As if to fulfill her words, the boars that had been relentlessly ramming the cave suddenly stopped. Their roars gradually turned into terrified barks, and then, starting from the outermost part, they all fled out of the valley.
In an instant, dust flew up as the boars fled for their lives as if they had gone mad. They had completely lost their minds and just kept charging forward.
Those that ran too slowly were caught up by the boars behind them, who then trampled them mercilessly underfoot.
The screams came one after another—one person fell and a whole group followed suit, and in an instant, a large number of people collapsed, turning the place into a complete mess.
But the boars behind them continued their relentless charge, trampling their companions, mates, and even offspring underfoot... one after another...
A thick stench of blood permeated the entire valley. The boars that were fleeing for their lives ten seconds ago were engulfed in the next second, leaving only their mostly crushed corpses.
The land was stained red with blood, and the scene was as terrifying as hell.
Meanwhile, Nan Xian and her group had already jumped down from the cave.
They followed closely behind the boar, their speed equally impressive.
At this moment, with disaster looming, no one cares about being mortal enemies just minutes before. Faced with an unshakeable natural calamity, their only option is to flee for their lives.
The magma was surging rapidly underground, ready to erupt, and Nan Xian could already smell a strong rotten egg odor permeating the air.
This is the smell of sulfur dioxide emitted before a volcanic eruption.
Faster! Faster!
Her heart was pounding in her chest, almost leaping out of her throat. Suddenly, a glance caught her eye, and her gaze fell on a huge boar beast beside her. A thought flashed through her mind, and without thinking, she grabbed the unconscious Huo Shaoying and darted forward, hooking her arm around the boar's tusks as she sat on its back.
The boar roared in fright, struggling to shake the two off its back. Nan Xian raised an eyebrow, a golden light flashing in her eyes. With a thought, a golden rein suddenly appeared in her hand. With a gentle wave in the air, she firmly tied it to the boar's fangs.
She gripped the reins with one hand and gave it a sharp jerk. With a crisp "snap," a bright red welt appeared on the boar's body. It howled in pain, then quickly stopped struggling and obediently ran forward, soon overtaking the other boars by a large margin.
Seeing this, the other guards followed suit and each chose the boar beast closest to them.
However, they were not as "lucky" as Nan Xian. Some of them lost their grip and were thrown off by the boar beast.
Nan Xian reacted swiftly, using the reins to deftly lift them from the ground, preventing them from being trampled into a bloody pulp by the boars behind them.
Immediately afterwards, Nan Xian raised her head high and let out a strange sound from her throat, like the cry of some kind of bird. Upon hearing this sound, the restless boars instantly became extremely docile, even obediently allowing them to ride on their backs.
The guards looked at each other, a look of surprise and doubt flashing in their eyes.
"boom!"
With a deafening roar, the volcano finally erupted, billowing thick smoke like a tsunami, swirling and sweeping in all directions, instantly plunging the entire world into darkness.
The powerful impact caused the boars lagging behind the group to fall to the ground. They struggled to get up, but the ground beneath their feet cracked open like a biscuit being broken in half. They rolled into the cracks, fell into the lava, and disappeared in an instant.
In the final moment before the earthquake struck, Nan Xian gritted her teeth and let out a low growl.
An extremely fierce aura rose from her body, and an invisible tornado swept around her, instantly drawing all the spiritual energy surging from all directions into her body.
Then, this spiritual energy transformed into countless invisible whips, lashing fiercely at the boars. They howled in pain, but their pace immediately quickened.
The moment it surged to the top of the mountain, lava, accompanied by waves of heat, erupted from the ground, and within a few breaths, the entire valley was engulfed...
The golden light in Nan Xian's eyes faded, and she slowly loosened the reins. The boars obeyed her command and stopped.
She turned to look at the valley, which was now in ruins.
Beside her, the terrified guards tumbled off the boars, their legs trembling and limbs weak, collapsing to the ground, panting heavily in disbelief.
They were so close, so very close, to their deaths here...
