BTTH: Starting with the Complete Memories of Yao Chen

Chapter 74: Green Lotus Core Flame, Queen Medusa 

Su Yun chose to have the parts of Yao Lao's memory related to cultivation and alchemy directly transmitted to him by the system through a kind of knowledge instillation. This saved him a great deal of time in his cultivation and alchemy practices.

Carefully observing, Su Yun used his own soul power to interface with the screen, adjusting the playback speed and selecting jumps.

After half an hour, Su Yun finally pinpointed the location of the Green Lotus Core Flame.

A wave of excitement washed over him.

Ha, another step closer.

Su Yun licked his dry lips, took a big gulp of water from his water bag, and then sat down cross-legged to recover the Dou Qi he had expended in the battle with the twin-headed fire spirit snake.

An hour later, his Dou Qi was fully restored.

With a thought, Su Yun reappeared above the magma and slowly flew towards it.

After half an hour, the magma had returned to a state of calm, but the immense heat it contained was still formidable.

Approaching the magma, Su Yun's Dou Qi circulated through his meridians.

Flame Shield!
A protective shield without any dead angles enveloped Su Yun.

A glint of sharpness flashed in Su Yun's eyes.

This Dou Technique was prepared specifically for this moment.

The protective capability of the Flame Shield against other forms of attack was only of a high Xuan-grade effect, but against fire attribute attacks and erosion, it had an extraordinary effect, comparable to a low Earth-grade Dou Technique.

Without hesitation, protected by the Flame Shield, Su Yun plunged into the magma.

With a 'plop', his figure submerged.

Feeling the consumption of Dou Qi inside the magma, Su Yun's eyebrows raised slightly.

This consumption was not small.

But no matter, he didn't plan to dive with the Flame Shield on.

With a thought, Su Yun's body returned to the system space.

Then, with another thought, he reappeared in the magma, oddly five meters away from his original position.

Su Yun grinned.

Exiting the system space did not mean he had to appear at the original spot; he could appear within the maximum distance scanned by the system based on his needs.

At the Dou Qi stage, the system's scanning range was one meter radius!
Dou Practitioner, two meters!

Dou Master, three meters!
Dou Grandmaster, four meters!

Now that he had broken through to the Dou Ling realm, his limit was a five-meter radius!
As Su Yun repeatedly jumped between the system space and the magma for half an hour, a bright green light shone not far away.

A green glow enveloped the area, with a green lotus sitting right in the center of the light, seemingly at peace with the world.

Green Lotus Core Flame!
Su Yun's heart surged with joy, and an ecstatic smile crossed his face as he hurriedly jumped towards the green light.

As he approached, he could feel the temperature around him rising sharply.

Su Yun made a few more jumps and arrived in front of the green light.

Protected by the Flame Shield, he entered it.

Similar to the principle of the eye of a typhoon having the least wind, the temperature around him surprisingly dropped upon entering the green light.

Su Yun looked at the green lotus not far away, his eyes burning with undisguised fervor.

The long-sought-after strange fire now appeared before him, making him feel a bit unreal and dreamlike.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Su Yun slowly approached the green lotus.

Chapter 75: Green Lotus Core Flame, Queen Medusa (Third Update!)

The Green Lotus Core Flame, ranked nineteenth on the list of heavenly flames, is nurtured deep within the earth. It undergoes numerous temperings, mergings, compressions, and refinements by the earth's fire. It takes ten years to form a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to become a lotus. At its full maturity, it appears as a green lotus with a cluster of blue flames at its heart, known as the Green Lotus Fire or the Green Lotus Core Flame!

Closer, even closer now.

When Su Yun was about five meters away from the Green Lotus Core Flame, he stopped approaching.

"System, recover both the Green Lotus Core Flame and its lotus platform!"

"Ding, Green Lotus Core Flame and its lotus platform detected, recovery successful."

With another thought, Su Yun entered the system space, withdrew the Flame Shield, and looked at the tranquil lotus platform in the space, grinning.

Hehehe…

Relaxing his mind, Su Yun slumped down in the system space.

Now that the item was secured within the system space, all that was left was its absorption, allowing him a moment of relaxation.

Sitting cross-legged, he recovered his Dou Qi. Even with the miraculous effects of the system space, his journey to the depths of the magma had still drained a significant amount of his Dou Qi.

Fully recharged, Su Yun, protected by the Flame Shield, spent another half hour before returning above the magma.

Su Yun, using his Purple Cloud Wings, hovered above the magma, catching his breath.

Back here, his fully restored Dou Qi was nearly depleted again.

Su Yun gave a wry smile; such a place was not meant for a mere Dou Ling like him.

Successfully acquiring the Green Lotus Core Flame was already a great achievement.

It just confirmed the adage: The future is bright, but the path is tortuous.

The red philosophy has not deceived me.

Su Yun channeled the little Dou Qi left in his body, flying towards the rock layer.

Suddenly, a massive wave of Dou Qi fluctuation came from above.

Su Yun's face changed, sensing the direction of the fluctuation was heading towards him!
Without any hesitation, Su Yun vanished from the spot, returning to the system space, keeping an eye on the outside situation.

Just as Su Yun returned to the system space, a graceful figure appeared before him within a short span of time.

The sudden appearance of the woman, clad in a purple brocade robe, revealed a delicate and translucent body with full curves, reminiscent of a ripe peach, stirring imaginations and igniting a fiery sensation in the viewer.

However, Su Yun had no interest in admiring this beautiful and charming body. His heart was shaking uncontrollably from shock.

Beneath the graceful figure was, astonishingly, a snake tail!
Judging by the intensity of the Dou Qi felt earlier and the physique of the person before him, the identity of this tempting woman was almost certain.

Queen Medusa!!

Why was she here?

Su Yun couldn't help but swallow, his Adam's apple bobbing.

But then he relaxed.

Currently inside the system space, even if Medusa was powerful, she couldn't possibly penetrate it.

With this in mind, Su Yun nonchalantly lay back.

What a truly exhausting day.

Not only had he been through a great battle, but he also navigated the magma in search of the Green Lotus Core Flame. Just as it was all over, Queen Medusa appeared out of nowhere.

Meanwhile, outside, Queen Medusa's beautiful brows were tightly furrowed.

The aura of the heavenly flame had emanated from here, so why was there nothing?

Queen Medusa, with her red Dou Qi wings, flew down from the rock layer, examining the surrounding traces.

She became more convinced of her suspicion.

Indeed, the traces left around the rock layer were that of a heavenly flame.

But where had this heavenly flame gone now?
Meanwhile, Su Yun, who had been closely watching Queen Medusa in the system space, suddenly noticed a glass orb in her hand. His eyes narrowed, as if he had come to a realization.
