The Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python!
"Certainly."
The Exiled Sword Immortal summoned an Azure Cauldron, Law Treasure that stabilized Spacetime to prevent the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame from escaping.
Firstly, if the disturbance at the Primordial Ancient Mine was caused by Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, it needs to be taken out to give the ancestors an explanation.
Secondly, the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame is Twentieth-Grade Spirit Fire, which is quite rare. If it can be subdued, it will be a significant boost to the Taichu Sacred Land.
Finally, if the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame is left in this Mine Shaft, the Elders and disciples of the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands may lose their lives if they encounter it while mining in the future.
Seeing that the Exiled Sword Immortal wanted to collect the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, Lu Changsheng had no intention of competing with the Exiled Sword Immortal, but instead frowned.
Although the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame is Twentieth-Grade Spirit Fire, posing a threat even to Great Expert, it may not be able to cause the vast and boundless Primordial Ancient Mine to shake, or even cause a strong physical sensation in the Taichu Mountain.
Could it be...?
The amethyst tree formed by the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame flames blazed brightly, and a terrifying heat wave swept over them. Disciples such as Lin Qingzhi, Lu Qinglian, Mo Huazhi quickly channeled their internal energy to protect themselves.
"Now that I've encountered you, don't even think about struggling."
The Exiled Sword Immortal was, after all, a genius disciple of the Taichu Sacred Land, and had cultivated in the Primordial Ancient Mine for a long time, becoming a master of the Great Perfection God King Realm. He was valued by the Taichu Sacred Land and possessed many Dao Artifacts.
Seeing that the Azure Exiled Sword Immortal could not suppress the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, the Azure Cauldron immortal summoned an Azure Treasure Bottle, pulled out the wooden stopper, and generated an astonishing suction force to forcibly subdue the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame.
The amethyst tree radiated purple light, still resisting the Exiled Sword Immortal's magical Law Treasure.
Only the outermost Violet Flames transformed into thin purple threads, which were absorbed into the Treasure Bottle as if being peeled back from a cocoon.
"Brother Lu, please lend me a hand. I will be rewarded afterwards."
Seeing that he could not subdue the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame on his own, the Exiled Sword Immortal asked Lu Changsheng for help.
Lu Changsheng did not answer. He formed Sword Art with his right hand, and an ancient sword with a cold light emanated from his body. The pressure caused the entire Mine Shaft to tremble violently.
Then, one after another, identical ancient swords were unleashed, their imposing aura causing cracks to appear in the incredibly hard stone wall at the bottom.
There are a total of forty-nine ancient swords.
"Brother Lu, why make such a fuss?"
The Exiled Sword Immortal never expected that Lu Changsheng would immediately unleash Yellow-Rank Supreme Treasure, the "Forty-Nine Battle Swords."
Even Initial Mighty Expert would have to give this set of Law Treasures a wide berth.
The Exiled Sword Immortal only asked Lu Changsheng for help in subduing the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame; Lu Changsheng's actions were far too exaggerated.
Is it really necessary...?
However, when the Exiled Sword Immortal saw Lu Changsheng's serious expression, he felt that something was amiss.
Under Lu Changsheng's command, the Forty-Nine Battle Swords did not fly towards the Purple Crystal Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, but instead rushed straight towards the lava lake below it.
Why exactly?
The Exiled Sword Immortal was completely confused by Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng's target does not seem to be the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame.
Lu Changsheng did not answer, but focused on manipulating the Forty-Nine Battle Swords to form the Great Evolution Sword Formation, Sword Formation disappeared into the magma.
Beads of sweat the size of soybeans dripped continuously as Lu Changsheng's True Qi rapidly depleted, forcing him to take a top-grade Medicinal Pills to maintain True Qi.
"Watch out, everyone! That thing is coming up!"
Lu Changsheng looked shocked and quickly reminded everyone.
Boom!
The lava lake exploded, sending countless magma flying, shaking the earth and causing parts of the incredibly hard underground rock to collapse. Rocks occasionally fell from above, crashing into the lava lake and splashing up more scorching lava, filling the air with heat.
Lin Qingzhi, Lu Qinglian, Mo Huazhi, Chen Yi, Xu Jing, Yun Qianyue, Dugu Aotian, the Exiled Sword Immortal Dugu Aotian, and others summoned their Law Treasures to protect themselves, watching in shock as the magma lake underwent a dramatic change.
One after another, the Forty-Nine Battle Swords Yellow-Rank Supreme Treasure swords emerged from the bottom of the lava lake and returned to Lu Changsheng's side. The forty-nine ancient swords stood upright, surrounding Lu Changsheng, with Primordial Chaos Sword Qi overflowing and elements of heaven and earth such as wind, thunder, Earth Fire circulating continuously.
Unlike before, the blade of the Forty-Nine Battle Swords now displays a metallic sheen as if it has been heated to a reddish hue.
Clearly, the temperature of the magma at the bottom of the Primordial Ancient Mine was beyond comprehension; even the Yellow-Rank Supreme Treasure, the Forty-Nine Battle Swords, could not withstand the high temperature.
But what made Lu Changsheng's expression serious was not the high temperature.
"Hiss..."
A chilling hissing sound echoed through the Mine Shaft, making everyone feel as if they were being stared at by a Primordial Era Behemoths, their scalps tingling with fear.
A huge triangular head emerged from the lava lake, lava dripping continuously. Its crimson scales seemed to blend into the lava, but its eyes glowed with a green fluorescence, eerie and chilling.
"Swallowing... Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python..."
The Exiled Sword Immortal hailed from Taichu Mountain, one of the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands. He was well-versed in the ancient texts of Taichu Mountain and possessed extensive knowledge, thus recognizing the origin of this Demon Beast.
He finally understood why Lu Changsheng, whose combat power was comparable to that of Initial Mighty Expert, had such a serious expression, and why he had immediately unleashed Law Treasure like the Forty-Nine Battle Swords.
The Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python is a terrifying Demon Beast that exists only in Remote Antiquity records and is one of the Primordial Era Behemoths.
As its name suggests, the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python feeds on magma and flames, and especially loves various Spirit Fires in the world. The more Spirit Fires it devours and the higher their grade, the stronger the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python becomes.
Legend has it that in Remote Antiquity times, a terrifying Heavenly Fire spewed out by a Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python destroyed a Tribe overseen by Great Expert Human Race, and even the Great Expert Human Race could not escape its wrath.
"I understand! No wonder the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame suddenly appeared in this Mine Shaft. It was probably discovered by this Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, it fled here, and the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python chased it here. So, the source of the commotion in the Primordial Ancient Mine wasn't the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame, but this Flame -Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python?"
The Exiled Sword Immortal realized that his previous deductions might be wrong.
His latest deduction startled him.
If this Flame -Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python can cause the Primordial Ancient Mine to shake, its Dao cultivation is probably...
"Use the sound transmission talisman quickly."
Lu Changsheng reminded the Exiled Sword Immortal.
The Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python's icy gaze had already locked onto them.
This Flame -Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python is probably Changsheng Never Dies; even the Purple Crystal Illusion Flame Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python fled here to avoid it.
"Good..."
The Exiled Sword Immortal quickly channeled his True Qi into the Talisman, and as the Runes on the Talisman flickered, the news spread far and wide.
Their task was to avoid being killed by this ancient Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python that had been lurking in the Primordial Ancient Mine for an unknown period of time, before the other teams arrived...
"Senior Brother Xi, the Exiled Sword Immortal has requested help! They have discovered the source of the anomaly in the Primordial Ancient Mine —it's actually a Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python!"
One of the disciples from the Taiyi Holy Land team noticed the Exiled Sword Immortal's distress message and alerted the rest of the group.
"It's actually the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python!"
"The Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python is Primordial Era Behemoths, feeding on various Spirit Fires; it is extremely terrifying. The Exiled Sword Immortal and Lu Changsheng are in the same group, yet they actually asked for help. Just how powerful is this Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python?"
"Our Taiyi Holy Land and the Taichu Sacred Land are both among the Five Great Innate Sacred Lands. If they are in trouble, we should go to their aid."
The Elders and disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land chattered amongst themselves.
Even if they are no match for the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python, as long as they rescue the Exiled Sword Immortal and Lu Changsheng, they can ask the Second Ancestor and Third Ancestor of Taichu Mountain to deal with the Flame-Swallowing Ancient Python.
"Other teams will receive the message and go to rescue them; we'll continue our reconnaissance."
The square-faced man in the Daoist Sun God Bird Daoist Robe, known as Senior Brother Xi, with a serious expression, led the Taiyi Holy Land team to continue exploring deeper into another Mine Shaft where they were located.
The members of the Taiyi Holy Land team looked at each other, puzzled. However, since Senior Brother Xi was the number one genius in their Taiyi Holy Land for nearly ten million years and had cultivated to the Immortality Realm in the Primordial Ancient Mine, they had no choice but to believe his judgment.
