Chapter 102: Soul Technique Kills the Avatar Instantly

"Swoosh~"

Queen Medusa's main body, a Magic Beast, quickly caught up with Fire Lotus.

"Is this the Heavenly Flame?"

The dense Dou Qi released by the giant snake trapped the Fire Lotus, feeling the green flames enveloping it.

A hint of doubt flashed in the light purple snake pupils. Although the temperature of the flames was high, the energy seemed not as powerful as expected.

"Wait! Could it be..."

As if realizing something, the giant snake expelled a fierce gust of wind, which quickly dispersed the green flames, leaving only a thumb-sized green particle.

"Such intense fire attribute energy, is this the lotus seed?"

"Damn humans!!"

Queen Medusa grabbed the Fire Lotus and, with a bite of her silver teeth, finally realized she had been tricked.

At the same time, one of her snake spirit avatars sent a signal.

"Is that direction also fake?"

"A sixth-grade magic core. They're really generous!"

According to the information returned by the snake spirit avatar, the direction it pursued captured a sixth-grade magic core tainted with the scent of Heavenly Flame. Queen Medusa was instantly both furious and shocked. Furious because she had been fooled twice in a row, shocked because the other party could actually produce treasures like the Fire Lotus and a sixth-grade magic core as smokescreens.

"But, in the end, you won't escape from the last direction!"

Queen Medusa was confident in her own strength. Even her snake spirit avatar could unleash combat power close to that of a low-tier Dou Emperor. Even if she couldn't defeat the opponent, delaying them for a while would definitely be no problem. Once her main body arrived, the opponent would have no chance to escape!

In another direction, the snake spirit avatar finally caught up with Yun Tianming.

From afar, the figure of the target was covered with a layer of purplish-black flames.

"Using Beast Flame to cover the whole body, reducing the leakage of Heavenly Flame energy. No wonder the scent of Heavenly Flame in this direction is the weakest."

"What a cunning human!"

A flash of anger crossed the eyes of the snake spirit avatar. Queen Medusa's consciousness believed that the scent of Heavenly Flame in this direction was the weakest, but she never expected it to be the true target.

"Boom!"

In front of Yun Tianming, a wall of pink-purple Dou Qi appeared. With a turn of his Dark Feather Wings, he immediately changed his flight direction.

"Boom!"

Another wall of Dou Qi blocked the way.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Four walls of pink-purple Dou Qi, respectively blocking the front, back, left, and right directions.

Yun Tianming took a step, exerting all his strength in Bursting Void Steps, soaring into the air like a humanoid rocket.

"Don't even think about escaping!"

A long purple tail heavily slapped Yun Tianming, who was flying into the air. The Beast Flame enveloping him dispersed, revealing an overly youthful teenage face.

"Huh?"

"A 2-Star Dou Grandmaster, how arrogant!"

"You daring human kid!"

The snake spirit avatar widened its eyes, almost unable to believe that the one who had snatched the Heavenly Flame and played tricks on her was actually a young Dou Grandmaster.

Cough cough~

Yun Tianming dusted off the dirt on his body, looking straight at the serpent-shaped energy entity hovering in the sky. With a hint of disappointment between his brows, he said nonchalantly, "I heard Queen Medusa was stunningly beautiful, but your serpent form really doesn't interest me at all."

"Hehe! If you're interested, feel free to wait here. My main body will be here soon."

The snake spirit avatar sneered.

"To witness the splendor of Queen Medusa is indeed tempting."

"But today, my body is not in good condition. Let's do it another day."

Yun Tianming shook his head. Consumed by the deep layers of magma and having endured the impact of a Heavenly Flame eruption, his body was in a mess both inside and out. He needed to rest properly for a while.

"Hmph! Come and go as you please, do you think Tager Desert is your backyard?"

The snake spirit avatar opened its mouth and spewed out a ball of pink-purple flames, resembling a meteor of fire descending from the sky. But surprisingly, the temperature of the flames wasn't too high; instead, it carried a hint of coldness. This was the unique Beast Flame of the Sixth Rank Magic Beast: Purple Flame Serpent. The cold flames didn't burn the target with high temperatures but had a strong corrosive effect.

Yun Tianming dared not be careless and fully invoked the Extreme Purple Beast Flame, transforming into a lion-headed form.

"Roar!"

Flames clashed in mid-air.

"This flame... is actually Seventh Rank Beast Flame?!"

The snake spirit avatar's face changed slightly, then said coldly, "But it's regrettable. With your Dou Grandmaster power, you can't unleash the full power of Seventh Rank Beast Flame."

With overwhelming Dou Qi support, the pink-purple flames emitted by the snake spirit avatar began to corrode the lion-headed form Yun Tianming had transformed into.

"Is it indeed the gap in Dou Qi?"

Yun Tianming's face showed no great surprise. After all, he didn't expect to counter the power of a Dou Emperor solely with Beast Flame. He just aimed to buy some time and began forming complex soul hand seals with both hands.

"Stay down, kid!"

The snake spirit avatar suppressed the Extreme Purple Beast Flame unleashed by Yun Tianming, but didn't rush to kill him. She was curious how a Dou Grandmaster like him managed to find the Heavenly Flame in this vast desert land of endless sand.

"Goodbye, Queen Medusa."

"Next time, I will personally come to the Snake People Tribe to find you."

Yun Tianming raised his palm, his five fingers pointed towards the snake spirit avatar hovering above his head. Suddenly, his expression became confident and fearless.

"You human kid, what are you saying!?"

Before the words were finished, the snake spirit avatar felt an unprecedented terrifying soul pressure.

"Soul Technique: Divine Finger!"

Five invisible soul finger imprints appeared in the sky, grabbing onto the snake spirit avatar. For the snake spirit avatar, which had no substantial flesh but was only a Dou Qi energy body, soul attacks could cause 200% extra damage!

"Boom!"

The snake spirit avatar stiffened all over, then burst open like a punctured balloon, turning into countless pink-purple light spots scattered in all directions.

Faintly, there seemed to be a lingering, melodious hum.

Several tens of kilometers away, the purple giant snake, the Magic Beast's main body, let out a muffled groan of pain at the same time. It couldn't even maintain the form of the Magic Beast, its body flickering and changing, reverting back to the form of a Snake Person.

"My snake spirit avatar... has been destroyed?"

Queen Medusa reached out, her forehead furrowing slightly, her stunning face revealing an unusual expression of pain. This snake spirit avatar contained a trace of Queen Medusa's soul aura, so inevitably, the main body suffered a certain backlash after its destruction.

Biting her lip tightly with her sharp silver teeth, Queen Medusa spread her Dou Qi Wings and flew at maximum speed towards the direction where the snake spirit avatar was destroyed.

However, undoubtedly, by the time she arrived at the scene, Yun Tianming had long since escaped, along with the disappearance of the scent of the Heavenly Flame.

"Crash!"

Angry Queen Medusa had nowhere to vent, so she swung her sword towards the ground, creating a trench nearly a hundred meters long.

"You human kid, I dare you to come to the Snake People Tribe!"
