Chapter 169: Successful Evolution! Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Serpent!
At the bottom of the queen's dormitory.
With a strong scent of dan and a powerful energy wave.
An ice-blue pearl, round and shiny, emerged from the medicine cauldron and fell into Xiao Ze's hand.
Medusa showed a rare sense of urgency in her eyes, "Is this the last auxiliary pill?"
"Correct." Xiao Ze stored it in a transparent jade bottle and tossed it to Medusa. He gave her some careful instructions on how to take the pill.
Seeing Medusa's confused expression, Xiao Ze sighed.
"It's okay, when you evolve, I'll be by your side to help you take the pills."
Medusa was surprised to hear that and then felt relieved. Xiao Ze had made many pills, and it would be a bit complicated for her to take them at the right moment. After all, she wasn't an alchemist and didn't understand as much about pills as Xiao Ze.
Ten days later, Medusa took the Emperor's Pill and returned to the peak of Dou Huang rank.
Xiao Ze, along with Queen Medusa and the four elders of the serpent tribe, headed to where the Blue Lotus Heart Flame was.
Previously, when Medusa failed to evolve, the Blue Lotus Heart Flame became violent, and the four elders had to expend a lot of effort to temporarily suppress it.
They had to reinforce the suppression periodically.
Entering the bamboo forest, Xiao Ze immediately saw the Blue Lotus Heart Flame within the seal.
Medusa looked at Xiao Ze and, after thinking for a moment, said, "I see that your flame is not ordinary. After I evolve, you can keep the Blue Lotus Heart Flame if you want."
Although Medusa didn't know much about alchemy, she clearly understood the attraction that a celestial flame had for alchemists.
Of course, Medusa had another hidden reason. If she failed to evolve, with her previous instruction, Xiao Ze could claim the flame without any problems.
Although Medusa was very confident, there was always fear of the unexpected.
The four elders did not oppose.
They had seen what Xiao Ze had done during this time and how he had greatly helped the queen. Although he had already received enough rewards, most of them couldn't be delivered until the queen successfully evolved and became a Dou Zong.
Therefore, technically, the serpent tribe owed Xiao Ze.
The queen's promise was something they didn't question.
However, Xiao Ze shook his head slightly.
"It's not necessary, I'm not interested. I pursue higher-ranked flames on the celestial flames list."
"The Blue Lotus Heart Flame can stay with the serpent tribe. Perhaps in the future, it will find someone destined for it."
Seeing Xiao Ze's clear rejection, Medusa showed a slight disappointment in her eyes.
The four elders were closely watching; the evolution process was extremely important.
The surroundings of the Serpent Temple were on high alert. Any intruder would be fiercely attacked by the serpent tribe.
Medusa took the Po Zong Dan Pill and brought it to her mouth. Then, her purple robe gently fell, revealing her flawless jade back.
Medusa took a deep breath, looking at the Blue Lotus Heart Flame within the seal, which seemed like a harmless flame.
But the previous evolution process had taught her how truly terrible the destructive power of that seemingly harmless flame was.
The pill's energy within her dissipated her fear, and Medusa formed hand seals, undoing the seal.
Simultaneously, her hands changed positions constantly, causing the surrounding energy to stir, and an intense layer of light enveloped her body.
When the light faded, a large purple serpent several meters long appeared out of nowhere.
The snake's eyes looked at Xiao Ze one last time, and then, like a moth to the flame, it dove into the Blue Lotus Heart Flame.
The evolution had begun!
Xiao Ze frowned slightly.
Looking at the Blue Lotus Heart Flame that immediately became violent, the scorching heat forced him to form a layer of fighting energy around his body as protection.
No wonder it was the most violent force in the world!
The Queen Medusa's piercing scream echoed in the area, causing all members of the serpent tribe to clench their fists and pray for their queen.
The beautiful shiny purple scales, under the celestial fire, writhed quickly and finally burned to charcoal.
Xiao Ze frowned, taking out a pill and tossing it into Medusa's mouth, wrapped in water attribute fighting energy.
During the evolution, being inside the celestial fire, Medusa couldn't retrieve pills; even if she did, they would instantly burn.
With Xiao Ze's pill, Medusa felt slightly better.
Over the next half hour, Xiao Ze threw several pills to Medusa.
Medusa's body, under the flames, began to shrink from its original size of several meters to just a few meters.
The four elders watched anxiously, feeling pain for Medusa's suffering.
Xiao Ze stared at Medusa's condition, watching the names rapidly flickering on his status panel, finally reducing to just two: Colossal Viper and Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Serpent.
Unlike the first evolution attempt, the change in the status panel indicated a smoother progress this time.
With the names changing rapidly, Xiao Ze tensed.
He had used up all his pills; now everything depended on Medusa.
The violent energy of the flame filled the space, forcing the four elders to retreat.
Only Xiao Ze, with his strong fighting energy, could withstand the impact of the flame's energy.
As the piercing screams weakened, the movements of the purple snake in the flames also calmed down.
The four elders felt disheartened, thinking the situation was no different from the first evolution attempt.
As they considered whether to remove the queen's body, a slight smile formed on Xiao Ze's lips.
On the panel, the name Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Serpent had stabilized and didn't disappear.
Xiao Ze, with quick reflexes, immediately chose to link.
Congratulations to the host for successfully linking with the blood of the Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Serpent!
Medusa has successfully evolved into the Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Serpent! Congratulations to the host for receiving feedback a hundredfold greater!
It was achieved!
At that moment, the energy of the surroundings began to stir, the sky darkened with clouds, and thunder echoed.
A lightning bolt descended, illuminating the entire Serpent Temple with its silver light.
The power of the lightning struck terror into countless snakes.
The lightning triggered the earthly flame, releasing violent energy.
The four elders retreated even further, fear evident on their faces.
Xiao Ze raised his right hand, forming a protective shield of dark blue energy to block the impact.
When the thunder subsided, the area was filled with a bluish mist.
A powerful pressure enveloped the Serpent Temple.
Feeling this pressure, the four elders, instead of being scared, felt relieved.
Xiao Ze narrowed his eyes, noticing something moving in the mist.
In an instant, Xiao Ze struck the void in front of him with his finger.
Bang!
A small snake glowing with rainbow colors appeared, staggering as if dazed by Xiao Ze's blow.
Xiao Ze examined the small snake with its colorful scales and subtle aroma, recalling its description.
With a body of seven colors, slightly purple eyes, fragrant body, and immense strength... it's the Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Serpent!
