Chapter 539 Strange Beasts of the Sand Sea
His face turned stern, and he shot out, flying directly out of the ferry's range, heading straight for the underside of the ship with lightning speed.
These sand beasts and human-faced scorpions were quite sensitive to the aura of cultivators. As soon as they detected the ship escort's presence, they immediately swarmed towards him like a flood.
Black light erupted around the ship escort, and visible black ripples spread out, enveloping both himself and the ferry. It was evident that he had unleashed his Spirit Domain, but he clearly didn't want to cause too much commotion, so he limited the Spirit Domain's range to within ten zhang around the ship.
As soon as those sand sea beasts entered his Spirit Domain, they were immediately entangled by wisps of black mist. White bubbles appeared on their bodies as they were corroded and dissolved.
The three larger sand worms, slightly stronger, still failed to approach within three zhang of him before their flesh and blood turned into a pool of pink foam.
"Golden Immortal cultivator, indeed powerful..."
"Is this the Spirit Domain? So amazing!"
"Worthy of being the ship escort..."
...
Upon seeing this, the people on the ship praised him one after another.
Han Li's expression suddenly changed. Grabbing Jin Tong, he flashed and dashed towards the stern of the ship.
Immediately afterward, the sand sea in front of the ferry suddenly erupted like a volcano, sending countless human-faced scorpions and small sand beasts flying.
The next moment, a giant sand beast, twice the size of the ferry, suddenly burst out of the sand sea. Its body twisted in mid-air, and it opened its blood-red maw, which seemed capable of swallowing the heavens and the earth, and bit down directly on the ferry.
The ship escort, who was in front of the ferry, was the first to bear the brunt. His face was filled with horror, and he wanted to flee with his escape light.
However, a dark red vortex seemed to be rotating within the sand beast's giant mouth, emitting a strong tearing force that ignored the ship escort's Spirit Domain and pulled him in place.
With a loud "crack!"
The sand beast's giant mouth bit down, devouring half of the ferry, including the ship escort.
The severed ferry, without power, fell towards the sand sea. The cultivators inside didn't have time to escape before they were immediately submerged by dense swarms of human-faced scorpions and small sand beasts.
For a time, the sand sea was filled with wails and the stench of blood.
Except for a hundred or so True Immortal Realm cultivators who reacted quickly and managed to escape, the remaining ferry passengers all became souls of the sand sea in an instant.
Someone shouted "Run!" and the remaining hundred or so True Immortal cultivators, not knowing which way to go, ignited their escape lights and scattered in all directions.
Amidst the chaos, a strange thought arose in Han Li's mind: "Where is Shi Chuan Kong?"
He hadn't seen him since the incident occurred. Han Li didn't think that this person would be so easily buried in the sand beast's mouth.
As he pondered, he grabbed Jin Tong, found the direction of the desolate continent, and was about to fly away when he discovered that the giant sand beast was rushing towards them.
Han Li's pupils slightly contracted.
Although this sand beast was powerful, it was only at the mid-stage Golden Immortal Realm, which he wasn't afraid of.
Just as he was about to attack, he heard Jin Tong's voice in his ear:
"Uncle, you don't need to attack. Let me deal with it."
Jin Tong's eyes were filled with excitement. Without waiting for Han Li to agree, his figure had already shot out, transforming into a golden beetle and flapping its wings towards the giant sand beast.
Han Li hesitated slightly but didn't stop him. He simply stood in mid-air with his hands behind his back, watching Jin Tong's figure approach the giant sand beast.
Before Jin Tong arrived, he waved his two front claws, and the sound of air being torn apart echoed. Hundreds of sinister golden crystal lights flew out of his claws, splitting into two, slashing towards the sand beast from the left and right.
The giant sand beast seemed to sense Jin Tong's power. It stopped and, without any visible action, two thick sand pillars rose from the nearby sand sea, swirling and howling,迎ging the golden crystal lights sweeping in from both sides.
A layer of yellow light appeared on the surface of the two sand pillars, faintly emitting a wave of law power, making them seem indestructible.
Jin Tong's eyes flashed with golden light, and the left and right waves of golden crystal light intensified. The crystal lights collided with each other, merging into one, transforming into two dazzling golden rainbows hundreds of zhang long, and slashed onto the two sand pillars.
As soon as they came into contact, golden light and yellow light flashed simultaneously, followed by a crisp "噗" sound.
The two yellow sand pillars were instantly cut in two from the middle and collapsed!
The two golden rainbows continued towards the giant sand beast without stopping, reaching it in a flash.
The sand beast didn't dodge. A dark red light appeared in its giant mouth, forming a dark red vortex again, many times brighter than when it had killed the Golden Immortal before.
A huge swallowing force surged out of the sand beast's mouth, instantly engulfing the two golden rainbows.
The momentum of the two golden rainbows faltered, then they spun around and deviated from their original direction, flying into the vortex in the sand beast's mouth and disappearing.
Han Li's face showed a hint of surprise at this scene, but he still had no intention of attacking.
Jin Tong's body emitted a great golden light, transforming into a huge golden light ball and flying towards the sand beast.
The sand beast opened its blood-red mouth again, and the dark red vortex in its mouth brightened sharply.
A swallowing force, several times stronger than before, enveloped the golden light ball, and visible ripples appeared in the nearby void, collapsing downwards.
The golden light ball spun around and disappeared into the sand beast's mouth, being swallowed by it.
The white jade pendant on Han Li's waist flashed, and Pi Xiu's figure appeared.
"Master, boss has been swallowed. Do you want to save her?" Pi Xiu spoke in human language.
"No need," Han Li said with a light laugh, shaking his head.
"But..." Pi Xiu paused, about to say something.
At this moment, a loud noise interrupted him.
The giant sand beast suddenly let out a painful shriek, its huge body falling onto the sand sea, twisting and rolling violently, as if suffering great pain.
With a muffled "噗" sound!
A dazzling golden light shot out from the sand beast's body, piercing a large hole in it. Pale yellow and white pus flowed out of the wound, not knowing if it was blood or something else.
Then, a series of muffled sounds followed. Golden lights shot out from the sand beast's body one after another, piercing the sand beast's body with more and more holes.
The sand beast's body rolled more violently,发出驚天地惨叫。
"Harming me, little master, to worry in vain!" Seeing this scene, Pi Xiu's body flashed with white light, and it flew back to Han Li's waist.
"Roar..."
The giant sand beast suddenly raised its head, roaring miserably to the sky. Then, its body exploded with a "bang," turning into a sky of碎肉。
A golden beetle shot out, it was Jin Tong.
He also looked a little embarrassed at the moment. The golden armor on his body had a few dark spots, as if it had been corroded, but it was just a minor injury and not a major problem.
In its claws, Jin Tong held a yellow crystal the size of a human head, with dark red light flashing within, vaguely forming a vortex and emitting strong law power waves.
Han Li's eyebrows twitched slightly at this scene.
The last cry of the sand beast before its death made him feel something unusual.
As he pondered, the golden beetle transformed into Jin Tong flew to Han Li's side, circled him, and buzzed:
"Uncle, I'm done! Is there a reward?"
"I'll let you eat your fill later. By the way, let me see this sand crystal first." Han Li chuckled and reached out to take the crystal from Jin Tong's hand.
"This is mine."
Jin Tong shrank back nimbly, immediately transforming into a human form. At the same time, a golden light flashed in his hand, and the yellow crystal disappeared, not knowing where he had hidden it.
"This is not a place to stay for long. Let's go." Han Li shook his head and was about to wave his hand to summon the emerald green flying car to leave.
At this moment, an accident occurred!
The entire sand sea suddenly rumbled and shook without warning. The sand surged like flowing water, and huge sand waves rose into the air.
At the same time, an incomparably vast aura appeared under the sand sea, approaching with extreme speed.
Han Li's expression changed upon seeing this. He quickly grabbed Jin Tong, and at the same time, lightning flashed behind him, and a pair of golden wings appeared, they were the Wind Thunder Wings.
A dazzling flash of lightning, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
Just as Han Li's figure disappeared, the sand sea below suddenly exploded, and a huge head drilled out like lightning, and its grim mouth bit down.
But Han Li had already used Thunder Escape to leave, and the giant mouth bit into nothing.
A flash of lightning in the void a hundred miles away, and Han Li's figure appeared.
The huge head shook for a while, and another huge sand beast slowly drilled out of the ground, ten times larger than the sand beast just killed by Jin Tong.
Han Li's heart sank upon seeing this.
This giant sand beast had an immense aura, giving him a feeling of being infinitely close to a Grand Unity Realm cultivator.
Han Li's expression was slightly solemn, but he didn't flee immediately. In this unfamiliar sand sea area, if he ran blindly, he might attract other troubles.
Although the mountain-like sand beast head didn't have eyes, he could feel the anger within it. The giant mouth suddenly opened, and a thunderous roar rang out, causing the nearby void to vibrate.
Before Han Li could react, the sand beast's huge head suddenly shot out of the sand sea, rushing towards Han Li and Jin Tong.
This beast was huge, but its speed was as fast as lightning, almost instantly closing to within ten zhang of Han Li and Jin Tong.
Han Li's whole body flashed with golden light, and he shot backward.
The giant sand beast opened its big mouth, and dazzling dark red lights appeared in its mouth, condensing into a huge dark red vortex.
Boom!
A swallowing force that seemed to be able to suck away the heavens and the earth instantly enveloped Han Li and Jin Tong, who had just escaped less than ten miles.
