Chapter 101 Clearing the Clouds and Seeing the Sun
"How dare you lay a hand on Queen Medusa! Die!"
The Black-Robed Fighting Emperor's actions undoubtedly enraged all the snake people present.
In addition, during the negotiation period, the leaders of two of the eight tribes arrived, and in a short time, Xiao Yan and his group were surrounded.
"Kill these invaders! We mustn't let them interfere with Her Majesty's plans!"
A female snake-woman with a pink snake tail gave the order. Her cultivation level was also at the Dou Wang level. She was the captain of Medusa's personal guard, Flower Snake!
"The Enchanting Serpent Clan's Moonlit Beauty has come to protect you!"
"Mobas of the Ink Serpent Clan has come to protect you!"
Two snake-men with fighting spirit wings quickly flew into the temple and joined the siege of Xiao Yan and the others.
"Furukawa, she's extremely weak right now. We'll buy you time. Once we've succeeded, signal to leave immediately!"
In a critical situation, the black-robed Dou Huang faced off against three Dou Wang powerhouses simultaneously. As for Yan Shi and Feng Li, they led six Dou Ling powerhouses in a fierce battle against the endless hordes of snake-men guards, clearing a path for Gu He.
Xiao Yan and his companions also began to face countless powerful snake-men. Led by two Dou Wangs, they forcibly carved out a path to leave the temple.
"Young friend, where is that strange fire now?" Gu He asked Xiao Yan before leaving.
"This—I can't be sure. Queen Medusa actually divided the aura of the strange fire into four, located in the four directions of the temple: east, south, west, and north. I can't tell them apart."
Gu He frowned at Xiao Yan's answer, but time was of the essence, and he didn't have time to think too much, so he chose the northern route.
"Brothers, let's fight our way out of here. Mi can't possibly die at the hands of these snake people."
The two-faced fighting king, along with five fighting spirits, fought fiercely outside the temple while forcibly breaking through a path in preparation for their escape.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan had already taken advantage of the lull in his fight with several snake-men to slip away from everyone's sight.
"Hey, where's that little guy who joined our team last? I can't find him!" He Rang fought and retreated, only to find that Xiao Yan had already disappeared.
"I don't know, there are too many snake people here, he must have been scattered by the other side." The other fighting spirits shook their heads. At this moment, they were too busy taking care of themselves to care about the other side.
"Sigh, we can only pray that the kid is lucky and survives."
Xiao Yan pretended to fight alongside a Dou Ling and several Da Dou Shi, and fought his way to the eastern part of the temple. After confirming that there were no Gu He's people around, he...
He immediately unleashed his flying combat skills, soaring into the sky and escaping the center of the battlefield.
Ignoring the grumbling snake-men below, after dodging their spears and poisoned blades, he flew towards the eastern part of the temple.
In fact, Xiao Yan couldn't distinguish where the real strange fire was either, nor could he clearly identify it with his own Azure Lotus Dou Qi.
However, when she was closer to the east, the puppy inside her became unusually excited, while in other directions, the puppy did not react at all.
This proves one thing: the real strange fire is in the east!
All the Dou Wangs in the Medusa Temple went to restrain the Black-Robed Dou Huang, because their biggest worry was that the other party would personally go and cause trouble for Medusa.
A Dou Huang can hold his own against five Dou Wangs at the same time, but if the opponents cooperate well, unless they have a super killing move, even a Dou Huang will find it difficult to kill them easily.
However, since their mission was not to kill the snake-man leader, they fought and retreated along the way to buy time for Guhe.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan took advantage of their delaying of the Snake-People's high-level combat power to head towards the location of the Strange Flame.
Xiao Yan flew eastward for three minutes and arrived at the easternmost part of the city, where a sacrificial temple stood.
However, the area around the temple was unusually quiet, with no guards in sight.
However, Xiao Yan quickly understood the meaning behind it: the real is fake, and the fake is real; the other party was playing the empty city stratagem!
Queen Medusa was exceptionally wise, and she naturally understood that a powerful individual capable of breaking through layers of guards would not be stopped by her own personal guards.
In that case, it would be better to place manpower in other, more populated areas.
If the other side chooses the wrong location, and only after dealing with those guards and rushing in do they find there is no strange fire, then who knows how much time will have been wasted.
However, she did not expect that Xiao Yan possessed the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, and that the different flames would resonate with each other, causing Xiao Yan to see through her scheme.
Xiao Yan flew over the temple and entered it.
There were indeed no guards inside, which seemed somewhat out of place with the scene of a fierce battle outside.
"I can feel it! The strange fire is getting closer and closer!"
The Myriad Beast Spirit Fire within Xiao Yan's body grew increasingly excited, signifying that he was getting closer and closer to the Strange Flame.
Continuing to fly forward, Xiao Yan suddenly saw a large, cold lake surrounding a small island in the center.
Xiao Yan accelerated again, wanting to fly directly over the cold lake.
However, just as he reached the airspace above the lake, he suddenly felt a terrifying gravity pulling him down from below!
Xiao Yan had already flown more than ten meters away when he lost his balance and fell into the lake.
As he fell, Xiao Yan immediately used the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire to protect himself, enveloping himself in it.
The strange fire collided with the water in the lake, producing a series of sizzling sounds.
"Good heavens, this isn't a lake, it's a complete poisonous swamp!"
The lake water surrounding the island was completely corrosive and highly toxic!
Fortunately, he had the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire protecting him; otherwise, if he had been suddenly struck by this strange restriction and fallen into the lake, he would probably have died on the spot.
"If we can't fly across, we'll wade across!"
[Intermediate Xuan-level Burst Step]!
Xiao Yan unleashed his Dou Qi and strode towards the lake.
Before he could jump a few steps, Xiao Yan sensed the terrifying giant pythons hidden beneath the lake.
Upon seeing someone crossing, the giant pythons immediately attacked Xiao Yan, intending to swallow him whole.
"Hmph, I'm determined to have this strange fire today, and no one can stop me!"
Xiao Yan unleashed the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, instantly evaporating a large portion of the poisonous pool. The giant python that had attacked him was also burned to ashes by the blood-red flames in an instant!
Although the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire ranks at the bottom of the Strange Fire List, it is still a genuine Strange Fire. In addition, it is formed from the essence and bloodline of magical beasts, making it even more effective against them.
After one giant python was burned to ashes, the rest of the giant pythons hiding at the bottom of the lake scattered and fled, not daring to approach.
Xiao Yan took more than a dozen steps, crossing the cold lake and arriving at the small island.
"The aura of the strange fire is growing stronger!"
Xiao Yan was extremely excited. As soon as he arrived on the island, he felt another terrifying temperature, which was obviously the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame!
He immediately concealed the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire and his own aura to avoid being discovered by Queen Medusa.
The island was covered with all sorts of beautiful flowers, plants, and trees, all of which were deadly poisons and served as the last line of defense set up by Queen Medusa.
Xiao Yan slowly crept forward, following the guidance of the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, traversing the bamboo forest and gradually arriving at the location of the strange fire.
"arrive!"
Xiao Yan sensed the strange fire was very close, and at a certain corner in the bamboo forest, after passing through the bamboo that provided cover, there was a wide open space a hundred meters away.
Looking out over the vast expanse, in the center of that open space, stood the strange fire that Xiao Yan had been longing for, and Medusa, the queen of the snake-people!
