Chapter 521: Sand Demons
"You guys be careful, I'll take a look around!" As Cao Shang said that, he looked around. But in the next moment, a big hole was formed a thousand meters away by them.
"Boom!"
The sound was loud as the sand started billowing, but there was nothing there.
Cao Shang paused for a moment, then quickly turned his head in another direction to look.
"Boom!"
Another large hole appeared, but the next moment, a strange voice rang out.
"Kill!"
"Puff!" "Puff!" "Puff!"
Figures scuttled out of the sand one by one as they suddenly attacked Ye Xiao's group of demons.
"Sand Demons, be careful!"
Cao Shang reminded everyone to be careful. They have encountered the smallest danger they could in the Black Desert. But this smallest danger was still not something that all of them could deal with. They had to prepare some other solution to escape from these Sand Demons.
Sand Demons were also a group of demons but they choose to live in deserts, causing them to be known as Sand Demons. These sand demons were all very skilled in the art of sand escape and stay very well hidden inside the underground.
Their methods were so powerful that even an Early Dao Body Stage Demon might not detect anything and only feel that something was amiss.
There were more than twenty Sand Demons that had come out this time. Ten of them were at the Late Stage Demon Emperor Realm and the other ten of them were at the Ancient Demon Realm.
"Tsk Tsk, you're really courting death!"
From Ye Xiao's group, one of the demons who was also at the Early Stage of Ancient Demon Realm laughed sinisterly upon seeing the Sand Demons coming out and said with an evil grin on his face.
"Diyu Jiang and I and other Ancient Demons will take care of the Ancient Demon Realm Sand Demons. Xuan Fei, Ye Xiao, Miss Meng, and other Demon Emperors will face Demon Emperor Realm Sand Demons." Cao Shang immediately assigned the task of how to fight the demons to everyone.
"Understood!"
Ye Xiao and Yi Meng looked at each other and nodded along with everyone. Then they immediately rushed out.
"All of you, die!"
Ye Xiao immediately attacked. His speed was extremely fast and he did not show any mercy.
The other ten demons also rushed out but compared to Ye Xiao, they were still very slow.
In a very short period of time, Ye Xiao and Yi Meng had already finished off all the Demon Emperor Realm Sand Demons.
When Ye Xiao and Yi Meng finished off the ten Sand Demons, Cao Shang and other demons had also killed the three Late Stage Ancient Demon Realm Sand Demons. Now, all those who were left were either at the Early Stage or Middle Stage of the Ancient Demon Realm.
"The opponents are very strong, hurry up and leave!"
One of the Sand Demon shouted loudly upon seeing their partners being killed so easily and quickly escaped into the ground. Seeing him, the other alive sand demons also started escaping through the sand.
The Demon called Xuan Fei was about to use his Sand Law to chase after the escaping demons but he was stopped by Cao Shang. Cao Shang said, "Xuan Fei, don't chase them. Let them leave!"
Hearing that, Xuan Fei stopped and looked at Cao Shang in surprise.
"The underground of the Black Desert is even more dangerous. These are the veteran Sand Demons that can come and go through the underground of the Black Desert as they wish. If you go down recklessly, I'm afraid you will die miserably." Cao Shang explained the situation.
Only now did Xuan Fei come back to his sense and hurriedly thanked Cao Shang. The current him was only a step away from advancing to the Ancient Demon Realm.
"No wonder Senior Cao felt that something was amiss, so it's these sand demons. Luckily the sand demons who came this time for us were not that powerful, otherwise, we would have been in big trouble."
The ten demons of this group were all somewhat shocked. At the same time, they felt how dangerous it was inside the Black Desert. It was no wonder that all the demons formed a big group before trying to cross the Black Desert. A mere sand demon actually had a Late Stage Ancient Demon Realm demon, this made them feel extremely pressured.
After all, what came after them was not even the main force of the group of Sand Demons.
"We have killed more than ten sand demons and three of them were even at the Late Stage of Ancient Demon Realm. The leader of the sand demons will definitely come for revenge. You guys, be careful. We might encounter another attack from the Sand Demons" Cao Shang told Ye Xiao and the rest of this possibility.
Everyone took a deep breath before nodding their heads.
"Let's go. All of you have to be extremely careful. Don't separate from each other." Cao Shang again reminded them and continued onward.
Although Ye Xiao was also only at the Early Stage of Immortal Emperor Realm, his speed was still faster than the other demons in the group. What surprised him was Yi Meng, who was only at the Late Stage of the Immortal King Realm was no less fast than him.
They continued onward for another half an hour. After that, Cao Shang once again felt that something was wrong.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
Unharmed, they formed a transparent Black Barrier, protecting everyone inside.
"Sand Demons, come out."
Having learned from the previous fight, this time, Cao Shang was certain that another group of Sand Demons had arrived and were preparing to ambush them. Indeed, as expected, as soon as he finished speaking, several figures leaped out of the sand.
This time, more than thirty people came, including six Late Stage Ancient Demon Realm demons.
"Where did you come from? How dare you kill my men?" The leader of the Sand Demons coldly shouted at Ye Xiao's group.
"What? Could it be that only you guys are allowed to attack? Are you dreaming on such a bright day?" Cao Shang replied indifferently but in a mocking tone.
The leader of the Sand Demons narrowed his eyes and then he only said a simple word: "Attack!"
As soon as he gave the order, the other Sand Demons behind him started attacking.
Although Ye Xiao's group did not have an advantage in numbers compared to the Sand Demon, the demons in his group all had extremely powerful strength. Almost all of them could fight above their cultivation level.
At that moment, Cao Shang stopped the leader of the sand demons by himself. As for other demons, he left them for the other twelve demons and demonic cultivators in his group to deal with.
Ye Xiao once again started killing the Ancient Demon Realm Demons. With just one attack, he could kill one Sand Demon. This continued until he killed seven demons by himself. It was at this time when one of the Sand Demons noticed him.
"That brat is very strong, I'll go and kill him!"
One of the Early Stage Ancient Demon Realm looked at Ye Xiao and muttered before rushing toward him.
"Humph, you want to kill me with such a small trick?"
Ye Xiao coldly snorted in his heart. With a single punch, he killed the Early Stage Ancient Demon Realm Sand Demon coming at him. In this attack, he actually used the World Exterminating Fist.
This fist can even exterminate an entire world, let alone a small demon. Of course, to show such prowess, he had to become extremely strong first.
Ye Xiao now already knew that there was another Divine Realm where he had yet to ascend to. Who knows how powerful the cultivators at the Divine Realm would be?
After killing him, Ye Xiao himself dashed towards other Early and Mid Stage Ancient Demon Realm sand demons and attacked them. He continued to kill them with just two or three attacks.
"So powerful!"
Everyone present was shocked when they saw Ye Xiao's fighting prowess. Of course, Yi Meng was not included.
According to Yi Meng, Ye Xiao was a dragon and it was very normal for dragons to fight three or four minor stages above their levels.
On the other hand, those Sand Demons believed that Ye Xiao was the hidden Ancient Demon Realm demonic cultivator.
All of them were still shocked. However, at this moment.
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, an ominous premonition surfaced in everyone's hearts. They turned their heads to look and discovered that there was a huge wave of black wind in the distance.
When the Sand Demons clearly saw the source of this huge storm, their faces were filled with fear.
"Not good, that's the Black Sandstorm. Hurry up and run!!"
The Sand Demons' Leader shouted and quickly retreated, drilling into the sand. Following him were other alive Sand Demons. All of them quickly escaped by drilling in the sand below their feet.
