Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 60 Heavenly Rank Battle Skill: Demon Possession

After a brief silence, Queen Medusa said, "Come with me, let's discuss this in the temple."

Upon hearing Queen Medusa's words, the snake people immediately lowered their guard against Xiao Jue. Xiao Jue flapped his dragon wings and followed Queen Medusa into the royal city, arriving at Queen Medusa's temple.

Queen Medusa flew Xiao Jue over a lake, released the energy seal on it, and brought him to an island.

The island is not very large, but it is covered with lush bamboo groves and flowers, making it look vibrant and quite beautiful.

In a circular open area in the center of the island, the surrounding bamboo and flower bushes had been cleaned up. Small, smooth pebbles were scattered in the open area, forming a small pool filled with crystal-clear water. White mist swirled on the surface of the water, and even from a distance, Xiao Jue could still feel the extreme cold it contained.

Xiao Jue's gaze finally settled on a lotus pedestal carved from strange crystal in the center of the small pond. At that moment, a ball of blue flame was slowly rising on the lotus pedestal.

This ball of azure flame is extremely spiritual. As it churns slightly, it sometimes condenses into the shape of a lotus flower, and sometimes into a small azure flame snake, which floats and coils in the lotus seat. Its gentle appearance is extremely cute.

That crystal lotus platform was clearly no ordinary object. Every time the cyan flames were about to escape the lotus platform's range, a faint white light shield would suddenly appear, then deflect the strange flames back.

A careful scan of the pool reveals that each time the strange fire comes into contact with the light barrier, the icy spring water in the pool decreases by a barely perceptible amount. Clearly, the crystal lotus seat must have relied on the power of the icy spring water to trap the cyan flame within.

Queen Medusa recognized Xiao Jue's strength. He was a fourth-tier magical beast who had seemingly consumed a transformation pill and possessed considerable backing. Queen Medusa still harbored some doubts about Xiao Jue's self-made sixth-grade alchemist skills.

However, the fact that Xiao Jue, as a fourth-order magical beast, could transform into human form and even produce the Heavenly Soul Blood Fusion Pill proves that he has a seventh-grade alchemist behind him, or that the force behind him can hire a seventh-grade alchemist to help him.

Moreover, regardless of Xiao Jue's background, he came here alone, and Queen Medusa did not believe that a mere Dou Ling could defeat her in her temple.

A luxurious and expensive purple brocade robe enveloped her graceful figure, her voluptuous and alluring body exuding a seductive charm. Her long, narrow, pale purple eyes were naturally captivating, drawing the gaze of almost every man.

Beneath the purple brocade robe, a section of purple snake tail was visible, lazily swaying and exuding wildness and exotic charm.

Queen Medusa's beautiful eyes were now fixed on the blue flames in the small pool. Under the reflection of the light, the arc of the flames flickered in her pale purple eyes.

After staring silently at the azure flames for a long time, Queen Medusa suddenly sighed softly, turned to Xiao Jue, and said, "If you can help me evolve successfully, then I can give you the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame."

"But is there a way to solve the flaw in that secret technique?" She frowned slightly and said, "The snake people have always been at odds with the surrounding human empires. If I fall into a deep sleep after my evolution, the snake people will inevitably face a crisis."

"The problem of a weakened soul cannot be solved." Xiao Jue shook his head. If this problem were really so easy to solve, the Yin-Yang Saint would have evolved into the Ancient Void Dragon long ago.

This evolution is an evolution of bloodline and soul. It treats itself as a medicinal herb to extract a strand of high-level bloodline from the depths of the bloodline and transform it into a brand new physical body. At the same time, this brand new physical body will also absorb its own soul essence and give birth to a new soul.

However, the original soul will not disappear, but will become weak after losing a large amount of its original essence. The newly formed soul will not be strong enough, so it will remain dormant for a long time.

Moreover, even after taking the sixth-grade elixir, the Spirit Fusion Pill, the two souls are only fused together; the soul power is still not restored to its former state.

Queen Medusa suddenly asked, "What is your true form?"

Xiao Jue said, "The Illusionary Fire Scorpion Dragon Beast possesses the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon."

Queen Medusa gazed intently at Xiao Jue with her beautiful eyes and asked, "Since you possess such a secret technique, why don't you evolve yourself into the supreme magical beast, the Ancient Void Dragon?"

Before Xiao Jue could answer, she suddenly raised her hand to attack him. A wisp of colorful battle qi condensed in her palm, but the next moment, Queen Medusa was unable to move.

"Celestial-Rank Combat Technique: Summoning Ghosts!"

"Little girl, don't be so fierce."

The old apothecary appeared with a smile. Xiao Jue handed the Azure Lotus Platform to the old apothecary, placed the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame on it, and then took out the Black Demon Cauldron to seal the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

A look of shock flashed in Queen Medusa's eyes, but there was no fear as she stared at Xiao Jue and Yao Lao.

The next moment, Yao Lao sealed Medusa Queen's fighting spirit. After Xiao Jue took off Medusa Queen's storage ring, he used the Yin-Yang Cauldron to put Medusa Queen into it.

Xiao Jue couldn't help but complain, "I thought I'd get to experience being possessed by a Heaven-Rank Battle Technique, but you ended up taking action yourself."

The old apothecary was both amused and exasperated. What did he mean by being possessed by a ghost? It was as if he were an old ghost trying to possess Xiao Jue.

The old doctor asked, "What are your plans next? Will you return directly to Stone Desert City to help Xiao Yan devour the sub-flame of the strange fire, or...?"

"Of course, it's to help Her Majesty the Queen evolve."

Xiao Jue collected all the Ice Spirit Cold Spring water, looked at the crystal lotus seat, and asked Yao Lao, "What is this?"

"It's just a crystal," Yao Lao said. "With the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, it can restrain the strange fire, but once the Ice Spirit Cold Spring is exhausted, it's just an ordinary crystal lotus seat."

Xiao Jue asked curiously, "With so many icy springs, could we use this crystal lotus seat to help Xiao Yan absorb the strange fire?"

The old apothecary stroked his chin and nodded. "You can give it a try; there's no harm in it."

He put away the crystal lotus seat, and then Xiao Jue sat cross-legged in front of the Yin-Yang Cauldron, pouring the Yin-Yang Twin Flames into it, while Yao Lao watched curiously from the side.

Inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron, Queen Medusa had long since transformed into a small purple snake. Due to the suppression of the Yin-Yang Cauldron, Queen Medusa was unable to transform into a giant purple snake that was over ten feet long.

Under the scorching heat of the Yin and Yang flames, Queen Medusa's true form, the Purple Nether Flame Serpent, was repeatedly burned to a bloody pulp, yet it recovered under the nourishment of the Yang fire, and its bloodline was continuously purified.
