Chapter 578: Surrounded From All Directions!
Chapter 578: Surrounded From All Directions!
Even Tang Li Xue was still not sure just how many gigantic sandworms were here until now.
Continuing to fight against so many gigantic sandworms like this was definitely an unwise choice since she would certainly be exhausted sooner or later.
Tang Li Xue’s mind started to think fast to find a way out of this more desperate situation.
But she still did not stop controlling the huge deep blue sword to cut the approaching gigantic sandworms!
PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~!
Protected by the deep blue transparent barrier, Tang Li Xue might look unaffected by the extremely violent sandstorm, but she still could not fly in this weather.
Besieged by so many gigantic sandworms from all directions, Tang Li Xue also could not just run away from them with her feet.
Just when Tang Li Xue was still thinking very hard, the sand below her feet was suddenly trembling violently!
RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! BOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
Tang Li Xue was thrown off into the air as a gigantic sandworm appeared all of a sudden from the sand below her feet!
Tang Li Xue skillfully controlled the huge deep blue sword to swiftly move closer toward her, and she landed on top of it!
However, the violent sandstorm greatly shook the huge deep blue sword and almost made Tang Li Xue fall down from it.
Without waiting for Tang Li Xue to stabilize her footing, several gigantic sandworms already opened their huge mouth filled with sharp teeth and pounced toward her from below!
“This damn sandstorm~! Is it helping these sandworms to fight against me~?!” Tang Li Xue scolded in annoyance.
Tang Li Xue tapped her feet and jumped from the deep blue sword, then the huge deep blue sword suddenly spun with lightning speed!
Sword Art of Mystic Harmony], Repelling Spins!
PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~! PUUUFFFF~!
All of the gigantic sandworms that pounced toward Tang Li Xue were cut into several pieces by the spinning huge deep blue sword!
But as a consequence, the jumping Tang Li Xue was blown away by the violent sandstorm!
At this moment, Tang Li Xue’s topaz blue eyes were shining like a pair of blue stars in excitement.
“I can get out from here using this way~?! Cough, cough… I mean all is according to my plan. Of course, this has been my plan since the very beginning!” Tang Li Xue shamelessly exclaimed with a delighted tone.
Tang Li Xue might not be able to fly in this violent sandstorm, but she could just let it blow her away like this.
Tang Li Xue quickly controlled the huge deep blue sword to fly closer to her, and then she changed the deep blue sword’s form into a large umbrella.
The base of the large umbrella was attached to Tang Li Xue’s deep blue barrier.
When the huge umbrella was blown away by the violent sandstorm, Tang Li Xue inside the deep blue barrier would also follow it.
The way it worked was the same as the parachute, but Tang Li Xue made them a lot stronger from her Flame of Pride and [Energy Manipulation].
It was completely different from before when Tang Li Xue used a pair of [Phoenix Wings] to fly, then the violent sandstorm blew her away until she spun dizzily in the air and crashed down onto the sand.
However, those gigantic sandworms have not given up on swallowing Tang Li Xue yet!
Many gigantic sandworms hungrily chased after Tang Li Xue and jumped onto her again while opening their huge mouth filled with sharp teeth!
“Tsk~! Just how persistent are you?!” Tang Li Xue muttered with a disgusted tone.
Tang Li Xue did not want those gigantic sandworms to catch up to her, so she could only spend some of her energy condensing a solid deep blue wall to obstruct them for a few moments.
BAAAAAAANNGG~! BAAAAAAANNGG~! BAAAAAAANNGG~!
The gigantic sandworms crawling on the very front crashed into the solid deep blue wall while the ones behind crashed into them.
The solid deep blue wall crumbled apart by the violent crash, but it had already completed its mission by stalling time for Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue sighed in relief when the violent sandstorm blew her further and further away from the nest of gigantic sandworms.
Tang Li Xue still did not know where this violent sandstorm would bring her, but the requirement to win this treasure game was to survive longer than the other foxes so she did not mind wandering around randomly for a bit longer as long as the situation was completely safe.
Tang Li Xue took this rare chance to rest and restore her energy.
Unfortunately, her rare peaceful moment to rest did not last long as she met with another unfavorable situation after fifteen minutes or so.
“Sigh… Here we go again?! This damn treasure game is really planning to kill all of us until one last fox remains~!” Tang Li Xue complained in resentment.
The violent sandstorm completely blocked Tang Li Xue’s vision, so she could not see anything at all from inside the deep blue barrier.
Even her [Extrasensory Perception] failed to give any warning on time.
By the time Tang Li Xue had realized the incoming danger, it was already too late for her to avoid it.
BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~! BOOOOOMM~!
Thousands of flame crows already besieged Tang Li Xue from all directions and launched their fireball attack toward the deep blue barrier!
Tang Li Xue’s deep blue barrier was instantly filled with countless cracks under the first salvo of the entire legion of fire crows!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs in anger as she condensed a huge deep blue sword with her Flame of Pride and [Energy Manipulation] before they could break her barrier!
[Supreme Speed Sword Style], Rapid Quick Slashes!
The huge deep blue sword danced around swiftly to cut those despicable flame crows!
But different from the previous gigantic sandworms, these fire crows were not only much smaller but also much more agile and fast than them!
Even Tang Li Xue’s [Rapid Quick Slashes] only managed to cut very few of the fire crows!
“What the hell~! These fire crows are actually much more annoying than those disgusting sandworms?!” Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise.
If the previous gigantic sandworms were the fearless meat tanks, then these fire crows were coordinated assassins!
Moreover, they could fly around very swiftly completely unhindered by the violent sandstorm!
No, this violent sandstorm might even be the one who gave them a large speed boost!
Those fire crows shot another salvo of fireballs mercilessly toward Tang Li Xue for the second time!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
The thick deep blue barrier was shattered by their attack in an instant!
*Ding!
[(Sun And Moon Aegis) resisted a deadly blow for you! (2/3)]
Thankfully, her [Sun And Moon Aegis]’s deadly blow protection had already finished its cooldown, if not, Tang Li Xue would surely be eliminated from this Foxes Hunting Festival!
After the barrier and the huge umbrella were destroyed, Tang Li Xue fell down from the sky, while those fire crows chased after her by swooping down at high speed.
Tang Li Xue plunged into a violent sandstorm and found it very hard to breathe in this extreme weather.
Before those fire crows could launch another attack on her, Tang Li Xue decided to use her [Mystic Whisper] to stop them!
“Go, fight them to death~!”
The mysterious sound penetrated directly into the minds of several nearby fire crows!
In that instant, those several fire crows turned around and started to attack their own kind!
BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~! BOOOM~!
“Eh? Using [Mystic Whisper] on these fire crows actually consumes much less energy compared to using it on the previous gigantic sandworms?!” Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise.
Tang Li Xue also wondered why it was like that. These fire crows were clearly much smarter than the previous brainless sandworms. Maybe because of the difference in their size?
But it was clearly not the time to think about that since Tang Li Xue already crashed hard onto the sand, and the sand below started to tremble violently!
“Now what?!” Tang Li Xue shouted in anger.
Countless three meters long sand scorpions were pouring out from inside the sand!
Tang Li Xue’s body went numb in that instant when she saw the terrifying scene in front of her eyes.
Meanwhile, the other fire crows already surrounded Tang Li Xue and launched another fireball salvo toward her!
Tang Li Xue gnashed her fangs and hastily urged her [Sun Dragon Claws]!
A pair of [Sun Dragon Claws] exploded, and Tang Li Xue was thrown away tens of meters because of the shockwave explosion!
So many angry sand scorpions already crawled toward Tang Li Xue and stabbed their venomous tails toward her!
Without even having any time to breathe or stand up, Tang Li Xue compressed a deep blue [Fire Bomb] from her Flame of Pride and threw it on the crowd of sand scorpions!
BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!
A great explosion managed to kill tens of sand scorpions at once, but it also made the other sand scorpions become even angrier at Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xue started to breathe heavier as her energy and stamina were drained more and more rapidly in this intense battle.
The sand that entered her breath made her extremely uncomfortable.
The fire crows who were still flying in the air launched another fireball salvo on Tang Li Xue.
“These little bast*rds~! Just because they are fast and can fly in the sandstorm, they really think I cannot do anything to them?!” Tang Li Xue gnashed her teeth in anger.
