Reborn Through Fire

Looking at the ball of blue flame, Xiao Yan couldn't help but clench his fists.

This ball of azure flame possessed great spirituality. As it churned slightly, it would sometimes condense into the shape of a lotus flower, and sometimes into a small azure flame snake, floating and coiling within the lotus seat.

That Crystal Lotus Platform was clearly no ordinary object. Every time the cyan flames were about to escape the lotus platform's range, a faint white light shield would suddenly appear and intercept them.

Each time the Heavenly Flames came into contact with the light barrier, the Ice Spirit Cold Spring in the pool would decrease slightly. Clearly, the crystal lotus seat was able to trap the Green Lotus Core Flame within it by relying on the power of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring.

After glancing at the small pond, Xiao Yan continued looking forward, where a beautiful and alluring face came into view.

This was the first time Xiao Yan had seen the living Queen Medusa. A luxurious and expensive purple brocade robe wrapped her graceful body, and her full and proud figure exuded a bewitching and wild allure. Her pair of narrow, light purple eyes were naturally captivating.

Beneath the purple brocade robe, a section of purple snake tail was visible, lazily swaying and exuding wildness and exotic charm.

Since I succeeded once in my dream, there's no reason why I won't succeed in reality.

She has every reason to succeed!

Gazing at the blue flames in the pool, Queen Medusa took a deep breath, then stretched out her hand with an extremely firm expression, slowly forming several hand seals in front of her.

As Queen Medusa's hand seals changed, the crystal lotus throne suddenly trembled violently, and the light screen on it gradually disappeared. After the light screen disappeared, the unrestrained blue flames burst out and, in the blink of an eye, transformed into a raging fire.

Beneath this blazing blue flame, the Ice Spirit Cold Spring in the small pool was evaporating at a visible rate.

The surrounding bamboo withered rapidly from the scorching heat, and Xiao Yan's mouth became parched from the intense heat of the Heavenly Flames, as if he had been walking in the desert for three days without drinking water.

Queen Medusa then reached out her slender hand and casually pulled off the purple ribbon binding her dark hair, instantly revealing her smooth, black hair cascading down to her waist.

She gently tossed her head, her hair moving with it. This casual movement added a touch of alluring charm to Queen Medusa Xiao Yan, leaving even the virgin Xiao Yan completely mesmerized.

With her hands slightly clasped together and her beautiful eyes half-closed, Queen Medusa hands continuously changed into strange hand seals. As her hand seals changed, the energy fluctuations between heaven and earth in the bamboo forest suddenly became more intense, eventually forming a huge energy vortex above the small island.

A purple light curtain then spread out, seemingly a special kind of barrier spell.

"Teacher, do you think she can succeed?"

Xiao Yan asked in his heart.

"Don't you already know?"

The Old Yao asked with a smile.

"It's hard to say. She's now more than six years ahead of the normal timeline. I'm worried she might not have enough background knowledge..."

Xiao Yan scratched his head and said.

"Well, evolving by relying on the immense energy of Heavenly Flames is inherently three parts effort, seven parts luck, and the remaining ninety parts are all up to fate."

Upon hearing this, the Old Yao gave a vague reply.

Although he was very knowledgeable, this was indeed the first time he had ever seen Queen Medusa evolve.

At this moment, Queen Medusa had transformed into a giant purple serpent that was over ten zhang long.

The giant purple serpent had a long and powerful body, with an understated elegance. Its pale purple pupils did not have the ferocity and bestiality of a magical beast, but rather a human-like firmness and determination.

Under Xiao Yan's shocked gaze, the giant purple snake coiled around a few times, then let out a clear, low growl before resolutely plunging headfirst into the ball of azure flame.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan was filled with awe, but he subtly retreated.

It was just a nascent Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, not even fully formed, yet it almost burned him to death. If it weren't for Old Yao's intervention, Xiao Yan would be nothing but ashes by now.

Queen Medusa directly confronted the Green Lotus Core Flame at its peak, and even with the suppression of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, it was still incredibly awe-inspiring.

The instant the purple serpent slithered into the Heavenly Flames, Queen Medusa's shrill scream rang out!

Hearing the shrill scream of Queen Medusa emanating from the Heavenly Flames, Xiao Yan felt a chill run down his spine. His gaze, hidden by the bamboo leaves, fell upon the ball of blue flame in mid-air.

The enormous purple snake was writhing wildly. Xiao Yan could clearly see that the snake scales on its body began to twist rapidly shortly after entering the Heavenly Flames, and were eventually Heavenly Flames and fell off the snake's body.

After the snake scales fell off, bright red blood gushed out. However, the blood was instantly burned into nothingness by the terrifying temperature of the Heavenly Flames. The bleeding wound was also scorched yellow and even black.

"Squeak... squeak..."

Standing on the small island, Xiao Yan could even hear the hissing sounds coming from the Heavenly Flames. As a large amount of blood and bodily fluids evaporated, the purple snake's enormous body was shrinking at a visible rate.

The fact that even the proud and powerful Queen Medusa could be driven to such a frantic, piercing scream suggests the intense pain she was enduring.

The bamboo forest had been warped by the residual heat of the Heavenly Flames and could no longer completely conceal Xiao Yan's figure, so he retreated a little and entered the bamboo forest that was still relatively intact.

But at this moment, Queen Medusa was clearly too preoccupied to notice whether anyone else was nearby.

Because Queen Medusa's commotion was so great, her shrill screams almost echoed throughout half the city. Immediately, countless Snake-People warriors scrambled onto the rooftops, staring in horror at the enormous purple serpent writhing violently in the blue flames deep within the temple.

Seeing the Medusa's pitiful state, Hua She'er couldn't bear it and closed her eyes.

"Your Medusa, what is this...?"

Upon seeing this, Yue Mei immediately understood what Queen Medusa was doing, and her expression changed instantly.

"Yes, Medusa Majesty's sudden action was precisely to prevent any powerful human beings from receiving the message. With the barrier in place, no one can disturb her, and the guards have been arranged. So far, nothing unusual has occurred. Now it all depends on whether Her Medusa can succeed!"

Hua She'er nodded and said.

"Well!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Mei's expression also darkened.

The Medusa has truly sacrificed so much for the Snake-Person Tribe!
