Chapter 820: Chapter 358: Difficulty
In the dueling arena.
The ground was covered with a yellow earth attribute aura, making the already heavy earth even more indestructible.
Nevertheless, the Nine Nether Cold Sand falling on the ground was only a layer of illusion, yet its manifested weight was real, making the entire earth seem to sink.
"Did the ground sink a bit?"
Although Xu Ran’s gaze was not on the ground, the subtle change made him notice this point.
"Is it caused by this sand?" Xu Ran speculated.
Ever since these white sands fell onto the ground like a waterfall, Xu Ran keenly felt that the ground had sunk a bit.
Although the extent was extremely small, it was extremely important to Xu Ran.
This means that these white sands do not appear to be so simple.
Then, Xu Ran waved his large hand, and a strand of golden aura slowly floated out from his body, not lingering around him but instead directly floating towards the Houtu Tripod.
The thread-like golden aura seemed like a hunting hunter, silently, unnoticed by the earth attribute.
"Whiz!"
A sound appeared in Xu Ran’s mind, and the golden aura shot out like golden lightning, then quickly returned to Xu Ran’s hand.
"One grain of sand weighs 500 pounds!"
The task of the golden aura that just appeared on Xu Ran’s body was to bring back one of the continuously pouring white sands to see what was so unique about this sand.
Unexpectedly, one grain of sand actually weighed 500 pounds, which he hadn’t anticipated.
"Hiss!"
Xu Ran felt a slight pain when holding the white sand in his hand, and when he opened his palm to look, the defense of the Great Success [Innate Saint’s Sacred Body] had been breached.
The breaching position was where he was holding the sand.
"This sand is actually sharp?!"
Feeling the peculiarity of the white sand, Xu Ran cried out in surprise.
This white sand is not only extremely heavy but also extremely sharp, making Xu Ran take it seriously.
If one grain of sand can break the defense of his Great Success [Innate Saint’s Sacred Body], what about the large quantity of pouring white sand?
How much of the pouring white sand is there?
Millions maybe!
If enormous weight, even though he possesses the Great Success [Innate Saint’s Sacred Body], he would be directly crushed into pulp!
Xu Ran felt it again and continued to speak.
"Not only is the weight and sharpness beyond imagination, but this grain of sand even has a freezing effect that can freeze one’s thoughts!"
A surprised expression appeared on Xu Ran’s face again; such sand has so many functions?!
At this point, he must take it seriously!
"Since this sand has such terrifying special effects, then avoid it!"
Xu Ran’s eyes glowed with golden light, watching the Earth Attribute Puppet while contemplating a countermeasure.
"Capture the leader to capture the thief first!"
Once the strategy was decided, he took immediate action!
Without waiting for the Earth Attribute Puppet to make any moves, Xu Ran’s feet stamped on the ground, and instantly a golden lightning appeared in the air, striking towards the Earth Attribute Puppet.
"Bang!"
Xu Ran moved so fast that he caused the air to burst, and the entire dueling arena emitted bursts of sonic booms.
Xu Ran suddenly vanished before his eyes, and the Earth Attribute Puppet immediately adopted a corresponding response.
It clasped a gesture with both hands, and the Nine Nether Cold Sand constantly pouring from the Houtu Tripod was controlled and flew towards it.
Where the Nine Nether Cold Sand passed, frost appeared, and the air was distorted by its enormous weight.
Instantly, the Nine Nether Cold Sand arrived in front of the Earth Attribute Puppet, forming a white wall completely blocking Xu Ran’s incoming direction!
Seeing this, Xu Ran’s speed did not decrease, but rather he was eager to try.
"Then let me try and see what’s so special about this sand!"
Having said that, Xu Ran, like golden lightning in mid-air, his arms instantly swelled, and streams of golden aura whistled out from his body, surrounding his arms completely.
Just like before, Xu Ran mobilized the full power of the Great Success [Innate Saint’s Sacred Body] to his fists.
Previously, the single grain of Nine Nether Cold Sand could breach Xu Ran’s defense because he hadn’t specially defended; who would make a big move against a single grain of sand?
The defense was breached by carelessness.
But now, Xu Ran decided to use his fists to collide with the massive amount of white sand, attaching all the power of the Great Success [Innate Saint’s Sacred Body] to his fists, ensuring these sands cannot breach his defense.
"Boom!"
In the blink of an eye.
Xu Ran’s swollen fists had already collided with the wall composed of Nine Nether Cold Sand, erupting into a huge roar.
At the moment of collision between the two, the wall made of Nine Nether Cold Sand scattered a grain of white sand due to the strong impact.
As these sands drifted in the air, they exploded sharply, turning into pervasive frost scattered in the air.
"Whiz!"
Seeing this, Xu Ran withdrew his fists, stepping back through the air.
After stabilizing himself, Xu Ran shook his fists and said.
"This white sand is indeed hard!"
Looking at the wall made of Nine Nether Cold Sand, except for the few grains of sand that initially scattered and exploded in the air, it suffered no damage.
Meanwhile, Xu Ran’s fists were completely red, and the golden spiritual qi that had continuously clung to the surface of his body was nowhere to be seen at the fist positions.
