The yellow radiance clinging to the black wall of energy swept over the sand below. In an instant, dust filled the blasted area, as though a pair of enormous hands had churned heaven and earth.
When the dust swiftly cleared, a bottomless pit had appeared in the ground.
The moment the pit appeared, the fine sand around it rushed toward the funnel-like black hole from every direction, like sharks scenting blood.
Dunes for miles around began to flow like water, giving off deep, rumbling booms. The earth trembled incessantly beneath the tremendous commotion.
Hovering in midair, Li Yan watched the brilliant blue radiance enveloping Zhao Min and prepared to help her suppress the gu insect king.
Although he knew nothing about using gu arts, suppressing the insect's resistance would certainly help her.
First, he released his Divine Sense and swept their surroundings. Within a thousand miles, he found three cultivators and several Demon Beasts of varying ranks.
The three cultivators and two third-rank Demon Beasts had also sensed that powerful disturbance, and their Divine Sense came probing toward them.
"Get lost!"
Li Yan's voice rolled like thunder as he unleashed his late Golden Core Realm aura without restraint.
Two of the three cultivators were traveling together, while the other was roaming alone.
Upon hearing Li Yan's rebuke, one of the pair immediately transmitted his voice back.
"You certainly throw your weight around!"
Yet their Divine Sense had also revealed the situation here. Seeing three Golden Core Realm experts battling a swarm of crossbow insects, they were already thinking of retreating.
They wanted no part of anything involving crossbow insects, especially since this was not a struggle over treasure.
Following a cold snort from that man, the two Golden Core Realm cultivators withdrew their Divine Sense and vanished over the horizon.
