Chapter 514 - 253: The Treasure Chest Monster Achieves Merit, The 2nd Daoguang Column Shoots to the Sky!_3
"Oh right, the treasure chest monster!" Xu Xin ran forward two steps and immediately remembered where it was discovered initially.
He quickly rotated his bracelet and released the treasure chest monster.
"Swallow the stone statue of the little boy ahead! Don’t harm him!" He commanded the treasure chest monster the moment it appeared.
The treasure chest monster immediately lifted its lid upon hearing the words, revealing a huge blood-red mouth!
Then, more than ten Blood Patterned Vines, much thicker than plant hearts, suddenly emerged from its massive mouth, numerous like a blooming green flower.
The vines quickly pierced forward!
It was Xu Xin’s first time seeing vines sprouting from the treasure chest monster’s mouth. These incredibly thick vines were much thicker and faster than any he had seen before!
Underestimated this guy indeed.
Mimi was there initially, and it couldn’t even open its lid, which is why it was easily subdued.
If it were truly allowed to open fully, the difficulty of subduing it would probably increase dozens of times!
This is probably the case of one thing conquering another.
Mimi has a strong restraining effect on it and can press down its lid before it spits out its vines.
The vines swiftly caught up with Xiaohong, binding his body just as he was about to reach the edge of the giant pit.
Xiaohong wasn’t pulled back because he was too strong.
But the treasure chest monster wasn’t just about pulling people.
It utilized this force, combined with the strength of the vines, to pull itself, flying rapidly towards Xiaohong with its massive mouth wide open!
Just as Xiaohong was about to jump into the giant pit, it flew over and flipped its entire box on him, clamping his entire stone body within that massive mouth!
Then, the vines inside pushed against the ground and lifted the box, flipping it over.
Xiaohong disappeared; he had been swallowed by the treasure chest monster.
The treasure chest monster swiftly retracted its vines, and its huge mouth even "smacked" shut twice as if someone had just finished eating and was licking their lips.
This entire series of actions occurred within mere seconds.
"So... so strong!" Li Wenxi exclaimed with wide eyes, "I... I thought this treasure chest monster was weak!"
She could view the entire scene of the treasure chest monster being tamed, only seeing it being hung and beaten by Xu Xin, Lou Fei’Er, and a bunch of contracted beasts.
Xu Xin hurriedly ran over, confirmed Xiaohong had indeed been devoured by the treasure chest monster, and sighed with slight relief.
For some reason, he felt he absolutely couldn’t let Xiaohong enter the giant pit like that.
Even if the one controlling him just now was actually Chang Yin and Xue Lan.
"Xu Xin, did you notice? The direction he was heading just now wasn’t directly towards the pit." Ji Chaoyang also came over beside him, looking into the pit, "If he simply wanted to enter the pit, he would definitely take the shortest path, going straight in, but he was walking diagonally. If he wasn’t, you might not have caught him in time, and he’d have already jumped in."
Xu Xin nodded slightly.
He also noticed Xiaohong wasn’t heading directly to the pit by the shortest distance.
Where did he want to go?
"There." Ji Chaoyang pointed to the ground of the pit, at that iron door they had excavated, which had been blasted into some blackness and had bits of stone powder on it, "He wanted to go straight into that iron door."
Xu Xin squinted slightly.
That’s right, Xiaohong’s direction was towards that iron door a bit far from where they were now!
Is something controlling him from within this iron door?
"Xu Xin..." Li Wenxi also approached, just about to speak when suddenly, on the eastern horizon, an anomaly was born!
A pillar of purple-black light shot up into the sky, reaching straight towards the heavens!
The thick clouds at ten thousand meters in the sky instantly scattered around the beam of light, creating a huge hole, making the sky look as if it had been punctured spectacularly.
It was Xu Xin’s first time watching the beam of light ascend from afar; the visual impact was even more direct up close because the entire beam of light could be seen!
Wen Guixin and the others succeeded!
The second light pillar has been activated!
