Chapter 20: The Blood Lotus and the Fire Beast

Shen Tianye didn't know that killing a middle-aged man saved himself from a big disaster. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info two fierce battles in a row, his mana consumption was not small, and he didn't dare to stay for a long time at the moment, so he flew towards the depths of the Demon Gate Grotto with Wen Qing after a slight breath.

The Demon Gate Grottoes were very vast, and the two of them flew cautiously for a long time, but they still didn't get out of the fog. Fortunately, the two of them have not encountered any powerful existence since the illusion, and with the help of the clear-eyed spiritual liquid, there are no dangers along the way.

Two days later, the two of them flew out of the fog and entered the interior of the Demon Gate Grotto. The interior of the Momen Grottoes is gloomy, and even the sky is gray, which makes people feel depressed.

After flying out of the fog, the first thing the two saw was a gloomy forest, the forest was dead, the leaves were withered, the grass and trees were withered, and they walked into it, but they felt that the wind was gusting and ghostly. The two of them walked not far before they saw a corpse, whose chest was pierced by a flying sword, and its eyes were protruding. This was followed by the second, and then the third...... The deaths varied, from men and women, to human monks, to monsters.

This Demon Gate Grotto is really dangerous. The more Shen Tianye walked, the more frightened he became, and at the same time, his spiritual sense was fully opened, and he didn't dare to be careless.

"Senior sister, do you have a map of the Demon Gate Grottoes?" After walking a short distance, Shen Tianye suddenly stopped and asked Wen Qingdao.

Wen Qing shook his head and said, "No, didn't the master give you a gold leaf before parting?" There should be a map in it, you can take it out and look at it. ”

Shen Tianye was taken aback when he heard this. Before going down the mountain, Su Yurou did give him a gold leaf, and he also asked Su Yurou at that time, but Su Yurou refused to say anything. Now that Wen Qing mentioned it again, Shen Tianye immediately took out the golden leaf from the storage bag.

I've looked at it several times, but I still haven't found anything, so what's the map? Shen Tianye couldn't help but look at Wen Qing suspiciously.

Wen Qing said: "Of course it's useless for you to look at it like this, you have to enter mana to enter it." ”

I see. Shen Tianye hurriedly injected a mana into Jin Yezi, and Jin Ye trembled slightly, and then quieted down.

"Stupid, type more." Wen Qing said angrily.

Shen Tianye held the golden leaf and continuously injected mana into it. After a while, the golden leaf trembled violently, and at the same time, the surface of the golden leaf began to emit dazzling golden light, and Shen Tianye hurriedly closed his eyes. After a while, I opened it again, only to see the golden leaf shine brightly, and small golden characters jumped out of the golden leaf like stars, and then neatly arranged in front of Shen Tianye and Wen Qing's eyes.

"It's ...... What is the introduction of the Momen Grottoes? Shen Tianye said in surprise.

"There is also a detailed map of the Demon Gate Grottoes and a list of elixirs that the master wants you to collect." Wen Qing added.

Shen Tianye looked back, and sure enough, after a brief introduction to the Demon Gate Grottoes, Jin Ye made a list of elixirs, and finally appended a complete map of the Demon Gate Grottoes.

"The golden leaf has been stimulated," Wen Qing said again, "Now that you put a drop of blood into it, you can put the golden leaf into your body and take it out at any time." ”

Shen Tianye cut off his finger as he said, and dripped a drop of blood into it, and the golden light on the surface of the golden leaf was really closed, and it immediately turned into a golden light and entered Shen Tianye's body. The little golden letters and maps disappeared with the golden light. Shen Tianye's mind moved, and the golden leaf immediately appeared in his hand again, as long as he injected mana, he could browse the information inside again. It's amazing!

The Demon Gate Grottoes were formed by the melee of the major forces when Lingbao was born five million years ago, and are divided into two parts: the outer and the inner perimeter. The inner enclosure was still badly damaged in that great battle, and the space inside was extremely unstable, full of spatial gaps and debris everywhere, and it was extremely dangerous. For millions of years, countless monks have fallen in the inner enclosure of the Demon Gate Grottoes, and many of them have cultivated to the heavens. Since then, few monks have entered the inner perimeter of the Demon Gate Grottoes. Nowadays, everyone usually defaults to the Magic Gate Grotto as the outer part of the grotto.

Compared with the inner perimeter, the outer part of the Momen Grottoes is much more stable and the area is larger. However, this is only relative. In the shocking war five million years ago, the periphery was also badly damaged. The space in some places has also been greatly damaged, resulting in frequent volcanoes, overflowing miasma, and many demons and ghosts breeding, and the environment is extremely harsh. You have to be extra careful when you enter it, too.

Su Yurou highlighted several dangerous places in the periphery that needed special attention in the golden leaf, and then made a list of elixirs, Shen Tianye's task this time was to collect all the elixirs within a year, and then bring them back to the interstellar gate.

Shen Tianye looked at the list of elixirs against the map. Su Yurou asked him to collect a total of six flavor elixirs, namely Blood Lotus, Quenching Bone Fruit, Gushen Leaf, Heavenly Spirit Grass, Dragon Whisker Root, and Wushou Vine, each elixir, the gold leaf has a detailed introduction, and indicated their approximate location in the Demon Gate Grotto. What made Shen Tianye's heart bitter was that it was extremely difficult to collect the six flavor elixirs, and the dragon beard root and black head vine were even more in the inner enclosure.

Within a year, would he really be able to collect all these six flavors of elixir? Shen Tianye couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

I still have to do it. Shen Tianye filtered the characteristics and location of the six-flavored elixir in his heart, and then thought about the map for a long time, and finally decided to collect the blood lotus first.

Blood lotus, like a flame, red like blood, likes high temperatures, and can only grow in magma pools. There are several volcanoes around the outer perimeter of the Momon Grottoes. Shen Tianye checked the map and found that there was a volcano that was the closest to the two, only a few hundred kilometers. With his and Wen Qing's speed, it would take an hour to arrive.

After talking to Wen Qing about his decision, Wen Qing had no objections, and the two immediately set off and headed for the volcano.

Three days later, the two arrived at their destination. In the distance, I saw a kilometer-high mountain peak, covered with snow, but there was a huge crater in the middle. The two flew to the top of the mountain, only to find that the mountain peak was hollow, and the fiery red magma could be faintly seen in it, and the blazing fire gas gushed out from the crater.

"This can't be an active volcano, can it?" Shen Tianye said in surprise.

"I don't know." Wen Qing said, "If it is an active volcano, there must be a blood lotus underneath. If you want to collect the Blood Lotus, you must jump from this active crater and search for it in a magma pool below a kilometer. ”

Shen Tianye said worriedly: "What if the middle volcano suddenly erupts?" ”

Wen Qing said: "Are you afraid? ”

Shen Tianye said: "You're not afraid? ”

Wen Qing said: "I'm not afraid. As he spoke, he jumped down.

"Senior sister!" Shen Tianye was shocked, and wanted to stop her, but he didn't catch her, so he had no choice but to jump down immediately.

With an acceleration, Shen Tianye caught up with Wen Qing and grabbed her hand: "Senior sister, you are too reckless." Since this may be an active volcano, it could erupt at any time. We should have watched before we came down. ”

Wen Qing broke away from his hand and said, "Just speak, don't try to take advantage of me." ”

Shen Tianye was sweating greatly, he really didn't mean to take advantage of her just now. The two of them continued to decline, and the surrounding temperature became higher and higher, and when they descended to 800 meters underground, the two of them could already clearly see the magma underneath, but Shen Tianye couldn't support it a little. At this time, the temperature of the volcano was close to eight hundred degrees, and even if Shen Tianye turned on all his mana, he was a little unable to resist it.

Shen Tianye gritted his teeth and descended another two hundred meters, the temperature at this time had risen to a thousand degrees, and Shen Tianye's mana could no longer stop the invasion of the high temperature. For a moment, the sleeves of his clothes suddenly turned into green smoke and disappeared. Shen Tianye hurriedly used his mana and tried his best to resist the high temperature. At this moment, a small hand as gentle as jade reached over and grabbed his hand. A gentle mana flowed down his palm into his body, and Shen Tianye suddenly felt comfortable all over his body, and the pressure on his body was also reduced a lot.

"Thank you, senior sister." Shen Tianye said. At the critical time, it was Wen Qing who reached out and transmitted mana to help him.

Wen Qing turned his face and ignored him.

Shen Tianye didn't care, looking at Wen Qing holding his hand, his heart was happy: he grabbed Wen Qing's hand in front of him and was directly thrown off by her; Now she took the initiative to hold her hand again - who is taking advantage of whom?

Wen Qing's mana was obviously deeper than Shen Tianye's. She dragged Shen Tianye all the way to fifteen hundred meters below the volcano, and finally, the two of them came to the edge of the magma pool. At this time, the temperature has reached nearly 2,000 degrees.

The two searched around, and soon saw a bewitching red blood lotus growing in the calm magma pool.

"Blood Lotus!" Shen Tianye was overjoyed. Wen Qing also had a happy face. Shen Tianye hurriedly took out a jade box, and then took out a black fist glove from the storage bagβ€”it was the same loot he had scavenged from the black-clothed monk's storage bag when he was in Red Maple Valley. The Blood Lotus is a fire-type spirit flower that grows in a magma pool and contains a strong fire element, so you naturally have to be very careful when taking it.

The two flew to the top of the magma pool hand in hand, Shen Tianye put on the black fist gloves and carefully plucked the blood lotus, but only took the flowers and leaves, not uprooted. As long as the rhizome is retained, with the thick fire element in this place, hundreds of years later, it will definitely be able to give birth to another blood lotus.

Everything was going well, Shen Tianye was overjoyed in his heart, and carefully put the blood lotus into the jade box and put it in the storage bag. Just as he was about to return the way he came, the magma pool suddenly tumbled violently, and a large number of bubbles began to bubble on the surface of the pool, like boiling red oil.

"Oh no, there's something down there. Come on! Shen Tianye looked down and saw a huge sharp horn emerging from the magma pool, knowing that something was wrong, he hurriedly pulled Wen Qing and flew upward.

Soon, an ugly monster head emerged from the magma pool. I saw that this monster was red all over his body, with a mane full of hair, like a male lion, but with a single horn. Seeing that Shen Tianye and the others wanted to escape, they suddenly let out a loud roar. screamed so much that Shen Tianye and the others were dizzy, and they almost fell headlong.

"What kind of monster is this?" Shen Tianye exclaimed.

"It's a fire beast." Wen Qing said with a solemn face: "Fire spirit beast, born with the ability to manipulate the fire element, can be compared to a human adult cultivator when he becomes an adult. It's supposed to be a cub, but it's not something the two of us can fight against. Come on. ”

"Roar-" The fire beast finally jumped out of the magma pool, revealing its full true face. I saw that this beast lion had the head and body of a bull, and its whole body was full of flames, looking extremely powerful and domineering.

"Oh no, this beast is catching up." I saw the fire beast leap upward, and it quickly chased after the two of them with red flames on all fours.

The fire beast was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it chased after the two of them, and as soon as it opened its mouth, a red flame erupted from its mouth, attacking Shen Tianye and the others.

Shen Tianye took out the Rama staff and hurriedly struck it out, and a huge pillar of red light flew out, colliding with the flames spewed out by the Fire Beast. Unlike before, the red pillar of light emitted by Luo's magic wand collapsed with a single blow, and the red flame paused for a moment before continuing to hit the two of them.

Shen Tianye was shocked, Wen Qing opened his mouth and spit out, and the Natal Flying Sword Silver Spirit Sword flew out, turning into a silver light and striking towards the red flame. The red flames were finally dispersed. The Fire Lion Beast was furious, opened its mouth and violently spat out three more flames in a row. The Silver Spirit Sword couldn't resist anymore, Wen Qing hurriedly summoned the Natal Flying Sword back, and took out a blue ice shield from the storage bag to block it in front of him. Three flames hit the blue ice shield one after another, Wen Qing's face turned pale, and the last mouthful of blood spurted out, almost falling from the air.

"Senior sister." Shen Tianye hurriedly hugged Wen Qing and threw it down at the same time, throwing out a black ring.

The black ring was also obtained from the black-clothed monk's storage bag, and after being thrown down by Shen Tianye, it immediately turned into a huge black ring, which covered the neck of the fire beast at once. The fire beast was furious, and its whole body suddenly swelled, but in a moment, the black ring burst. A magic weapon that had been obtained with great difficulty in integrating attack and defense was destroyed in this way, and Shen Tianye couldn't care about being distressed, so he took the opportunity to quickly widen the distance between him and the Fire Lion Beast, and fled upwards without looking back.
