Lady Lin’s First-ever Journey to Immortality-Chapter 533 - I am the Guider of Thunder and Fire
Chapter 533 I am the Guider of Thunder and Fire
A powerful force hits the top of the mausoleum, and the solid dome of the mausoleum has some small cracks. The underground palace may be destroyed soon, and the river can then flood it in an instant.
The double-headed snake snorts coldly, swaying its long tail. It swims out first. Before leaving, it doesn’t forget to use its tail to roll up Mu Tiannan who has no power to resist.
Bai Zhi stomps her feet. She follows the double-headed snake out.
Lin Luoran and White Fairy look at each other. They can’t figure out what tricks their enemies are playing. However, it is true that mausoleum is attacked by someone. They have to leave as soon as possible.
In a hurry, Lin Luoran puts the entire crystal coffin into the space. The body of White Fairy lies in it, and she can’t leave it in the mausoleum with stones. White Fairy nods at her with gratitude in her eyes.
When Lin Luoran and White Fairy get out of the mausoleum and break through the water, someone keeps staring at her, seeming to confirm that she is safe. The terrifying pressure instantly diminishes.
The double-headed snake throws Mu Tiannan on a rocky beach of the river. It has restored its original appearance. Its thick and long snake body entangles together like a small hill.
The enemy of the double-headed snake is a turtle of the same size. It is also an old acquaintance of Lin Luoran. During the first time she came to secret land in Bermuda, she was surprised by it in the sea. The second time she entered secret land was also because of it!
The earth element around is full and boundless. It must not be a turtle, but a different species of the Earth. The big tortoise doesn’t want to harm her, and the look in its eyes makes Lin Luoran feel inexplicably familiar. In such a confrontation, she stands behind the big tortoise with White Fairy without hesitation.
For her choice, the tortoise’s eyes are filled with appreciation, and its facial expression softens.
The double-headed snake’s tail beats the ground in a strange rhythm.
“You are here.”
The big tortoise ignores it, and the double-headed snake keeps saying, “It is said that gathering twelve jade plates can get us prisoners out of prison. Without the permission of you, the jailer, that’s impossible… Lost Land appears once a hundred years. In this month, the strength of monsters is reduced to the lowest level. You don’t make an easy life as well, right? A few years ago, you relied on your ability that you could enter and exit Lost Land freely to hide outside as early as possible. The monsters who wanted to make trouble had no way.
However, as soon as I saw that sacred pearl, I knew that you would not evade this time. Black Tortoise, am I right? You lackey of the human race, traitor of the monster race!”
This big tortoise is Black Tortoise, and it entered the secret land because of Lin Luoran?
Lin Luoran feels a little weird, maybe because of the sacred pearl on her wrist. As the person who wears it, she attracts crisis like the fake saintess and calculation like the snake monster due to the sacred pearl. However, she also gets lucky and attracts Black Tortoise to help her because of it.
It must because of Momo, the former owner of sacred pearl.
Except for meeting as spiritual mind and peeping in dreams, Lin Luoran has never really seen Momo. However, on her way of personal ability enhancement, Momo’s shadow is everywhere. She feels complex about it. She is an independent individual and she does not want to live in the shadow of Momo forever. Even though Momo is a beautiful and cheerful little girl, she is not her after all.
The double-headed snake seems to read Lin Luoran’s mind. Its two heads are twisted alternately, and its words are bewildering, “Female Qi-trainer, don’t think this damn turtle is here to save you specifically. It is here to save that sacred pearl. Yeah, you don’t know it. It flattered that human race girl back then much more a hundred times than what it did to you, hahaha…”
Lin Luoran frowns.
Sure enough, it’s because of Momo. Just like the man in robe who always helps her, is it also because of Momo? She suddenly feels that her life has fallen into a certain kind of vain. The little girl named “Momo” seemed to have arranged her life many years ago. Then, who knows if Momo is controlling her every word and deed now?
“Don’t listen to it. For all spiritual treasures in the world, even if they are as precious as this sacred pearl, they are still dead. I come to help you only because of you. Little girl, you worth it.”
Black Tortoise speaks for the first time, just as mellow and gentle as Lin Luoran imagined. It comforts Lin Luoran’s self-denying and restless state of mind.
White Fairy doesn’t know the cause of the incident, and she nods when she hears the words, “You are indeed a rare fool in the world of cultivation. However, if I could choose, I would prefer a fool like you to be my sister.”
People who are too smart are either great good or great evil. Lin Luoran’s personality makes her to be regarded as a “fool” easily. Such personality is not as indifferent as her appearance. It is fire under the ice. Once the fire breaks out, it is always full of uncertain factors.
Therefore, Lin Luoran will easily be instigated and then do things that are inconsistent with her personal ability state of mind if others use what she cares about as a weapon. But compared to Bai Zhi, White Fairy feels that dealing with people like Lin Luoran is the most reassuring.
Bai Zhi can definitely understand what White Fairy means. She just ignores her and stands quietly behind the snake monster. No one knows what she is thinking.
Black Tortoise says again, “Actually, you don’t need me to help you. You may be able to defeat this snake monster by yourself.”
The brave is invincible, and now big monsters are at a time when they are weakest in secret land. Lin Luoran is just confined by the preconceived impression. She always feels that she can’t defeat a primitive monster. She is timid and doesn’t even try.
Such timidity is buried deep in her soul unknowingly. If Black Tortoise doesn’t mention it, it will cause serious harm in her advancement.
Hearing Black Tortoise’s affirmation, Lin Luoran suddenly feels confident in her heart.
“What should I do?”
Before she knows it, she has regarded Black Tortoise as a trustworthy elder, and she discusses with it naturally. She forgets the power of the snake monster, as if this is just a usual teaching scene and what she is asking about is just a certain sword skill that has not been practiced for a long time.
Black Tortoise smiles, “You actually have the answer in your mind, don’t you?”
Lin Luoran is startled. Black Tortoise knows her so well.
She has the ability to deal with the snake monster? Lin Luoran’s first thought is “golden word figure”.
Except for the golden word figure that changes the colors of the world, she can’t think of anything else that can be the nemesis of this primitive monster.
Lin Luoran has closed her eyes. Her total contempt irritates the snake monster. Black Tortoise waits for the snake head to approach and then opens its mouth to exhale mysterious yellow gas. It forces the snake to dodge embarrassingly.
The snake monster is shocked this time. Even though Black Tortoise is weakened in this month as them, its strength is still higher than that of the monsters! How can it be possible? It remembers that Black Tortoise was not so talented at that time, and its bloodline is not pure… Is it just because it followed the fuzzy man in linen robe?
The snake monster is so angry that it grits its teeth. It looks terrifying. The facts are obvious. Since the Black Tortoise can beat it, it still talks so much nonsense. It is obvious that Black Tortoise is also buying time, just like it did before.
The snake monster was buying time to lure Black Tortoise out. It thought that it would have to care about others so it can’t attack freely.
Black Tortoise is delaying time at this moment. There is only one purpose—it is waiting for this human female Qi-trainer to grow up. The snake monster must be regarded as the touchstone of the trial!
The snake monster is sensitive to feel a sense of killing in the surrounding. It twists its body uncomfortably to escape. Lin Luoran has moved with her eyes closed.
She raises her white wrists and her eyes look confident and happy. When the wind blows Lin Luoran’s long hair, the snake monster sees another person’s shadow in her for a moment.
It is the only existence that it has been afraid of after living for countless years.
Such an illusion makes the snake monster forget to escape temporarily.
White Fairy also takes action. She moves towards Bai Zhi, and Bai Zhi avoids her instinctively. White Fairy smiles. She gets Mu Tiannan who was thrown like rag and neglected for a long time in the benchland, and then goes back behind Black Tortoise.
The undisguised mockery in White Fairy’s eyes suffocates Bai Zhi. She and Bai Zhi have to spend a lot of time “discussing” their history. At this moment, it’s the priority to make sure that Lin Luoran can focus on her fight. Since Mu Tiannan is Lin Luoran’s old friend, White Fairy can’t let him stay there. If the battle goes fierce and Lin Luoran is threatened because of him by the snake monster again… Mu Tiannan must stay on their side.
“I need fire.” Lin Luoran murmurs. While saying her own needs, her fingers seem to be playing some kind of music in the air, drawing lines with a beautiful frequency of freehand brushwork.
Those lines are the language that communicates with laws of the world.
The little female cultivator masters this language and she is able to communicate with the law of supremacy. She says that there must be fire, and the law of heaven meets her demands.
The fire comes out of thin air, forming a hood with no exit which traps the snake monster in it. The snake monster receives a big gift from the Qi-trainer it looked down upon. Flames scorch its primordial spirit and it is panting. The snake monster has to shrink its huge body like a hill.
When it shrinks to the size of an ordinary python and tries to break through flames, people can still hear the crackling sound of the snake scales being grilled. Strong snake scales protect the snake monster’s body, but they also put the flesh and blood in an iron-skin stove. The heat is generated inside the snake monster, and it feels that its cold blood is astonishingly hot.
Bai Zhi is also surrounded by a smaller flame.
Unlike the torture to the snake monster, Lin Luoran only commands the flame to trap her. It seems that she wants to leave the disposal power to White Fairy.
This prominent flame is so strange. It targeted at the snake monster and Bai Zhi. The green grass in the flame is fresh and verdant, and there is no harm.
Lin Luoran is also a little surprised when she sees the snake monster trapped as she wished. If she wants to transmute this primitive monster by flame alone, it will take her more than one month. She doesn’t know what to do next.
“What else do you need?” Black Tortoise gives her guidance at the most appropriate time.
Lin Luoran is moved. Monsters have been afraid of fire for a long time. Ancient humans slept in the open air and they lit a bonfire to deter the monsters.
As for monsters, flames only mean deterrence and torture.
What they are really afraid of is the punishment from Tao of nature.
Lin Luoran suddenly understands, “I also need thunder.”
What she needs is the Heaven and Earth Thunder Doom. Lin Luoran’s fingertips move again. The frequency changes from freehand brushwork to strong and impactful colors of oil painting. Graceful and relaxed music becomes a high-pitched march, which seems so moving under the sky.
The thunder and lightning are accumulating power in the changing sky. All the monsters in secret land think it must because someone is too leisure to challenge the rules of secret land.
White Fairy is trembling slightly. It is the soul’s natural fear of Thunder Doom.
Black Tortoise is gratified. In the past three hundred years, Lin Luoran has grown up.
Lin Luoran says she needs thunder, and the purple thunder really comes down.
Thunder pillars flicker with blue electric arc and fall on the snake monster surrounded by flames.
Every thunder strike triggers the scream of the snake monster.
Every thunder strike is also consuming the Meta in Lin Luoran’s body, which is the inevitable loss because of communicating with Gods and talking to the law.
Writing the golden word figure with the personal ability of Gathering Vitality—the power of thunder and lightning is incomparable to the real Heaven’s Doom. However, it is not difficult to destroy the personal ability of a double-headed snake.
The double-headed snake is miserable and twisted. It was caught ten thousand years ago because a human race girl said “lock it up” gracefully. In fact, it didn’t suffer too much.
It was afraid of the man in robe, but the ability of the man in robe constantly refreshed its conjectures.
The double-headed snake doesn’t know whether it should feel lucky about that the man in robe didn’t do it in person. This is the last thought emerged in its mind. The next second, its ocean of consciousness turns into a cloud of chaos and then finally closes completely.
Monsters become intellectual, start to self-cultivation, and then finally humanize. Lin Luoran beats the double-headed snake back to the situation before it was intellectual. Her Meta is also exhausted. Her right hand writing the golden word figure drops weakly, and the double-headed snake is beaten back to its origin form. Without personal ability to protect its body, how can it stop the flame?
The body of the snake is burnt to ashes, falls to the ground with a snap and breaks into several fragments.
Strangely, the jade plates took by the snake monster are missing.
Lin Luoran collapses, failing to maintain the flame trapping Bai Zhi. Bai Zhi sees the situation and wants to escape. Black Tortoise opens its mouth. It inhales and swallows her into his abdomen.
