Chapter 702 - 498: Heartfire Refining True Gold
At this moment, Li Yi was hiding inside the grotto heaven of the Purple Gold Gourd. Although he was already screened from the outside world, he could still infer some situations outside through the condition of the Purple Gold Gourd. Initially, the situation was indeed perilous, as the temperature inside the small world of the grotto heaven rose sharply.
But as the temperature later receded, he let out a sigh of relief.
As long as the Purple Gold Gourd didn’t melt, he would be fine; otherwise, if he were exposed again, he would truly have no escape.
About an hour passed.
Outside, there was still no movement, and everything seemed to have returned to normal.
However, Li Yi still did not hurry to leave. He wanted to wait for the dragon to sleep again, and also needed to let the tree spirit of the Golden Apple Tree be sure he had been melted by dragon flames. Only then could he find a chance to escape.
"Might as well wait a few more days to see. After all, I’ve already picked a Golden Apple, and the goal this time is complete. I have plenty of time to slowly wear down the outside dragon and the tree spirit." Li Yi was very cautious, so he simply settled in the Purple Gold Gourd. He had plenty of supplies on hand and didn’t worry about food and drink.
At this time, he took out a Golden Apple from the Five Elements Bracelet.
It felt heavy in his hand, truly like it was cast from gold, and it exuded an irresistible enticing fragrance that made one eager to take a bite and taste what it was like.
