Chapter 103 Qinglian Earth Core Fire
In the dark and deep passage, three streams of light of different colors were traveling through it at an extremely fast speed.
As they went deeper, the cool feeling underground completely dissipated, and was replaced by a scorching heat. Even the energy of heaven and earth was transformed into fire energy. Even the earth energy contained in the ground was suppressed by this fire energy and was almost imperceptible.
Hai Bodong's fighting spirit was of ice attribute, so he was naturally very sensitive to fire energy. Noticing the rising temperature around him, he couldn't help but say, "The fire energy here is too strong!"
"This place is indeed abnormal. This is not the deepest part, but the fire attribute energy is already so high. Maybe there is the strange fire you want down there."
Cai Lin glanced at Yao Yan who was leading the way, and a hint of anticipation appeared in her cold eyes, because she had only heard of the strange fire, a rare thing born from heaven and earth, but had never seen it. Now that she had the chance to see it with her own eyes, how could she not be excited? You know, Queen Medusa's family has a secret method to advance through the strange fire.
If she really finds the strange fire this time, she might be able to borrow the fire from Yao Yan in the future to transform her own bloodline!
"Coming."
Yao Yan chuckled when he heard this, his eyes became burning, and his speed also increased a bit. Ever since he practiced the Burning Technique and successfully swallowed the Phantom Gold Fire through it, he is now full of desire for these powerful flames and strange fires.
Once he successfully devours the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, not only will the Burning Technique be advanced, but his strength will also increase by leaps and bounds. Moreover, when he meets Hunxuzi in the future, he will have an excuse to ask him to help him plan the strange fire!
If the Burning Decree was just a martial art, it would be like chicken ribs and worthless to people like Hunxuzi.
But if Yaoyan can successfully practice the Burning Technique and successfully devour several kinds of strange fire, then its significance will be very different!
As time passed, the three of them soon came to a world of flames.
A huge cave appeared before our eyes, with fiery red magma flowing slowly inside it. Huge bubbles emerged from time to time, and then suddenly burst open, accompanied by the scorching magma spurting out, emitting a hot breath, and rich fire energy filling this small world.
At this moment, Yao Yan felt that the Burning Decree in his body was affected by the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth, and its speed became faster. Just like humans seeing delicious food, the Burning Decree seemed to have sensed the "delicious food" that was so close.
"Strange fire..."
Yao Yan felt the desire in his body and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. You know, when he swallowed the Phantom Golden Fire, there had never been such changes in his body. Perhaps he sensed the breath of the strange fire, and every cell in his body was cheering at this moment.
Cai Lin and Hai Bodong are both powerful Dou Huangs. With their physical fitness and fighting spirit, they naturally don’t need to worry about the high temperature around them.
"There's no way out. It seems that the strange fire you're looking for may be in the magma."
Cai Lin's cold eyes swept across the entire scene. After a moment, she looked at the red magma below and spoke in a slightly concentrated voice.
Yao Yan stared at the magma and said slowly: "The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire... It is a strange fire bred in the magma. It was born deep in the earth. It has been tempered, fused, compressed, and carved countless times by the fire of the earth. It took ten years to become a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to become a lotus!"
"Just go down and take a look and you'll find out."
Hai Bodong was also full of curiosity about the Qinglian Earth Core Fire. After all, he had only heard of strange fires but had never seen the real thing. It was said that when strange fire appeared, all other fires would submit. He really wanted to see this strange thing born from heaven and earth. At this moment, he seemed to have regained the feeling of adventure when he was young.
"Let's go."
Yao Yan smiled, and phantom golden fire appeared around him, enveloping his entire body. He then turned into a stream of light and sank into the magma.
Cai Lin and Hai Bodong followed closely behind.
The hot magma at this moment is no different from a hot spring.
However, not long after the three of them submerged in the magma, a huge mysterious creature rushed towards them. As it rushed over, Queen Medusa snorted coldly, and a giant purple snake appeared behind it. Its cold snake eyes stared at them, causing the other party to pause, and for a moment it did not dare to get any closer.
At the same time, it also allowed the three of them to see its appearance clearly.
This is a snake-like monster with an extremely long body. At a rough glance, it is probably at least four or five meters long. It is fiery red all over and seems to be merging with the magma. From a distance, it looks like a round piece of fire jade. On the surface of its body, palm-sized red scales are densely covered. It also has two heads. At the fork of its long neck, there are two ferocious heads, staring with huge diamond-shaped pupils, glaring at Yao Yan and others.
"Level 4 monster?"
Although Hai Bodong could not recognize the other party's species, he could still clearly feel the life breath of a fourth-level magical beast.
Two-headed fire spirit snake... Yao Yan looked at the magic beast in front of him, whispered in his heart, and called out the other's name. He also didn't know much about magic beasts, but the magic beast in front of him had a detailed introduction in the original book. It was a very special magic beast that fed on magma. It was born as a first-level magic beast. If there were enough opportunities, it could enter the sixth level.
"Sigh~"
The two-headed fire snake flickered its tongue, and its huge eyes showed a hint of struggle, trying to resist the pressure from Queen Medusa.
Cai Lin's companion soul is the Purple Nether Flame Snake, an alien species that contains the blood of ancient exotic beasts. It has a natural blood suppression on snake-like monsters. What's more, the Two-headed Fire Spirit Snake is only at the fourth level, so how can it resist her pressure? When the snake shadow behind it became more and more solid, the two heads of the Two-headed Fire Spirit Snake that were raised high also gradually drooped down, revealing a look of submission.
Looking at the surrendered two-headed fire snake, Cai Lin flew over. While her enchanting purple snake tail swayed, her red lips slightly opened, making a few strange sounds, as if she was communicating with the other party.
Soon, Cai Lin got the news she wanted. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly with a faint smile. She glanced at Yao Yan and said softly, "It's right down here."
Looking at the two-headed fire snake that had turned into a good boy, there was not much emotion in Yao Yan's eyes. He knew that Queen Medusa's clan had this talent. In addition, this clan also had a unique petrification ability. As long as you look at it, you will be hit without knowing it.
Unfortunately, this move has little effect on the strong and can only be used against those weaker than oneself.
Yao Yan said softly: "Let it lead the way."
Caidie nodded and ordered the two-headed fire snake to lead the three of them. Then they swam towards the depths of the magma.
As they went deeper, the temperature and pressure around them increased dramatically, and even the color of the magma began to change, from red to blue. Yao Yan was not affected at all. With his physique, he was not afraid of the pressure and high temperature of the magma.
In contrast, Hai Bodong seemed a little embarrassed. His ice-attributed fighting spirit kept colliding with the hot magma around him, causing a series of bubbles to wrap around his body. It looked extremely interesting, but it also caused his speed to drop sharply.
Finally, he reluctantly signaled Yao Yan and the others to go ahead, and he would follow behind. Yao Yan was not surprised by this. Magma was not friendly to ice attribute practitioners. The two attributes conflicted with each other. Moreover, this place was getting closer and closer to the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. The temperature increased exponentially. The pressure Hai Bodong was under was several times greater than theirs.
After a while.
Yao Yan activated the Vajra Indestructible Body, and his whole body turned into an ancient bronze color. Specks of silver light permeated his body, making his aura even deeper and more powerful. This also made Cai Lin, who was standing beside him, stay on him for a moment. Even though they had no close contact, she could feel the tremendous power contained in Yao Yan's body.
It was just a slight movement, but the surrounding magma caused vibrations. You have to know that they are now deep in the magma.
There was a hint of strangeness in Cai Lin's eyes, and she said to herself, "How did this kid cultivate his body? He is even stronger than a sixth-level magic beast. He is simply a little monster!"
At this moment, she knew where Yao Yan's confidence came from.
"Sigh~"
As the two-headed fire snake let out a roar, its speed suddenly increased, and it soon brought Yao Yan and Cai Lin to a strange magma world. At this moment, the surrounding magma had been covered by a green light, and in the center of the light a strange green lotus was floating, standing gently.
"Sigh~"
The moment the two-headed fire snake saw this thing, a sharp sound came out of its huge mouth, as if it was extremely frightened. Its huge body even began to tremble slightly, and it didn't dare to get close at all.
Cai Lin looked at the green lotus in front of her that looked like jade, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes, because the lotus in front of her was really beautiful, as if it was a perfect thing nurtured by heaven and earth, and every petal looked so perfect.
"嘤嘤!"
Ling'er in Yao Yan's arms poked out her head at some point, with her big furry ears standing up high. Her emerald green eyes were fixed on the green lotus and she let out a few vigilant cries. It was obvious that she had also sensed the breath of the strange fire.
"Qinglian Earth Heart Fire!"
Yao Yan whispered softly, reached out and touched Ling'er in his arms, and wanted to move closer.
"Be careful!"
Cai Lin spoke up to remind them, she looked at the green lotus with some caution. Based on her experience of living in the Tagor Desert for many years, she knew that the more beautiful something was, the more dangerous it was, not to mention the strange fire that was bred deep in the magma!
Yao Yan shook his head. He had already sensed it with his soul power. The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire was now extremely quiet. It would not show its most violent side unless stimulated. Especially when it stayed in its own 'home', it was undoubtedly extremely docile.
As he stepped into the green light, the temperature and pressure around him quickly dissipated, and at the same time, the rich fire energy around him quickly decreased.
Yao Yan's gaze fell on the green lotus. The long roots underneath it were greedily devouring the surrounding fire energy, turning them into nutrients to nourish the 'fruit' in the center. A cluster of green flames was quietly floating in it.
And this is actually the purpose of Yao Yan's trip!
Below the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire is a lotus platform about two or three feet high with eleven holes on it, emitting a crystal color, like a treasure bred by the fire of the earth.
"What to do now?"
Cai Lin also came to Yao Yan's side at this moment, looking at the perfect creation in front of her, and couldn't help but say.
Yao Yan suppressed his inner urge, looked at the violent fire attribute energy attracted by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and the eleven Earth Fire Lotus seeds in the center of the lotus platform, pursed his dry lips, and said slowly: "Practice, I plan to break through to Dou Ling here, and then consider refining it."
"Practice here?"
Upon hearing this, Cai Lin couldn't help but look at Yao Yan, the madman. She didn't know what to say about Yao Yan's crazy behavior.
"But before that, I have to find a home for the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire."
Yao Yan said softly.
Since he intends to refine the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, it is extremely necessary to weaken the opponent's power. He is not stupid enough to directly devour the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire at its peak. Even if the opponent does not have much intelligence, he still has instincts. If threatened, the power that erupts from the strange fire will be extremely terrifying, especially the strange fire in the place of birth!
As he spoke, he took out a half-human-high ice crystal stone from the ring. Inside the ice crystal stone, there was a large amount of ice spirit cold spring, and the ice crystals on the outside were just the condensation of its energy.
He had prepared the cage in advance.
The Ice Spirit Cold Spring, which has properties that perfectly restrain the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, is the best carrier. It can perfectly cut off the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire's connection with the outside world, making it unable to absorb fire attribute energy. As one gains while the other loses, the power of the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire will be continuously reduced until it becomes completely 'docile'.
In the original novel, Queen Medusa used this stupid method to take out the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire. However, this method consumed too much of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring. Compared with this rough method, Yao Yan could also use the Black Magic Cauldron. With a flash in his eyes, he took out the Black Magic Cauldron from the Bone Flame Ring.
As a medicine cauldron on the Tianding list, the Black Demon Cauldron naturally has the ability to resist the power of strange fire. When wrapped in the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, it is enough to perfectly seal the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire in the Black Demon Cauldron.
Yao Yan did not hesitate. He used his soul power to control the Ice Spirit Cold Spring and turned it into a palm like an ice crystal. He directly grasped the cluster of green flames in the center of the lotus platform. The moment the two came into contact, the violent fire energy around them began to riot. At the same time, the Green Lotus Core Fire went wild, turning from a cluster of flames into a violent sea of fire, spreading to the surroundings. In just a moment, a large amount of Ice Spirit Cold Spring was annihilated.
"I'll give you a new home!"
Yao Yan chuckled, controlled the Ice Spirit Cold Spring and clenched it tightly, directly pulling out the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, and then flew into the Black Demon Cauldron with it.
"Chichi!"
At this moment the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire completely erupted, and the terrifying fire power continued to rage. Along with the evaporation of a large amount of Ice Spirit Cold Spring, the Black Demon Cauldron began to vibrate continuously, and the patterns on its surface began to glow dark red, as if it had completely revived.
Yao Yan's expression remained unchanged as he calmly poured a large amount of Ice Spirit Cold Spring into the Black Demon Cauldron. In order to ensure a smooth journey, he even emptied all the Ice Spirit Cold Springs of the entire Snake Tribe!
It’s enough to torment the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire!
PS: I drank too much last night...
