Chapter 1105: Chapter 798: Blood Clan Ancestor (Part 1)

Shen Tang frowned and said, "But the energy fluctuation there is very vague, and there’s a feeling I can’t quite describe, like there’s an invisible barrier blocking my spiritual power, preventing further exploration."

"The anomaly further proves that something is indeed happening there. Let’s go check it out," Shen Li said.

So the group continued to move forward.

But unexpectedly, danger arrived before they reached the place.

Xiao Jin reacted the fastest, springing up from the ground like a spring and shouted, "Watch out for the sand, there’s something inside!"

Almost at the same moment his words fell, several earth-brown shadows suddenly shot out from the sand, darting like arrows with wide gaping jaws coming straight at them.

It was a group of sand venom snakes, three to four meters long, yellow-brown all over, blending almost seamlessly with the sand, hidden without a trace.

This is also the deadliest beast in the desert, where travelers have the highest mortality rate, unexpectedly bitten with almost no chance for rescue in such an environment.

Shen Li flicked his fingertips, and several clusters of Fox Fire flew out.

The venomous snakes instantly turned into flames and were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

However, dangers are always unpredictable.

They continued to move forward and encountered various poisonous creatures.

Some creatures were as small as a finger, but with extremely strong poison, just a tiny bit can cause a mature Beastman to die instantly.

Xiao Jin slapped a poisonous insect dead with his claws, unable to resist cussing, "This damn place, there’s stuff under all the sand, kill one after another endlessly, really disgusting."

Lu Xiao’s wings flapped, several Wind Blades glided across the ground, slicing through several venomous snakes’ bodies.

He also noticed something amiss, saying deeply, "Compared to other places we’ve been, this desert seems to have more poisonous creatures, and they are more dangerous, like there’s some deliberate intent, as if... purposefully isolating the Foreign Clan from entering."

Shen Li squinted at the far poisonous sun, narrowing his long fox eyes.

Under his fox form, those eyes appeared even slimmer and more charming, endlessly alluring, "This implies that perhaps we’ve indeed found the right place this time."

The more blockades encountered, the more it signifies secrets are hidden there.

They continued to hurry their way swiftly.

Suddenly, Shen Tang appeared to have detected something, a massive underground creature was rapidly approaching.

Her pupils constricted, blurting out instantly, "Be careful, something’s coming! Run!"

Almost as the words came out, the ground began to shake violently.

Immediately, the sand underfoot started sinking, as if something was rolling and wriggling beneath.

Xiao Jin and the others quickly retreated.

The next second, the sand they had just been standing on collapsed violently, forming a massive quicksand vortex, sand grains rapidly pouring into the center like water.

Something terrifyingly massive was swimming beneath the sand.

The creature moved incredibly fast, Shen Tang’s spiritual power couldn’t even see its full shape, only judging its trajectory from the huge ridge line rising on the sand surface.

The ridge line darted from the east to the west in mere moments, like a giant snake meandering in the sea of sand... judging from the undulation of the sand surface, that thing underground was at least tens of meters long!!!

What, what kind of monster is this?!!

"Damn, what is this thing? How come I’ve never heard of such monsters in the desert?" Xiao Jin’s fur stood on end.

Shen Li was also amazed, sending a Fox Fire of destruction over.

The flames exploded a deep pit on the sand surface, but that thing had already swiftly swum elsewhere, the Fox Fire only charred a heap of sand.

Lu Xiao dived down from the sky, Wind Blades traced after the ridge line cutting through the sand surface.

The sand surface was sliced open with a long crack, vaguely exposing a dark segment of its body, but the next second it was covered again by the surging quicksand, the Wind Blades cut into the sand, losing much of their force.

Shen Tang’s spiritual power firmly locked onto the movement under the sand, but her spiritual power was disturbed by some force upon probing deep into the sand layer, like the signal was interfered with, intermittently.

"It’s heading towards your right side!" She could barely judge through the surface sand waves.

Almost before the words landed, Xiao Jin’s foot slumped, another vortex opened its abyssal maw, like a devil picking its prey to devour, pulling it down.

"Ow!" His front paw just exerted force to jump, but his hind leg already sank in.

Shen Tang grabbed onto the fur on the back of his neck, Xiao Jin leveraged force with a powerful leap, darted out before the vortex closed, rolled a few times on the ground and quickly got back up, shaking his fur.
