"This demon core is different." Chu Miao said while picking up the extremely hot core.
"It's so hot. Why is that?" Chu Hao asked his sister, looking at the demon core like it was some kind of a magical item.
"It contains… extremely pure fire energy."
"Can we absorb it?" Chu Hao asked immediately.
"Not directly. If you absorb it directly, it would burn all your meridians away. The energy within it is too violent." Ye Xuan replied to his brother-in-law.
"Then…?" Gu Fan asked with curiosity.
"It can be refined…" Chu Miao explained in a few words.
"Refined how?" Li Han asked seriously.
Chu Miao's eyes gleamed as she looked at the demon core.
"This might be the key to surviving deeper into the desert."
The group exchanged glances, excitement flickering in their eyes.
There might be immense danger in this place, but the rewards were equally great.
Chu Miao stored the demon core away and looked into the distance.
The desert stretched so far there was no end in sight.
