Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Looking at Queen Medusa in front of him, Gu He thought for a moment, his storage ring flashed, and then he raised his hand.

Two jade bottles floated above his palm. The bottles were crystal clear and had a faint halo around them.

Inside one of the jade bottles, several crimson pills, radiating powerful battle qi fluctuations, lay quietly—peak-grade fifth-level pills, Battle Spirit Pills.

In another jade bottle, a pill glowing with rosy light slowly rotated, surrounded by wisps of life energy.

A sixth-grade elixir, the Transformation Pill.

Upon seeing these pills, especially the Dou Ling Pill, the Dou Wang experts standing behind Gu He paused, their auras becoming heavy, their eyes burning with intensity.

The fact that these powerful Dou Wang experts, who had built up considerable influence in the Jia Ma Empire, underwent such a transformation demonstrates the immense importance of the Dou Ling Pill to them.

However, remembering the condition offered by Dan Wang Gu He earlier, which was just one Dou Ling Pill, he suppressed his greed.

Don't worry, it will come later.

"Your Majesty."

On the other side, ignoring the thoughts of the Dou Wang powerhouse behind him, Gu He looked at the alluring and cold figure on the city wall and said softly.

"These are Battle Spirit Pills, which can enhance the strength of a first-star Battle King. The other one is a Transformation Pill, which can transform a magical beast into human form. As long as you hand over the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, these pills are yours."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Yun, who was wearing a black robe behind him, frowned slightly.

As the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, she accompanied Gu He on this trip because the latter was an honored disciple of her sect, but she also felt that the conditions Gu He offered were somewhat inappropriate.

Giving these pills to the snake-people will undoubtedly enhance their overall strength. Could this lead to negative consequences?

However, Guhe was determined to win this time, so she couldn't offer too much advice and could only stand silently to the side.

On the city wall, Queen Medusa condensed her fighting spirit into a throne and leaned lazily against the armrest.

A bright red dress accentuated her flawless curves.

The hem of her skirt was embroidered with golden snake patterns, which rose and fell gently with her breath.

Her beauty was breathtaking; her skin was as white as snow, yet her eyes and brows exuded an innate aloofness and majesty.

A hint of coldness flickered in those narrow eyes.

She lowered her eyes, her gaze sweeping over the pills in Gu He's palm, a mocking smile curving her lips.

You dare to exchange mere fifth-grade Battle Spirit Pills and sixth-grade Transformation Pills for a strange fire?

That's wishful thinking.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is a renowned existence on the list of extraordinary flames of heaven and earth. It possesses boundless power and is a coveted treasure for alchemists, with a value far exceeding that of any ordinary elixir.

Let alone these two fifth- or sixth-grade pills, even a seventh-grade Dou Zong pill might not be able to compare with them.

Guhe's actions clearly showed that he thought the Snake People were isolated in the desert and had limited knowledge, and he wanted to use this to humiliate her and the entire Snake People.

Queen Medusa's fingertips lightly brushed against the armrest, her nails gleaming faintly.

The fighting spirit around him surged quietly, and the temperature in the area seemed to drop a few degrees.

Anger surged within her, but she had to suppress it.

The snake people are different now.

Not long ago, Lin Yao appeared in the Tagor Desert and crushed all the strongmen of the Snake People with his absolute strength, becoming the Snake People's nominal "Supreme Emperor".

The decisions of the entire snake-people race were no longer solely determined by her.

She didn't know Lin Yao's attitude towards human powerhouses, nor did she know if her rash attack on Gu He, Yun Yun, and the others would displease Lin Yao.

After all, Lin Yao is also human, and his strength is unfathomable.

Even she, a powerful nine-star Dou Huang at the peak, was like an ant in front of Lin Yao, utterly powerless to resist.

Just as Queen Medusa hesitated and tensions were rising between the two sides, a calm voice suddenly rang in her mind.

"Your Majesty, take them down."

It was Lin Yao's voice transmission!

Queen Medusa felt a sudden sense of relief, as if a huge weight had finally been lifted from her heart.

She exhaled inwardly, the hesitation in her eyes vanishing instantly, replaced by a chilling killing intent.

She had long disliked Gu He, especially his self-righteous attitude, which fueled her anger.

Previously, she dared not act rashly because of Lin Yao's attitude, but now that Lin Yao has spoken, she naturally has no more concerns.

"After you finished being Gu He, you took these pills and thought you could exchange them for a different kind of fire? Are you trying to humiliate me? Then don't blame me for being impolite. Even the Dou Huang powerhouse behind you can't protect you."

Queen Medusa let out a sharp cry, her voice like shattering ice, carrying a chilling aura.

Before she finished speaking, her figure vanished from the throne like a ghost, and a terrifying aura of battle energy erupted from her body.

He displayed his peak Nine-Star Dou Huang strength without reservation.

The oppressive force swept through the area like a tsunami, causing Gu He, Yun Yun, and the others to change their expressions drastically.

"not good!"

Gu He was shocked. He never expected that Queen Medusa would actually dare to attack them.

He quickly put away the jade bottle in his hand, his fighting spirit circulated wildly within his body, and a ball of cyan flame condensed in his palm, which was the beast fire that made him famous.

Yun Yun's expression was also solemn, and she drew her long sword, its light sharp and cold.

She knew that the sword was surrounded by Douhuang-level Dou Qi.

It seems this matter will not end well.

"Let's do it!"

Gu He let out a low shout and took the lead in attacking Queen Medusa, followed by a large number of Dou Wang powerhouses behind him.

A fierce fighting spirit roams freely.

Queen Medusa's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

She had suffered a lot of humiliation at Lin Yao's hands, being severely suppressed but having nowhere to vent her anger.

Now, this long-suppressed resentment finally has an outlet.

She didn't simply make a move like in the original story.

After all, in the original story, she also had to focus on subduing the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, so she couldn't give it her all.

But things are different now.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame had already fallen into Lin Yao's hands, and she was now unable to use the power of the strange flame to transform herself, so she could naturally act without any worries.

Queen Medusa waved her hand, and a crimson beam of battle energy tore through the air, sweeping towards Gu He and the others.

The battle aura contained terrifyingly high temperatures, and wherever it passed, the air was scorched and distorted.

Her movements were as fast as lightning, each strike aimed directly at vital points, ruthless and merciless.

"Pfft!"

One of the Dou Wang experts was unable to dodge in time and was struck by the Dou Qi streak. His body was instantly severely injured, and he didn't even have time to scream before he fell unconscious.

Guhe was greatly shocked, never expecting that Queen Medusa's strength was so terrifying.

This was the first time he had witnessed the strength of a peak Douhuang, and now he finally understood the true value of this realm.

The peak of Dou Huang is only one step away from Dou Zong. This level of strength is absolutely top-tier in the Jia Ma Empire.

He tried his best to resist, but was still forced back by Queen Medusa's fighting spirit, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Yun Yun's situation wasn't much better. Although she was also a Dou Huang powerhouse, she was still quite far behind Queen Medusa.

Her swordsmanship was exquisite, yet she was never able to break through Queen Medusa's defenses.

Instead, he was forced to retreat by Queen Medusa's attacks and had several wounds on his body.

"Bang!"

Queen Medusa kicked out, striking one of the wind-attribute Dou Wang powerhouses squarely in the chest.

The powerful Dou Wang was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into the wall, spitting out blood, his fate unknown.

The entire battle did not last long. Under Queen Medusa's full-force attack, Guhe, Yunyun, and the others had no power to resist.

In just a moment, Guhe was struck on the shoulder by Queen Medusa, his fighting spirit dissipated, and he collapsed to the ground.

Yun Yun was also entangled by battle qi and unable to move. The long sword in her hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The remaining Dou Wang powerhouses were either critically injured and on the verge of death or had fallen unconscious and were captured in an instant.

In other words, Queen Medusa doesn't want to kill them for the time being, otherwise none of them would survive.

At this moment, Queen Medusa slowly withdrew her fighting spirit, looking down at Gu He and Yun Yun who were lying on the ground, without any pity in her eyes.

She walked up to Gu He, reached out and searched his storage ring, taking out all the Spirit-Boosting Pills, Transformation Pills, and other pills.

The jade bottle made a crisp clinking sound in her hand.

Upon receiving these pills, Queen Medusa instinctively glanced towards a corner to the side.

There, Lin Yao stood calmly watching the scene unfold.

Noticing Queen Medusa's gaze, Lin Yao looked up, glanced at the pills in her hand, and then gently shook his head, clearly showing no interest in these things.

Seeing this, Queen Medusa understood and, without further ado, put the pill into her storage ring.

The snake-people race is large, and many members of the race need elixirs to enhance their strength.

Although these pills didn't catch Lin Yao's eye, they were a considerable fortune for the snake-people.

She walked up to Lin Yao and said respectfully, "Great Elder, the person has been captured."

Even if she had many thoughts in her mind, she had to keep them to herself.

Lin Yao raised his eyes, his gaze falling on the bound Gu He and Yun Yun, and then seeing Queen Medusa's obedient appearance, he understood.

In his view, the reason why Queen Medusa was so obedient in attacking Guhe and Yunyun was because of this.

On the one hand, it seemed to be venting some of her resentment, and on the other hand, it was also to cause him some trouble.

At the same time, he would gamble on the fate of the snake people and see just how much power Lin Yao really possessed.

After all, attacking human Dou Huang powerhouses like Gu He and Yun Yun would definitely arouse the fear of the surrounding human empires.

It might even provoke retaliation from the Gama Empire.

Once the Gama Empire unites with surrounding empires to put pressure on the Serpent People, their situation will become extremely difficult.

But Lin Yao didn't care about any of that. His gaze drifted into the distance, a meaningful smile playing on his lips, and he slowly said:

"You think taking them down is the end of it? The Gama Empire still has a Dou Zong powerhouse coming for us soon."

"A Dou Zong level expert?"

Queen Medusa's expression changed, her eyes filled with shock.

"How could the Jia Ma Empire have a Dou Zong level expert?"

In her understanding, the strongest in the Jia Ma Empire was only at the Dou Huang level, and there was no way that there could be a Dou Zong level expert.

A Dou Zong level expert is the absolute ceiling in the area. Once they appear, unless all the Dou Huang level experts of the Snake-People race join forces, they cannot contend with them.

"Yunshan".

Lin Yao spoke calmly.

"The former sect leader of Yunlan Sect has now broken through to the Dou Zong realm."

Queen Medusa was shocked. She never expected that the Yunlan Sect would hide a Dou Zong powerhouse.

If that's the case, then things are in trouble.

She originally thought that the Jia Ma Empire would learn that the Dou Huang of the Yunlan Sect was trapped.

They will either take advantage of Yunlan Sect's misfortune or unite with surrounding empires to put pressure on the Snake-People to reclaim Guhe, Yunyun, and others.

But if Yunshan has already broken through to the Dou Zong level, then everything will be different.

The intimidating power of a Dou Zong expert far surpasses that of a Dou Huang.

Once Yunshan learns that his apprentices Yunyun and Guhe have been captured by the Snake-People, he will definitely come to the Snake-People Holy City in person. At that time, the Snake-People will probably have a hard time resisting him.

Queen Medusa's expression turned serious, and her gaze toward Lin Yao was filled with worry.

Lin Yao, however, remained calm and composed. He stood up, walked to the entrance of the main hall, gazed at the distant, rolling sand dunes, and slowly said:

"Perfect timing. I'd also like to meet this Dou Zong expert. I can take him down and, incidentally, verify my suspicions."

Queen Medusa's heart skipped a beat. Lin Yao's nonchalant statement that he could easily defeat a Dou Zong expert—was this the kind of strength a Dou Huang expert could display?!

……

A few days later, inside the Yunlan Sect.

Yun Leng, the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect, stood anxiously at the entrance of the secluded cultivation room, his face grave.

He had just received a message that the sect leader Yun Yun, the alchemist Gu He, and others had been captured by Queen Medusa in the Snake People Holy City, and their fate was unknown.

The matter was of great importance, and he dared not delay in the slightest, so he could only come to disturb the former sect leader, Yunshan, who was in seclusion.

"Sect Master, something terrible has happened!"

Yun Leng called out respectfully to the door of the seclusion room.

A moment later, the door to the secluded chamber slowly opened, and a figure dressed in a gray robe walked out.

This man had an old face and gray hair, but his eyes were as sharp as a hawk's.

A faint but powerful aura emanated from him; it was none other than Yun Shan, who had already broken through to the Dou Zong realm.

"What's the matter that you're so panicked?"

Yunshan's voice was somewhat hoarse, yet it contained an air of authority.

Yun Leng quickly recounted the whole story, including the news that Yun Yun and Gu He went to the Snake People's Holy City to seek the Strange Fire, but were captured by Queen Medusa.

Upon hearing this, Yunshan's face instantly darkened, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Yun Yun was his most valued disciple, and now she had been captured by the snake people. This was a slap in the face to his Yunlan Sect!

"Queen Medusa, the snake-people..."

Yunshan's voice was icy and chilling.

"How dare you touch anyone from my Yunlan Sect! You're asking for trouble!"

He turned to walk towards the direction of the Serpent People's Holy City, but at that moment, a cold voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"Yunshan, you can make a move, but don't ruin my Soul Palace's important affairs, or you'll bear the consequences!"

Upon hearing this voice, Yunshan's body stiffened abruptly, a flash of anger crossing his eyes, which he quickly suppressed.

He knew that this was the Protector Wu of the Soul Palace, and also his current "collaborator".

The Soul Palace's strength was far too great; he simply couldn't contend with it.

Although he had broken through to the Dou Zong realm, he was still like an ant in front of the Soul Palace.

"snort!"

Yunshan snorted coldly, his heart filled with resentment, but he could only suppress his anger for the time being.

At the same time, considering that the snake-people dared to touch his disciple, he had to let them see the invincibility of a Dou Zong powerhouse.

He was nothing but a dog in front of the Soul Palace, but to the others in the Gama Empire, he was absolutely invincible.

I have endured humiliation and hardship for this very power. It is time for the Gama royal family and the snake-people to witness the might of the Yunlan Sect.

……

Meanwhile, in the Serpent People's Holy City, Lin Yao sat cross-legged atop the city wall, cultivating while awaiting Yun Shan's arrival.

He did not go to Wutan City or Yunlan Sect on his own initiative, not because he was afraid of the Soul Palace, but to avoid conflict with the major forces in Zhongzhou before the amplification.

The Soul Hall is a powerful force with many experts. Although he is quite strong now, he is not confident enough to confront the Soul Hall head-on.

Unless a grown-up brother joins the Star Palace, you still have to play it safe and develop stealthily.

Of course, if Yunshan offered himself up, then he would have no reason to be polite.

Taking over Yunshan, and then subduing or killing the Soul Hall's Protector Wu, would be an excellent opportunity to lay the groundwork in the Jia Ma Empire and prepare for a future trip to Zhongzhou.

Queen Medusa stood beside Lin Yao, gazing at his tall, straight back, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.

Although she didn't know why Lin Yao wanted her to take down Gu He and the others, she was happy to see the Snake People and Yunlan Sect clash.

Firstly, she could use this to verify Lin Yao's true strength.

If Lin Yao can easily defeat a Dou Zong expert, then the Snake-Human Race will have a true backer, and their dream of returning to Zhongzhou will no longer be an unattainable luxury.

Secondly, the snake people can also benefit from the conflict.

Both the Yunlan Sect and the Jia Ma Empire inevitably suffer losses in their conflicts with the Snake People, while the Snake People can take the opportunity to strengthen their own power.

In her view, no matter the outcome, the snake people would not suffer a loss.

If Lin Yao's strength is truly so overwhelming that even if she breaks through again, she will still be far behind, then it wouldn't be unacceptable for the Snake-People to admit defeat and submit to Lin Yao as their master.
