"It's already been five days. Why hasn't Brother Gu Fei come out yet?"
Inside the stone hall, Zi Yan was lounging on a chair that originally belonged to Xiong Zhan, her legs crossed. Ever since Gu Fei went into seclusion, she had been counting the days. She was starting to get tired of the medicinal herbs, and sometimes, when she encountered something that tasted bad, she would take a bite and then throw it away.
As time passed, Zi Yan became quieter and didn't boss Xiong Zhan around as much. Gradually, her face began to flush, and her body became as hot as a furnace.
"My little granny, what's happening to you? Did you eat too much and can't digest it?"
Xiong Zhan was growing anxious due to Zi Yan's condition, but he didn't understand what was happening.
Just as Xiong Zhan was debating whether to call out to the meditating Gu Fei, Zi Yan suddenly fell into a deep sleep. As she slept, a dense purple light began to pour out from her body, eventually forming a large cocoon of purple light, several meters in size, that completely enveloped her.
At that moment, an invisible wave of energy, undetectable to the naked eye, passed through the walls of the stone hall and spread out across the sky above the mountain peak...
"Boom!"
As this wave of energy spread, the entire mountain peak suddenly erupted in chaos, like a pot of boiling oil!
The sudden upheaval of the heavens and earth immediately caught the attention of all the magical beasts on the mountain. However, spiritual energy was too elusive for most of them to sense. Only a few powerful high-level magical beasts could vaguely detect it, while the rest could only stare blankly at the sky.
"What is this?"
Xiong Zhan was startled by the sudden change. His gaze swept across the area before settling on the stone chamber deep within the hall, where Gu Fei was meditating. His eyes flashed with shock.
"Could this be spiritual energy... It's said that only some alchemy masters who have reached the eighth tier can absorb this!"
"This person's talent is truly monstrous!"
Xiong Zhan's eyes flickered with thought. Although he appeared rough, he was not without knowledge. After all, the Pill Realm had once been the headquarters of the Pill Tower, only to gradually decline and withdraw.
He hadn't expected that Gu Fei, despite his young age, had not only reached the level of Dou Venerate but also possessed soul power that had reached an extraordinary level.
"Bang!"
As Xiong Zhan was lost in his thoughts, a thunderous sound suddenly erupted from within the stone chamber. The ceiling of the incredibly sturdy stone room was abruptly blown apart, and a formless light shot out, pausing mid-air. An immense soul power, like a massive tidal wave, surged outward at lightning speed...
High in the sky, an invisible light hovered above, and a vast, boundless soul power spread out like a tidal wave from its center, sweeping across the surrounding area.
At that moment, the entire mountain range trembled under the weight of this powerful soul pressure. Except for a few exceptionally powerful high-level magical beasts, the rest of the creatures trembled uncontrollably under the overwhelming force...
Meanwhile, inside the stone chamber where Gu Fei was meditating, a small seven-colored snake was thrown into the air by the impact of the soul power, slamming into the stone wall before falling to the ground.
In a flash of light, the seven-colored snake transformed into an incredibly seductive, naked figure.
The bewitching beauty, now standing naked with a curvaceous body, was none other than the Queen Medusa. At this moment, it was evident that her strength had advanced to the level of Dou Ancestor, as her former serpent tail had transformed into two slender, white legs, with her delicate, snow-white feet hovering half an inch above the ground, untouched by dust.
"What terrifying soul pressure!"
"This person is becoming increasingly frightening. At this rate, I'll never be able to catch up..."
The Queen's beautiful eyes glowed as she gazed at the seated Gu Fei, a faint trace of killing intent spreading through her heart. She could sense that Gu Fei's soul was no longer within his body.
For her, this was a perfect opportunity. However, she hesitated. First, because of the time she had spent closely following Gu Fei, she knew how terrifying he was. There was also another reason, though even Queen Medusa herself couldn't fully understand it.
Queen Medusa was so focused on Gu Fei that she failed to notice her own naked state.
"Whoosh!"
As the Medusa Queen watched, a formless orb of light passed through the walls and shot towards Gu Fei's forehead. In an instant, it vanished.
That formless orb was Gu Fei's soul. As it re-entered his forehead, Gu Fei's body trembled slightly, and the overwhelming soul pressure that had filled the area instantly dissipated.
Gu Fei's pitch-black eyes finally regained their clarity.
However, as soon as he regained consciousness, an incredibly alluring scene greeted his eyes: Queen Medusa was standing completely naked, just three meters in front of him.
The sight of her snow-white, undulating curves, her jade-like, fair skin, and her enchanting face all struck Gu Fei's nerves with a powerful impact.
Previously, Queen Medusa had also appeared naked before Gu Fei, but at that time, she hadn't fully transformed- her serpent tail had tempered Gu Fei's restlessness.
This time, however, that seductive tail had been replaced by a pair of exquisite legs, and the heat in Gu Fei's heart surged even more intensely, causing his breath to quicken.
"What are you trying to do?"
Noticing Gu Fei's gaze, the Medusa Queen suddenly became aware of her situation. Her bewitching face flushed with a mix of embarrassment and anger. With a wave of her hand, she instantly clothed herself in a red, gauzy dress made of Dou Qi energy.
"What do I want to do? Weren't you the one who stood there stark naked, trying to seduce me?"
"Or are you so insecure that you think your naked body has no appeal to a man?"
As Queen Medusa covered herself, Gu Fei regained some composure and responded with a playful smile.
"Nonsense, I would never try to seduce you! And besides, I..."
Medusa quickly denied Gu Fei's first accusation, but as she began to respond to the second, she suddenly realized something was wrong and hastily swallowed her words.
"Just now, the Seven-Coloured Heaven Swallowing Python was briefly stunned by your soul pressure, and I suddenly materialized, which is why I forgot about everything else..."
Queen Medusa took a moment to compose herself, lowering her voice as she explained. Her face was now even more flushed, making her look even more alluring.
Seemingly realizing that things might escalate in an unforeseen direction, she slowly crouched down. As a seven-colored light enveloped her, Queen Medusa once again transformed into a small, seven-colored snake.
