Chapter 2667: 2667
Han Sen stared at the giant beast that had fallen into the sand . It looked a lot like a triceratops, but its body was silver and white, and a large pair of wings spread from its back . It was hard to say what race it belonged to .
It seemed badly injured, and grievous wounds covered its entire body . It was struggling to get to its feet . Blood poured from its mouth and body, dyeing the bottom of the sandy crater crimson . A small red lake was forming beneath the beast .
“A xenogeneic has fallen!” Li Keer rejoiced . She quickly raced toward the crater .
Han Sen followed behind her . Even though it was injured, he could feel the fierce presence exuded by the giant monster . It was deified class, that was for sure .
“Back off, guys!” Before they could even get close to that xenogeneic, a plume of sand rose near them . It took on the shape of a sand god; it was Li Keer’s father again .
Before Li Keer could answer, a sandstorm swept over them and sucked them in . Within a second, they were tossed far, far away .
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As they got back to their feet and watched from a distance, they saw countless sand dragons emerging from the ground . They looked like ancient, deadly creatures . They followed the sand god’s commands to go for the injured beast .
The beast roared angrily . It quickly stood up, and an endless silver light erupted into a wild storm that consumed the sky . It battered against the sand dragons that now surrounded it .
The ancient-looking dragons had been shaped from sand, and they couldn’t withstand the power of that silver light .
Pang!
The silver light then swept over to shine on the sand god’s body, blasting the shape of the sand god back into nothing, as well .
Han Sen watched with wide eyes . It was very fortunate that they had been pulled away from the creature . If they hadn’t, the creature’s remaining dregs of power would have been enough to destroy them .
Li Keer stared at the sight in terror . If her father hadn’t appeared in time to keep them from getting close to the giant beast, the creature would have killed them in a moment .
“Li Keer’s father can’t have gone down that easily, surely . ” As Han Sen pondered this, he saw the sea of sand swell and boil like a tumultuous sea . Fountains of sand sprayed everywhere, and a pillar of sand shot straight up into the sky, then fell back to the ground, forming itself into the figure of a sand god . That process then repeated itself over and over, creating an army of the sand beings .
The sand gods raged as the remaining dragons roared . The surface of the desert had become a battlefield for ruthless giants . Despite the distance between them and the battlefield, the ground was shaking so violently that Han Sen and Li Keer were having difficulty staying on their feet . They had no choice but to retreat .
They finally reached a safe distance from the fight, but Han Sen could still detect that frightening presence . He could no longer see the actual fight, though . He could only see the distant clouds of sand as some of the sand creatures were ripped apart . His ears reverberated with the sound of dragons roaring at deafening volumes .
“My father’s real body is deep inside the Three World Desert . These sand gods are just manifestations of his power,” Li Keer explained with a laugh . She could sense that Han Sen was worrying about the safety of her father, but she knew he would be safe since he was deep within the sand .
Han Sen couldn’t see what was going on in the fight anymore . That whole desert was shrouded in screens of sand . After a very sad scream, the scary rumblings in the desert came to an end . And then, all the dust settled . A sand god appeared on the horizon and came toward them, telling them they could proceed .

“Father, you killed the xenogeneic? What was its level? Why was it injured and still so scary?” Li Keer curiously asked the sand god .
“I don’t know . It was dragged into the anti-material world,” the sand god answered . Then, it disappeared .
Li Keer wished to ask something more, but he was already gone . So, she resumed her journey across the desert with Han Sen .
The massive battle had changed the sandy landscape . Many of the weird buildings and items had been revealed from beneath the sands that once buried them . And the buildings and battleships that had once been there were now gone . Han Sen didn’t know if they had been destroyed, or buried deep beneath the sands of the desert, or what .
Han Sen looked around . When they reached the location where the giant beast had fallen, a large section of the desert was dyed red . But they couldn’t see the body of the giant beast anymore .
“It is a shame that the beast was sucked into the anti-material world . Despite its injuries, it was able to do battle with my dad for so long . It must have been a larva class deified xenogeneic, at the very least . ” Li Keer looked at the red sand regretfully .
Han Sen felt that it was a shame, too . If he had been able to stab the creature once, he might have been able to nab a beast soul . That xenogeneic was so strong, and its beast soul might have been equally powerful .
Han Sen kept walking, looking around as he went . Then, suddenly, he froze . Some distance away in the desert, Han Sen saw a tower that was built from stone .
That old tower was leaning visibly, and it looked as if it might fall over any second . Han Sen looked at the stone tower’s plaque . Written there were the two words, “Destiny’s Tower . ”

The tower was styled just like the Destiny’s Tower controlled by the Extreme King .
Han Sen was stunned at the sight, but he immediately clamped down on his thoughts . He wasn’t going to let out any memories associated with this tower . He had to suppress everything he knew about Destiny’s Tower .
Li Keer could feel that Han Sen’s mind was struggling with something . She looked at the stone tower, too . After a while of looking at it, she said, “I’ve never seen that stone tower before . It must have been revealed by the battle earlier . Do you recognize it?”
“It is exactly the same stone tower I saw when I was with the Extreme King . ” Han Sen knew he couldn’t hide this from Li Keer completely, and so he had to explain it a bit .
Li Keer thought for another moment . She nodded and said, “Now that you mention it, I think I remember something like that . When I visited the Extreme King, I once saw a tower like this, too . ”
“Let’s go . We should check it out,” Li Keer suggested, and so they went toward it .
She wasn’t interested in the tower, but she could feel Han Sen doing his best to suppress the desire to visit the place . Han Sen was trying to keep his thoughts away from the nature of Destiny’s Tower so Li Keer wouldn’t be able to see everything he knew about the structures . But that sort of control on his mind suggested to Li Keer that Destiny’s Tower had some relevance to Han Sen . If it didn’t, Han Sen wouldn’t have tried so hard to control his thoughts about the place .
“Being watched sucks . ” Han Sen sighed and followed Li Keer toward Destiny’s Tower .
The tower looked very old, and it was impossible to tell how many years it had been there . While the structure might have been old, it wasn’t broken . Li Keer reached the door and twisted the handle . The stone door swung open smoothly .

The two of them walked inside . The tower was full of dust and sand, but otherwise, it seemed to be empty . It looked like an ordinary watchtower .
“Let’s go up and see . ” Li Keer walked toward the stairs .
Han Sen followed Li Keer, trying to keep a lid firmly over any sensitive topics that might otherwise come to mind .
The second floor was still so empty . There was nothing there . Li Keer didn’t give up, though . She kept ascending the tower . The whole tower seemed to be empty until they approached the seventh floor .
“Huh? There is someone here . ” Li Keer looked at the top floor’s stone platform in shock .
