Yellow sand filled the sky.
The wind swept gravel across the land like blades, stinging as it struck the body.
A murky yellow haze shrouded heaven and earth, with only ruined stone pillars flickering in and out of sight through the sandstorm.
This was a newly discovered region in the eastern reaches of the Earthshaking Continent: the Wild Sand Ancient Road.
At that moment, a coordinated hunt was unfolding on the sand.
Thirty-two figures stood scattered in a fan formation, encircling a massive swarm of snakes.
At the very front of the fan, Broken Star stood bare-chested, facing the tide of monsters.
As he clenched his fists, Crimson Gang Qi surged around him like blazing flames, blowing away every grain of sand that came at him.
Twenty consecutive days of leveling had greatly improved his physical attributes, and that showed in his appearance.
His muscles had become more sharply defined, each looking as though it had been carved with blades and axes, containing terrifying strength that could erupt at any moment.
Directly ahead was a cluster of over a hundred monsters.
These monsters resembled snakes, with four-meter-long bodies, three heads, and dark yellow scales covering them from end to end. Their tails were buried in the sand, ready to spring up and deliver a lethal strike at any moment.
Hiss!
The leading three-headed snake attacked first.
All three heads thrust forward simultaneously, spraying three streams of venom like arrows.
Broken Star did not dodge.
Gang Qi swelled around him, enveloping him completely in crimson currents.
The venom struck the crimson currents with a corrosive sizzling sound. White smoke rose, but not a drop could penetrate.
Pushing off the ground, he leaped up, activated Sluggishness Domain in midair, and slammed into the monsters.
A dark gray ripple immediately spread outward from
