Evolution and Emergence from Seclusion
While Lin Ming Pill Refining, in the distant Tagor Desert, a group of people rode a huge Flying Magical Beast through the Snake People Race's defenses and headed into the Snake People Race's territory.
"Humans, why have you forcibly entered our territory without our permission? If you don't want to provoke a war between the Jia Ma Empire and the Snake People Race, then go back to where you came from!" Upon seeing the arrival of this group, a burly male Snake Person with strange black tattoos on his arms said coldly.
"Hehe, this must be Leader Mo Basi of the Mo Snake Tribe, right?" After the male Snake Person finished speaking, a middle-aged man with an extraordinary demeanor slowly stepped forward from the group of pedestrians and said with a smile.
"Who are you?" Mo Basi asked in a low voice, his eyes filled with a chilling gaze as he looked at the man who had identified himself.
"Hehe, I am Gu He!" The middle-aged man ignored Mo Basi's unfriendly gaze and said with a slight smile.
"The Pill King Gu He of the Jia Ma Empire? Heh, that name is legendary!" Mo Basi exclaimed in surprise upon hearing the name Gu He.
Because of the extremely cold Snake People Bloodline, they are not suited to Alchemist Snake Person.
It is precisely because the entire race lacks Alchemist that the Snake Person -Snake People Race, especially their high-ranking members, are all the more aware of how noble Alchemist are.
This is because when these high-ranking Snake Person are conceiving, they would hire Alchemist to Pill Refining for them, in order to make their offspring have greater potential.
In the original novel, when Medusa was pregnant, she had Xiao Yan refine pills. At that time, Medusa herself used 6th Grade pills, while the rest of the Snake People Race could only afford Fifth Grade pills. Moreover, even Fifth Grade pills required a huge price to be paid to have Tier 5 Alchemist refine them. Therefore, the Snake Person Leader were well aware of the immense power a 6th Grade Alchemist could wield.
"Hehe, two Leader, we have come to your noble home with great intrusion, but we have something we wish to discuss with Queen Medusa. Would you be so kind as to ask His Majesty to appear and speak with us?" Gu He said with a smile after seeing the Snake Person Leader's reaction.
Upon hearing Gu He's request, the Snake Person immediately refused. Although they didn't want to offend a 6th Grade Alchemist, Her His Majesty the Queen, as the faith of the Snake People Race, was not someone they could simply meet. Even if this person was 6th Grade Alchemist Gu He, it wouldn't work.
Upon hearing the Snake Person's refusal, Gu He's side couldn't sit still any longer, and someone immediately spoke out with arrogant words. As a result, the atmosphere between the two sides is now tense and on the verge of conflict.
In this delicate atmosphere, a space in the sky suddenly began to distort eerily. Then, from within this distorted space, an extremely alluring figure emerged.
Upon seeing this figure appear, the Snake Person experts immediately showed joy, while the human experts were filled with apprehension.
"You're looking for me?" As soon as the figure appeared, the bewitching face turned towards Gu He, and then a cold voice came from its mouth.
Facing Queen Medusa, Gu He respectfully expressed his desire to exchange for the Green Lotus Core Flame.
Queen Medusa, who wanted to evolve using the Green Lotus Core Flame, naturally saw the negotiations break down, just like in the original story, regarding the exchange proposed by Gu He.
As negotiations broke down and a fight broke out between the two sides, Xiao Yan, who had been hiding nearby, took the opportunity to head to the land of Queen Medusa's evolution.
Upon arriving at the Queen Medusa's evolution site, Xiao Yan, seeing the naked Queen Medusa preparing to evolve, couldn't help but touch his nose to check if there was any unpleasant discharge. Fortunately, he didn't feel anything.
A moment later, Queen Medusa hardened her heart and threw herself into the Green Lotus Core Flame.
As Queen Medusa engaged, the Green Lotus Core Flame surged instantly, and then, Queen Medusa's screams echoed incessantly.
Hearing Queen Medusa's scream, Xiao Yan couldn't help but shudder. After all, if even a Peak Dou Emperor like Medusa could scream like that, one could imagine the extent of her pain.
"Boom!"
A thunderclap shattered the sky, sounding out of nowhere. Then, the sky changed rapidly, as if the end of the world was unfolding above.
"Teacher, what's going on?" Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask, looking at the strange phenomenon in the sky.
Faced with Xiao Yan's question, Old Yao pondered for a moment before recounting what he knew about the unusual phenomena that accompanied the birth of ancient beasts.
Not long after the Old Yao finished speaking, a life force emanated from Queen Medusa's remains, which had been burned by the Heavenly Flames.
Sensing this Life Aura, Xiao Yan's heart leaped into his throat. If Queen Medusa successfully evolved, she would definitely take away the Green Lotus Core Flame again. At that point, his risky journey here would have been completely meaningless.
After a moment of anxious waiting, the life within Queen Medusa's remains manifested as a seven-colored ray of light.
"Teacher, what is this?" Seeing the seven-colored light finally coalesce into a small snake hovering above the remains of the body, as if curiously observing the world, Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask.
"This is Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python!" Upon seeing the small snake before him, Old Yao couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Seeing Xiao Yan's blank expression, Old Yao Xiao Yan the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python to him again.
After receiving Old Yao's explanation, Xiao Yan immediately considered taking the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python as a pet. However, unlike in the original story, without the Amethyst Companion Source, Xiao Yan, after a period of effort, Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python remained motionless.
"Xiao Yan, forget about the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, quickly put away the Green Lotus Core Flame and leave. The Snake Person expert is about to enter." After a moment, Old Yao sensed the Snake Person's aura and immediately spoke up.
Hearing Old Yao's words, Xiao Yan had no choice but to reluctantly store the Green Lotus Core Flame into the Green Lotus Pedestal Platform.
After accepting the Green Lotus Core Flame, Xiao Yan wanted to try again, but upon seeing the Green Lotus Core Flame in Xiao Yan's hand, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python instinctively retreated.
"Hurry up!" Seeing that Xiao Yan was still determined, Old Yao urged him immediately, and then controlled Xiao Yan to fly away.
As the figure departed, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, left alone, unconsciously shifted its lively eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
As Queen Medusa evolved, deep underground in the Imperial City of the Jia Ma Empire, the Purple Light Cocoon that Zi Yan had transformed into suddenly shone brightly. Then, as the cocoon shattered, an extremely alluring figure emerged from within.
Seeing that her body had finally shed its petite form, Zi Yan was about to be overjoyed, but just a moment later, the figure began to shrink again, and then returned to Zi Yan's previous petite form.
