Battle Through the Heavens: Even without the Burning Flame Technique, I, Xiao Yan, still became an e

Chapter 100 Sudden Move

Before the people arrive, the sound comes first.

A charming yet slightly aloof and domineering female voice drifted over, instantly putting everyone present on edge.

Queen Medusa, a powerful figure at the peak of the Douhuang realm for many years, is a super strong member of the Snake-People race who causes headaches for the surrounding empires.

Ordinary Dou Huangs are no match for her, and the black-robed Dou Huang who was invited this time is only at the level of a four-star Dou Huang.

Her main purpose was not to oppose Queen Medusa, but to delay her and prevent her from going berserk, so that none of the people present could escape.

Even so, this journey was fraught with peril, and if their employer hadn't been Gu He, these Battle Kings would never have accompanied them all the way.

As the sound came, the space inside the hall slightly distorted, and a beautiful figure appeared.

The beautiful figure was dressed in a magnificent purple brocade robe that covered her full and shapely body, and beneath the robe, a small section of purple snake tail was visible.

As the queen of the snake people, her appearance was perfect, with her diamond-shaped snake eyes looking cold and seemingly devoid of any emotion.

With her appearance, a powerful aura erupted instantly, and everyone except the silent black-robed Dou Huang couldn't help but take a step back.

When Xiao Yan was hit by the oppressive force, he felt a fighting spirit supporting his body from behind, helping him resist the terrifying pressure.

Xiao Yan's eyes showed a hint of surprise. This Dou Qi seemed to be released by the black-robed Dou Huang.

He initially thought that this Dou Huang was protecting everyone, but seeing the two Dou Wangs with solemn expressions and retreating, Xiao Yan immediately realized that it seemed to be the other party taking special care of him.

"Queen Medusa, she truly lives up to her reputation." Gu He exclaimed in amazement. It seemed that he had underestimated her this time. He should have invited another Dou Huang.

Her mere appearance exerted immense pressure on everyone. Had she not made a move, even among the Black-Robed Battle Emperors present, several would likely have been forced to remain here forever.

"Dan Wang Gu He, I've heard of your name, the renowned sixth-grade alchemist. What brings you to my temple?"

Queen Medusa spoke slowly, her tone utterly calm.

Seeing that the other party's attitude was not entirely resistant, Gu He was slightly pleased, as it seemed that a deal was possible.

"Your Majesty, this unauthorized intrusion into your temple was truly offensive. Guhe will bear all the losses incurred."

I had heard that Your Majesty obtained a strange fire in the Tagor Desert, and I have come here today to trade with you.

You know how important a different kind of fire is to an alchemist, so I can pay an extremely high price for it.

In Gu He's view, Queen Medusa's bloodline was cold and yin, so this strange fire was useless to her.

She obtained the strange fire either because she coveted its destructive power, or because she planned to use it to trade with other alchemists.

He is now taking the initiative to set off in order to be the first to make a deal with her before anyone else.

"Oh? I'd like to hear what kind of price Master Furukawa will offer?"

Queen Medusa's tone remained calm, but she seemed to have developed a bit more interest.

"Your Majesty, if you are willing to trade with me for a different kind of fire, I am willing to pay you one Grade 7 Transformation Pill and two Grade 6 Battle Spirit Pills. What do you say?"

When Gu He said this, almost everyone present widened their eyes.

For laymen, they may not understand how difficult these pills are to refine, but they do know their publicly available prices.

The Battle Spirit Pill is considered top-tier among sixth-grade pills, and its effects can drive any Battle King mad.

As long as it is ingested, its medicinal properties will take effect in just a few days, allowing a Dou Wang powerhouse to advance one level without any side effects. It should be noted that from the Dou Wang level onwards, each level of advancement requires several years or even decades, and a Dou Ling Pill can undoubtedly greatly increase the cultivation time of a Dou Wang.

Its only drawback is that only one pill can be taken at a time. Once the medicinal properties dissipate, the body will develop resistance, and taking a second pill at this point will have no effect.

As for the Transformation Pill, it is an extremely powerful medicine, a true seventh-grade pill.

Its function is simple: it allows magical beasts to transform into human form, possessing both the long lifespan of a magical beast and the cultivation speed of a human. It is something that every sixth-tier magical beast desires most.

"Guhe actually possesses a Transformation Pill?"

Even Xiao Yan's eyes widened in shock, knowing that the medicine book Sheng'er had given him contained...

Each page contains a recipe for an elixir. Once you have learned the recipe for the previous page, you can begin practicing the recipe for the next page.

This Transformation Pill is a seventh-grade pill of the same level as the Nether Crystal Pill engraved on the last page of this medicine book!

Normally, a rank-amount alchemist is considered qualified if they achieve a success rate of over 30% in refining pills of the same grade.

A sixth-grade alchemist like Gu He can still have a 30% success rate in refining the Dou Ling Pill, but at most a 50% success rate in refining the Hua Xing Pill.

Therefore, this Transformation Pill was most likely not made by Gu He himself, otherwise his condition and luck would be too extraordinary.

Even the usually calm Queen Medusa couldn't help but be moved, and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.

But she quickly sighed and politely declined Dan Wang Guhe's offer: "Master Guhe, the price you offered is indeed very tempting, but I regret to inform you that I cannot trade this strange fire to you."

You may leave now, and I can pretend that today's events never happened.

Furukawa never expected that Queen Medusa would refuse such a deal.

Even all the Dou Wangs present were puzzled. What use would a snake-person with the Yin-cold attribute have for this strange fire?

Gu He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to give up, since his team was no match for Queen Medusa.

"etc."

Just as everyone was about to leave, the black-robed Dou Huang suddenly spoke up, "I once read a secret in an ancient book."

Legend has it that when the Medusa Queen of the Snake-People tribe reaches a bottleneck, she can undergo a transformation through a secret method. Once the transformation is complete, her bloodline will evolve and break through the limitations of her original bloodline.

To complete this metamorphosis and evolution, one crucial element is needed: a different kind of fire.

The words of the black-robed Dou Huang once again surprised everyone present, and thus they understood why Queen Medusa would rather refuse the conditions offered by Gu He.

"I never expected you to know the secrets of my clan. It's truly remarkable," Queen Medusa couldn't help but praise him.

"I not only know this secret, but I also know that you are just a mirror image now. The real you has probably already begun or is performing the rituals required for that secret technique."

After saying that, the black-robed Dou Huang suddenly made a move, and a cyan Dou Qi burst out from her hand, striking the Medusa Queen in front of her.

The stunningly beautiful snake-man in the purple brocade robe was instantly shattered by this attack, turning into specks of light and vanishing.
