Chapter 191: Borrowing Fire

    ?

    "Medusa, if you had truly evolved and reached the Rank 7 magical beast level, I would indeed have to be wary of you. But right now, you''re merely a half-step Dou Ancestor. The gap between you and a true Dou Ancestor isn''t something that can be bridged by bloodline alone!" Yun Shan''s shoulders trembled slightly as he dispelled Medusa''s force. He stared coldly at Medusa, who stood protectively before Xiao Yan.

    Suddenly, his hands rapidly formed seals, and his body began to shake violently. A strange, black figure emerged from within him as he trembled.

    Medusa''s delicate brows furrowed as she observed the emerging black figure. She could clearly sense that this black figure was no illusion; it contained an immense amount of energy.

    And it possessed the strength of a peak Dou Emperor!

    ''An Avatar with the strength of a Dou Emperor...''

    Xiao Yan curled his lips. This Avatar wasn''t just any ordinary technique. He could tell that it infused powerful Spiritual Strength, somewhat resembling a combination of a soul body and Dou Technique.

    There was no need to even think about it. This was undoubtedly a Dou Technique from the Hall of Souls that allowed one to separate an avatar from oneself.

    Queen Medusa instantly turned, intending to intercept the Avatar, but Yun Shan''s main body eerily appeared before her, blocking her path. The Avatar flew toward Xiao Yan at extreme speed, with powerful Dou Qi condensed in its hands. It intended to first shatter Xiao Yan''s palanquin and then capture him. But at that moment, an elderly figure appeared before Xiao Yan.

    "Sigh, your medicinal pills are really not easy to earn," Jia Xing Tian exchanged a palm strike with Yun Shan''s Avatar. The terrifying energy instantly wreaked havoc, causing Xiao Yan''s palanquin to sway violently from side to side.

    Only when Xiao Yan saw Jia Xing Tian intervene did he retract the Green Lotus Core Flame and the Ten Thousand Beast Flame''s fire seeds back into his body.

    That Jia Xing Tian would step forward to protect him was something Xiao Yan had not expected. After all, he couldn''t currently produce the Mixed Bone Molding Pill, so his alchemy promise to the imperial family was, for the most part, just a verbal agreement.

    To offend the Misty Cloud Sect, which now had a Dou Ancestor, for the sake of a verbal

    promise didn''t seem worthwhile no matter how one thought about it.

    However, upon careful consideration, Jia Xing Tian''s actions made perfect sense.

    If Yun Shan hadn''t broken through to the Dou Ancestor realm, the Misty Cloud Sect would just be a fierce tiger capable of threatening the Jia Ma Imperial Family. But now, things were different. Yun Shan had broken through to Dou Ancestor! One had to know that there wasn''t a single Dou Ancestor in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

    The strongest cultivator and the strongest alchemist were both in the Misty Cloud Sect. The Misty Cloud Sect was no longer just a threat to the Jia Ma Imperial Family; they could easily overthrow the imperial family''s rule at any time.

    After exchanging several rounds with Medusa, Yun Shan discovered that he was actually unable to defeat her, instantly setting his anger ablaze! His eyes narrowed slightly before he let out a deep shout.

    The light in his palm suddenly flared as his shout fell. Then, an enormous energy palm dozens of meters in size appeared strangely, carrying a fierce gale as it ruthlessly slapped toward

    Queen Medusa.

    Medusa''s pupils contracted as she sensed the surging energy around her. Although magical beasts had stronger physical bodies and longer lifespans than humans, their Dou Techniques were absolutely inferior. Facing a Di Class Dou Technique used by a Dou Ancestor, her expression became extremely solemn.

    At this moment, a somewhat lazy voice reached her ears: "Your Majesty, this thing is borrowed and must be returned."

    Sitting on the palanquin, Xiao Yan smiled slightly and waved his hand. An emerald green fire cluster transformed into a stream of light and flew toward Queen Medusa.

    He saw Yun Shan actually using a Di Class Dou Technique and didn''t bother talking about fairness. He directly lent the fire seed of the Green Lotus Core Flame to Medusa!

    Medusa looked at the beautiful green flame floating before her like a lotus. She snorted lightly and said, "Hmph, this was originally mine to begin with."

    She reached out her left hand and gently held up the Green Lotus Heart Flame. The green light illuminated her stunning features, making her look as beautiful as a celestial maiden.

    Her eyes focused, and she instantly used her Dou Qi to drive the Green Lotus Core Flame. In the next second, endless green flames surged out from the fire cluster, gushing forth like a torrential sea. The sea of green flames instantly enveloped her entire body.

    The sea of green flames transformed into a green fire python. Facing Yun Shan''s Di Class Dou Technique, Medusa also struck out with a palm.

    Boom!!!

    Under the gaze of countless eyes in the square, the two attacks, both containing extremely terrifying power, finally collided with a thunderous impact. At this moment, the ear-piercing sound of the energy explosion echoed across the sky like a thunderclap, causing everyone''s

    ears to experience brief deafness.

    The incomparably terrifying high temperature of the Green Lotus Core Flame seemed about

    to melt the sky itself!

    The temperature on the square below instantly rose to an unbearable level!

    The power erupting from the Green Lotus Core Flame driven by the half-step Dou Ancestor Medusa''s Dou Qi was the true might of a Heavenly Flame. Compared to this, Xiao Yan''s Dou Grandmaster level Dou Qi driving it was as weak as a gas stove.
