He had not taken Medusa into consideration at all when he spoke.
Not only were he and Xiao Yan powerful, dealing with one Medusa was not a difficult task.
Another reason was that the Snake People's bloodline was cold and yin. For Medusa, a Heavenly Flame was like a poison.
He didn't expect that this Medusa seemed to be interested in this Heavenly Flame as well!
"The Tagore Desert is the territory of the Snake People, so this Heavenly Flame should naturally also belong to the Snake People," Medusa said slowly, putting her veil back on, her tone leaving no room for doubt.
Hai Bo Dong's Ice Attribute Dou Qi erupted from his hand, condensing into a Trident of the Sea Emperor, and he said forcefully,
"No matter where this is, the Heavenly Flame does not belong to the Snake People. Heavenly Flames are rare treasures of Heaven and Earth, so they naturally belong to the capable."
Medusa was greatly surprised by Hai Bo Dong's much stronger aura than before. She didn't expect that his strength had actually broken through to the Dou Zong rank...
Even so, Medusa did not show any signs of fear, or even any intention of fighting. Her voice was numb as she said, "Hai Bo Dong, you have indeed found a good master. Your strength is a little stronger than before."
"However, don't forget where this place is. With just one signal from me, the leaders of the eight Snake People tribes and the Snake People elders will lead the Snake People to come here. At that time..."
Medusa's purple eyes narrowed, and the threat in her words was fully displayed.
Hai Bo Dong's face sank, and he turned his head to look at Xiao Yan.
The Snake People had the confidence to survive in the cracks between several great empires.
It was easy for them to kill one Medusa, but it would take a lot of effort to destroy an entire Snake People race.
Moreover, the great action of the entire Snake People race would definitely attract the attention of the experts of the surrounding empires, making it difficult for them to obtain the Heavenly Flame.
After comprehending the Ethereal Swordsmanship, which was vastly different from the sword intent 'Void', Xiao Yan's understanding of Dou Techniques could be said to have reached a new level.
First of all, the Dou Technique itself was already quite valuable.
Secondly, it was the repeated use of Dou Technique moves, and it was the repeated use of multiple types of moves.
This not only contained the joint use of moves like the five seals of the Emperor's Seal Art, but it also contained the essence of the fusion and upgrade of Heavenly Flames in the Flame Mantra cultivation method, and finally, it also contained his recent comprehension of combined Dou Techniques.
Finally, regarding the derivation of 'Void,' Xiao Yan had a new comprehension, but the time was too short for him to organize a specific Dou Technique that could be used.
Seeing that the young master wasn't saying anything, Hai Bo Dong had no choice but to question Medusa, "What do you want this Heavenly Flame for?"
He felt it was very strange that Xiao Yan already had a Heavenly Flame but still wanted another one.
He didn't expect that the cold-blooded Snake Person Medusa would also be very interested in the Heavenly Flame.
These two were really strange!
Medusa chuckled and said contemptuously, "I didn't expect that the former Ice Emperor would have completely fallen to become a dog. I don't want to talk to a dog."
No one had ever dared to call him a dog, not even when he was a Dou Huang rank expert, let alone now that he was a Dou Zong rank expert. Hai Bo Dong's face turned ashen, but he couldn't make a move.
The Snake People's secret technique for transmitting information was extremely fast. Even if he could kill this Medusa, he wouldn't be able to stop the signal summoning the Snake People.
Xiao Yan did not expect that Medusa, who was completely at a disadvantage, would actually risk the lives of her entire race.
However, this was also in line with the current survival situation of the Snake People—they could no longer survive.
If Medusa couldn't break through to become a Dou Zong rank expert, it would be even more difficult for the Snake People to survive between the great empires.
The environment of the Tagore Desert was very unsuitable for the Snake People to cultivate. The Snake People's combat power was decreasing daily, and they were far behind the development of the surrounding empires.
Over time, with fewer and fewer Snake People experts, it would be difficult for them to even defend this barren land of the Tagore Desert, let alone lead the Snake People out of the Tagore Desert.
Xiao Yan casually dismissed the magnificent ancient sword he had condensed with his Dou Qi and said slowly, "Elder Hai, you don't know this, but Queen Medusa's reason for wanting the Heavenly Flame is not so simple."
"Is there more to it?" Hai Bo Dong asked.
Xiao Yan said in a deep voice, "When Queen Medusa reaches the opportunity of the Dou Huang rank, if she has enough luck, she will undergo a strange evolution."
"After the evolution, Queen Medusa will not only be able to freely transform into a human form, but her strength will also naturally be promoted to a Dou Zong rank expert."
"The Heavenly Flame is that so-called opportunity," Xiao Yan said with a slight smile.
Hearing what Xiao Yan said, Medusa's face clearly changed slightly. Her charming pupils stared intently at Xiao Yan. "I didn't expect you to know these things. It's quite a surprise."
"Is this really possible?" Hai Bo Dong was greatly shocked. "The Snake People's physical characteristics are clear. They belong to the cold yin type. If she wants to use a Heavenly Flame to break through, she will likely be completely burned to ashes."
"Elder Hai, do you really understand the Snake People?" Xiao Yan asked in return.
A long time ago, the Snake People's power was very great. The great empires had to join forces to force them into the Tagore Desert.
The power of the Jia Ma Empire was the weakest among the great empires, and it could only deal with a limited number of opponents.
If she really understood them, even if Yun Yun had eight more guts, she would not dare to enter the Snake People's heartland with Gu He.
The strength of the leaders of the eight tribes was already extremely strong, and the Snake People were a belligerent race, not to mention Queen Medusa, a peak Dou Huang rank expert.
If Medusa went all out, she could almost wipe out Yun Yun's team by herself.
Hai Bo Dong was stunned by the question. When he was fighting against the full-strength Snake People, he was very young and did not have much deep contact with them.
"You seem to know a lot?" Medusa looked at Xiao Yan in surprise.
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Not a lot. I just know that the eight Snake People tribes each have their own characteristics. The Medusa tribe's Snake People are enchanting in appearance and skilled in charm and illusion techniques, the Ink Serpent tribe is skilled in using poison, and the most special one is the Flame Serpent tribe."
"Flame Serpent tribe?" This was the first time Hai Bo Dong had ever heard of this name.
Xiao Yan said indifferently, "You can tell by the name. The Snake People of this tribe have a great connection with fire. Their physique is completely different from most Snake People. It's not of the cold yin type."
"As the Queen Medusa, your physique should also have its own unique aspects, right?" Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed as he looked at Medusa.
Shortly after the birth of a Snake Person, a secret technique is used to infuse the soul of a snake-type Magical Beast into their body. As they grow in age and strength.
This snake-type Magical Beast, which serves as a companion soul, will also gradually fuse with them, and in the end, they will become indistinguishable.
And the snake-type Magical Beast that Queen Medusa fused with was called the Amethyst-Gloom Flame Serpent.
