Staring at the now damaged patch of rock, Victor knew attempting to forcibly touch such a high tier natural flame with a First Tier body was clearly not a wise decision.
However, he did not retreat because of this.
He could sense that as the flame continued expanding, the flow of fire elements throughout the surroundings was undergoing a noticeable change.
The energy originally scattered throughout the cavern seemed to be drawn by some invisible force, converging toward the center along the dark golden patterns on the rock walls.
At the places where those patterns were most concentrated, faint strands of golden light could even be seen.
"These patterns..." Victor shifted his attention toward the lower section of the cavern.
With the help of his High Level Fire Element Affinity, he quickly discovered that the dark golden patterns were not merely mineral traces.
Instead, they were natural energy channels formed through prolonged exposure to concentrated fire elements.
