Chapter 306 – Fighting (1/2)

With a unique field of vision, Shao Xuan could even see the legs and long tail of the Quicksand Beast, which were full of scales, under the sands.

Shao Xuan could not see objects through the obstacles before. As the ability improved, Shao Xuan could gradually penetrate through some obstacles. When they were in the tribe, Shao Xuan used this ability to see the things buried under the soil layer in the house of the two thieves. But the thickness that can be penetrated was limited.

The deeper the things were under the ground, the more ambiguous Shao Xuan’s sight was. Therefore, although he could see the other part of the Quicksand Beast under the sand, he couldn’t observe it carefully.

When encountering strange or unfamiliar beasts during hunting, Shao Xuan would also use this method, but he did not have that much time to observe the prey carefully while hunting.

As long as there was enough time, Shao Xuan could observe many things such as the fighting habits of the beasts and the weaknesses that were prone to occur during the fighting.

Shao Xuan’s eyes shifted towards the Quicksand Beast, which was avoiding attacks of the slaves on the edge of the Oasis.

After a short while, five more people were swallowed by the Quicksand Beast.

However, Shao Xuan had not been able to find out the weaknesses of the body structure of the Quicksand Beast through its perfect defense. At the moment, they could only break through its outer scales by uninterrupted attacks in order to cause some damage.

Suddenly, Shao Xuan’s eyes condensed, as he found out that the powerful legs of the Quicksand Beast buried under the sand were bending.

“Everybody move back! it’s going to jump towards this side!!” shouted Shao Xuan.

As soon as Shao Xuan said these words, on the edge of Oasis where the Quicksand Beast was located, a humongous amount of sand was lifted up as the huge body of the Quicksand Beast jumped out of the sand. Its whole body had completely got out of the sand, and the dust was brought up like a reverse waterfall generally rushing upwards, but then falling after reaching a high point. While leaping into the air, the Quicksand Beast’s long tail was still moving vigorously and making adjustments.

The Quicksand Beast had lost its patience. It didn’t intend to continue fighting against those people there. It jumped out of the battle circle, but it didn’t shrink back due to difficulties. Instead, it jumped directly over the five-meter-high wall which was made of wood and stone outside the Oasis, as it jumped into the Oasis and began to destroy it.

As Shao Xuan reminded everyone in time, Lei, Tuo and Su Gu, who was being protected by Wu Shi, avoided a tragedy again. But Shao Xuan, who had intended to avoid the beast, paused – he found a ‘gap’ on the Quicksand Beast.

The Quicksand Beast, who jumped into the Oasis, swayed its long tail intensely. Its strong front and rear legs constantly moved as the hard body that was like an armored vehicle knocking down sandstone houses directly.

Dust and sand splashed around everyone, as if there was a sandstorm. Meanwhile, the sandstorm maker also moved around within the Oasis and it brought sandstorms and destruction wherever it went.

The slaves began to attack disorderly, and some slaves even accidentally injured their team members.

Chi Shi shouted while trying to stabilise the people, but the slaves who had been stationed in the Oasis didn’t cooperate with the people brought by Chi Shi. For a lengthy time, the Oasis was in chaos.

Wu Shi took Su Gu out of the Oasis and observed the situation over there.

The room that Shao Xuan just stood in had collapsed due to being swept by the tail of the Quicksand Beast. Taking advantage of the situation, Shao Xuan jumped to a tree, whistled, made a few gestures, and then immediately jumped away, avoiding the attack of the Quicksand Beast but not keeping away.

“What does Ah-Xuan want to do?”, Lei asked Tuo, wanting to rush over but being stopped by Tuo.

“I don’t know what he’s doing. But since Ah-Xuan didn’t let us go there, we’d better wait here.” said Tuo.

While the slaves in the Oasis were struggling with the Quicksand Beast, a figure flew in the sky and a talon cut the back of Quicksand Beast.

The eagle talons collided with the scales on the back of the Quicksand Beast, making a “squeaky” sound, just like metal cutting.

The scales on the back were the hardest body parts of the Quicksand Beast, but Chacha’s talons were also sharp, leaving a deep trace on the back of the Quicksand Beast. Although it didn’t bleed, its flesh was about to break.

Looking at the eagle flying in the sky, the eyes of the Quicksand Beast flashed a golden light. Its paw swept away a house in front and it roared towards the eagle in the air. The folds on its neck raised up because of the roaring, just like an angry lion.

In the air, Chacha seemed to be provocative deliberately, as it also screamed back at the Quicksand Beast and attacked the beast with its talons.

After several times, the Quicksand Beast looked up again and roared towards the sky.

A perfect chance!

Shao Xuan looked at the raised “cloak” on the neck of the Quicksand Beast and locked the cracked gap under the “cloak”. His legs bent, jumped with great power and rushed towards the gap of the Quicksand Beast like a silent wind.

The Quicksand Beast, which was roaring towards the air, felt something was wrong. It almost stopped roaring instinctively, moved the bones of the neck and wanted to close the gap.

However, it was too late.

Shao Xuan, who rushed out, held the handle of the stone knife with both hands, and stabbed the knife into the narrow gap that was about to close.

Others couldn’t observe the gap because it was the same color as other body parts of the beast and was covered with scales. However, the scales were sparsely distributed. It was not easy to discover because it’s color was not distinguishable and it had been covered by folds.

The moment when the stone knife penetrated, Shao Xuan only felt as if the stone knife in his hand had pierced the gathering place of densely piled fine stones. The resistance was extremely high, and the sound of the bones rubbing the stone knife could be heard clearly.
