Chapter 498: Sand Demon (2/2)
The entire ancient city had suddenly changed into a human eating castle. The ground, walls and even the ceiling could instantly change into quicksand and swallow a person.
In the midst of this boundless sand, Ye Chuan continuously swayed to dodge the traps of sand while fleeing from this terrifying ancient city.
After running around this city for a while, he understood that the hope of finding Hei Kui, Zhu Sijia and others in this ancient city was very small. Even if they had come here, either they had already left or were already swallowed by the sands. It used a lot of energy to continuously use Cyan Feather Technique to move and dodge. In addition, with sandstorm wreaking havoc all around and a powerful energy fluctuation in the air, he felt as if an invisible rope was binding him. If he didn’t leave this place, then he might be buried here forever!
Now, with sandstorm blotting out the sky and the sun, Ye Chuan couldn’t differentiate the direction and he couldn’t find the right path, so he decided to run straight towards one direction. He thought that if he ran straight through this ancient city, then he would inevitably reach the boundary of this ancient and break out of this encirclement.
Squeak! Along with a strange cry, a small shadow suddenly appeared in the front. When Ye Chuan was about to break out of the encirclement, this fellow came out again.
Then, an ill wind suddenly blew throughout this ancient city.
And Ye Chaun who was using Cyan Feather Technique to break out of this encirclement suddenly saw a terrifying scene. Countless skeletons crawled out from the sands and rushed towards him holding a sword.
The Iron Blooded Banner in the hands of Ye Chuan fluttered and suddenly streak across the sky. Then, along with cracking sounds, a group of skeleton soldiers that crawled out from under his feet fell apart.
Ye Chuan then flew in the sky and suddenly accelerated forward.
This time, he finally saw what that mysterious shadow was. It turned out to be a little monkey. It was strangely fast and slippery. And seeing Ye Chuan was rushing towards it, it quickly retreated, then stepping on the yellow sands on the ground, it instantly disappeared. Ye Chuan reached the place where it had disappeared and saw that the ground formed from yellow sands had already solidified.
What was that?
Was it the legendary Sand Demon that could manipulate sands?
Ye Chuan was puzzled, and he quickly recalled that Sand God mentioned in the diary of that child. But, he didn’t have the time to think about it as the ground below his legs fluctuated. This solidified ground that was already hard as a rock changed into a loose quicksand again. It then suddenly caved in, and a majestic invisible force surged. And at the same time, a pair of hands sprang out from below the quicksand and grabbed the ankle of Ye Chuan, wanting to pull him down. This pair of hands was small and swarthy. They belonged to that sand demon that had just fled. Its bodily form was not big, but its strength was astonishing. Looking at just its strength, it was even more powerful than some Rank 7 Daoist Master realm experts!
The strange sand demon hadn’t gone far. It was lurking below the quicksand and it suddenly launched a ferocious attack.
Now, on the ground, countless skeletons with bone swords rushed towards Ye Chuan and heavily besieged him. Under the ground, there was a sand demon with extraordinary strength lurking and it was pulling him down. If he was truly dragged into the yellow sands, then even if he had nine lives, he wouldn’t be able to avoid death. In addition, the sandstorm was getting even fiercer. It appeared as if it wanted to engulf the entire ancient city with sands.
Ye Chuan who had entered this ancient city by himself fell into the most dangerous situation. If he paused for even a bit, then he would be buried here forever. And like the dry bones inside that ancient grave, he would turn into the ghost without any chance of reincarnation.
The sand demon lurking underground was even more ferocious and craftier than many millennium evil spirits!
