Chapter 75: The Second Memory of the Pure lotus Demon Saint
The object in her hand could be one of the foundations of the Snake-People tribe.
Yao Lao once mentioned that a successfully evolved Medusa Queen had appeared in the Dou Qi Continent. Although her original form wasn't the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, it was a very powerful ancient ferocious beast known as the Seven-Winged Purple-Gold Snake.
Medusa's ability to find this place might be due to some method or treasure left by the previous Medusa Queen that could sense heavenly flames.
Judging by Medusa's occasional glances at the glass orb in her hand, it was likely that this object was responsible.
Su Yun narrowed his eyes, realizing the complication of the situation.
According to the original timeline, it would take Medusa at least a year to find this place. His use of the Bone Spirit Cold Fire combined with the three beast fires to form the Raging Fire Lotus to confront the twin-headed fire spirit snake had inadvertently led the glass orb to detect it, thus accelerating Medusa's arrival.
Su Yun felt a sense of difficulty.
He steadied himself, realizing that plans cannot always keep up with changes.
Who knew that Medusa would have such a treasure?
Shaking his head, Su Yun knew he had only one option now.
Lay low!
Yes, lay low again!
Su Yun, always cautious, had enough food and water stored in the system space to last him half a year.
Surely, Medusa wouldn't stay here for half a year, right?
This place was near Shi Desert City, a human city on the border of the Jia Ma Empire. It was unlikely that Medusa, quietly coming here alone for a brief stay, would summon the Snake-People for a thorough search or stay for an extended period without inciting a response from the Jia Ma Empire.
However, he probably couldn't leave in the short term. After all, having finally found traces of a heavenly flame, he would also thoroughly investigate.
At this moment, Su Yun thought of something – were Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, still on the surface, still alive...
Thinking of this, Su Yun's eyebrows raised, a hint of sorrow crossing his face.
Dear brothers, if you have unfortunately passed away, I shall take care of your widows!
Su Yun solemnly promised in his heart and then began to recover his Dou Qi.
While Su Yun was recovering his Dou Qi.
The outside world's Medusa Queen was quite agitated. Damn, why is there no movement!
Medusa looked at the glass orb in her hand, her beautiful eyebrows knitting into a frown.
The object was called the Sunfire Crystal Orb.
It was a legacy left by the previous Medusa Queen of their Snake-People tribe, who had evolved successfully after being burned by a heavenly flame and breaking through the Dou Huang barrier.
That predecessor was incredibly powerful. After successfully evolving, her cultivation became unstoppable. After decades of cultivation, she became a Dou Zun powerhouse.
Had it not been for an assassination by three human Dou Zun powerhouses, she certainly could have led the Snake-People tribe to their zenith!
The Sunfire Crystal Orb could sense the fluctuations of heavenly flames within a certain range. The closer the heavenly flame, the brighter the glow inside the Sunfire Crystal Orb.
Queen Medusa rubbed her forehead, looking at the still unresponsive Sunfire Crystal Orb, somewhat at a loss.
The reason why the Snake-People were driven to the Tagor Desert by humans was not only due to their inferior strength but also because of this factor.
Chapter 76: The Second Memory of the Nether Lotus Saint (First Update!)
The artifact in her hand might be one of the foundational treasures of the Snake-People tribe. Yao Lao had mentioned that a Medusa Queen who had successfully evolved had once appeared in the Dou Qi Continent. Though her original form wasn't the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, she was a formidable ancient beast known as the Seven-Winged Purple-Gold Snake.
After becoming the queen, Medusa had searched for a long time, almost pinpointing the general location. Today, the Sunfire Crystal Orb shone brightly, leading her here joyously. But half an hour ago, it abruptly stopped functioning, like it was broken, its light completely vanishing.
Queen Medusa now even doubted whether the earlier intense glow was an anomaly of a heavenly flame or just a precursor to the orb malfunctioning.
But the traces on the rock layer were undeniable...
Narrowing her eyes, Medusa gazed at the magma below. Perhaps the heavenly flame was hidden under this magma. The previous fluctuations might have been due to the heavenly flame emerging anomalously from the magma and being detected by the Sunfire Crystal Orb.
Now, the heavenly flame might have depleted much of its energy due to the earlier eruption and was covered by the magma, which is why the Sunfire Crystal Orb wasn't responding.
The more she thought about it, the more plausible it seemed. Bursting with powerful Dou Qi, Queen Medusa employed a defensive Dou Technique, wrapping her graceful body and diving into the magma.
Meanwhile, Su Yun, who was recovering his Dou Qi in the system space, raised his eyebrows upon seeing this.
Although he didn't know what exactly the woman had deduced, it seemed like a good opportunity...
However, he shook his head, suppressing the impulse to escape from there. Who knew when Queen Medusa might return?
Although he could see the outside scene with his eyes in the system space, his soul perception couldn't penetrate the space to the outside world. He had no way to judge Queen Medusa's location.
Better to cultivate here for some time.
Stay low! Ah, no, stay steady!
After a while, Su Yun restored his Dou Qi to full and took out two maps.
These were the Nether Lotus Saint's fire maps that he had obtained (or rather, snatched) from Hai Bodong.
Licking his lips, Su Yun knew that these incomplete maps were useless to others unless fully assembled. But it was different for him, thanks to the system's recycling function.
Extracting the memories contained in these two fragments of the Nether Lotus Saint, he would have half of the Nether Lotus Saint's memories!
With this thought, Su Yun couldn't wait any longer.
"System, extract the memories of the Nether Lotus Saint remaining in these two fragments!"
"Ding, Nether Lotus Saint's remnant soul detected in a dormant state, meeting recycling conditions, recycling successful."
The mechanical voice of the system sounded like the most beautiful melody in Su Yun's mind.
He quickly checked the contents of the Nether Lotus Saint's memory. As a half-emperor who had lived to the end of his natural life, the Nether Lotus Saint's memories were vast. Even just a quarter of them was not something Su Yun could comprehend in a short time.
Su Yun skimmed through, focusing on the contained cultivation methods and Dou Techniques.
After a while, Su Yun's face gradually took on an odd expression.
On the surface, around the underground tunnel, the Mo Tie Mercenary Group and the Xiao brothers, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, lay in the desert, groaning in pain.
"Damn it, Dou Qi wings!
That woman from the Snake-People tribe must be at least a Dou Wang powerhouse!"
Xiao Ding and Xiao Li helped each other stand.
Xiao Ding said through gritted teeth. Just moments ago, they were guarding the entrance when a female snake-person with Dou Qi wings descended from the sky.
They had been in despair, ready to face death, but the woman seemed very anxious and in a hurry.
She ignored them completely, not intending to attack.
But even without intentional action, the mere turbulence of her Dou Qi was enough to send them flying without any resistance.
