Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Qingfeng Li kicked lightly off the ground, his body taking to the air and instantly appearing in the sky. Then, he drew an arc through the air as he flew to Sky-Devouring Snake’s side.

By this time, several hundred black carnivorous ants had gathered around Sky-Devouring Snake. They had completely surrounded their prey and, with their sharp mandibles opened, were trying to tear off its flesh.

Killing intent flashed in Qingfeng Li’s eyes as he activated his fire vital essence. Drawing the Fire Emperor Sword, he slashed ahead of him, releasing a beam of fiery sword energy.

The fiery sword energy was extremely powerful. With terrifying heat, it fell upon the black carnivorous ants. The ants’ bodies crackled in the flames as they howled in pain.

Instantly, the several hundred carnivorous ants around Sky-Devouring Snake had been killed by Qingfeng Li; it had only taken a single swing of his sword. Seeing this, the carnivorous ants around them stopped, their eyes filled with disbelief.

They knew full well how strong one of their own was. Just now, they had already wounded Sky-Devouring Snake; they had even torn off a bit of its skin.

But now, a few hundred carnivorous ants were slain in the blink of an eye, all by one swing of Qingfeng Li’s sword. The man before them was unbelievably strong, stronger than they could ever have imagined.

The leader of the carnivorous ants was very tall, standing at a full half-meter in height; it was massive. Its sharp mandibles stuck outward like the canines of a tiger. By its side fluttered a pair of wings. It was the king of the carnivorous ants and the monarch of this swarm.

It stared at Qingfeng Li.

“Who are you?” it asked in a cold voice, “Why did you kill my subordinates?”

Qingfeng Li gave a humorless smile.

“This,” he said, “is my friend. And you dared to attack him. Now, I’ll give you two options. One, get lost this instant. Two, you can all die here.”

The king of the carnivorous ants bellowed in laughter, its eyes filled with disdain. “Aren’t you a cocky one,” it said. “Of all the human self-cultivators who had entered the Crimson Fire Desert, most of them had become our food. Not to mention that you’re only at the First Level of the Supreme Realm. I’ve eaten even masters of the Fifth Level of the Supreme Realm! You are just an appetizer to me.”

The king of the carnivorous ants swung a forelimb. “All of you, “he said. “Go! Kill this human. I’m going to eat his skin, flesh, blood, guts, and heart!”

At the command of their king, thousands of carnivorous ants swarmed forth at Qingfeng Li.

With so many carnivorous ants, they moved like a carpet or ocean wave, completely enveloping Qingfeng Li, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake.

Activating his fire vital essence, Qingfeng Li created an Inferno Realm. He was now a master at the First Level of the Supreme Realm, so the Inferno Realm he created was incredibly powerful. It spanned a thousand meters in diameter, within which was a sea pf red flames burning everything.

With a terrifying heat, the Crimson Fire crackled in the air. Smoke began to rise from any carnivorous ants within the circle; they gave agonized shrieks as they burned.

The expression on the king of the carnivorous ants’ face changed, a hint of rage flashing across its eyes. It hadn’t expected Qingfeng Li to have so much fire vital energy, and at such a high temperature. Its subordinates were completely unable to withstand it.

The king of the carnivorous ants abruptly flapped its right wing, creating a black tornado.

With violent force, the black tornado tore apart space itself as it appeared. It ripped a crack straight into Qingfeng Li’s Inferno Realm, allowing the carnivorous ants within to escape.

Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows.

Fifth Level Supreme Realm huh? he thought to himself. He hadn’t expected the king of the carnivorous ants to have reached the Fifth Level of the Supreme Realm. No wonder it acted with such arrogance.

Qingfeng Li knew that he needed to use his full strength in order to kill the king and its carnivorous ant army. Otherwise, once they escaped, he would be in a difficult situation. These things moved through the desert without a leaving a trace and were very difficult to track.

Without hesitation, Qingfeng Li took out his Thunder Lightning Pearl.

Qingfeng Li’s Thunder Lightning Pearl had been in incubation for the past little while. As his own power increased, the Thunder Lightning Pearl’s level had changed as well. It had now reached the Fifth Grade and its color had turned red.

Using his Thunder Chant, Qingfeng Li activated the Thunder contained in the Thunder Lightning Pearl, releasing all of the one thousand beams of lightning therein.

The one thousand beams of lightning appeared, releasing a series of loud crackles; they were even more powerful than they had been when they were of the Fourth Grade.

Bright red lightning appeared as though from the void, viciously striking the ten thousand or so black carnivorous ants. The ant’s bodies exploded on contact, turning to fragments that disappeared in the skies over the Crimson Fire Desert.

Qingfeng Li’s Fifth Grade thunder was far too powerful for the carnivorous ants; they didn’t even have time to react. They died before they were even able to let out a scream. The only one remaining was the king of the carnivorous ants.

The king was extremely powerful. Despite having been struck by thunder twice, it had only sustained light injuries, with only a bit of black blood leaking from its wounds.

Aside from this, it was unharmed. However, seeing all ten thousand of its subordinates being killed, the king of the carnivorous ants let out an infuriated roar.

The king of the carnivorous ants glared at Qingfeng Li murderously. “Human, you will die! I will eat you today no matter what!”

The king of the carnivorous ants abruptly spread its wings and flew up off the ground. From the air, it opened its mandibles and spat out a black fluid aimed straight at Qingfeng Li.

The black fluid was a type of super power that it had learned on its own. It had strong corrosive properties, capable of eating a hole through the air, ground, or even the void itself.

Qingfeng Li remained calm, not frightened in the least. He drew power from within and the golden flame appeared, dancing over two fingers on his right hand. In one swift motion, he threw the flames forward.

The golden flame radiated heat reaching eight thousand degrees, reducing the black poisonous fluid to nothing, leaving only a wisp of green smoke which quickly disappeared over the Crimson Fire Desert.

Then, without a shred of hesitation, the golden flame continued to rush forward. It fell upon the king of the carnivorous ants, making it howl in pain.

The king of the carnivorous ants tried to extinguish the golden flames consuming its body, but it found that the flames were far too powerful. It could not put it out.

The golden flame climbed along the king’s feet, consuming its legs, wings, head, and body. Finally, it was reduced to ashes and scattered to the winds.

The king of the carnivorous ants was slain.

Seeing the death of the king of the carnivorous ants, the Desert Giant’s expression changed to one of horror. It was well aware of how powerful the king of the carnivorous ants was. Even the Desert Giant couldn’t kill the King.

But now, the king of the carnivorous ants was killed by Qingfeng Li with ease.

The Desert Giant knew that, if it were to battle with Qingfeng Li, it might not even be a match for the human.
