Chapter 1086: Ancient Sword
A deafening boom rang out as a wave of reddish-black light swept over the entire cave, causing it to collapse, and Han Li's group was buried under a vast volume of rubble.
Thankfully, everyone was well-versed in earth movement techniques, and they were able to burrow their way into the ground right as the cave collapsed.
However, as soon as they made their way underground, a burst of sinister cackling instantly rang out, immediately following which a giant black claw the size of a house emerged from deeper underground to make a grab for everyone.
The giant claw was attached to a massive, lizard-like creature, but its body was far more bloated than that of a lizard.
The creature was lurking underground, and its aura was completely indistinguishable from that of the earth around it, so its sneak attack had caught everyone completely off guard.
By the time everyone realized that there was something lurking underground, it was already too late to take evasive measures.
Right as everyone was about to fall into the grasp of the giant creature, Han Li swept a sleeve through the air to release a bolt of radiant golden lightning that struck the oncoming claw with a loud thump.
The bolt of lightning was tiny compared with the black claw, but it was able to tear through the latter with ease, following which it struck the giant beast's chest, blasting a hole the size of a water vat into its body.
The lizard-like creature let loose a blood-curdling howl, and it immediately attempted to flee deeper underground, but by then, Lei Yuce and the others had also begun lashing out against.
The creature was instantly overwhelmed by a devastating barrage of attacks, tearing its body to shreds.
As was the case with the wolf-like beasts from earlier, its body also disintegrated into black smoke, and even though it was underground, it still spread rapidly in all directions, staining all of the soil and rocks that it came into contact with black.
