As the extraordinarily beautiful face appeared before him, Gu Fei couldn't help but freeze for a moment. At this moment, Queen Medusa was wrapped in an extravagant and luxurious purple robe that hugged her exquisite figure.
Her voluptuous, alluring body exuded a seductive charm. Her long, slender pale purple eyes, which gleamed with a natural allure, seemed to draw the gaze of every man.
Beneath the purple robe, a section of her purple snake tail lazily swayed, releasing a wild and exotic charm.
At this moment, Queen Medusa's beautiful eyes were fixed intently on the cyan flame in the small pool.
After staring at the cyan flame for a long time, Queen Medusa suddenly let out a soft sigh, looked up at the sky, and then slowly stood up, her fiery figure rising to its full height.
"It's time..."
She murmured softly. Under the purple robe, two snow-white arms emerged as her delicate hands formed several intricate seals in front of her.
As the seals in Queen Medusa's hands changed, the crystal lotus pedestal suddenly trembled violently.
The cyan flame, freed from its restraints, transformed into a fierce blaze in the blink of an eye.
Queen Medusa bit her red lips lightly, her jade-like hands slowly undoing the buttons of her robe.
Suddenly, a perfect jade body, as if crafted by the heavens, was exposed naked in the bamboo forest.
Gu Fei's breath quickened slightly, and he felt his blood surge.
The scene before him was too tantalizing; even if he had no such intentions, he couldn't help but have a natural physiological reaction.
A blinding light burst forth from Queen Medusa's body, expanding and contracting continuously, accompanied by a roaring sound.
Gu Fei was not affected by this intense light; he closed his eyes and used his spiritual power to sense everything happening around him.
He clearly saw a massive purple snake, over ten meters long, hovering in the air above the small island.
The purple snake's body was long and powerful, exuding a certain elegance. Its light purple pupils lacked the ferocity of the other snake people Gu Fei had encountered, instead displaying tranquility and calmness.
During this time, Gu Fei simply watched Queen Medusa quietly, not interrupting her.
Since Queen Medusa had chosen this path, it would either lead to her destruction or her evolution into the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.
In either case, Gu Fei knew he would be able to claim the Green Lotus Core Flame.
…
While Queen Medusa was undergoing her evolution, a fierce battle was unfolding within the holy city of the snake people.
Gu He and Yun Yun's group had fought their way into Medusa's Holy City, struggling to search for traces of the heavenly flame.
Gu He was sensitive to the presence of the flames but couldn't distinguish them as easily as Gu Fei.
They could only search blindly while carving a bloody path through the city filled with snake people.
The snake people seemed endless; no sooner had they slain one group then another would emerge from around corners or shadows.
Gu He keenly sensed that these snake people were likely stalling for time!
They were probably waiting for reinforcements from the snake people's strong fighters!
Gu He realized this was bad and shouted, "If we can't find the heavenly flame soon, we must retreat immediately!"
But Yun Yun glanced westward and said, "Too late. Judging by the aura, another leader of the Eight Great Tribes is probably arriving."
Hearing her words, Gu He and the others' expressions changed slightly.
In the western sky, a red figure was rapidly flying toward the city.
Within about a minute, a male snake person enveloped in red battle energy appeared above the city.
His gaze swept across the air and finally fixed menacingly on Gu He and his group.
"Damn humans! How dare you enter our Holy City!"
"This guy is the leader of the Yan Snake Tribe, Yan Ci. Although he has a fiery temper, his strength ranks among the top of the Eight Great Tribe leaders. He's a tough opponent."
One of Gu He's group said with a sigh as they stared at the suddenly appearing snake person.
Hearing this, Gu He frowned, his gaze scanning the enemy as he said, "So this makes three Dou Kings now."
Despite being well-prepared, Gu He felt the pressure of facing so many strong snake people.
…
Meanwhile, the purple giant snake completed setting up the energy barrier, circled the sky a few times, and let out a clear, low cry.
Then, the giant snake unhesitatingly dove into the cyan flame.
Screams of agony echoed from within the heavenly flame. After nearly half an hour, the flames finally began to subside.
At this point, the purple snake's once-beautiful scales were now charred black.
The snake, which had been over ten meters long, was now reduced to just two or three meters. It was unimaginable how many bones and how much blood had been burned away.
Gu Fei watched closely, feeling a sense of awe.
Queen Medusa's willpower was extraordinary. Even faced with such torment, she endured it.
If it were him, he doubted he could withstand such pain.
The charred, stiff body of the giant snake began to shed its blackened skin, as if something was about to break free.
Suddenly, a seven-colored shadow darted out.
Gu Fei saw it clearly.
Before him was a small snake, only about two centimeters long.
Its body was covered in tiny, seven-colored scales, and its light purple eyes had a hint of a strange, bewitching charm.
A fresh, exotic fragrance emanated from its body. Although it was just a snake, it exuded an air of elegance and nobility.
Though the little snake didn't look particularly fierce, it was almost excessively beautiful.
The small Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python lacked many sharp offensive features, but Gu Fei knew that within this small body was a terrifying power that even a Dou Emperor would not dare to underestimate.
Gu Fei looked at it with interest, then turned his gaze to the cyan flame.
He took out the Green Lotus Platform and tossed it forward, slowly gathering the Green Lotus Core Flame back into the lotus.
Suddenly, the previously empty lotus center was filled with the eerie cyan flame.
After securing the Green Lotus Core Flame in his storage ring, Gu Fei turned his attention back to the Seven-Colored Python.
The little snake was also staring at him, eagerly slithering up his pant leg.
Seeing the adorable creature, Gu Fei reached out and tucked it into his sleeve.
But the Seven-Colored Python quickly emerged, coiling around his arm and affectionately rubbing against his wrist.
It let out a faint hissing sound, and when Gu Fei didn't look at it, it nudged him again.
Since Gu Fei was the first being the Seven-Colored Python saw, it considered this strange, four-limbed creature as its kin.
The snake's purple eyes met Gu Fei's gaze.
