As the eerie green light illuminated the Horned Viper King, its massive body abruptly stiffened.
Its enormous snake eyes, filled with a hint of terror, were fixed tightly on the young girl before it.
Monts later, a green flower-shaped imprint rapidly appeared on the Horned Viper King's head.
The beast, which had been struggling fiercely just a mont ago, suddenly ceased all movent. The fear in its eyes faded, replaced by an obedient and submissive expression.
Seeing that the Horned Viper King was successfully controlled, Lin Feng quickly turned his gaze to Qing Lin in his arms.
However, he noticed that, apart from a slightly pale complexion due to excessive energy consumption, she did not faint like last ti.
Realizing this, Lin Feng's heart stirred. It seed that as Qing Lin beca more proficient with her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, the energy consumption would gradually decrease.
Yet, noticing the still-agitated desert vipers below, Lin Feng took out a healing pill and handed it to Qing Lin.
Then, he said, "Qing Lin, have the Horned Viper King command the rest of its clan to calm down."
Qing Lin understood that Lin Feng couldn't sustain the Purple Cloud Wings for too long. She imdiately contacted the Horned Viper King and relayed his command.
Following her order, the Horned Viper King let out a deep hiss.
In an instant, the chaotic viper swarm below settled down, no longer paying attention to Lin Feng and Qing Lin.
After landing, Lin Feng waited for Qing Lin to recover so of her strength before questioning the Horned Viper King about whether it had sensed any areas with unusually high temperatures nearby.
Receiving a negative response, Qing Lin shook her head at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng frowned slightly and scanned the viper habitat.
By rough estimation, there were at least two hundred desert vipers living here.
A thought flashed through his mind, and he quickly turned to Qing Lin, who was still soothing the Horned Viper King, and said, "Qing Lin, tell the Horned Viper King to send all these desert vipers out to search for areas with abnormal heat."
Hearing this, Qing Lin imdiately realized it was an excellent idea. She quickly conveyed Lin Feng's command to the Horned Viper King.
Before long, deep hissing sounds echoed, and the surrounding desert vipers swiftly moved out, dispersing in an orderly manner in all directions.

"Young Master, I think we've finally found it!"
On top of a sand dune, the young girl's face lit up with excitent, her crisp voice calling out to Lin Feng.
"Alright, I'm coming."
Lin Feng had heard this phrase too many tis in the past half-month. He responded lifelessly, his tone filled with exhaustion.
With a dull gaze, he glanced over before sluggishly making his way forward.
However, Qing Lin was still full of energy. Seeing Lin Feng's lethargic state, she quickly grabbed his hand and dragged him toward the ground hole.
At the entrance of the hole, they saw a deep and narrow tunnel, slightly over half a ter wide.
Lin Feng stretched his arm inside and activated his cultivation technique to absorb the Dou Qi within.
"Hmm?"
The Tagore Desert was already rich in fire-attributed Dou Qi. However, as soon as he absorbed the Dou Qi from the tunnel, Lin Feng imdiately noticed that it was even denser than the surrounding desert.
His once lifeless eyes instantly lit up with excitent.
After carefully sensing it again, he turned to Qing Lin and urged, "Qing Lin, quickly! Have the magic beasts widen the tunnel so we can fit inside!"
Seeing Lin Feng's anxious expression, Qing Lin instantly understood—they had finally found the right place this ti!
She hurriedly ordered the magic beasts to dig out the tunnel, making it large enough for them to enter.

The Next Day
Standing atop a sand dune, Lin Feng gazed at the wide tunnel in front of him, over a ter in diater.
This was the result of hundreds of snake-type magic beasts working overti throughout the night.
Lin Feng instructed Qing Lin to select two Rank 3, ten Rank 2, and twenty peak Rank 1 Desert Horned Vipers.
"Qing Lin, let them go ahead."
"Mm." Qing Lin nodded. With a single command from her, the Desert Horned Vipers slithered into the passage one by one.
Gazing into the pitch-black depths of the tunnel, Lin Feng gently lifted the petite Qing Lin into his arms.
Then, he took out a Moonlight Stone and handed it to her. Taking a deep breath, he jumped down after them.
Inside the dark tunnel, Lin Feng held Qing Lin tightly as their bodies slid downward along the sloping passage.
In Qing Lin's small hand, she held up the Moonlight Stone.
A soft, faint glow radiated from it, allowing Lin Feng to discern any obstacles ahead.
The narrow tunnel echoed only with the faint scratching sounds of fabric brushing against sand as they continued their descent.
After sliding for over ten minutes, Lin Feng could feel the increasingly dense fire-attribute energy within the tunnel—so thick that it was almost unbearable.
In fact, he could confidently say that ninety percent of the dou qi in the air was of the fire attribute.
As they went deeper, Lin Feng's expression grew increasingly serious.
He could feel that the cultivation technique within his body had begun operating at an astonishing speed entirely on its own, without him initiating it in the slightest.
This was the first ti sothing like this had ever happened since he began cultivating.
But this only confird one thing—the bottom of this passage was where the Nineteenth Ranked Heavenly Fla, the Green Lotus Core Fla, lay!
At this realization, Lin Feng instinctively swallowed, his face instantly filled with fervor.
Although the Green Lotus Core Fla was only ranked nineteenth on the Heavenly Fla Rankings, if it were to appear at a high-profile auction…
Even if the asking price was as high as a High-Grade Earth-Class cultivation technique or dou technique, alchemists would still be willing to fight for it!
Moreover, resolving Xiao Yixian's Woeful Poison Body required a Heavenly Fla as well.
Though he currently lacked the thod to refine a Poison Pill thod, who was to say…
That he wouldn't obtain it tomorrow?
"We're almost there."
Looking at the fiery red glow erging ahead, Lin Feng's voice was sowhat hoarse.
Gradually, the crimson hue reflected on the tunnel walls grew more intense.
Until finally, as Lin Feng carried Qing Lin out of the tunnel—
In an instant, the two of them felt as if they had stepped into a world of flas!
In the vast underground cavern, molten lava flowed slowly across the terrain, while massive bubbles occasionally rose from its surface.
Monts later, with a faint pop—
Boom!
A bubble burst violently, sending scorching magma into the air like a dazzling red firework.
Standing at the edge of the narrow tunnel's exit, the two of them stared blankly at the seemingly endless sea of lava before them, utterly speechless in shock.
For a long while, Lin Feng remained silent before finally speaking to Qing Lin.
"In this environnt, there should be a Two-Headed Fla Spirit Serpent inside. Release the Horned Viper King first. In a mont, I'll try to lure it out. You must seize the opportunity to control it, or else…"
Lin Feng paused briefly before solemnly continuing,
"We'll have no choice but to run for our lives. If that thing goes berserk here, the splattering magma alone is sothing neither of us can withstand."
