Chapter 51 Qinglian Earth Core FireIn the fiery magma world, undercurrents are surging. Occasionally, an extremely ferocious magma undercurrent bursts out from the bottom of the magma, carrying powerful energy and flowing around in the magma.
Fortunately, the two-headed fire snake was very familiar with the environment here, and could find the most suitable route to sneak before the undercurrent hit. Xiao Yun, who was following closely behind it, also took the opportunity to avoid these magma undercurrents.
In this fiery red world, it was not known whether the Fire Spirit Snake was the only magical beast or it had escaped in advance. Anyway, Xiao Yun had not seen any shadow of the magical beast as he followed along the way.
As time passed, Xiao Yun was getting farther and farther away from the ground. At the same time, the temperature of the surrounding magma was getting higher and higher, almost doubling every few dozen meters he went down.
Even the color of the magma was gradually changing, from the initial fiery red to bluish. Now, the magma around Xiao Yun had completely turned bluish.
As his body shuttled through the green magma, Xiao Yun stared at the Fire Spirit Snake in front of him. The temperature around him was getting higher and higher. Even though he had the cultivation level of a Dou Wang, he could not withstand it and his Dou Qi was being consumed rapidly.
So he quickly took out several Qi-recovering pills from his storage ring and swallowed them. At once, extremely powerful medicinal power burst out from Xiao Yun's body. He quickly practiced his skills to transform this huge amount of medicinal power into fighting spirit to make up for the previous consumption.
"Hiss."
Just after Xiao Yun followed the Fire Spirit Snake and sneaked for a while, the huge body of the Fire Spirit Snake suddenly stopped. One of the snake heads looked back at Xiao Yun and made a sharp hissing sound, while the other head pointed forward, signaling him to look there.
"You don't dare to go ahead, right?" Xiao Yun said uncertainly after seeing the behavior of the Fire Spirit Snake.
"Hiss." The snake's head shook up and down, nodding in response like a human.
Xiao Yun swam forward and looked at the magma not far ahead, which was shrouded in a green light. Looking carefully, he saw a green lotus blooming in the magma, and the green light was also emitted by the green lotus.
"The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire has finally been found!" Xiao Yun's eyes flashed with joy, and he smiled at the Fire Spirit Snake and said, "In that case, you go up and protect Qing Lin. I will go up by myself later."
After saying this, without waiting for its response, his figure flashed, and his fighting spirit pushed him to swim rapidly towards the green lotus.
As his body got closer and closer to the green lotus, Xiao Yun felt the temperature around him suddenly rise, and even the fiery red fighting spirit that wrapped around his body showed a tendency to disintegrate.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun hurriedly mobilized more fighting spirit and accelerated his body to rush into the green light.
As the body entered the green light, the temperature around it suddenly dropped a lot, far less than the high temperature outside the light.
Xiao Yun let out a light breath. It was indeed extremely dangerous to subdue the strange fire. If he had lost the protection of his fighting spirit, even if his body could be comparable to a fourth-level magical beast, it would be burned to ashes by the green magma in an instant.
After a while, Xiao Yun came back to his senses and looked up at the green lotus in the center. The green lotus was divided into eight petals, and the eight green leaves were like the most perfect green jade, crystal clear, and precious, making people feel that they couldn't let go.
In the center of the lotus, there is a small lotus platform about two or three feet in size. In the center of the lotus platform, there is a ball of green flame burning. Around the flame, there are some holes that are emitting fluorescent light. They are the lotus seeds condensed from the purest fire energy.
Below the green lotus, there is an extremely slender rhizome, which is more than ten meters long. It madly absorbs the violent fire energy from the surrounding magma and feeds it back to the green lotus.
"That's why the temperature around is much lower even though we are closer to the blue lotus." Xiao Yun thought to himself, looking at the blue lotus in front of him. If it weren't for the fire snake leading the way, even with his soul power, he would have to search for a long time to find the blue lotus. He didn't sigh any more, after all, Qinglin was still alone on the magma. Xiao Yun took out a jade ruler that he had prepared long ago, held it tightly, and swam carefully towards the blue lotus. He gently scratched the part under the lotus seat where the rhizome was connected, and the rhizome was directly cut off. The blue lotus, which was as perfect as a work of art, slowly fell down.
Seeing the green lotus falling, Xiao Yun waved his hand, and used his fighting spirit to hold the green lotus up and float it beside him. He looked at the green fire in the center of the lotus platform, and could no longer suppress the joy on his face.
"What a treasure! This Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire is inside the Azure Lotus. It doesn't have the violent properties of the other fires at all. It looks even worse than an ordinary fire."
Xiao Yun took a deep breath of non-existent air in his heart and tried hard to suppress the joy in his heart. After a while, he held Qinglian and hurried towards the ground along the route led by the Fire Spirit Snake in his mind.
……
"Xiao Huo, why hasn't your brother come up yet? Is anything wrong?"
On the ground, Qing Lin looked at the magma surface that had been motionless for a long time, and couldn't help but worry about Xiao Yun's safety.
"Hiss."
"What do you mean, just because my brother is stronger than you, everything will be fine? What if? How about Xiaohuo, go down and take a look?"
"Hiss."
The two-headed fire snake shook its head helplessly. The abominable human who knocked it unconscious was so strong, how could anything possibly happen to him? But Qinglin was its master, and it had to obey every word he said.
Just as the Fire Snake twisted its body and prepared to enter the magma again, a black shadow quickly approached the surface of the magma. A moment later, a green and red figure broke through the magma and shot out.
"Brother, you're back!" Looking at Xiao Yun in mid-air, Qing Lin shouted excitedly, "Xiao Huo, you don't have to go down, brother is back."
Holding Qinglian, Xiao Yun slowly landed beside Qinglin, stretched out his hand to rub her little head, and said with a smile: "I was delayed for a while down there. Are you anxious waiting?"
"No, as long as brother returns safely, Qinglin is willing to wait as long as it takes." Xiao Yun rubbed her head, and the little girl nodded comfortably. Looking at the beautiful green lotus floating beside her, she asked in confusion: "Brother, is the fire you are looking for this beautiful lotus?"
"The strange fire I'm looking for is called the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, and this fire is in this lotus. The lotus is just a carrier for cultivating it."
Xiao Yun held Qinglian and turned to walk towards the passage, saying as he walked: "Okay, Qinglin, take your little fire with you, we are going back."
Hearing this, Qing Lin hurriedly whistled at the two-headed fire snake, and its huge body immediately shrank to about two meters, carrying her to catch up with Xiao Yun's back.
