Chapter 116 Sandworm Swarm

They said they made the right bet.

Actually, this matter itself wasn't really gambling.

After all, the two people had run out of options four hours ago, so this was their only choice.

"Let me see."

As Jiang Feng spoke, he also reached out and pressed his hand on it.

A cool sensation came from my palm.

He was startled and couldn't help but exclaim, "It really is a physical entity! Could this mirage actually be a physical projection that transcends space?"

Even after saying that, he felt like his left and right brains were fighting each other.

Can spatial projections possess a physical form?

This is something that cannot be explained by ordinary martial arts techniques.

Zhang Ruanruan, who was standing to the side, had already fully accepted this premise and analyzed it for him: "Then King Wu once studied the starry sky in your Donglin Wasteland and even cut through star fields. In addition, this place used to be the main battlefield between humans and the Dark Sea. It's not surprising that there would be such a projection, is it?"

During the previous four hours on the road, Jiang Feng had told Zhang Ruanruan everything that happened between him and Lin Lu in the ruins of King Wu from his perspective, including King Wu's diary.

"Possibly."

Jiang Feng stroked his chin, and after thinking for a long time without any results, he simply gave up.

"Forget about the principles, let's go inside and talk about it."

"6

..good."

Zhang Ruanruan was extremely weak, and she really wanted to find a place to rest.

If there really is a hidden paradise inside, the two of them might even find clues to return to Lan City.

Just as they were about to search for the entrance along the edge of the building, they suddenly stopped in unison.

The ground beneath my feet was extremely soft, and the gravel made a soft, crunching sound when I stepped on it. The wind carried an unpleasant, fishy smell, as if the rotting corpse of some creature was buried deep in the sand.

Then, they clearly felt it—

The sand beneath my feet was trembling.

First came a very slight tremor.

Immediately afterwards, the tremor expanded rapidly, as if something enormous was drilling upwards from deep underground.

"underground!"

Zhang Ruanruan's eyes sharpened.

next moment.

"Boom—!"

The sand dune in front of them suddenly exploded!

A cloud of sand and gravel rose into the sky, and a sandworm, grayish-brown in color and covered with a thick carapace, emerged from the ground.

It opened its ring-shaped mouthparts, which were filled with countless serrated teeth. Thick acid dripped from the edges of the mouthparts and fell onto the sand, making a "sizzling" corrosive sound.

And there's more than one.

The surrounding sand dunes burst open one after another.

Ten items.

Dozens of items.

Hundreds of them.

Countless mutated sandworms surged out from underground and surrounded the two in the blink of an eye.

In the distance, a sand worm king, several times the size of an ordinary sand worm, slowly emerged halfway out of its body, its scarlet eyes fixed on Jiang Feng and Zhang Ruanruan.

"Oh no, it's a strange sand worm."

Zhang Ruanruan frowned, but remained calm. A flash of azure Daoist energy emanated from her, and she was about to make her move.

But as soon as she raised her hand, a faint light appeared on her chest.

It is star marrow with half of its power extracted.

After being devoured and corrupted by Ktugya, it became too unstable within Zhang Ruanruan's body. So unstable that whenever the latter tried to mobilize her qi and blood, it would forcibly disrupt the rhythm of qi and blood circulation, forcing the latter to suppress this power in order to barely maintain her own balance.

Zhang Ruanruan let out a muffled groan.

Jiang Feng's eyes narrowed, and he reached out and pulled her behind him.

"The stellar marrow within your body is unstable, let me do it."

Zhang Ruanruan was slightly taken aback when she saw the back of the person blocking her way and their confident demeanor.

There was a time when she was the one standing in front of the other, but now, this guy's level has surpassed hers.

For no apparent reason, she thought of her senior brother who had died on Tianyuan Star.

"But there are many monsters," she said worriedly.

Sandworms, a type of strange beast commonly found in the wilderness, have been recorded in textbooks. The smaller ones are roughly at the early stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, while the larger ones are at the middle or peak stages.

They are not particularly strong, but they have a large number of them.

"many?"

Jiang Feng listened, smiled, and picked up the sickle.

It was just him and Zhang Ruanruan here, so there was no need to hide the sickle anymore.

"These are mostly good things."

After saying this, both Zhang Ruanruan and the sand worm king were visibly taken aback.

This is a good thing...

?

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Feng had already charged forward with his sickle.

"roar!"

The sandworm king clearly sensed his intention. It roared angrily, and then the sandworm swarm stirred.

Dozens of sandworms simultaneously opened their mouthparts, spraying out clumps of dark green liquid.

The venom formed a dense rain of venom in mid-air, pouring down with a pungent, fishy smell.

Zhang Ruanruan instinctively wanted to remind her.

However, the next moment, Jiang Feng completely ignored the rain and charged straight at the monsters without taking any precautions.

"Sizzle sizzle—!"

The dark green liquid exploded around his body, but it seemed to be blocked by an invisible defense.

With the Overlord Blood Armor, the Crimson Rock Shield, a Xuan-level martial art, is no longer enough.

Now that he no longer has access to clean water to replenish his energy, he's too lazy to use this martial art anymore.

Then, Jiang Feng shifted his feet, and the Fire Shadow suddenly erupted.

"Burning Shadow Flowing Light Step!"

Dark red afterimages flickered continuously among the sand dunes.

He was like a burning black and red lightning bolt, leaving afterimages as he charged into the swarm of sandworms. The Darkin Scythe swept across, instantly severing several sandworms in half, their charred flesh and blood splattering out, only to be incinerated by the ensuing bursts of Shadowfire.

Kill 12 sandworms

[Base Strength permanently increased by 18%!]

[Base health permanently increased by 180!]

The long-awaited system notification sound rang in my mind.

Jiang Feng's excitement intensified.

"So strong."

A hint of shock flashed across Zhang Ruanruan's eyes from behind.

After spending so much time together, she had a general understanding that the guy in front of her was probably following the "fighting to sustain fighting" path, which only existed in ancient martial arts families on Tianyuan Star.

This path is different from ordinary cultivation; once you start, you can never stop. You need to fight, fight, and fight some more.

It can be said that this is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

As Zhang Ruanruan was thinking, the Sandworm King emitted another sharp hiss.

The remaining sandworms around suddenly began to wriggle wildly, surging forward like a tide.

Jiang Feng chuckled, bent his knees, and suddenly shattered the sand beneath his feet, leaping into the air.

Within the heart, the soul of the true dragon roared.

The True Flame of Hell condensed in his palm.

"Burning Heaven Palm!"

Three massive, crimson palms slammed down in succession, their power overwhelming the sky.

At the same time, the effects of the Divine Dragon Flame Set were triggered!

More than forty fire dragons roared out from between the palm lines, frantically bouncing, exploding, and bouncing again among the sandworm swarm!

"Boom boom boom boom boom—!"

"6

The entire sand dune instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire.

The high temperature of over 1,000 degrees Celsius burned the sand grains into red crystals, and the sandworm swarms were turned into charcoal in large swathes by the fire dragon projectiles.

In less than 5 minutes.

It is likely that nearly a hundred sandworms were burned to black ash.

The system's voice was so loud in Jiang Feng's mind that he didn't have time to check it. He could only wait until he rested to look at it slowly.

Although he knew he hadn't broken through yet, the feeling coming from his body was definitely right!

Jiang Feng felt a tingling sensation throughout his body, followed by a feeling of solidity that stretched outwards from his bone marrow.

The body's Qi and blood surged and churned wildly through the meridians at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a flood bursting its banks. Every blood vessel seemed to be refilled with molten lava, intense and abundant.

He laughed loudly at the sand worm king in the distance, "Again!"
