Chapter 258: Chapter 258

The eastern horizon had already begun to brighten, indicating the imminent arrival of dawn. It was the darkest and coldest time of the day, and also the time when living beings were at their most fatigued.

Just at this moment, the sky knights, who had long been prepared, took advantage of the pre-dawn darkness and soared into the sky.

"Have we confirmed the location, are we certain about it?"

"There’s absolutely no mistake. The strongest group of Quicksand soldiers is on the highest peak. As long as we block the exit, they won’t be able to support others or escape."

The sky knights moved swiftly, and in just a moment, they arrived above the highest peak. This was the highest peak in the mine, not the highest one nearby. The Sandpeople had no interest in climbing that high.

The attack began, Du You, who had been resting, opened his eyes. Fluctuations came from the distance. Light dazzled, and only after a while could he hear the sound coming from there - the momentum was truly grand.

Perhaps it wasn’t as loud as what he himself had caused, but the power fluctuations contained within were even more powerful.

Du You keenly felt that he would not be able to assist in the battle over there. If he got too close, it could be potentially fatal.

The only third-tier being, along with several second-tier experts, were all battling in that place. The remaining Sandpeople, with not many of the second-tier ones, posed little threat to him.

"Prepare for battle, follow me. Later on, you guys form your own teams to cause devastation. I won’t be giving commands, and you don’t need to worry about me."

Was Du You unable to command? Actually, he had a bit of command skills, but he never intended to lead. It was better for him to act on his own than to command a group of people who were far less powerful than him, thus exerting more power.

No one else said anything. A young man drew his long sword, chanting a spell.

This was a unique individual in their team, a warrior sorcerer.

With the completion of the spell chanting, the young soldier’s long sword caught fire, resembling a big torch. Fire elements gathered on the long sword, increasing the power of the weapon.

There was no Dou Qi, but magic could create a more powerful force of destruction. At the same time, a layer of wind wrapped around the young soldier, under the power of the Wind Element, his speed became significantly faster.

Originally just a Level 6 soldier, he now was no less powerful than a typical Level 7 soldier.

Who would have thought there was a genius in his team? Du You marveled, and in less than two minutes, they had burst into the interior of Dayun Iron Mine. Only then did the people inside start to panic upon hearing the commotion.

Precisely. These people provided Du You with a perfect target for attack. Without hesitation, Du You swung out two Holy Light Arrow Sword Arrays. Almost simultaneously, 160 arrows fell from the sky, triggering a chorus of screams.

In an instant, the location where the Sandpeople had gathered suffered heavy casualties. "As I said, I prefer not to be on a team with others."

Du You murmured. If it was his usual self, he would have thrown several Mucus Swamp spells, lit them on fire, and cleared the area. That would have used less magic power and caused more damage. It was such a good rhythm.

Unfortunately, he was now with others and that was not possible. He was immune to his own toxins, and while the Sandpeople had high poison resistance, the ordinary soldiers did not.

Seeing Du You display his prowess, the caution of the others vanished. They were no match for a large number of Sandpeople, but a small number? That was not a problem at all.

So, the group charged in with loud cries. The frightened Sandpeople couldn’t organize a counterattack for a while, with even the Quicksand soldiers standing dumbfounded in place, unable to use their special powers.

As a result, these unfortunate fellows were the first targets of the attack.

"Take care to protect the supplies here, all of these belong to us," exclaimed Du You while simultaneously casting a Fire Snake Curse. A nearby Level 10 Quicksand soldier, who hadn’t even had a chance to launch a sneak attack, was entangled by the Fire Snake Curse.

Eight fire snakes coiled tightly around him and then exploded. Even the Quicksand soldier’s sand defense layer couldn’t protect him, resulting in severe injuries immediately. Without hesitation, a Disintegration Spell from Du You completely annihilated him.

Ignoring the chaos behind him, Du You spotted a larger gathering up front. So, without any hesitation, he abandoned his teammates and ran forward alone.

Before even reaching the place, Du You cast a full-force Holy Light Arrow Array, a rain of light arrows falling from the sky. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✶𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲✶𝗻𝗲𝘁

However, just then, a passionate cry rang out from the team, followed by a large amount of quicksand shooting into the air. It curled upwards, instantly wiping out more than half of his 640 arrows.

Among the screams, Du You squinted his eyes. This was the technique of a Quicksand Priest.

"It’s indeed an operation the Sandpeople have been planning for a long time, they even have a Quicksand Priest."

Without hesitation, Du You waved his hand. The Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs and Xiaozi appeared simultaneously, the Cursed Crow King’s Curse Aura deployed.

Finally, a scorpion composed of sand also appeared, it was the Death Scorpion.

With the appearance of the Death Scorpion, countless crevices opened up on the ground centered around the Death Scorpion. The ground rocks turned into rock pieces, rock pieces shattered into pebbles, pebbles eventually turned into sand, and sand became fine sand.

Under the Domain of Desert, the surrounding environment instantly evolved towards the desert.

A gust of wind blew, countless quicksands were whirled up into the sky, and then the storm sounded. A desert storm appeared under the control of the Death Scorpion. Now being a pet, the desert storm would not harm or obstruct the vision of Du You or his pets.

However, this vast amount of sand was still troublesome. The two birds could only fly high to avoid being covered in sand and unable to take flight. Du You had specifically created a pair of glasses to protect his eyes.

As for the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, they were unphased by such environments. After all, they were undead.

The range of the desert storm kept growing, and the surrounding sand was constantly increasing. The Death Scorpion slowly submerged underground and disappeared. The Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, on the other hand, fully deployed their Exhaustion ability and strode forward.

Upon seeing the transformation over here, the Quicksand Priest’s eyes changed: "It’s the Death Scorpion. Which priest is over there? Why are they attacking us?" The Quicksand Priest shouted loudly.

Before he could finish, several Thunder Light Orbs rained down from the sky.

The unfortunate Quicksand Priest desperately cast spells to protect himself but to no avail. He was electrocuted painfully. Suddenly, a huge pincer emerged from the ground, splitting the Quicksand Priest in half.
