Seal Dou Qi

The Snake-People below were extremely surprised by the capture of their Bald Great Commander, who possessed the strength of Dou Emperor.

Queen Medusa, suspended in mid-air, was the same.

No one expected that Xiao Ming, like the Great Commander, had hidden a trick in his attack.

This meant that they didn't have time to react when the Great Commander was captured. Even Queen Medusa, who reacted the fastest, only managed to reach the Bald Great Commander Great Commander a short distance away and didn't have time to save him.

Of course, this doesn't mean Queen Medusa's reaction was slow; it just means Xiao Ming was faster.

Looking at the Great Commander, his eyes rolling back in his head as he was coiled by the giant white serpent, his right arm hanging limply and bleeding profusely, Queen Medusa said coldly, "Human, if you release the Great Commander, I'll let you leave, how about that? You used your Secret Technique; you can't hold on much longer, can you?"

"If you want the Sand Mandara, we can exchange it for you."

With a thought, Xiao Ming transformed his spirit into a thin thread to bind the Bald Great Commander.

"Hehe, how long my Secret Technique can last is none of your concern, Lady Medusa. If you want your Great Commander to Undying, prepare the Sand Mandara. The day after tomorrow, wait for me in the Green Continent near the Charming Snake Tribe."

"By the way, don't even think about ambushing me. You should all understand the power of Alchemist's Spiritual Power without me having to explain it."

Before Queen Medusa could reply, Xiao Ming, holding the Bald Great Commander in his right hand, flapped his Silver Wings and transformed into a streak of silver light, shooting off into the distance.

Because Xiao Ming was holding the Great Commander in his hand, the Snake-People on the city wall dared not attack rashly. Queen Medusa chased after Xiao Ming for a while, but found that Xiao Ming quickly disappeared from her sight, which forced Queen Medusa to stop.

Behind them, Flower Snake and Yue Mei, both with the strength of Dou Wang, followed closely.

"Your Her Majesty the Queen, where is that human?" Flower Snake asked cautiously, looking at Queen Medusa stood there with a gloomy face.

"He's gone. He's incredibly fast; he must have practiced some kind of Dou Skill that enhances speed," Queen Medusa said in a deep voice, glancing at Flower Snake.

"Ah?! What about the Great Commander?" Flower Snake's expression turned grim. The Snake People Race didn't have many strong individuals; there were only a dozen or so Dou Emperor Dou Wang. Losing a high-level Dou Emperor would be a devastating blow to the Snake People Race.

"What else can we do but exchange it for the Sand Mandara?" Queen Medusa sighed, somewhat helplessly.

To be honest, she was also somewhat surprised by how things had developed. Snake People Race were generally stronger than humans of the same level, and the Great Commander was a Major Stage higher than Xiao Ming. Under such circumstances, it was still possible to capture him alive.

Queen Medusa didn't know whether to say the Great Commander was too useless or that the opponent was too powerful.

To say that the Great Commander is too weak is probably not true. Medusa has fought the Great Commander and knows that although his strength is not as great as hers, he is still a strong opponent among Dou Emperor. It can only be said that Xiao Ming is too strong.

However, in the exchange of the Sand Mandara for the Great Commander, it's clear that the Serpent Snake Soul Sacred Fruit will be unavailable, let alone the pills refined from it.

Queen Medusa thought for a moment, then asked Yue Mei, "Besides knowing this human's name and that he's from the Jia Nan Academy, what other information do you know about him?"

Upon hearing Medusa's question, Yue Mei hesitated for a moment before replying, "He didn't reveal any other information. However, my tribe is located in the direction of the Jia Ma Empire, so the other party might be from the Jia Ma Empire."

"Someone from the Jia Ma Empire? If it really is, this person is so young yet possesses such strength; they must be quite famous in the Jia Ma Empire. Perhaps we should..." Flower Snake had a bold idea.

But before I could even speak, Queen Medusa interrupted me.

"Forget it. The internal environment of the Jia Ma Empire is complex, with many powerful individuals. The other party is Grade Six Alchemist with immense influence. Trying to cause trouble for them on their own territory would only be asking for trouble."

"Should we ambush him at the location he mentioned? The Tagor Desert —we have some secret techniques that can effectively conceal our Aura. Even if he's Alchemist, it would be difficult for him to detect us."

"We can't take that risk. Let's get the Great Commander back first. Hmm, by the way, let's go back to the Treasure Vault and get some more medicinal herbs. Let's see if we can exchange them for that Snake Soul Sacred Fruit," Medusa said, frowning.

"Yes!"

After flying with the Bald Great Commander for quite some time, Xiao Ming's speed gradually decreased, and he landed on a stretch of Gobi Desert.

At this moment, Xiao Ming's Aura was somewhat weak, which was a side effect of using the Heavenly Flame Three Mysterious Changes. Xiao Ming did not pay much attention to it. He first sensed the area behind him and, after confirming that no one was chasing him, he casually threw the Bald Great Commander on the ground.

The Bald Great Commander was thrown to the ground, landing squarely on his crippled arm. The intense pain jolted him awake with a scream.

"Ah--"

Shut up! Or I'll punch you.

The shouts abruptly stopped at Xiao Ming's command.

Seemingly ashamed of his reaction, the Bald Great Commander stared at Xiao Ming in front of him, feeling both embarrassed and ashamed.

Can Xiao Ming tolerate this?

"Slap!" He walked over and slapped her across the face.

The slap was powerful and heavy, making the Bald Great Commander's head buzz, and the left side of his face that came into contact with Xiao Ming's palm swelled up.

After a while, the Great Commander recovered and stared at Xiao Ming with a fierce look.

Xiao Ming raised his hand and slapped him again.

After two minutes of being slapped hard across the face, the Great Commander felt as if Xiao Ming had multiplied from one to several, and dared not show his fierce eyes again.

Rubbing his slightly sore hands, Xiao Ming muttered to himself.

"This Great Commander is really shameless; my hand is getting sore from hitting him."

Xiao Ming slapped the Great Commander's face purely to retaliate for his previous rudeness, so he only used physical strength. However, the fact that the commander-in-chief's hand felt a little sore also shows that the Bald Great Commander -in-chief was physically fit.

Looking at the Great Commander, who was huddled up like a quail.

Xiao Ming shook his head and took out a pill from his Na Ring.

As a wealthy Alchemist, Xiao Ming's Na Ring contained various Qi Recovery and Healing Medicinal Pill.

Of course, he didn't intend for the Great Commander to take the pill; instead, he put it directly into his own mouth.

Feeling his Dou Qi recovering, Xiao Ming nodded in satisfaction.

Then, the Soul Power surged forth, searching for some caves in the Gobi Desert.

A minute later, Xiao Ming opened his eyes, Great Commander, and disappeared from the spot.

When it reappears, it will already be in a cave somewhere in the Gobi Desert.

After driving away a Third Tier Poison Scorpion from the cave, Xiao Ming threw the Great Commander to the ground, then found a clean spot, sat cross-legged, and circulated his Dou Qi to heal his injuries.

The cave was quiet, without a sound.

The Great Commander, lying on the ground, looked at Xiao Ming, who was motionless but whose aura was gradually recovering. His eyes darted around, and he was extremely anxious.

"This human's injuries are healing. No, I need to find a way to escape."

The Great Commander braced himself with his arms, trying to break free of the spirits wrapped around him.

However, no matter how hard he tried, Ling remained motionless. Instead, the movement aggravated his wound, causing him to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.

Seeing that he couldn't break free from the spirit wrapped around his body, the Great Commander devised another plan and began to wriggle his body to crawl out.

The Snake People Race have many Secret Techniques, one of which is to swap places with any snake they come into contact with. There are quite a few snakes in the Tagor Desert, and once he leaves this cave, he can easily find a snake, cast this spell, and then he can escape.

After a tremendous amount of effort, the Great Commander was finally close to climbing out of the cave.

Suddenly, Xiao Ming's voice rang in his ear.

"If I were you, I wouldn't do that."

When did you get out?!

The Great Commander froze.

Xiao Ming chuckled lightly, but did not answer. Instead, he dragged the other's tail back into the depths of the cave.

Throwing the Great Commander to the ground, Xiao Ming rapidly moved his hands, gathering his Dou Qi in them, with wisps of flame appearing within.

"You... you... what do you want to do!? I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless!" the Bald Great Commander shouted sternly.

Xiao Ming snorted coldly, paused, and a strange mark was slapped into the Great Commander's body.

As soon as the mark entered his body, the Great Commander felt an unprecedented emptiness throughout his body.

"Human, you actually sealed my Dou Qi!"

"Hehe, who told you to be dishonest? This sealing Secret Technique was taught to me by my teacher, and it even uses a trace of Heavenly Flames. Unless I break it myself, or use Sixth Rank pill to break it, you'll only ever be Da Dou Shi for the rest of your life," Xiao Ming chuckled.
