Chapter 1192: Chapter 448: Peerless Juggernaut! The Mysterious Woman from a Millennium Ago! (Part 2)

"Something’s wrong, my body seems to be having issues too!"

"Me, me too!"

A few disciples checked themselves over and were horrified to find their bodies gradually turning into yellow sand!

For some, it was only at the arm, while others had it spreading to their chests!

Ling Ningzhi and Yu Hongyin were also affected.

But perhaps because their cultivation was relatively strong, the sandification process was slower. Yu Hongyin’s right hand showed some anomalies, while Ling Ningzhi’s fingertips were tinged with yellow.

"Could it be that from the moment we entered this desert, we have been gradually assimilated?"

"But I didn’t feel anything before..."

Ling Ningzhi rubbed her fingers together, feeling the rough texture as sand dust fell to the ground.

Even channeling Primordial Qi was of no help. She could only watch as her body was eroded bit by bit, and her mood grew increasingly heavy.

Unable to resist, unable to escape, and didn’t even know who the enemy was... No matter how steadfast her will, a deep sense of helplessness welled up within her.

At this moment, Yu Hongyin raised her hand to point forward, exclaiming, "Daoist, look over there, what is that?"

Ling Ningzhi followed the direction of her finger and saw at the horizon endless yellow sand swirling, a towering dragon tornado rapidly forming.

An intuition told her that this might be the opportunity to leave this place!

Without any hesitation, she said to everyone, "You wait here, I’ll go and see."

"I’ll go with you. At least we can look out for each other," Yu Hongyin said.

"Alright."

Ling Ningzhi nodded without refusing.

The two of them flew towards the sandstorm.

As they got closer, the wind howled in their ears, strong winds carrying sand and gravel striking them painfully.

Ling Ningzhi raised her hand and tossed a Jade Talisman, which hovered above, its streams of light shielding them, blocking out the wind and sand. The pressure lessened considerably.

Once inside the sandstorm, they were instantly enveloped in chaos.

Heaven and earth were cast in a single dull yellow hue, all they could see was the raging sand, visibility dropped to less than a meter.

It seemed as if countless ferocious beasts roared simultaneously, the deafening howls filling their ears, the intense pressure making their hearts tighten.

Here, the wind took form, countless grains of sand gathered into towering sand pillars, spinning rapidly, the immense pull making it hard for them to stay upright, as if about to be torn apart!

At the same time, Yu Hongyin found her sandification accelerating, spreading across her entire arm in just moments.

This further suggested that the problem was at the center of this sandstorm!

"Let’s go!"

The two exchanged a glance, made a decisive decision, and shot towards the depths of the tornado!

Crack—

Under the immense wind pressure, the protective shield emitted a crisp sound as countless cracks spread out.

Just as it was about to shatter, they suddenly burst into the eye of the storm!

In an instant, all was silent.

This eye of the storm was exceptionally calm.

The thunderous noise abruptly ceased, transitioning from extreme fury to extreme stillness, they could nearly hear their own breathing amidst sand walls soaring skyward, as if isolated from the world.

Before them lay a flat sand ground, with a massive black stone platform at its center, upon which a figure lay quietly.

"Let’s go take a look."

The two moved towards it.

With each step closer, their Primordial Qi rapidly drained, their bodies turning into flowing sand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But there was no turning back now. Ling Ningzhi gritted her teeth, channeling Dao Power, suddenly flashing to the side of the stone platform, finally seeing the figure clearly—

It was a woman.

A mane of fiery red hair, a cyan robe covering her fair skin, her curves graceful like a maiden... provided one overlooked her imposing size of nearly ten zhang.

At the woman’s brow, a yellow pearl hovered, about fist-sized, with a glassy texture and swirling sand within.

"Who is this?"

"Could she be the reason for our bodily abnormalities?"

By now, Ling Ningzhi’s body below her waist had turned to sand, making movement extremely arduous. Gathering her remaining strength, she reached for the yellow pearl.

Yet before her fingertips could touch it, her movement froze, expression stiffening, eyes filled with horror.

The previously motionless giant woman suddenly opened her eyes, a pair of scarlet pupils gazing at her indifferently.

"Alive?!"

"This is bad!!"

Ling Ningzhi’s hair stood on end, a strong sense of crisis surged in her heart.

The next moment, the female giant raised her massive hand and reached straight for her!

Ling Ningzhi wanted to dodge, but her lower body had already lost sensation and was completely immobile. She could only watch helplessly as the giant palm descended!

"Watch out!"

Yu Hongyin staggered over, trying to pull Ling Ningzhi away.

The female giant’s eyes flickered, and the two of them were suddenly frozen in place, their bodies melting like snow, merging with the quicksand beneath them.

"Daoist Qingxuan, what do we do now?"

"If you ask me, who should I ask?"

A massive shadow loomed over them, and despair filled their eyes.

Looks like today we’re really going to end it here...

So unwilling...

Boom—

Just then, the surrounding wall of yellow sand suddenly shook violently.

The female giant seemed to notice something and looked up.

Only to see a shooting star with a long fiery tail crash down in front of her.

When the dust cleared, a tall figure stood revealed, his handsome face leaving Ling Ningzhi and Yu Hongyin stunned.

"Mr. Chen?!"

"Why are you here?"

"I sensed some disturbance here using my Magical Treasure, so I rushed over... What exactly is this thing?"

Chen Mo’s eyes were wary as he observed the female giant before him.

Her slender legs resembled jade pillars, and she wore only a thin gauze garment, looking up, it even seemed like he could swim inside her; this time it was really a colossal car...

Swoosh—

Three figures appeared out of thin air.

Seeing the giant, they couldn’t help but jump in shock.

"What is that...?"

Sikong Zuiyue frowned deeply, as if recalling something.

Facing these unwelcome guests, the female giant’s face showed no emotions. She opened her mouth to swallow a bead, and blood-red patterns resembling ancient runes surfaced on her body, emitting an intensely scorching aura.

Ssshhh—

The quicksand beneath surged and took the shape of fierce beasts.

They resembled Li horses, with hooves like deer, two identical heads on their neck, sharp ears, and teeth like hungry wolves, four pale yellow eyes staring intently at everyone.

"Li Kicking?"

Sikong Zuiyue was momentarily dazed.

Connecting this with their surroundings, he suddenly looked up at the female giant, incredulous, "Scarlet land for miles, looming and burning! Demon! She’s the Female Demon!"

"Female Demon?" An Mengni was also a bit confused, "Wasn’t this thing dead a thousand years ago? How can it still be alive?"

The Female Demon remained expressionless as fierce beasts continued to appear around her.

One, two, three...

In a matter of moments, nearly a hundred fierce beasts had formed.

They varied in appearance, all exceedingly ferocious, looking almost indistinguishable from living creatures!

"Roar—"

The Female Demon slowly raised her hand, and all the fierce beasts roared, charging at them, creating a terrifying scene!

Sikong Zuiyue snapped back and transformed the black mist into countless sharp blades, pouring down like a torrential rain, piercing through their heads.

But these beasts were formed of yellow sand, having no vital points. Even if crushed to powder, they could instantly recover, and under the demon’s influence, everyone’s strength was rapidly draining, and the lower-cultivated An Mengni already showed signs of sand transformation.

Sikong Zuiyue activated Magic, making black water appear from nowhere, turning the desert before them into a swamp. The beasts sank into it, and the more they struggled, the deeper they sank.

But this could only stall for a moment.

In this desert, the Female Demon’s power seemed inexhaustible, surrounding yellow sand continuously filled in, and the swamp was slowly shrinking.

And Chen Mo, at this moment, had no time for anything else, holding Ling Ningzhi and Yu Hongyin’s wrists, continuously injecting Vitality Essence into them, but only temporarily suppressing the sand transformation, unable to restore them completely.

"Lord, while your body is still unaffected, you should leave quickly..."

Ling Ningzhi said in a low voice.

The yellow sand had already climbed to her neck, her perfect face as white as paper.

"What are you talking about, there’s no way I would leave you behind."

"It seems there’s only one way to resolve this..."

Chen Mo turned his head to look at the colossal figure, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes, "We must take her down!"
