Yao Xiaotian
Without those fortuitous opportunities or the astonishing energy contained in the Nine Netherworld Cold Spring, the chances of the Medicine Spirit Sacred Body breaking through to become Dou Sheng would be truly slim.
Xiao Yan shook his head slightly and dived back into the bottom of the Nine Netherworld Cold Spring.
When Xiao Yan reappeared at the bottom of the spring, besides the locked-up Yao Ming, there was also Qing Lin's figure.
"Qing Lin, have you finished your cultivation?" Xiao Yan asked.
Qing Lin stepped forward happily and said, "Young Master, I am not Heaven Swallowing Python, and therefore cannot inherit the Heaven Swallowing Python's legacy like the Medusa sisters."
"However, after being baptized by the Heaven Swallowing Python's energy, the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils seems to have undergone some changes. It can now control any serpentine magical beast that is not of an ancient, top-tier bloodline."
As she spoke, Qing Lin blinked, and a faint seven-colored light appeared in her originally emerald green eyes.
"Evolved?!" Xiao Yan was surprised. Like him, Qing Lin had not entered the Heaven Swallowing Python Nest in the simulation, but he did not expect to receive such a benefit.
It seems that neither naturally occurring, naturally formed Heavenly Flames are absolutely unchanging.
Even the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, with its extraordinary effects, has the potential to evolve and be enhanced, as long as the method is found.
"In other words, the Medusa sisters are still receiving the inheritance of the Heaven Swallowing Python and cannot appear for the time being. However, their current power is definitely sufficient." Xiao Yan raised his hand and grasped a piece of iron chain. "Yao Ming, I will free you now."
The moment Xiao Yan grasped the chains, despite the change in temperature of the Nine Netherworld Cold Spring, the chains still emitted a hissing white mist, containing a large amount of icy power.
Sensing the resistance of the chilling power within the chains, Xiao Yan suddenly exerted force with his palm, unleashing even greater power after breaking through to the Dou Sheng, causing the chains to creak and groan.
How could this be?! Yao Ming was shocked. The chains, tempered by the Nine Netherworld Cold Spring, were actually crushed flat by his bare hands!
Xiao Yan didn't apply any force to the chains; the Yellow Springs Yin Stone behind them was the key.
Multiple Heavenly Flames merged together, forming a dazzling flame that spread along the chains and crashed rapidly into the mountainside at the end of the chains.
In an instant, Xiao Yan felt a rather hard, round object.
At that moment, the Proto-Emperor Flame immediately charged towards the hard sphere.
Under the impact of the Proto-Emperor Flame, a strange fluctuation emanated from the sphere, and then the huge iron chain snapped.
"You succeeded just like that?" Yao Ming was greatly surprised, his gaze towards Xiao Yan filled with wild joy.
While Xiao Yan was breaking the seal for Yao Ming, a magnificent palace in the Nether Serpent Earth Vein was bustling with activity, a stark contrast to the tranquil Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs.
The leaders of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, a subordinate tribe, gathered here, their laughter echoing within the main hall.
On the throne in the main hall sat a man dressed in black. He was quite handsome, but his brows revealed an undisguised coldness. His eyes, which were slightly open and closed, flashed with a sharp light, like a venomous snake that could kill in an instant, making people's hearts tremble.
The man was none other than Yao Xiaotian of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan.
Having seized the position of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan and broken through to become Dou Sheng- level powerhouse, his moment to enjoy life had finally arrived.
Looking at the alluring woman chosen by the subordinate leader, Yao Xiaotian's gaze couldn't help but become somewhat burning.
Just then, Yao Xiaotian frowned, and his eyes, which had just become burning hot, suddenly turned cold.
The seal has been broken?
"Chieftain, what's wrong?"
Below Yao Xiaotian, an old man with a crimson venomous snake coiled on his shoulder frowned slightly and said.
"The seal that suppressed the Yao Ming has suddenly broken!"
The man in black suddenly stood up, his face cold and sinister. A soft voice reached the old man's ears.
"What? How is that possible!" Upon hearing this, the old man's expression changed drastically. He quickly composed himself, glanced discreetly at the elders and tribal leaders in the hall, and then whispered, "Go quickly. If that Yao Ming escapes, we're doomed. I'll hold things here and come back to support you as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, now that I've become Dou Sheng Expert, I will never let him have a chance to turn the tables." Yao Xiaotian smiled coldly and then disappeared from the throne.
Seeing Yao Xiaotian disappear, the old man stood up and smiled reassuringly to everyone in the hall, "An elder has something to report, so the clan leader will go and receive him first. The newly selected ladies-in-waiting will all be sent to the clan leader's harem."
While Yao Xiaotian was taking action, Xiao Yan had already completely broken Yao Ming's seal.
"You've just escaped, and your Dou Qi is almost completely depleted. You're no match for Yao Xiaotian and the Great Elder of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan right now." Xiao Yan said in Yao Ming, looking at Yao Ming, who couldn't even stand up.
The extremely weak Yao Ming didn't care much about this; instead, he laughed excitedly, "Haha, I never thought I, Yao Ming, would actually be able to endure until this day of liberation!"
"Young Master Xiao Yan Yao Ming will never forget your life-saving grace. As long as I can take my revenge, I will do everything in my power, even if it means using the entire power of the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, to help you in the future!" Yao Ming stared intently at Xiao Yan and said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Qing Lin chuckled. With the control of the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils Yao Ming, even if Yaoming didn't want to repay the favor, he couldn't hide it from her eyes.
"Let's take some pills to quickly restore our Dou Qi. Yao Xiaotian should be arriving soon." Xiao Yan flicked his finger, and a pill flew into Yao Ming's mouth.
The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth. Just as Yao Ming was about to speak, an immense energy, even for Two-Star Dou Saint, immediately spread out.
Yao Ming dared not be careless and immediately began to diligently consume and absorb the energy.
Having experience with simulations, Xiao Yan had already prepared pills to help Yao Ming recover his Dou Qi before he came here.
Thanks to the Life Spirit Flame, Xiao Yan's ability to accelerate the ripening of medicinal herbs was greatly enhanced.
With excellent materials and Xiao Flame God alchemy skills, even the simple effect of restoring Dou Qi can take effect in a short time, even for Dou Sheng.
Not long after Yao Ming broke free, a terrifying aura suddenly appeared above the Nine Netherworld Cold Spring.
"They've appeared!" Xiao Yan's dark eyes blinked, and he picked up Yao Ming and Qing Lin, instantly leaving the bottom of the Nine Netherworld Cold Spring.
Looking at Xiao Yan, Qing Lin, and the skeletal-like Yao Ming, a sinister smile appeared on Yao Xiaotian's face.
"You little bastard, how dare you ruin my grand plan! No matter who you are, today I will make you die in the Yellow Springs! As for the beauty beside you, I will take her in on your behalf, making her one of my many concubines today. This is the price you must pay for your recklessness!"
