Chapter 1824: Desert Wild Wolf

"Haha, it looks like boss is going to demonstrate his wilderness survival skills again. But based on my judgment, this wave should attract quite a few powerful desert creatures."

As expected, an intensely rich aroma of meat drifted through the swirling sandstorm, drawing out more and more beast tribes hidden within the desert.

What surprised Xu Yang most was a large pack of desert wolves rapidly approaching their location.

In the desert under the cover of night, the howling of wolves beneath the moon was always the most menacing sound in the vast expanse of sand.

Soon, as the wolf howls echoed repeatedly, more and more wolves galloped rapidly towards the direction from which Xu Yang's meat aroma emanated.

They quickly surrounded the area.

Xu Yang and his companions scanned the surroundings and saw hundreds of desert wolves appearing in the area. Xu Yang smiled contentedly.

"This was easier than I thought. Desert wolves aren't high-level, making them perfect for these mortal bodies to absorb nutrients. It seems you're all in for a feast today."

After Xu Yang finished speaking, he entrusted the task to Long Kun, who was eager to deal with these wolf-level beasts and didn't even wait for Xu Yang's direct command.

Before long, the three of them transformed into three streaks of light, rapidly breaking away from their original positions and charging towards the hundreds of desert wolves.

Long Kun and Qing Ya, who had followed Xu Yang all along, had significantly improved their combat abilities. As for Po Xiao, the female God of Slaughter from Tianzong, she was already a powerful martial arts grandmaster at the mid-Dao Convergence stage, so killing these wolves was as simple as crushing ants for her.

The three of them attacked simultaneously and quickly slaughtered all the desert wolves that Xu Yang had attracted. Afterward, Xu Yang personally processed the lifeless wolf carcasses, tossing them all into a huge iron pot.

Then, he started a fire and retrieved some water from his storage space.

He brewed a large pot of desert wolf soup, and every female captive, along with the infants in their arms, received ample energy replenishment from this hearty dinner.

Seeing the previously exhausted female captives quickly regain their strength, Long Kun and the other two couldn't help but give Xu Yang a thumbs-up.

"Boss, you're truly brilliant! These people lack a complete cultivation foundation, so they can't directly absorb the origin of life force. But this method actually helps them absorb energy better. You're a true genius!"

Qing Ya even made a heart gesture towards their boss, Xu Yang, causing Xu Yang to shiver involuntarily.

"Alright, alright, save your flattery. Although we've temporarily overcome the survival crisis, we'll be heading deeper into this endless desert next.

You all know very well that the opponents we'll face next are the truly terrifying threats. Pay full attention!"

Three days later, Xu Yang finally led his team to the central region of the endless desert, though the situation was different from what they had imagined.

Along the way, they encountered almost no powerful desert behemoths. Instead, there were constant minor disturbances, with numerous low-level desert beasts posing no substantial threat to Xu Yang's team, which puzzled Xu Yang.

According to his previous judgment, a true forbidden zone like this endless desert should have a powerful beast king at regular intervals, similar to the King of Crabs that guarded the desert's outer perimeter earlier.

However, since defeating the King of Crabs, Xu Yang's team had not encountered any top-tier beast kings in this area.

Just as Xu Yang and his companions were puzzled by this situation, a fierce gust of wind suddenly arose in the previously calm desert forbidden zone before them.

Under the sweep of powerful wind-elemental energy, the vast expanse of sand surged like a true ocean of sand, bearing down on Xu Yang's team. Xu Yang instinctively frowned, clearly sensing a truly threatening power hidden behind the endless gale.

Facing this sudden sandstorm suppression, Xu Yang decisively unleashed his powerful Earth Law, raising a towering stone mountain in the very center of the endless desert. This effortlessly lifted Xu Yang's entire team to the peak of the area covered by the boundless sandstorm.

It was as if a sky-high peak had risen within the desert, and everyone was drawn to its summit, preventing them from being buried by the surrounding swirling sands.

At the same time, Xu Yang and the others gained a much wider view as the Earth Law reshaped the terrain.

"Boss, look! At the very edge of our vision in that direction, there seems to be a hidden ruin in the desert. Could the source of the powerful sandstorm we just experienced be hidden deep within that ruin?"

This thought traveled from Long Kun's mind to Xu Yang's spiritual world in the form of mental energy, and Xu Yang gave an affirmative response.

"Your judgment is not unfounded. Since the Endless Desert is a true forbidden zone, it's not surprising for some secrets to be hidden here. I'll go ahead and see what's really going on there."

As soon as Xu Yang finished speaking, he took only Po Xiao and swiftly ascended, flying towards the farthest edge of their view, where the ruin lay.

However, just as the two arrived at the location, before their feet even touched the ground, an extremely potent devouring power suddenly erupted from the very bottom of the desert ruin. Following this, an incredibly fierce mental pressure was abruptly released from the depths beneath the ruin.

"Daring to trespass into the Endless Desert? You truly don't know the meaning of death."

The voice sounded incredibly deep and resonant, but in Xu Yang's eyes, it was merely someone trying to act mysterious.

"You don't even dare to show your face, yet you presume to flaunt your power before us?"

Xu Yang snorted coldly, immediately unleashing his powerful primordial energy technique. Nine energy vortexes instantly activated within his body, and simultaneously, a tenth external energy vortex was positioned by Xu Yang in the sand at the very center of the ruin.

The powerful external Heavenly Eye activated a frantic devouring rhythm. What terrifying power was unleashed!

In an instant, it devoured the surrounding endless sandstorm into nothingness. After the sand completely vanished, the complete ruin was revealed.

The colossal creature that had just unleashed the devouring power also quickly appeared under the suppression of Xu Yang's Heavenly Eye. It was a gigantic toad hidden deep beneath the ruin.

Its body was tens of meters wide, and its surface was covered in very peculiar, huge fleshy lumps, which gave off a repulsive appearance.

However, even with Xu Yang and Po Xiao's level of strength, they did not underestimate the power of this enormous toad.
