Chapter 698

Following that, he turned around again and reached his hand holding the stone awl into the guardian beast's mouth.

Before the guardian beast could react, Chen Ang's hand had already retracted.

Subsequently, a sense of pain spread in the guardian beast's mouth.

That's right, Chen Ang's plan succeeded!

746: The Guardian Beast's Purpose

The guardian beast wanted to spit out the thing in its mouth, but no matter how it tried, it couldn't spit it out!

The stone awl was stuck firmly in its mouth!

Seeing this, the guardian beast was furious!

Since it couldn't spit out the stone awl, the guardian beast decided to endure the pain and bite it to pieces!

However, what the guardian beast didn't expect was that when it bit down, the stone awl in its mouth didn't break at all...

On the contrary, the stone awl got stuck even deeper, and the wound became even larger!

Blood flowed from its mouth.

The guardian beast instantly didn't dare to roar anymore, let alone try to bite it to pieces!

"I specially found a good thing for you; you can't possibly take it out!"

Chen Ang looked at the guardian beast and said. "As long as you don't call out, nothing big will happen."

Actually, if Chen Ang weren't here, given time, the guardian beast could take the stone awl out of its mouth itself.

But now, as an intruder and someone who wanted to take the Eight-Petaled Sand Flower, the guardian beast couldn't just let Chen Ang be!

So, even if its mouth couldn't attack, its sharp claws and hard body could still launch attacks on Chen Ang.

The guardian beast stomped on the ground, and the ground instantly cracked with several fissures.

And from those fissures, magma and a burst of flames instantly erupted.

This wasn't ordinary magma!

Even if a powerhouse at the Emperor Realm touched a little bit of this kind of magma, it could cause severe burns!

And for such burns, applying medicine for mild cases could allow for recovery.

But if it were severe, it could even damage the internal organs and the foundation!

Even with medicine, it would take a period of recuperation to recover!

This was the case for Emperor Realm powerhouses, let alone for people at the Sovereign Realm!

If a human at the early stage of the Sovereign Realm touched it, they would definitely be burned to ashes in an instant.

If someone at the mid-stage touched it, they would at least be seriously injured!

Thinking of this, Chen Ang couldn't help but gasp.

"This guy... what is it planning to do? If it touches this kind of magma itself, it can't possibly be fine, right?"

Chen Ang thought to himself. "Or is it that it doesn't care about life or death and intends to perish with me?"

Thinking of this, Chen Ang immediately opened up the distance from the guardian beast!

He saw the guardian beast still angrily stomping on the ground.

Fissures spread out from under the guardian beast's feet, and in a short while, there were already more than twenty fissures of various sizes on the ground.

Seeing this, Chen Ang narrowed his eyes as he looked at the guardian beast.

He saw the guardian beast charging at Chen Ang and stomping on the ground fiercely again.

"It doesn't seem to intend to attack me now; is it my imagination?"

Chen Ang thought in surprise.

He could clearly feel that while the guardian beast looked like it was attacking Chen Ang on the surface, it wasn't actually attacking Chen Ang.

Every time the guardian beast attacked, Chen Ang could dodge it easily!

"What exactly is its purpose?"

Chen Ang thought to himself.

Thinking of this, Chen Ang carefully observed the surrounding environment.

Then he carefully observed every move of the guardian beast!

After observing for a period of time, Chen Ang realized that the places the guardian beast stomped on were regular!

It wasn't stomping blindly!

Chen Ang had originally thought the guardian beast intended to use the power of the magma to deal with him.

However, Chen Ang had thought too simply!

The guardian beast's purpose wasn't what Chen Ang thought; it was much more serious than he imagined!

He saw those fissures spreading toward the surroundings, and soon, the fissures were about to merge together!

When the fissures merged, it meant that the ground was about to be cut into pieces!

It might even sink directly into the magma!

Thinking of this, Chen Ang frowned tightly.

"I really underestimated you!"

Chen Ang thought to himself.

He saw the guardian beast still continuing with its plan.

And the area the guardian beast intended to sink into the magma happened to be the area where the Eight-Petaled Sand Flower was located.

It wasn't hard to see that the guardian beast not only wanted to take Chen Ang into hell together, but also wanted to take the Eight-Petaled Sand Flower away!

"Does it know it can't beat me, so it's resorting to this desperate measure?"

Chen Ang frowned tightly and thought to himself. "No, I can't let its plan succeed! If there's going to be death, it can go die itself; I'm not keeping it company!"

Thinking of this, Chen Ang stopped caring about the guardian beast and charged directly toward the Eight-Petaled Sand Flower.

Although the guardian beast was fast and its plan was about to succeed.

Seeing that the ground was about to be broken into several pieces, Chen Ang also became serious.

He ran at his fastest speed.

And the guardian beast seemed to see that Chen Ang had seen through its scheme, so it accelerated the destruction of the ground!

Those fissures spread rapidly toward the surroundings.

And the fissures that had opened before were also getting larger!

The magma under the ground was like an eruption, crazily gushing out to the ground.

Seeing this, the guardian beast turned around with satisfaction and chased after Chen Ang.

This was something it had meticulously planned, and it didn't intend to let Chen Ang escape!

Even if it couldn't attack Chen Ang, it had to trap Chen Ang here!

"Crack, crack—"

"Crack, crack, crack—"

A series of crisp cracking sounds rang out.

Probably because there were fissures and magma erupting, the ground was also being crazily swallowed by the magma.

Without the guardian beast continuing to attack the ground, the ground was also crazily cracking in various places.

And those areas that had been cut into small sections had already sunk to the bottom of the magma.

"Damn it..."

Seeing this, Chen Ang frowned tightly. "I must be faster!"

Thinking of this, Chen Ang accelerated again.

At this moment, the path leading to the location of the Eight-Petaled Sand Flower wasn't cracked very severely yet.

However, most of the area behind Chen Ang was already untreadable!

The guardian beast looked at Chen Ang's back triumphantly, quietly guarding a place where the ground wasn't cracked very severely.

It wasn't letting Chen Ang go; it was waiting for Chen Ang to turn back!

The guardian beast's intelligence wasn't low; when Chen Ang turned back to try to escape, the ground would already be cracked very severely!

If it attacked Chen Ang and blocked his path, even if it couldn't touch Chen Ang, it could still trap Chen Ang here!

By then, without it attacking, Chen Ang himself wouldn't be able to find a place to step, and would finally fall into the magma.

Watching the ground around him crack, the little guy also immediately jumped onto Chen Ang!

Although the little guy was a beast born in this place and wasn't afraid of high temperatures, it was still afraid of magma!
