Chapter 496: Return
Liu Ming made a gesture and the sand mist condensed into a giant sand ball. Spikes appeared inside the sand ball as it spun wildly.
After the several fire birds screamed inside, they were twisted into pieces by these spikes.
Then the golden sand ball exploded with another muffled sound, and it once again turned into sand mist that surged toward the two fire spirits in the sky.
When the two fire spirits in the air saw this, after a scream in their mouths, their bodies shook and merged into a huge fireball. It turned and blasted away. After only a few flashes, they escaped a hundred meters more away,
After hearing the scream of fire spirits, the remaining few fire wolves below also cast a fire cloud and immediately retreated.
Seeing this, Liu Ming squinted. He waved and retrieved the flying sword and Golden Fallen Sand, and he didn’t pursue them.
Chen Deng and others were overjoyed when they saw Liu Ming suddenly appear and used such amazing technique.
"Thank you Brother Liu for helping me. I, Zang Xuan, will remember this favor, and I will definitely pay you back in the future." Zang Xuan let out a long sigh, and he thanked Liu Ming.
The other two outer disciples cupped their fists to express their gratitude to Liu Ming.
Chen Deng made a gesture to retrieve the array. The blue light curtain flashed away. He also looked grateful, and he wanted to say something to Liu Ming.
However, at this moment, there was a deafening rumbling sound from the valley behind them. There were sparks all over the sky faraway. A huge red mushroom cloud appeared. It was clearly the massive fire spirit beasts that pursued Liu Ming!
"We should move now. Let’s talk on the way." Liu Ming said with a solemn face when he saw this, then he made a gesture and he flew toward the exit of the valley.
Chen Deng and others were naturally shocked after seeing such anomaly in the sky faraway. They also flew into the air.
In the escape lights, they were all holding spirit stones in their hands to replenish their spiritual power.
"Brother Chen, if we continue to entangle with so many fire spirit beasts and fire spirits, the consumption of our spiritual power can’t keep up with the replenishing rate. I don’t know how soon the courtyard masters out there can think of a way to save us. Do you have any plans for it?" Liu Ming suddenly faintly said to Chen Deng.
This Chen Deng had not only reached the Condensation State later stage, he was also proficient in arrays, and his spiritual weapon was not weak. He was obviously a man with a lot of history.
"Does Brother Liu notice anything unusual all the way here?" Chen Deng did not directly answer Liu Ming’s question, but he asked instead.
"Could it be… Brother Chen is referring to the huge fire spirit?" Liu Ming’s heart shuddered, but his expression remained calm.
"Yes. In that first battle, we went all the way to a huge mine deep in the canyon and witnessed a group of fire spirits sitting around a huge crystal pillar. A twenty meters fire spirit was sitting cross-legged above the crystal pillar. As I scanned it in a rush, I found out that it was infinitely close to the Crystallization Period. It should be the fire spirit king. That pillar should be the treasure that causes the anomaly in the natural aura of this place." Chen Deng pondered for a moment, and immediately said to Liu Ming.
"Brother Chen meant…" Liu Ming heard this. He said with a change of expression.
"Rather than fleeing aimlessly like this, we might as well take the risk to fight back. Now that most of the fire spirits are outside, we can invade the canyon and destroy the giant crystal pillar. If the pillar is destroyed, the giant fire spirit should be able to sense it and return immediately. When we work together and eliminate it, the other beast horde and fire spirits will inevitably be in chaos." Chen Deng smiled and expressed his thoughts to Liu Ming.
