Douluo: I am the outer demon

Chapter 247: Hai Bodong Almost Died

Desert City,

A border city in the eastern part of the Gama Empire, located in the Tagor Desert.

The architectural style of Mo City is very different from that of the cities within the Gama Empire. It is rough and magnificent.

Most of the men here are shirtless, and the women's clothes are quite sparse, some even only cover three points, which looks very hot.

With Shang An as their guide, Xun'er led the Little Medical Fairy in a clear direction.

The two people's conservative dress is quite unusual here.

"Is this right here?"

The two stopped in front of a map shop called "Gutu". This shop was not as ostentatious as other shops, and it even had a hint of ancient atmosphere.

The store was deserted and there were not many people in it.

Behind the counter there was an old man who was carefully making a map with his head down. He did not react at all even when he saw Xun'er and the other person come in.

Xun'er looked around, and finally her eyes fixed on a rotten wooden shelf that contained a map.

Reaching out, a fragment of the map appeared in Xun'er's hand. Looking at its appearance, it was obviously the same as the fragment she got in the cave. Both were part of a complete map.

"That's exactly what it is."

Xun'er was secretly delighted. On the way, Teacher Chou told her that this was the map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, which was ranked third on the Strange Fire List.

Even compared with his own Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame and Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, it is far inferior. The top three strange fires are not comparable to ordinary strange fires.

However, this incomplete map seems a little small, only half the size of what he got in the cave.

Xun'er seemed to be thinking about something, frowned, and then asked, "Boss, are you going to sell this incomplete map?"

The old man who had been lowering his head finally raised his eyes slightly and looked at Xun'er, "Do you recognize this fragment of the painting?"

"I know him. He is related to the strange fire and is very important to me." Xun'er nodded without lying. She also knew that this boss was not simple.

"Strange fire?" The old man muttered a few words, then shook his head and said, "Not for sale."

Then he lowered his head and continued to draw the map. Although his tone was flat, there was an unquestionable attitude. He was not polite at all just because Xun'er was a guest.

Hearing the rejection, Xun'er narrowed her eyes. No matter what, since this map was related to the Pure Lotus Demon Fire, she had to get it. It was related to her path to becoming an emperor. Whoever tried to stop her would die.

"Haha, little girl, I don't care about money either, but I advise you not to have other ideas, otherwise it will not be good for you."

The old man seemed to have noticed Xun'er's thoughts and waved his hand.

"What if I must take it?" Xun'er said firmly, with no intention of putting down the remaining map.

"Then you can't leave the store." There was a threat in the old man's tone, and the fierce aura on his body gradually pressed towards Xun'er.

"Mr. Ling." Xun'er stopped talking nonsense and called out directly.

There's no need to disturb the teacher for such a small matter, just let Mr. Ling do it.

Following Xun'er's order, a figure in a black robe immediately appeared in the store. In front of the old man's horrified eyes, he grabbed his collar, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

A half-crippled Dou Huang dares to threaten the eldest daughter of the ancient clan. He really doesn't know how to live or die.

“Dou Huang!” The old man’s pupils shrank sharply, he exclaimed, and waved his hands quickly, “Wait, don’t do it for a minute.”

This little girl actually has a Douhuang guard by her side. What’s his background?
His cultivation was sealed now, and he could only exert the strength of a Dou Ling. In Ling Ying's hands, he was like a lamb to be slaughtered, with no power to resist.

"Mr. Ling, put him down." Xun'er said lightly.

She was not an unreasonable person. If the incomplete map was not too precious and the old man seemed adamant, she would not have bothered to snatch it away.

"There's still half of the remaining picture, take it out as well."

She glanced at the old man in front of her with indifference.

The old man's expression froze. How did she know that there was still half of the map left? Then he smiled bitterly and said honestly, "I gave that half of the map to an old friend. I only have the part you have."

"Really?" Xun'er raised her eyebrows slightly and said in a cold tone: "Master Ling, kill him."

Upon hearing this, Ling Ying's shadow fighting spirit surged and turned into a sharp blade, ready to attack the old man's neck.

"Hey, wait, I have it, I have it!" The shadow blade so close at hand made the old man sweat coldly on his forehead.

My goodness, she looked like a simple girl, but she wanted to kill someone as soon as she opened her mouth. Now the old man dared not hide it anymore. He had told his friend before that he thought that since the girl valued the incomplete map, she would not kill him easily. Who knew that she would not play by the rules.

"Take it out and I'll spare your life." Xun'er's delicate and lovely little face uttered words without any emotion at this moment.

The little medical fairy next to her watched Xun'er's performance throughout. Looking at this somewhat strong senior sister, she couldn't help but think about something in her heart.

With Ling Ying beside him, the old man dared not disobey. He ran to the counter, rummaged around for a while, and finally took out a torn map from a small box and respectfully handed it to Ling Ying who was standing beside him.

Ling Ying checked it and found no problems before handing it over to Xun'er.

When the two incomplete maps were put together, they became the same size as the one in the cave. Xun'er put the incomplete maps away with satisfaction and looked at the old man beside her.

"Since you are sensible, I will give you this pill as a reward."

A white pill flew towards the old man.

"……Well."

The old man took the pill and was a little speechless. It looked like an ordinary pill without any fragrance. It would be okay if he took it. However, he still said politely:

"Thank you, Miss...

He had to be polite, because Ling Ying next to him looked like he wanted to stab him.

After getting the incomplete map, Xun'er took Xiao Yixiang's hand and prepared to leave, but paused when she walked out of the store.

"This pill can remove the seal in your body."

Her voice reached the old man's ears again, causing him to shudder all over.

This pill had been prepared long ago. In fact, it was just an ordinary sugar pill, but Shang An added a spiritual power to break the seal. It could be used to break the seal set by Medusa without any pressure. When it came to seals, Shang An was an expert.

Xun'er also knew the identity of this old man. He seemed to be an Ice Emperor. However, Xun'er took out the elixir in the end because she saw that the old man had such a bad attitude. If Ling Ying hadn't threatened him, the old man might not have behaved himself.

Seeing the two girls go away, Hai Bodong stared at the pill in his hand in a daze. He stood there for a long time, and suddenly he gritted his teeth and put the pill into his mouth.

There's no need to go through so much trouble if the girl wants him dead. Let's take a gamble!
boom!
The powerful aura swept across the entire street and even spread to the entire Mo City, causing the temperature in Mo City to drop a few degrees. There were even gusts of cold wind near the Gutu store.

The water in the jar froze into ice in an instant, and the child who was peeing put on a mask of pain.

"Hahahaha, I, the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, am back!"

Hai Bodong vented his strength wantonly, and all his original frustration was swept away. He was even somewhat fortunate. If it weren't for the little girl who took a fancy to the incomplete painting in his shop, he didn't know when he would be able to recover his cultivation.

……

"Sister, aren't we going to buy a map?"

On the side of the road, Xiao Yixian couldn't help but ask.

"No, the teacher has already identified several possible locations of the strange fire. Just follow the teacher's instructions."

Xun'er waved her hand and said.

Although this strange fire born between heaven and earth has a self-concealing mechanism, Shang An only needs to use his divine sense to scan and find the places with the strongest fire attributes in the Tagor Desert.

"Oh." Little Medical Fairy looked at Xiao Xun'er with some envy. Senior sister is so nice that she can communicate with the teacher at any time.

"Let's go to the east first." Xun'er took the Little Medical Fairy to a place with strong fire attributes that Shang An told her about.

Unlike the city, the yellow sand in the desert can make people feel lonely, especially after staying there for a long time.

Coupled with the monsters that popped out from under the desert from time to time, the two girls were a little exhausted.

But his whole spirit and energy have also undergone a great transformation, and his eyes have become more determined.

In terms of the results of the training, this was a good experience, but the strange fire was still not found.

"Let's go to the last place and take a look."

Under the scorching sun, Xun'er wiped the sweat off her forehead and pulled Xiao Yixiang forward.

Hiss~
A snake-like monster with a triangular head flew out from the sand and attacked the two.

However, the two were used to it and were not surprised or panicked. Xiao Yixianxiu pushed her hand forward and a dark handprint hit the head of the snake-shaped monster.

The snake-shaped monster suddenly froze, its body gradually turned black, and finally fell to the ground.

"Xian'er's Ten Thousand Poison Palm has become more and more proficient in its use." Xun'er couldn't help but say with a smile.

These days, those first-level monsters are basically left to Xiao Yixian to deal with, which has greatly improved Xiao Yixian's actual combat ability.

"I'm still a long way off." The Little Medical Fairy was not arrogant. She had swallowed a few beads of poison recently, but her cultivation had only reached the level of a nine-star fighter, which was a big gap compared to Xun'er.

"Junior sister has just become a fighter not long ago, but she already has such fighting power. If some so-called geniuses knew about this, I wonder how they would feel inferior."

Xun'er chuckled and said that compared with the talent of Xiao Yixian, the so-called first genius of the Xiao family, Xiao Yan, was like a clown. Even the many geniuses in her own family were basically unable to compare with Xiao Yixian.

The speed at which Xiao Yixiang cultivates can make these so-called geniuses feel inferior.

I can only say that you are worthy of being valued by the teacher.

Although Xun'er still hasn't given in, she has already regarded Xiao Yixiang as her real junior sister.

"Hmm, what an explosive fire energy."

After walking for a while, the two finally arrived at their destination.

Feeling the rich fire energy around her that seemed like magma about to erupt, Xun'er couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Perhaps this was the location of the real strange fire.

"Is it really here?" The Little Medical Fairy looked around at the endless yellow sand and found nothing. She couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

"It should be down here." Xun'er thought for a moment and looked at the yellow sand under her feet.

"Xian'er, get out of the way."

The little medical fairy retreated obediently.

Xun'er was ready, and all her fighting spirit was concentrated in her arms.

boom!
A huge roar sounded in the empty desert, and yellow sand covered the sky. Many small monsters living under the yellow sand also gradually emerged. The little medical fairy on the side hurriedly used her fighting spirit to shield her subordinates in front of her.

A huge cave about four or five meters wide appeared under the yellow sand. Extremely rich fire energy emanated from the cave, making Xun'er feel refreshed.

"Sure enough, the place where the strange fire was located was just buried by yellow sand."

A smile appeared on Xun'er's face.

The second kind of strange fire, here she comes.

Walking down into the cave, the winding and dry tunnel seemed a little quiet. The temperature rose higher as they went deeper, and by the end both of them were soaked in sweat.

Afterwards, the passage came to a fork, but Xun'er followed the one with the strongest fire attribute.

At the end of the passage is a huge cave with fiery red magma flowing slowly in it. Occasionally, huge bubbles emerge from the magma. But after a moment, with a slight sound, it explodes with a bang, and the hot magma bursts out from it, as gorgeous as a fiery red firework.

Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking at the seemingly endless magma world, the two women couldn't help but be shocked by the magnificence of nature.

"There is such a terrifying place in the desert." Little Medical Fairy exclaimed.

The scorching temperature made both of their bodies feel hot, so they had to use fighting spirit to separate themselves.

"The strange fire should be inside." Xun'er looked at the magma and felt the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame in her body throbbing slightly.

"There's magma all over this place. How do we get down? Maybe we took the wrong path?" Little Medical Fairy said with a wry smile.

She has poison-attributed Dou Qi, and the fact that she can endure the high temperature and walk here is due to the purity of her Dou Qi.

“Yes, I feel like this is it.”

"Xian'er, please wait outside the passage first. I have my own way." Xun'er also noticed that Xiao Yixian was feeling unwell and said with concern.

The little medical fairy was a little hesitant.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine with the teacher here." Xun'er added.

The Little Medical Fairy nodded, gave Xun'er an encouraging look, and turned away.

Soon the only sound in the silent cave was the bubbling of magma. The temperature of the magma was so high that even if she had the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame in her hand, it would be impossible for her to dive down with her strength as a fighting master. Xun'er took a deep breath and began to call for her teacher.

"I'll protect you, so don't worry." Shang An's voice rang in Xun'er's mind, making her feel at ease instantly and ready to dive into the magma.

Gurgle gurgle!

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the magma. Xun'er immediately stopped and looked ahead vigilantly.

Suddenly, magma splashed everywhere and Xun'er quickly dodged it.

The scattered magma fell to the ground with a sizzling sound.

Amidst the flying lava, a gigantic two-headed fire snake suddenly burst out from the magma and shot towards Xun'er.

This aura is almost as strong as Hai Bodong's before the seal was broken.

"Mr. Ling!"

Xun'er was not prepared to confront the giant snake head-on. Finding the strange fire was her first goal.

Old Ling in black instantly appeared behind the big snake, and pressed down the snake's head with his big hand. The aura of the Douhuang was fully displayed, and the originally majestic and domineering two-headed fire spirit snake instantly turned into a rotten loach.

He huddled on the ground, shivering, not daring to move.

"Master Ling, please protect me. I want to go down and absorb the strange fire."

Xun'er gave an order, then gritted her teeth and jumped directly towards the hot magma.

"Miss!" Ling Ying's body was tense, ready to rescue at any time.

But the next moment, a golden light wrapped around Xun'er's body, separating her from the surrounding heat and leading her smoothly into the magma.

The magma was a fiery red mass, and the road was almost invisible. Fortunately, with Shang An's guidance, Xun'er swam towards the direction of the magma.

Undercurrents gushed out of the magma, mixed with extremely explosive fire energy. The power contained in it could even easily seriously injure a great fighting master.

However, with the protection of the golden light, Xun'er will be fine.

No other magical beasts were seen in the magma. Xun'er just swam forward. Gradually, the color of the surrounding magma turned slightly bluish. Even in the golden light, Xun'er could vaguely sense that the temperature around was getting higher and higher. I'm afraid that even the Dou Wang could not stay here for long.

Xun'er's eyes flashed with solemnity, "Teacher, can you still hold on?"

But she knew that the soul body's use of its abilities would consume soul power, and this consumption was not easy to recover.

"Xiao Xun'er, the teacher is very good." Shang An's voice was still lazy. Different from Doupo's soul body, his divine consciousness could absorb the energy from the surrounding to make up for the consumption. Not to mention taking Xun'er with him, he could easily take a few more people with him.

Xun'er felt relieved when she realized Shang An's powerful mental hand was playing tricks on her little face.

The teacher could still joke with her at this time, it seemed that there was really no problem.

She continued to dive.

Three minutes later, the surrounding magma had gradually turned green, and five minutes later, the green color became even more intense.

eight minutes,
The surroundings were shrouded in green light. Xun'er looked around and saw a lotus blooming with green light. The scattered green light came from here.

The lotus is gentle and holy, and there is no sign of any explosive aura, but upon closer inspection, one can find a green flame burning in the center of the lotus.

Xun'er's eyes lit up, "It turns out to be the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, I found it!"

"Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire" is ranked nineteenth on the list of strange fires. It is born in the depths of the earth and has undergone countless times of tempering, fusion, compression, and carving by the fire of the earth... It takes ten years to become a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to become a lotus. When it is fully mature, its color is green.

A cluster of green fire grows in the heart of the lotus, which is called the Green Lotus Fire, also known as the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire. This fire is extremely powerful and can even cause volcanic eruptions near volcanic areas, causing natural disasters.

Not only is the fire precious, but the creatures that live under it are also extraordinary. The lotus has eight petals, eight green leaves. It is as perfect as the most perfect green jade.

At first glance, it is crystal clear, making people want to put it down. Inside the lotus is a lotus platform that is nearly three feet wide.

Shang An could tell at a glance that this lotus platform had the effect of assisting in cultivation, and it was a natural magic weapon embryo with excellent growth potential.

"It's just right to refine a magic weapon for little Xun'er." Shang An couldn't help but imagine Xun'er sitting on the lotus platform in his mind, with a serious little face, a holy temperament, a solemn appearance, and Guanyin sitting on the (lotus)...

Ahem, I can’t think about it any further.

However, it must be said that if Xun'er sits on the lotus, with her temperament, she would have no problem even playing the role of Guanyin.

Not to mention Shang An's wild thoughts, Xun'er waved her hands and swam towards the direction of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire. For some reason, the temperature here was actually lower than anywhere else.
