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

Danlei”Stubborn fool!” Medusa’s eyes turned completely cold.

Just then.

Dan Chen, who had been nervously watching the battle from the side, also moved.

Although she was timid, seeing Cao Ying injured and their deep sisterly bond, she couldn’t care less about anything else.

A gentle yet not to be underestimated Dou Qi erupted.

She was also a Dou Huang, and a strange soul fluctuation accompanied her own flame Dou Qi.

It transformed into a dazzling stream of light, cooperating with Cao Ying’s renewed offensive, and together they enveloped Medusa!

Cao Ying took the main attack, her Blood Spirit Demonic Flame transforming into a giant python roaring and striking.

Dan Chen provided support, her soul interference and flame assault complementing each other.

The combined power of the two instantly doubled, forcing Medusa, who had gained a slight upper hand due to Cao Ying’s breakthrough and was about to completely defeat her, to defend herself!

”You... are courting death!” Medusa was thoroughly enraged.

She had already given them a chance; since they insisted on seeking death, she wouldn’t be blamed for being ruthless!

If Cao Ying and the other woman escaped and attracted the experts of the Pill Tower, the consequences would be unimaginable.

It would be better to eliminate future troubles here. As long as she successfully evolved and advanced to Dou Zong, the world was vast, and she would find a place to belong!

”Roar—!”

A sharp serpent’s cry echoed through the desert. Medusa’s body suddenly swelled, and in a dazzling purple light, she revealed her gigantic true form.

A Purple Nether Flame Snake, over ten zhang long!

Its snake eyes were cold and merciless, and a terrifying pressure crushed down like a tsunami, far surpassing before!

The Purple Nether Flame Snake’s giant tail swept across, carrying the power to shatter mountains and crack stones, directly destroying the flame and soul defenses jointly constructed by Cao Ying and Dan Chen!

”Puff!” ”Puff!”

The two women simultaneously spat blood and flew backward, their auras instantly weak. Facing Medusa, who had fully unleashed her true form.

Even with their combined efforts, they were still no match.

Killing intent was fully revealed in Medusa’s snake eyes. Her giant mouth opened, and a purple energy breath, capable of annihilating everything, began to condense, aimed at Cao Ying and Dan Chen, who were no longer able to fight.

This strike was determined to turn the two women, along with the members of the two mercenary groups below, into ashes!

Just at this critical moment—

”Boom!”

A dull but seemingly earth-shattering roar suddenly came from the direction of Stone Desert City.

Immediately after, everyone involuntarily looked up at the sky.

Above Stone Desert City.

Heaven and Earth energy violently surged, and dark clouds gathered at a visible speed, forming a thick thundercloud covering half the sky in the blink of an eye!

Within the thundercloud, silver serpents danced wildly, and terrifying lightning power frantically condensed, emitting a heart-pounding roar!

Pill Lightning! And it was a Pill Lightning of extremely high quality!

This earth-shattering phenomenon instantly attracted Medusa’s full attention.

Medusa’s cold snake eyes stared fixedly at the churning thundercloud above Stone Desert City. The destructive energy contained within it made even her feel a tremor of fear.

A seventh-grade pill!

And it was an extremely high-quality seventh-grade pill!

This thought exploded in her mind like a thunderclap.

To attract such Pill Lightning, the Alchemist’s alchemy skills had already reached a high level.

She instantly understood that Cao Ying and the others had not come alone.

Behind them was an Alchemist capable of refining seventh-grade pills!

Moreover, this person was in the nearby Stone Desert City, and the pill was about to be formed!

It wasn’t these two looking for the Strange Fire, it was the person in Stone Desert City!

And more importantly, the Pill Lightning of a seventh-grade pill was absolutely not something a Dou Huang could contend with; it would require at least a Five-Star Dou Zong level of strength to safely resist!

What did this mean?

It meant that within Stone Desert City, there was very likely a hidden Dou Zong!

Perhaps it was the Alchemist’s protector, or perhaps an elder from their sect.

No matter the situation, if she killed these two geniuses from the Pill Tower now.

It would be tantamount to offending a Seventh-Rank Alchemist and at least a Five-Star Dou Zong simultaneously, possibly even incurring the Pill Tower’s wrath.

At that time, the entire Snake-People Clan would face utter destruction!

A huge sense of crisis made the killing intent in Medusa’s heart recede like a tide, replaced by deep apprehension and deliberation.

The killing intent that had locked onto Cao Ying and Dan Chen had largely dissipated.

Medusa transformed back into her human body with a snake tail, her face fluctuating between expressions of uncertainty.

As she pondered how to gracefully end this conflict, neither showing weakness nor endangering the Snake-People Clan—

”Whoosh!”

A sharp whooshing sound came from the direction of Stone Desert City!

A figure, still faintly imbued with the energy fluctuations from alchemy, was seen.

Its Dou Qi wings vibrated violently, soaring into the sky at an astonishing speed, and without hesitation, it shot directly towards the terrifying Pill Lightning thundercloud!

Dou Qi wings?

A Dou Huang?!

Not a Dou Zong expert controlling space for aerial movement!

Medusa’s pupils suddenly contracted, filled with disbelief.

An absurd and crazy thought arose in her mind: Could it be that this fellow who refined a seventh-grade pill didn’t know the horror of seventh-grade pill Lightning?

Or... was he actually deluding himself into thinking he could, as a Dou Huang, withstand this Heaven and Earth might that was enough to severely injure or even kill a low-star Dou Zong?

After the shock, a hint of mockery and a cold smile appeared in Medusa’s eyes.

She looked at Cao Ying, whose face was pale but whose eyes were fixed on that figure, and scoffed:

”Hmph! Do you people from the Pill Tower not even have this basic common sense?

seventh-grade pill Lightning, its power is comparable to a full-strength attack from a Five-Star Dou Zong!

He’s just a Dou Huang, rushing up so recklessly. Is he trying to die?”

Cao Ying and Dan Chen naturally knew the terror of seventh-grade pill Lightning.

Cao Ying pursed her red lips, her beautiful eyes filled with undisguised worry, but she remembered Shen Wen’s previous instructions and his always unexpected methods.

She forced herself to remain calm and said coldly, ”He’s just a Dou Huang from a remote place? How could he understand the methods of us geniuses from the Pill Tower?”

Medusa seemed to have heard the biggest joke, her snake tail swayed slightly, and her tone became even colder, ”Truly, ignorance is bliss!

This King wants to see how he gets struck by this Pill Lightning and turns into dust!”

However, before she finished speaking.

The scene that unfolded next.

Made all her mockery and cold smiles freeze on her face, turning into unparalleled horror!

Shen Wen, who had soared into the sky, faced the massive lightning bolt that roared down like a silver giant dragon.

He actually showed no signs of using any Dou Technique!

He hovered beneath the thundercloud, his Dou Qi wings shining brightly in the lightning’s reflection. Facing that world-destroying silver pillar of light.

Not only did he not evade, but he suddenly spread his arms, and a blue light surged around him, faintly revealing blue dragon patterns. A wild, domineering aura shot into the sky!

”Boom—!!!”

The thick Pill Lightning struck Shen Wen squarely!

The blinding lightning instantly engulfed him, turning into a violently flashing ball of lightning in mid-air.

Violent lightning power surged wildly around his body like countless silver serpents!

Cao Ying and Dan Chen’s hearts instantly leaped to their throats, and Qing Lin was so scared she covered her small mouth.

Medusa’s huge snake eyes widened, her cold vertical pupils filled with incomprehensible shock.

She could clearly feel the destructive energy contained within that Pill Lightning; it was a power that made even her feel threatened!

Yet, within the raging lightning, the scene she had anticipated of Shen Wen being scorched to a crisp and utterly annihilated did not occur.

On the contrary, although the ball of lightning was violent, it seemed to be constrained by an invisible force and did not fully erupt.

Faintly visible, the figure at the center of the lightning, though trembling slightly, remained upright.

The blue dragon patterns on his body, under the baptism of the lightning, seemed to become clearer and more solid!

”This... how is this possible?!”

Medusa couldn’t help but murmur in disbelief.
