Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 103 Queen Medusa

Within the boundless underground magma, a patch of blue suddenly appeared amidst the crimson expanse.

A giant blue lotus grows rampantly here, its dense roots constantly absorbing the energy of the underground magma. Every breath, the blue lotus grows even stronger and more imperceptible.

If we consider the long passage of time, even after thousands of years, it would not be so easy for a Dou Zong expert to defeat it.

When they looked up and saw a blue flame rising and falling, everyone couldn't help but look on in amazement.

"Master Lin Feng, could this be the legendary..."

Hai Bodong's excited voice came from the side. Among the crowd, he felt it the most. He was originally an ice-attribute warrior, which was severely suppressed in this magma land. The moment the blue flame appeared, his strength was instantly suppressed to 80% of his usual level.

"That's right, it's the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame!"

Lin Feng, standing to the side, was also excited. After more than ten years of studying alchemy, he had finally seen this rare treasure of heaven and earth, the most precious item for alchemists—the Strange Fire!

"Born deep within the earth, it is constantly tempered by the earth's fire. It takes ten years to become a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to achieve the form of a lotus. At the moment of its completion, a cluster of blue flames emerges from the lotus's heart, known as the Azure Lotus Flame. Because it is born from the earth's core, it is also called the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame."

After recounting Yao Chen's records in detail, Lin Feng's eyes gleamed with an undisguised fervor. He took a few deep breaths, his expression gradually becoming serious, and addressed Vice Dean Hu Qian and the numerous elders beside him.

"Gentlemen, please unleash your strongest attacks to subdue this strange fire in one fell swoop. If the battle drags on, the aftershocks may cause disturbances among the Serpent Clan, and even many forces within the Gama Empire may become aware of it!"

Without Lin Feng needing to say anything more, everyone understood.

Who wouldn't want to possess such a rare and wondrous thing as a strange fire, except for someone like Hai Bodong whose attributes are completely incompatible with it? Putting aside its powerful combat strength, even if it were exchanged with an alchemist, the benefits would be immeasurable!

The students from Canaan Academy exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

"A Thousand Layers of Sealing Technique—Suppression!"

Numerous shouts rang out as the elders, led by Hu Qian, formed hand seals, attempting to suppress the strange fire for a moment with a powerful sealing technique.

Lin Feng, on the other hand, was already prepared. The moment the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame weakened, he would instantly sever the roots of the Green Lotus, sealing it and cutting off its connection with the outside world.

Meanwhile, Hai Bodong, who was severely suppressed in this area, had already retreated to a distance at Lin Feng's signal to protect everyone and guard against any possible unexpected situations.

"Buzz"

As the sealing skills of Canaan Academy were gradually completed, the powerful fluctuations caused the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame to tremble restlessly, with bursts of blazing azure flames constantly shooting out from its lotus core.

After the sealing spell was completed, Vice Dean Hu Qian stepped forward first.

"Elder Lin Feng, prepare. Suppress!"

A tower-shaped seal instantly condensed above the numerous figures led by Hu Qian, fiercely suppressing the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. The strange flame was no pushover either, and a powerful aura surged into the sky.

The azure lotus spun rapidly, and countless azure flames crashed fiercely into the tower-shaped seal. Its powerful force was something even a peak Dou Huang would not dare to underestimate.

Unfortunately, they encountered numerous elders at the peak of the Dou Wang realm, along with a Dou Huang peak expert, who also possessed a powerful sealing technique passed down from the academy. The moment the two met, the flames spewed by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame were suppressed.

"Elder Lin Feng, now is the time! Go immediately!"

Vice Dean Hu Qian's loud shout reached Lin Feng's ears. Lin Feng seized the opportunity, and in a flash, he leaped close to the green lotus, avoiding the dense roots. He quickly took out a jade piece, cut off the green lotus seat, cast a sealing barrier, and then put it into his storage ring.

As Lin Feng moved, the countless azure fire lotuses that danced in the sky seemed to have lost their source, trembled for a moment, and then disappeared.

"Hahaha, Elder Lin Feng, congratulations!"

Seeing this, Hu Qian and the others stepped forward to congratulate Lin Feng. Lin Feng, already a sixth-grade alchemist, now had the aid of this rare fire that every alchemist dreams of. Presumably, reaching the seventh-grade alchemist realm wouldn't be too long.

"Gentlemen, let's not rush to offer our congratulations. We must leave this place immediately."

However, before anyone could say anything, Lin Feng quickly interrupted, his expression somewhat solemn.

"Although I managed to capture the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame at an extremely fast speed, the fluctuations from that instantaneous battle reached the level of a Dou Zong, actually tearing a corner of the barrier."

"Master Lin Feng, doesn't that mean...?"

Before Vice Dean Hu Qian and the others could say anything, Hai Bodong, who was in the distance, hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"That's right, if we don't hurry, the figure Elder Hai predicted will appear!"

"In that case, we should retreat quickly to avoid further complications!"

With this in mind, everyone unfurled their battle qi wings and quickly moved forward along their original route. As for the two-headed fire spirit serpent, Lin Feng decided to release it after a moment's consideration.

"Whoosh"

Deep within the underground magma, numerous figures moved swiftly. Flying at full speed, they reached the top of the magma in no time. Upon reaching the upper layer of the magma, they did not linger but continued to ascend.

However, as the group flew rapidly over the desert, a seductive voice brought them to a standstill.

"Gentlemen, why are you in such a hurry? Why don't you come to my snake-people tribe and let me entertain you?"

Looking up, the sight of more than a dozen figures with wings on their backs made Lin Feng and the others stop.

Looking at the leading figures who exuded the aura of peak Dou Huang, Lin Feng's expression gradually turned somewhat grim.

"I never expected that besides Medusa, these ancient snake-people would also emerge."

Meanwhile, the alluring Queen Medusa on the opposite side couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If it weren't for the elders sensing that powerful aura and insisting on summoning many leaders together, her situation would have been quite dire.

"However," Queen Medusa's rosy lips curled slightly beneath her veil, "the current situation is actually in our favor!"

"Is Queen Medusa ahead? I have long admired your name. I am Hu Qian, the Vice Dean of Canaan Academy. We have disturbed the Serpent Clan, but fortunately, no serious consequences have occurred. May we be allowed to leave?"

Seeing this, Vice Dean Hu Qian stepped forward without hesitation, hoping to avoid a battle by using the name of Canaan Academy.

"Oh! Canaan Academy?" Queen Medusa frowned slightly, then smoothed it out. Normally, it wouldn't matter, but when it came to an opportunity that could allow her to evolve, she absolutely couldn't let it go.

Just as Queen Medusa was about to speak, a figure took a few steps forward and spoke slowly.

"Queen Medusa, I am Lin Feng, a sixth-grade alchemist!"
