Activating the Purple Cloud Wing, Su Yun's figure soared over the Lava, quickly reaching the side of the Giant Snake.
The Fiery Red Long Sword, carrying immense force, swung towards the snake's head!
At this moment, the Lava exploded once again, and another snake head emerged, charging towards Su Yun.
Sensing the danger from below, Su Yun immediately turned, sheathing the long sword on his back, his left hand's veins bulging.
Eightfold Collapse!
His fist collided with the attacking snake head, producing a muffled sound. Su Yun's body was pushed back a meter by the counterforce.
The massive snake head didn't fare much better, falling towards the Lava.
Suppressing the numbness in his left hand, Su Yun clenched his fist, his Martial Qi surging within.
He whispered, "Explosion!"
A muffled sound echoed from the snake head still falling through the air.
The other snake head's human-like eyes flashed with a mix of pain and hatred.
That human's punch earlier wasn't much, but the strange attack that followed had directly exploded its other head from the inside.
Feeling the burning and piercing cold from its remaining head, the snake's eyes burned with even deeper hatred!
Su Yun's eyes were fixed on the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake, a glint of excitement in them.
This Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake had lived in the Lava for a long time and knew the exact location of the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire.
Even without Qing Lin's Green Snake Three Flower Pupil, he had the System.
As long as he knocked out the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake and used the System's recovery function to extract its memories...
At this thought, Su Yun's excitement grew even more.
Su Yun sheathed the Fiery Red Long Sword in his right hand.
He had yet to learn any Earth Rank combat techniques.
He had caught it off guard with the Eightfold Collapse, destroying one of its heads, but it wouldn't be that easy again.
A fourth-stage magical beast was quite intelligent and would certainly be more cautious, not allowing him to get close easily.
It would be difficult to decide the outcome in a short time with his current strength alone.
Martial Qi surged within him, and he summoned the Bonespirit Cold Fire from the System space along with the three Beast Fires within his body. Su Yun clasped his hands together.
The flames on his hands underwent a strange transformation, the four fires merging peculiarly to form a Four-Color Fire Lotus in Su Yun's hands.
Seeing Su Yun's actions, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake felt a sense of unease.
However, Su Yun's punch that had destroyed one of its heads made it wary, hesitant to approach recklessly.
But as the energy fluctuations from Su Yun's hands grew stronger, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's human-like eyes flashed with fear.
It couldn't just sit and wait to die!
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's eyes flashed with a ruthless glint, its body stirring beneath the Lava, causing it to churn chaotically.
A column of Lava suddenly erupted, rushing towards Su Yun!
His outstanding soul perception detected the danger, a cold glint in his eyes.
Part of the Martial Qi flowing to his hands was diverted to his back, and the Purple Cloud Wing flashed with purple light, leaving a shadow as it darted over the Lava, narrowly avoiding the Lava column's attack at the last moment.
The Martial Qi fluctuations in his hands remained steady, undisturbed.
Most of Su Yun's Soul Power and Martial Qi were focused on the fire lotus.
The subfire he extracted from the Bonespirit Cold Fire this time was different from before.
This Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake had great potential, not as agile as the Ice Snake in the Beast Mountain Range, but its body was quite strong. The previous amount of fire wouldn't be enough to kill it.
The Buddha's Wrath Fire Lotus was incredibly powerful, but it also consumed a lot of resources.
It not only consumed Martial Qi but also tested his Soul Power.
Without sufficient Soul Power to maintain the balance of the flames, it might explode in his hands before it even formed.
Seeing the fire lotus in his hands take shape, Su Yun let out a sinister laugh.
Your time has come!
Su Yun rapidly flew towards the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake.
As Su Yun approached, the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's eyes finally showed fear, its body beginning to retreat, gradually escaping into the Lava.
Su Yun bared his teeth, this distance was enough!
In that short time, the distance between Su Yun and the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake had closed significantly.
At this distance, he couldn't use the Eightfold Collapse, but the explosion from the fire lotus in his hands would still affect the beast!
Su Yun threw the fire lotus forward, and with a mental command, his figure disappeared, reappearing in the System space.
Without Su Yun's maintenance, the four fires that made up the fire lotus violently erupted.
The lotus base and petals immediately swelled, exploding with a loud bang.
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake, which had not yet retreated into the Lava, stared in horror, but its body was too slow to escape, and it was engulfed by the explosion.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion echoed in the Lava, causing it to erupt violently, splashing onto the soil.
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's body was torn apart, flames ravaging within.
Its remaining head was severely injured again, already unconscious.
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's body gradually sank, and at this moment, Su Yun suddenly appeared in the air above the Lava, flying towards the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake.
He pressed his hands on the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's body, using his Soul Power to carefully sense.
Su Yun sighed in relief, it was still alive, just barely.
Having had the System for years, he still hadn't fully understood all its functions.
He didn't know if the memories of a dead creature could still be extracted.
Old Medicine's soul state was too unique, not a good reference.
Magical beasts had strong bodies but weak souls. A fourth-stage magical beast might have its soul dissipate at the moment of death.
To avoid any delays, Su Yun immediately gave the command to the System.
"System, extract the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's memories!"
"Ding, detected that the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake is in a comatose state, meeting extraction requirements."
"Ding, extraction successful."
Su Yun's right hand condensed Martial Qi, and he delivered a punch to the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's remaining head.
Eightfold Collapse!
"Explosion."
Su Yun's low voice echoed, and a muffled sound came from its head.
It was dead, beyond a doubt.
Su Yun nodded in satisfaction, storing the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake in the System space.
Thinking about it, he had never eaten snake meat before. He could try it sometime.
At this thought, Little Medical Fairy's image flashed in his mind.
His cooking wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. If Fairy were here, she would surely make him a delicious meal.
It wouldn't be long now. Absorb the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire, help Hai Bo Dong refine the Eradicating Calamity Pill, and he could return to see Fairy.
Su Yun pushed these thoughts out of his mind.
Why did he keep thinking about her so often?
Su Yun felt a wave of melancholy. A girl as good as Fairy, he would never have met in his previous life.
With this thought, Su Yun entered the System space.
"System, manifest the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's memories."
At this moment, a screen formed in Su Yun's mind, composed of Soul Power.
The Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's memories were different from Old Medicine's.
In the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's memories, the only useful information was the location of the Blue Lotus Earth Core Fire. He wasn't interested in anything else.
