The scorching red energy giant serpent twisted its body and rapidly spiraled down. The powerful air pressure caused the yellow sand to sweep up and fill the sky. For a time, the surroundings fell into a dim world.
Just as the Serpent Seal hit Hai Bo Dong's body, he suddenly felt a gush of heat erupt from his body uncontrollably.
Hai Bo Dong was greatly surprised. He was an Ice Attribute physique and cultivated an Ice Attribute cultivation method. How could he have this kind of energy that was the complete opposite of a cold feeling?!
The hot flow surged quickly, and in an instant, a layer of brilliant golden energy shield was released from Hai Bo Dong's body surface.
With a hum, the scorching red energy giant serpent was bounced away.
Following that, the golden energy shield's light became more and more intense.
And the incomparably ferocious scorching red energy giant serpent, which was still erupting with terrifying immense force and charging forward, melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a snowflake, upon contact with the golden energy shield.
Medusa's enchanting face now put away its smile. The Serpent Seal was one of her more important attack methods.
Although it was not always as effective as when she sealed Hai Bo Dong before, once someone was hit by it, it was definitely not a pleasant experience.
Medusa's beautiful eyes stared at the gradually shrinking energy shield on Hai Bo Dong's body. She was very surprised.
The Serpent Seal was used on the same person twice. Even if Hai Bo Dong's strength had improved, it should not have been completely ineffective.
After the impact, Xiao Yan landed steadily and let go of the lapel he was holding on Hai Bo Dong. "Elder Hai, my apologies."
"It's just a mere seal. Even if you were to be hit by it again, it would only be a matter of a snap of the fingers to undo it," Xiao Yan said with a relaxed smile, without any exaggeration.
He had personally experienced the sealing technique before, thus mastering this type of secret technique and then deriving many exquisite uses from it.
He was no stranger to undoing seals, especially with the addition of the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame in his body.
Hai Bo Dong suddenly woke up from his daze. He did an internal inspection of the vast Dou Qi in his body and was greatly shocked.
"What is going on? That golden shield..." Hai Bo Dong turned his head to look at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan seemed to have known about this change in him from the beginning.
Xiao Yan said slowly, "It's one of the bonus effects of the pill I refined before. The medicinal power can form a resistance to seals in your body."
"So that's how it is," Hai Bo Dong nodded heavily. Under his calm exterior, a storm was brewing in his heart.
To break his own seal, he had searched for many years before he found a pill recipe for a seal-breaking pill, the Barrier-Breaking Pill.
The pill was ranked sixth-tier and had the miraculous effect of breaking most seals. After taking it, it could also form a resistance to seals in the body.
It was precisely because he understood the medicinal properties recorded in the pill recipe that Hai Bo Dong felt so shocked.
The golden pill he had taken not only helped him break the seal but also caused his strength to skyrocket, directly breaking through to a two-star Dou Zong.
Even if he were a fool, he would know that the terrifying golden pill was definitely not the Barrier-Breaking Pill recorded in the recipe he had provided.
He did not expect that the medicinal power was so strong that it even had the other effect of the Barrier-Breaking Pill.
The Barrier-Breaking Golden Pill was originally based on the Barrier-Breaking Pill recipe, so it was not surprising that it had all of its effects.
However, Hai Bo Dong probably never even dreamed that after getting the Barrier-Breaking Pill recipe, Xiao Yan would quickly use it to create a seventh-tier pill recipe.
This kind of terrifying comprehension was something that even several ninth-tier alchemists working together would find it difficult to match.
Looking at Hai Bo Dong, who had not yet fully come to his senses, Xiao Yan smiled. "Unless it's a seal cast by an expert above the Dou Zong rank, it will be ineffective against you, Elder Hai."
"No wonder." Hai Bo Dong moved his body. When he looked at Medusa again, the fear in his eyes had lessened.
With his current strength, the only thing he was wary of was Medusa's sealing technique.
Since he was immune to seals, Medusa's last threat to him was gone.
"You're the one who helped Hai Bo Dong break the seal?" Medusa slowly landed on the yellow sand, her jade-like hand removed the veil, revealing an extremely bewitching face. Her light purple gaze fell on Xiao Yan.
From the short conversation between the two just now, it seemed that was the case.
If so, it made sense that Hai Bo Dong would be his guardian.
Xiao Yan stood with his hands behind his back. "What if I am?"
"What if you are? I'll make you stay in this Tagore Desert forever. I can do more than just use sealing techniques."
Medusa's eyebrows furrowed slightly. With a movement of her slender hand, a rich red energy surged out and finally condensed like lava in her palm.
With a clench of her jade-like hand, a colorful snake-shaped longsword was instantly condensed. Medusa's water snake-like waist twisted, and her enchanting figure sprinted forward like an arrow shot from a bowstring.
The terrifying speed caused a frightening sonic boom in the yellow sand.
Although there were two of them, Medusa was not afraid.
This was the Tagore Desert, the territory of the Snake People.
She could summon a group of helpers at any time.
Furthermore, as someone who used slaughter to deter the surrounding nations, she was not an ordinary Dou Huang rank expert.
The Snake People's special body structure and their supple figures made Medusa's movement technique very unique.
With a swing of her arm, which was like white jade, the snake sword in her hand twisted into a strange arc. Paired with her special movement technique, this swordsmanship was extremely tricky.
Hai Bo Dong had fought with Medusa before. With just one move, and with his current strength, he could tell that this woman had become stronger!
If not for Xiao Yan's pills, even if he had not been sealed by Medusa and had been cultivating until now, he would have a hard time being Medusa's opponent if they were to fight again.
Xiao Yan had a deep understanding of swordsmanship.
Under the stimulation of the Alchemist's Old Man's Corpse God Seven Oddities Dou Technique, he reached the Void Sword Realm, abandoning fixed sword moves.
Now, seeing swordsmanship similar to the Alchemist's Old Man's Corpse God Seven Oddities again, Xiao Yan had a new realization.
Void is not just emptiness.
Changing without form, hiding without shape, and being ever-changing and elusive is also a kind of void.
Just as the snake sword in Medusa's hand approached Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan's arm shot up like lightning. He flicked his finger in the air, but his move was faster than hers, and it just happened to hit the blade of the sword Medusa was swinging.
Although it was a simple action, Medusa felt a terrifying immense force, as if a meteor was falling. Not only was the snake sword blocked by Xiao Yan, but the momentum of the sword was also instantly broken.
Hai Bo Dong was greatly astonished. He had been in contact with Xiao Yan for a long time.
At that time, his seal had not been removed. Even though he only had the strength of a Dou Ling, he had rich combat experience, which was enough to match an ordinary Dou King rank expert, but he was still defeated by Xiao Yan.
Now, several years had passed. Hai Bo Dong knew that Xiao Yan would be Medusa's opponent, but he never expected that he would use such a simple movement to block Medusa's tricky snake sword.
