[Victor: Medusa, have you obtained the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire?]
The first thing he needed to figure out was the current timeline of the Douqi Continent.
He could only hope the timeline wasn't too advanced. If it was, some valuable treasures might already be gone.
[Medusa: Not yet, but I've received information and confirmed the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire.]
As expected. The announcement had been accurate, this group member named Victor possessed considerable knowledge about the worlds where most members resided.
They weren't even from the same world, yet he somehow knew these things.
She was intensely curious about it.
"Medusa hasn't obtained the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire yet, which means it's still relatively early in the timeline."
Victor breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed some treasures were destined to fall into his hands.
Victor could only apologize mentally to his fellow countryman who'd also come from Earth.
[Victor: I need to go to your world to pick up some things. Is it convenient for you now? If it is, I'll head over right away.]
[Kiana: Is there something good in the newcomer's world? Why are you so eager to go there, Victor?]
[Belle: I'm curious too.]
[Victor: I suppose so. The world Medusa lives in is a fantasy world, where there are many extremely rare spiritual herbs and medicines, the materials for refining high-level pills.]
[Victor: If I can collect some, I'll definitely be able to refine more advanced pills!]
[Gu Yuena: A fantasy world? The same as mine?]
[Victor: That's right, but your world belongs to the fantasy subgenre. Medusa's world is more advanced than yours.]
Meanwhile, in the Snake-People Tribe of the Tagore Desert within the Jia Ma Empire of the Douqi Continent...
When Medusa learned that Victor was coming, she couldn't help feeling worried.
After all, he was a powerhouse from another world. If he came here to harm her or her tribe, she wouldn't be able to resist.
Though she wanted to refuse, she realized she couldn't stop it.
After all, he was spending his own group points. He could visit whichever world he wanted without needing anyone's permission.
Thinking of this, she could only sigh helplessly.
She just hoped he wouldn't make things too difficult for her.
[Medusa: Come ahead. It's convenient for me.]
As soon as she finished speaking, a space vortex suddenly appeared, quickly forming a dimensional gate.
Then, a man walked through.
He was dressed in white, with a face as three-dimensional as a sculpture with clear contours. A pair of thin lips curved perfectly beneath his high nose bridge.
Beneath his thick sword-like eyebrows were a pair of deep eyes, pupils like obsidian immersed in ice water, cold yet charming.
Even Queen Medusa found herself captivated for a moment.
At the same time, Victor looked at the Queen Medusa standing before him.
She wore an elegant purple brocade robe, her graceful figure beneath the fabric was plump and exquisite, exuding a faint charm like a ripe peach.
Beneath the brocade robe, a purple snake tail was revealed, swaying slightly, radiating a wild charm.
A pair of narrow, long lavender eyes held a natural enchantment in their moving gaze.
Three thousand strands of black hair casually draped from her shoulders, hanging vertically down to her slender waist.
What a charming woman!
Recovering his thoughts, Victor said, "I'm new here and don't know the way, so I'll have to trouble you to lead me."
"Of course, I won't let you guide me for nothing."
Medusa came to her senses and said respectfully, "Senior, you're too kind. It's my duty to lead the way for you. How can I accept your reward?"
"Since we're all in the group, we're like family. Just call me by my name. 'Senior' is too distant."
Medusa nodded without comment.
"So where does Victor wish to go?"
Victor thought for a moment. "Let's go to the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire first. I'm also quite interested in Strange Fires."
"Is that so?"
So he was also after the Strange Fire?
A hint of unwillingness flashed across Medusa's eyes.
After all, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire was too important to her, it determined whether she could break through to the next level.
Seeing the expression on Medusa's face, Victor guessed what she was thinking.
"Don't worry, I won't take this Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire from you for nothing."
"Afterwards, I'll sponsor you some group points. You can then use them to purchase the immortal cultivation methods in the group mall. This is also the system that everyone in our group is currently practicing."
"The Immortal Cultivation System is far superior to the Dou Qi System. If you succeed in cultivation, you can reach heights you can never imagine in this lifetime."
Medusa needed the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire simply because she wanted to use the power of the Strange Fire to attempt evolution through ancient methods and break through her realm.
The method of cultivating immortality from the group was more convenient than risking being burned by a Strange Fire!
Although Medusa didn't fully believe what Victor said, she still nodded.
"I understand. Please follow me. The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire is in the Tagore Desert."
Then, the two left the room together.
The snake-person guards standing outside the door were surprised when they saw the queen walking out with a human man.
However, they didn't dare ask more questions. They simply stood there and watched the two leave respectfully.
The Tagore Desert was vast.
At least, that's what Medusa thought.
She flew with Victor for half an hour before finally arriving at the entrance to the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire.
"The Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire is right below."
Pointing to the entrance below, Medusa turned around.
Victor pinched his chin. "There seems to be a seal at this entrance."
"Yes, this seal..."
Click...
Boom!
Medusa was just about to explain that she was the one who'd left the seal when Victor violently shattered it with a single punch.
Seeing this, Medusa couldn't help but be shocked by Victor's overwhelming strength.
He'd easily broken the seal she'd set, his strength was indeed far beyond her own!
You had to understand, she was at the peak of Dou Huang cultivation!
The sealing barrier she'd established would take even an ordinary Dou Zong realm expert considerable time to break!
Anyone who could shatter it so easily must be at least at the Dou Zun realm!
In other words, his strength was at minimum in the Dou Zun realm!
Thinking of this, Medusa couldn't help feeling relieved.
Fortunately, she hadn't refused his request to take the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire.
Otherwise, if a powerhouse at least in the Dou Zun realm became angry, the entire Snake-People Tribe would face a devastating disaster!
Victor didn't know what Medusa was thinking at the moment, and even if he did, he would just laugh it off.
The moment the seal shattered, he'd already reached the entrance.
Before entering, Victor felt a burning breath rushing toward him.
There was also a faint trace of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth mixed within.
