Chapter 106: Brutal Beating
"Green Lotus Core Flame?!"
Xiao Yan hurriedly looked over, only to discover with some shock that the surrounding fiery red magma had inexplicably turned slightly green at some point.
It was as if the green lotus platform within the magma was slowly purifying the magma itself.
'The 19th-ranked on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, Green Lotus Core Flame. Born in the depths of the earth, it has experienced countless temperings, fusions, compressions, and carvings by the earth's fire. It takes ten years to form a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to form a lotus. When it is fully formed, its color tilts toward the green side, and a cluster of green flames is born in the lotus core. It is called Green Lotus Flame, also known as Green Lotus Core Flame. The power of this flame is unpredictable, as it is capable of controlling the power of volcanoes and forming a destructive force of nature!' Xiao Yan quickly recited the introduction of the Green Lotus Core Flame from the Heavenly Flame Ranking in his mind.
The Green Lotus Core Flame was a very unique kind of Heavenly Flame. It was different from the Ten Thousand Beast Flame, Bone Chilling Flame, and Nihility Devouring Flame because strictly speaking, it was a special kind of Heavenly Flame nurtured by a special kind of plant! The Green Lotus Core Flame was more like the nectar of that green lotus.
Xiao Yan's eyes gleamed with excitement as he looked at the green lotus platform deep within the magma sea.
Not to mention the Green Lotus Core Flame ranked 19th in the Heavenly Flame Ranking, even the lotus platform was a rare natural treasure, and its lotus seeds were also invaluable ingredients for alchemy!
'The lotus platform is still here, so maybe the Heavenly Flame hasn't been taken away! Am I really about to get this lucky?' Xiao Yan licked his lips. The lotus platform itself was a kind of heavenly treasure. If it hadn't been taken away, then perhaps the Green Lotus Core Flame inside the lotus flower was also still there!
Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed as the Ten Thousand Beast Flame surged out. It immediately enveloped his body in a protective flame as he entered the Dou Qi Armor state. The green- colored lotus was more than just beautiful. The terrifying high temperature it emitted could instantly melt a person.
He took out a bottle of Ice Spirit Cold Fountain in case of emergency and made all the necessary preparations. The Eagle Wings on his flapped and turned him into a streak of blood-red light as he charged forward.
The expected scorching heat did not arrive as his body entered the green light of the lotus. Instead, the temperature around him strangely lowered by a lot.
"Hmm?"
Xiao Yan was bewildered by this strange occurrence. After a moment of confusion, he quickly regained his composure and scanned his surroundings. His gaze finally settled on the green- colored lotus at the central position.
The green-colored lotus had eight petals, each like the most perfect green jade that was naturally formed. At a glance, it appeared crystal clear, giving one the urge to hold it and never let go.
Within the lotus, there seemed to be a small lotus platform around two to three feet in size. A small fluorescent light emitted from some small holes on the lotus platform. This light seemed to come from the Core-Fire Lotus Seeds that were formed by the agglomeration of the purest fire-type energy.
This green lotus was suspended in the endless magma like duckweed floating and drifting in the vast ocean.
Xiao Yan couldn't even feel happy at the sight of those green Core-Fire Lotus Seeds. It was only when he got closer that he realized the green fire attribute energy his spiritual perception had detected was emanating from these Core-Fire Lotus Seeds.
The biggest prize, the Green Lotus Core Flame, had already been taken away. 'Queen Medusa... I was still too late.' Protected by the Ten Thousand Beast Flame, Xiao Yan reached out and picked up a blood-stained snake scale that had fallen onto a lotus petal.
The only one who could forcibly take away the Green Lotus Core Flame without fearing its backlash was likely Queen Medusa, whose strength was at the peak of Rank 6.
'But why would a Snake-Person want a Heavenly Flame? Moreover, she took the Green Lotus Core Flame half a year ago. If it were the Ten Thousand Beast Flame, it would make more sense, but the Green Lotus Core Flame should be useless to the Snake-People Race. Was it used as a bargaining chip to trade for precious items?'
'No, that doesn't make sense either. Half a year ago, Gu He was also searching for the Heavenly Flame around this area. The desert is the territory of the Snake - People Tribe, so there's no reason Gu He wouldn't know about it when looking for the Heavenly Flame. If the intention was to trade the flame for something else, wouldn't it be best to find a high-grade 6th-tier alchemist?'
"The 6th-tier Zong Breaking Pill can increase the chance of breaking through to the Dou Ancestor realm by 20%. This is also effective for a Rank 6 magical beast attempting to break through to Rank 7. This pill would be incredibly valuable for Queen Medusa who has been at the peak of Rank 6 for a long time.'
'Could it be that Queen Medusa wants something beyond a 6th-tier pill, something that even Gu He couldn't afford to give?'
Just as Xiao Yan was pondering, a black shadow was gradually approaching in the magma. "Do you know that interrupting my thoughts is a very dangerous thing to do?" The moment Xiao Yan's voice fell, a muffled boom suddenly rang out from the calm magma lake behind him. In an instant, countless streams of scorching magma erupted violently. Amidst the flying molten rocks, a Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent abruptly charged out of the magma and bit toward Xiao Yan with lightning-like speed.
Xiao Yan instantly disappeared with a flash of red in his eyes, evading the serpent's attack and lightly stepping onto one of its heads.
"A Rank 4 magical beast with strength equivalent to a 1-star Dou Spirit. Your guts far exceed your strength." A cold smile curled at the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth as the Ten Thousand Beast Flame fully erupted. Its special effect increased his physical strength to the level of a Rank 4 magical beast.
Circulating his Dou Qi, he plunged his body downward and stomped the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent back into the magma.
The serpent burst out of the magma with a sharp screech and launched itself into the air toward him. The erratic sprays of magma stirred the calm magma lake into a frenzy. Pillars of magma soared into the sky one after another, creating a magnificent sight.
Xiao Yan's spiritual perception was fully activated. He sidestepped to avoid the serpent's biting attack, then spun around and delivered a powerful kick to its other head. The terrifying physical strength sent the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent flying dozens of meters away. "Mao Wu, cut down this lotus for me, and don't even think about eating any lotus seeds. I'm
keeping count."

Boom boom boom!!! The sound of violent explosions rang out. Hearing the sounds of battle, Xiao Ding and the others at the cave entrance couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, their
faces filled with worry.
"Will Third Brother be alright?"
"Believe in him!"
Suddenly, a huge black shadow flew over from the distance at extreme speed and crashed into
the rock layer with a loud thud. Snake blood splattered everywhere, even reaching the
entrance of the cave.
It was actually that Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent! Thrown over by Xiao Yan!
"A Rank 4 magical beast?!"
Hiss!! Blood oozed from the corners of the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent's mouth, and large patches of its scales fell off. The once mighty Rank 4 magical beast had been utterly beaten by Xiao Yan without the slightest ability to fight back at all.
It was no wonder. The precious Green Lotus Core Flame had actually been snatched away by someone else. It would be strange if Xiao Yan was in a good mood. This pitiful Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent had undoubtedly become the target of his venting. Hovering in the air, Xiao Yan tightly clutched the Heavy Xuan Ruler, his eyes coldly looking at the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent. This serpent could either be a native magical beast or something Queen Medusa had deliberately left here to guard the Core-Fire Lotus Seeds.
But regardless, Xiao Yan had no intention of letting it off.
The Heavy Xuan Ruler emitted a scorching fire light with a buzzing sound. The roar of ten thousand beasts rang out as Xiao Yan raised it high, preparing to use the Flame Splitting
Tsunami to deliver the final blow.
"Wait, Young Master Xiao Yan!" Qing Lin suddenly shouted.
Xiao Yan looked at Qing Lin in puzzlement and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I feel like I can control it."
Xiao Yan noticed at this moment that some of the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent's bloodn/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
had accidentally splattered onto Qing Lin's lips, and her eyes began to emit a strange green
light!
