Chapter 222: The Hunter's Blue Light Arrow!
"Little snake, little snake, don't blame me, you can't use this magic core anyway," Xiao Yan said, under the watchful eyes of the colorful small snake, as he began to remove a red magic core, glowing with a faint purple light, from the charred body of the giant serpent. The colorful small snake silently watched from the side, its eyes cold and seemingly containing a proud soul, glaring at Xiao Yan's actions of extracting the magic core.
"This Seven-Colored Devouring Sky Python is the soul manifestation of Queen Medusa, so the magic core in its remains is still intact. Though this act might anger the Serpent Clan, at this point, being a little more enraged doesn't matter anymore," the old pharmacist, who had been observing the small snake, chuckled darkly. "This Seven-Colored Devouring Sky Python's soul might have been damaged by the recent lightning. Its main consciousness seems to be in a semi-sleep state, and it may take some time to fully recover."
"Can we take it with us?" Xiao Yan suddenly asked.
"That's up to you. With both opportunity and danger, if you're set on seeking fortune through risk, I won't stop you," the old pharmacist responded, leaving the decision to Xiao Yan. After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Yan's eyes hardened, and he decided to take the Seven-Colored Devouring Sky Python with him.
"Alright, quickly collect the Earth Fire. If it were anything else, capturing the Qinglian Earth Fire would be quite troublesome, but fortunately, we have a Qinglian base, which is the perfect container for the Earth Fire." Xiao Yan, upon hearing this, took out a green, glowing lotus base from his storage ring. The lotus base gently moved toward the Qinglian Earth Fire on the island, and without Xiao Yan having to do anything extra, the strange cyan flames in the air automatically returned to the base, their power no longer leaking.
"Get ready to flee. The barrier will break soon. You can't store the Earth Fire in the storage ring; it will burn everything inside to nothing."
Crack!
Just as the old pharmacist's voice finished, the purple light curtain outside cracked like a mirror, with numerous fissures appearing. Then, with a crack, it shattered into a sky full of light and fire!
"Run!"
Meanwhile, the group led by Gu He and the Serpent Clan's Dou Kings gathered towards the direction of the purple light curtain. Under the cover of others, Gu He was the first to enter the island in the center of the lake, attempting to locate the Earth Fire. However, he found no trace of it, and with his expression slightly uncontrollable, he was about to speak when he looked up and saw a figure holding a bundle of cyan flames in the air, spreading four-winged feathered wings, flying rapidly!
"Stop that person! The Earth Fire is on him!" At once, both the Serpent Clan's Dou Kings and Gu He's group rushed towards Xiao Yan!
The Serpent Clan Dou Kings sought to kill the humans, attacking any human they could find! Meanwhile, Gu He and his group were after the Qinglian Earth Fire that Xiao Yan carried!
"You go after the Earth Fire first, I'll stop these Serpent Clan Dou Kings," the Qing-winged black-robed figure from Gu He's side extended a slender jade hand. A strong gust of wind rose, and she single-handedly stopped several Serpent Clan Dou Kings.
"Okay!" Seeing this, Gu He didn't say much. He quickly led Feng Li and Yan Shi, the two other Dou Kings, flying quickly towards Xiao Yan.
"Stop! Friend! Hand over the Earth Fire, and I will give you the compensation you want!" With the aid of his Four-Leaf Feathered Wings, Gu He's flying speed far exceeded the other two Dou Kings. His distance from Xiao Yan was rapidly shrinking! But because of this, Gu He's eyes grew more complex as he looked at the four-leaf wings on Xiao Yan's back, thinking, 'Who exactly is this person?! How could he get his hands on Four-Leaf Feathered Wings?!'
It is worth noting that Gu He had paid a huge price to obtain his own Four-Leaf Feathered Wings!
"Master! What should we do?! That person also has Four-Leaf Feathered Wings! And he's a Dou King! We can't shake him off!" Xiao Yan, flying with his red wings, turned to look at the approaching four-winged figure in black and felt his heart tense. Normally, it was him using the Four-Leaf Feathered Wings to bully others, but now, he was the one being chased. Xiao Yan just wanted to shout, "Damn it, why doesn't the Four-Leaf Feathered Wings have a limit?!"
"This is a bit troublesome," the old pharmacist sighed in Xiao Yan's mind. Xiao Yan's current speed was already on par with a Dou Huang, thanks to the old pharmacist's help. However, Gu He, with his Four-Leaf Feathered Wings, had caught up!
"Create some distance, try to damage his wings. Otherwise, if we keep getting entangled, the Dou Huang behind us will catch up, and we'll have to protect ourselves," the old pharmacist continued. With the Bone Spirit Cold Fire on him, Xiao Yan's flight speed might be at the Dou Huang level, but survival under a Dou Huang was still possible.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, just as Gu He was about to catch up and attack Xiao Yan, and the old pharmacist was preparing to use his soul power to directly shatter the wings behind Gu He, a blue light arrow shot out from the depths of the desert. The arrow, like a flash of light from another dimension, weaved through the air, bypassing everyone's perception, and with a whoosh, it struck Gu He's fiery red feathered wings, which were wrapped in Dou Qi armor!
The sudden change surprised everyone, especially Gu He, who was terrified to discover that the blue light had merged with his Fire Dou Qi as it struck his wings. His Dou Qi on the wings of the feathered armor immediately became chaotic, and it was as if someone had thrown sand into the engine of a high-speed machine. Gu He suddenly realized that although his wings were undamaged, they had lost control and slowed drastically, causing him to helplessly watch as Xiao Yan increased the distance between them!
"Sure enough, Dou Qi light flow is much faster than arrows. That old ghost was too confident, thinking he could shatter the Dou Qi-wrapped Fourth-Stage Dou Artifact with soul power, but that was a bit too arrogant."
On a sand dune thousands of meters away, Jiang Lin, covered in blue flames, slowly put away his blue-glowing black feather heavy bow. His four blue light wings spread out as he flew towards the direction Xiao Yan was fleeing, all while Gu He's furious and fearful gaze followed him.
Another Four-Leaf Feathered Wing!
"Huh? What's going on with you guys?" Not long after Jiang Lin left, the Qing-winged black-robed figure caught up with Gu He's group, who had temporarily abandoned their Four-Leaf Feathered Wings and were now flying with their Dou Qi wings.
