Chapter 152 Three-Headed Python
The four element detectors were arranged in four different positions, and soon everyone obtained the accurate location coordinates.
Following the guidance of this coordinate, the ground gradually became hot, which was an obvious sign of the existence of the spiritual seed.
"It's so hot!" Zhao Manyan cast a water shield on himself and couldn't help complaining.
It’s worthy of being called a burning brazier, the weather is so hot.
The people nearby were also finding it hard to bear. Mo Fan, who practiced fire and had strong fire resistance, had no fire resistance and it was difficult for them to endure such high temperatures.
"Waterbending!"
Xu Mu quickly cast a water shield on Lingling. Although the others also felt a little hot, as mid-level mages, their physical fitness was far superior to that of ordinary people and they could withstand temperatures of fifty or sixty degrees.
In comparison, Lingling is just an ordinary person, and such a high temperature makes her feel very uncomfortable.
Mo Fan noticed that Xinxia's cheeks were red from the sun and she was sweating profusely. He was worried that she would not be able to bear it, so he said to Xu Mu, "Muzi, give Xinxia a water shield as well."
Xu Mu nodded slightly, and casually summoned the thin water elements around him, condensing them into a spiritual water satin, covering Xinxia's body.
The fire and earth elements are extremely abundant in the northern corner of the Burning Plain. Casting fire magic and earth magic here can gain a huge power bonus.
But for water or ice magic, the environment here suppresses them, greatly reducing their power.
The power of a level one intermediate water magic is probably not as strong as a level five fire magic.
"Look, there's a pothole ahead!" Zhang Xiaohou hurriedly reminded.
The vision was blocked before, but now as the sand and dust gradually settle, the scene ahead begins to become clear, revealing a huge pit with a diameter of about one kilometer.
"No wonder the temperature around here is so high. It turns out there is a fire elemental spirit seed hidden in the pit in front." Lingling said.
This crater seems to have been formed by a meteorite impact. Its huge size is shocking, like a miniature basin.
The inside of the pit was extremely dry, and the surrounding ground was covered with cracks. Flames were jumping in the cracks. Their flames were goose yellow in color. From a distance, they looked like half-ripe wheat fields swaying in the breeze. The scene was very strange.
In the center of the pit where the flames were fluctuating, there was a ball of fire that was completely goose yellow in color, suspended at a height of about two meters.
This ball of goose yellow flame is exactly the fire elemental spirit seed!
"There seems to be no demons guarding the surrounding area?" Zhang Xiaohou used wind magic to quickly patrol the surrounding area and returned to report.
Usually, demonic creatures cannot directly refine spirit seeds into their own power like humans can. They need to gradually adapt and absorb the energy released by spirit seeds by devouring them. Only after their bodies have fully adapted to the energy of a certain spirit seed can they refine it into their own source of power.
This is a long and complicated process, so once a spirit seed appears, if it is discovered by a demon first, then the demon will become the guardian of the spirit seed.
Perhaps it was because the intense residual heat left by the fire had not yet completely dissipated, causing the demons living here to hide in their nests out of fear and not dare to go out easily.
Or maybe it was because this spirit seed had just been formed and had not yet been noticed by demons, so no demons came to guard it.
Regardless of the reason, Xu Mu and his team are undoubtedly the biggest beneficiaries.
After confirming that there were no monsters around, Mo Fan, the only member of the team who practiced fire magic, jumped into the pit without hesitation, successfully obtained the elemental spirit seed, and carefully placed it in a special container.
"Now I begin to believe that the fire of the calamity really staged a grand banquet between heaven and earth on this burning plain..."
Seeing Mo Fan easily obtain the spirit seed, Zhao Manyan couldn't help but say excitedly.
This fire-attributed spirit seed is of extremely high quality. Its flame is goose yellow in color, which is the ideal flame for making high-level magic tools. I believe that those financially strong blacksmiths will be willing to pay a high price to buy it.
Such high-quality spiritual seeds can be obtained so easily, which shows that in this event, spiritual seeds are just insignificant appetizers.
God knows, during the exploration of the northern corner of the Burning Plain, will more shocking treasures suddenly appear...
Such as elemental soul seeds!
The northern corner of the Burning Plain is known as the Chinese Fire Bowl. Even if an elemental soul seed appears there, no one will be surprised. The price of a soul seed is at least hundreds of millions. If it is a soul seed with a domain effect, the starting price will be 800 million!
Eight hundred million!
If the seven of them divide the wealth equally, then each of them can get at least over 100 million!
After collecting the elemental spirit seeds, everyone continued to move forward. Zhao Manyan's cousin Chen Ying didn't seem to be very interested in Nirvana Fire. Instead, she couldn't wait to find other treasures and kept urging everyone to move forward faster.
"There's something wrong with Chenying." Lingling stared at Chenying's back and said in a firm tone.
"I can see that the others are here to look for rare treasures. They're happy as long as they're valuable, but she's obviously here to look for something specific," Xu Mu said.
"Besides, she is very anxious..."
Having said that, Xu Mu stopped and turned to look in the direction of the Shawang River. If nothing unexpected happened, people from the Dunhuang Military Region and the Zhao family should be on their way.
"Is there something wrong with the Shawang River?"
Lingling noticed that Xu Mu was staring at the direction of the Shawang River, and couldn't help but think of what Xinxia had mentioned before, that the White Sand Demon Soldiers had suddenly become irritable and restless.
"The space on the other side of the Shawang River has become very unstable." Xu Mu said.
"The space is unstable!"
Lingling showed a surprised expression after hearing this:
"Could it be that someone released a powerful spatial magic in the Shawang River, causing all the demons in the Shawang River to become irritable and restless?"
“Being able to cause an entire river of demons to go berserk is probably not something a simple space mage can do.” Xu Mu shook his head.
If he remembered correctly, Sha Yuan appeared in the Shawang River at this time, and moved to the ancient capital again and again.
"Let's keep moving forward. The situation over at Shawang River won't pose a threat to the northern corner of Zhuoyuan." Xu Mu said as he quickened his pace and caught up with the people in front.
Although Lingling was curious about what could make the Shawang River, which almost ran through half of the province, so restless, she also knew that the reason why the Shawang River, which ran through half of the province, could become so irritable was definitely not something they could explore at the moment.
It is better to look for Yan Ji honestly.
……
……
Fire Cloud Forest!
The leaves of the Fire Cloud Tree are like flaming red maples, covering the ground and forming a bright and soft carpet.
When you step on this carpet, you will deeply feel the unique warmth and softness.
The appearance of each Fire Cloud Tree is strikingly similar, making it almost impossible to distinguish them, which makes everyone feel a little dizzy.
“There shouldn’t be any monsters here, right?” Zhao Manyan swallowed. The identical Fire Cloud Trees all around made the forest look like a maze.
According to what the teacher said in the demon class, the more bizarre the place, the more likely it is to hide powerful demons.
The Fire Cloud Tree Maze is obviously a strange place. If nothing unexpected happens, there must be a powerful demon hiding there.
“Old Zhao, why are you so timid now?” Mo Fan patted Zhao Manyan on the shoulder and said calmly:
"Don't worry, I am a high-level mage after all. Even if I can't defeat the other party, I can still lead you guys to escape."
“Have you learned the Sky Flame Funeral?” Zhao Manyan asked.
“Uh… almost there.” Mo Fan said awkwardly.
"You haven't even learned the Sky Flame Funeral, and you still dare to call yourself a high-level wizard?"
Zhao Manyan's face darkened instantly. A high-level mage who didn't know how to cast high-level constellations wouldn't be much more powerful than a mid-level mage like him.
"It has only been a short time since I broke through to the advanced level. How could I control 343 stars and learn advanced constellations so quickly?"
Mo Fan argued, and then looked at Xu Mu who was standing beside him: "Muzi, how long did it take you to learn the constellations?"
"It seems like two or three months." Xu Mu said after recalling.
His ability to control the stars is relatively strong, especially after he plundered the power of chaos from the wolf girl. Even if the newly born thunder stars are disobedient, he only needs to punish them appropriately and they will obey him obediently.
"What about the Space System?" Mo Fan asked again.
"It's hard to say. I stayed in the Three-Step Tower for a long time before I learned high-level space magic." Xu Mu shook his head.
His spatial cultivation was entirely enhanced by the training enhancement provided by the Three-Step Tower.
Without the three-step tower, he would probably still be in the star-controlling stage.
When Chen Ying heard about Xu Mu's cultivation, her eyes widened in surprise.
It turns out that this person is a high-level dual-system expert, and one of the systems is the extremely rare space system. With this level of strength, no player from the national government can escape this!
Such a strong man has not awakened the fire magic, what is he doing in the northern corner of Zhuoyuan? Is he here for the Fire Tribulation Fruit?
"There are demons here." Lingling said, pointing to the huge crawling trace ahead.
The crawling traces were obviously left by a snake creature, and the creature was very large.
"Everyone be careful. I can't guarantee that I can save all of you." Xu Mu said with a serious expression.
After all, he was just a high-level wizard. Although his magical power was comparable to that of a high-level wizard, his reaction speed and perception were far inferior to those of a super-level wizard.
In case there were multiple demons attacking, he couldn't guarantee that he could save everyone.
Everyone nodded seriously and continued on their way. Their destination was Pingdingshan in the distance.
Suddenly, the fiery red leaves were pushed aside violently, as if some creature was moving quickly among them.
Amid the flying leaves, Xu Mu caught a glimpse of a fiery red snake rapidly approaching this side. Although its body was not as huge as the totem black snake, it was still about fifteen or sixteen meters long.
The most striking thing is that this snake has three heads. The left head is dark brown and the skin is as hard as iron, as if it is a snake head made of rock.
The head in the middle is fiery red, and its scales are engraved with eye-catching fire patterns. The details are so exquisite that you can clearly see the texture inside the fire patterns. The eyes flash like flaming eyes, which is intimidating.
The head on the far right is green, a color that reveals its strong toxicity. Its exposed fangs appear extremely dangerous and frightening.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
As the three-headed python smelled the scent of humans, its extremely ferocious and bloodthirsty nature, which posed a huge threat to humans, began to reveal itself.
Commander level!
After feeling the powerful aura emanating from the three-headed python, everyone's faces turned pale.
This three-headed monster python is by no means an ordinary commander-level creature, but a strong one among the commander-level, at least with the strength level of a mid-level commander!
“Zhao Manyan, you’re such a bad-mouthed person!” Mo Fan couldn’t help but curse, and then he began to cast shadow magic.
“Damn it, how can you blame me? This forest is so strange, so why is it so strange that a commander-level demon appears here?” Zhao Manyan felt very wronged.
"Brother Fan, Brother Zhao, let's find a way to deal with this giant python first." Zhang Xiaohou's face fell beside them. It was already this late, and these two brothers were still arguing.
"My mind can't calm it down at all." Xinxia, sitting on the back of the Swift Star Wolf, closed her eyes tightly, opened them again after a moment, and shook her head.
The three-headed python quickly approached the crowd, and its three huge heads opened at the same time, releasing deadly attacks.
Rocks, flames, and poisonous mist intertwined to form a deadly attack range, whizzing towards the three people.
Xu Mu's eyes were as cold as ice. With a slight movement of his mind, he used his mental power to control the space in front of him, causing it to instantly condense into an extremely solid invisible wall.
The invisible wall's defensive power was so strong that it could rival high-level defensive magic. It easily withstood attacks of three different attributes without being affected at all.
Afterwards, Xu Mu began to construct a thunder constellation. 343 stars danced in the sky, quickly found their respective positions, connected the star tracks, and drew a magnificent star map. Finally, they were interwoven into a huge thunder constellation, whose purple-red light enveloped the entire Fire Cloud Forest.
The three-headed giant python obviously noticed the extraordinary nature of this group of humans and was about to escape, but the thunder constellation had been completed, so how could Xu Mu let it go easily.
A beam of purple-red light burst out from Xu Mu's hand, instantly penetrating through many Fire Cloud trees and startling many Fire Skylarks.
Finally, it accurately hit the head of one of the three-headed pythons, causing its head to explode instantly, with blood, flesh and brains splattered everywhere.
Lightning has a strong ability to spread. It instantly spreads along the exploded head and quickly spreads along the opponent's neck to the other two heads.
The power of annihilation is activated all the time, ruthlessly destroying the flesh and blood tissue in the opponent's body.
In just a moment, everyone witnessed obvious dents in many places on the bodies of the three giant pythons, as if the entire piece of meat had been swallowed.
"Fizz!"
The other two heads of the three-headed python let out shrill wails, obviously suffering unbearable pain.
The power of thunder and lightning has destroyed part of their flesh and blood, and the tremendous pain makes them unable to control themselves.
Moreover, the lightning spread along the flesh and blood to the necks of the two heads, making their pain even more intense.
