Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 119: Buried

The sand tsunami buried them all with its huge force. If soone saw the area from a sky view now, they could see part of the labyrinth had turned into a desert.

The creature looked where Alex and the group stood before, feeling satisfied with the result, but its eyes still flickered with anger.

Its head dived down again into the desert, creating a vibration in the area.

Then, from the desert, a huge tail ca out, swiping to the place where Alex was located before. Bang! It hit so hard that it cleaved the desert area into two, creating a deep chasm.

The tail then disappeared again, while part of its head ca out once more, the pale amber eyes glistening with satisfaction as they saw the deep chasm. It then disappeared back into the desert, restoring the area to its previous calm.

Deep underground, Alex felt pain all over his body, but this was not his concern now.

He was worried about Quartz and Olivia.

Emily still had his rune, so he knew she was safe. His eyes slowly opened, surveying the area around him.

He rembered when the sand hit, they all huddled together, feeling sothing heavy pushing against them. Quartz did her best to protect them under her shield, but she wasn't strong enough in the end.

The sand tsunami pressed down, engulfing them all while the sand scraped through their skin.

The experience was intensely painful, like millions of tiny daggers scrubbing over his skin.

Thankfully, they were prepared, so the mont Quartz could no longer hold on, they took out gas masks to protect their eyes and lungs from the painful experience.

This lasted for a few monts before calm finally returned. But just when Alex wanted to start crawling his way out of the sand, a strong force hit him from above, pushing them all deeper underground.

The force was so powerful that it pushed the sand along with them.

When he got pushed down, Alex felt relieved by the sand since it helped dampen the impact, but he still cursed it for being very painful.

The next thing he knew, he was free-falling into another space underground. And this ti, sohow, Alex hit the jackpot.

Despite the massive amount of sand pouring down on him, he fell face-first into solid ground, turning him into a pancake. If not for his absurd regeneration as a progenitor, he would have been dead for sure.

Alex stood up, looking around the area.

He found himself standing inside so ancient building with a style he had never seen before. It was a square building made from so kind of crystal.

The crystal was cut like bricks and then glued with so material he had never seen.

The building's roof was half flat and half slanted. Alex quickly thought the design was chosen to allow easy removal of sand gathered on the roof, while the other half was flat since they had a need to go up to the rooftop for a specific purpose.

His gaze then moved under the building, seeing many sands on the ground.

Looking up, he could see the ceiling where he ca from still pouring sand over the area.

He knew he needed to find a way to plug the hole; otherwise, they would get buried by the sand, and at the rate it was pouring, it would still take a while until they didn't have space to breathe.

Alex took out his hamr and many lumps of tal.

Like playing baseball, Alex used the hamr to hit the lump of tal through the crack. With his abilities, each throw accurately hit the target area.

If not, because of the situation, he would already scream "HoRun!" every ti he hit the iron while laughing.

Then, with calculated precision, Alex used his flathrower ability, lting the tal completely and sealing the crack.

With the biggest problem dealt with, Alex turned his gaze to the area that was buried by the sand. Alex chose to plug the hole first since he could already see the life force of his group from Vesa's map.

He then sent out Petricia and Zargath.

The trio started using a shovel and digging through the sand.

The first one found was Olivia; her situation was not that bad. As a healer, she could recover her body while it was being wounded, allowing her to survive almost unscathed.

The next one was Emily, who also had the healing rune from Alex, so there were no problems with her.

The last ones were Quartz and Zold. They took the most damage since they had no healing ability. Both of them were unconscious when they were rescued.

Zold's limb was mangled in a weird way, while all the bones in his body were broken.

Quartz was worse; the hand that held her shield was squashed like a pancake all the way to her elbow. Their skin was scraped to the point many parts of their flesh were exposed.

The only silver lining Alex could find was that they were still alive.

They then took a break in the place where Alex fell.

Since the others could not see well in the dark, Alex took out a portable light, put it on the flat area of the ceiling, and then made two camps, putting Quartz and Zold inside.

While Olivia was busy healing them, Alex took a break with Emily. At the sa ti, he ordered Petricia and Zargath to clean up the sand from the area.

"I never heard any report of an ancient city found in a dungeon; I wonder what kind of species lived here before."

Alex raised his eyebrow, hearing Emily's comnt.

He thought she would complain and be saddened by Quartz and Zold's situation, but instead, she tried to change the topic and look at their situation.

"It seems living as a hunter has its own rits," Alex replied with a chuckle.

He wasn't that worried about Quartz and Zold; with Olivia's healing ability, he knew they would return to peak condition in no ti.
