Global Evolution: I transplanted the heart of the Supreme God.

Chapter 1212 The Ring of Energy
"Rare treasures from a grotto?"

Bai Pu originally thought that Shi Le and the others would be very unwilling to accept his condition of demanding rare treasures from the cave.

Upon hearing this, Shi Le and the others showed expressions of relief.

As a woman, the Crimson Vine Domain Lord possessed natural social skills. She gracefully stepped forward and said with a smile, "Your Highness Steel Heart, you're collecting rare treasures from your grotto-heavens, presumably to raise the energy gathering limit of your grotto-heavens, right? We can help you raise the fire attribute of your grotto-heavens to the lower-level limit of 199 points, and then we can let bygones be bygones, shall we?"

Bai Pu understood.

For someone like Shi Le, who was promoted to prince very early, collecting rare treasures from lower-level grottoes was not difficult.

In particular, the Heart of Molten Core is primarily fire-attribute with earth-attribute as a secondary attribute, and it produces a great many fire-attribute treasures. Shi Le has occupied the dangerous Heart of Molten Core for so long that he has already pushed the upper limit of fire-attribute energy gathering in the cave to the limit of 199. He only needs one intermediate-level fire-attribute treasure to upgrade to an intermediate-level cave!

Moreover, Shi Le likely possessed a large number of unused lower-grade fire-type rare treasures.

This batch of lower-grade fire-type rare treasures can be exchanged with other Gaia princes, so it's perfectly acceptable to offer them as compensation now.

Bai Pu raised his hand, stopping the Red Vine Domain Lord's attempt to get closer.

He said calmly, "My Misty Palace Grotto-heaven does not have the fire attribute. First, I need to offer a mid-level fire-attribute treasure to add the fire attribute to the grotto-heaven."

"That's simple. You can do the same by sacrificing ten lower-grade rare treasures."

Few princes of Gaia would add attributes to a cave, but it's not particularly difficult to do so.

Bai Pu then added, "I don't just want fire-type rare treasures, I want earth-type ones too."

Upon hearing this, Lord Red Vine said with some difficulty, "Your Highness Steel Heart, the Heart of Molten Fire is a dangerous place, mainly based on fire attributes, and the number of earth attribute treasures is naturally small. Our Prince Shi Le's Molten Fire Palace has not even reached the limit of earth attributes, so we do not have any extra earth attribute treasures."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a beggar coming to your door asking for alms, just wanting your surplus items."

Bai Pu smiled slightly, "As long as you have it... just take all the earth-type treasures from the Molten Palace Cave Heaven and give them to me, isn't that enough?"

"This is robbery!" someone shouted.

"No, I am a law-abiding citizen who was attacked by robbers. I am now demanding reasonable compensation after acting in self-defense."

Bai Pu stood with his arms crossed. "Hurry up and decide, Shi Le. Otherwise, if I change my mind, you can forget about keeping this cave-heaven node."

Bai Pu stood there, his expression indifferent, yet he exuded a powerful aura that made Shi Le and the others breathless.

"give him!"

Shi Le said through gritted teeth.

He has collected a total of 26 lower-level earth-elemental rare treasures so far, which can increase the maximum energy gathering limit of earth-elemental caves by a total of 81 points.

With the loss of these 26 lower-level earth-elemental treasures, the speed at which the Molten Palace Cave Heaven is upgraded to a mid-level Cave Heaven will be significantly slowed down, wasting at least two or three months of progress.

However, the situation was urgent, and Shi Le had no other choice.

Just as the two sides reached an agreement, bubbles suddenly began to rise from the bottom of the lava lake.

A powerful energy surge gathered at the bottom of the magma lake.

"What is this?" Bai Pu asked curiously.

Shi Le and the others' expressions changed drastically.

"Quick, run! The lava fountain is about to erupt!"

The group immediately tried to escape, but due to Bai Pu's overwhelming power, their escape was very slow.

"Gangxin, I have agreed to your conditions. Let us leave now!" Shi Le shouted.

"I'll let you leave, but tell me what a lava fountain is?" Bai Pu asked.

"Lava fountains are eruptions of lava from the earth's veins. They are not inherently deadly, but such eruptions are usually accompanied by the appearance of monsters in the core area!"

Lord Crimson Vine said hastily, "The monsters in the core area are at least high-level lords, and they appear in groups. Worst of all, the Lord of Melting Hearts might also be patrolling, and that's a powerful veteran demon lord! If we don't leave now, it will be too late..."

Bai Pu withdrew his overwhelming power, and Shi Le and the others hurriedly fled.

A seasoned demon lord?

Bai Pu couldn't help but think of the "Blazing Beacon Demon Lord" he had fought on Red Luo Star.

Although Bai Pu was the victor in that battle, there is no doubt that Zhuofeng Demon Lord was incredibly strong, at least two levels stronger than Bai Pu.

The main reason Bai Pu was able to kill Zhuo Feng that time was because the injuries inflicted on him by Chunhe Wang were too severe, plus the support of several friends around him.

Now, Bai Pu has mastered the Myriad Manifestations Qi and the Strong First Grade Myriad Manifestations Power, and has even comprehended the Four Extremes Burst.

He really wanted to try and see if he could stand up to a true demon lord with undiminished strength.

Just tens of seconds after Shi Le and the others fled, as the bubbling magma bubbles became more and more dense, a magma fountain finally shot into the sky!

The lava surged against the dome, transforming into countless scorching hot raindrops that fell down.

During this grand entrance ceremony, one enormous figure after another emerged from the lava lake.

Bai Pu offered his insight.

Molten Core Colossus (Level 18)

[Race: Elemental/Aberrant]

[Attributes: Strength 1550, Agility 760, Stamina 1480, Spirit 500]

[Skill 1: Ring of Energy: Passive - The Molten Colossus draws power from the corpses of surrounding fire elementals to significantly restore its health and energy. If its health is full, the health restoration effect is converted into a shield value, and the energy restoration effect is converted into additional energy intensity.]

[Skill 2: Lava Giant Fist: The Molten Core Colossus unleashes a powerful punch, dealing massive damage and knocking back enemies in front of it.]

[Skills 3-6: ? ? ?]

This is the leading molten core colossus.

The other Molten Core Colossi that appeared simultaneously were slightly smaller and had lower stats than the first Molten Core Colossi.

"Both strength and stamina are high, around 1500 points..."

Hongxiao exclaimed in surprise, "The leading Molten Core Colossus must be a level 18 enhanced lord! The other colossi are also high-level lord templates, be careful!"

As the magma erupted, more fire elemental creatures and lava creatures burst forth from the geothermal fissures.

If the Molten Core Colossus is like a tank formation, then these elemental creatures that charge out are the infantry following the tank formation!

Both of them give the impression of being part of a military, highly organized.

With such a formidable force, it's no wonder Shi Le and his men were in a hurry to flee; they were truly no match for them!
However, Bai Pu rose to the challenge.

The grand scheme unfolded, clashing violently with the Molten Core Colossus's domain-suppressing ability, [Ring of Energy].

Under the explosive force of the four poles, the crimson light of the Energy Gathering Ring was forcibly suppressed by the overwhelming power of all things!

As for the other cannon fodder elemental creatures that charged in, they were almost completely incapacitated.

Bai Pu completely ignored these cannon fodder elemental creatures.

Killing these small monsters is effortless for him, but it will provide the Molten Core Colossus Lord with a continuous source of nourishment!

That would be tantamount to aiding the enemy.

Despite the relentless bombardment from the cannon fodder elemental creatures, Bai Pu took a step forward and stood directly in front of the Molten Core Colossus.

Facing the molten core colossus's raised molten fist, Bai Pu thrust out with his spear.

As a main tank and a violent warrior, Bai Pu's job is to engage in 1v1 pure manly combat.

when!
The sound waves triggered a sonic boom, and a ring of transparent air ripples spread out. The man and the giant statue, and the lava lake beneath their feet were all stirred up by the enormous air pressure, creating a spherical depression with a radius of tens of meters!
The violent shockwaves blasted outwards in all directions, breaking many of the hanging stalactites apart.

Both Bai Pu and the Molten Core Colossus shuddered simultaneously, with Bai Pu's body rapidly retreating. This attack had actually put Bai Pu at a disadvantage!
Bai Pu was somewhat surprised.

Now, [The Spider Queen's Vigilance] has been transformed into a one-star king-level purple equipment (medium-grade material), granting Bai Pu a large number of attribute bonuses, increasing from +30 to +50 to all attributes.

When Bai Pu uses the Panlong Stance, he will have a Strength rating of 1700+!
In theory, it should be able to exceed the 1550 strength of the Molten Core Colossus.

However, it is obvious that the Molten Core Colossus's skill [Molten Giant Fist] also has a powerful strength bonus, and its judgment value is probably close to 2000.

Fortunately, Bai Pu's Myriad Manifestations are more powerful than the [Gathering Energy Ring].

Relying on the speed boost granted by the Great Power of All Things, Bai Pu suddenly accelerated, quickly pushing off the air and rushing to the front of the Molten Core Colossus amidst a series of sonic booms.

The molten core colossus spread its five fingers, and fine magma threads wove from its fingertips, forming a magma energy net that attempted to envelop Bai Pu.

This is clearly a control skill that has not yet been detected.

However, Bai Pu used the acceleration of the Lotus Escape Technique to dodge the coverage of the energy net with two turns, and suddenly appeared to the side of the Molten Core Colossus, stabbing it in the neck joint with a spear.
-
211464!

This shot landed a critical hit, and the Myriad Manifestations Qi automatically switched to earth-attribute mixed damage. With the Mountain Collapse effect activated, large sections of the Molten Core Colossus's neck, shoulders, and solidified magma body were shattered and slid into the magma lake.

Although this level 18 enhanced lord had over two million health points, Bai Pu's shot still dealt damage equal to one-tenth of his health points.

The 55% armor and magic resistance penetration granted by the Myriad Manifestations Aura is indeed very powerful, allowing Bai Pu to deal considerable damage with every effective attack when facing enemies with high armor and high damage reduction.

Hongxiao watched in a daze. Clearly, this enhanced lord-level Molten Core Colossus was no match for Bai Pu. If it were a one-on-one fight, Bai Pu could kill it in just a few minutes.

However, this time there were several Molten Core Colossi. In addition to the leading enhanced lord, there were other lord-level colossi, which also launched attacks on Bai Pu.

Some opened their mouths wide, bombarding Bai Pu with beams of magma; others stretched out their enormous hands, using fire-based energy nets to capture him; still others activated earth-based gravity suppression skills, attempting to suppress Bai Pu's speed.

Under these circumstances, Hongxiao could only do her best. She released the Fire Silk to slow down the Molten Core Colossus's ranged attacks as much as possible, giving Bai Pu room to maneuver.

Bai Pu, relying on the high priority granted by the Four Extremes Burst and the speed of the Lotus Escape Technique, shuttled through the gaps between the Molten Core Colossi.

Whenever he saw an opening, Bai Pu would act decisively, his Doomsday Spear piercing through the colossus's body and shattering pieces of solidified magma.

Bai Pu deliberately focused his attacks on a giant statue in an attempt to cause casualties.

Finally, after five minutes of fierce fighting, one of the lord-level colossi collapsed with a crash.

The solid magma that makes up its body, having lost its energy source, transforms back into flowing magma and surges into the magma lake.

Bai Pu, quick-witted and agile, swiftly identified the energy core from the wreckage of the Lord-class colossus and retrieved it.

[Core of Molten Core: A rare treasure from a mid-level grotto-heaven, used to increase the energy gathering limit of a mid-level grotto-heaven by 23 points.]

The intermediate-level rare treasure that Shi Le and others spent months trying to obtain was now acquired by Bai Pu on his first exploration of the perilous Heart of Molten Core.

Shi Le and his men did not go far.

They hid and used methods such as fire-extinguishing insects to spy on others.

Seeing this, Shi Le and the others were filled with intense jealousy, which almost overflowed the screen through the perspective of the fire-extinguishing insect.

But what followed was a deep fear.

"Prince Gangxin is too terrifying... He probably didn't even use his full strength when he was dealing with Prince Shile."

"What should we do? We promised Prince Gangxin that we would give him all the earth-type treasures from the cave. Now it seems we can't go back on our word!"

The group, who had initially planned to renege on their debt, quickly changed their minds.

"We still have three years left on Prince Star. We can't afford to offend Prince Steelheart. Demolish it, it has to be demolished."

"As for the deficit in energy gathering capacity, we can make more trips to dangerous earth-attribute areas and collect rare earth-attribute treasures to make up for it. It will only take two or three months."

Hearing his subordinates address him as "Prince Steel Heart" in such a completely different tone than before, Shi Le felt a surge of resentment.

He wanted to reprimand his followers, but the words wouldn't come out.

The harsh reality was staring him in the face: as a fellow prince of Gaia, Steelheart was far stronger than him, and even his close followers unconsciously sided with the stronger one!
Suddenly, the insect master "Sangge," who was controlling the fire-extinguishing insects, let out a soft exclamation:
"No, His Highness Steelheart is in trouble."

Everyone connected with the mother fire-extinguishing insect using their mental energy to continue watching.

……

At this moment, after Bai Pu killed a Molten Colossus Lord, he found himself in danger.

This molten colossus, also an elemental creature, caused the leader of the molten colossus to be enhanced upon its death, immediately triggering the passive ability [Circle of Energy]!
His health was fully restored, and the solidified magma that had damaged his neck began to surge and repair itself.

It hadn't lost much energy to begin with, and it was completely replenished in one go. At the same time, the overflowing energy was transformed into additional energy intensity under the effect of the energy-gathering ring.

Specifically, the priority of Molten Colossus buffing the Lord has increased by 1 point!
The crimson, energy-gathering ring-like town, under the immense pressure of the Great Power of All Things - the Four Extremes Eruption, managed to carve out a small section of space. Although still at a disadvantage, the difference was no longer significant!

Other Lord-level Molten Colossi also possess the skill of Energy Ring, which restored a significant amount of health and improved their energy intensity.
