Among all the heavens, I, Xiao Yan, did not use any cheat codes.

Chapter 88 Your Majesty, Please Don't Have a Fever

A resounding thud, like the booming of a great bell, echoed as Xiao Yan's heart pounded, causing the entire sea of ​​magma to pulsate.

When the body's Qi and blood reach their peak, a light shines from the acupoints at the heart, and boundless divine power continuously surges from the Dao Palace, circulating within the body in a never-ending cycle.

With the completion of the Divine Treasury of the Heart and the opening of the Heart Aperture, Xiao Yan's blood became even more divine. He completely devoured the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame without wasting a single drop, and directly rushed into the second level of the Dao Palace.

Generally speaking, the order of opening the Dao Palace is usually either in accordance with the Five Elements or in reverse order. However, in reality, there is no fixed order for opening the Dao Palace. Therefore, Xiao Yan chose the Liver Divine Treasury for his second Dao Palace. The Liver belongs to Wood, regulates Qi, and is Yin in body but Yang in function.

The moment they stepped into the second level of the Dao Palace, the boundless sea of ​​fire phenomenon reappeared, and the golden lotus swayed, but with a newfound resilience and vitality.

The fire element diffused with a touch of wood element's life force, and the two Dao Palaces connected, making the energy within Xiao Yan's body increasingly powerful.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, which had been completely integrated into Xiao Yan's origin, flew away from his dantian and merged into the Divine Treasury of his liver.

From within the divine essence of the liver, a towering blue lotus rose, its abundant vitality reaching its peak before suddenly igniting, from which a deity manifested.

He wore a cyan-gold imperial robe, a lotus-shaped imperial crown, and cyan-red flame patterns along the edges of his robe. A thin cyan-purple snake hung from each of his ears, and he stood on a Bifang (a mythical creature).

"If I become the Green Emperor in the future, I will make peach blossoms bloom everywhere."

Opening his eyes, Xiao Yan laughed loudly. When he went to the Shrouding Heaven again, he really had to get some of the Demon's Essence Blood.

If the Great Moon could seize the Imperial Weapon, then Xiao might not be unable to do the same!

After refining the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, Xiao Yan's natal flame gained many more characteristics.

This fire has the meaning of growth and development associated with the element of wood. It is born from a lotus platform in the magma underground, containing the vitality of life from nothingness, but its main body is composed of the elements of earth and fire.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire has the effects of nourishing the body, tempering the meridians, and even calming the mind and spirit.

Moreover, it contains a trace of non-renewable essence of wood energy, possessing immense vitality, but it is a one-time consumable.

Xiao Yan made full use of this point, carefully comprehending the meaning of growth within it, and completely absorbing and refining it.

In addition, Xiao Yan gained a new understanding of the methods of gathering fire to form pills and condensing fire into form after completely refining the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. Combining this with what he had learned before, he made further progress in the art of weapon crafting.

"I take back what I said earlier. Using the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame for evolution is not a matter of certain death, but rather a matter of nine out of ten chances of survival."

Xiao Yan shook his head. Judging from that trace of irreplaceable vitality and the image of growth, if Queen Medusa really used this thing to temper her body, although it was still hard roasting, at least she would have gained a little more vitality.

It's still a gamble with your life.

With a thought, Xiao Yan assigned the God of the Liver a task of researching alchemy. He then brought the God of the Liver to the Heavenly Cauldron Black Demon. Together with the two gods, Xiao Yan took out all the few medicinal herbs he had on him. He was going to try to refine a sixth-grade pill independently.

Soon, he failed to refine pills twice. However, unlike others who would be ruined if their furnaces exploded, Xiao Yan solidified the pills before they exploded, turning them into Fire Lotus Pills that were purely for attack. Unlike regular Fire Lotus Pills, these pills that were solidified before the furnace exploded usually had strange and unusual special effects.

Considering that both alchemy attempts were made using the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame and the Myriad Beast Spirit Flame, and that Xiao Yan failed while trying to perform some fancy tricks, the special effects of this pill are likely aimed at some kind of primal desire.

It was a little sinister, but Xiao Yan didn't care at all. Whoever got hit by that explosion would suffer a lot.

After two wasteful attempts and a lot of materials, Xiao Yan decided to refine the material methodically for the third time. He used the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire as the main ingredient, and also added the effects of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire in nourishing the meridians, calming the mind, and even tempering the spirit and enlightening the mind.

The new version of the Blood Coagulation Pill is far more powerful than before, but it is still not enough to directly transform Medusa.

After putting away the cauldron, the two deities returned to their bodies and frantically assigned them more tasks. Xiao Yan put away a newly made pill before turning to look at Medusa behind him.

It was fine if he didn't look, but as soon as he did, Xiao Yan was stunned. Why did he feel that Medusa was even more charming and alluring than before?

"It's so hot~" Medusa opened her eyes, her beautiful eyes filled with spring, her tongue slightly sticking out. The changes in her body made her unable to help but let out a soft moan, but she quickly suppressed those strange pleasures.

Xiao Yan scratched his head, flicked his finger, and sent the jade bottle flying. As he spoke, he turned around and took the lotus platform away.

"There's no need to evolve here. You can go back and prepare. I'll come to the Snake People's Holy City to find you in a few days. You can refine this pill first to activate your bloodline. It will be more effective then."

After Xiao Yan finished packing, he saw Medusa looking at him with a fiery gaze without the slightest hesitation. Her long tongue darted out, licking the mouth of the medicine bottle. She then stuck her tongue into the bottle, rolled up a pill, and swallowed it. The pleasurable sensation of her blood being stimulated was somewhat addictive for Medusa, but she also felt an extraordinary emptiness within her body.

She needs more to satisfy herself.

grunt.

Xiao Yan always felt that Medusa was hinting at something to him, but he had no evidence.

He simply stepped forward and placed his large hand on Medusa's slightly reddened abdomen. Streams of flames flowed through the connection between their skin and into Medusa's body, assisting her in refining the elixir.

Moreover, the moment they made contact, Medusa couldn't help but tremble all over, and couldn't help but bring her nose close to Xiao Yan's chest.

This extremely masculine aura, like the sun in the sky, is dazzling and nourishes all things.

Absorbing Xiao Yan's dissipated blood and energy, Medusa's eyes shone even brighter as her bloodline underwent a transformation. She couldn't imagine how powerful the effects would be if she consumed Xiao Yan, given that mere contact could produce such an effect.

"Don't let desire overwhelm reason." Xiao Yan curled his lips, pointed his index finger, and his thought directly struck Medusa's brow, calming her turbulent emotions. He even added a touch of Buddhist philosophy that all phenomena are illusory.

Xiao Yan truly hadn't expected Medusa to be affected like this. As a peak Dou Huang, and a seductive snake woman at that, her forte was stirring up her primal instincts through blood and qi. So he used all his strength to unleash the power of the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, maximizing the effect but neglecting the negative consequences. He thought it wouldn't be a big deal, but it seems his opponent isn't very good at this.

However, Xiao Yan felt that the other party was caught off guard. After a few days of recuperation, when he evolved again, he would be careful and there would be no problem.

Realizing that Queen Medusa had regained consciousness and was immersed in the transformation of her bloodline, he initially intended to capture her directly from a distance, but upon sensing her resistance, he picked her up and flew upwards.

In the desert, several figures with wings flapping rapidly behind them flew over at high speed.

Judging from their aura, they were all Dou Huangs.

These were the old elders of the Snake-People tribe, who were not to be easily mobilized, who came to assist Queen Medusa in seizing the Strange Fire.

Sensing the Queen's presence rising from the ground, they were immediately taken aback. However, when they actually saw Medusa's appearance...

Then, they were dumbfounded.

"this----"

The elder's eyes twitched violently.

Before them appeared a young man, his feet treading on the void, as dazzling as the sun.

Medusa, on the other hand, coiled herself around Xiao Yan without any manners, her thick snake tail tightening its grip.

Grand Elder:

...

"Hey, hey, hey, I shouldn't have hugged you. Stop nudging me, Your Majesty." Xiao Yan's eyes twitched wildly. After trying to untangle himself but failing, he turned into flames and disappeared. A large hand lifted Medusa up and handed her to the elders.

The four elders: "————"

After glancing at the alluring Queen, then at Xiao Yan with his exceptionally clear eyes, and sensing the overwhelming aura emanating from Xiao Yan's casual move that they could not withstand, the elders were utterly dumbfounded.

Isn't something a little off about how things are going?
