The next morning, after closing the door, Li Xiaobai summoned a wisp of Hellfire.
Then, with extreme caution, he took out a Mermaid's Essence from the Eastern Sea. It was one of the six he had found in Long Xue's boudoir, and the smallest. Li Xiaobai decided to test the waters with this Luminous Pearl first.
He gently tossed the Eastern Sea Mermaid's Essence into the pitch-black, ink-like flames.
The numbers on the System panel suddenly jumped.
[Hellfire... Current coverage area 1.1 kilometers... (Mahayana Realm)]
After a brief wait, there was no further development.
Li Xiaobai's brows slightly furrowed. Could it be that this Eastern Sea Mermaid's Essence could only increase the coverage by a mere point one kilometer?
Had Hellfire become so greedy? Just a dab of effect from one Eastern Sea Mermaid's Essence, though still significantly better compared to throwing in a huge amount of resources previously without any reaction.
