Chapter 382 The 1,000-Year-Old Snow Lotus

Ju Zhu hesitated for a moment and did not take the matrix banner at once, but Demon of Fire, who did not suspect anything, took the matrix banners with Woebegone Monk and went to put them at the locations Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist had told them.

After seeing nothing suspicious, Ju Zhu also took the matrix banner and went to put it in the southwest Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist pointed.

Just as they set up the banners, Woebegone Monk suddenly rushed like lightning to the side.

“God, we have been cheated!”

Ju Zhu and Demon of Fire changed their expressions dramatically, knowing that they had been trapped by Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist and Woebegone Monk, but now it was too late to escape, and they could only reach out their hands to the matrix banners on the ground to break the great matrix.

“Hahaha, your reaction is quick, but it’s already too late!”

Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist gave a wild and ferocious laugh. When he waved the two matrix banners in his hands, the space within 100 meters covered by the matrix banner flickered for a while. Then, Ju Zhu and Demon of Fire felt that the scene in front of them changed and they had already been in a white space.

“Long Eyebrow, I f*ck your ancestors. B*stard, you even try to trap me...”

With a bad temper, Demon of Fire could not help swearing, but the power of the matrix had blocked his sound. He could not even see the trace of Ju Zhu who was also in the matrix, so it was even harder for his sound to travel to the outside.

The dwarf panicked and directed the giant to run straight and quickly, hoping to break through the great matrix. Unfortunately, what was in the great matrix was nothing but the white fog, and the visibility was less than 5 meters. It seemed that the area was boundless, and he could not reach the end of it no matter how hard he tried to run.

Like him, Demon of Fire was also trying this way, hoping to break through the great matrix.

The two of them thought that they were running in a straight line, but in the eyes of Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist and Woebegone Monk, they were just running on the spot like two flies without aims.

“Well, now we should end this. The matrix is really good.”

Woebegone Monk took out the half-finished trotter with joy and continued to bit it.

“Right, it is time to end this!”

When Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist planted the matrix banner in his hand into the ground, fires suddenly appeared in the matrix, and the temperature rose rapidly, forming a sea of fire.

“Oh, no, Ju Zhu still has the 1,000-year-old snow lotus.”

Woebegone Monk, who was appreciating the great matrix while biting his trotter, suddenly changed his expression and shouted.

“Right, I forgot this.”

Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist patted his forehead with annoyance. “Not like the Treasure, the 1,000-year-old snow lotus will be burned to ashes.”

“What should we do now?”

Woebegone Monk thumped his chest and stamped his feet, feeling quite distressed.

Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist’s eyes glinted. “Let’s do it this way. In a short while, I will open the life path, and then you can go in, launch a surprise attack on Ju Zhu, and take the 1,000-year-old snow lotus.”

“Surprise attack? Ju Zhu also has a brother, so how can I deal with the two of them? Besides that, the inside is full of fire, and I can’t survive there.”

Woebegone Monk said hesitantly.

“When Ju Zhu and Demon of Fire are almost dead, I will let you in. As long as I control the great matrix, you should have no worries. You go in along the life path I open, and the fire will never touch you.”

Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist said confidently.

Woebegone Monk hesitated for a long time, but he finally could not resist the temptation of the 1,000-year-old snow lotus and, gritting his teeth, said, “Fine, this should be the only way.”

Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist stood there with his hands knotted behind his back. Looking at the blaze and thick smoke in the great matrix, he felt a little regret and thought, “The Eight Wild Flame Matrix is one of the strongest killing matrices in the incomplete map of matrices. Unfortunately, it is incomplete, so I can’t clearly see what is inside the matrix, or I can check the conditions of Ju Zhu and Demon of Fire at any time and choose the best time to send Woebegone Monk in.”

Time went by second by second. In the blink of an eye, 20 minutes passed. Woebegone Monk scratched his ears and chin anxiously and muttered constantly, “It should be the time?”

“Wait a few more moments. Ju Zhu and Demon of Fire are all masters who have reached the peak level of the Earth Martial Arts Realm, and they won’t die so easily.”

Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist was not sure, but for the sake of safety, he decided to wait a few more moments.

“This seems to be the Eight Wild Flame Matrix. Fortunately, I made the Fire-suppressing Charm with the red coral, or if I made the charm with another material, it might be melted by the high temperature in a short while.”

In the great matrix, Ding Ning sat on the front of the Phaeton and gave off a layer of red dim light, driving the roaring fire 3 meters away, as if he and the flame were in the two different worlds. Untouched by the flame, he mumbled in high spirits.

The red coral grew in the Spiritual Crystal of Fire mine. Unless it met some rare strange fires, or the ordinary fire did not pose a threat to it at all.

This Eight Wild Flame Matrix was like the real one, but it had some specific differences. After comparing them many times, Ding Ning confirmed that this matrix was the basic flame matrix Eight Wild Flame Matrix.

He did not see through the previous Trapping Matrix, but now when the Eight Wild Flame Matrix was launched, the Trapping Matrix had lost its function, making him quite energetic. “Now it should be the time to leave the matrix.”

He stowed the Phaeton in the Ghost Space and walked along the life path to the outside. Since he was so afraid of the Trapping Matrix, although he could break the great matrix, he did not decide to break it, for fear that he would get into another Trapping Matrix. If so, that would be too bad.

“What?”

Just when he took a leisurely walk in the great matrix, he found that the giant was kneeling on the ground, dead in a fireball. Under his protection, the dwarf was still struggling to breathe in his arms, but he kept swearing miserably and angrily at Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist and Woebegone Monk with venomous curses.

A cold look glinted in Ding Ning’s eyes. When he saw Ju Zhu, he knew what had happened. It must be that he wanted to take the non-existent Treasure, so he asked some helpers to kill him and take the Treasure, but he was trapped by others. To such a person, he showed no mercy, for the person deserved to die.

He took a cold look at Ju Zhu and turned around and left. Before he took too many steps, a fire-less channel suddenly appeared before him along the life path.

Ding Ning narrowed the look in his eyes. “Is anyone coming in?” He had taken one step back silently to avoid the life path line and stood in the fire, hoping to see who on earth was coming.

A bald monk rushed in anxiously. The high temperature even made the air become twisted, so he did not replace Ding Ning when he rubbed shoulders past him.

“This should be the Woebegone Monk the dwarf swore at, but why does he come in now? The dwarf will be burned to death soon, but why should he need to risk his life to come in?”

Ding Ning was a little confused about the action of the monk and followed him with curiosity, thinking about killing him in the great matrix. If so, he would have one less enemy in a while.

“Woebegone Monk, Old Dog Long Eyebrow, both of you won’t have a natural death. Even if I turn into a ghost, I won’t let you off.”

Although he had been protected by his brother’s corpse, the dwarf was now almost dead after having been smoked and burned for so long, but he swore angrily, his eyes bloodshot and his face as fierce as a ghost’s.

“Haha, not dead, that’s great. Now give me the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, and I, your Buddha Grandpa, will consider killing you smoothly. You want to be a ghost? Don’t you know what I do? This is something that I fear the least. No matter how many that can come, I will destroy them all.”

Woebegone Monk was surprised to replace that the dwarf had not been burned to ashes and reached out his hands to the dwarf proudly.

“No way. I would rather destroy the 1,000-year-old snow lotus than give it to a b*stard like you.”

The dwarf was bound to die today, shouting angrily at Woebegone Monk. Then, he took out a wooden box and threw it to the fire.

“Cursed short man, you dare!”

Woebegone Monk was so anxious that he had to ignore Senior Long-Eyebrow Taoist’s instruction that he should not leave the safety line of the life path, leaping like lightning to the air to catch that wooden box.

“1,000-year-old snow lotus?” Ding Ning had a glint in his eyes and trembled out of excitement, for he never thought that the dwarf had something so nice. The truth was that it was extremely rare to see a 100-year-old snow lotus, let alone a 1,000-year-old one.

“Ah!”

Woebegone Monk had extraordinary cultivation, but he had not reached the Sky Martial Arts Realm yet and could not protect himself with the Spiritual Power or block the fire with the Vigorous Qi like a master of national martial arts. When he left the track of the life path and caught the wooden box, he only saw fire because he had fallen into the sea of fire and could not return to the safety route anymore. The terrifying fire burned him instantly, and he could not help making a scream.

Ding Ning was quite anxious, for fear that the 1,000-year-old snow lotus would be destroyed. When he was ready to snatch the wooden box, a figure suddenly appeared, took the wooden box from Woebegone Monk’s hands, and laughed wildly. “Hahaha, Woebegone Monk, I suppose you never thought about today. The 1,000-year-old snow lotus is mine.”

“You... How can you still be all right?”

Woebegone Monk did his best to launch his True Qi, endured the pain of being burned by the fire, and, looking at Demon of Fire incredulously, asked.

“Humph, don’t forget that my name has the word ‘fire’. The great fire matrix has hurt me indeed, but it won’t kill me. Woebegone Monk, I will have to end your life today.”

Demon of Fire gave a cold snort, showed the uncovered killing intention in his glinting eyes, and launched a brutal attack at the chest of Woebegone Monk with his palm.

“Want me to die? Let’s die together!”

Woebegone Monk showed fierceness in his eyes, bore the attack of Demon of Fire straight, ignored that his chest bones had caved in because of the hit, and held his opponent’s hands and feet fast like vines in a strange spiral angle with his limbs.

“You crazy! Let go of your hands!”

Demon of Fire was shocked, hammering Woebegone Monk’s back desperately with his fists. With the hitting, the breaking sounds of the monk’s bones came ceaselessly, his spinal cord was beaten and broken, and his blood gushed out of his mouth crazily.

“Fire... you, you don’t try, try to escape, tr-try my, my Vine-twining Technique; to die, die, let’s, let’s die together... haha!”

Woebegone Monk laughed fiercely and crazily, but the sounds he made were blurring. The fierce look made Demon of Fire shudder, but he could not get rid of him no matter how hard he struggled. The monk seemed to have stuck to him, and he could not get rid of him no matter what he did.

“F*ck, let go of your hands. Is it okay for me to take you out of here?”

Demon of Fire was afraid and yelled in panic.

The fire kung fu he practiced could allow him to stay longer in the fire than an ordinary Ancient Warrior, but he could not bear the endless burning, either. If he stayed in the fire for too long, he would also die.

Woebegone Monk’s kung fu was extremely weird as if he had been planted into the ground. The monk was also unusually heavy. No matter how hard Demon of Fire tried, he could not move at all. The monk’s limbs clung firmly to him like a squid’s tentacles. Although Demon of Fire had broken his spinal cord, he could not get rid of him.

“It’s too late. Let’s go to hell together, hahaha!”

Woebegone Monk laughed crazily, but his breath gradually weakened. As his head drooped, he finally died.

“Hahaha, you deserve to die, you deserve to die, but unfortunately Old Thief Long Eyebrow is not dead yet, so I can’t close my eyes to die...”

The dwarf was covered with fire, laughing wildly, but his laughter suddenly stopped. With endless pities and regrets, he was burned to ashes by the roaring flame.

Demon of Fire wanted to cry but had no tears and never thought that Woebegone Monk was a warlock, whose Vine-Twining Technique was so scary. Although he was already dead, his Vine-Twining Technique was still working: Demon of Fire was locked to the spot and could not move at all, feeling regret that he should not have greedily wanted the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, so that he had to die now.

“Do you want to die or live?”

Like a devil god in the fire, Ding Ning suddenly came to Demon of Fire who felt so much regret from the roaring fire and asked indifferently.

Demon of Fire’s eyes brightened instantly as he suddenly heard a man’s voice. When he saw Ding Ning whom he thought might have long died, he was shocked, shrieking. “Why you?”

“Cut the crap. I just ask you, ‘Do you want to die or live?’”

Ding Ning frowned and asked impatiently.
