Chapter 1601: Deception!
"We’re there?"
Jiang Feng and Mu Qiuyi were stunned when they heard this, looking down to see the barren desert beneath them where Quanyang Chun was pointing. It looked like nothing special, just a bigger sandstorm.
This was actually the location of the Netherworld Hall?!
It was truly incredible!
"Let’s go down; if we fly any further, we’ll overshoot!" Quanyang Chun said with a sinister smile.
He was eager for revenge after enduring the humiliation along the way. At last, Jiang Feng and Mu Qiuyi were delivered to the tiger’s den!
Mu Qiuyi didn’t hesitate and reluctantly piloted the helicopter, descending.
Soon, the helicopter landed in the heart of the Great Desert, where the yellow sand was everywhere.
This place was indeed desolate, not even a trace of human habitation, let alone a green plant, looking particularly barren and desolate.
In the rush to depart, Mu Qiuyi had forgotten to bring goggles and windbreaker. As soon as she stepped off the helicopter, she was choking on the raging yellow sand, even feeling a bit suffocated, her jade face turning bright red.
Jiang Feng felt a bit helpless, realizing the trouble of traveling with a woman. He immediately stripped off his shirt, soaked it with water from a bottle, and handed it to Mu Qiuyi, saying, "Cover your nose with this, you’ll feel better."
Mu Qiuyi hesitated for a moment, surprised by Jiang Feng’s considerate side. But without saying anything, she took the shirt and covered her mouth and nose.
With the shirt on, she indeed felt better. Additionally, the shirt carried Jiang Feng’s scent, making her heart feel strangely moved.
"Where is it?"
Jiang Feng dragged Quanyang Chun down, kicking him in the butt to make him lead the way.
Quanyang Chun staggered, filled with anger that Jiang Feng treated him like a guide dog!
His original plan was to directly lead Jiang Feng to the Netherworld Hall entrance, but his sinister intentions were changed.
After walking a couple of steps, he deliberately withdrew his inner strength, causing his injured arm to start bleeding again, dripping onto the desert ground.
Feigning innocence, he turned back to Jiang Feng and Mu Qiuyi, saying, "Just ahead, follow me!"
Jiang Feng and Mu Qiuyi followed him forward.
But just then, Jiang Feng suddenly felt something was wrong!
His perception of Spiritual Energy was always exceptional, and he keenly felt a surge of vibrations from beneath the ground, as if something was rushing toward them from afar!
Its speed was as fast as a torpedo in the sea!
He abruptly stopped, causing the unsuspecting Mu Qiuyi behind him to almost bump into him.
"What’s up?" Mu Qiuyi asked with furrowed brows.
Jiang Feng didn’t respond, suddenly turning and hugging Mu Qiuyi tightly, shielding her behind!
"What are you doing?"
Mu Qiuyi, still perplexed, was a mix of shame and shock, never expecting Jiang Feng to act so suddenly. Just as she was annoyed, she also felt something amiss underfoot!
Lowering her head quickly, suddenly she saw the ground where she just stood explode into a big hole!
Then, a massive creature, like an Abyss Giant Python, swiftly burst from the ground, opening its millstone-sized mouth to swallow her!
If not for Jiang Feng’s timely intervention pulling her aside at the critical moment, she would have been bitten by that monstrous maw!
"What is this?!"
Mu Qiuyi was dazed by the mammoth creature emerging from nowhere!
Her worldview was shattered because that was indeed no creature within human knowledge; it was a genuine Death Worm, a giant Huo’s Undead Worm!!
This gigantic worm seemed more than ten meters long, entirely red, with no eyes but two enormous antennae on its head. Its gaping mouth was like an abyss, filled with serrated razor-sharp teeth!
Interlocking teeth that gnaw everything!
These monstrous jaws and teeth, not to mention swallowing a person whole, could rip off a chunk of flesh with a single bite, causing excruciating pain!
"Is there really such a thing?!"
Mu Qiuyi was terrified, swallowing dryly.
At this moment, she completely lost her composure as a Dragon Group leader, appearing as just a frightened ordinary girl!
Indeed, any woman would be frightened by such a dreadful worm, a real-life monster!
As for Jiang Feng, he thought things weren’t as simple when he looked at the giant worm!
Suppose this was the Netherworld Hall entrance, why did the worm appear the moment they landed?
Was it a coincidence or a setup?
Suddenly, he noticed the scattered blood drops on the ground, instantly grasping the situation!
He spun around and realized Quanyang Chun had vanished into the sandstorm ahead!
That guy seized the opportunity to escape while Jiang Feng and Mu Qiuyi were distracted by the worm!
"Damn!"
Jiang Feng gritted his teeth, ultimately underestimating the Japanese cunning!
This Death Worm seemed to like sharks in the sea, sensing the blood from kilometers away, which was why Quanyang Chun intentionally dripped blood to lure it!
"Jiang Feng, look at what it’s doing!"
Suddenly, Mu Qiuyi exclaimed, seeing the giant mouth of the Death Worm contracting into a mass, with a large greenish-black substance forming inside.
Jiang Feng ignored its actions, holding Mu Qiuyi tight, retreating a few steps, only to watch that massive mouth spray out a stream of greenish-black liquid onto the spot they had just been.
The liquid had a pungent, foul smell, and upon hitting the desert ground, it corroded a deep pit instantly, showing its lethal poison!
"Sparkling!"
The Death Worm seemed to realize it didn’t hit its target, causing its two gigantic antennae to clash together, visibly generating electricity to release!
This was unexpected for Jiang Feng; the giant worm could spray venom and discharge electricity like an electric eel?
He tried to dodge with Mu Qiuyi, but it was too late!
The Death Worm’s electrical discharge was not just a mere cable release but enveloping a network of electricity within a dozen meters, affecting every living thing!
As the powerful current came down, Jiang Feng remained unharmed, easily shielding himself with Demonic Qi. But Mu Qiuyi wasn’t as fortunate, failing to raise her legs timely and struck by the electrical grid!
Instantly, her legs went numb, and she trembled, sliding from Jiang Feng’s hold!
The Death Worm seized the chance, reopening its mouth with interlocking teeth, lunging down to swallow Mu Qiuyi whole!
