Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 250 Earthfire Heart Lotus and Earthfire Crystal
The Earthfire Heart Lotus, a special spiritual plant that only grows in magma, has always been extremely rare.

The lotus seeds of the Earthfire Heart Lotus are special spiritual plants that can promote the advancement of fire-type companion spirits, and are also one of the medicinal materials that can be used to refine fire-type energy gene correction potions.

These seven Earthfire Heart Lotus plants have all produced mature lotus seeds, and judging from their appearance, these medicinal plants are of very good quality.

Besides the Earth Fire Lotus, the densely packed Earth Fire Crystals are also extremely rare. The Earth Fire Crystals contain powerful Earth Fire energy. These Earth Fire Crystals, each only the size of a fist, were gradually formed under the immense pressure of the Earth's core and the repeated scorching of magma. It is unknown how many years they have been buried underground before they have become these crystal-clear Earth Fire Crystals.

This size of earthfire crystal is lightweight and small in volume, yet it contains enormous energy, making it perfect as a power source for individual weapons. Individual weapons equipped with earthfire crystals are no less lethal than large-scale weapons like energy cannons.

Furthermore, the Earthfire Crystal can be installed on the mech's built-in weapons, and a single Earthfire Crystal can greatly increase the mech's lethality.

In short, Earth Fire Crystal is a high-end energy source that is extremely scarce and precious, and yet there are so many of them here.

Lin Mo watched Ning Xuan fly to the center of the pit and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He mobilized his bloodline energy to form a protective shield under his feet and walked along the edge of the pit towards Ning Xuan.

"Hiss, it's so hot." Even through a protective shield, Lin Mo could feel the heat wave on the soles of his feet that could almost melt flesh.

Lan Xin and the little fox stood on the outside, looking up at Ning Xuan with concern.

Only Di Youlin and Qinghe were unafraid of the heat of the lava. Di Youlin flapped its wings and flew to Ning Xuan's side. "Master, I'm going to collect earth fire crystals for you. Do you want to come on my back?" Di Youlin had already plucked out the few corroded feathers. Fortunately, it had a lot of feathers, so plucking a few didn't show anything on the outside.

Qinghe has entered the pit to collect the Earth Fire Crystal, and Yunhan is with Qinghe.

The flying disc beneath Ning Xuan's feet was made of transparent flying elephant ant wings, making it completely invisible. Therefore, when Ning Xuan hovered in the air on the flying disc, it was as if she were hovering by her own ability, which greatly surprised Tang Xue and the others about Ning Xuan's strength.

Normally, only spirit controllers who reach the SSS level of mental power can briefly remain airborne. Di Youlin can fly because he has wings.

"No need, just focus on collecting the Earth Fire Crystal Stones, I'll be fine," Ning Xuan replied, knowing that Di Youlin was worried about her safety.

Ning Xuan stepped onto the flying disc and entered the pit. With a wave of her hand, she suddenly released hundreds of vines. Each vine had three branches at the top, which she used to pry into the gaps between the crystals like forks. Then, with a tug, she harvested the Earth Fire Crystal.

Yun Han, Qing He, and Di Youlin watched as the vines released by Ning Xuan rapidly harvested the earth fire crystals, and the three of them were all somewhat amazed.

These vines are surprisingly good at mining.

The last three also plunged into the intense mining work.

As for the others, after confirming that there was no danger in the pit, they equipped themselves with heat-resistant clothing and other such items, and bravely entered the pit to mine the fire crystals.

Although the forest covered a vast area, apart from the giant magma python, there were no other large beasts. Ning Xuan and her companions mined magma crystals while exploring the surrounding area, completing both the mining and exploration in just three days. After storing all the magma crystals in their spatial artifacts, the temperature of this lava field dropped.

The large pit formed by digging for the fire crystals became their temporary shelter.

Three days later, they continued their journey deeper into the dark forest.

The dark forest deeper inside was not much different from the one they had just walked through. It also contained trees that could spray poisonous mist, black fault spaces that appeared for some unknown reason, and strange beasts that lurked in the darkness and could ambush them at any time.

Crossing the dark forest and arriving at the normal area not shrouded in darkness also harbored dangers. The assassination attempt she encountered there, which was no less powerful than the giant magma python, still left her with lingering fear of the battle.

Ning Xuan looked at the map in her hand and compared it with the one on the table.

These two maps, one drawn by Lan Xin and the other by Zhang Nan, although their styles differ, are both accurate in their depictions of the events that occurred during the process.

"Master, are you tired? You're amazing! You must have mined half of the crystals underground." Lin Mo, wearing a heat-resistant suit, came to Ning Xuan's side and said solicitously.

His mecha is only equipped with third-class energy, while the Earth Fire Crystal is a super energy source. If Ning Xuan were to share some of the crystal with him, the mecha's destructive power would immediately increase.

"Speak your mind, or don't force yourself to say something you don't have." Ning Xuan knew what Lin Mo was planning as soon as she saw him staring at the ring containing the Earth Fire Crystal without blinking.

"These are Earth Fire Crystals. You'll get some later. Go get to work." Ning Xuan waved her hand.

It took a full twenty-seven days to explore this dark forest. Although it was a long time, Ning Xuan and her team successfully completed the drawing of the dark forest map and also gained many valuable items.

Ning Xuan glanced at the countdown on the locator. There were still twenty-three days left until the end of the assessment. Before the assessment ended, she needed to upload the map of the Dark Forest to the terminal, accumulate merit points, and sell the exotic beast materials she had collected to exchange for supplies.

The closest safe zone to the Dark Forest is Safe Zone 13.

"Master, we've finally finished the mission. We'll probably be heading back soon. Why don't I take you on one last flight so you can see the world?" Di Youlin said to Ning Xuan. Di Youlin also wanted to further cultivate Ning Xuan's favor before returning.

Although Ning Xuan's frisbee allows her to stay airborne and fly briefly, she cannot fly for extended periods or at high altitudes.

Thinking of the beautiful scenery she had seen high in the sky, Ning Xuan felt a sense of longing.

Just as Ning Xuan was hesitating, the locator in her hand suddenly beeped, and a holographic projection automatically unfolded.

A dark red totem appeared marking the location of the reception area, and countless points of light lit up simultaneously, projecting a huge three-dimensional star map onto the reception area. The location indicated by the star map was the coordinate of the rendezvous point after this assessment.
