Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 965 Fall Of The Guardian Of The Desert

Swoosh~!

As the freezing cold power of the Dao of Ice rushed inside the body of the sandworm, it immediately transformed into small ice crystals that froze everything they passed by before replacing the already exhausted power from the Dao of Corruption and the sword energy in fighting against the yellow qi belonging to the Dao of Sand.

Crakle~

Following the ice crystals meeting the yellow qi, a noticeable crackling sound could be heard throughout the body of the sandworm, as the ice crystals attached themselves to the yellow qi before freezing them in place.

Roar!?

Trying to gather more yellow qi from the surrounding desert to fight back against the ice crystals, the sandworm could not help letting out a panicked roar, as it realized that the yellow qi had met its natural enemy. No matter how much yellow qi it gathered from the sand around it, it couldnʼt do anything to the ice crystals that were rapidly spreading throughout its entire body without slowing down.

Whoosh-!

Before long, some of the ice crystals inside the body of the sandworm began following the yellow qi out of the body of the sandworm before spreading into the sand that covered the sandworm-

Roar!?

And before the sandworm realized what was happening, the sand all over its body that it was using to create the yellow qi, froze in place. Not only that, but the sand around its body also froze over completely. Locking the sandworm in place and preventing it from escaping into the sand below.

ROOOOOOOAR!

Knowing how bad its current situation was as it clearly felt the ice crystal starting to freeze its entire body from the inside, the sandworm began thrashing around in an attempt to free itself from the frozen sand that imprisoned it-

Crack!

Given just how powerful the physical body of the sandworm was, the frozen sand had no way to hold the powerful sandworm in place, as it directly shattered apart after the sandworm began thrashing around.

Of course, Xuan Hao had never expected to keep the sandworm in place. All he really wanted to do was buy more time for the freezing cold power of the Dao of Ice to spread through the body of the sandworm.

Rumble~

For this reason, Xuan Hao decided to use what little power was still left in him to create dozens of small ice chains that from the broken frozen sand on the ground to bind the sandworm and hold it in place before it had a chance to escape beneath the sand.

ROAR!

Feeling the dozens of chains that was now holding it in place, the sandwormʼs killing intent exploded again as it began thrashing around to break free from the chains.

Craaaaack-!

However, different from the frozen sand that had held it in place before, the sandworm had grown noticeably weaker during this short period of time as the ice crystals continued spreading inside of its body. Making it harder and harder for it to make use of its powerful physical body to break free from the icy chains.

Craaack-!

Even when it broke apart one of the chains, it was soon replaced by a new one, as Xuan Hao used whatever energy he managed to recover to create new ice chains that could prevent it from escaping. Not intending to let it run away after going through such a long and exhausting battle.

R-Roar!

Realizing that it was no use, as it felt the ice crystal starting to spread to its vital organs, the sandworm could not help letting out a final defiant roar before the ice crystal managed to fully engulf its vital organs. Killing its body before freezing its soul to death a short time later.

”Finally…”

Feeling the soul of the sandworm disappearing along with all signs of life from its body, Xuan Hao let out a sigh of relief as he stopped providing qi to the ice chains holding its body in place-

Craaaaaaack~

Bang! Bang

Instantly causing the dozens of ice chains to shatter before falling to the ground in large chunks of frozen sand.

BOOOOM-!

Only a short second later, the massive body of the sandworm fell to the ground. Not able to remain upright any longer without the help of the large ice chains.

Thump~

Not able to keep himself in the air due to exhaustion any longer, Xuan Hao used the last bit of qi left I his body to land on the ground before closing his eyes to recover as fast as possible. Although he had managed to defeat the guardian of the desert, he also understood that there were still other sandworms in the desert and given his current exhausted state, he would most likely not even be able to face off against the Domain Lord Realm sandworm that he had encountered earlier on…

Rustle~

Poking its small head out at this moment before rapidly scanning its surroundings for something, the rabbit demon beast soon showed a relieved expression on its face after realizing that the preservation golem from earlier was nowhere to be found before turning its attention towards Xuan Hao.

Squeak?

Seeing Xuan Haoʼs exhausted state as he was fully focused on recovering, the rabbit demon beast could not help tilting its head in confusion. Not understanding what had happened during the time that it had hidden away inside his robe.

Squeak!?

Beginning to scan the surroundings for something that wasnʼt the preservation golem, the rabbit demon beast soon spotted the giant frozen sandworm laying no more than a few hundred meters away from it.

Squeak…

Feeling the terrifying power still lingering in the air around the sandworm before looking back towards Xuan Hao who had completely shut off the world outside to recover as fast as possible, the rabbit demon beast could not help showing a hint of admiration on its almost permanently arrogant little face.

For the first time since it had decided to follow after Xuan Hao, the little rabbit demon beast began to admire him.
