Chapter 37: Activating the Azure Snake Triple-Flower Pupil

In the vast desert, wind and sand raged.

Lin Feng carefully protected the Green Scale behind him, slowly pressing forward against the wind and sand.

As they advanced, the oncoming gale, mixed with fine sand, struck his face, causing some pain.

The endless wind and sand forced Lin Feng to constantly circulate his battle qi, forming a thin battle qi membrane on his face.

Only thus could he avoid the fate of being disfigured by the wind and sand.

The yellow sand beneath his feet, under the scorching sun, was like scorching hot iron filings.

It made each step feel as if one were walking on fire.

Gazing at the boundless desert ahead, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel worried.

He originally thought the environment of the Tagor Great Desert would be not much different from the desert he had previously traversed.

Upon arrival, he discovered that the survival environment here was indeed much harsher than the desert he had walked through before.

Although he had also considered using the Purple Cloud Wings to hurry, the Tagor Great Desert is similar to the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

Many mercenaries come here to hunt magic beasts, and flying battle techniques consume battle qi enormously.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, he gave up the idea of using the Purple Cloud Wings.

However, although the environment of the great desert is extremely harsh,

the fire-attribute energy contained within is also extremely abundant.

Perhaps due to the scorching exposure, if considering only fire-attribute energy, this place is almost several degrees more vigorous than the small valley in the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

Moreover, the fire-attribute energy here is also exceptionally pure and domineering.

For fire-attribute battle cultivators, it can also be considered an excellent place for training.

Looking away from the map, Green Scale eyed the somewhat thin back of the youth before her, which appeared unusually safe.

After a moment's daze, she adjusted the cloth armor on her head that protected her face, and reminded: "Young master, according to this map, beyond the sand dune beneath our feet lies the habitat of a second-stage desert rock snake."

"Are we there yet?"

Gazing at the not-so-distant sand dune peak, Lin Feng murmured softly.

Afterwards, looking at the slightly breathless Green Scale behind him, he thought that she still only had seven-stage battle strength.

After pondering a moment, he then said: "Let's rest a bit, then set off again after a while."

Having said that, Lin Feng plopped down on the sand dune and began to rest and recuperate.

Shortly after, the two, having rested, rose again and continued forward.

Not long after, the two had already reached the top of the sand dune.

The two hid their bodies behind the sand dune, exposing only their heads, observing a flat area below.

There, there was a cave entrance over one meter wide.

Since it was now noon, the second-stage desert rock snake inside had already crawled out of the cave and was lying on the sand basking in the sun.

"Wait here for me."

Having said that, a layer of crimson battle qi gauze appeared on Lin Feng's body.

Then, exerting force with his legs, his body shot forth like an arrow, straight toward the position of the second-stage magic beast.

The rock snake, apparently also detecting the abnormality behind it, hastily turned its head.

A pair of gray vertical pupils slit open slightly, glaring fiercely at the rapidly approaching enemy.

"Blazing Fire Palm!"

As Lin Feng unleashed his battle technique, the desert rock snake sensed the oncoming threat and likewise refused to yield.

The snake's tail lashed out with great force, violently striking toward Lin Feng.

Upon collision, the resulting airflow surged outward in all directions, blasting the sand on the ground up into the sky.

Countless dust particles obstructed Green Scale's view beside them, making it impossible to see what was happening.

After a period of worry, once the dust settled, Green Scale finally relaxed.

At this moment, Lin Feng grabbed the snake's tail with his left hand, violently twisting it and pulling it to the side of the desert rock snake's head.

Its head was also firmly pressed down by Lin Feng's right hand, rendering the entire snake body immobile.

"Green Scale, come over."

Looking toward Green Scale to the side, Lin Feng called out to her.

Hearing Lin Feng's call, Green Scale also hurriedly ran over.

Arriving before it, gazing at the ferocious desert rock snake, Green Scale glanced at it with some fear.

"May I?"

Looking at Green Scale's expression, Lin Feng asked.

Thinking that the young master now needed her help, Green Scale firmly nodded.

Having arrived beside the desert rock snake's head, Green Scale focused her spirit.

Her eyes, like translucent green jade, stared intently at the snake's pupils.

"Ah!"

Not long after, Green Scale suddenly tore open her throat, emitting a high-pitched, sharp scream.

As this piercing scream rang out, three tiny green dots suddenly appeared beside Green Scale's emerald pupils.

This time, the three green dots that appeared did not require careful observation as before to become visible.

At this moment, within those eyes, they stood out conspicuously.

Moreover, Lin Feng beside her noticed that these three green dots somewhat resembled three tiny flower buds.

The scream's voice remained piercingly loud, and in this ever louder scream,

the three green dots in Green Scale's pupils suddenly burst forth with a deep glow.

In a moment, it actually transformed into three extremely tiny green flowers.

As these strange green flowers appeared, a strong beam of dark light suddenly shot out from within them, illuminating the desert rock snake before it.

When this somewhat strange dark light shone upon it, the desert rock snake's huge body suddenly stiffened.

Those vertical pupils, filled with a hint of fear, stared at the little girl before them.

The strange dark light slowly moved across the desert rock snake's body, finally stopping at the center of the snake's forehead...

After the dark light stopped moving, it began to slowly shrink.

And as the dark light's range grew smaller, the brightness it contained became ever greater.

The dark light's range kept shrinking, until finally it became only about the size of a palm.

And when the dark light shrank to that size, it stopped shrinking further.

With a burst of dark light, two tiny green flowers were imprinted onto the desert rock snake's head.

After the flowers appeared, the dark light began to gradually fade.

Moments later, the tiny green flowers in Qing Lin's pupils quickly dissipated.

Just a moment, and it returned to its former azure-green...

After the pupils returned to normal, Qing Lin's body trembled slightly, and her eyelids gradually drooped.

After a moment, she finally collapsed onto the ground.

Seeing Qing Lin faint, Lin Feng at that moment also had no time to worry about the desert rock snake, and hurriedly ran to her side.

After picking her up and checking, he found that Qing Lin was merely a bit weak, and he let out a heavy sigh of relief.

He then took out a healing pill and placed it into Qing Lin's small mouth.

He then took a water flask from his storage ring, poured a small sip of clear water, and helped her swallow it.

After doing all that, he then raised his head to look at that desert rock snake.

But at that moment, it just stood there foolishly.

However, whenever its gaze swept over Qing Lin on the ground,

its inherent ferocity and brutality would quickly disappear on their own.

In their place came a gentle...
