Battle Through the Heavens: Marry Cao Ying, Reward is Devouring Ancestral Symbol

Demoness vs. QueenThe appearance of Medusa instantly froze the previously chaotic battlefield.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were completely stiff.

Under Medusa’s pressure, they couldn’t even move a finger, and cold sweat instantly soaked their backs.

The members of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group they brought looked utterly pale.

Some of the weaker members even collapsed directly onto the ground.

Medusa descended from the air, elegant and deadly.

Her purple snake tail coiled on the yellow sand, leaving faint traces.

She walked straight up to Xiao Ding, her eyes coldly fixed on him, and her red lips slightly parted:

”Human, tell this Queen, how did you know there was a Heavenly Flame here? Your purpose is so clear, who instructed you?”

Xiao Ding clenched his jaw, his lips pressed into a pale line.

He knew that Lord Shen Wen’s origins were extraordinary.

If he revealed it, it would likely bring about greater trouble.

Xiao Li, standing nearby, also had a resolute look and refused to speak.

Seeing the two remain silent, a cold glint flashed in Medusa’s eyes, and she didn’t even turn around.

She casually struck out into the air toward the Mo Tie Mercenary Group crowd.

A streak of purple Dou Qi instantly flew past.

”Bang!”

A muffled sound.

A mercenary couldn’t even scream before instantly exploding into a cloud of blood mist, and a pungent bloody smell immediately permeated the air.

”Won’t speak?” Medusa’s voice remained calm, yet carried a bone-chilling coldness. ”This Queen’s patience is limited.

Who will be next? Or... will one of you two die first?”

Her gaze shifted between Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, clearly discerning their close relationship, and her killing intent locked onto Xiao Li.

She needed information; she needed to know who else besides her was plotting for this Green Lotus Core Flame!

This concerned whether she could successfully evolve and break through to Dou Zong, and she absolutely would not allow any accidents to happen.

Just as she slightly raised her jade hand, preparing to make an example of Xiao Li in a desperate move to kill the chicken to warn the monkey.

”Stop!”

A soft shout came from afar.

At the same time, an equally formidable Dou Huang aura rushed into the area from far away, instantly tearing open a gap in the pressure Medusa had imposed on everyone.

Medusa’s hand, which was moving toward Xiao Li, paused slightly, and she turned her head with interest.

Three figures landed. The leader lifted her hood, revealing a peerlessly enchanting face capable of overshadowing the sun and moon—it was Cao Ying.

Behind her were the slightly nervous Dan Chen and Qing Lin, whose small face was deathly pale due to the bloodline sensing.

Medusa’s gaze was completely drawn to Cao Ying. A Five-Star Dou Huang aura, and so young?

She then looked at Dan Chen. Although her aura was not as ostentatious as Cao Ying’s, she was also a Dou Huang.

As for Qing Lin, Medusa merely glanced at her, deeming her insignificant.

”Two more have arrived.” Medusa’s red lips curved into a dangerous arc as she scrutinized Cao Ying. ”It seems you are behind them?”

Cao Ying met Medusa’s gaze without fear: ”Pill Tower, Cao Ying.”

”Pill Tower?” Medusa’s narrow eyes slightly narrowed. That name made her feel troubled.

The Pill Tower of Central Plains, that was a true behemoth of the continent.

”The Pill Tower is thousands of miles away from here. Have you also set your sights on this Heavenly Flame in the desert?”

”Heavenly Flames belong to those who are fated to obtain them,” Cao Ying responded calmly. ”Moreover, we were the ones who found the clues first. Why bother these common mercenaries?”

”You found the clues first? This place belongs to our Snake-People Clan,” Medusa sneered. ”This Heavenly Flame, this Queen is determined to obtain it. If you know what’s good for you, leave the Tagor Desert now, or else...”

”The Pill Tower can’t control this place!!”

A powerful aura surged again, and purple Dou Qi coiled around Medusa like flames.

At the same time, Cao Ying fully circulated the Dou Qi within her body, subtly activating the cultivation method of the ’Crimson Emperor Fire Sovereign Qi,’ allowing her control over her own flames to reach its peak.

Although her cultivation was inferior to her opponent’s, as the Demoness of the Cao Family and a genius of the Pill Tower, she naturally possessed her own pride and trump cards.

”You are the one who should scram!”

Cao Ying showed no intention of retreating. Above her jade hand, the Blood Spirit Demonic Flame rose up, and the surrounding temperature suddenly increased.

”If you want to fight, I’ll accompany you to the end! It’s the perfect opportunity to see just how strong the breathtakingly beautiful Medusa truly is!”

Before Medusa finished speaking, her figure had already approached Cao Ying like a ghost. Purple Dou Qi condensed into a solid streak, carrying bone-chilling coldness and destructive aura, striking directly at Cao Ying’s face!

Cao Ying was prepared. A fierce look flashed in her enchanting eyes, and she formed a hand seal with her jade hand. The Blood Spirit Demonic Flame roared out, transforming into a shield of fire to block in front of her.

”Boom!”

The purple Qi and the Demonic Flame violently collided, and an energy ripple instantly exploded, kicking up the surrounding sand several zhang high!

Cao Ying’s delicate body shook violently, she felt a sweetness in her throat, and she forcefully suppressed the surging metallic taste.

The gap between a Five-Star Dou Huang and a Peak Dou Huang was clearly revealed in this head-on clash.

”Spirit Realm soul, and decent flame control technique.” A hint of surprise flashed in Medusa’s eyes.

Cao Ying’s control over the Blood Spirit Demonic Flame was exquisitely subtle; the flame was agile, moving as if commanded by her arm, managing to dissolve her fierce Dou Qi impact layer by layer.

The quality of that flame also far surpassed ordinary Beast Fire, carrying a strange corrosive power.

”The Dou Qi is also so refined... A Pill Tower genius indeed has some tricks.”

But surprise was surprise, and Medusa’s offensive became even faster.

Her figure flickered, and purple snake shadows appeared out of thin air, biting toward Cao Ying from all directions.

Every snake shadow contained power sufficient to severely injure an ordinary Dou Huang.

Cao Ying gritted her silver teeth.

Her Soul Power erupted at full force, and the pressure of the Middle Spirit Realm permeated the area.

As her hands danced, the Blood Spirit Demonic Flame split into thousands, either rushing forward as fire birds or transforming into a net of fire to intercept, accurately colliding with every snake shadow.

At the same time, Soul Power condensed on her fingertips, and an invisible “Soul Hand Seal” silently attacked Medusa’s Sea of Consciousness.

”Tricks of a minor skill!”

Medusa let out a cold snort. Her vast Soul Power, though not yet reaching the Spirit Realm, was immensely profound, forcibly shattering Cao Ying’s sneak attack soul technique.

She relied on her Peak Dou Huang Dou Qi.

Using brute force against skill, she forcefully endured the burning of the Blood Spirit Demonic Flame and the soul interference, and a purple light beam condensed to the extreme suddenly shot out!

”Bang!”

The flame defense in front of Cao Ying was forcibly torn apart again, and she was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, a trace of blood finally spilling from the corner of her mouth.

”Take your people and leave immediately.” Medusa floated in mid-air, her purple eyes cold. ”For the sake of the Pill Tower, this Queen will spare your lives.

A Heavenly Flame is not something you can covet.”

She was not afraid of the Pill Tower, but she did not want to bring disaster upon her clan during this critical period of evolution.

If she could successfully evolve to Dou Zong, she would have the means to lead her clan to migrate and hide.

Cao Ying stabilized her figure, wiped the blood from her mouth, but her gaze grew even firmer.

She had promised Shen Wen to guard this place; how could she retreat easily?

Disappointing him... was absolutely impossible!

”I said, you are the one who should scram!”

Without the slightest hesitation, Cao Ying flipped her jade hand, and a Pill the size of a longan, emitting immense energy, appeared in her palm.

Huangji Pill!

She tilted her head back and swallowed it.

As the Pill entered her abdomen, it was like a volcano had erupted inside her body!

Violent energy instantly swept through her limbs and bones.

Cao Ying’s aura surged wildly at a visible speed, directly breaking through the barrier from Peak Five-Star Dou Huang and stepping into the Six-Star Dou Huang level!

The Blood Spirit Demonic Flame coiling around her body became even more scorching and violent.
