Medusa saw the pill in Soul Changqing's hand and recognized it as the Transformation Pill. It seemed she had an idea, her beautiful eyes widened, and her pupils constricted. She immediately struggled wildly.

Soul Changqing smiled wickedly and pointed a finger at her with his True Qi. Medusa instantly went limp and couldn't move.

Then, Soul Changqing turned his hand and gently gripped Medusa's delicate, pale chin, applying a bit of force.

"Ah…"

Medusa screamed in pain. The moment she opened her mouth, Soul Changqing threw the Transformation Pill into her mouth and lifted her chin, allowing the pill to slide down her throat and enter her body.

Instantly, the terrifying power of the pill erupted within Medusa's body, flowing into her limbs and bones, transforming her body.

Medusa's snake tail instantly flashed with intense, colorful light, illuminating the dark, lightless peak of the mountain.

Then, the light slowly faded, and Medusa's snake tail was replaced by two long, smooth, flawless legs, resembling white jade.

Medusa, seeing her current state, was filled with shame and anger. She already knew what Soul Changqing intended to do, and her heart was filled with rage.

Just as Soul Changqing was about to step forward, Medusa roared with endless fury.

"If you dare come closer, I will self-destruct immediately!"

Soul Changqing's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he sneered.

"If you dare to self-destruct, I will ensure that the Jiamaji Empire will never have a Snake People Clan again! Since you can see the outside world through the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, you naturally know my capabilities!"

Medusa's heart trembled at Soul Changqing's words, and her expression froze. Her greatest wish in life was to help the Snake People Clan grow stronger.

She had risked her life to advance to the Battle Ancestor stage, all to help the Snake People Clan gain fertile land and escape the barren desert. She could pay any price for the Snake People Clan!

Now, Soul Changqing had hit her soft spot by mentioning the Snake People Clan, and she was filled with panic. She clenched her teeth and after a long pause, managed to say two words.

"Shameless!"

Medusa's eyes burned with fury, and she glared at Soul Changqing as if she could stare him to death with her angry gaze.

"Queen Medusa, you… don't want anything to happen to the Snake People Clan, do you?"

Soul Changqing licked his lips and smiled.

Medusa's face turned pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably. She clenched and unclenched her fists, her heart feeling as if it were being roasted over a fire, filled with anxiety and confusion.

"Hmph!"

Soul Changqing, seeing Medusa's panicked expression, coldly snorted. Taking advantage of her momentary distraction, he condensed a strand of Taiyin True Qi and injected it into her body, instantly sealing the Battle Qi that had just started to recover.

Soul Changqing couldn't wait for Medusa to continue her inner turmoil; his own body was about to erupt like a volcano. He acted without hesitation.

Medusa's eyes widened as she saw Soul Changqing suddenly move. Feeling the Battle Qi in her body completely immobilized, she was filled with despair, her expression bleak. Tears welled up in her fox-like, beautiful eyes and rolled down her exquisitely beautiful face.

As the two engaged in their struggle, the energy within Soul Changqing's body gradually calmed down, no longer raging and expanding. It slowly stabilized.

Medusa's body served as a conduit, allowing Soul Changqing to temporarily store the excess energy in her body. Once his own energy was refined, he would absorb the energy from Medusa's body, repeating the cycle.

As the energy continued to be refined, Soul Changqing also began to actively promote the advancement of the Black Wooden Shard within his body. A black vortex appeared above Soul Changqing and Medusa, drawing in the Cold Yin Energy from the entire valley, which Soul Changqing continuously absorbed. The small tree within his essence began to advance.

During the advancement, several massive tree trunks suddenly burst from the ground around Soul Changqing and Medusa, eventually enveloping them in a completely black, tightly sealed flower bud.
