Snatching Food from a Snake's Mouth
"*Soul Impact!!!*"
This was Xiao Yan's ultimate trump card!
Magical Beast bodies were strong, but their souls were weak! The soul power of a Tier 6 Magical Beast was far inferior to that of a Tier 6 Alchemist, and Xiao Yan's soul power had already reached Tier 5!
A strange soul force bombarded the depths of Medusa's soul. Xiao Yan's soul attack was launched with all his might. The collision of Soul Impacts made Xiao Yan himself dizzy, as if this collision had shattered his own soul.
Hiss hiss hiss!!! Medusa Queen let out an angry roar. How could she have imagined that this freak, Xiao Yan, not only possessed a Strange Flame, but also a lost Soul Skill!
Even if Soul Impact was just the most basic Soul Skill, only Yellow Rank High-Level, it could be said to be the most trash Soul Skill in the Soul Palace, the most basic Soul Skill.
But the best thing about Soul Impact was that the strength of the impact was not related to the skill's proficiency, but simply a contest of both sides' soul strength.
Medusa now felt as if her soul had been knocked out of her body by Xiao Yan, and she could barely hold onto her soul!
Medusa gritted her teeth fiercely, Dou Qi circulating within her body, giving her a jolt, her soul returning to her body, instantly regaining consciousness. But Xiao Yan's Soul Impact caused the suppressed Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame's source fire to erupt once again.
Xiao Yan had aimed for this moment. Medusa's evolution required the use of Strange Flame to temper her bloodline, burning her body, flesh, bones, and even her soul had to be burned by the Strange Flame to complete the evolution.
Hiss hiss! The purple Giant Python swung its tail away fiercely, with a heavy thump. Xiao Yan hurriedly used the Mystic Heavy Ruler to block. A terrifying force came from the Mystic Heavy Ruler.
Xiao Yan was like a tennis ball, slammed into the ground by the tail.
Medusa Queen had already had many bones and flesh burned by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and still needed to suppress the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame within her body, but Medusa was still at the peak Dou Huang strength. A blow from her in her heavily injured state was not something Xiao Yan could withstand.
With a crash, Xiao Yan pushed away the rubble, blood streaming down his forehead.
"If I hadn't been burned by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, that blow should have killed me directly," Xiao Yan grinned, baring his teeth.
Seeing Xiao Yan, who hadn't been killed by her tail, Medusa's snake pupils revealed a hint of surprise. Even though she was seriously injured, that blow could definitely kill any Da Dou Shi!
"*Soul Impact!!!*"
Xiao Yan roared, with a thump, soul force burst out of his body, the two souls colliding fiercely.
Pfft! Xiao Yan spat out a mouthful of blood. Two consecutive Soul Impacts were too much for even Xiao Yan to handle, let alone Medusa! Xiao Yan felt his soul about to dissipate.
"She can still suppress it! This Medusa Queen is too fierce!" Taking a closer look, Medusa let out a painful cry, but the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame within her body was still suppressed, not erupting, not completely burning Medusa to ashes.
Medusa herself was of the Yin-Cold attribute. The only way for Xiao Yan to seize the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame was to make Medusa play with fire and burn herself.
The purple Giant Python Medusa struggled to open her snake pupils. As Xiao Yan had said, she was extremely regretful. At that time, she had indeed noticed someone infiltrating the palace.
But because Xiao Yan was only at the Da Dou Shi strength, Medusa was careless. In addition, Gu He's disturbance and the choice to devour the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame left Medusa with no time to care about Xiao Yan.
She hadn't expected that this small Da Dou Shi would cause so much trouble.
Medusa Queen narrowed her eyes, as if she had made a decision.
Rumble! Thunder suddenly roared in the sky. The energy of heaven and earth suddenly became turbulent.
Seeing this, Gu He outside also quickly raised his head, looking towards the sky, and his expression changed slightly. He saw that the dark night sky had actually attracted a mass of dark clouds, slowly enveloping the sky.
"This is a phenomenon of heaven and earth?!!!"
As an Alchemist, Gu He naturally knew what was happening.
A Tier 6 Pill would attract changes in heaven and earth.
And a Tier 7 High-Level Pill would even attract Pill Lightning!! Without a doubt, Medusa intended to fight to the death, to completely evolve her bloodline! Boom! From within the dark clouds, suddenly came the sound of roaring thunder, silver lightning, scurrying around wildly within, like silver long snakes.
Xiao Yan looked up, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Want to attract Heavenly Lightning to completely evolve, and then blast me to death along with you?"
A Fourth Grade Pill entered his stomach, and the injuries on Xiao Yan's body visibly recovered. The fused Strange Flame surged out of Xiao Yan's body desperately, turning into a protective shield to protect Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan knew that this was the end! If Medusa attracted Heavenly Lightning and struck him to death, then he would die in vain. If Xiao Yan's Soul Impact interrupted Medusa's evolution, then Medusa would be burned to death by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and he would pick up a Strange Flame for nothing! In any case, this time would be the moment of truth!
With a loud rumble, the world lit up for a moment, and a huge silver thunderbolt shot down from the clouds, finally smashing into the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.
Boom!!! The lightning exploded, and countless lightning bolts drilled into the purple Giant Python's body. The body, which had already been burned to only two or three zhang, quickly turned charred, and even turned into ashes.
Although Medusa was the main target of the Heavenly Lightning, Xiao Yan was also implicated, and a portion of the Heavenly Lightning bombarded Xiao Yan.
"Void Swallowing Flame! Devour the Heavenly Lightning!"
Whoosh whoosh! The fused Strange Flame emerged, turning into a black hole vortex, frantically devouring the Heavenly Lightning to help Xiao Yan resist.
And what Xiao Yan was waiting for was this opportunity. He bit the tip of his tongue fiercely, and the bloody taste and stinging pain jolted his spirit.
"Soul! Impact!!"
Pfft! This strike from Xiao Yan directly made his eyes bleed, and his entire brain spun.
Hiss hiss hiss! A snake's mournful cry reached Xiao Yan's ears.
Bang! Almost at the same time, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame erupted, and the terrifying azure flame and the lightning collided with each other, creating an extremely violent explosion.
The impact force was terrifying. The huge impact force generated by the collision of Heavenly Lightning and Strange Flame shattered the entire bedchamber. All the furniture and decorations in the bedchamber were turned into ashes.
"What terrifying energy!" This terrifying energy impact turned into a fire shroud that enveloped the entire bedchamber, making even Gu He, a Dou Wang, dare not approach.
But what Gu He didn't know was that within this fire shroud, a figure was running towards the origin of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.
Xiao Yan took out a bottle of Fourth Grade Pill and poured it into his mouth as if it were free. These were all prepared in advance by Xiao Yan before coming. There were pills to restore Dou Qi and replenish Soul power, as well as pills for healing.
"Too terrifying. If Medusa Queen hadn't swallowed the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and suppressed most of its power, I would have been burned to death." Xiao Yan's body was severely burned, and there wasn't a single good piece of skin on his body. His head was buzzing, and he was walking crookedly.
If the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Flame hadn't tempered Xiao Yan's body and skin, he would probably have turned into ashes like Medusa Queen.
Xiao Yan patted his head. He wanted to use Soul perception to find the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, but he found that he had used Soul Impact too many times, and his Soul was a little scattered.
"Mao Wu! Help me find the origin fire seed!"
...*The void twisted, and Mao Wu jumped out of the void, leaping onto Xiao Yan's shoulder.
"Hmm? Wait, what are you holding in your mouth?!"
