As Qinglin's mind moved, the small snakes wrapped around Qinglin's wrists fell to the ground, and their bodies gradually grew larger, returning to their original size.
According to Xiao Ling's investigation, there are four second-level snake monsters, one third-level snake monster, and a green phosphorus snake with a cultivation level of fourth level.
Touching Qinglin's little head, Xiao Ling praised: "As expected of Qinglin, now he can even subdue a fourth-level monster. Maybe I will have to ask Qinglin to protect me in the future."
Hearing Xiao Ling's praise and feeling the warm touch on her head, Qing Lin lowered her head shyly. Her cheeks were already stained with a light blush, making her look very attractive.
He replied to Xiao Ling: "Then when Qinglin becomes very strong, Qinglin will protect the young master's safety."
Xiao Ling smiled slightly when he heard Qing Lin's reply. Although Qing Lin had the help of the Green Snake Three-Flower Pupil, his cultivation speed must be very fast, it was completely incomparable to ordinary practitioners.
However, with foresight and the system lottery, Xiao Ling is confident that his strength will always remain above Qing Lin. Anyway, with the Burning Technique, swallowing the strange fire to improve his cultivation, the speed of improvement is not something that ordinary people can match.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ling stopped thinking about these things, took his hand back from Qing Lin's head, and said to Zi Yan and Qing Lin: "Since you are all back, I have prepared the elixir needed to devour the strange fire. Next, let's set off to find the strange fire hidden in the Tagor Desert."
Hearing this, Qinglin and Ziyan nodded, indicating their agreement with Xiao Ling's arrangement.
With a slight nod, Xiao Ling called out Rayquaza, who had not been to work for a few days.
After saying a few words to his sleeves, the black Rayquaza emerged from Xiao Ling's sleeves and appeared in front of Xiao Ling and the other two.
Seeing Qinglin's surprised look, Xiao Ling smiled and explained to Qinglin: "Qinglin, this should be the first time you see this guy. Its name is Liekongzuo. It is a magical beast I trained and one of my best companions."
After listening to Xiao Ling's explanation, Qing Lin greeted Liekongzuo and said, "Hello, Liekongzuo, I am Qing Lin, the young master's sister."
Now that Rayquaza is a sixth-rank magical beast, his IQ is no different from that of humans. Naturally, he can understand Qinglin's words. He nodded, walked forward and rubbed Qinglin's face to show his closeness to Qinglin.
After introducing the Sky-Splitting Seat to Qinglin, Xiao Ling sat on it and said to Qinglin and Ziyan, "Qinglin and Ziyan, you should also sit on it. With Akong's help, we can save a lot of time and energy in searching for the Strange Fire."
After hearing Xiao Ling's words, the two girls nodded. Zi Yan took Qing Lin's little hand, jumped lightly, and landed on the back of Liekongzuo with Qing Lin.
Seeing that the three people had already sat on it, Rayquaza began to twist its body and flew into the air.
……
Standing on top of the Splinter Cell, Xiao Ling took out the Strange Fire Map he got from Hai Bodong from the storage ring. He cast his eyes on the information depicted on it and saw three flame icons marked on the map. The locations of these three icons were where the Strange Fire was most likely to appear.
According to his recollection of the original plot, Xiao Ling thought about it and quickly remembered the location of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire, which was the eastern area of Shimo City.
Patting Rayquaza's head, Xiao Ling pointed to the east of Shimo City and said to Rayquaza, "Akong, fly in that direction."
Hearing Xiao Ling's instructions, Liekongzuo nodded slightly, twisted his slender body with force, and his speed increased a bit. He broke through the clouds in front of him and flew towards the east of Shimo City.
……
The vast desert is filled with yellow sand.
Xiao Ling, Zi Yan and Qing Lin came to a flat desert and stopped.
"Xiao Ling, are you sure it's here?" Zi Yan looked at the flat desert in front of her with astonishment. The terrain here was extremely ordinary, without any features that could attract people's attention. There were almost countless flat sands like this in the vast desert. It was hard for Zi Yan to imagine that there were traces of "strange fire" in this inconspicuous place.
Xiao Ling put the map with the information about the strange fire into his ring, smiled noncommittally, and answered Zi Yan mysteriously: "Who said that the strange fire would definitely appear in the desert? Otherwise, it would have been discovered by someone long ago. How could it be our turn to find it?"
Hearing this, Zi Yan scratched her head and said in confusion: "If it didn't appear in the desert, could it appear underground in the desert?"
Patting Zi Yan's little head, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Congratulations, you guessed the correct answer, but it's a pity that there is no reward."
Taking back the hand that was stroking Zi Yan's little head, Xiao Ling squatted down, touched a piece of yellow sand under the ground, closed his eyes, and the soul perception power between his eyebrows spread out, and began to explore the situation under the ground.
Now that Xiao Ling's soul perception had reached the spiritual realm, the situation underground appeared in Xiao Ling's mind like a topographic map, and Xiao Ling easily discovered the method to enter the underground magma world.
Xiao Ling withdrew his hand, stood up, and said to Qing Lin and Zi Yan: "I have found the passage to the underground, you come with me."
After walking for a distance in the north direction, the three of them arrived at a slightly concave sand area.
Xiao Ling activated his fighting spirit and with one palm he dispersed the sand dunes covering the cave entrance.
After the sand dunes covering the entrance of the cave were cleared, a hole about one and a half meters in size was blasted out in the sunken land. Glancing inside the hole, it was pitch black with a slightly hot air rising from it.

Chapter 89 Going Underground
Zi Yan poked her head out and looked around the cave entrance, and asked curiously, "Is this the place?"
"Haha, yes. The entrance to the cave here was originally blocked by yellow sand. If it weren't for my powerful soul power and the Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame in my body not being able to detect some residual breath of strange fire here, I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to discover it." Xiao Ling replied with a smile.
Hearing this, Zi Yan said impatiently: "Then let's go down quickly."
After saying that, Zi Yan took out a moonstone from her ring and threw it into the cave entrance.
The faint light emitted by the moonstone rolled several times in the dark cave and then gradually disappeared completely.
Looking at the rapidly disappearing moonstone, Qinglin frowned slightly and said softly: "It seems that this passage is not a straight line."
"Well, according to my soul perception, there are more than ten passages below. When we reach the fork in the road, I will use my soul power to find the correct direction leading to the underground." Xiao Ling replied to Qing Lin.
Waving at Qinglin, Xiao Ling said: "The temperature in here is still too high. Your cultivation is too low now. Stay with me."
Hearing this, Qinglin nodded obediently and walked to Xiao Ling's side.
Xiao Ling glanced at the charming green pupils, smiled slightly, then stretched out his arms and embraced Qinglin in his arms while looking at her stunned little face.
Being held in Xiao Ling's arms, Qinglin's little face gradually turned red. She lowered her head, with a thousand thoughts in her mind.
With a light chuckle, Xiao Ling gestured to Zi Yan, tightened the soft body in his arms, and jumped into the dark cave first.
Seeing this scene, Zi Yan behind him followed Xiao Ling's steps without hesitation, and with a light leap, followed behind Xiao Ling.
In the dark passage, Xiao Ling hugged Qing Lin tightly in his arms. The two of them kept sliding down with the help of the slope of the passage. In Qing Lin's little hand, she was holding a moonstone. A faint and soft light emanated from it, allowing Xiao Ling to tell whether there were any obstacles on the road ahead.
Not far behind Xiao Ling and the other man, Zi Yan bent her knees and squatted slightly, maintaining her body balance, with the soles of her feet pressed against the wall of the cave, making a hissing sound that slowly echoed in the passage.
As his body was sliding down, Xiao Ling's eyes swept across the cave walls on both sides of him. After a while, he was somewhat surprised to find that this passage was extremely smooth, with basically no stones protruding from the cave walls. This passage looked as if it had been violently impacted by some extremely huge energy column.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "This should be the tunnel that the two-headed fire snake that lives in the underground magma world drilled out. I don't know why it didn't just stay in the magma and live there, but dug a few tunnels here. But it makes it easier for me to find traces of the strange fire."
After the downward speed continued for nearly two or three minutes, Xiao Ling could already see the bottom of the passage. He bent his feet slightly, and after a moment, with a slight muffled sound, his body fell to the ground in a bow shape. As his body bent and stretched, he completely dissipated the rebound force of the fall.
After landing on the ground, Xiao Ling let go of Qing Lin in his arms, pulled her forward a few steps, and swept his eyes across the road ahead, and indeed, he found that there were more than a dozen dark passages.
Zi Yan, who was following behind Xiao Ling and the others, also walked up to them, looked at the dozen or so passages, gazed at Xiao Ling, and asked curiously, "Which of these dozen or so holes can lead to the underground?"
Hearing this, Xiao Ling released his soul perception from his brows to investigate the specific conditions of the passage. After a while, Xiao Ling's attention was focused on a passage on the right.
According to Xiao Ling's perception, an extremely hot breath emanated from it. If not unexpectedly, the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire was in that direction.
Pointing at that passage, Xiao Ling said with a smile: "It should be that passage. If we walk down along that passage, it won't take long to reach our destination."
After he finished speaking, Xiao Ling took Qinglin's hand and walked to the front of the passage.
He waved his hand to release a layer of fighting spirit barrier, dispersing all the scorching air currents that were blowing towards him.
Xiao Ling turned around and asked Zi Yan, "The fire energy here is very active. Is it okay for you?"
Zi Yan nodded and replied, "It's a little hot, but it's not a big problem."
After saying that, he took out a moonstone for lighting, passed by Xiao Ling, and walked into the dark passage first.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling also took Qinglin's hand and quickened his pace to catch up.
……
Xiao Ling and the other two, with the help of the light of the moonstone, walked slowly in the dark passage. Since they had no idea what the danger was, the three of them remained silent in unison. Along the way, there was almost silence except for the slight rustling sound of their footsteps.
In the dark and deep passage, there seemed to be no concept of time. Everyone just kept moving forward in a somewhat rigid manner. The passage seemed to have no end, and no light at the end could be seen. This scene... was like constantly walking towards the center of the earth...
As the distance got closer, Xiao Ling suddenly realized that the fire attribute surrounding his body suddenly increased, and the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame in his body also became uncontrollably active.
Zi Yan also felt the change in the fire energy. She slowly paused and turned her head slightly to look at Xiao Ling and Qing Lin. She asked curiously, "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, are we almost there?"
Nodding to Zi Yan, Xiao Ling smiled and said, "It looks like we're about to reach our destination."
On the following journey, as the three of them went deeper, the fire attribute aura around them became more and more intense. However, Xiao Ling and Zi Yan had their own fighting spirit to protect them, and Qing Lin had Xiao Ling's protection, so the three of them were not greatly affected.
As he went deeper, the fire energy in Xiao Ling's body became more and more active, because he could feel that the burning route in his body was automatically driving the fighting spirit without his driving, and began to run rapidly. This was something that had only happened when he absorbed the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame since he started practicing. This also proved that the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire was not far away from Xiao Ling.
After turning another corner, a red light appeared at the end of the passage not far away, which brightened the originally dark passage a little.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 90 Subduing the Fire Snake
On the last stretch, the three of them sped up even faster, quickly passing through this short distance, and then arrived at the end of the passage...
Standing at the end of the passage, Xiao Ling looked at the fiery red world that appeared before his eyes, and murmured in his heart: "Blue Lotus Earth Heart Fire, here I come!"
Qinglin and Ziyan, who were behind Xiao Ling, also looked forward in the direction Xiao Ling was looking. They all took a deep breath and were deeply shocked by what they saw.
In the huge cave, red magma was flowing slowly, and occasionally huge bubbles emerged from the magma. But after a moment, with a slight sound, it exploded with a bang, and the hot magma burst out from it, as gorgeous as a red firework.
Standing at the end of the small passage, Xiao Ling and the other two looked at the endless magma world in front of them. They were shocked and couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
"I didn't expect... that there was such a horrible place hidden underground outside Shimo City." Zi Yan said in amazement as her body was wrapped in a layer of deep purple light.
"Yes, Sister Zi Yan, what a spectacular underground magma world..." Qing Lin, who was standing behind Xiao Ling, echoed.
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "This is the birthplace of the strange fire. It's close to the center of the earth, so of course it's terrifying."
"What do you want to do now? Do you plan to drill directly into the magma so that you can find the strange fire?" Zi Yan asked, tilting her head as she looked at the rolling magma world in front of her.
Xiao Ling chuckled and said in a relaxed tone: "It may be difficult for me to find it by myself, but it would be much easier if there were an indigenous person living here to help us."
Xiao Ling touched Qinglin's little head and said with a smile: "Qinglin, that guy should be living under the magma. Try to sense its location."
Qinglin nodded, closed his eyes, and began to sense the situation in the magma. After a while, he opened his emerald green eyes.
"There seems to be something inside the magma. I can feel a little bit of its obscure breath... It's very strong..." Qinglin stared at a certain part of the constantly rolling magma. A little bit of faint light appeared in his green eyes, as if he had penetrated the barrier of the magma and saw the mysterious thing hidden underneath.
"There are living creatures? Is this the native you mentioned?" Zi Yan was shocked. In this molten lava that was so hot that it could almost melt steel, there were actually living creatures? This really made Zi Yan a little unbelievable.
Nodding, Xiao Ling replied: "It should still be in the deepest part of the magma. Once you get closer, you will be able to sense its aura. Because it is a snake-like monster, Qing Lin can easily sense it with his Green Snake Three-Flower Pupil."
After saying that, Xiao Ling launched several attacks towards the surface of the magma to attract the attention of the two-headed fire snake.
Xiao Ling stared at the tumbling magma pool, turned around, gave the two women some instructions, and then jumped down into the magma under the mountain wall. The golden fighting wings behind him flapped slightly, and his body gradually floated in a position more than ten meters away from the magma.
Seeing Xiao Ling flying into the air, Zi Yan and Qing Lin retreated into the passage, their eyes fixed on Xiao Ling's body flying above the magma.
Xiao Ling was flying slowly above the magma, with the golden fighting spirit completely covering the surface of his body, and his soul perception also penetrated through his body. After a while, in Xiao Ling's perception, the breath of a fourth-level magic beast gradually approached Xiao Ling's direction quickly.
Amidst the flying lava, a huge mysterious creature suddenly rushed out from the magma and bit Xiao Ling who was floating in the air like lightning.
This mysterious creature that suddenly ran out from the magma is a snake-like monster with an extremely long body. At a rough glance, it is probably at least four or five meters long. Its entire body is fiery red. From a distance, it looks like a round piece of fire jade. On the surface of its body, palm-sized red scales are densely covered.
This monster actually has two heads. At the fork of its slender neck, there are two ferocious heads, staring with huge diamond-shaped pupils, which are filled with violent and bloodthirsty murderous intent.
The mysterious creature broke through the magma with a sharp hiss, and rushed towards Xiao Ling in mid-air. The randomly flying magma also stirred up the calm magma lake, making it suddenly violent. Pillars of magma fire shot up into the sky from it, which was extremely spectacular.
Qinglin and Ziyan on the shore also noticed the attack of the mysterious creature. Although they knew that Xiao Ling was extremely powerful and much stronger than this mysterious creature, they still broke into a cold sweat for Xiao Ling.
The fighting wings behind him shook slightly, and Xiao Ling easily avoided the attack from the magma.
The speed of that mysterious creature was also very fast. The moment the hissing sound just stopped, its huge body displayed a fast speed that was completely inconsistent with its size. It gradually caught up with Xiao Ling. Then, it opened its ferocious giant mouth, and its scarlet three-pronged tongue stabbed out like a sharp sword.
Seeing this two-headed fire snake coming to him, Xiao Ling showed a satisfied smile and said with emotion: "I thought you would hide down there, but I didn't expect you to come up directly. It saved me a lot of trouble."
A white light flashed in his right hand, and the Meteorite Divine Weapon fell into Xiao Ling's hand. Slightly flapping his fighting spirit wings, Xiao Ling faced the attack of the two-headed fire spirit snake.
As the distance between the two continued to close, flames spewed out of the two mouths of the two-headed fire snake and attacked Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling slightly turned his body to the side and easily dodged the attack. When the two were about to get close, he directly shot it in the neck.
The two-headed fire snake was torn apart by the shot. It raised its head and let out a scream, then fell straight into the lava. It swung its tail and tried to escape into the lava.
"Since you're here, don't leave." Xiao Ling growled, and stretched out his white right palm. He concentrated his soul perception on the two-headed fire spirit snake and activated the low-level Xuan-level fighting skill, Suction Palm, to pull the two-headed fire spirit snake out of the magma.
After Xiao Ling's tossing and turning, the two-headed fire snake lost its ability to move, its eyelids drooped, and it seemed that it was about to faint.
Xiao Ling used his soul power to lift the two-headed fire snake into the air. With a slight shake of the fighting spirit wings behind him, he flew back to Zi Yan and Qing Lin.
When Zi Yan and Qing Lin saw Xiao Ling coming back, they all moved towards Xiao Ling.
Perhaps it was because of his Green Snake Tricolor Pupil, Qing Lin felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the miserable appearance of the two-headed fire spirit snake, but when he looked at Xiao Ling, those complicated emotions disappeared. "He actually dared to attack the young master, this guy deserves to be beaten."
Zi Yan stared at the two-headed fire snake and asked in a somewhat curious tone: "Xiao Ling, are you planning to let Qing Lin subdue it, and then let this little snake lead you to find the strange fire in the underground magma world?"
Xiao Ling nodded slightly, touched Qinglin's little head, and asked: "Qinglin, with your current ability, can you control this guy?"
