Moreover, they discovered that their divine sense could only cover a few miles, and their power was greatly reduced compared to before.
“How could this happen? How could our strength suddenly be suppressed so badly?”
“I can’t breathe,” Liu Xue said anxiously, her face full of worry.
David took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: “Don’t panic. Since we can’t fly, let’s walk around and see if we can find people and ask them what this place is.”
Thus, the two of them arduously dragged their exhausted bodies across the scorching hot sand.
Every step they took left deep footprints, and the hot sand burned the soles of their feet until it penetrated the bottom of their shoes.
However, to uncover the secret of this place, they had no choice but to steel their resolve and continue fighting.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, a rustling sound suddenly came from ahead, as if something was moving fast under the sand.
David and Liu Xue immediately became alert, standing back to back with their eyes fixed forward.
Not long after, a group of snakes emerged from the sand. These snakes vary in size and color, some are jet black and others are colorful.
They hissed and stuck out their tongues, surrounding David and Liu Xue, their eyes gleaming with greed.
“Oh no, a bunch of snakes!”
Liu Xue exclaimed in surprise, gripping her long sword tightly, ready to face the snake swarm’s attack at any time.
David clenched his fists, a glimmer of determination flashed in his eyes: “Don’t panic, we will handle this carefully.”
The snakes began their attack, swarming towards them like arrows released from a bow.
David and Liu Xue quickly brandished their weapons and engaged in a fierce battle with the snake herd.
However, because their strength was suppressed, their movements became much slower, and it took a lot of effort to chase away each snake.
As the battle continued, the snake herd became more and more numerous, seemingly endless. David and Liu Xue slowly had a hard time dealing with them, suffering several snake bites that left their clothes stained with blood.
“This can’t go on; we have to find a way to get rid of them!”
David shouted loudly.
Just then, a giant snake appeared from the snake herd. This snake was as big as a bucket, and its scales glittered like metal. That’s the Snake King.
The snake king stuck out its tongue and let out a deafening roar, as if taunting David and Liu Xue.
