Medusa... Queen!

After a long while, the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake was finally beaten into submission.

Its two once-majestic snake heads now drooped listlessly, seemingly begging Lei Luo to spare it.

Grabbing its tail, Lei Luo dragged it to the edge of the magma.

"Lead the way. Find this." As he spoke, Lei Luo revealed the Yin-Yang Twin Flames.

As a Tier 4 Magical Beast, the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake possessed considerable intelligence. It quickly understood Lei Luo's meaning and looked at him ingratiatingly.

Seeing this, Lei Luo kicked the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake and had it lead the way.

After getting kicked, the fellow was not only unangered, but even eagerly led the way like a loyal lackey.

Following it into the magma pool, terrifying heat waves immediately surged in from all directions.

There was even a great deal of fire poison mixed within them.

Fortunately, Lei Luo had Heavenly Flames protecting his body, so he was not harmed by them. His Battle Qi reserves were also quite abundant.

He followed the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake swiftly through the magma, yet there was no sign of the Heavenly Flame for a long time.

After who knew how long he had traveled beneath the magma, a bewitching azure light turned the entire crimson world blue!

Ahead, a massive azure lotus bloomed within the magma.

Its countless roots crisscrossed throughout the magma pool, creating an exceptionally breathtaking sight!

While Lei Luo was still stunned, the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake had already fled into the distance, seemingly terrified of even the lotus itself.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Lei Luo swiftly swam toward the azure lotus above.

Twenty meters, ten meters...

The closer he got, the more terrifying the temperature became. If not for the Heavenly Flames protecting him, even approaching this azure lotus would have been a problem for Lei Luo.

But this also proved one thing: the Green Lotus Core Flame was still here!

Lei Luo swiftly reached the lotus, breathing heavily. Even his fingers could not help trembling slightly.

With the Green Lotus Core Flame, both Lei Luo's cultivation and combat power would rise to a new level. How could he not be excited?

Suppressing his wild joy, Lei Luo finally arrived above the enormous lotus.

At the center of the lotus was a lotus platform of moderate size, with plump azure lotus seeds in its middle.

And atop that lotus platform, an azure flame lotus was slowly blooming!

Amid the terrifying heat that could burn the heavens and boil the seas, Lei Luo's emotions finally surged out of control.

The Green Lotus Core Flame truly deserved to be ranked nineteenth among the Heavenly Flames. Its terrifying heat was even more dreadful than when he had obtained the Yin-Yang Twin Flames.

Just as Lei Luo took out a Blood Lotus Pill and was about to swallow it to collect the Green Lotus Core Flame, something unexpected happened.

The Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake hiding in the distance suddenly curled up, its body trembling nonstop as though it had seen something terrifying.

This immediately put Lei Luo on guard. He hurriedly spread out his soul power and quickly noticed something that did not fit with the surrounding environment.

In the distance, a cold, chilling energy was approaching.

It was moving quickly. In less than five minutes, it would run into Lei Luo!

And Lei Luo naturally knew what it was.

There was no need to think about it. Queen Medusa had definitely arrived!

Lei Luo frowned at once, inwardly crying that things were bad.

If Queen Medusa found him, even with a hundred mouths, he would be dead today.

Leaving aside his attempt to claim the Green Lotus Core Flame, his identity as a human alone was enough reason for Queen Medusa to kill him a hundred times over.

Scanning his surroundings, Lei Luo swiftly concealed his aura and swam toward where the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake was hiding.

Seeing Lei Luo swimming toward it, the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's four eyes widened as though it were screaming, "Don't come over here!"

Soon, Lei Luo hid together with it beneath the Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's terrified gaze.

Seeing the fellow's expression, Lei Luo rubbed the tip of his nose and said, "Can't be helped. I'm scared."

The Twin-Headed Fire Spirit Snake shoved Lei Luo, who was fighting it for space, with one of its heads and let out a faint whimper.

"You're scared? I'm fucking scared too!"

Lei Luo had barely reached the hiding spot when the main character arrived!

The man and beast tacitly kept silent, carefully concealing themselves.

Watching Queen Medusa's human upper body and snake tail in the distance, Lei Luo used the Heavenly Flames to hide his aura and did not even dare breathe too loudly.

From afar, Lei Luo also saw Queen Medusa's true appearance clearly.

Her graceful, curvaceous body was clad in a regal purple brocade robe.

Beneath the robe, her figure was full and exquisite, like a ripe peach.

The faint allure radiating from her entire body made the queen seem especially seductive.

Her dark hair cascaded casually from her fragrant shoulders, falling to her slender willow waist.

A section of purple snake tail emerged from beneath her brocade robe, swaying slightly with a wild, enchanting charm that made one's nose itch just looking at it.

Lei Luo even felt a flame slowly rising in his lower abdomen. Forcing down the restlessness in his heart, he could not help muttering, "What a temptress!"

But complaints aside, Lei Luo did not dare reveal himself.

Now that he had run into Queen Medusa, he could only curse his bad luck inwardly.

The idea of snatching the Heavenly Flame was no longer possible, unless they could defeat Medusa. Clearly, that was nothing more than a fool's dream.

Taking out a large handful of Qi Recovery Pills and swallowing them, Lei Luo began refining their medicinal power.

After all, what he needed to face now was a prolonged battle.

Ahead, Queen Medusa slowly swam toward the lotus floating in the magma, her seductive purple snake tail swaying behind her.

When she reached the edge of the azure lotus, her movements seemed to pause.

She seemed to be hesitating.

But her hesitation did not last long before she swam toward the azure lotus again.

Because the azure lotus was too enormous, Lei Luo lost sight of Queen Medusa and could only wait silently.

But this wait was far too agonizing, torturous for him.

After quite some time, the azure lotus floating in midair finally stirred.

An utterly terrifying heat suddenly erupted!

At the same time, a dreadful aura capable of destroying heaven and earth erupted within the magma pool.

The terrifying might threw the entire magma pool into chaos, even causing the magma to flow much faster.

The two energies continued erupting, and Lei Luo could already hear wave after wave of shrill screams.

They undoubtedly belonged to Medusa.

The Snake-People Tribe had no Alchemists, nor did they know how to refine medicine, so Medusa had no Blood Lotus Pill to protect her body.

She was therefore using her physical body alone to withstand the terrifying heat of the Green Lotus Core Flame.

Listening to the screams echoing by his ears, Lei Luo could not help feeling some admiration for this woman.

Suddenly, a sharp screech rang out, and a gigantic purple python appeared out of nowhere!

Clearly, Queen Medusa's humanoid form was not enough to forcibly collect the Green Lotus Core Flame, so she had directly transformed into her true form!
