Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 266 Fire Spirit Serpent

right here!

Xiao Yan carried the Xuanzhong Ruler on his back, with a little purple cat perched on his shoulder, his eyes fixed intently on the dark cave.

According to the original story, the deepest part of this cave is where the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is nurtured!
Yun Ye stood up, with streams of yellow sand floating around him, and chuckled, "There's too much sand accumulated in the tunnel, so cleaning it will take quite a while. I'm sorry to have kept you all waiting..."

"It's only been a minute."

Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, saying, "Brother Yun, you're joking!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Su Haoming unleashed a torrent of wind-based magical power.

"boom!"

The next second, the yellow tornado exploded and turned into a cloud of yellow sand that fell down.

Su Haoming didn't care at all and said excitedly, "Let's go down and take a look!"

The group members exchanged smiles and began to walk towards the dark cave three hundred meters away.

Before long, the group arrived at the cave.

Looking down into the dark cave filled with scorching heat, Lin Lie pondered, "It seems this place is quite deep. If someone is blocking the outside of the cave and deliberately blasting it down, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out for a while."

"How about we leave two people outside to keep watch, and the rest accompany Xiao Yan into the cave?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Ye and He Jingfeng nodded in agreement: "That's what I think too."

Su Haoming asked with piercing eyes, "So here's the question: who stays and who goes in?"

"Let me make this clear first, I personally definitely want to see the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame..."

He Jingfeng said helplessly, "Old Su, you have a wind-type spiritual root. In this desert land, the surface is more suitable for you, isn't it?"

Yun Ye nodded repeatedly: "That's right!"

Su Haoming said with dissatisfaction, "If that's the case, then Lao Yun is a water elementalist. This underground world is full of fire elemental energy, which doesn't seem suitable for Lao Yun to exert his abilities, does it?"

Yun Ye smiled and said, "Sorry, I am a dual earth and water elementalist, and the underground is my paradise!"

Seeing that the three of them seemed interested in going into the cave, Lin Lie smiled and smoothed things over, saying, "In that case, you can all go down. One person on the surface is enough!"

"..."

The three of them shut up and turned to look at Lin Lie.

"Isn't this...not good?"

Su Haoming said somewhat embarrassedly.

Lin Lie laughed and said, "What, do you doubt my strength?"

Yun Ye shook his head and said, "That's not it. The main problem is that Queen Medusa's methods are unpredictable. Although our energy level is sufficient, we haven't yet come into contact with the powerful beings of this world. Who knows if we'll fall into her trap..."

"Let's leave one more person behind, so we can watch out for each other!"

Lin Lie smiled and said casually, "Don't worry, my poison resistance is already over 100, which makes me immune to more than 90% of toxins. I also have extremely high resistance to mental attacks and sealing skills."

"Dealing with a mere Queen Medusa is no problem!"

Hearing Lin Lie's confident words, Xiao Yan and the other three couldn't help but exchange bewildered glances.

I almost forgot, this guy is a system-based protagonist, and also a well-rounded Sword Master character in DNF. His overall strength is definitely not inferior to cultivators of the same level, so there's really no need to worry about him failing.

After a moment's thought, He Jingfeng nodded and said, "Then let Ah Lie stay!"

"After entering the cave, I will stay underground at the end of the passage and have the two of them accompany Xiao Yan deeper in. That way, if anything happens on the surface, I can get back as quickly as possible!"

After some discussion, everyone nodded in agreement and decided to follow He Jingfeng's plan.

It's not that the group members are being cautious; it's mainly because their strength is indeed insufficient to run rampant in the Doupo world.

Even among the snake-people of the Tagor Desert, there are a total of five peak-level Dou Huang experts, including Queen Medusa.

Although the other four characters did not appear in the early part of the original story, it's hard to say whether there will be any butterfly effect in this world.

If Queen Medusa feels it's not safe enough and invites the four elders of the snake people for assistance, then things will get complicated...

After assigning tasks, Xiao Yan and his companions leaped down and landed in the dark cave.

Just as they had expected, the cave passage was extremely strange.

The surrounding stone walls were perfectly smooth, without any protrusions, as if a thick pillar of energy had descended from the sky and pierced straight through the entire stratum.

After falling for about two minutes, Xiao Yan and his companions landed at the bottom of the passage.

At this moment, there were more than a dozen forks in the road in front of them.

In the original story, they followed the traces left by Queen Medusa to determine the correct passage, but now, Queen Medusa has not yet found this place, and they can only rely on themselves to find the correct answer.

Xiao Yan asked in his heart, "Teacher, do you have any good ideas?"

The old apothecary replied, "Yes, there is. The simplest way is to release the Bone Spirit Cold Flame!"

Different flames attract and devour each other. With the Bone Spirit Cold Flame as a guide, one can indeed find different flames the fastest.

but……

Xiao Yan shook his head and said, "Won't the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame become even more violent in this way?"

The old doctor chuckled, "That's right. So, whether there's a better way depends on your friends..."

Before he finished speaking, Su Haoming next to him lifted off the ground and floated into the air.

A stream of energy swirled around him, gradually transforming from transparent to pale blue under the influence of magical power.

The next second, Su Haoming raised his hand and shouted softly, "Wind Seal - Exploration Wind!"

"Buzz—" Accompanied by the buzzing of energy, streams of light blue energy roared out, emanating from Su Haoming in all directions.

In an instant, the pale blue air currents dispersed and surged into more than ten different side roads around them.

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned to look at Su Haoming. He saw that Su Haoming's eyes were closed, his black hair was flowing, and his robes were billowing, as if he was following the wind of perception to sense the road ahead.

A short while later, Su Haoming opened his eyes and revealed a smile.

Xiao Yan quickly asked, "How is it? Did you find it?"

Su Haoming nodded, looking at a certain passage and smiling, "This passage is the longest. At the end there is a river of lava, and there seem to be some strange creatures in the river. If nothing unexpected happens, that should be our target!"

"Great!"

Xiao Yan was overjoyed and immediately stepped into the passage.

The other three followed closely behind.

Su Haoming looked at He Jingfeng behind him and asked in surprise, "Weren't you going to stay at the bottom of the passage?"

He Jingfeng shook his head and said, "It's not over yet..."

Yun Ye seemed to understand something, then chuckled softly, "No wonder you came down here, did you want to take the opportunity to catch a few fire spirit snakes?"

He Jingfeng glanced at him and chuckled, "I can't hide it from you after all... That's right, the group recently added a biological department, and we do need some magical creatures for research."

"I think the magical beasts in this world are pretty good!"

Yun Ye frowned and said, "But isn't life supposed to be something you can't steal during the return journey?"

He Jingfeng shook his head and said, "It's just that intelligent life forms can't smuggle themselves across, but wild beasts that haven't developed intelligence can!"

As they talked, the surrounding temperature rose and the moisture in the air decreased.

Xiao Yan, the weakest of the four, could still endure it, but he was already sweating profusely and his mouth was dry.

Yun Ye, who possessed both earth and water attributes, also felt somewhat uneasy. After a moment's thought, he took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, raised his hand, and with a wave, streams of water gushed out, condensing into a water film on the bodies of the four people.

In an instant, a cool sensation spread throughout my body.

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

As a result, the water vapor entered his throat and immediately turned into energy that surged into his body, replenishing the fighting spirit he had just used to resist the fire.

"...Is this the water from the Seven-Colored Lotus Pond in my elder brother's dojo?"

Xiao Yan's heart stirred, and he immediately smiled, breathing in the water vapor without any hesitation to recover his fighting spirit.

Before long, the group arrived at the end of the passage.

Just as Su Haoming had said before, a wide and viscous river of lava flowed in the underground world at the end.

The golden-red magma rose and fell, swelled and burst on the river surface, and huge bubbles were formed deep within the viscous lava, eventually breaking through the newly solidified black shell and making a deep and loud popping sound.

Tiny columns of lava and pungent sulfurous gases spewed out, making the entire underground world incredibly hot.

Being here feels like stepping into a burning furnace; every breath is scalding hot and piercing to the throat and lungs.

Fortunately, their bodies were covered by a film of water, so they couldn't feel the scorching heat from the outside.

Moreover, the water of the Seven-Colored Lotus Pond possesses a certain degree of purifying power, which can isolate external objects and prevent them from being invaded by fire poison.

Looking at the magma river ahead, which was distorted and blurred by the heat, He Jingfeng said with a smile, "Going downstream, that's where the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is."

"You can cross the river now, and I'll take care of the little snakes in it!"

Before he finished speaking, He Jingfeng flipped his right hand, took out three round balls that emitted cold air, and threw them out.

In an instant, the sphere broke through the air and landed on the slowly flowing river of lava, instantly exploding into a cloud of white mist tens of meters wide, which actually froze the constantly surging lava into an ice river and ice pillars!

Xiao Yan stared in astonishment at the frozen lava river and couldn't help but exclaim:

"what is this?"

"Freeze grenade".

He Jingfeng laughed and said, "However, what is effective in essence is the freezing power guided from the Ice Box, so it is not really a technological item."

That's it!

Xiao Yan looked enlightened.

The Casket of Ice is a treasure of the Frost Giants of Jotunheim in the Marvel universe, said to possess the terrifying power to freeze a planet.

Since the freezing power in this grenade comes from the Ice Box, it's not surprising that it can freeze magma!

As they spoke, white ice mist spread out, freezing all the magma it touched.

The slowly creeping river of lava came to a standstill.

The next second, the calm river surface suddenly exploded, and a huge figure burst out from it, carrying countless scorching flames and splashing golden-red magma, revealing its form.

It was a serpentine monster that was twenty meters long, with palm-sized red scales covering its body, on which streaks of golden-red flames flowed, making its entire body fiery red.

From a distance, it looks like a small river of lava that is burning and writhing.

Without a doubt, this is the serpentine monster that lives in the lava river—the Fire Spirit Serpent!
After the fire serpent emerged, numerous other serpent shadows, angered by the spreading frost power, swam towards this side from beneath the magma.

"His-"

The crimson forked tongue flickered in the air, and two huge, diamond-shaped eyes stared intently at the four people on the shore, filled with violent rage and bloodthirsty killing intent.

Seeing this, He Jingfeng smiled slightly and casually said, "Go ahead, I will do my best to attract their attention, but you will have to deal with the fire spirit snakes deep in the lava river on your own!"
