Chapter 268 Sword Draw and Slash!
Upon hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh.

He took out the jade artifact and carried away all the densely packed lotus roots in front of him.

After leaving the lava river, Su Haoming and Yun Ye landed on the shore, with the corpse of a fire spirit snake lying beside them and a snake meat barbecue grill that had been set up at some point in front of them.

His most trusted little Zi was squatting beside the two of them, licking her lips and staring intently at the roasted meat.

Noticing the movement coming from the lava river, Su Haoming's expression shifted slightly. He turned his head and looked over, his eyes immediately lighting up.

"You've got the strange fire?"

"Got it!"

Xiao Yan nodded, suppressing his excitement, then looked at the two of them with some confusion and asked, "What's going on with you two?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I just accidentally killed a few fire spirit snakes. Old Yun figured he might as well take this opportunity to taste the snake meat since he was just killing some time."

At this point, Su Haoming paused, then said with some regret, "It's a pity that this snake meat has too high fire resistance; no matter how you roast it with ordinary fire, it won't cook through—how about trying the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire instead?"

Xiao Yan: "..."

"just kidding."

Su Haoming smiled and stood up, asking, "When do you plan to devour the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame?"

Xiao Yan thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "No rush, we're still missing one ingredient for the pill. In any case, let's get out of here first!"

Su Haoming nodded, and Yun Ye, who was next to him, also stood up. With a flick of his sleeve, he put the huge corpse of the Fire Spirit Serpent into his storage ring, leaving Xiao Zi squatting on the spot with a regretful look on her face.

Just then, a message from He Jingfeng came through the chat group, indicating that there seemed to be some unusual activity on the surface.

The three exchanged a glance, then immediately climbed onto Xiao Zi's back and flew swiftly back to the passage they had come from.

……

……

Time goes back to a while ago.

Amidst the endless yellow sand, a graceful figure streaked through the air at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

The figure only slowed down and came to a stop when it was close to the desert, eventually hovering in the air above the desert.

Looking down, the figure was clearly a beautiful, almost bewitching, alien woman.

She has exquisite and beautiful features, and her long black hair is casually draped down from her fragrant shoulders, falling to her slender waist.

Her graceful figure was wrapped in a purple brocade robe, highlighting her proud and voluptuous curves.

Following the curve of the waist downwards, one can see a purple snake tail hanging down from the end of the purple brocade robe, lazily and casually sweeping in mid-air.

Such inhuman characteristics, if they were on someone else, would certainly be considered strange and terrifying.

But when placed on this alien woman in the air, there was an indescribable allure and seduction, which seemed to arouse desire in the opposite sex far more than two long, fair legs.

At this moment, the alluring alien woman was staring intently at the desert below.

Upon seeing the dark cave revealed in the desert, a look of joy and excitement immediately appeared in her pale purple eyes.

Without a doubt, this woman with the purple snake tail is Queen Medusa in this timeline!
She has been stuck at the peak of Douhuang for many years now, and if she doesn't have the right opportunity, it will probably be a long time before she can advance to Douzong.

This slow progress greatly annoyed Queen Medusa, so she set her sights on the ancient evolutionary methods of the snake people.

However, this ancient method of evolution has a strict condition: it requires the use of a different kind of fire to purify the bloodline of the accompanying soul in order to activate its potential and evolve into a more powerful ancient creature.

In her search for the strange fire, Queen Medusa searched almost the entire Tagor Desert.

But it wasn't until recently that she finally sensed a hint of the strange fire erupting.

"This is it!"

Queen Medusa gazed intently at the dark cave below.

Without any hesitation, she immediately flapped her wings and sped towards the cave.

"call out--"

But before she could land, a dazzling sword light ripped through the sky and shot upwards.

Medusa was startled by what she saw and quickly stopped in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the sword light.

"who?!"

After dodging the sword light, Medusa suddenly turned her head, her beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent as she looked in the direction from which the sword light had come.

On the previously empty desert, a silver-painted hovercar slowly emerged from the air.

Beside the hovercar, a young man in a tight-fitting outfit held a sheathed longsword and leaned against the silver car door, his dark eyes calmly gazing at Medusa above.

"A treasure that can make one invisible?"

Medusa looked at the young man and the hovercar with suspicion and uncertainty.

The young man met her gaze across the distance and said calmly, "It's optical camouflage."

"..."

Medusa frowned slightly, clearly unaware of the meaning of the word.

The young man sighed, rose from the carriage, and, gripping his sword sheath, lowered his arms, calmly gazing at Medusa.

"This place is an opportunity that my companions and I found after overcoming many hardships. If you have no intention of becoming my enemy, please return the way you came. But if you insist on fighting..."

The young man, or rather Lin Lie, spoke in a cold tone, and gently placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword.

"boom!"

In an instant, Lin Lie's aura changed, and a sharp sword intent soared into the sky, piercing the heavens and firmly locking onto Queen Medusa, who was suspended in the air.

In a daze, the youth who was originally in human form seemed to transform into a sharp sword.

The sharp sword intent seemed to solidify, sweeping outwards. All the yellow sand that came into contact with the sword intent was instantly and silently annihilated into finer dust. Seeing this, Medusa's heart sank.

Although she couldn't discern the young man's exact cultivation level, she could tell from his soaring sword intent that he was definitely at least a Douhuang powerhouse capable of mobilizing the power of heaven and earth!
In a different situation, she certainly wouldn't have offended such a peerless swordsman.

But now that she has clearly sensed the aura of the strange fire, how could she give up the opportunity for advancement just because of some difficulties?

Thinking of this, Medusa gritted her teeth and said coldly, "I am the Queen of the Snake People. The entire Tagor Desert belongs to my rule and that of the Snake People. This desert before us is no exception!"

"As for you, not only have you trespassed on our territory, but you also tried to steal my opportunity. Aren't you afraid of incurring the wrath of our people?!"

Lin Lie raised an eyebrow, seemingly somewhat surprised by Medusa's sophistry.

He had seen many of Queen Medusa's domineering side when he read the novel before, but this was the first time he had ever seen such a sophistry-like argument!
"Sharp-tongued and quick-witted..."

Lin Lie shook his head and said calmly, "There's no point in saying more. If you insist on fighting for it, let's see who's the better fighter!"

"Exactly what I want!"

A cold glint flashed in Medusa's eyes, and she immediately moved in a flash, appearing in front of Lin Lie like a ghost.

The next second, a slender, fair hand emitted a strong light and slapped Lin Lie's chest with what seemed like a slow but actually fast motion.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, terrifying energy erupted and slammed solidly into the figure.

Streaks of energy swept outwards like a whirlwind, instantly clearing away the yellow sand within a radius of tens of meters.

A rumbling tremor came from the earth, and cracks spread wildly like a spider web, constantly swallowing up the remaining sand on the ground.

Even so, Queen Medusa showed no joy whatsoever. Instead, her expression changed drastically, and she instantly retreated a hundred meters, her eyes searching the ground below with suspicion and uncertainty.

Soon, she spotted a second figure not far away.

At the same time, as the smoke and dust dissipated, 'Lin Lie', who had been standing in place, gradually disappeared, leaving only a fleeting afterimage!
"So fast!"

Medusa's expression turned extremely solemn.

Lin Lie lowered his arms and said calmly:

"one move."

"Take one of my moves, and I'll spare your life!"

As he spoke, he slowly spread his feet apart, bent his knees slightly, placed his left hand on the white scabbard at his waist, and rested his right hand on the hilt of the sword, assuming the classic sword-drawing posture.

In an instant, streaks of silver [Selfless Sword Qi] rose from Lin Lie's body.

The terrifying sword intent seemed to have a mind of its own, locking onto Medusa in front of it.

Danger! !
will die! !
Medusa's pupils contracted sharply, alarm sirens blared in her mind, and without hesitation, she flapped her wings and turned to fly towards the horizon.

Just as she soared into the sky, a faint voice came from below, as if demanding her life.

"Draw your sword—and slash!"

laugh--

Before he finished speaking, a silver streak detached from the jade-like Fuxi Sword.

The extremely sharp silver sword energy sliced ​​through the air almost silently, instantly expanding into a silver arc about a hundred meters long, and soaring into the sky at a speed far exceeding the speed of sound.

In an instant, the space above was cleaved by the silver sword light, revealing a long and dark spatial rift.

A deadly sense of crisis came from behind her. Queen Medusa gritted her teeth and frantically circulated her battle qi. Without daring to look back, she rushed forward.

Finally, the sword light pierced the air, passing by Queen Medusa a few meters behind her.

Along the way, space was torn apart, clouds were ripped apart, and the entire sky seemed to be cleaved by this sword, leaving a narrow sword mark about a kilometer long between the clouds!
"They finally scared them away..."

On the ground, Lin Lie loosened his grip on the sword hilt, lowered his arm, and breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Medusa flee into the sky.

He knew about the relationship between Xiao Yan and Medusa, so he never intended to kill them.

Now that his opponent has given up under his sword strike, he has achieved his goal...

Just then, a whooshing sound came from the cave. Lin Lie turned his head and saw a figure engulfed in blue flames soaring into the sky from the dark cave and crashing down in front of him.

"Old He, you're pretty quick!"

Lin Lie greeted him with a smile.

He Jingfeng stood up, glanced at the exaggerated scene in the sky, and couldn't help but show a strange expression.

"Have we encountered the Soul Palace?"

"No, it's just Medusa..."

Lin Lie answered honestly and told He Jingfeng what had just happened.

After listening, He Jingfeng smirked and said irritably, "Then why are you using so much force? Aren't you afraid that you might accidentally kill our future sister-in-law?"

Lin Lie laughed and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

You'd better know your limits!

He Jingfeng scoffed, then frowned and said, "However, scaring Medusa away like this might not be a good thing. This woman isn't so easily given up; she might cause some other trouble..."

Lin Lie asked in surprise, "You mean, she dares to come back?"

He Jingfeng glanced at him and said, "If you had injured her, she definitely wouldn't have dared to. But since you neither hurt her nor made any probing attacks, it's hard to guarantee that she won't make some foolish guesses."

"For example, this attack has already exhausted your strength..."

Lin Lie said, both amused and exasperated, "That's just too stupid!"

He Jingfeng thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "In any case, let's contact Xiao Yan and the others first!"
