Chapter 20: The Lava Serpent
Situ Fan stood still, looking for a place where the exit would be. It didn't take long to realize that the exit had been tightly blocked by the lava snake in front of him.
Looking at the lava snake in front of him, Situ Fan could also sense that it was definitely not the kind of monster that was easy to deal with. Thinking of this, the ten saints selected by the first principal at that time must be very strong, compared to the ten saints of the current school, it is estimated that they will be thrown several streets.
The lava serpent's body was covered with magma, and the hot magma kept flowing down its thick body from its head, and the letter in its mouth kept spitting out, expanding and retracting back and forth. That cold look in his eyes, as if he wanted to strangle everyone who wanted to pass through its territory. The big snake in front of him didn't feel angry, nor did he hear a roar, these performances made Situ Fan a little surprised, and even felt strange, maybe snakes like to wait and see what happens, and only when the time comes.
The magma is regularly covered with iron mountain rock piles, and to get behind the lava serpent, you must step on the iron mountain rock and dodge the attack step by step. And Situ Fan is now sweating profusely, sweating like rain. The temperature on this level was so high that only the door behind him kept sending wind inside, which relieved the heat a little.
At this time, Dugu Xiao was touching his beard under the Jiudou Tower, walking back and forth. Because he knew that the current Situ Fan had reached the fifth layer. During the period of the first principal, almost all of the Ten Saint candidates stopped at the fifth layer, and they never continued to challenge. For the monsters of the fifth layer, the lava serpent, Dugu Xiao also knows a lot.
The lava snake, also known as the lava anaconda, has been nesting in the hot magma of the ancient forest for a long time, likes to walk alone, and will only come out to find a partner when mating. Fierce by nature, Nobuko's perception is quite keen, so he has always been known as the guardian of the ancient forest. If you want to enter the ancient forest, the first thing you will encounter is this lava serpent.
When molting, the size will be twice as large as before, and the attack power will be doubled, and the first headmaster caught a young snake at the beginning, and after all these years, it is estimated that he is now a behemoth. Thinking of this, Dugu Xiao couldn't help but miss the incident of going to the ancient forest with the first principal.
It was winter that year, and Lonely Xiao was only about 18 years old at that time, and the first principal wanted to cultivate a successor, and he had to cultivate a person who had both responsibility and strength, and this person at that time was Dugu Xiao.
Dugu Xiao didn't expect to be favored by the first headmaster at that time, in terms of strength, many people surpassed him, including Situ Fan's grandfather Situ Gen;
The first principal liked one of the things that Dugu Xiao looked at: resilience. Stay the course and never give up. Although Situ Gen was not bad at that time, he lacked tenacity, so the first principal chose Dugu Xiao between the two.
The successor naturally has to focus on cultivation, so the first headmaster took Dugu Xiao out to test, and then guided him by the way, so that his strength could be enhanced, and the discovery of the ancient forest was also a chance to occur.
Another secret of the Ancient Forest is that it is not somewhere, but a free continent that can be moved, so it is a miracle of miracles to be able to meet the people of the Ancient Forest.
When the original headmaster and Dugu Xiao saw the moving ancient forest by chance, neither of them could describe the landscape in front of them in words.
The entire edge of the continent is a magma sphere, constantly spewing out, and wherever the magma is splashed, it leaves a large crater in an instant. The speed of movement is not as clumsy as expected, but surprisingly fast. Because the entire continent was really huge, gusts of wind were brought up, rushing around, and the black pressure above the ancient forest continent was overwhelming, and an inexplicable sense of terror invaded the whole body.
For the young Dugu Xiao, this is the most incredible continent he has ever seen in his life. Driven by curiosity, the first headmaster jumped up with Dugu Xiao, stepped into the periphery of the ancient forest with two feet, and walked inside.
"Headmaster, are we sure we want to go inside? Dugu Xiao looked at the first headmaster with a worried expression.
The first headmaster understood Dugu Xiao's worries very well, because he might be in danger of dying if he entered, he looked back at Dugu Xiao with a smile: "Don't worry about this, I'm here, it's okay." Let's go in for a moment. If it's really dangerous, retreat. ”
With the words of the first principal, Dugu Xiao naturally felt like a calming agent, and he was not as scared as before. Immediately run to the side of the first headmaster and go all the way.
The first thing that came to mind was a desert with no end in sight. A behemoth suddenly jumped out of the sand, and the two of them were shocked for a moment before they came to their senses and saw the giant lizard appear above their heads. This giant lizard is not as simple as the lizard in the Nine Dou Tower, it is twice as large as the body. Coupled with this pristine desert, not to mention the movement speed, the attack power is also simple and brutal. However, the weakness is still the same, which is the area between the two eyes on the top of the head. With enough force, a single blow can knock the giant lizard down. This is also the reason why the lizard in the Nine Doulou staggered after hitting the wall, coupled with Li Xiaopang's mace, fainting is also normal.
Unexpectedly, when I went inside, I ran into the narwhal shark, the king eater, and the thunder crocodile in turn, each of which was more than twice the size of the monsters in the Nine Doulou, and the attack power and speed were doubled. For the first headmaster, it was more than enough to deal with these monsters.
It didn't take long for him to finally come to the last pass to enter the ancient forest, that is, the guardian of the ancient forest, the lava anacond.
In the Nine Bucket Tower, it is only a juvenile lava anacond, and what is in front of you can be described as not huge, Xinzi is already 2 meters wide, and it can directly roll people into the abdomen. The magma poison on the fangs can instantly stun the opponent, and then corrode it, leaving no bones left, and even the air armor will slowly be penetrated. So don't be hit by magma poison.
And the only drawback of the lava beetle, which can be said to be not a shortcoming, is its seven inches. The lava beetle in front of him was already out of sight just by showing its head, and it was almost impossible to find a place of seven inches.
The first headmaster turned to look at Dugu Xiao and shouted, "Xiao Xiao, you hurry back, I'll go up and test it first." ”
When Dugu Xiao heard the principal's instructions, he quickly ran to a place far away from the lava anaconda. I saw the first headmaster rise into the air with a thunderbolt, right on the head of the lava python, and hit it with a furious volt in his right hand.
The lava anaconda was attacked on the head, and the magma shot out, tilting back slightly, but unscathed, and rushed its head towards the first headmaster.
Dugu Xiao, who was watching the battle below, saw clearly how big the lava was, and the first headmaster could only see a mottled figure under its head.
The first headmaster immediately stood up and blocked the attack. But he couldn't prevent the huge impact of the lava anaconda, and it was quickly knocked to the ground, and with a "bang", the dust flew, and a deep pit appeared in front of him, and this destructive force shocked the young Dugu Xiao.
Before the first headmaster could jump out of the pit, the lava python swept the magma poison from its mouth into the pit. The magma hit all around, the ground was instantly corroded, and a pothole appeared in front of you. Thinking that the battle was over, the lava beetle turned back with disdain and prepared to slowly dive into the lava.
With a "bang", the first headmaster jumped out of the pit unharmed, his whole body was already ragged, and his strong muscles were exposed. pinched his neck and said, "I haven't moved my muscles and bones for too long." Anyway, this stinky snake really has some skills. ”
Dugu Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the principal was safe and sound.
"Xiao Xiao, I'll lure away the big snake's attack, and when its body is stretched, you find the right time to hit it seven inches!" The purpose of the first principal's trial this time was to cultivate Dugu Xiao, and the lava anaconda in front of him must be defeated by Dugu Xiao himself.
Dugu Xiao didn't hesitate at all, and responded, "Understood! Headmaster!" After speaking, he got up and ran to the principal, facing the lava python and assuming a fighting posture.
Before the first principal could speak, Dugu Xiao rushed straight up, and by the time the principal called him, it was too late. I thought it was bad, so I chased after it.
At this time, Dugu Xiao had already jumped into the air and shouted, "Laser water!" An extremely fast column of water attacked.
The lava beetle looked back, but didn't pay attention to the attack, and with a stretch of the word, the attack was instantly dispersed. Immediately, the magma poison shot over, and Dugu Xiao had no strength to prevent the magma poison at that time. Immediately dodged sideways, rolled on the ground several times, and the whole person was dirty.
The first principal immediately stepped forward to help Dugu Xiao up, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Dugu Xiao just said simply, thinking that the lava beetle was so strong that even the laser water that he was proud of couldn't work, and his heart was really hit.
"Now this big snake, with your strength, can't defeat it. It is only possible if its weaknesses are found. So I'll get its attention first, and you just have to find it seven inches away. The first headmaster whispered.
Then, the first headmaster made another leap, using the speed of thunder and lightning, and began to circle the ancient forest. The lava beetle chased after it with its head propped up, and its body slowly emerged from the magma, stretching for dozens of miles, and it didn't even see the tail.
Dugu Xiao couldn't help but sigh how long is this lava anaconda?!
After half an hour of traction, the lower body of the lava beeper slowly became thinner, and it was not far from its tail.
The lava python has been chasing the original principal, and finally shows its tail, but the lava python magma temperature is at least 1500 degrees, and the water attribute will not have any effect at all. But the original headmaster has been trying to lure the lava beetles away right now, and this is not the way to go.
Dugu Xiao didn't think about it so much, he attached water shoes to his feet, and ran directly along the tail of the lava anaconda, and the sound of sizzling under his feet kept coming out. This doesn't last long, the water is evaporated too quickly, and there is not enough reaction time to re-luck the water shoes.
Dugu Xiao was running and thinking at the same time, seeing that the first headmaster slowly couldn't hold on, he thought that he would try that trick this time.
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound, and the water shoes on the soles of the feet instantly turned into skates, and finally succeeded. Dugu Xiao's face showed joy at this time, and there was enough time for this jump to change.
Dugu Xiao came to the seven inches of the lava python and shouted, "Ice Arrow!" The magma immediately dispersed on both sides, shooting directly into the skin.
The lava beetle roared at the sky and finally collapsed into the lava.
