Chapter 22: The Strange Snake

The glimmer of light in the distance was fleeting, and Wang Lung only glanced at it when he saw it, like a phantom, if it weren't for his excellent eyesight, I'm afraid he would have thought that he was wrong.

Wang Lung looked at the passage opposite in a daze, thinking that there must be a fire spirit beast there, the purpose of his sneaking into the hot spring is to destroy the fire spirit beast, and now the passage behind him is blocked by a layer of light curtain, which one of the passages is facing when he comes looks very far-reaching, every time he takes a look, he has an inexplicable palpitation in his heart, as if there is some unpredictable danger.

There are four passages at the crossroads, one is the road when he came, the one behind him is blocked by the light curtain, and the other one has palpitations at a glance, only one has not been explored, not to mention that the fleeting light just now made Wang Lung confirm that the fire spirit beast was on the opposite side.

Thinking of this, Wang Lung looked back at the light curtain, then turned back and ignored it, grabbed the war knife in his hand, and walked towards the opposite passage, when he came to the crossroads, his head turned to the right and looked again, although he also didn't find anything unusual, but there was still a trace of palpitations in his heart, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

Ignoring the others, Wang Lung raised his legs and walked towards the passage where the light just flashed, the light he saw just now was already more than a hundred zhang away, because the visual distance was limited, no matter how far away he could not make an accurate estimate, so he could only search slowly.

After about a meal, Wang Lung estimated that he had left the intersection more than 150 zhang or so, and the passage ahead turned again, but this turn was not a right angle, but a simple right arc, only a slight turn.

Standing at the beginning of the curve, Wang Lung raised his eyes and looked, it was still pitch black in front of him, according to his calculations, the passage in front of him was afraid that he would enter the area where the Pure Land was located if he went further. It's just that the Pure Land is above, and here is underground.

Without hesitation, Wang Lung continued to walk forward, and this time he had only walked thirty or forty zhang before he found that the passage had become winding and light. It's still faint, but the further you go, the stronger the light becomes.

Without stopping, Wang Lung continued to move forward, but the war knife in his hand reached his abdomen, and he was ready to fight at any time.

In a strange environment, where the danger came from, Wang Lung didn't want to lose his life because of a moment of negligence, and he had experienced many trials. None of them can be spent in peace, and in his opinion, it seems that the experience is incomplete without killing something, and the experience that Arlinn gave him is probably no exception.

Turning a corner, Wang Lung was stunned by the scene in front of him, he saw the source of the light, but it was indeed a little strange to see the fluorescent stalactites here, a very large space. It was about fifty zhang square, and stalactites of various shapes were presented in front of his eyes. However, these stalactites are very single in color, all emitting a yellowish fluorescence.

Wang Lung glanced at the space he saw in front of him, and saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he slowly walked over, and at a glance, it was indeed the same as the stalactites that existed on the earth. He couldn't find any difference other than the monochrome color.

Wang Lung was no stranger to what he saw in front of him, there was a pure land inside the sun, and there were rocks and fire trees outside the pure land. There is even a hot spring, and there is a cave under the hot spring, everything Wang Lung has experienced has overturned all the original cognition, even if he sees a human tribe in front of him, he will not feel strange.

When he returns to Earth, he will definitely ask Arlinn, everything here is weird, and he can't figure it out for a while, Wang Lung shook his head slightly, his eyes fell into the distance, he was going to look for the passage, this is just a relatively special place, and there is no fire spirit beast found, it seems that there is still a passage to go.

Wang Lung first glanced at the distance, there was no obvious passageway, frowned and raised his head to look at the top of the image, this look, suddenly there was a phantus in the corner of his eye that could be seen in the limit of the eye, Wang Lung quickly turned his head to look.

As far as the eye could see, there was a bowl mouth thick thing swimming quickly, as if it was the tail of a snake, Wang Lung only saw the snake tail, but did not find where the so-called snake body was, seeing this, Wang Lung couldn't help but be stunned, his body quickly jumped forward a distance, and at the same time as he landed, he had already turned to face the passage where he came.

At the top of the passage, there was a bucket-sized snake head staring at him, the color of the snake head was pale yellow, dotted with countless fluorescent white dots around it, a pair of fiery red eyes looked at Wang Lung without blinking, and the snake letter spat lightly like a flame.

Wang Lung looked at the snake body at the top of the corner of his eye, and made a preliminary estimate that this strange giant snake was about ten zhang long, when the other party appeared above his head, he didn't have time to think about it now, and he was glad that he was not attacked by the other party.

Eyes fell on the snake's head again, his eyes narrowed slightly and looked at each other carefully, and soon Wang Lung found a problem, this snake does not seem to have scales, its body seems to be composed of various crystal nuclei of different sizes, yes, it is the crystal nucleus, Wang Lung saw that the skin of the giant snake was no different from the crystal nucleus of the fire spirit beast he captured, could it be that this snake was transformed by the fire spirit beast?

If your guess is correct, how many crystal nuclei of the Fire Spirit Beast need to be composed of the ten-zhang long giant snake, at least tens of thousands of pieces, I am afraid this is what the Fire Spirit Beast will look like after it has evolved to a certain extent.

The fire spirit beast is very easy to kill, but the giant snake in front of him is probably not so easy to deal with, and Wang Lung really can't see its strength.

Wang Lung didn't have much time to guess what the strength of the giant snake in front of him was, because the giant snake had already opened its huge mouth and was ready to attack, and the snake letter spit and sucked, and its fiery red eyes were already burning.

This giant snake must be related to the fire spirit beast, now I don't see the shadow of the fire spirit beast, but it was blocked by an unknown strange snake first, Wang Lung didn't know what the strength of the other party was, he didn't want to let himself fall into passivity, he was already holding the war knife in his hand, before the strange snake attacked, Wang Lung shot first.

With a leap, Wang Lung's body rushed forward, and the war knife stabbed straight into the eye of the strange snake.

Just as Wang Lung and the Strange Snake were fighting, all the guardians in the Snow Sky Cave Mansion gathered together again, and similarly, Qing'er and Xue Jiao retreated after serving fragrant tea, and they couldn't stay in the room to listen to the elders discuss important matters.

"It's been over half a month, Arlinn. Isn't there any news from Xiaolong?" asked Xue Tian.

Arlinn shakes her head lightly and says, "No, it is said that after Xiaolong is recognized by the Law of Water, with his ability, he should be able to grow a hundred moons in seven or eight days, could it be that Xiaolong is in trouble in the Pure Land?"

Zhong Hui said on the side: "Will that stupid boy leave the Pure Land?"

"Leaving the Pure Land?" Xue Tian groaned for a moment, and then asked, "Do you mean that Xiaolong left the Pure Land to find those demon beasts desperately?"

Zhong Hui nodded and said, "That's just my guess, if not, there is some reason for that little guy to stay in the Pure Land." Unless he doesn't know how to condense dew by the law of water. ”

The old ghost shook his head and said: "That's not it, since Xiaolong can be recognized by the law of water, he must think of the law of water condensation and watering flowers, even if he doesn't understand it at first, but with his wisdom, he can quickly figure it out, seven or eight days may be shorter, but the half-month period is a bit much, have you thought about it." Ever since the palace master left the Pure Land, there has been no vegetation there. ”

Xue Tian nodded when he heard this and said: "Yes, I went to the Pure Land together, that is, that time, if it wasn't for the permission of the palace master, we would not be able to enter the Pure Land in this life, unless we cultivate to surpass the ancestor." ”

Speaking of this, Xue Tian chuckled and shook his head. The same was true for the rest of the Guardians, and Xue Tian said with a long sigh, "At that time. The palace master said that there will no longer be any flowers and trees in the Pure Land, in order to prevent anyone from entering it to make trouble, two guardian spirit beasts were deliberately left outside the Pure Land, so many years have passed, and one of the guardian spirit beasts has disappeared. There is also a loyal guardian of the Pure Land, with the bloodline of the little dragon, the guardian spirit beast will naturally not hurt the little dragon, but don't forget, the disappeared guardian spirit beast. We haven't found any trace of it all these years, and at the same time that the guardian spirit beast disappeared, a fire spirit beast was born on the periphery of the Pure Land, and their number is increasing every year, and now I am afraid that there are tens of thousands. ”

Mo Tianlong said, "Now we are not discussing the issue of the guardian beast and the fire spirit beast, but why the little dragon has not returned. ”

Ao Qing said: "Actually, these two things should be linked, and if anyone here knows the Pure Land best, it is none other than Arlinn's sister. Ao Qing said this, his eyes turned to Arlinn, and he sighed lightly and said, "My sister has always been obsessed with the third palace, and she has not let go of it yet, although I have all been to the Pure Land, I guess my sister knows more about the Pure Land than we do." ”

Arlinn chuckles helplessly and says, "Yes, I've been obsessed with the Third Hall of the Pure Land all these years, and the Ancestor has turned a blind eye to it, so I will desperately send Xiaolong to the Pure Land Experience, for what, I guess I won't say, you know a little bit about it." ”

At this point, Arlinn lowers her head and sighs in her heart as she continues, "Before Xiaotian left, he said to me privately that one of the two spirit beasts guarding the Pure Land was placed by him, and the other did not belong to him, so you should understand. ”

The old ghost looked at Arlinn in amazement, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "You mean that the guardian spirit beast didn't escape, and was still outside the Pure Land?"

Arlinn taps his jaw and says, "I'm just guessing, after the disappearance of the guardian spirit beast that didn't belong to the Howling Sky, hundreds of fire spirit beasts appeared, can't you guess it? With the tens of millions of degrees of heat inside the sun, not to mention you and me, even the ancestor can't easily pass through, hmph! Prevent others from entering the Pure Land to make trouble, to put it so sanctimoniously, if it is not the same bloodline, who can break into the Pure Land, the strength of the guardian spirit beast is comparable to ours, and the disappeared guardian spirit beast wants to come to you also know what race, disappearing?" I'm afraid it's not that simple. ”

"The incarnation of thousands of people, the Yang Essence Fire, the spiritual flame with the same name as the Extreme Cold Flame of the little dragon, is one of the spiritual flames of heaven and earth, that is the ......" Xue Tian muttered, and by the end his voice was too low to hear.

"Haha......" A long laugh attracted everyone's attention, and when it was found that it was the laughter of the old ghost, including Xuetian, they all looked at the old ghost suspiciously, and after the old ghost laughed, he sighed and said: " I'm afraid this matter has nothing to do with us, this is Xiaolong's family matter, whether the guardian spirit beast has disappeared or not, since the palace master has ignored it, why should we worry about it, now it seems that if Xiaolong doesn't deal with the fire spirit beast, I'm afraid he won't want to bring a hundred moon shys back in his life, Arlinn, if I'm not mistaken, the three hundred moon seeds you gave to Xiaolong are probably at least the hundred moon shys of the blue indigo or above varieties. ”

Seeing that Arlinn nodded without refuting, Xue Tian shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Ordinary Baiyue is nothing to be ashamed of, once its quality reaches above indigo, it can have a fatal temptation to the spiritual flame, Arlinn, you are so calculating." ”

Arlinn chuckles and says, "I did have the idea, but I just wanted to give it a try, and now it seems that the dragon is in trouble, but I'm sure the dragon can handle it, and my ultimate goal is to find out what's in that unnamed third temple, it doesn't belong to me, and it doesn't belong to anyone." ”

What can Snow Sky and the other Guardians say about Arlinn's persistence, what can Snow Sky and the other Guardians say.

At this point, the atmosphere in the room became a little dull, and no one continued to speak.

After a long time, Xue Tian sighed and said: "Let's put Xiaolong's matter aside for a while, no matter what trouble he encounters, the time set by Arlinn for him in two months will be up, no matter whether he can grow a hundred moons or not, Xiaolong will come back, and then we will discuss the matter of the Nine Heavens Phantom Yin Array, what should be put in it, you don't hide it, take out everything, if there is any accident in Xiaolong, don't regret it." ”

Wang Lung didn't know that a group of guardians were discussing how to calculate him in the Snow Heaven Cave Mansion, let alone the so-called Pure Land Guardian Spirit Beast, he was now having a headache about everything he encountered in front of him.

Now Wang Lung finally knows where the fire spirit beast comes from, it is the strange snake he just encountered, and the same as he found, the whole body of the strange snake is composed of tens of thousands of crystal nuclei, each crystal nucleus is a fire spirit beast, when he stabbed the strange snake with a knife, the strange snake did not directly confront him, but fell off a few crystal nuclei from its tail, and as soon as the crystal nucleus left the body of the strange snake, it immediately became a familiar fire spirit beast.
