Mysterious Medicine Valley

Following the four Snake People Elders, Lin Mu returned to the Snake People Tribe. Although the hostile stares around him remained, with the four elders present, the other snake people did not dare act rashly.

"Damn it, what is Her Majesty the Queen thinking? Why would she trust a human like him?"

Within the crowd, Mo Bass clenched his fists tightly, his gaze seemingly wishing it could tear Lin Mu apart alive.

"Mo Bass, although our Snake People Race has always despised humans, Her Majesty the Queen's decision is not something you may question." The Gray Robe Old Snake Person snorted coldly.

"If Her Majesty the Queen heard what you just said, I'm afraid you would not escape a trip to the Snake Cave..." Yue Mei said from the side. Even she could not understand why Her Majesty the Queen truly trusted this human before them.

"Hmph."

Mo Bass could only retreat with a livid expression.

"Her Majesty the Queen is inside. Go in."

A Snake People Elder spoke to Lin Mu.

After Lin Mu entered the great hall, the Snake People Great Elder said, "It seems Her Majesty the Queen is truly somewhat interested in him..."

Lin Mu entered the great hall and immediately saw Queen Medusa seated ahead. She lazily supported her fair, exquisite face with slender fingers and cast Lin Mu a glance.

"Hand over the Seven-Colored Spirit Flame."

Her words were calm, yet carried an unmistakable sense that they could not be challenged.

"Hehe, the Seven-Colored Spirit Flame I possess is currently only a seed flame. It must wait until it matures before it can be used for evolution." Lin Mu smiled faintly.

A trace of killing intent surged in Queen Medusa's beautiful eyes. "Are you toying with me?"

Sensing the terrifying aura faintly emerging from her, Lin Mu instead stepped forward a few paces. "I haven't finished speaking."

"Have you heard of the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid?"

Upon hearing that name, Queen Medusa was first stunned, then immense shock rose within her. Although almost no one in the Snake People Race still knew of the Seven-Colored Spirit Flame, as Queen Medusa, she naturally knew far more.

"I had only seen the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid in ancient records. How did he know of it?"

First the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, and now the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid. Why did this human know so many secrets of the Snake People Race?

"Once we find the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid and add the Seven-Colored Spirit Flame, we can ensure that you evolve into the legendary Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python."

Lin Mu walked forward with a smile.

"The Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid disappeared from this world long ago. What you speak of is nothing but empty talk."

Queen Medusa said.

"Indeed. But according to what I know, five hundred li west of here lies a Medicine Valley. Within it exists the last trace of Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid."

Lin Mu's words finally changed Queen Medusa's calm expression.

"Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid truly still exists in this world?"

Lin Mu said to Queen Medusa, "My cultivation technique is special. Even though the Seven-Colored Spirit Flame is currently only a seed flame, given some time, I can evolve it into true flame."

"And before that, if we obtain the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid, your evolution will naturally follow."

Queen Medusa rose to her feet. "I have heard of that Medicine Valley as well. It is said to have been left behind by a Venerate in ancient times. I went there several years ago, but retreated because I could not open the seal within."

"A seal left behind by a Dou Venerate..."

Lin Mu nodded. It was indeed rather troublesome.

But as long as it was a seal, there would be a way to break it.

"I've already told you so much. So when will you become my cultivation partner?"

Lin Mu smiled.

"Impudence."

Queen Medusa looked coldly at Lin Mu. "There have been no shortage of people who wished to obtain me. In the end, however, all of them paid the price for overestimating themselves."

"Human, I can give you one chance to live. Hand over the Seven-Colored Spirit Flame, and you may leave this place safely."

Queen Medusa looked at Lin Mu mockingly.

"Oh? Then I will also give you a chance to become my woman. I will help you evolve and guarantee that, in the future, I will help you become the legendary Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python."

At those words, Queen Medusa's delicate body trembled.

"Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python?"

Upon hearing this name that existed only in legends, Queen Medusa could no longer maintain her inner calm.

"You? Becoming the legendary Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. You are merely a human. What gives you the right to say such things?"

Lin Mu shook his head.

"With my strength as a Three-star Dou Emperor, I can defeat you, a Peak Dou Emperor. Medusa, sooner or later, you will be my woman. If you are ready, then let us depart for that Medicine Valley."

Hearing Lin Mu's words, Medusa nearly failed to restrain herself from attacking him directly. Yet at present, the most important thing seemed to be finding the Seven-Colored Spirit Liquid and embarking on the path of evolution.

As long as she became a true Dou Zong, not only could she lead her people out of this desert, but within the Jia Ma Empire, no human would dare invade the Snake People Race again!

"It will not be so easy."

Medusa snorted coldly. "That Medicine Valley is filled with dense poisonous gas, seemingly left behind by its former owner. Ordinary people cannot enter at all."

"Poisonous gas?"

Lin Mu frowned. The system had not told him about this.

"Even Dou Zong experts would not dare underestimate poisonous gas left behind by a Dou Venerate. Though after all these years, much of the poison gas within has already dissipated, it is still not somewhere just anyone can enter."

Lin Mu scratched his head. "Poisonous gas? Could that deceased Dou Venerate have been a Poison Master?"

"It was not Dou Qi, but a special constitution called the Calamity Poison Body."

Queen Medusa spoke, and upon hearing the name Calamity Poison Body, Lin Mu was startled. "The Calamity Poison Body? You even know about the Calamity Poison Body?"

"When I visited the Medicine Valley before, I found a seal at the entrance. This special Calamity Poison Body constitution was recorded upon it." Queen Medusa explained. But because she did not know what the Calamity Poison Body truly was, she did not continue deeper into the Medicine Valley.

Seeing Lin Mu fall silent, Medusa only snorted coldly after a long while.

"If you wish to go there, you will at least need someone proficient in both medicine and poison."

If they could also find someone with a Calamity Poison Body, breaking the seal within the Medicine Valley would be even easier. However, Medusa did not believe Lin Mu could find the legendary Calamity Poison Body.

After all, before this, she had never even heard of such a poison constitution.

Suddenly, Lin Mu smiled faintly, raised his head, and spoke to Medusa.

"I think I know the person you mean. She definitely will not disappoint you."
