air, its flow not quite smooth, yet the tier of magic prevented immediate evaporation by the surrounding heat.

This stream essentially is an Elemental Summoning, yet he didn't form it into human shape, instead creating a water curtain shielding the three.

"Ah, saved!"

Xiaomo reached to touch the water curtain, while in this environment, pure magic water had already turned to lukewarm water by the surrounding heat, yet far better than facing directly scorching air.

Li Ang glanced at Akuya, with the water curtain, her clone remained much more stable, yet he pondered asking her for ideas on continuing this journey, even though temporarily by casting materials summoning water to resist, couldn't endure for long.
