Chapter 1432: The Magma Snake Empress
Qingfeng Li really didn’t believe the red-haired beauty and was unwilling to join forces with her.
She saw right through his uncertainty and worries, and smiled.
“Qingfeng Li, don’t worry. The Golden Flame you have is extremely powerful and can severly injure me.”
Qingfeng Li thought about it for a moment. She was right – his may only be able to use his flames one more time, but it was still extremely powerful.
If the red-haired beauty really wanted to harm him, Qingfeng Li would be able to seriously injure her, or even kill her with the Golden Flame.
“Fine, let’s go find the magma mystic royal fruit together, but you have to share it with me.” Qingfeng Li nodded his head.
Right now, he was only half-step Spirit Emperor Realm and really needed a breakthrough. He needed the fruit for himself.
Delighted, the red-haired beauty began leading the way.
The duo swam towards the north at a very fast pace.
All the monsters hid away immediately at the sight of the red-haired beauty. It was obvious that she was a legendary master.
Qingfeng Li’s arms and legs spread out like a frog as they continued swimming forward.
“Hey beautiful, you didn’t tell me your name yet.” Qingfeng Li smiled slightly at the beautiful woman beside him.
She replied with a faint smile, “You can call me the Magma Snake Empress.”
“Magma Snake Empress.” Qingfeng Li repeated the name in shock. No wonder she was so powerful, she was cultivated from a thousand-year-old snake.
The Empress looked at Qingfeng Li, “What’s your name? We’re partners now, and now that you know my name, you should tell me yours.”
Smiling, Qingfeng Li replied, “Call me Qingfeng Li.”
The red-haired beauty nodded without saying anything. Although Qingfeng Li was very powerful and famous in the self-cultivating world, no one has heard of him here in the Magma Lake under the cliff of the Dragon-Tiger Mountain.
She had lived here for thousands of years and only knew of the ten great ferocious beats of Magma Lake; she’s never heard of Qingfeng Li.
The duo continued swimming north. Soon, they arrived at the place the Magma Snake Empress was talking about.
Qingfeng Li looked ahead – indeed in the middle region of the lake was a small tree.
It was a flaming red tree, with two fruits growing on it.
Each fruit was like a fist-sized tomato; exuding flame energy, both fruits were marked with a red heavenly Dao talisman scripture.
The Heavenly Dao talisman scriptures were that of Magma Lake. In addition to the gold, wood, water, fire and earth elemental Heavenly Dao talisman scriptures in the self-cultivating world, there were also thunder, mountain, river, lava, and ice.
Each scripture was incredibly powerful, as they absorbed the energy of the heavens and earth.
Qingfeng Li had a feeling that if he ate the magma mystic royal fruit, his level may be able to reach level 2 Spirit Emperor Realm.
However, his expression changed before he could act as he saw a group of ferocious beasts gathered around the fruit tree.
Each beast was incredibly powerful – there was a magma lion, leopard… even a magma elephant.
Qingfeng Li finally came to the realization that the Magma River was like another world, and the beasts that existed in here were the same as that of outside. However, these beasts lived in the Magma River, and drank lava to stay alive.
“Qingfeng Li, these beasts are at least level 4 Spirit Emperor Realm, the most powerful one is Level 7. That’s why I asked you to come with me,” the Magma Snake Empress said to him.
Qingfeng Li could also feel these beasts exuding powerful energy, and each one seemed to be stronger than he was. These were all ultimate masters, and Qingfeng Li had to deal with each one carefully.
Qingfeng Li took one look at the Magma Snake Empress, and asked, “Who is the strongest of all these magma beasts?”
The Empress replied, “That lion is the strongest, he’s level 7 Spirit Emperor Realm, while the others are just level 5 or level 6.
Qingfeng Li suddenly understood why she asked him to come, and muttered, “You asked me to come so that I could use my Golden Flame against the lion, didn’t you?”
The Magma Snake Empress smiled in compliment, “Qingfeng Li, you’re a smart man. You’re right, I am no match for that lion, and that’s why I asked you to come with me. Once you kill the magma lion with your Golden Flame, I’d be able to defeat the others. Once we get the magma mystic royal fruit, we can each take one for ourselves.
Qingfeng Li nodded in agreement.
“Who’s hiding out there?” Hearing voices, the magma lion opened its mouth.
Qingfeng Li was stunned – the lion had incredible hearing and could hear them although they were far away from them.
“The magma lion found us out, let’s head over there,” the Empress said to Qingfeng Li.
The Magma Snake Empress was already quite arrogant, and now that she had Qingfeng Li’s help, she was not afraid of the lion at all.
When the lion saw that Magma Snake Empress brought a human self-cultivator with her, a handsome man at that, the lion’s eyes lit with fury and jealousy.
“Snake Empress, why did you bring a man here?” The lion asked the Magma Snake Empress.
Qingfeng Li and the surrounding beasts could all tell that the Magma Lion was furious.
Confused, Qingfeng Li took one look at the lion, then back at the snake empress, and braced himself for gossip.
The Magma Snake Empress smiled faintly and said, “Qingfeng Li, there’s no gossip here. I can tell you up front that this lion used to pursue me, and I rejected him. He’s been wanting to get back at me for a while now.
Qingfeng Li rolled his eyes at her words, he thought that only the those from the human self-cultivating world pursued for love.
He was surprised to find that these beasts did the same thing, and that hate could stem from love as well.
