Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 182 The Shurima Empire, Sending Troops to Lop Nur

Just as Qin Xiaonan returned to Shanghai, the Silverwing Ant Queen used her spatial powers to bring "Sha Yuan" to the Lop Nur region on the border.

A dark rift was torn open above Lop Nur, and the reshaped "Abyss of Fiends" slowly descended like a floating fortress. This former death ground of the undead now exuded an even more powerful pressure under the blessing of the Sun Disc.

"boom--"

When the solar disk above Shayuan resonated with the disk that had already been set up in the Lop Nur desert, the entire Gobi Desert trembled.

The two discs simultaneously emitted dazzling golden light, intertwining in the sky to form a huge triangular starburst.

Space began to distort, and a crack that stretched across the sky slowly opened, revealing the scorching sun and endless yellow sands of the African continent on the other side.

"roar--"

With a deafening roar, a terrifying army of demons surged out from the spatial rift.

First to step forward was the desert giant lizard army led by the lord of giant lizards. These enormous creatures covered in scales caused the earth to tremble with every step they took. Close behind was a tribe of venomous snakes led by a small viper lord. As they snaked forward, their scales rubbed together, producing a chilling rustling sound.

The Silverwing Queen's ant tribe is led by two ant monarchs, whose shimmering silver carapaces reflect a cold light under the blazing sun.

The last to appear was the vanguard general of the Shurima Empire—the Sandstorm Emperor.

His towering body was entirely composed of flowing yellow sand, and every step he took created a small sandstorm beneath his feet.

Those eyes, burning with golden flames, swept across the Lop Nur desert, and wherever their gaze fell, the sand and gravel seemed to tremble uneasily.

Lop Nur once killed Azir's subordinate viper lord, and Qin Xiaonan was determined to destroy them from that time.

"kill."

The voice of the Sandstorm Emperor was like the howling wind in the desert.

Without further ado, he raised his hand and waved it, and the yellow sand behind him transformed into a vast army that charged towards the enemy camp.

The battle broke out in an instant.

The local demon tribes of Lop Nur had long since given up suppressing the sun disk.

But when they saw this suddenly appearing alien army, they immediately realized that a real threat had arrived.

The desert shimmered under the scorching sun, and the sand dunes stretched to the horizon like solidified golden waves.

An unprecedented and brutal battle against demons is about to begin in this Gobi Desert, which has been silent for thousands of years.

"Ouch——"

With a mournful howl, the Sand Shadow Wolf King launched the first attack.

Its silvery-gray fur gleamed with a metallic sheen in the sunlight, and strangely, no footprints were left on the sand where its four paws trod.

Seeing this, the lord of the giant lizards slammed its thick tail heavily against the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. The two enormous creatures collided with a deafening roar, their claws and fangs flashing with a blinding light in the air.

The wolf king was incredibly fast; it transformed into a silver lightning bolt and rapidly circled around the giant lizard lord.

Each attack left scratch marks on the monitor lizard's thick scales.

But the lord of the giant lizard remained calm, suddenly opening its blood-red maw, and a jet of dark green venom shot out like an arrow. The wolf king narrowly dodged to the side, the venom landing on the sand and instantly corroding a deep pit that emitted blue smoke.

Meanwhile, the battle between the Sand Devouring Scorpion Lord and the Silverwing Ant Clan Monarch was equally fierce.

The scorpion's enormous pincers opened and closed with a whooshing sound, and the venom on its stinger gleamed with a ghostly blue light in the sunlight.

The ant-king displayed astonishing agility; its transparent wings vibrated at a high frequency, tracing eerie zigzag paths through the air. "Hiss—"

Suddenly, the scorpion plunged its tail deep into the sand, and the sand grains within a radius of a hundred meters immediately began to wriggle as if they were alive.

Countless sand scorpions surged from the ground, forming a terrifying swarm of insects. The ant king sneered, his antennae emitting a peculiar frequency.

The next moment, the ground suddenly collapsed, and tens of thousands of soldier ants swarmed out, and the two Zerg armies instantly clashed.

The most brutal and bloody battles were those between ordinary demons.

The Sand Shadow Wolves, utilizing their speed advantage, appear and disappear unpredictably on the battlefield. They work in small groups, specifically targeting the monitor lizard's relatively soft belly.

The giant lizard army, with its size advantage, can often knock away several sand wolves with a single tail whip.

"boom--!"

A deafening explosion erupted in the center of the battlefield. The giant lizard lord's massive tail, covered in golden scales, swept across like a whip of divine punishment, stirring up sand and dust that stretched for miles around.

The Sand Shadow Wolf King had no time to dodge; its proudly swift movements appeared utterly pale and powerless in the face of this earth-shattering attack.

"Crack!"

A cracking sound rang out, and the wolf king's silver-gray body was whipped and tossed high into the air like a rag doll.

In mid-air, its proud steel mane and wolf fur snapped inch by inch, and its tough flesh ripped apart under the tremendous impact, with blood and bone fragments raining down.

When the wolf king crashed heavily onto the rock wall, its entire body was twisted and deformed, leaving a shocking bloodstain on the sandstone.

The lord of the giant lizard slowly retracted its tail, its golden vertical pupils flashing with disdain.

The Lord of the Giant Lizard was already one of the best among monarchs. It charged into battle in campaigns against the Egyptian undead, the Serpent Ancestor, and the Emerald Tree Lord. Therefore, Tsar Azir rewarded it by strengthening its body with the Sun Disc, further enhancing its strength and bringing it to the pinnacle of monarch power.

The Sand Shadow Wolf King struggled to stand up, but its shattered spine only allowed it to twitch in vain.

Its once terrifying, eerie green wolf eyes now reflected the approaching shadow of death. The Giant Lizard Lord strode forward unhurriedly, its heavy footsteps echoing across the battlefield like a death knell.

"Woo!" The wolf king let out a final mournful cry, a sound filled with resentment and despair.

The lord of the giant lizards looked down at his defeated opponent and suddenly opened his blood-red maw.

The blazing fire of the sun gathered in its throat, and in the next moment, a torrent of golden-red flames completely engulfed the wolf king's mangled body.

When the flames died down, all that remained was a pile of charred bones and a wolf's head with a horrified expression.

The Sand Shadow Wolf King was completely crushed by the Giant Lizard Lord in less than three rounds.

Some of the Sand Shadow Wolves had already prostrated themselves on the ground, whimpering in submission.

The Scorpion Lord's side is also showing signs of defeat.

Although its venom is ferocious, the ant king's carapace provides amazing protection.

What's even more terrifying is that the soldier ants completely disregarded casualties, rushing forward one after another to bite, and the opponent's unexpected spatial abilities.

One of the scorpion's pincers had been chewed up and was now incomplete.

The battle was completely one-sided. The Shurima Empire's demon army was stronger than the demon tribes of Lop Nur, and with the two sun disks providing additional support on the battlefield, the enemy had no way to resist.
