Spirit Nectar

Unbeknownst to what was happening back in the secret chamber, Ace stood on the edge of an open cave with molten rocks on its edges. After following Cyrus's lead, he met with a dead end in the tunnel.

However, the little guy simply spit his flames and melted, opening a pathway for him that would've taken miners like Kai hundreds of years to open. Furthermore, Ace discovered that the Spirit Stones wouldn't burn to ashes with Cyrus's spirit fire; instead, they became more refined into small beads and dropped on the floor.

Moreover, these refined Spirit Stones seemed to carry even more Qi, so Ace didn't hesitate to collect them all while the little guy seemed to be more focused on whatever he was sensing.

Hence, they reached this place, and Ace was startled when he saw what was on the other side. His heart palpitated. It was a huge cavern filled with chunks of glowing Spirit Stones, even taller than Ace's height.
