Fairy Tail: I Am the God

After several rounds of fighting, Xiao Yan and Xiao Li's battle ended. Leon came to their side and looked at Xiao Yan, saying:

"Xiao Yan, just ask what's on your mind, time is running out."

Xiao Yan nodded and looked at his eldest and second brothers, saying:

"By the way, eldest brother, second brother, do you know anything about the strange fire?"

"A strange fire?" Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at Xiao Yan in surprise.

"I am now an alchemist, so my most important purpose in coming to the Tagor Desert is to find a different kind of fire!" Xiao Yan said.

"We've never heard of that before!"

Xiao Ding said in a deep voice.

“Um… Young Master Xiao Yan, there does seem to be something strange about the eastern part of Stone Desert City.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was taken aback at first, then suddenly turned his head, staring intently at Qing Lin who was wringing her little hands, and asked urgently, "You know?"

aside.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li also turned their astonished gazes to Qing Lin, clearly unaware of the situation as well.

Under the gaze of the three people in the room, Qinglin's timidity deepened, and she stammered:

"I don't know if my senses were accurate, but about six months ago, I did sense some unusual activity in the southeastern part of Stone Desert City?"

"How did you know? You don't seem to have that kind of ability, do you?"

Xiao Ding stroked the teacup with his hand, and said with some doubt.

"I...I don't know. Six months ago, I sensed an extremely powerful aura outside Stone Desert City."

This aura... is somewhat similar to some of the bloodlines within me, and even the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group is far weaker than him in the face of that aura.

Qinglin whispered cautiously.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were slightly moved.

The leader of the Sand Mercenary Group is a Grand Battle Master! Even he is much weaker than that mysterious figure. Then, wouldn't the other party be at least a Battle King level expert?

"A scent similar to your bloodline? Could it be Queen Medusa?"

Thought for a moment.

Xiao Li suddenly said with some shock, "With Queen Medusa's strength, destroying Stone Desert City wouldn't be difficult, would it?"

Such a terrifying individual actually circled around Stone Desert City without their knowledge?!

Listening to Qinglin's story, Xiao Yan let out a soft breath, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a low voice:

"Can you pinpoint exactly where she stayed?"

"I should be able to. Although half a year has passed, the residual aura she left behind is too strong. I... I should be able to find that place by relying on the trace of blood in my body."

When the topic of that bloodline came up, Qinglin's face clearly darkened, but she still forced a smile as she spoke.

"According to Qinglin, there shouldn't be any mistakes this time!" Xiao Yan said excitedly.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

Leon said it in a calm tone.

"Okay, let's set off tomorrow!"

Xiao Yan smiled.

"Ah."

"Leon said calmly."

....

Chapter 371, Battle of Spirits, Two-Headed Fire Spirit Serpent. (Fourth Update)

Early the next morning, Leon and his group left Stone Desert City and followed the path pointed out by Qinglin into the vast desert.

"Qinglin, are you sure we're here?"

More than three hours later, Xiao Yan stared in astonishment at the flat desert before him. The terrain here was extremely ordinary, with no features that would attract attention.

Flat sandy areas like this are almost countless in the vast desert. Xiao Yan found it hard to imagine that this inconspicuous place actually contained traces of "strange fire"!

Qinglin said softly, "Young Master Xiao Yan, in my perception, the location of the anomaly half a year ago was indeed here."

"Since you're here, then search carefully. The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame must have been born underground. Look closely for any paths leading underground!"

Leon waved his hand and addressed the crowd.

“Alright, in that case, Xue Lan, you should immediately return to the Mo Tie Mercenary Group and find those members who are good at scouting the terrain. Try to find a passage within a day.”

Xiao Ding turned around and gave instructions to Xue Lan.

"Okay, leave this to me!"

Smiling and nodding, Xue Lan quickly turned around, whistled, and a camel galloped over from a short distance away.

With a graceful leap, she mounted the horse, and Xue Lan rode it, kicking up a cloud of yellow dust as they galloped toward the distant Stone Desert City.

After a long time, the members of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group arrived at the location of the sand dunes under Xue Lan's guidance, and they all began to intensively explore the terrain!

"The Sand Mercenary Group is here!"

Xiao Ding, Xiao Yan, Xue Lan, and Leon Qinglin stood on a high place, looking at a group of people in the distance, and said coldly.

"You guys continue here, I'm going to have some fun."

"Leon said calmly."

Immediately, Leon appeared in front of the Sand Mercenary Group!

"who!"

The leader, Mo Xing, saw Leon flying over and exclaimed in horror.

"I am the one who will kill you!"

Leon coldly glanced at the group of more than a dozen people, and then golden lightning bolts surged from his hands, all of which blasted towards the members of the Sand Mercenary Group.

"Run! This guy is too strong!"

Mo Xing screamed in terror and turned to run away!

"Remember, tell your leader to stay safely in Stone Desert City and not come out, or your entire Sand Mercenary Group will be wiped out!"

Leon glanced indifferently at the corpses scattered on the ground, and a voice transmission carrying battle qi entered Mo Xing's ears!

Mo Xing remembered Leon's words in his panic, but his speed did not stop at all. He continued to ride at full speed and fled towards Stone Desert City.

After a day of exploration, the members of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group found the passage into the underground.

After finding the passage, Leon led everyone in single file, all proceeding underground through the pitch-black tunnel.

After traveling for a full hour, the group finally entered the desert floor and arrived at a huge lava pool.

Inside the enormous cavern, fiery red magma flowed slowly, with occasionally huge bubbles rising to the surface.

A moment later, with a soft sound, it exploded with a loud bang, and scorching magma shot out like a brilliant red firework.

"I never imagined that such a terrifying place would be hidden underground outside of Stone Desert City."

His body was enveloped in a layer of deep green light. Xiao Ding wiped the sweat from his face and exclaimed in amazement.

"Yes, what a magnificent underground world of magma..."

Xiao Yan's body was also wrapped in a Dou Qi gauze robe, but even so, the scorching temperature around him made his whole body feel hot.

"The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame should be here. Judging from the situation, it should be inside the magma!"

"Leon said calmly."

"Inside the magma?" Xiao Ding asked in surprise.

"It's up to you."

Leon looked at Xiao Yan and said calmly.

"There seems to be something inside that magma; I can sense its faint, elusive presence... It's very powerful..."

Qinglin stared intently at a certain spot in the churning lava, her emerald eyes gleaming with a faint light, as if she could see through the lava and discern something mysterious hidden beneath.

"Is there something alive?"

Xiao Yan was shocked. There were actually living things in this molten lava that was so hot it could almost melt steel?! This was truly unbelievable to Xiao Yan.

"This creature's aura is not the one I sensed before; this aura is much weaker!"

With a hint of worry in his eyes, Qinglin spoke.

"The two-headed fire spirit serpent is merely a fighting spirit."

Leon took out the Xuanyuan Sword from his storage ring, glanced calmly at the fiery red lava pool, and said.

A muffled boom suddenly echoed from the calm lava lake below, as countless streams of scorching lava erupted in an instant.
