The battle for the throne in Kowloon starts with the steady prince

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, and Qin Changliu began searching for the last source of fire. Because they had released many paper puppets, finding the source of fire was not difficult.

Qin Changge and his two companions quickly located the source of fire, which was a volcano.

Qin Changle asked, "Does this place contain the source of fire?"

Qin Changge nodded and said, "That's right. According to the message from the paper puppet, there should be Azure Lotus Earth Fire in this place."

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu looked around, trying to find traces of the Azure Lotus Earth Fire.

Without hesitation, Qin Changge activated his domain and discovered the flickering blue flames in the very center of the crater. Qin Changge said, "It's right there. Let's go over there."

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu followed without hesitation.

However, when Qin Changge and his two companions arrived at the crater, they discovered that the Azure Lotus Earth Fire had vanished.

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu looked at Qin Changge with some hesitation.

Qin Changle said, "Where's the Azure Lotus Earth Fire? Could it be that Sixth Brother misjudged it?"

Qin Changge shook his head and said, "Impossible. I clearly sensed that the Azure Lotus Earth Fire was right here in this volcano."

Qin Changle activated his Overlord Domain and then said, "Let me sense it."

Immediately afterwards, Qin Changle said with a strange expression, "The Azure Lotus Earth Fire is clearly on that thin stream of flames at the foot of the volcano."

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, and Qin Changliu all hesitated.

Qin Changge thought for a moment and said, "You all stay here and guard this place. I'll use my Heavenly Shadow Nine Flash ability to go and take a look."

Immediately afterwards, Qin Changge used the spatial ability of the Nine Flashes of Heavenly Shadow to arrive at the fiery stream at the foot of the volcano, where a cluster of blue flames swayed gracefully.

However, in the blink of an eye, the Azure Lotus Earth Fire vanished.

Qin Changge took a deep breath, a look of understanding flashing in his eyes. Just as he suspected.

Qin Changge flashed and returned to Qin Changle and Qin Changliu's side.

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu both looked at Qin Changge eagerly: "Did you find it?"

Qin Changge shook his head and explained, "This Azure Lotus Earth Fire can flow freely in the magma. As soon as I arrived, it disappeared and went to other places."

Upon hearing this, both Qin Changle and Qin Changliu frowned.

Qin Changle said, "We don't know how much magma is inside this volcano, so doesn't that mean it's incredibly difficult for us to catch the Azure Lotus Earth Fire?"

Qin Changge and Qin Changliu also frowned and pondered.

At this moment, Qin Changge smiled and said, "If we can't catch it, then we can only let it walk into our trap."

Upon hearing this, both Qin Changle and Qin Changliu rolled their eyes. Was this a joke?
A treasure of the Azure Lotus Earth Fire's caliber can escape on its own, which means it basically has sentience. Why would it walk right into a trap?

Qin Changge smiled and said, "Come with me."

Immediately afterwards, Qin Changge led Qin Changle and Qin Changliu to an open space, where he openly set up a trapping formation.

This scene left Qin Changle and Qin Changliu speechless.

Qin Changle said, "If you're going to set a trap, at least hide it a little. Who would fall into it if you set a trap so openly?"

Qin Changge said calmly, "You'll find out soon enough."

Immediately afterwards, Qin Changge took out a type of charcoal fire from his storage ring and placed it on the trap formation.

Upon seeing this, Qin Changliu and Qin Changle were both somewhat surprised: "This is a rare and precious material, I think it's called something like charcoal."

Qin Changge explained, "It's called 'Unknown Charcoal,' and this charcoal is extremely attractive to flames."

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu suddenly realized that the bait was so tempting that it was no wonder Qin Changge was confident in luring out the Azure Lotus Earth Fire.

Qin Changge said, "Let's hide now."

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, and Qin Changliu hid in the shadows and looked at the trapped Wuming Charcoal, wanting to see if the Azure Lotus Earth Fire would take the bait.

As expected, the attraction of the charcoal to the flames was astonishing. In just a moment, a cluster of blue flames leaped into the trap.

Without hesitation, Qin Changge formed a hand seal, and the trapping formation transformed into an unbreakable cage.

It's impossible for the Azure Lotus Earth Fire to escape the trap.

At this moment, the Azure Lotus Earth Fire had already consumed the Unknown Charcoal, and the flames immediately burned even more fiercely.

Qin Changge, Qin Changliu, and Qin Changle came out and looked at the blazing flames.

Qin Changge nodded: "This is the origin of fire, the Azure Lotus Earth Fire."

Qin Changle said, "How do we collect it? By using water-related abilities."

Qin Changge took out a talisman and instantly unleashed a water attack, targeting the Azure Lotus Earth Fire. The Azure Lotus Earth Fire extinguished instantly upon encountering the water.

Seeing this, Qin Changle and Qin Changliu looked at Qin Changge.

Qin Changle stared wide-eyed and said, "Sixth Brother, what are you doing?"

Qin Changliu asked in astonishment, "If you extinguish the fire, won't the source of the fire be gone?"

Qin Changge looked at the talisman, then at the Azure Lotus Earth Fire, and stared blankly, saying, "This... I didn't expect it to be so fragile."

Qin Changge truly hadn't expected that the Azure Lotus Earth Fire would be extinguished so easily by simply splashing water.

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu both rolled their eyes: "Alright, all that work for nothing. Let's go look somewhere else."

Qin Changge sighed and said, "It seems that's the only way."

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, and Qin Changliu left the place.

The next moment, a cluster of blue flames reignited on the pile of charcoal, dancing in the air.

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, and Qin Changliu suddenly appeared.

Qin Changle said, "Just as I thought, this guy was faking his death."

Qin Changliu said with great emotion, "It's just a flame, yet it possesses such high intelligence, practically indistinguishable from a human."

Qin Changge said, "These can be called special life forms. They are no different from humans; they both possess intelligence."

Qin Changge was very confident in his talisman. It was just a low-level water-controlling talisman, how could it possibly kill the innate spiritual fire?

So Qin Changge tried to trick it, and sure enough, the Azure Lotus Earth Fire was pretending to be dead, but it was no use. The trapping formation hadn't been opened, so the Azure Lotus Earth Fire couldn't escape.

Qin Changge was about to take out the Water Control Talisman to subdue the Azure Lotus Earth Fire again when, unexpectedly, the Azure Lotus Earth Fire burned away the trapping formation in an instant and then disappeared underground.

At this moment, the area fell silent.

Qin Changliu and Qin Changle looked at Qin Changge.

Qin Changle said, "Sixth Brother, what's your backup plan? Hurry up and find it."

Qin Changliu said matter-of-factly, "Sixth Brother is so cautious, he must have thought of this long ago. In the end, this Azure Lotus Earth Fire is just a waste of effort."

Qin Changge remained silent for a moment.

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu both sensed that something was wrong.

Qin Changle asked incredulously, "Sixth Brother, you didn't use any other methods, did you?"

Qin Changge said speechlessly, "Didn't you see what I just did?"

Qin Changliu said incredulously, "So, the Azure Lotus Earth Fire escaped right in front of you, Sixth Brother?"

Qin Changge took a deep breath and said, "Not bad."

At this moment, Qin Changle and Qin Changliu were both speechless. The Azure Lotus Earth Fire had actually escaped, and all their efforts had been in vain.

Qin Changge pondered for a moment and said, "The power of this Azure Lotus Earth Fire is quite strong. My trapping formation can't hold it. In that case, it's basically impossible for us to subdue this Azure Lotus Earth Fire."

Qin Changge said, "We can only temporarily give up the Azure Lotus Earth Fire and see if there are any other sources of fire in the world of the third level of the Tower of Babel."

Qin Changle and Qin Changliu felt somewhat incredulous; the Azure Lotus Earth Fire was already right in front of them, yet they were unable to collect it.

Qin Changge said, "The main problem is that the opponent comes and goes without a trace, making it very difficult to catch. Our trapping formation can't hold it back, so there's nothing we can do."

……

Qin Changge decisively abandoned the Azure Lotus Earth Fire, and then took Qin Changle and Qin Changliu to other places to search for the source of fire.

Unfortunately, after searching for most of the day, they still couldn't find the source of fire.

Qin Changle suggested, "Why don't we go and capture that Azure Lotus Earth Fire?"

Qin Changge sighed and said, "That's all we can do."

Qin Changge, Qin Changle, and Qin Changliu returned to the volcano and discovered that the cultivator Wu Wudi had already collected the Azure Lotus Earth Fire.

The four of them looked at each other.

Without hesitation, Wu Wudi turned and ran.

How could Qin Changge let Wu Wudi escape?
