Pirates: Get the Ice Demon Slayer Magic at the beginning

Ye Fan walked in the desert, his eyes narrowed, feeling the growing sense of oppression around him. He knew that the queen of the snake people, Medusa, would not easily let go of any outsiders who dared to step into her territory, especially when they were trying to find out about the spiritual veins. However, Ye Fan did not intend to confront her head-on on this issue.

He came with his own plan. This time, his purpose was not just to conduct a simple transaction with the Snake People, but to use this opportunity to further expand his power. After establishing a good cooperative relationship with the auction house, Ye Fan realized that the acquisition of resources was not limited to plundering from the surrounding monks and sects, but more dependent on alliances and transactions with other races. The Snake People were undoubtedly a powerful and potential partner.

Therefore, Ye Fan prepared his trump card - the Transformation Pill. This pill is a huge temptation for the monsters. Any monster, as long as it takes the Transformation Pill, can show its human form and gain human-like wisdom and abilities. For the warriors of the Snake People, this is undoubtedly a huge temptation, because the Transformation Pill can not only help them gain stronger power, but also give them advantages closer to humans.

After entering the territory of the snake people, Ye Fan immediately felt that the atmosphere around him became more oppressive. The heat of the desert did not seem to reduce the tension in the air, but made the whole environment more depressing. The wind and sand swept through mercilessly, and the air around him was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, as if every grain of sand in the desert had witnessed the vicissitudes of countless years.

After crossing a thick sand dune, Ye Fan finally saw the towering stone palace, the territory of the snake people. The stone palace exuded an ancient atmosphere, and the walls were engraved with runes and totems, which seemed to contain endless power. In the center of the stone palace, sat an extraordinary woman, her figure standing on a high seat, like a god who was not affected by worldly fireworks.

Her beauty is like a fairy, but with an indescribable coldness and nobility. Her upper body is a perfect female body, with snow-white skin, picturesque eyebrows, sharp and deep eyes, and an irresistible charm. Her lower body is a powerful snake tail, the snake scales are shining with purple-gold light, and each scale exudes a biting coldness. Her existence seems to have condensed the most powerful force between heaven and earth, and an unignorable pressure spreads in the air.

Ye Fan stood at the door of the stone hall and was stunned. Even though he was a cultivator who was used to the demeanor of a strong man, the Medusa in front of him still made him feel oppressed and even fearful. Her aura was not only powerful, but also an existence that made people unable to look directly at her.

Ye Fan took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts, walked into the stone hall, and faced Medusa on the high seat.

Medusa smiled slightly, with a hint of contempt and curiosity in her eyes. "Are you the outsider who dared to intrude into the territory of my snake people?" Her voice was cold, but it carried an indescribable charm that made people listen involuntarily.

Ye Fan bowed slightly, his tone calm and firm: "It is me, Ye Fan. I came here today hoping to reach a deal with the nobles."

"Trade?" Medusa chuckled, with a hint of disdain in her eyes. "You humans are good at trading, but in front of my snake people, trading is not that easy."

Ye Fan's expression remained unchanged, and he continued, "I know what the nobles need. For you, the Transformation Pill is an extremely precious elixir. As long as the nobles can provide information about the spirit vein and its location, I am willing to exchange it for the Transformation Pill."

Medusa's eyes flickered slightly, as if she was interested in Ye Fan's proposal. She glanced at Ye Fan, as if evaluating the truthfulness of his words.

"Transformation Pill..." Her voice was filled with some contemplation, "It is a holy medicine for the evolution of monsters, which can make our warriors gain higher wisdom and strength. Where can you get this precious pill? Besides, do you think my snake people will trust you, a human?"

A hint of confidence flashed in Ye Fan's eyes: "I have no hostility towards the snake people. I can refine this pill myself. It is definitely valuable enough."

Medusa's gaze became sharper, and a trace of thought flashed across her eyes. She was obviously not in a hurry to make a decision.

"You do have some truth in what you said." Medusa's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, "However, a transaction requires trust from both parties, and you have no way to prove your sincerity."

Ye Fan paused for a moment, then took out a delicate vial from his storage bag and gently handed it to Medusa: "This pill is what I called the Transformation Pill. If the noble is willing to cooperate with me, the transaction can begin immediately."

Medusa took the bottle and gently opened it. A fresh scent of medicine instantly wafted out. She looked at the pill carefully and frowned slightly.

"It is indeed the scent of the Transformation Pill." A hint of excitement flashed in Medusa's eyes, but she quickly restrained her emotions. "Do you know how important the Transformation Pill is to us, the Snake People?"

Ye Fan nodded slightly: "I understand, that's why I am willing to use this as an exchange to obtain the location of the spirit vein."

Medusa was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Well, since you can show such sincerity, I will consider cooperating with you. But if you dare to betray me, I will make you pay the price."

Ye Fan chuckled: "I, Ye Fan, am trustworthy and will never break my promise."

Just as the two were about to reach an agreement, suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the stone hall. Shago led a team of snake-men warriors and rushed into the hall quickly, his eyes full of vigilance and hostility.

"Your Majesty, we have discovered those humans outside. They don't seem to be here just for trading, but for other purposes!" Shago said hurriedly, "There are strong people in their team, and they are quietly approaching our territory!"

Medusa smiled coldly and glanced at Ye Fan: "You really are hiding something. In this case, today we will have a duel to see if you are worthy of the trust of my snake people."

Ye Fan raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that it was a pity. The Medusa in front of him was indeed not simple. This sudden duel caught him off guard, but he knew that since things had come to this point, he could only fight.

"Okay! Since you are willing, I will accompany you." Ye Fan's eyes gradually became cold, and his hands slowly clenched into fists.

The auras of both sides collided in an instant, and the battle was about to break out.

The atmosphere of the battle instantly became tense and oppressive, and the air seemed to be torn apart by some invisible force. Ye Fan stood opposite Medusa, his eyes sharp and calm. He could clearly feel that the strength of the snake queen in front of him was far from what he had estimated before. Her aura was extremely powerful, as if it could swallow everything. The surrounding space seemed to be shocked by her, as if even the air was making way for her.

Medusa smiled slightly, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she moved her body, and pounced on Ye Fan like a spirit snake. Her movements were so fast that people could not react, and she arrived in front of Ye Fan in an instant. Her fingers were like sharp claws, pressing directly on Ye Fan's chest, and the speed was so fast that Ye Fan had no time to dodge.

Ye Fan's eyes turned cold, his footsteps slightly wrong, his body suddenly bent, and he narrowly avoided Medusa's fatal blow. Her fingers brushed Ye Fan's body, and the air made a sharp sound of breaking through the air under her claws. Ye Fan's body rotated as he dodged, and his hands slammed the ground. A powerful force instantly burst out from his palms, and the strong air wave lifted the surrounding sand and formed a strong storm.

However, Medusa's figure disappeared from Ye Fan's sight again. When he reacted, he could already feel her huge aura sweeping over him again. Her body shook and she appeared behind him. Her snake tail swung quickly and rushed towards Ye Fan's back in an instant, like a sharp blade cutting through the air, carrying a sharp murderous aura.

Ye Fan's heart tightened, and he immediately turned around and blocked the attack of the snake's tail with his palms. The two forces collided violently, and Ye Fan felt a terrifying force rushing into his arms, almost making his whole body unconsciously step back a few steps. At this moment, Medusa did not stop, and suddenly retracted her snake tail, quickly stepped forward, and pounced on Ye Fan again like a spirit snake.

"Do you think you can fight me with just this method?" Medusa's voice was cold and intimidating, and there was a hint of disdain in her eyes. "Although your cultivation is good, it is still far behind mine."

Ye Fan gritted his teeth. He could feel how powerful Medusa was. It could even be said that this was an overwhelming gap. Medusa's power was not only reflected in her extremely fast attacks, but also in her strong fighting instincts and extraordinary physical fitness. With every attack, she could accurately grasp Ye Fan's flaws and launch a fatal blow in the shortest time.

Although Ye Fan had a powerful trump card and rich combat experience, facing Medusa's overwhelming attack, his reaction had become increasingly difficult. Every dodge and counterattack required him to concentrate all his attention. Even if he was distracted for a moment, his body would suffer heavy damage.

"Damn it!" Ye Fan cursed in his heart, knowing that if he didn't retreat, he might not be able to escape unscathed. Medusa's strength made it impossible for him to fight back effectively, so he had to make a choice.

At this moment, Ye Fan discovered a flaw in Medusa's attack after a brief observation: although her attacks were swift and deadly, she would pause for a moment after each attack. This tiny pause gave Ye Fan the opportunity to retreat.

He suddenly changed his tactics, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he formed seals with his hands. A strong spatial wave suddenly erupted, quickly tearing the surrounding air apart. Ye Fan instantly used his ability to travel through space and quickly retreated dozens of meters away.

"You can't escape." Medusa sneered, she leaped forward and swung her snake tail towards Ye Fan again, but Ye Fan had disappeared from her sight. Her attack missed, and she could only stare at the empty space with a bit of anger.

Ye Fan knew that in such a situation where there was a huge power gap, he had to stay calm. Although he had a trump card, he could not rashly fight Medusa head-on. In this duel, his goal was not to defeat Medusa, but to use tactics to retreat, protect himself and his disciples, and find a more favorable opportunity.

He took a deep breath, turned around and prepared to lead his team to retreat. In any case, he had to temporarily admit defeat in this battle. At this moment, maintaining vitality and strength was the key to his bigger plan in the future.

Just as Ye Fan was about to lead his men to retreat, Medusa's voice rang out again: "Do you think you can escape like this?" There was no anger in her voice, but instead a playful sneer.
