What was that just now?
Tian Kuan almost rubbed his eyes to see if his vision was blurred. However, his logic eventually did not allow him to make such an embarrassing action.
But the puzzlement still remained in his mind. What was that just now?
The big mouth seemed to be made up of sand, could it be… a sand puppet?
Since when did the sand puppet hide there? Why had he not discovered the sand puppet? How had the sand puppet known what he was going to do?
Other than the view of the densely-packed blood fiends’ backs, he could not see a single trace of the sand puppet.
Furthermore… why was there a sand puppet?
Tian Kuan could not help but look at Ai Hui. Concentrated metal elemental energy that was infused with an unique aura flowed from his body. Tian Kuan was sure that he did not make a mistake.
A metal elementalist that brought along a sand puppet to the battlefield? That was ridiculous…
Could there be an earth elementalist hiding in the shadows?
Tian Kuan looked around vigilantly, but made no discoveries. His senses were extremely sharp, so if there was anyone hiding in the dark, he could definitely sense it.
However, when he thought about how he failed to sense the presence of the sand puppet, his confidence slightly wavered. He had encountered sand puppets many times in his life before, but this was the first time something like this happened.
Where was the sand puppet?
All he saw were blood fiends. His radar was unable to sense the slightest bit of the aura of a sand puppet. It was so weird! Tian Kuan felt puzzled. Previously, he could not sense the sand puppet, and right now, he could not locate the sand puppet. Could it be that he knew how to conceal himself?
The mini Lou Lans did not know that Tian Kuan was looking for them.
Currently, they were surrounding the unusual piece of flesh, securing it tightly. Every mini Lou Lan’s glowing yellow eyes flickered rapidly. This piece of meat contained the Blood of God that they had never seen before.
Because of the fact that Lou Lan had been studying the blood crystals, he had a deep understanding on the Blood of God as well. This piece of flesh had an aura that was different from any of the blood fiends they had encountered.
The blood spiritual force that was wrapped around the piece of flesh was completely absorbed by the mini Lou Lans in the blink of an eye.
Upon absorbing the piece of flesh, the aura of the mini Lou Lans had completely disappeared. If Tian Kuan could see this scene, he would understand why he could not find Lou Lan.
It was because the mini Lou Lans had emulated a special ability of the blood spiritual force that was wrapped around the piece of flesh. After getting injured numerous times, Tian Kuan was able to develop his own unique type of blood spiritual force that enabled him to seal and hide his aura. This characteristic was unique to him and no one else had this ability.
Tian Kuan named this ability [Shadowless]. Not only could this ability conceal the aura of his flesh and blood, but it could also conceal his own aura, enabling him to avoid detection his enemies’ radar.
After absorbing this unique type of blood spiritual force, the mini Lou Lans quickly decoded the secrets of the [Shadowless] ability and emulated it successfully.
[Shadowless] was able to hide the mini Lou Lans and the piece of flesh from the rest of the world. Tian Kuan simply could not find them. He had never expected someone to emulate his [Shadowless] and also never thought of how to counter it.
Previously, when Lou Lan broke down into numerous mini Lou Lans, the latter’s aura was extremely weak and scattered, preventing Tian Kuan from being able to sense their presence.
After emulating the [Shadowless] skill, the mini Lou Lans kept on analyzing this weird piece of flesh.
”Sand core, begin recording. Type of Blood of God, unknown. Source, unknown. Name of blood elementalist, unknown…”
The active mass of quicksand on the ground looked like dough that was being kneaded by a pair of invisible hands. The piece of flesh in the middle of the mass of quicksand was shrinking at an incredible rate.
All the mini Lou Lans’ glowing yellow eyes were flickering at an increasingly faster pace. Tremendous amounts of messages were transmitted to the sand core.
The Midnight sand core’s operating speed had become incredibly fast. The mysterious power from the piece of flesh allowed the sand core to operate at an all-out effort. The mini Lou Lans suddenly stopped moving. Their glowing yellow eyes formed waves of yellow phosphorescence that repeatedly swept across the piece of flesh.
As the piece of flesh was scanned by the yellow phosphorescence, it started to melt and evaporate like snow. Eventually, it became a puddle of blood. This puddle of fresh blood was mixed with a faint silvery color. Under the yellow phosphorescence, the silvery color became unusually bright.
The puddle of silvery-tinged blood continuously changed its form. It looked as if it was alive and had sensed danger, wiggling nonstop to resist the corrosion from the yellow phosphorescence.
The mini Lou Lans’ yellow phosphorescence kept on sweeping across the puddle of silver-tinged blood. It was as if they would not tire at all.
In order to decode the puddle of blood, the mini Lou Lans had completely ignored the outside world.
The mass of sand on the ground had become a lump of rock, remaining stationary.
The overly suspicious Tian Kuan scanned through his surroundings many times but ended up empty-handed.
Had the sand puppet left?
He was unsure and hesitant. He felt uneasy knowing that there was a sand puppet hiding out there in the dark. He did not know whether or not the sand puppet would launch a sudden attack on him.
However, Tian Kuan made up his mind very quickly and decided to give it another try. After this next attempt, whether he succeeded or not, he would retreat.
He felt danger from that cold-blooded youth. Yet, was it worth it for him to take such a huge risk and gamble his life against Ai Hui?
Of course not!
