Glancing at Qingfeng Li, the Desert Giant turned and prepared to run .

It knew that it had to escape from this man if it wanted to survive .

Although the Desert Giant's body was made from sand, it suspected that this man's golden flame could still do it harm . The flames were incredibly powerful, and the Desert Giant felt a sense of danger coming from them . He had no doubt that the golden flame could melt all the sand in his body .

"You want to run?" A cold glint appeared in Qingfeng Li's eyes . "But can you get away?"

Merging into the void using spatial talisman scriptures, Qingfeng Li appeared before the Desert Giant in an instant .

He then activated his vital essence and struck out with his fist, blowing a large hole in the Desert Giant's body . The Giant was sent flying, landing heavily on the ground .

But, a moment later, sand from the Crimson Fire Desert began to converge toward the Desert Giant, filling the hole in its chest; it had recovered to its original state .

Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows . "Huh, you didn't die?" He said . "Your body is actually made completely from sand? How strange . "

Beside him, Sky-Devouring Snake spoke . "Qingfeng Li, this thing is practically immortal . I tried so many times, h.e.l.l, I even blew up its heart . But the sand always comes right back . "

Qingfeng Li nodded . "Since you won't die," he said, "then I'll just use my flames and melt all your sand . "

When he finished speaking, Qingfeng Li called upon his golden flames, which appeared over his fingers again . A hint of killing intent flashed over Qingfeng Li's eyes as he prepared to cast the flames onto the Desert Giant's body and kill it .

The expression on the Desert Giant's face changed to one of terror . It had just witnessed the king of the carnivorous ants being burnt to death by the golden flame . There hadn't even been a body left behind .

The golden flames were far too powerful . The temperatures it contained were at the Saint level . The Desert Giant was just a master of the Supreme Realm; there was no way it could withstand it .

With a shocking thump, the Desert Giant fell to its knees . It put its forehead to the sand and bowed toward Qingfeng Li . "Don't kill me," it begged, "don't kill me . I don't want to die . "

Qingfeng Li was left speechless . He had expected the Desert Giant to be a tough guy, but it turned out that it was surprisingly afraid to die . But then again, maybe it wasn't so strange .

Whether it was humans or demonic beasts, or any other race for that matter, all living things had an intrinsic fear toward death . No one wanted to die; everyone wanted to live .

Qingfeng Li's rolled its eyes . "You want me to spare you, I can do that . But you must agree to become my servant . "

Qingfeng Li's rolled its eyes . "You want me to spare you, I can do that . But you must agree to become my servant . "

The Desert Giant's expression s.h.i.+fted . "No," it said, "I can't become your servant . I'm a subject of the Desert Queen . If she found out that I've become your servant, she'd kill me for sure!"

A cold glint flashed through Qingfeng Li's eyes . "Since you won't become my servant, then you can die . "

He continued after a pause . "If you become my servant, you'd still have a chance at life . As for this Desert Queen, rest a.s.sured that she is no match for me . You should know how powerful my golden flames are . "

The Desert Giant's eyes s.h.i.+fted restlessly . It seemed to be struggling to reach a decision . Finally, it decided to pledge itself to the man before him . If it didn't, it would die right now . If it pledged itself to this man, there was still a chance he would live .

With a heavy thump, the Desert Giant fell knelt before Qingfeng Li again . "I agree to pledge myself to you," it said, "I will become your servant . "

Desert Giant raised a finger . From deep within its mind-s.p.a.ce, it produced a golden sand seal . This seal appeared identical to an ordinary grain of sand, only it was made from soul energy . The seal flew directly into Qingfeng Li's hand .

Qingfeng Li stored the seal deep in his own mind-s.p.a.ce . It appeared there, a floating grain of sand . The grain of sand took the shape of the Desert Giant's current appearance .

With just a thought, Qingfeng Li could force the grain of sand to shatter, to explode . If that happened, the Desert Giant, too, would die .

Seeing that the Desert Giant had pledged itself to him, Qingfeng Li was visibly pleased . The reason he had let the Desert Giant live was that he needed to ask it for information about the Crimson Fire Desert .

Seeing that the Desert Giant had pledged itself to him, Qingfeng Li was visibly pleased . The reason he had let the Desert Giant live was that he needed to ask it for information about the Crimson Fire Desert .

Although Qingfeng Li had obtained a complete map of the Crimson Fire Desert, it was a map from five centuries ago . During those five hundred years, some of the geography, landmarks, and the distribution of demonic beasts within the Crimson Fire Desert should certainly have changed .

For example, the king of the carnivorous ants had not been marked on the map . But Qingfeng Li had encountered it soon after entering the desert .

Qingfeng Li stared at the Desert Giant . "Right now, "he asked, "what are the biggest forces in the Crimson Fire Desert? Tell me about them . "

The Desert Giant nodded . "Right now, there are three large forces in the desert," it said, "The first is a powerful human self-cultivator called the Fiery Supreme .

The second is the Desert Queen . Her whole body is made of the golden sand from the Crimson Fire Desert . She is extremely powerful, capable of consuming human self-cultivators and demonic beasts and turning them all into her own power .

The third major force in the desert are the Mirage Beasts . They can create illusions and mirages in order to confuse self-cultivators . They would trap their prey and eventually kill them . "

Hearing the Desert Giant's words, Qingfeng Li nodded . He now had a clearer understanding of the distribution of power in the Crimson Fire Desert .

Combined with the five-hundred-year-old map of the Crimson Fire Desert in his possession, he had a clear idea of the area's terrain and major players, along with the locations of some of the spirit herbs .

Turning, Qingfeng Li walked to Sky-Devouring Snake's side . "How are you feeling?" he asked .

Turning, Qingfeng Li walked to Sky-Devouring Snake's side . "How are you feeling?" he asked .

Sky-Devouring Snake shook its head . "I feel like c.r.a.p," it said, "I'm heavily wounded; my demon essence is exhausted . And even if you told me to walk in this d.a.m.n desert right now, I wouldn't be able to . "

Qingfeng Li nodded . With the power of a thought, he retrieved some healing elixirs from his interspatial ring . He placed these in Sky-Devouring Snake's mouth . "Eat these," he said . "Absorb their power and recover your demon essence . "

The Sky-Devouring Snake's eyes lit up, pleasantly surprised . "Where did you get all these Supreme level healing elixirs?" it asked . "These are very valuable, I've never seen these on the Crimson Fire Continent before . "

Beside them, Black Puppy wagged its tail haughtily . "You've got it the worst of any of us," it said, "First you got chased around, then you nearly die . We've been having a great time on this continent . See this guy beside us? Yeah, that's the Second Prince of the Country of Lingyun . And he's our friend . "

Sky-Devouring Snake glanced at Black Puppy, eyes filled with envy . It had nearly died, and these two were living the chill life .

Without a moment's hesitation, Sky-Devouring Snake hurriedly swallowed the supreme level elixirs that Qingfeng Li had given it . The elixirs turned into a ma.s.sive amount of energy, repairing its broken body and internal injuries .

This supreme level healing elixir was extremely effective . It was made entirely from treasures of the heaven and earth . In just a few minutes, the Sky-Devouring Snake's body had been fully restored .
