Thereupon, the worm darted toward a certain direction within the city, shooting forward with great speed.
The Straw-Coated Wanderer's spirit shook, and in an instant, his figure flashed as he followed it.
Soon, the Consciousness Worm, flapping its wings, arrived at a large pit where Chen Yuan was last seen disappearing. The surrounding area was nearly razed to the ground, with rolling sands and a swath of charred earth.
The worm burrowed straight into the pit, tunneling into some muddy sand below.
In no time, the Consciousness Worm unearthed a palm-sized, shattered piece of cloth from the vast sands.
The Straw-Coated Wanderer's spirits lifted. He picked it up and squinted at it.
It was Array Patterns!
This meant, the Ninth Mountain's Colonel might truly not be dead.
But even if he wasn't dead, with a shattered Dharma Image, he must have been seriously injured.
This was the outcome he had hoped for.
So, where would this injured tiger go?
