Breakthrough to Dou Zong, Confirming Their Relationship

Looking at the purple Heavenly Demon Puppet, Wang Chen was extremely excited.

This is Half-Saint- level fighter!

Not to mention now, even after the original story began, before Huohuo went to Central Plains, puppets at the Half-Saint level were top-tier fighters.

He now possesses a master of that level.

Moreover, it was a super puppet that completely obeyed his commands.

How could he not be excited!

With this Half-Saint Puppet, hunting other Dou Zun will be much easier in the future.

Wang Chen was able to rely on this Half-Saint Heavenly Demon Puppet to grow stronger like a snowball.

Of course, there aren't many experts in the Northwestern Continent, so it won't be easy for Wang Chen to hunt down enough corpses.

However, regardless of the circumstances, having an additional Half-Saint level Heavenly Demon Puppet is a tremendous boon for Wang Chen.

After carefully examining it using his Golden Finger, Wang Chen stored it in his Storage Ring.

Having completed the main tasks of this seclusion, Wang Chen had no desire to continue.

However, he did not immediately leave seclusion, but instead chose to cultivate and recover first.

Crafting a Half-Saint level Heavenly Demon Puppet consumes a considerable amount of Dou Qi.

In other words, Wang Chen himself is overpowered; the depth of his Dou Qi far surpasses that of other masters of the same level.

Even experts at a higher level might not have as much powerful Dou Qi as Wang Chen.

That's why Wang Chen was able to refine the Heavenly Demon Puppet in one go, without having to take any pills along the way.

For any other ordinary cultivator, it would be a pipe dream for a mere Dou Emperor to attempt to create a puppet at the level of Half-Saint.

Just as Wang Chen began his cultivation and recovery, Queen Medusa on the other side also began her attempt to break through to the next level.

Previously, the High Priest, having been through it all, had carefully explained his own experience and the feeling of breaking through to Queen Medusa.

Now that Queen Medusa has finished adjusting her condition, she naturally wants to begin attempting a breakthrough.

Now that the method has changed, adjustments are much simpler.

Previously, Queen Medusa was slow to adjust after her breakthrough in the evolution of her Heavenly Flames.

After all, that kind of breakthrough method is practically a death sentence.

If you're not careful, it might really be gone.

However, attempting a breakthrough using the Sect-Breaking Pill is a completely different story.

With the protection of the elixir's power, even if the breakthrough is not successful, it will not cause much harm to oneself.

At most, it would just be a waste of a Sect-Breaking Pill.

In this situation, adjustments become much simpler.

This Sect-Breaking Pill is extremely important to the Snake People Tribe; if they fail to find a second one, it will be very difficult.

Otherwise, Queen Medusa would have already attempted a breakthrough yesterday, and wouldn't have spent so much time adjusting her condition.

Inside the training Secret Chamber, Queen Medusa calmed herself down, then took out the Sect-Breaking Pill she had obtained from Wang Chen and swallowed it in one gulp.

After the pill entered the body, its immense medicinal power instantly surged in all directions.

Fortunately Queen Medusa was prepared and used her own Dou Qi to refine and control the medicinal power, preventing it from causing her any harm.

With the aid of the medicine, Queen Medusa began to repeatedly attempt to break through the bottleneck of the Dou Zong.

However, this bottleneck, which has held Queen Medusa back for so many years, is certainly not something that can be easily broken through.

Fortunately, the Sect-Breaking Pill refined by Wang Chen was potent enough that no problems arose.

As Queen Medusa attempted her breakthrough, Wang Chen also ended his seclusion.

As soon as Wang Chen stepped out of the High Priest's secluded cultivation place, the servants outside immediately stepped forward to ask if he needed any help.

Where is the High Priest now?

Without hesitation, Wang Chen asked the question he wanted to know.

"When the High Priest left, he specifically told me that if Young Hero Wang needed anything, he could just tell me directly."

The High Priest Queen Medusa are currently occupied with some matters and are unable to entertain Young Master Wang at the moment.

As a servant specially assigned by the High Priest, his level of competence was quite good.

In just a few simple words, the matter was explained clearly.

Upon hearing the servant's words, Wang Chen was taken aback.

After all, this was a major client of the Snake People Tribe, and the other party didn't even have time to entertain him.

But then I realized what was going on.

Having given away the Sect-Breaking Pill, Queen Medusa certainly wouldn't keep it to breed.

Once Queen Medusa attempts to break through using the Sect-Breaking Pill, the High Priest, the person Queen Medusa trusts most, will definitely need to go and protect her.

Therefore, it's understandable that they couldn't entertain themselves.

The people Wang Chen was relatively familiar with in the Snake People Tribe were Queen Medusa and the High Priest.

They all have things to do now, so there's no point in Wang Chen coming out of seclusion.

After all, Wang Chen himself wasn't exactly a social butterfly and couldn't communicate pleasantly with strangers.

Since that's the case, it's better to continue cultivating in seclusion for a while longer, and then come out after Queen Medusa has successfully broken through.

"I don't need anything, so I'll go back to my secluded cultivation."

Wang Chen said something to the servant, then plunged back into the High Priest's secluded cultivation place.

The servant was completely dumbfounded by Wang Chen's actions.

Fortunately, she knew exactly what she was supposed to do and didn't raise any objections.

They returned directly to their place and waited for Wang Chen to emerge from seclusion and make his request.

Back in his secluded cultivation room, Wang Chen began cultivating his Dou Qi.

He hadn't originally planned to work hard to cultivate his Dou Qi here.

After all, it's someone else's territory.

But with nothing to do, the only way to pass the time is to diligently cultivate one's skills.

Of course, Wang Chen didn't completely trust the High Priest.

Since the character didn't appear in the original story, Wang Chen couldn't guess who the other person was.

The reason he's being so enthusiastic now is simply because he's of great use to the Snake People Tribe.

If it's useless, the other party will probably never even acknowledge Wang Chen.

Of course, Wang Chen wasn't worried about the High Priest attacking him.

It's not just because they are strong enough to be unafraid of the other party's schemes and tricks.

More importantly, Wang Chen's role in the Snake People Tribe is now irreplaceable.

A wise man like the High Priest would never provoke Wang Chen.

Cultivating in such a place generally won't cause any problems.

Of course, Wang Chen only summoned a few Flame Spirit to assist in his cultivation.

He did not train with all his might, thus revealing his full strength.

That is, when refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet, the Flame Spirit was used to assist in the refining process.

Otherwise, Wang Chen might not have been able to summon even a single Flame Spirit this time.

Fortunately, Wang Chen's strength is already quite good.

The number of Flame Spirit has also increased significantly.

Exposing a few Flame Spirit isn't a big problem.

With the assistance of the Flame Spirit in his cultivation, Wang Chen's speed in refining the energy of the pills was naturally much faster.

Wang Chen quickly converted the enormous energy from the pill into his own Dou Qi.

Already possessing the strength of 2-Star Dou Huang, he is now striving to reach an even higher star level.

Time passed little by little as Wang Chen devoted himself to arduous cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, five days have passed.

Wang Chen, who was resting after finishing his arduous cultivation at the High Priest's secluded cultivation place, suddenly sensed a flash of Dou Zong aura.

"Breakthrough successful!"

Sensing this powerful aura, Wang Chen understood that Queen Medusa had successfully broken through to the Dou Zong.

Wang Chen wasn't too surprised by this.

Queen Medusa was able to quickly cultivate to the Peak Dou Huang in a resource-poor place like the Snake People Tribe.

Their innate talent is certainly not to be underestimated.

Now, with the aid of pills from Wang Chen, Advanced Alchemist, breaking through to the Dou Zong is practically a natural progression, posing virtually no difficulty.

It's quite normal to achieve a breakthrough in just five days.

Wang Chen sensed that Queen Medusa had successfully broken through to the Dou Zong, but he did not immediately leave seclusion.

After all, the others aren't like Wang Chen, who has a cheat code and can easily consolidate his cultivation by simply circulating his Dou Qi after breaking through.

After a normal person breaks through a barrier, it takes a certain amount of time to fully stabilize their cultivation level and prevent it from becoming unstable, which could lead to a decline in their strength.

Now that he wouldn't be able to see Queen Medusa and the High Priest after leaving the pass, Wang Chen naturally lost interest in going out.

It would be better to wait two more days until Queen Medusa has fully consolidated her cultivation before emerging from seclusion.

And just like that, two more days passed in the blink of an eye.

Wang Chen finally emerged from the High Priest's secluded cultivation retreat.

"Young Master Wang, the High Priest is available now."

"If Young Master Wang wishes to see the High Priest, I can take you there right now."

Of course, if Young Master Wang has other arrangements, he can simply give me his instructions.

Upon seeing Wang Chen emerge from seclusion, the servant was the first to speak.

It must be said, this servant is indeed very capable.

It was only because Wang Chen mentioned it briefly last time that the other party was able to remember it completely.

Now that they've just come out of the pass, the servant has already brought up what Wang Chen might need.

"Please arrange for me to wash up first, then I'll go see the High Priest and Medusa."

Even with Wang Chen's current strength, there wouldn't be any dust or dirt around.

Even if it exists, it can be cleaned up using Dou Qi.

But the formalities still need to be observed.

Anyway, a quick wash won't take much time.

This also allows one to express respect for Queen Medusa and the High Priest.

Regardless, Queen Medusa's successful breakthrough to the Dou Zong is something to be happy about.

Both sides have basically developed feelings for each other, and Wang Chen doesn't mind paying a little more attention to this.

"OK."

Upon hearing Wang Chen's instructions, the servant immediately led Wang Chen to the washroom.

After a quick wash, Wang Chen tidied up his appearance.

Then he followed the servant toward the High Priest's room.

Meanwhile, in the High Priest's room, Queen Medusa was conversing with the High Priest.

Of course, it was mainly the High Priest who was speaking, Queen Medusa was listening.

Many of these are experiences accumulated by the High Priest over the years as he broke through to the Dou Zong.

For example, some experience in fighting as Dou Zong.

Dou Zong who can control the power of space is completely different from Dou Emperor.

This represents a qualitative change!

This is completely different from Dou Wang breaking through to Dou Emperor.

Many of their fighting styles also differ from those of Dou Emperor).

Although the High Priest initially broke through by force using secret techniques, he later fought a fierce battle against the Dou Zong of the Chu Yun Empire.

This resulted in severe damage to himself, leaving him with little time left to live.

But with so many years of experience, it's no joke.

Even if the experience isn't great, it's still very useful for someone like Medusa who has just broken through to the Dou Zong.

"By the way, Medusa, what are you going to say to Young Master Wang?"

After explaining the various Dou Zong experiences, the High Priest steered the conversation towards Wang Chen.

High Priest, who rarely live more than a few years, have two main concerns.

One question is whether the Snake People Tribe can produce a new Dou Zong to protect Snake People Tribe from invasion and suppression by other forces.

The second is Queen Medusa.

As the caretaker who raised Queen Medusa, the High Priest was still very concerned about Queen Medusa's personal life.

Now that Queen Medusa has successfully broken through to the Dou Zong, her first and most worrying problem has been solved.

However, Queen Medusa's personal life has not yet been fully resolved.

Fortunately, with the talented young man Wang Chen around, the High Priest wasn't too worried.

After these few days of conversation, she also realized very well that Queen Medusa nor Wang Chen were the kind of people who were good at communication.

This can be quite fatal in the process of dating.

"I..."

Queen Medusa blushed, a rare occurrence, upon hearing the High Priest's words.

Even someone as proud as Medusa would find it hard to resist a talented young man like Wang Chen, who had also been of great help to her.

It's just that after so many years of being arrogant, she's not really used to acting like a little girl.

"You seem to have feelings for Young Master Wang, don't you?"

Seeing that Queen Medusa was stammering and didn't say anything,

The High Priest also spoke up to inquire.

After all, she didn't have many years left to live, and before she passed away, she still planned to fulfill her last wish.

Moreover, after these few days of conversation, she also felt that Wang Chen was a good match.

Since Queen Medusa wouldn't speak, she would simply act as the introducer.

Anyway, for an old lady like her who is well-versed in human relationships and worldly wisdom, this kind of thing is nothing.

Queen Medusa pondered for a moment upon hearing the High Priest's question.

She finally blushed and nodded slightly.

"Alright, I'll handle this."

"You should go back and cultivate in seclusion for a while. I'll go find Young Hero Wang."

The High Priest said a few words, then prepared to get up and go find Wang Chen.

Regardless, since she's the one acting as matchmaker this time, she naturally has to act like one.

Queen Medusa naturally obeyed the High Priest's words and went into seclusion to cultivate once more.

After all, he has only just broken through, and now is the perfect time to go into seclusion and cultivate to consolidate his cultivation.

"High Priest."

Just as the High Priest was on his way to Wang Chen's secluded cultivation location, Wang Chen also arrived.

Upon seeing the High Priest, Wang Chen immediately greeted him.

In any case, the High Priest was an old man.

Wang Chen, this time traveler, actually did a pretty good job in respecting the elderly and caring for the young.

As long as it doesn't conflict with him, Wang Chen won't hesitate to say a few kind words.

Not to mention that Wang Chen also wants to woo Queen Medusa, which naturally requires him to show even more respect to the High Priest, his elder.

"Young Master Wang, you've only been gone a few days, and your aura is even more imposing than before."

"I suppose these past few days of training have helped me improve my strength."

Upon hearing Wang Chen's greeting, the High Priest also offered a compliment.

Since kind words are free, the High Priest, an old man well-versed in human relationships, naturally said whatever was nicest to him.

"Not at all. The High Priest is the one with a rosy complexion, still vigorous for his age!"

Wang Chen also offered a compliment.

But as soon as the words left his mouth, Wang Chen wanted to slap himself a few times.

After all, whether from one's own soul perception or from Queen Medusa's explanation.

The High Priest were generally in poor health.

He looks like he could kick the bucket at any moment, and at most only live a few more years.

His statement sounds perfectly reasonable to a normal person.

But for someone like the High Priest, it might sound a bit jarring.

However, the High Priest was not angry.

Instead, he burst into laughter and waved his hand.

"Young Master Wang is too kind. I am very clear about my own condition."

However, I still appreciate Young Master Wang's blessings.

The High Priest, far from being angry, instead spoke with great humor, defusing Wang Chen's inappropriate remark.

"I wonder what business the High Priest has with me?"

"I wonder what business Young Master Wang has with me?"

Wang Chen and the High Priest asked at the same time.

Both sides fell silent.

"I do have something to discuss with Young Master Wang this time."

How about we go to a quiet place first and talk slowly then?"

Being an old man well-versed in social etiquette, the High Priest immediately spoke up to defuse the awkward situation.

"That's fine, that's fine too."

Wang Chen nodded quickly, agreeing to the High Priest's suggestion.

Wang Chen then followed the High Priest to the room where they had previously spoken.

As for the servants, they naturally did not follow.

After all, Wang Chen has already met the High Priest, so there's no point in having servants follow him.

After entering the room, the High Priest first poured Wang Chen a cup of tea, and then began to speak to himself.

"I know my own body very well."

"I suffered a great calamity back then, and I'm already very grateful to have survived until now."

"I had two wishes, so I couldn't leave in peace."

But now that Queen Medusa has successfully broken through to the Dou Zong, one of my wishes has been fulfilled."

"Now only Medusa's personal issues remain."

The High Priest began to speak, then fixed his eyes on Wang Chen.

Such directness caught Wang Chen off guard.

After all, the High Priest had already openly asked him what his thoughts were about Queen Medusa.

Wang Chen naturally couldn't pretend to be confused.

After all, the other party was an elderly person who was about to pass away, so there was naturally no need to have too many concerns.

"This Queen Medusa, I..."

Wang Chen hesitated for a moment, but eventually revealed his thoughts.

After all, his purpose in coming to the Tagor Desert was to obtain the Heavenly Flames Queen Medusa.
