Chapter 1094 The Central Ruins (2)
Yun Lintian's group consisted of Han Bingling, Yun Qianxue, Mu Qiuxue, Lin Xinyao, Yun Chenyu, Lei Zhenxiang, Lei Feifei, Qin Wuji, and Ren Mingzhu. As for Master Bai, Qingqing, Linlin, and Mumu, they were not counted in the quota.
Meanwhile, Gong Yanhong and the other Black Wings group's elders stayed behind, waiting for everyone in the city.
Yun Lintian briefly glanced at the ten men and women who won the quota. He could only recognize Gu Xiao, the one he saw in the battle yesterday. As for the rest, all of them were at the middle and high level of the Monarch Profound Realm.
Gu Xiao seemed to notice Yun Lintian's gaze. He turned to look at him and nodded slightly. Before coming here, Hong Mei had strictly told him to get along with Yun Lintian's group well. Although he had no idea why his master attached great importance to a saint like Yun Lintian, he didn't dare to neglect her order.
Yun Lintian smiled and returned with a nod before looking at the guard leader in the distance.
At this moment, the guard leader walked to the wall of the sandstorm and raised his hand gently. A bright yellow light suddenly flashed, and a miraculous scene happened in front of everyone.
The thick wall of the sandstorm was suddenly separate, revealing a clear path without any obstruction.
Yuan Duyi turned around and beckoned Gu Xiao and the others. "Go. The path will be open again one month later."
Gu Xiao didn't say anything and quickly walked into the ruins without hesitation, followed by the other nine.
Yun Lintian looked at the path ahead briefly and said to everyone. "Let's go. Yu'er, come closer to me."
Yun Chenyu obediently held Yun Lintian's hand, and everyone immediately followed Gu Xiao and the others into the ruins.
As they disappeared from everyone's line of sight, the guard leader raised his hand again, and the wall of sandstorm immediately returned to its original state. Those onlookers who came for the first time immediately realized that it was impossible to sneak in. Unless they didn't want to live anymore.
Inside the Central Ruins, it was constantly embroiled in violent sandstorms, and this was only at the edge of the ruins.
Yun Lintian's group stood on the place and channeled their profound energy to block the sandstorms while scanning the place curiously.
"I'm afraid that even a monarch will find it difficult to stay here." Lei Feifei said. She was at the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm, yet she felt this place was full of threats.
"Indeed." Lei Zhenxiang said. "However, the energy in this place is really abundant. It's several times higher than the outside."
When he said this, he couldn't help drawing profound energy into his body.
"Look on your right." Master Bai suddenly said. His voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
When they looked at the location he told them, a half-meter-tall cactus could be seen. With a glance, everyone could see it wasn't an ordinary cactus. It was actually a high-rank magical plant.
"I have never seen this kind of a magical plant before." Qin Wuji frowned slightly. He couldn't recognize this cactus.
Suddenly, Linlin stood on Yun Lintian's shoulder and stared at the sand beneath the cactus. "There's something beneath it."
Just as everyone was looking at the cactus, the ground suddenly shook, and a gigantic earthworm-like creature jumped out with its mouth wide open toward everyone.
From its aura, it was definitely a Monarch Profound Beast!
"Leave it to me." Lei Zhenxiang was the first to react. He dashed forward and stuck out his palm, which was covered with lightning sparks.
Boom!
The palm hit the earthworm's head violently, and Lei Zhenxiang felt like he was hitting a steel plate.
The earthworm didn't budge an inch. It roared angrily and opened its mouth, trying to swallow Lei Zhenxiang.
Ren Mingzhu's expression changed when she saw this. Her figure flashed and reappeared beside the earthworm. With a loud battle cry, she swept her leg, which had transformed into a giant whale's tail, at it.
Boom!
This time, the earthworm was sent flying like a cannonball and landed heavily on the ground. Lei Zhenxiang and Ren Mingzhu seemed to have a tacit understanding. Both of them immediately launched the following attacks on the earthworm simultaneously.
However, before their attacks could land, the earthworm swiftly buried its head in the ground and disappeared into the sea of sand, making Lei Zhenxiang and Ren Mingzhu stare at the empty space helplessly.
"It runs away," Linlin said softly.
The earthworm was smart enough and knew it wasn't their opponent. It immediately fled without hesitation.
Lei Zhenxiang returned to the group with an embarrassing smile. "Sorry. I let it go." He then turned to Ren Mingzhu. "Thank you for helping me."
Ren Mingzhu brushed her long hair slightly and said. "Its body is really tough. It's like I kicked a tortoise shell."
"Well, the earth-attributed profound beast is like this. Most of them have an impressive defense." Lei Feifei said.
In fact, she was also shocked by the sturdiness of the earthworm. After getting kicked by Ren Mingzhu, who was a Blue Moon whale, it was actually fine. This was definitely the toughest profound beast she had ever seen.
"Look like we should stay together." Qin Wuji said solemnly. He was certain there were many profound beasts like this earthworm waiting for them as they ventured deeper. It would be an unwise choice to separate.
Everyone turned to look at Yun Lintian. After getting along for a period of time, Lei Feifei and the others had long treated him as a leader.
Yun Lintian, who was scanning the surrounding with the Eyes of Heaven, nodded and said. "Elder Qin is right. We shouldn't separate."
As he finished his sentence, the Heaven Piercing Sword on his neck suddenly expanded and shot out, fiercely stabbing the ground a hundred meters away.
Accompanying by a bestial roar, a huge bearded dragon slowly got out of its camouflage, struggling for a while and lost its life.
This scene immediately shocked everyone.
Yun Lintian waved his hand, and the sword immediately flew back to him. If he didn't check with the Eyes of Heaven, he wouldn't have noticed this bearded dragon who blended with the environment perfectly.
