The crowd passed through multiple arrays and finally arrived deep within Flame Mountain. Ahead lay a pool of molten lava, its rolling waves exuding a scorching aura.
Within that lava, nine lotus flowers were blooming quietly. Each one was like a cluster of azure flame, pulsing with a destructive aura.
Everyone was stupefied.
"Heavens! What's going on?"
"Nine azure lotuses!"
"Could they all be the Azure Lotus Core Flames?"
Madness. At that moment, everyone went wild. The prodigies in the first echelon were incredibly excited. Honestly, if there had been only one Azure Lotus Core Flame, they would have had to compete fiercely amongst themselves. But now, the pressure of competition would be far less. It was even possible that each of them could get one.
But were there really nine? Utterly puzzled, they all looked toward the young Celestial King.
