Chapter 67: Two-Headed Fire Snake and Vast Sea Shield
Inside the huge underground cave, there is an endless world of magma, in which the fiery red magma flows slowly. Occasionally, huge magma bubbles emerge. Soon after the bubbles rise into the air and leave the magma, they burst with a bang, and drops of hot magma fly in all directions, as gorgeous as beautiful fireworks.
Standing at the end of the passage, Xiao Se, now covered with a fighting spirit gauze robe, looked at the rolling magma world and was so excited that he couldn't help but choke up.
"We've finally come to this." Xiao Se stretched out his right hand, clenched his fist, and said firmly.
"Brother, something is approaching from under the lava. It looks like a demon beast." Long Kui's soft voice suddenly sounded from the magic sword.
This time it was still Longkui's voice. Perhaps because she knew that Xiao Se's trip was extremely dangerous, Longkui handed over control of her body to Hongkui upon arriving in Mo City.
Hearing this, Xiao Se looked carefully. Under the gaze of the system's perspective eyes, he saw that deep in the magma, a moving black spot was rapidly expanding and gradually revealing its shape. It was a giant snake with two heads.
"This is a two-headed fire snake, Long Kui. I will give you control of my body later. Help me subdue this giant snake. Remember not to kill it. The strange fire is in the magma. The magma world is huge. Whether we can find the strange fire as soon as possible depends on it." Xiao Se said slowly.
"Brother, leave it to Long Kui." Long Kui nodded and waited quietly for the attack of the two-headed fire snake.
Xiao Se was not idle either and released Qing Lin from the Ruyi Treasure Bag.
Looking at the sea of fire around him, Qinglin was shocked and couldn't help swallowing hard.
Xiao Se looked at Qing Lin and said seriously, "Qing Lin, I will explain the details to you later. A fourth-level magical beast, the two-headed fire spirit snake, is coming soon. I will control it later. See if you can force it to sign a contract unilaterally as I did with the snake magical beast I caught for you before."
"Qinglin will try his best." Hearing this, Qinglin nodded firmly and said.
The two of them didn't say anything else, just quietly waiting for the arrival of the two-headed fire snake.
Soon, even without the use of X-ray vision, Xiao Se's soul power was able to sense the existence of the two-headed fire snake.
Similarly, Qinglin, who possesses the three-flower pupil of the green snake, also felt it.
"Big brother, it's coming up." Qinglin grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly, her emerald green eyes fixed on the endless fiery red magma, and said anxiously.
"Qinglin, stay here and don't move. I'll go subdue it." Xiao Se nodded, his body trembling slightly, and the purple cloud wings shot out from behind him. He leaped out and shouted in his heart: "Long Kui, I'll leave the rest to you."
"Leave it to me, brother." As soon as Longkui finished speaking, the purple wings behind Xiao Se suddenly turned into a fiery red, and a layer of strange red light enveloped his body. The high temperature that originally made him feel hot disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a cool feeling.
At the moment Xiao Se flew out, the huge body of the two-headed fire snake just rushed out from the magma, opened its sharp teeth, and fiercely bit towards the oncoming Xiao Se.
"court death."
Looking at the two-headed fire snake coming towards her to bite her, Long Kui controlled Xiao Se's body and condensed a huge blood-red sickle that was more than two meters long.
The sickle was swung upwards diagonally, and a blood-red light burst out, hitting the place where the two heads of the two-headed fire snake were connected.
How could a mere fourth-order monster resist Long Kui, who was able to exert the peak strength of a Douhuang? Under the impact of blood-red light, its body was lifted by the impact of the red light, and its entire huge body left the magma and slammed heavily into the ceiling of the dungeon.
"Boom!!!"
There was a violent tremor above the cave, the rocks shattered, and large and small stones fell into the magma.
Longkui controlled Xiao Se and waved his hand. The bloody sickle in his hand dissipated and turned into a long red energy ribbon that bound towards the direction where the two-headed fire snake was hitting.
After a while, the two-headed fire snake tied up like a dumpling was brought to Qinglin.
"Big brother, you are so handsome." Qing Lin stared blankly at Xiao Se, whose temperament had changed drastically and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Uh." Xiao Se pulled the corner of his mouth, pointed to the two-headed fire spirit snake below that was tied up tightly with only two pairs of big eyes showing, and said: "Qinglin, try it."
"Yeah." Qing Lin nodded obediently, his eyes slightly closed, and his mind recalled the scene when he first unilaterally forced the Sand Snake to sign a contract. He silently said in his heart: I must help my big brother, I can't let him down. His emerald green eyes suddenly opened, and three tiny green dots appeared in each pupil.
Instantly, Qinglin's dress and hair moved without wind. After a moment, Qinglin's face showed joy. She looked up at Xiao Se and said with a smile, "Big brother, I'm fine now."
Hearing this, Xiao Se looked at the two pairs of snake eyes of the two-headed fire snake. The cunning and vicious look in the snake's pupils disappeared, replaced by gentleness and loyalty. Immediately, his right hand loosened, and the red energy ribbon automatically dissipated.
The two-headed fire snake that regained its freedom approached Qinglin affectionately, with a flattering look.
"Qinglin, ask it if it knows where the strange fire is?" Xiao Se looked at Qinglin.
Qinglin nodded, communicated with the two-headed fire snake in his mind, and smiled: "Xiaohuo said that the strange fire is under the magma."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Se thought to himself, as expected, and immediately took out a medicinal fruit from the storage ring, wrapped it in the Vast Sea Shield, and then threw it into the magma. The imagined magma splashing did not happen. After a moment, Xiao Se retracted the Vast Sea Shield, and the medicinal fruit in the shield was intact.
"Fortunately, the ability of the Vast Sea Shield to conceal my body is effective, and even the magma cannot reach it. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to step into this high-temperature magma of tens of thousands of degrees, let alone extract the strange fire."
After all, Xiao Se does not have the protection of Yao Lao's bone spirit cold fire, nor does he have the cold blood like Medusa, which can ignore the high temperature of magma.
As for whether Long Kui could withstand this temperature, Xiao Se didn't dare to bet. Because if he asked, Long Kui would answer yes even at the risk of seriously damaging her vitality.
"Qinglin, just wait for me here for a while. I will follow the two-headed fire snake to look for the strange fire under the magma." Xiao Se rubbed Qinglin's head and said with a smile.
He did not choose to put Qinglin into the Ruyi Treasure Bag. In the underground magma world, good and bad fortune are unpredictable. If a fierce battle occurs, the Ruyi Treasure Bag will be knocked off and fall into the magma world. He would have no place to cry then.
"Big brother, be careful." Qinglin nodded and then said to the two-headed fire spirit snake: "Xiaohuo, take big brother to find the strange fire quickly and don't cheat. Go early and come back early."
After more than half a month of getting along, Qinglin also knew the capabilities of the Vast Sea Shield, so he was not worried that Xiao Se would be swallowed by the magma if he entered it.
"Hiss" the two-headed fire snake seemed to understand Qinglin's words. It turned around and sank into the magma, revealing a fiery red snake tail.
Xiao Se was quick-witted and leaped over to grab the snake's tail while releasing the Vast Sea Body Shield to wrap his body. Then, he and the two-headed fire spirit snake were completely submerged in the magma.
