Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 339 The Baptism of the Serpent People

The potential is quite good. Xiao Yan has always recognized the potential of the Strange Flame, and now that he has personally witnessed its attack after it took human form, it is almost exactly as he had imagined.

Although the girl had not learned any martial arts techniques or fighting skills and relied solely on instinct to wield the sword, she was already extraordinary.

The azure light rushed towards Xiao Yan with great speed, and the force carried by the sword's edge made his black hair dance wildly, like willow catkins in a gale.

Just as the sword tip was about to pierce Xiao Yan's sword, Xiao Yan finally made a move!

Suddenly, Xiao Yan raised his left arm and easily caught the sharp sword blade with two fingers, as if he were catching a light feather.

Xiao Yan chuckled and said, "With this much strength, you're still quite far from what you want."

"You!" Xiao Yan's laughter reached the girl's ears like the most merciless mockery. She used both hands and exerted all her strength, but even though her pretty face turned red, she still couldn't budge him in the slightest.

"Don't be so angry." Xiao Yan loosened his grip slightly, and the girl who had been pulling the sword with all her might immediately staggered back more than ten steps.

Xiao Yan stood with his hands behind his back: "Actually, you should thank me."

"Thank you?" The girl, having regained her balance, seemed to have heard the funniest joke.

Xiao Yan nodded affirmatively: "If it weren't for me, you don't know how much longer you would have stayed in this magma world, let alone have your current appearance and strength."

The girl was slightly taken aback. What Xiao Yan, this human, said was true. If it weren't for him, she would indeed need to accumulate countless years to leave the magma world.

However, the girl suddenly realized something, and like an angry little mother cat, she exclaimed, "What's the difference between before and now? Whether I'm in a lava world or here, isn't it all the same?!"

Xiao Yan quietly approached the girl and gently patted her head: "If you want to know the difference, then cultivate it to its fullest potential, mastering what I gave you."

As Xiao Yan gently stroked her warm and strong hand, the anger in the girl's heart seemed to be instantly blown away by a gentle spring breeze, replaced by an indescribable sense of comfort that made her feel extremely at ease and happy.

By condensing various different flames, constantly changing his cultivation techniques, and continuously practicing, Xiao Yan developed an extremely strong affinity for different flames.

The girl shook off Xiao Yan's large hand, her delicate face flushed, and stubbornly said, "Who wants to cultivate something given to them by a human like you!"

"If you stay here quietly, you won't change much. Cultivating my techniques won't worsen your current situation; in fact, it might even allow you to withstand a few more moves from me." Xiao Yan laughed heartily, and the figure formed from his soul power suddenly dissipated.

"Xiao Yan..." the girl murmured, standing quietly in place thinking for a long time before speaking again, "I'll try your stuff."

She took a deep breath, cleared her mind of all distractions, and carefully read through what Xiao Yan had instilled in her mind before entering a meditative state.

Upon observing the girl's movements, Xiao Yan's lips curled up slightly; in truth, he was still holding back.

Since most of the strange flames are condensed from his battle qi, his strength will be greatly reduced when these strange flames become independent entities.

The Azure Lotus Creation Scripture has addressed these drawbacks to some extent, but it still cannot fully connect the energies of all the different flames and unleash their full potential.

Cultivating each type of strange fire through various techniques not only increases its own strength.

Even if the efficiency of the connection is still not high, the strength of the strange fire itself will be further guaranteed after its power increases.

After his cultivation of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame was on track, Xiao Yan focused more on other strange flames.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is a purely wild, unique flame, so its special nature is understandable.

If all other strange flames were like the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, Xiao Yan would be in serious trouble.

He wanted all the different flames to be able to cultivate properly after they gained sentience.

The cultivation of the Azure Lotus Creation Scripture was in full swing. After recovering, Medusa finally left the palace to face the challenges she would face after her evolution.

The baptism of the Serpent People!

After passing through several quiet roads, Queen Medusa arrived at an ancient altar after a while.

The altar stood in a dark, dense forest, surrounded by the damp scent of earth and the faint smell of decaying leaves. Its base was constructed of massive black stones, their surfaces bearing the marks of time, giving it an air of antiquity and mystery.

Medusa stopped before the altar, a hint of solemnity appearing on her face.

According to the rules of the Snake People, the chieftain of the Snake People is a virgin before he can transform into a human. After transforming, he must undergo a baptism at the clan's altar before he can have sexual relations with a human.

Although she did not refuse, the outcome was completely unexpected before everything happened.

After letting out a slight sigh of relief, Medusa slowly pushed open the altar door and walked inside.

Regardless of the elders' reactions, the current outcome is good.

At the center of the altar stands a huge stone pillar, carved with intricate serpentine patterns. Each serpent is so lifelike that it seems ready to leap off the pillar at any moment.

At the top of the stone pillar is a crystal-clear gemstone, which emits a soft light that illuminates every corner of the altar.

Around the altar, various strange plants grow, their leaves are oddly shaped, colorful, and emit a faint fluorescent glow.

These plants complement the altar, adding to the mystery and eeriness.

"Your Majesty." The old women standing at the four corners of the altar had already sensed it, but they were all somewhat surprised to see Medusa walk in in human form.

"Four elders, let's begin," Medusa said calmly.

The four old women exchanged a glance, a hint of determination and solemnity flashing in their eyes. They slowly extended their withered fingers and began to chant incantations simultaneously, their voices low and mysterious, as if communicating with some unseen being.

As they chanted, four chilling auras suddenly rose from several corners of the altar and hovered above it.

These auras gradually condensed into substance, transforming into four different liquids that slowly dripped down onto Medusa's body.

Medusa's body trembled under the cold baptism, feeling somewhat incredulous.

This baptism of the snake-people can only be experienced by the clan leader after he has taken human form, and there are no records of it in any books.

After the liquid seeped into her skin, Medusa felt her body become exceptionally relaxed and more in sync with the Devouring Python's body.

As the altar returned to calm, the oldest woman there stared in astonishment at Medusa's lower abdomen: "Your Majesty, you!"
