Chapter 508
The Armored sandworms weren’t a strong species of magical beasts .
They surely were one of the strongest kinds of worm-type creatures but their enemies were heroic cultivators, there was nothing they could do against them .
Noah casually swung his sabers as he flew between the pouncing sandworms, sharp black lines appeared in the air whenever he perford a slash, his attacks seed able to cut through anything that stood on their trajectory .
Elder Hope swung a small knife that had holes on its surface, a threatening aura was radiated by that weapon, Noah imdiately noticed that it was a rank 4 inscribed item .
The knife released strange sharp sounds as it moved through the air, small wind blades took form every ti one of those sounds echoed and reached for the weakest parts of the sandworms .
Elder Duke controlled an azure sphere that floated in front of his chest and that fueled most of his attacks, water bullets and torrents shot from his spell toward the creatures next to him .
Elder Laurel nimbly avoided the beasts and circled them until enough of them had gathered in one spot before creating a huge fireball above her figure and launching it toward the sandworms, a huge explosion occurred every ti she cast her spell .
Elder Morgan wielded an inscribed spear that tainted the creatures with the lines of a formation every ti she stabbed their skin, that weapon also was an inscribed item in the fourth rank and the shining lines that infected the sandworms spread on their bodies as if fueled by their vitality .
’Her martial art is so interesting . ’
Noah couldn’t help but feel interested in Elder Morgan attacks, inflicting one wound seed the only requirent to infect the beasts with those spreading inscriptions which continuously weakened their bodies, it was as if the inscribed spear carried a poison of so sort .
The pack of Armored sandworms had no chance against the power of five heroic cultivators, most of those beasts were only in the lower tier of the fourth rank and could barely survive a few attacks before falling lifelessly on the yellow sand .
"Seize the corpses quickly, the rulers of this area will co soon . "
Noah warned his companions as he stored the corpses next to him inside his space-ring, the spirit automaton autonomously put them inside the formation with the other dragon’s corpses .
He knew that, in such an amazing environnt, finding only twenty or so rank 4 magical beasts was impossible, there had to be more creatures in the surrounding areas .
Also, the sandworms had to be at the bottom of the food chain there since their power mostly was in the lower tier, aning that the rulers of the desert wouldn’t be happy to discover that soone was stealing their food .
Part of that knowledge ca from his studies but Noah was aware that the fusion had enlarged his point of view, he could now think like a magical beast and even communicate with them in a sort of primal way, he simply understood them far better now .
That was the reason why he was sure that more powerful creatures would arrive in their position .
The confirmation to his hypothesis ca almost imdiately, dunes ford in the sand below them as if sothing was crawling under the surface and searching for sothing .
The heads of huge sandworms ca out in the open but stood still, they didn’t pounce the cultivators from the Hive, they limited themselves to spread their circular mouths where a series of sharp fangs could be seen coming out of their internal skin .
Then, they released a sharp cry that echoed through the vast desert .
"We must go . "
Noah spoke as he flew high in the air, he didn’t even pick the corpses that were at so distance from his position as he retreated in the sky .
The elders in his group were a bit surprised by his actions but they decided to follow him anyway, the Demon Prince of the Hive had yet to be wrong about sothing that concerned magical beasts .
Noah didn’t stop flying even after he had reached a height of a few hundred ters, his feet continuously kicked the air as he went higher .
He stopped only when he was at more than a kiloter from the ground, his companions quickly reached him and began to stare at the ground with curious gazes .
"I think we could have picked the remaining corpses, the new sandworms are only in the middle tier after all . "
Elder Morgan complained a bit but her expression suddenly froze when she saw that an imnse dune was growing at the center of the desert .
The dune continued to rise in the air, slowly reaching a height of two hundred ters until the sand began to fall back on the ground and the mighty being under it was revealed .
It was another worm-type magical beast, it was yellow and a series of small pores could be seen on its skin .
The beast was imnse, it was more than three hundred ters long and almost fifty ters large, its size was simply incredible .
"Rank 5 Giant sandworm, it’s hiding skills are amazing, I wouldn’t have sensed it if it wasn’t for the weaker beasts . This specin seems to be in the upper tier but I can’t be too sure about it . "
Noah explained to his companions as he stared at the huge sandworm .
The cries that the rank 4 Giant sandworms had released after the Armored ones had been killed were so sort of call for their leader, Noah had understood the aning behind the cries thanks to his beast’s part and had imdiately decided to escape because of that .
"I guess this isn’t a good area where to set the teleportation matrix . "
Noah spoke in a casual tone as he turned toward the elders next to him, their eyes had widened after the rank 5 beast appeared and Elder Morgan repeatedly nodded after she heard his words .
She couldn’t help but imagine what would have happened if she had stayed for only a bit longer on the ground, the images that her mind played sent shivers down her spine .
"We will rely on your expertise to find the right location, Prince . "
Elder Hope spoke while performing a slight bow, the recent events had increased the amount of respect that she felt for Noah so much that she didn’t mind bowing to him even though she was the leader of the group .
