Chapter 401: Let’s Give It a Try
Seeing the sand sculpture Divine General with three heads and six arms appear, Li Rui’s lips curled slightly, almost laughing out loud, but felt that it was too much like rejoicing in others’ misfortune, so he held it back forcibly.
From the Great Demon Black Law and Moment Wind Nine Curves, he had already confirmed that the things here were definitely related to the Upper Realm, so the gates and barriers wouldn’t be too easy.
With the Demon Race bosses of level fifty, it is unlikely they can pass through unscathed.
No matter what, now those sands have gathered into a giant ten zhang tall, forcing all surrounding Demons into silence.
The Six Old Immortals were originally rushing into the great hall, internally calculating how to monopolize if a great treasure appeared, but were suddenly blocked by this thing.
The six Demons swiftly dispersed and directly used spells to attack the sand giant.
Being able to block here is certainly not a soft touch, regardless of what it is, try hitting it first.
However, their mood soon sank because after all the spells hit the giant, it didn’t stir anything. Its body was blown away by a small half, but more yellow sand quickly filled it up.
Seeing this scene, the Six Old Immortals had the same thought without discussing.
Run.
It wasn’t due to cowardice, but because the enemy was too obviously strong while they were weak, and more importantly, they were deep in the Death Sand Land. If they didn’t escape before the giant made a move, and then couldn’t rival it, they might not be able to get away.
They each used their methods to retreat, at the same time, the giant seemed to awaken, staring at the Six Old Immortals with the four eyes on its face.
Then, those six Demon Race members felt an overwhelming pressure looming from above.
The six hands of the giant crashed towards them, perfectly matching six against six.
Now it tested their solid strength, even though far away, the watching Demons knew it was hard to withstand.
Li Rui said to the Herculean and Cheng Mingyue: "Get ready, it’s our turn."
He immediately judged the outcome, while other Demons stretched their necks, watching intently.
Boom!!!
The giant’s six arms smashed down, forcing the Six Old Immortals to counterattack, the vast forces clashed, kicking up a sandstorm, making it impossible to see the scenery within.
The watching Demons gasped, then burst into heated discussion.
"What happened!"
"Quick, use your Divine Eye Skill to check."
"Too far, can’t see clearly."
Amidst their discussion, three figures rushed out from the sandstorm, their steps wavering but covering up to escape, scared to be slow by a step, for now, it seemed the other three couldn’t get out.
However, the difficulty for these Demon Race members to retreat unscathed was high, because the previous barriers blocked their retreat again.
More importantly, they weren’t in peak state like before, even though they successfully retreated, they were injured.
"Woo—"
The Fierce Ghost Array appeared even more ferocious than before, the ghostly cries and howls could be heard even from far.
Poof!
One of the Old Immortals was torn apart by the fierce ghosts and might soon join them, but the other two relied on their profound cultivation to escape.
After narrowly surviving, they barely retreated to a safe zone, collapsing on the ground, immediately being attended to by many clan members.
Perhaps in the future, these two Demons would become new legends in the desert, if they could recover, they might brag that they were the only two from the Demon Race who survived under the giant’s hands.
After such a twist, the other Demons began contracting according to their camps.
The strongest six leaders had four dead and the remaining two uncertain of life or death, disrupting the power balance among the sand thief clans.
Moreover, the Six Old Immortals were the strongest among the sand thieves, they had used actions to prove how terrifying this eerie sand land was, other Demons basically had no need to risk it, thus it’s clear they would soon refocus on mastering other areas of the desert.
Some leaders might think, since they can’t obtain the great treasure now, they might as well aim to grow stronger, waiting for a future opportunity as the strongest force in the desert, naturally able to hold the palace and wait for another chance.
Various forces were eager to move, if not for the overly complex situation here, some Demons might have already fought.
Now, Li Rui prepared to start from where the Six Old Immortals had set out, since the situation there was the clearest, other Demons had always done this too, if choosing another path, there might be unknown circumstances.
Passing by the Snake Demon, Li Rui casually asked: "Why don’t you go find a leader?"
At this time, the Snake Demon was still gazing longingly at the palace, probably imagining how sensational it would be if he broke through the giant.
Hearing Li Rui’s question, he snapped back to reality: "Oh, thanks for the reminder, I need to go."
Though he never thought much of Li Rui at this clueless newbie, he didn’t dislike him either, he thanked and tried to leave, but suddenly noticed the direction Li Rui headed.
"What are you doing?" the Snake Demon asked.
Li Rui said: "I mentioned earlier, trying it out, it’s my turn now."
"...."
The Snake Demon squinted, finding it hard to understand this.
After the Six Old Immortals’ failure, he was sure no Demon would have similar thoughts, was this guy crazy?
But inexplicably, even if the other party went to his death, he wanted to stay and watch.
At this moment, Li Rui had arrived at the position the Six Old Immortals set out from, unnoticed by many Demons due to the chaos.
"Stay close to me," he instructed the Herculean.
"Yes," the latter replied.
Zhu Wen leaned nervously over the edge of the pack basket. Although Li Rui hadn’t shared the plan before, he now understood clearly, despite anticipating, he was still apprehensive at the moment.
But being nervous was useless because Li Rui had already charged into the Death Sand Land, Cheng Mingyue and the Herculean closely following left and right.
"Don’t worry, follow Mister and you’ll be fine."
Yuan Erliang gripped the pack basket as they bounced with the Herculean’s steps, comforting with words.
Zhu Wen mimicked and secured himself, preventing being jolted out.
Li Rui and Cheng Mingyue instantly crossed the outer flowing sand area and like before, were met with whips formed by sand.
By now, the outer Demons noticed their actions.
"Look!"
The Demons belatedly realized, seeing that after the Six Old Immortals’ failure, someone dared challenge the sand land.
The most shocked was the Snake Demon, who just thought Li Rui was being stubborn, did not expect he was serious?
