Beneath the red dunes gathered dozens of beasts, large and small, voraciously consuming the sand.
He Yueji rubbed her eyes, confirming she had not seen wrong.
These beasts were indeed devouring the red sand!
However, unlike the previous beasts that would rather lose their lives than attack them, these creatures didn't exhibit much aggressiveness, their attention entirely captivated by the sand before them.
It was as if nothing else in the world could attract them more than the sand in their mouths.
Just as He Yueji wondered if their brains had gone bad, she saw a Young Flame Lizard that was feeding suddenly undergo a strange transformation.
A burst of flames shot out from its body, completely enveloping it, burning intensely for a full three minutes before extinguishing.
And, as expected, the unlucky Young Flame Lizard had turned into a charred black color.
But it did not die immediately; its pair of big eyes blinked with difficulty, and then it slowly extended its forelimbs.
