610: Chapter 610 Sandworm Dies Suddenly, Parting Ways!

Just as Li Fan was contemplating future plans for the abyssal wind pearl.

Elsewhere.

Peng Song and the others had already tortured Crane Slaughter to a state beyond recognition.

Seeing that the group was about to end Crane Slaughter's wretched life.

Li Fan's voice rang out at that moment.

"Wait!"

Hearing Li Fan's voice, Peng Song and the others immediately halted, their gazes turning towards Li Fan with puzzled expressions.

Li Fan didn't keep them in suspense and said slowly, "Let me ask him a few questions first before you kill him."

That's right.

Since Crane Slaughter was one of the He Family bloodline, it was perfectly possible to try and inquire from his mouth about the whereabouts of the other three.

However, it was a great pity.

After a round of severe interrogation and torture, Crane Slaughter genuinely seemed unaware of where the others were.

Regarding this, Li Fan naturally had no other choice and could only decisively finish off Crane Slaughter.

After dealing with Crane Slaughter.

Peng Song and his group then came to their senses, lavishing praise on the combat prowess Li Fan had just displayed, their faces filled with the joy of having survived a calamity and the satisfaction of vengeance.

Of course, this naturally also included gratitude for Li Fan's life-saving grace.

However, soon, the joy on everyone's faces gradually faded into silence.

Although they had now eliminated these Prodigies from the Alien Universe, their fellow countrymen who had been brutally killed could not be brought back to life.

Afterwards.

Following a simple memorial for those deceased compatriots.

The group's thoughts shifted to the sandworm.

"Brother Fan, it seems we'll have to stay in this sandworm's stomach for a while. This beast's rumination cycle is ridiculously long."

Peng Song said at this moment.

Several Senior Students nearby also nodded repeatedly, shaking their heads and frowning.

They had been here longer than Li Fan, so they understood this place better.

However, regarding this, Li Fan just shrugged, "It's fine. There's no danger here anyway, so we can just wait it out slowly."

Li Fan appeared very nonchalant.

Upon hearing this, Peng Song and the several Senior Students could only smile helplessly.

Given the current situation, there was nothing to do but wait patiently.

However, while Li Fan said this on the surface, in reality, the very next second, Li Fan directly used Annihilation Eye on the sandworm.

Waiting was out of the question.

If the sandworm wouldn't let him out, then the only option was to send it to its grave.

And in the second after Li Fan used it.

The sandworm lost all signs of life.

The gastric juices that had been dripping outside instantly dissipated, and the entire stomach cavity lost its color in the blink of an eye, becoming rigid and decaying.

This scene immediately caused Peng Song and the others' expressions to change.

"This!"

"What... what's going on?!"

"Th-this sandworm seems to have no life force?!"

They all stood up one after another, both shocked and deeply puzzled.

The sandworm was perfectly fine just moments ago, how did it suddenly kick the bucket?!

Li Fan then also pretended to look puzzled, "That's strange. It was perfectly fine, how did it suddenly die? Could it be that the sandworm encountered some mortal enemy?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

They effectively redirected everyone's train of thought.

"That's possible!"

"It seems that's not impossible. Besides that, there probably isn't any other explanation, right?"

Everyone now frowned and nodded one after another.

And soon, a Senior Student spoke up sharply.

"Let's not dwell on the exact reason for now. Since the sandworm is dead, we should hurry and get out first, to avoid further complications!"

Hearing this.

Everyone's expressions turned grave, and they nodded in succession.

Indeed, given the current situation, it wasn't the time to dwell on why the sandworm died. The most important thing was to escape first!

Subsequently, that Senior Student's gaze turned to Li Fan.

"Li Fan, you should take the abyssal wind pearl. It belongs to you."

Without Li Fan, they would surely have been dead. So, giving this opportunity to Li Fan was something no one would oppose.

Li Fan naturally didn't stand on ceremony, having never considered being modest in the first place. He shrugged and directly pocketed the abyssal wind pearl.

Immediately after.

The group began moving upwards from the esophagus.

When the sandworm was alive, this area was filled with corrosive vapors and accompanied by strong gaseous resistance.

Now that the sandworm was dead, all obstructions naturally disappeared.

Therefore, the group's escape proceeded very smoothly.

After about several dozen breaths.

The group returned to the surface of the desert.

"Damn! It still feels more familiar here!"

"Finally out!"

"Hahaha!"

At this moment, Peng Song and the others looked at everything outside, each one incredibly excited, as if they had been reborn.

Li Fan, however, was fine, without excessive sentimentality.

But glancing back at the sandworm's enormous maw did make him pause for a moment, startling him a bit.

This sandworm was truly huge!

And soon.

After a brief discussion, the group prepared to embark on a new journey.

After all, in the Pure Land Zone, seeking opportunities was the main theme.

They couldn't stay in the desert forever.

And the group, especially Peng Song, strongly hoped that Li Fan could join their team.

Peng Song even considered leaving the team to pair up with Li Fan.

But Li Fan refused them all.

It was still the same issue: with teammates present, his Annihilation Eye couldn't be used as freely as he wished.

Moreover, his next plan was to continue staying in this desert to properly go into seclusion and cultivate.

To see if he could first cultivate the Law of Wind, and while he was at it, seize the moment to comprehend the Law of Thunder as well.

As for the He Family bloodline, Alien Universe Prodigy hideouts, and other opportunities.

Li Fan temporarily planned to put them on hold.

The opportunities he currently possessed needed to be digested a bit first. He would deal with other matters after finishing that.

And since Li Fan politely declined the invitation.

Peng Song and the others didn't insist further, choosing to respect Li Fan's decision.

However, before parting, both sides urged each other to be careful.

Li Fan even gave Peng Song some treasures. These items weren't of much use to Li Fan himself, but given to Peng Song, they might save his life at a critical moment!

And soon.

Watching the departing figures of Peng Song and the others.

as a turtle was finally released by Li Fan.

Ever since Li Fan initiated his slaughter spree, as a turtle had been moved into his inner universe.

as a turtle looked at the desert now before him and could basically guess what had just happened.

His fellow countrymen were most likely already... gone!

Thinking of this, as a turtle immediately began demonstrating his value.

"Brother Fan, are we heading to the next gathering point now? I'll take you there right away!"

But Li Fan spoke slowly.

"Not for now."

"I'm going into seclusion first!"
