Although Qingfeng didn’t recognize those self-cultivators, they followed behind him as if he was a guardian angel that they could rely on to survive.
Now the shorthaired self-cultivator was killed by the desert poisonous scorpion, which humiliated Qingfeng.
Anger flashed in Qingfeng’s eyes as he opened his mouth and spat out a ray of especially sharp golden energy. It tore through the void with incredibly fierce energy, immediately shooting onto the desert poisonous scorpion and tearing its body in half.
Qingfeng noticed then that the desert poisonous scorpion wasn’t very big, of only twenty of so centimeters, but there were many black poisonous thorns that were sharp. Once it touched the self-cultivators’ skin, it could easily tear apart their bodies.
All the several hundred self-cultivators behind Qingfeng sighed in relief when they saw that Qingfeng’s golden light had killed a desert poisonous scorpion, and they looked at Qingfeng with gratitude.
They knew that if Qingfeng didn’t kill this poisonous scorpion, then the other self-cultivators would be killed in the next second.
Splash, splash, splash…
Although Qingfeng killed a scorpion, splashing sounds came from the desert around them. The sound was especially piercing with terrifying energy that scared whoever looked even once.
Plop, plop, plop…
Suddenly large amounts of desert poisonous scorpion rushed out from underneath the desert. These were a large quantity of them, reaching roughly several thousand in total, and they surrounded Qingfeng along with all the other self-cultivators around him.
At this moment, everyone’s faces changed as shock filled their eyes. They clearly felt the great strength of a single desert poisonous scorpion, and now that there were several thousand, they felt like they were facing the end of the world.
Qingfeng’s face also slightly changed, but of course he didn’t fear these scorpions because it was easy for him to kill them. He was worried about those self-cultivators behind him, because their abilities were somewhat low, and they might be heavily wounded if the desert poisonous scorpions attacked.
Qingfeng looked at Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake and said, “You two go behind them and protect those self-cultivators, I’ll go and kill those desert poisonous scorpions.”
Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake nodded and transformed into two rays of black light that shattered the void. They immediately appeared in the back, and blocked the attacks of the scorpions, and protected all the self-cultivators behind them.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…
The ten or so scorpions in the back soared into the air, and unleashed a ray of fierce sword energies that charged towards those self-cultivators.
Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake both activated their super powers, as one shot out Yin-yang Energy from its eyes while the other spat out a devouring vortex, killing all those scorpions.
Qingfeng also knew that there were plenty of dangers hidden in the desert, and the scorpions before them were only the smallest of them. He had to kill them all in a hurry and walk past this desert.
“Five thousand times gravity technique,” Qingfeng shouted loudly, and he unleashed the five thousand times gravitational technique he just learned.
Massive black energy formed around Qingfeng, sinking deep underneath the ground and forming a massive gravitational force.
This suction power was very powerful, as it immediately sucked the several thousand scorpions nearby onto the ground and kept them from moving.
“Ground-Breaking Heavenly Halberd,” Qingfeng shouted loudly and took out his Sky-Breaking Halberd, heavily charged forward, and broke a massive crack onto the surface of the desert.
This crack contained horrific energy, as it directly rushed onto those scorpions nearby, and tore all of their bodies apart.
Snap, snap, snap…
In the blink of an eye, several thousand scorpions were kd illed, and Qingfeng’s Sky-Breaking Halberd punctured a massive crack underneath the desert, as if an earthquake hahappened.
These dead scorpions’ corpses all dropped into the crack and were then crushed into paste. Blood and carapaces flew throughout the space and filled the air with a bloody stench.
The self-cultivators behind him all survived as they looked at Qingfeng with admiration, like he was a ruler of a planet.
At that moment, they deeply recognized Qingfeng’s great powers. He was definitely as powerful as the four kings of the supreme dynasties.
Qingfeng had killed several thousand desert poisonous scorpions, but he wasn’t excited at all. Instead his face grew grimmer, because he realized that this desert wasn’t so simple.
Qingfeng didn’t sense these desert poisonous scorpions with his soul before, which meant that they hid far too deep and could have migrated over.
After he thought for a moment, he continued to lead everyone forward into the depths of the desert. Not matter how dangerous it would be in front, he had to walk over, because after they passed the eighth obstacle, only the last ninth obstacle was left before them. Then they could acquire the treasures inside the Sun Monarch Tomb.
Not long after Qingfeng left, a black shadow crawled up from the depths underneath the desert not far from where they stood.
This person was an elder in a black robe, with an aged face, and without a leg. He was Xie Ming.
Behind Xie Ming followed two elders, both appearing respectful on the surface.
The elder on the left had a slouched back, while the elder on the right only had one eye. Although neither of them were good-looking, they both had great powers, and their energies were incredibly cold and powerful.
The slouched elder said with respect, “Our Royal Monarch, that youth was Qingfeng. He is far too powerful.”
Xie Ming nodded with coldness in his eyes as he said, “Of course his powers are great. How else could he have torn off one of my legs? I thought these desert poisonous scorpions would be able to cause him trouble, but who knew that he would be able to perform a technique that increases gravity by 5000 times. That was a gravity technique that only the Undead Monarch knows.”
The slouched elder said, “Monarch, this desert is especially dangerous with the Six-tailed Demonic Fox not far in the direction that they left to. We’ll attack again once Qingfeng is wounded, and by then, we can definitely kill them.”
Xie Ming nodded and said, “That’s right, let’s go and continue to follow behind him. Don’t make any moves. We must wait until Qingfeng is wounded to attack, or else we won’t be able to kill him.”
Xie Ming’s body turned into a black fog that went beneath the desert and disappeared.
The two elders also followed behind Xie Ming and turned into two black fog. They all followed behind Qingfeng, prepared to attack him at anytime.
Of course, not long after Xie Ming left, a group of people appeared there. The leader of that group was the Demon Monarch and Devil Monarch, as they were also following Qingfeng.
