Chapter 490: Lotus Terrace

After a long fall, the passage was pitch black, and I don't know how long it took, Mo Ming and the old dragon turtle finally saw a glimmer of light, but this glimmer of light did not make them feel happy, but immediately became nervous, because the source of this light was the hot lava that had just surged up and was rising.

"Oops!" the old dragon turtle cried out, but it was impossible for them to go back at this point.

"Protect me!" Mo Ming's face changed, and he roared, not only did he not retreat, but suddenly accelerated and rushed into the hot lava below, plunging into the magma, and suddenly a stream of heat rushed in, even with the protection of the old dragon turtle, he could still feel the scorching heat around him, and it was conceivable that the temperature of this magma had reached a terrifying level.

"What do you want to do? Hurry up, the temperature here is too high, even I can't last long, some magma here seems to have been blessed, the temperature is unusually high, and it also has the attribute of corrosive spiritual power. The old dragon turtle said in a deep voice, it is a water attribute dragon species, and it is born with a strong resistance to fire, and in its heyday, even if he bathes in the magma, it will be fine, but the magma here is a little abnormal, and its spiritual power is consumed quickly.

Mo Ming also knew that it was powerful, his divine consciousness was fully opened, and he searched in the magma, the magma here was indeed very abnormal, as the old dragon turtle said, it was indeed very abnormal, not only could it cause harm to the body, but even the divine consciousness was affected, if it were not for the protection of the Ring of Rock, I am afraid that his soul would have been damaged a long time ago.

"Hmm, I found it, in the lower right!" Mo Ming's heart suddenly startled. He found a cave in the mountain under the magma, the hole was not large, only equivalent to a two-person high gate, and his divine sense poured into it, and he found that there seemed to be a transparent barrier outside the cave entrance, which could block the infusion of magma.

"The entrance to the treasure! This must be the entrance to the treasure!" Mo Ming was pleasantly surprised, except for this one possibility, he couldn't think of any other possibility, otherwise who would be full. In the lava heap inside the volcano is dedicated to digging an inconsequential hole.

"Be careful!" just as Mo Ming excitedly swam towards the entrance of the cave. The old dragon turtle's eager voice suddenly exploded in his ears, and Mo Ming's heart was suddenly startled, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly turned to the side. The spiritual power in his body suddenly agitated. Now he slapped a palm around his body.

"Hmm. Something!" The force of the slap was like sinking into the sea, only there was a wave of resistance from the left front, and it was obvious that there seemed to be something in the left front. The divine sense hurriedly swept away, but when he saw the blocking thing clearly, he was puzzled, only to see a thin piece of iron floating in the magma, like a sharp arrow, shooting towards him, and the spiritual power he shot out disappeared strangely when it encountered the iron piece.

"What is this?" Mo Ming wondered in his heart, but then he stretched out his hand, put the iron into his hand, and observed it repeatedly, but no matter how he looked at it, except for the material of this thin sheet of iron, he didn't know anything special at all, "It seems that the reason why it can not be melted in this magma is probably because of its own material." Mo Ming thought in his heart, and put it away casually, he just used this piece of iron as a fragment of a magic weapon.

"Look ahead!" the old dragon turtle shouted eagerly, his tone was a little solemn, Mo Ming frowned, and his divine sense swept in the direction that the old dragon turtle said, but his heart couldn't help but tighten, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he saw a small snake with a fiery red body appear in sight.

"It's ...... Flame Snake!" Mo Ming's heart couldn't help but sink.

Fire snake is a very magical creature, between the demon beast and the monster, like to live in the volcanic magma this extreme anode heat environment, they have wisdom, but it is very limited, most of the time it is just by virtue of primitive instinct activities, but their attacks are extremely powerful, especially in the magma, not only the speed is amazing, the attack power is even more terrifying, can easily penetrate the armor, when he was in the secret realm of Shura, he also jumped into the volcano when he was competing for the godhead, which is why he thought that the treasure entrance existed in the volcano, and the same, where he also encountered the attack of the fire snake, however, this creature is called the Fire Eater Serpent in Shura.

"No, these are no longer fire snakes, but should be called golden snakes, you see the position of their backs, there is a golden thread, extending from the head of the snake to the tail of the snake, that is a sign of their mutation. The old dragon turtle said in a solemn tone.

Hearing this, Mo Ming was stunned, and hurriedly took a closer look, just as the old dragon turtle said, in the middle of the snake back of the fire snake, there is indeed a slender golden line, looming, but through the snake's body, but in the surrounding fiery environment, it is not too conspicuous.

"Mutation?, the fire-threaded snake mutated into a gold-threaded snake?" Mo Ming repeated in surprise, but it was the first time he had heard of it.

The old dragon turtle nodded and explained: " That's right, from the time I just entered the magma, I felt that something was not right, although the temperature inside the volcano is generally very high, but the temperature here is a bit outrageously high, I suspect that someone has made a move, and now seeing these mutated fire snakes, I am sure that there must be a strong person who cultivates the law of fire here to arrange a formation to enhance the fire attribute, although the extreme high temperature and excessively rich fire attribute is a paradise for fire cultivators to practice, but if you live in it for a long time, the body will also be affected and mutated, becoming more extreme, these fire snakes, although they are originally very fast, and their attacks are also very strong, but they also have weaknesses, then defensively, and while gaining speed and attack, they choose to abandon defense. ”

Mo Ming's heart moved, he remembered that the fire devouring demon snake he had encountered in the Shura secret realm before, it was indeed as the old dragon turtle said, although the attack was strong and extremely fast, but the defense was not satisfactory, and once it left the magma environment, all aspects would be greatly affected, and he had also cooperated with the Moon Clan patriarch and others to kill these fire snakes.

"That Golden ......"

"Be careful!"

Mo Ming was about to ask about the special features of the Golden Thread Snake, but the scream of the old dragon turtle suddenly sounded, and Mo Ming's heart moved, and he suddenly raised his hand to slash. The sword qi was vertical and horizontal, but what shocked him was that the sharp sword qi slashed at the back of the fire line snake, but it only drew a spark of golden fire attack, and then looked at the gold line snake, but he couldn't find a trace of injury, the powerful sword qi only shook him back, and in a blink of an eye, it rushed over again.

"What's going on?" Mo Ming was shocked and incredulous. You must know that his current strength is comparable to that of the little cultivator of Shura before. Even if he returns to the Heavenly Spirit Plane and returns to the sect, his strength can also occupy the forefront position among the core disciples, and his attack is already different from what it used to be. Especially after comprehending the eighth-order killing sword intent. His kendo attack. He already had the confidence to kill ordinary opponents of the same level in seconds, but with such an attack, even the skin of this little golden thread snake could not be broken.

"Hey. This is where it is difficult, after the mutation, the golden thread snake is not only faster, the attack is stronger, and the most important thing is that its defense has been greatly improved, and it is even more perverted than the attack and speed, unless it has absolute strength, it is already invincible. The old dragon turtle explained with a wry smile.

"Isn't it possible to deal with them with your old Venerable-level strength?" asked Mo Ming.

Hearing this, the old dragon turtle sighed faintly and replied: "Although it is difficult to deal with the golden thread snake after its mutation, after all, the starting point is low, and the general venerable can naturally deal with it, but I don't have time to compete with them, and they can't break through the old man's shield for a while, but the fire thread snake has always been a social creature, once we are entangled, the consequences ...... You know, that's probably not the only thing we're really worried about right now. The old dragon turtle sighed, and it already felt that more golden-threaded snakes had begun to appear around it.

Mo Ming's heart was shocked, and then he suddenly realized that what they had to do now was to hurry into the cave passage before the more violent magma rushed up, otherwise without these golden thread snakes, this terrifying high temperature would be enough to devour them without even the scum left.

"What are we going to do?" Mo Ming asked with a solemn expression.

"Don't worry, I will do my best to resist the attack of these golden snakes, and I can't be idle, we are already surrounded, all you have to do is to open a way and quickly approach the direction of the cave. The old dragon turtle instructed, the number of golden thread snakes is too much, although he does not pay attention to the attack of one or two golden thread snakes, and can easily block them without deliberately strengthening them, but when hundreds of them attack together, the attack power is not at a level at all, even it has to deal with it carefully, the attack of the golden thread snake, the most famous is the terrifying penetrating power, if you accidentally let it open a hole in its own shield, the hot magma outside will rush in, it can barely resist, but Mo Ming, I am afraid that it will be melted only in the moment of contact, and there is no slag left, so it has to do its best to prevent it, and then it becomes difficult to control its direction.

Mo Ming nodded, his heart moved, he took out the Divine Sword of Zhuxin, staring at the direction of the cave with a solemn gaze, what he had to do was to clear the golden snake that blocked them and the cave, and try to keep the old dragon turtle's shield from being attacked from this direction, which was like kicking a ball, and they were now this ball, if the attack came to the front, the reaction force would bounce them back, so that they could only get farther and farther away from the cave, and if he drove away all the golden snakes in front of him, the force from the rear could instead become the driving force for them to move forward。

This time the heavens didn't seem to be joking with him, and things went very smoothly, under the impetus of many golden snakes, they quickly approached the direction of the cave, although occasionally because the speed was too fast, and there were too many of them, so that he didn't have time to block, but most of the golden snakes from the front were successfully intercepted by him, and these few fish that slipped through the net, even if the attack was behind the shield, but compared to the army of golden snakes in the rear, they could play a role that was insignificant, and in the end, Mo Ming finally successfully passed through the prohibition in front of the cave and entered the cave。

"It's really thrilling!" After entering the cave, the old dragon turtle breathed a sigh of relief and said, but looking at the black pressure outside the cave, the golden snake gathered in front of the cave, Mo Ming also felt a tingling in his scalp, but fortunately, these golden snake snakes seemed to be very afraid of this cave, and none of them dared to cross the thunder pond half a step.

"Let's go, now we have no way back. Mo Ming took a deep breath, turned around, and cautiously groped his way into the depths of the cave. Outside the cave was surrounded by snakes, and they didn't want to go back and experience that disgusting feeling.

The air in the cave is smooth, although it is a little dark and gloomy, but there is no feeling of stuffiness, there is a faint fragrance of flowers in the air, the dark environment has not caused any impact on Mo Ming and the old dragon turtle, here the divine consciousness can not be stretched out without any restrictions, and the passage in front of it has already been swept through by the strong divine consciousness of the old dragon turtle.

"It's a long passage, but there's a gate at the end, it's closed. When my mind reached the gate, I could no longer enter. There seems to be a ban on the gate, and it seems that the exact situation will only be known after reaching the gate. The old dragon turtle told Mo Ming about the results of the detection.

"Is the gate the entrance to the Immortal Mansion?" Mo Ming wondered.

"Hehe, I hope so, it took so much effort. I came here. If you can't enter that guy's immortal mansion yet. All I can say is that the guy is too dark in his heart. The old dragon turtle stretched out his head and replied.

There was no danger along the way, but it made them feel a little uncomfortable. One man and one turtle finally came to the gate.

"Doesn't seem like anything special?" Mo Ming carefully looked at this gate made of gold and steel, in addition to feeling heavy, he did not find anything special, the gate is the same as the general gate of Xianfu, not two open doors, but a whole, and there is nothing wrong with the pattern on it, what is engraved is the figure of a meditating man, maybe the only thing that makes him feel a little strange may be the lotus platform next to the man, which reminds him of the Guanyin in Buddhism in the previous life, because in the eyes of believers in some places, Guanyin is actually a man, but what makes him even more strange is that this man obviously has a lotus platform but why he does not sit on the lotus platform, but sits next to it?

"Anyway, open the door first, be careful. The old dragon turtle didn't know what Guanyin was saying, and it didn't bother to care, and now what it wanted to know most was what was causing behind this door.

Mo Ming nodded, took a deep breath, and then walked forward slowly, and glanced at the meditating man on the door again, then he bent down and grabbed the handle, the position of this handle was placed at the bottom of the door near the ground, obviously the way to open this door is to lift this door.

"Ahh

Mo Ming roared, and suddenly exerted force, and the gate was lifted off the ground with a thud and slowly rose.

"It's so heavy!"

However, at this time, Mo Ming was secretly shocked in his heart, this steel gate was much heavier than he imagined, weighing more than 10,000 catties, even with the powerful body of his Titan clan, he felt very difficult.

"Zha!"

However, just when the door was lifted to his waist, Mo Ming's ears seemed to suddenly sound a soft shout, if there is nothing, I can't hear it really, and I was in doubt, suddenly, my body sank suddenly, but it turned out that the door in his hand became heavier in an instant.

"What's going on?" Mo Ming was shocked.

"There's something strange about this door!" said the old dragon turtle, who had been watching from behind, suddenly spoke, but there was a solemnity in his voice.

Bang!

Mo Ming lightly handed, the door fell back and slammed on the ground, Mo Ming felt the ground under his feet also shook violently, which showed how heavy the door was.

"What's going on?" Mo Ming asked suspiciously, walking back to the old dragon turtle.

"Just now, when you lifted the door, I saw that the man at the door seemed to move, no, to be exact, his mouth seemed to move. The old dragon turtle said with some uncertainty, in fact, he didn't see it too really, but it happened that Mo Ming suddenly lost his strength at that time, obviously it was not as simple as a mistake.

"Huh?" Mo Ming frowned, glanced back at the door, the man on the door was still sitting upright, his expression was peaceful, and there was no change, "I also seemed to hear a soft drink just now, and then I felt that this door suddenly became a lot heavier, originally I thought it was an illusion, but in this way, it seems that I heard it correctly, there is indeed something strange on this door." Mo Ming said in a deep voice.

"Look at the lotus platform next to this person, do you think it's a little strange?" the old dragon turtle suddenly pointed to the man on the gate and asked.

"Lotus?" Mo Ming was slightly stunned when he heard this, looked carefully, but didn't find anything unusual, he looked at it several times, but still didn't find anything wrong, and wondered: "Is there anything wrong with this lotus?"

The old dragon turtle shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I don't know, I always feel that this lotus platform seems to have been seen somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while, and when I look at this lotus platform, I always feel that something is not right, but I can't say what is wrong." ”

Hearing this, Mo Ming couldn't help but take a closer look again, but this time, he also seemed to feel that something was not quite right.

"What's wrong?" Mo Ming frowned, and couldn't help but think of the introduction of Lotus Tai that he had seen in his previous life, he was once obsessed with online games, in order to get the Lotus Treasure in the game, but he did his homework and collected a lot of information about Lotus Tai on the Internet: Pangu opened the world, Chaos Qinglian was destroyed, and it was formed by the Chaos Blue Lotus giving birth to four lotus seeds. It is divided into 12 grades of merit golden lotus, 12 grades of karmic fire red lotus, 12 grades of extinction black lotus, and 12 grades of creation and transformation blue lotus.

"Twelve products...... I know, I know what's wrong. Mo Ming's heart moved, and he suddenly shouted.

"Where?" the old dragon turtle hurriedly asked.

"It is the number of lotus petals, the twelve-grade lotus platform, it should be twelve petals, but this lotus platform is only eleven, one is missing. ”

The old dragon turtle hurriedly counted carefully, and it was indeed as Mo Ming said, there were only eleven pieces, and then it suddenly dawned on him, eleven petals were stacked neatly, and at a glance, it was indeed difficult to see that they were missing. (To be continued......)
