From Battle Through the Heavens Simulation to The Great Ruler

That unfortunate rock snake took all the damage in place of Qinglin, and its lifespan, which should have been hundreds of years, was reduced to only three years.

Upon learning of this, Xiao Feng was surprised, but couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

Okay, okay, this is how you play, right?

All three of us took the Life-Giving Pill, but I'm the only one who got burned by the side effects!

After all that, it turns out the clown was myself?

After reporting the good news of her breakthrough in cultivation to Xiao Feng, Qing Lin followed Queen Medusa and left the Snake-People's Royal City to subdue the sixth-order snake-type magical beasts that had already been selected.

Since sixth-tier snake-type magical beasts are equivalent to Douhuang level experts, they can be considered overlords in the Magical Beast Mountain Range and the surrounding human empires, so their territories are relatively far apart.

According to Queen Medusa's original plan, she only intended to help Qinglin subdue two sixth-tier snake-like magical beasts, and then she could subdue the other sixth-tier snake-like magical beasts herself.

However, plans don't always go as expected. On their way back to the Serpent Clan's capital, Queen Medusa and her entourage were blocked by an eight-winged black serpent king.

The eight-winged black serpent king, relying on the Heavenly Serpent Palace as its backer, dared to propose to Queen Medusa.

In fact, even if a flying magical beast like the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King, which excels in speed, couldn't defeat Queen Medusa, it would still be easy for it to escape from her clutches.

Unfortunately, the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King was having a run of bad luck, as he happened to run into Queen Medusa and Qinglin at the same time.

Taking advantage of the moment when Queen Medusa was entangling the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King, Qinglin directly activated the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil to forcibly enslave him.

Thus, the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King became Qinglin's new mount, allowing them to return to the Serpent Clan's royal city several days ahead of schedule.

With no worries left, Queen Medusa immediately began preparing for the evolution of her bloodline, while Qinglin went to report the good news to Xiao Feng and Little Fairy Doctor.

Looking at the three sixth-tier snake pets summoned by Qinglin, Xiao Feng patted her little head and said, "Goodness! The Xuanbing Dragon Python, the Crimson Flame Serpent King, and the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King, plus the support of the Ten Thousand Serpents Formation, I'm afraid there are few people in the entire Jia Ma Empire who can be your match."

(* ^ ▽ ^ *)

Upon hearing this, Qing Lin smiled somewhat embarrassedly and said, "It's mainly thanks to the Life-Devouring Pill given by the young master. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to break through to the Dou Wang level so quickly, let alone subdue Bai Ya and the others."

Compared to the improvement in her strength, what makes Qinglin happiest right now is that she can finally truly help Xiao Feng.

As long as Xiao Feng gives the order, Qing Lin will immediately lead the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King and the others to attack Yunlan Sect and give Nalan Yanran a severe beating.

Qinglin walked to Xiaoyixian's side, took her slender hand and said, "Sister Xian'er, if anyone dares to bully you and the young master again, I will make sure they suffer the consequences."

"Our Qinglin has grown up; she knows how to protect people now. So good!"

Since Qinglin was taken in as a personal disciple by Queen Medusa, influenced by Queen Medusa, her originally somewhat weak nature has finally become much more domineering.

Of course, when facing Xiao Feng and Little Fairy Doctor, Qing Lin still maintained a soft and cute appearance.

……

a few days later

The royal city of the Serpent People, on a small island in the middle of a lake.

Under the tense gazes of the four elders and Qinglin, Queen Medusa slowly removed her purple robe, revealing her stunning figure, and then formed a hand seal.

"Uh-huh!!!"

With a blinding flash of purple light, a giant purple snake, more than ten zhang long, appeared out of thin air in front of Qinglin and the others.

The giant purple serpent had a long and powerful body, exuding an elegant beauty. Its eyes were full of determination. It glanced back at Qinglin and the four elders, and then charged headlong into the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Originally only the size of a palm, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame expanded instantly into a giant fireball with a diameter of 100 meters after being attacked by the purple giant snake, completely engulfing the purple giant snake.

"what--"

The moment the giant purple serpent was enveloped by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, Queen Medusa's chilling scream instantly echoed throughout the entire Serpent Clan's royal city.

Little Fairy Doctor, who was playing chess with Xiao Feng, changed her expression slightly upon hearing Queen Medusa's scream, revealing a worried look: "I wonder if Her Majesty the Queen will be able to successfully overcome this calamity?"

Having spent several months with Queen Medusa, Little Fairy Doctor had come to regard her as a friend, and inevitably felt some concern.

Xiao Feng smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry! Her Majesty the Queen is very lucky and will be fine."

Xiao Feng was able to remain so calm not because he didn't care about Queen Medusa's safety, but because he had already foreseen the future scene of Queen Medusa's successful evolution while eating breakfast.

In the premonition that Xiao Feng saw, Queen Medusa, just like in the original story, successfully evolved into the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python.

Queen Medusa's mournful wails lasted for more than half an hour before gradually subsiding.

Seeing that the purple giant snake's body, which was more than ten feet long, had been reduced to only two or three feet long by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire, the four elders' hearts were in their throats.

Looking at the lifeless, charred body, the Third Elder couldn't help but ask, "Could it be... that we failed?"

Using different flames to evolve the bloodline of the snake people is indeed feasible, but the chances of success are too low. Otherwise, the four elders wouldn't have been stuck at the peak of the Dou Huang realm for so many years.

"No! Master did not fail!"

Qinglin suddenly shook his head and said, "I can sense a powerful aura being nurtured within that charred body."

"Rumble..."

As soon as Qinglin finished speaking, the energy in the world suddenly surged, gathering into a huge dark cloud above the small island in the middle of the lake.

Gazing at the streaks of lightning rolling in the dark clouds, the four elders' pupils constricted sharply as they exclaimed, "It's a demonic beast lightning tribulation!"

Legend has it that when certain legendary monsters are born or advance to higher levels, the disharmony of their enormous internal energy can cause unusual phenomena in the heavens and earth.

Since the demonic tribulation has appeared, it means that Queen Medusa's bloodline has already evolved halfway.

The reason why it is said that success is only half achieved is because the tribulation of magical beasts is not easy to overcome. Many powerful magical beasts have died under the tribulation of magical beasts.

Sensing the increasingly terrifying aura within the thunderclouds, the four elders were on high alert and quickly led Qinglin away from the island in the center of the lake.

"boom!!!"

When the energy in the thunderclouds reached a certain limit, a dazzling pillar of lightning descended from the sky, leveling the entire island in the middle of the lake.

Under the worried gazes of the four elders, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, revealing the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, which had returned to the size of a fist, and the charred corpse of the giant snake, which was less than half a meter long.

"Kakaka..."

A faint, strange sound suddenly came from the charred corpse of the giant snake, followed by a colorful figure bursting out and flying to Qinglin and the others.

It was a small, seven-colored snake, only as thick as a thumb, covered with tiny, seven-colored scales.

Its pale purple snake eyes exuded a clear yet foolish aura, and it carried a faint fragrance as it curiously examined Qinglin.

"Master, is that you?"

Seeing this, Qinglin tentatively reached out her little hand and gently supported the seven-colored snake.

"It's the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python!"

"Her Majesty has truly succeeded in evolving, and has even evolved into this legendary ancient beast."

"Legend has it that once the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python grows up, it can rival even a Dou Sheng (Battle Saint) level expert. It truly is a blessing upon our snake-human race..."

It's no wonder the four elders were so excited. With the existence of Qinglin and the Seven-Colored Devouring Python, whichever of them grows up in the future will be able to make the Snake People dominate a region on the Dou Qi Continent.

After a brief period of excitement, the four elders finally discovered that Queen Medusa's soul had been damaged and she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Seeing that the newly born soul of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python liked to stay by Qing Lin's side, and that Qing Lin was Queen Medusa's personal disciple, the four elders also entrusted the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python to her care.

In order to help Queen Medusa recover as soon as possible, the four elders specially took out some spiritual medicines that could repair soul damage from their private treasuries and entrusted them to Qinglin for safekeeping.

……

next morning

"Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened! The four elders, something terrible has happened..."

Just as the four elders were cultivating in seclusion in the bamboo building as usual, a panicked shout suddenly came from outside.

"How is it appropriate to be in such a hurry?"

Upon seeing the newcomer, the Grand Elder first gave a somewhat displeased reprimand before asking, "Hua She'er, why aren't you waiting by the Holy Maiden's side? What are you doing here so early in the morning?"

Flower Snake is Queen Medusa's confidante. Her strength has reached the Dou Wang level, and she is also the leader of the Queen's personal guard.

Since Queen Medusa evolved into the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, hundreds of her personal guards, including Flower Snake, have switched allegiance to Qinglin, responsible for protecting her and the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python.

"Elder, the Holy Maiden has run away from home. This is the letter she left for you!"

"What did you say?!"

The four elders, who had been calm, changed their expressions drastically upon hearing the news that Qinglin had run away from home. They hurriedly snatched the letter from Hua She'er's hand and began to examine it.

The letter stated that Qinglin was going to the Black Corner Region with Xiao Feng and the others for training. She planned to tame several seventh-tier snake-like magical beasts and heal Queen Medusa's soul damage before returning.

"..."

After reading the letter left by Qinglin, the four elders looked at each other in bewilderment.

Although the four elders wanted to curse, the deed was already done, and they couldn't very well go and bring Qinglin back, could they?

Fortunately, with Qing Lin's current strength and the three sixth-tier snake pets by her side, the four elders don't need to worry about her safety.

I just hope she doesn't go out and have too much fun and forget about the snake people.

Meanwhile, Xiao Feng and his companions rode the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King at breakneck speed and soon arrived at the headquarters of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group.

Upon seeing Xiao Feng and his group return, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li naturally gave them a warm welcome and immediately arranged a celebratory banquet to welcome them back.

After settling Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin in, Xiao Feng discussed serious matters with Xiao Ding and the others.

Because Xiao Feng didn't know when he would return after leaving the Tagor Desert, he specially crafted some magic treasures and artifacts for Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.

There are only four magical artifacts among them: two defensive artifacts and two offensive artifacts, which are specifically for Xiao Ding and his companions to use for self-defense.

In addition to the magical treasures made from materials from fifth-tier magical beasts, Xiao Feng also gave Xiao Ding and the others dozens of low-tier magical artifacts to help them cultivate their own trusted confidants.

As the Desert Iron Mercenary Group continues to grow, the mere Stone Desert City can no longer satisfy Xiao Ding and his group; they are now preparing to expand into the surrounding cities.

At that time, we will need to cultivate a group of powerful confidants to be in charge of the mercenary groups' branches in other cities.

Compared to letting those trusted confidants cultivate slowly, directly equipping them with offensive and defensive magical artifacts would have a more immediate effect.

As Xiao Feng and Xiao Ding chatted, the sky gradually darkened, and the celebration banquet officially began.

The veteran mercenaries of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group had all witnessed Xiao Feng's terrifying drinking capacity, and no one dared to be foolish enough to challenge him to a drinking contest.

However, many newly joined mercenaries, fearless and emboldened by the veterans, began to pli Xiao Feng with alcohol.
