240: The End of the Sand Temple

Heavenly Flame Seven Severance Slash!

Xia Qi manifested seven phantom images, continuously unleashing slashes.

All seven flame slashes struck the monster, instantly cutting open its skin.

Unfortunately, it was just a superficial wound.

From the monster's wound, black liquid seeped out, and the wound instantly healed again.

Such a situation was not uncommon in this dungeon; it seemed that the monsters here more or less possessed recovery abilities.

Moreover, they were all extremely difficult to deal with, making it not easy to clear the dungeon.

At this moment, the monster looked at him.

In just an instant, the monster lunged at Xia Qi.

Xia Qi immediately retreated, dodging the attack.

The Sand around the monster's body suddenly began to solidify.

The Sand transformed into sharp blades, rushing towards Xia Qi.

Seeing this, Xia Qi immediately unleashed a slash.

The attacks of both collided, instantly causing the Sand in the arena to fly everywhere.

In front of Xia Qi, only a cloud of smoke remained.

He stared intently ahead, gripping his sword tighter.

Suddenly, a black shadow rapidly rushed out of the smoke.

Xia Qi reacted quickly, immediately holding his sword horizontally to block.

The two collided, creating a deafening roar.

Xia Qi only felt a huge force strike him, causing him to stagger back repeatedly.

The monster approached again, and the Sand blades reformed, preparing to launch a second round of attacks.

Xia Qi took a deep breath, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

The monster's strength was astonishingly powerful; after the previous probing, this was no longer an opponent that could be dealt with in just one or two blows.

Compared to the previous phantom, this was significantly stronger.

Xia Qi also noticed that the arm that had escaped earlier was now on the monster's body.

Although the appearance of the arm had changed, Xia Qi still recognized the smooth cut.

The arm had not recovered, which indicated that the monster's self-healing ability also had limitations.

Xia Qi's heart stirred, and he suddenly recalled the characteristics of the monster he had defeated before.

Although those monsters all possessed powerful recovery abilities, they all seemed to have a fatal weakness.

He quickly observed the monster in front of him, trying to find its weakness.

Just then, the monster attacked again.

Sand blades rained down like a storm, and Xia Qi could only continuously swing his sword to block.

He blocked while observing the monster's movements.

Then, endless lightning descended from the sky, striking the monster.

Xia Qi retreated repeatedly, widening the distance.

Thousands of Elemental Flowers floated towards the monster, all hovering around it.

The moment the lightning bombardment disappeared, all the Elemental Flowers exploded.

The violent explosion blew away all the surrounding Sand.

The monster landed in a crater, its body already riddled with holes.

Xia Qi was about to attack again when suddenly, countless Sand quickly enveloped the monster.

In just a blink of an eye, the monster's body repaired itself at an extremely fast speed.

However, Xia Qi noticed that the previous arm still had not been repaired.

Xia Qi had an idea, then quickly attacked.

Lingxu Sword!

Demon Slayer!

With this sword, the monster had nowhere to dodge, but Xia Qi aimed at the arms on its body.

Countless Sword Qi swarmed in, incredibly powerful.

Directly severing all those arms, which all fell to the ground.

On the monster's body, only a pile of exposed flesh remained.

Absolute Zero!

Xia Qi immediately froze the monster and those arms, restricting their movement.

Group Weakening!

At the same time, Xia Qi used Group Weakening to reduce their attributes.

Under the effect of the dual abilities, the monster's movements had become extremely slow.

Earlier, he had noticed a subtle movement from the monster.

Whenever the monster was about to launch an attack, its eyes would flicker slightly.

It was those aged eyes; it seemed that was where its control lay.

And those arms were the source of its abilities.

As long as the arms were on its body, it could repair itself.

Similarly, once the arms left its body, even if they returned, they could not be directly repaired.

Xia Qi's heart stirred, and he immediately launched his final attack.

He fiercely unleashed a powerful slash, forcing the monster back.

Then, while the monster had not yet launched its next attack, he flashed, instantly arriving beside the monster.

The sword in his hand pointed directly at the monster's eyes.

A brilliant light flashed, and Xia Qi's sword accurately pierced the monster's eyes.

The monster let out a shrill scream, and its entire body began to tremble violently.

Xia Qi could feel that the monster's life force was rapidly draining away.

He gripped the sword in his hand tightly, not daring to relax in the slightest.

He turned in the air and swung another sword at the monster.

Countless sword shadows appeared in the air, leaving a long sword mark behind the monster.

Finally, with a loud bang, the monster's body completely collapsed, transforming into a patch of Sand and dissipating into the air.

Xia Qi breathed a sigh of relief, only then realizing that he was covered in cold sweat.

This battle was even more difficult than he had imagined.

But thankfully, it was finally resolved.

He sheathed his sword and walked to the arms that had fallen to the ground.

Although these arms had lost their vitality, powerful energy fluctuations still remained on them.

Xia Qi's heart stirred; he thought of a possible way to utilize them.

He tried to collect these arms, preparing to take them back to the research institute for study.

Perhaps the energy contained within these arms could provide him with more inspiration and help.

But just as he was about to pick up those arms, they quickly turned into Sand and dissipated on the spot.

Xia Qi stood in the desert, gazing into the distance.

Ahead, only a main hall remained.

This should be the final area of the Sand God Temple.

The end of this dungeon should be ahead, and the final boss should also be waiting for him there.

Xia Qi walked towards the main hall; although it was visible, it was actually still a long distance away.

Vaguely, he saw some figures moving outside the main hall.

Xia Qi continued walking, and those figures were also appearing and disappearing.

As Xia Qi walked, those figures gradually became clearer.

They were rows of soldiers, and in front of them, there were some commanders.

It seemed like teams, standing ready for battle.

And in the center of the Sand God Temple, the main gate was wide open.

At the very center, there was a person holding a scepter, looking at Xia Qi.

Beside that person, there was also a pair of enormous eyes, constantly moving.

Many more soldiers emerged from the main hall, surrounding the entire main hall.

Soon, Xia Qi saw the monster on the opposite side.

It was an incredibly huge snake, flicking its tongue at Xia Qi.

It seemed this should be the end of this dungeon.
