Start With Contracting Sprites

Somewhere in the mountain range.

Underground, in the empty space dug out by an earth-element sprite…

Whoosh—

Ripples appeared in the surrounding space.

A Sand Earthworm dozens of meters long suddenly appeared, its body still carrying water stains and thunder arcs. The hard yellow-brown armor was already badly damaged at this point, falling apart like pieces of huge rocks. With a bang, it turned into the purest elemental particles and dissipated in the world.

It was covered in wounds, no longer as fierce and domineering as it was a few minutes ago.

It wanted to roar in grievance, but it was suddenly glared at by Dark Society Heavenly King. "Shut up, be quiet and heal properly!"

The Heavenly King of the Dark Society took out high-level healing potions. Among them, there was no lack of special supplementary versions produced by the Green Shade Group specially for the experts of the Union.

The effect was extremely strong. Countless light particles sprayed out and attached to the Sand Earthworm Dragon's body. In just a while, the Earthworm Dragon's injured body healed by a large margin.

A strange looking Snake-Headed Demon held a solidified staff and sprinkled sparkling yellow light.

The effects of the two overlapped.

The Sand Earthworm Dragon's dispirited aura also improved a little.

If it were an extraordinary-level sprite, even if it was on the verge of death, under such treatment conditions, it could instantly become lively.

Monarch rank life force was too strong, so it was naturally difficult for them to recover.

Seeing that the Sand Earthworm Dragon's aura gradually calmed down and no longer overflowed with energy due to injuries, the Dark Society Heavenly King finally heaved a sigh of relief.

But his expression was still as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"I actually lost to a young brat. Ridiculous!

"If not for the fact that my Gargoyle Dragon was killed by the Union a year ago, how would I have ended up in this state today! Damn it!"

The more the Dark Society Heavenly King thought about it, the angrier he became.

He had already deeply remembered Su Hao's appearance.

"When we return, I must mobilize all my energy to find out your identity. This matter isn't over. You will pay for provoking a Dark Society Heavenly King…"

Boom!

The entire underground space shook violently, shaking as countless gravel fell.

The Heavenly King of the Dark Society could sense a terrifying energy crashing down from above.

His expression changed.

Earth yellow energy curled around the Sand Earthworm Dragon and it swept the Dark Society Heavenly King and the extraordinary Snake-Headed Demon onto its body, enveloping them in a yellow halo.

Then, it suddenly burrowed into the ground.

Boom!

The top of the underground space cracked, and a stream of black smoke emerged from the crack. In the next moment, the whole space collapsed completely. One could vaguely see a huge Shadow Energy Ball with an unknown diameter smashing down from above.

It exploded.

BOOM—

Violent air waves spread out in circles, sending countless trees and rocks flying, leaving behind a huge pit.

There was residual aura, but no trace of the Sand Earthworm Dragon.

"As expected, it escaped again."

On the cloud, Su Hao frowned, feeling that the situation was a little tricky.

Without it…

The Sand Earthworm escaped from the ground. Its speed might not be very fast, but being dozens of meters deep in the ground was enough for it to be safe from many attacks.

And it was impossible for Su Hao to constantly lock onto Heavenly King of the Dark Society.

…

"As expected, I still have to take action at the critical moment!"

When Black and White Heavenly King thought of this, he actually felt a little excited.

He looked down at the direction of the high-level officer of the Dark Society with some admiration. "Thank you for your hard work in escaping so that I don't have to be a bystander…"

As he thought about it, he didn't stop.

After executing several Sprite Commandeering techniques, the figure of the Dark Star Spirit on the right gradually became illusionary.

The first stage of the Dark Star Spirit's evolution was its spirit body. Therefore, it was not difficult for it to transform from a physical body to an incorporeal spirit.

And its incorporeal body was able to pass through the ground.

With his Dark Star Spirit's strength, it wouldn't be too hard for him to deal with an already injured monarch sprite.

"Go…???"

Before the Black and White Heavenly King finished speaking, he saw the young man standing on the clouds in the distance, seemingly sighing.

And then…

A black shadow appeared behind him, turned into a dark light, and shot underground.

Butterfly Fairy, who was standing beside the young man, flapped its butterfly wings slightly. With a bang, its entire body disappeared like a dream bubble. It seemed to have already gone underground.

Black and White Heavenly King: "???"

At the side, the Dark Star Spirit turned its head and asked with its eyes, "What do we do?"

The Black and White Heavenly King looked conflicted. "Let's wait a little longer. After all, the enemy is used to being underground, and he only has two sprites that can burrow into the ground. There's a high chance that this Union's genius is not their match. When the time comes…"

"Well, when the time comes, we'll appear in a cool manner and get rid of that Sand Earthworm Dragon with a gorgeous secret manual."

"Perfect!"

He thought.

At the side, the Dark Star Spirit stared at him for a while and sighed.

…

On the colorful cloud, as he watched Ah Yan fly down, Su Hao felt that his sense of security had decreased a lot.

"In order to arrest the Dark Society Heavenly King, I have truly sacrificed too much!"

Underground…

The Sand Earthworm Dragon, which was constantly moving, had its whole head explode again, as if it was hit by a huge hammer, buzzing.

The spiritual explosion wasn't as fierce as before.

But now, the Sand Earthworm Dragon was only at half health and its condition wasn't good.

It couldn't help but stiffen.

A black-robed figure appeared in front of it.

Its two palms stretched infinitely, and its pupils were like vortexes…

The Sand Earthworm Dragon felt that something was dragging it in.

It roared angrily, and the earthen yellow light shook.

With a bang, it shattered the inexplicable power enveloping its body.

But at this moment…

Butterfly, which had appeared at the tail of the Sand Earthworm Dragon, went all out.

Its emerald green long hair was raised in an anti-gravity manner. Its eyes were as bright as light, and the air around it was buzzing.

Its little face was focused and solemn as it pressed its hands down.

It was not a terrifying scene, nor was there any violent energy tide.

But on the Sand Earthworm Dragon, thin wounds suddenly appeared one after another.

The wounds kept spreading.

It roared in pain, and the yellow light became dazzling. As its tail swung, the surrounding space became sluggish.

Countless soil and rocks were shattered like tofu, directly whipped towards the sprite locked by the Sand Earthworm Dragon's aura.

Boom!

Butterfly disappeared like a bubble, but it didn't dare to get too close. It only moved far away, and invisible spiritual threads shot out from its body and wrapped around the Sand Earthworm Dragon.

Ah Yan flung its black robe.

One, two, ten…

Hundreds of ghost-element sprites suddenly appeared.

Like ghosts, they danced around the Yama Ghost King. Every ghost-element sprite was not strong, but their auras even resonated together.

Buzz…

Buzz—

Rings of dark light spread, and terrifying energy tides rose underground.

A person standing in the sky couldn't see through the ground.

But one could see that the whole area was shaking ceaselessly, as if the fiercest earthquake had erupted. Countless rocks rolled down, and muffled sounds came from time to time.

After a while…

Boom!!

Another huge hole was blasted in the pitiful ground.

Sand danced in the air. The Sand Earthworm Dragon's body was coiled at the edge of the hole. Its bronze bell-sized eyes looked into the distance, at the colorful clouds and the people on them.

At the same time, Su Hao saw the figure standing on the Sand Earthworm Dragon.

The figure had a medium build and was wearing expensive battle equipment. He was wearing a mask made of special materials.

It was a mask that kept its owner safe from special investigations.

This person was the Dark Society Heavenly King!
