Battle Through the Heavens: Even without the Burning Flame Technique, I, Xiao Yan, still became an e

The temperature of ordinary magma is generally around 1,000 degrees Celsius, but the temperature of the magma pool here is stable at around 3,000 degrees Celsius because it nurtures a strange fire.

Even a Dou Huang level expert cannot stay here for long.

However, he possessed the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, whose temperature was already above 10,000 degrees Celsius. Flames below 10,000 degrees Celsius could not cause any harm to Xiao Yan at all.

However, the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire is only ranked twenty-second on the Strange Fire Ranking, and given that it was only recently created, it would quickly fall into a disadvantageous position if it encountered other Strange Fires.

This is also why Xiao Yan is so eager to find the second Strange Flame.

The relationship between different flames is not a simple one plus one. All different flames have the instinct to devour each other. If different different flames can be fused together, the new flames that are born can even jump several places in the rankings!

Blood-red flames enveloped Xiao Yan, but as he went deeper, the internal pressure increased. However, the two-headed snake showed no sign of stopping and continued to descend rapidly.

As time went on, even Xiao Yan began to feel a little pressure.

Fortunately, the temperature in this lava pool was acceptable, not as terrifying as when we encountered the Netherworld Poison Fire before.

Although the Netherworld Poison Fire is only ranked twentieth, there is a sixth-tier magical beast, the Miasma Toad, nearby.

It seems that the strange fire and the miasma toad have reached some kind of symbiotic relationship. If it is forcibly taken away, even a Dou Zong below the three-star level would probably be poisoned to death by the terrible poison fire.

It was precisely because the power of the Miasma Toad was too terrifying that Xiao Yan would not consider it for a long time.

However, for the sake of Little Fairy Doctor, it's only a matter of time before they clash with the Miasma Toad.

The more strange fires he controls, the stronger his divine runes become, and the stronger the strange fires he can deal with—it's a virtuous cycle.

While pondering, Xiao Yan unknowingly descended another thousand meters, and his patience was gradually being worn down.

"Is this guy lying to me?"

Xiao Yan didn't doubt Qing Lin, but he really couldn't trust this two-headed snake.

"Give me ten more minutes. If there is still no trace of the strange fire, the item will be returned."

Xiao Yan then calmed himself down and continued to descend, while the two-headed snake did not look back, but accelerated its descent, carrying Xiao Yan down with it.

"Eight minutes!"

"Five minutes!"

"Three minutes!"

"One minute!"

……

"This guy is definitely playing me, let's retreat!"

Xiao Yan's patience was finally exhausted, and he prepared to return.

Just then, the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire within his body suddenly reacted, and the little puppy actually broke through his divine rune space and came outside his body.

"Woof woof!"

The blood-red puppy barked twice at Xiao Yan, then followed the two-headed snake as it crept down.

Unlike Xiao Yan, who needed to cover his body with a different kind of fire, the little puppy seemed to be in his element in this magma pool.

With the puppy's affirmation, Xiao Yan finally dispelled his doubts and continued to follow.

"Woof woof!"

Every so often, the puppy would bark, calling for Xiao Yan to find its location.

Xiao Yan completely trusted the puppy and continued to descend in the direction it was in.

"Woof woof, woof woof!"

The puppy's voice stopped somewhere below, and Xiao Yan was overjoyed. Could it be that they had arrived?

With that thought in mind, he quickened his pace and soon arrived at the location of the puppy.

Sure enough, there was an area enveloped in green light in front of it, and the temperature in this area had more than doubled!

As for the two-headed snake, it dared not approach any further and only dared to hide outside the green light.

"Well done!"

Xiao Yan was naturally praising his little puppy, and then recalled it back into his body.

The next place I'm going to is even hotter and more stressful, so I need its own body to protect me.

The crimson flames on Xiao Yan's body became even more concentrated, and then he directly entered the green light.

At the center of the light, a jade-like blue lotus floated, and the green light emanated from it.

"This is……"

Xiao Yan recalled the descriptions of the strange fires in the medicine book that Sheng'er had given him. Apart from the first three strange fires, which were very mysterious and basically only had names and appearances, the descriptions of the other strange fires were quite detailed.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, ranked nineteenth on the list of strange flames, is a flame that is born from the earth's core thousands of meters below the surface. It takes ten years to form a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to form a lotus. When it reaches its full potential, it is often accompanied by an eruption of earth fire. On its azure lotus, there is a wisp of white flame, which is called the Azure Lotus Flame, also known as the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

"It's actually the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame!"

Looking at the perfectly formed green lotus in front of him, Xiao Yan was extremely excited. He was glad that he had discovered it early, otherwise, if it had been fully formed, the erupting earth fire would have completely engulfed the entire Stone Desert City!

It has to be said that Elder Hai is reliable. I never expected that on my first search, I would find the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame in the eastern part of the desert.

Xiao Yan held his breath and summoned the puppy. Even though he was now protected by a strange fire, it was difficult for him to directly touch other unclaimed strange fires, let alone the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, which ranked higher than the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire.

The wisest course of action is to first let the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame fight each other to deplete the power of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. Once it is weakened, you can then open your Divine Rune Space and take it into your Divine Rune Space!

However, when Xiao Yan looked at the center of the green lotus, he found that the lotus heart was empty, and there was no white lotus heart flame as he had imagined.

This scene left Xiao Yan speechless, frozen in place for a long time without reacting.

I never expected that after going through so much trouble to get here, I would find that the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame had already been taken by someone else!

"Woof woof."

Just as Xiao Yan was feeling utterly dejected, the barking of a puppy brought him back to reality.

Yes, every day, thousands of people in this world search for strange fire, spending their entire lives without even seeing a glimpse of it.

But I obtained a strange fire early on, so what is there to be disappointed about?

"Thank you, little dog. I was just unlucky this time. We'll look for other strange flames next time."

Xiao Yan patted the puppy's head and looked at the green lotus again.

At the center of that strange fire, a colorful scale fell. Despite the high temperature, it was not burned, demonstrating the strength of its material.

"These are...colored snake scales, could it be her?"

The only person in the entire Tagor Desert with these scales is Queen Medusa of the Serpent People.

She had already advanced to the peak of Dou Huang many years ago, so it's not hard to understand why she was able to come here.

Xiao Yan couldn't understand why she wanted to find the strange fire. As a snake-person, her attributes clashed with the strange fire, making it impossible for her to absorb it.

Unless a fire-attribute cultivator is willing to use themselves as a bridge to help her transition to the strange fire, it will inevitably lead to her death.

This method is unique to Sheng'er and the mysterious old man; no one else could possibly master it.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a little better. Perhaps the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame was still there. Queen Medusa must have had other uses for seizing the strange flame, so he still had a chance!

Then, Xiao Yan glanced at the almost intact green lotus and smirked: "It's a pity that Queen Medusa is not an alchemist after all. This green lotus is also a rare and precious material, but she just left it here and did nothing. It's perfect for me."
