Chapter 742 The Altar (Forty-Six)



Rumble!

Deep underground, scorching magma began to surge upwards, flowing along the cracks, and the surface temperature gradually rose.

Deep within the Crimson Desert of the East, a pair of blood-red eyes opened, and several streams of scorching steam billowed out, rising into the air and evaporating. Then, a three-toed claw shattered the earth's crust and stomped onto the ground. The lava flowing down from it instantly melted the desert's fine sand, turning it into charred powder.

"Tragic!"

A deep, resentful voice came from beneath the ground, and within a radius of a hundred miles, everything was overturned and shattered by invisible waves...

"What's going on?"

Those who followed Bai Siyuan and his group flying forward looked back eastward and saw only a gigantic figure leaping between heaven and earth. With each landing, the ground trembled.

"Legend has it that there are gods deep in the desert, could it be..."

"No matter how you look at it, this doesn't seem like a god..."

"Run!"

Everyone channeled their spiritual energy and flew rapidly toward Sui Xushan.

Under the forbidden ground, Xiang Wan absorbed the unknown substance with all her might, and her entire body, from head to toe, including her eyes, turned white, as did the red ball in her arms.

"It's too late!"

Bai Xuan felt the ground tremor, and so did the monsters that were rushing into the giant beast's mouth. They all stopped what they were doing and looked eastward.

Those with greater strength simply abandoned their attack, turned around, and crawled on the ground, trembling with fear.

This is the situation that Bai Siyuan and his group saw when they arrived.

They paused for a moment, seeing the attack of immortal power coming from below. Instead of rushing forward, they found a place to hide and observe the situation.

"How could Grandmaster be in there?" Bai Siyuan sensed that Bai Xuan was safe and sound, so he stopped moving forward, afraid that his presence would hinder Bai Xuan.

The monster stopped moving, and the one-eyed behemoth at the bottom of the pit trembled slightly. The frequency of the contractions of its flesh walls increased again, and it looked like it was about to squeeze the stone platform.

Xiang Wan stopped and stood up.

At this moment, Xiang Wan had no trace of flesh and blood left on her body; all she could sense with her divine sense was a wisp of mist.

The red ball emerged from her waist and stood on the ground.

It was no longer a red ball, but a pure white little beast surrounded by illusory white mist, with long legs, a slender waist, a fluffy tail, a round head, and its big mouth was still there, but now it had a nose, eyes, and two long, thin ears.

"Bai Xuan, take them to the altar."

A melodious yet irresistible voice rang out from all directions. Bai Xuan's pupils contracted, and his eyes darted back and forth between Xiang Wan and Hong Qiu, finally settling on Hong Qiu.

Are you talking to me?

The red ball nodded, opened its mouth and exhaled a wisp of white smoke, which quickly transformed into a jade slip, hovering within Bai Xuan's reach. "The only safe place is right there."

He reached out and took it, probing with his divine sense. The entire world appeared in his mind. Bai Xuan had never seen the original appearance of the world he was in so clearly: in the middle was what he knew well, mountains, rivers, swamps, deserts, ice, and even his current location was clear at a glance, as well as those places that even immortals dared not easily set foot in. Further away, it was all shrouded in mist.

Among these mountains and landforms, there is a place where white light flashes, which is the altar the other party mentioned.

How could he not know that there was a shrine here?

The temperature around us was gradually rising, and the shaking under our feet became more and more obvious.

"I'll distract them, and then you can take care of them."

After saying that, Red Ball disappeared from the spot.

Bai Xuan had been watching the red ball intently, unaware of how it had disappeared; the shock he felt was indescribable.

Looking at Wan again, her eyes were fixed on her feet, seemingly oblivious to everything happening around her.

"roar!"

A loud roar came from above, and the flesh wall suddenly trembled, turning into streams of black, turbid liquid at a visible speed, flowing into the space beneath their feet.

The chains connecting the four parts began to loosen, one by one breaking off from the flesh wall, causing the foundation to sway and become unstable.

A foul, burnt smell, mixed with a fishy stench, wafted from above. The monsters began to roar violently, but they had no chance to resist.

"Tragic!"

Sound waves soar into the sky and penetrate the earth, causing destruction everywhere.

Countless pieces of debris and dirt fell from above. Bai Xuan grabbed Xiang Wan's wrist, trying to pull her away. But suddenly, she vanished from the spot, reappearing in her arms carrying a male corpse.

Although Bai Xuan was puzzled, he remembered that the red ball was talking about them, so he no longer hesitated and carried the two of them upwards.

Only after surging out of the pit did he realize what he was facing.

A four-legged monster, its body cracked and flowing with lava, lay prone on the ground, its mouth agape, swallowing the surrounding monsters whole, turning them into blood almost instantly upon entering its mouth. White smoke billowed from the monster's head, and its two large, blood-red eyes were incredibly agile, constantly darting around. Its gigantic maw was ten zhang wide, taking up more than half of its head. There was no neck between its body and head; its two three-toed feet supported its entire forebody. Its torso was extremely long, the hindquarters hidden within the mountain's belly, and its massive tail swept around, occasionally slamming into the ground, seemingly guiding the flow of lava.

The ground was charred black, with flames flashing everywhere, and the air was scorching hot and still rising.

The moment Bai Xuan and the others flew up, the giant beast's eyes were fixed on them, its pupils vertical, making Bai Xuan's scalp tingle. It quickly led Xiang Wan and the others to fly in another direction.

puff!

A viscous liquid containing endless malevolent energy, wrapped in magma, appeared behind Bai Xuan in an instant, before he could even react.

"Grandmaster?!"
