I am a mortal who has achieved enlightenment through burning my secrets

Chapter 329 Spiritual Beast
Xiao Wuji timed it perfectly; the instant Queen Medusa arrived, Xiao Wuji also completed his final breakthrough, reaching the level of a one-star Dou Wang.

Queen Medusa was overjoyed upon seeing the enormous lotus throne, but upon seeing Xiao Wuji sitting cross-legged on it, she suddenly frowned. Judging from the still-undisturbed fluctuations of his fighting spirit, it must be this person who refined the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

"Hand over the strange fire, and I'll spare your life!" Queen Medusa's domineering arrogance was on full display at this moment.

Looking at Queen Medusa's beautiful face, elegant figure, noble temperament, and disdainful expression, Xiao Wuji couldn't help but nod inwardly. Such beauty should rightfully belong to him.

"I have already refined the strange fire, so you'd better leave quickly! Otherwise, if you anger me, the consequences will be far beyond what a mere Dou Huang like you can afford."

Xiao Wuji's attitude was extremely arrogant, all to provoke Medusa into attacking him, so that he could then easily subdue her. Medusa's arrogance quickly led him into the trap.

"If you don't hand it over, you die!"

Medusa raised her hand and unleashed a purple snake-shaped aura at Xiao Wuji. Snake-people are generally characterized by yin and cold attributes, but Medusa's companion snake spirit is the Purple Nether Flame Snake, which grants her a certain fire attribute, allowing her to exert considerable strength even in this sea of ​​lava and fire.

Xiao Wuji merely smiled slightly, and without any visible movement from him, the underground magma began to surge violently. Streams of magma surged toward Medusa like cannons, shattering the purple serpentine battle aura.

"Beautiful snake, from the moment I refined the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, this magma has been my domain, and you actually dared to attempt to attack me within my domain. You are truly overestimating yourself!"

Xiao Wuji gave Medusa a perfect demonstration of what it means for a petty person to achieve success, perfectly portraying the image of an arrogant young master.

"court death!!"

Medusa used her fighting skills to confront the magma currents head-on, and attacked Xiao Wuji with her purple snake sword in hand.

In response, Xiao Wuji directly avoided fighting and relied on his agility to move around the area, though he looked somewhat disheveled.

"You beautiful snake, you dare to fight me? I'll not only capture you and use you as a bed warmer, but I'll also completely destroy your tribe!"

At this moment, Xiao Wuji acted like a spoiled young master, which aroused Queen Medusa's murderous intent, and the sword in her hand also burst forth with even greater power.

Xiao Wuji was "accidentally" cut off a piece of his clothes, and blood trickled from his skin. He was "enraged".

"You're finished! You dare to hurt me? You'll have nowhere to go, neither in heaven nor on earth! Dragon Phoenix Cauldron, bring it out!"

A cauldron the size of a house suddenly appeared in front of Medusa, blocking her incoming sword strike.

"Ancient Celestial Phoenix, capture her for me!"

As Xiao Wuji channeled his fighting spirit, the ancient phoenix patterns on the Dragon Phoenix Cauldron suddenly came to life, and a desolate aura inherited from ancient times quietly spread out. Under this aura, the fighting spirit circulating within Medusa's body suddenly became extremely blocked.

The remnant soul of the ancient Heavenly Phoenix was refined into a weapon spirit by Xiao Wuji using a special weapon-refining method. With the help of the great array in the cauldron, it can also exert the strength of a high-level Dou Zun.

Moreover, the bloodline aura of the two great monster kings can naturally suppress the bloodline of most monsters. Under the cover of this aura, Queen Medusa's strength could not even be exerted by one-tenth of its original strength.

This is the drawback of the Warcraft bloodline. A powerful bloodline can make them cultivate very quickly in the early stages, but when they encounter an even more powerful bloodline, they will become weak and helpless. After the bloodline potential is exhausted, it will become extremely difficult to break through the bottleneck.

Queen Medusa now possesses both of these traits. Not only is it difficult for her cultivation level to break through, but it's also extremely difficult for her strength to improve.

Medusa was a decisive person; seeing the situation was unfavorable, she turned and fled. However, the atmosphere had already been built up to this point, so how could Xiao Wuji let her escape? The Ancient Heavenly Phoenix simply reached out and grabbed her across space, then tossed her into the cauldron to suppress her.

The environment inside the cauldron was even more terrifying. The bloodline aura emanating from two supreme magical beasts rendered Medusa's fighting spirit almost immobile. Furthermore, four chains extended from the space, binding her hands and feet, leaving her lying on the ground unable to move.

Excited after capturing Medusa, Xiao Wuji jumped into the cauldron.

Xiao Wuji used a sword aura to slice through Medusa's lower body clothing, easily finding Medusa's weak point.

"I heard that male snakes have two whips, but you only have one here! Doesn't it feel bloated?"

Xiao Wuji took off his shoes, stepped on Medusa's weak spot, and looked down at Queen Medusa with a mocking expression:

"I'll give you a chance to live. If you serve me well, I'll spare your life!"

Medusa gritted her teeth and said, "Don't even think about it. If you dare to do anything reckless, I'll..."

"Self-destruct? Self-destruct? Or suicide? Do you think you still have that chance?" Xiao Wuji interrupted Queen Medusa before he could speak, his foot slowly moving from her weak spot to her chest, pressing down on her until she could hardly breathe.

"You can't even mobilize your battle aura, so there's no way you can self-destruct!"

"And you've already piqued my interest. If you can't satisfy me, I'll go on a killing spree among the snake people, and then keep a few beautiful snake women for myself!"

"Hehe, I'm not afraid to tell you, with those two remnant souls on the Dragon-Phoenix Cauldron, I can unleash the power of a high-level Dou Zun. Wiping out the Snake-People race would be a piece of cake. I suppose you wouldn't want to see your people suffer heavy casualties, would you?"

With Xiao Wuji holding her vulnerable spot, Medusa began to shed tears of humiliation and resentment.

A day later, Medusa had grown a lot, and Xiao Wuji's arrogance had been greatly diminished.

However, Xiao Wuji ultimately prevailed, leaving a mark of beast-taming essence on Medusa's soul.

"From now on, you will be my spirit beast!"

Because of her beast-taming skills, Medusa felt an inexplicable closeness to Xiao Wuji, yet she always maintained her last shred of rationality.

But Xiao Wuji's next words made Medusa lose her composure!
"Come on, take me to visit your snake-people tribe!"

Medusa said coldly, "Human, I am the only one who has done wrong; it has nothing to do with my tribe!"

"Beautiful snake, what are you thinking? Do you think I'm such a shallow person!"

Xiao Wuji tapped Medusa on the head, feigning ignorance, and said, "I've heard that your snake-people tribe has an exceptionally cold and beautiful appearance. I want to test who is better between you and her!"
