Chapter 37: Desert Rush

After Pan Long left Suishan County, he did not follow the main road, but quickly rode into the mountain.

He had to avoid people's eyes and ears when he was going to do it next, although it was okay to lock the doors and windows in the inn, but it was naturally best to find a place where no one was.

It took him a few hours to find a cave in the mountains. It's not big, and the effect of sheltering from the wind and rain is only average. But Sheng is clean inside, full of stones, and there are no traces of wild beasts and snakes and insects, which can be said to be very suitable for him.

Tethered to a stone outside, he sat down inside the cave and closed his eyes.

The light flashed, and the scene in front of him had turned into a white void.

"Thanks to the blessing of the Immortal Peach Tree, the aura has been accumulated sufficiently, and it is time to open the illusory world again. Pan Long muttered to himself, "It's just...... This time the world will be different from the past. ”

He didn't rush to open the starry sky that contained countless worlds, but sat in the pale void and thought.

"When I open the illusory world, I can get nothing more than three things, one is the treasures of that world, one is the character panel of the game world, and the other is the benefits that I can get directly from a certain world, such as taking an elixir and receiving blessings. ”

Of the three benefits, the first is the most restrictive. Rare treasures are not easy to obtain, not to mention that after obtaining them, they have to consume spiritual energy to manifest them. Reiki is about how long I can move in that world, and the longer I act, the more benefits I may reap...... So unless there is a special need, or a treasure like a panacea can be found in that world, this category is not worth pursuing. ”

"The second benefit is the most stable, as long as you find a game world to enter and identify the origin of this world, you can get a set of skills that can be improved. But honestly, I've had enough of it. Whether it's near or far, or even stealth assassination, you can cast one or two, and even spells are available. Except for the means of medical divination and astrology, I really don't need anything else. As for medical divination and astrology, I always feel that there is no urgent need. ”

"The third benefit is the tradition of our Pan family, most of the ancestors of the past generations directly visualized a medicine garden, went in to eat all kinds of rare elixirs as food, and ate until the body could hardly stand it, only to pick a batch back, and then slowly digest it. This method is naturally the most stable. In particular, the time spent is short, and it can save a lot of aura and bring back a batch of elixirs, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. The Pan family was able to become a big clan in the north and also make a huge industry in the Central Plains, and the foundation is all here. ”

"And Daddy's approach is a change in the third type, he rarely picks up elixirs, but is keen to fight the enemy to the death in the illusory world. Accumulate valuable practical experience, promote the explosion of inspiration on the edge of life and death, and thus obtain a rapid growth rate. ”

"And I, what do I need most now?"

"Treasures, nothing special. ”

"Skills, occupations, and no special needs. ”

"Combat experience, elixir, to be honest, there is no special need. ”

"Since I have obtained the Nine Transformations Xuangong, all I need is to find the Earth Demon Tiangang and start refining myself repeatedly. There is no bottleneck in this kung fu, it is just a continuous accumulation. ”

He thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"There you have it! I can go to the illusory world and pick up the earth!"

"There is no shortage of earth and earth in the world of Kyushu, but it is really difficult to take care of it, to ensure its own safety, and to keep it as secret as possible. But if I go to the illusory world, no matter how dangerous it is, it's a big deal to be blown up and come back, anyway, the two storage treasures can be placed in the shortcut inventory, not afraid of being exploded...... There's no risk at all!"

"Okay!

He stood up, took a step forward, and stepped into the starry sky.

"Come to a world full of earth!" he cried out, "better be able to pick it up more easily!"

The sea of stars spun, and stars flew around, and then, several stars suddenly collided together, fused into a larger and huge star, and slammed into him.

As soon as his eyes darkened, Pan Long found himself in a desert.

There is yellow sand everywhere here, and the sand dunes are endless, and there is no edge in sight. The yellowish sky looks very unsettling, and even the sun is very big and hot.

"Uh...... What kind of world is this?" he wondered.

In the various works I have come into contact with in my previous life, desert scenes abound. Just seeing the desert, it's really impossible to judge.

But he wasn't worried about himself, he had a lot of food and water stored in the dimensional bag, as well as tents and blankets for camping. Unless he was unlucky enough to be trapped in the desert for three or five months, he didn't have to worry about dying of thirst and starvation like ordinary travelers.

In contrast, there are other risks that may exist in the desert, and they are more threatening to him.

Say...... Sandstorm.

Just as Pan Long was observing everywhere, a wind suddenly rose in the air. The wind wasn't strong at first, but it got stronger very quickly, and it didn't take long for it to become windy.

Pan Long frowned, the wind in the desert is very deadly!

The wind blows the floating sand, and the sand is overwhelming, which can not only make it difficult to orient people, but also bury people inside.

If you stand still in a strong wind like this, it may not take you half an hour to be buried alive in the sand.

"Thankfully, it wasn't the wind at night when I went to bed. He comforted himself, took a step, and began to run in the direction of the wind.

Running in the desert is not easy, your feet will constantly sink into the yellow sand, and the sand will continue to burrow into your shoes, which will not only consume a lot of physical strength, but also easily wear the soles of your feet.

If you want to run fast and easily in this environment, what you need is the light and spiritual kung fu of "stepping on the moon and leaving incense" and "phoenix dancing for nine days", rather than the ancestral running light skills of the Pan family like a wild boar charge.

Fortunately, Pan Long has a skill, which is very suitable for running in the desert.

[Xiaoqiang Galloping 5/5: Ignore the terrain and run with all your strength on any ground, even on the water. 】

So in the wind and sand, there was a young man's figure, running wildly in the direction of the wind.

Pan Long ran at an astonishing speed, even the BMW horse was completely incomparable, especially when he unfolded his cloak, with the help of the wind when running, and even faintly had the meaning of gliding, which further accelerated his speed.

There was a wild run, and by the time the mana was almost exhausted, the wind had already become much lighter, obviously out of the range of the gale.

"Good luck. He found a sand dune with a lot of cacti, and sat down next to the cactus—the sand here was firmer, and as he rested, he looked back on the road he had come, and could not help but feel a little afraid.

I didn't think it when I ran wildly just now, but now when I look back, I see that the sky and the earth are dark, and I don't know how much wind there is, and I don't know how much sand there is.

Thanks to his quick reaction, he began to run away as soon as he felt the wind increase, and he also lost his "Xiaoqiang Running" skill, which allowed him to run the fastest speed on countless terrains...... Otherwise, the speed of escape will not be able to keep up with the spread of wind and sand, and what awaits him will probably only be buried alive.

After resting for a while, seeing that the rest was almost complete and the wind was light, Pan Long stood up again, jumped to the top of the tallest cactus, and looked left and right.

His light skills are indeed not good, but this cactus is thicker than a human, and after cutting the weight with light skills, there is no problem standing on it.

As for the spikes...... Unless the Jianghu people want to make a temporary cameo as a thief, their boots are all hard-soled, and even the thistle terrestris may not be pierced, let alone a few thorns.

Pan Long looked left and right at the top of the cactus for a long time, and finally reluctantly judged that near the horizon, which could be to the west, there was a shadow that did not look like a sand dune.

He wasn't sure what it was, but anyway, as long as it wasn't sand.

In the middle of the desert, it's much safer to find a place where it's not sand than to stay overnight on the dunes.

Having chosen his target, he walked all the way to that side.

At this moment, he didn't use his skills, and he suddenly felt that every step under his feet was sinking softly, and it was quite difficult to exert his strength. Walking effortlessly is now exhausting.

Not to mention, after only a hundred steps, he had to stop and pour out the sand from his shoes, so as not to grind his feet.

Naturally, he couldn't walk fast like this, and after walking for a while, he felt that it was really not a way, so he simply lay down on the sand to rest, and after the magic recovered, he once again used the "Xiaoqiang Rush" skill and ran wildly all the way.

The cycle is not necessarily faster, but at least it is much easier.

When it was getting late, he finally arrived at the place—not a sand dune, but the remains of a city.

The city is also very vast, and from a distance, a huge sand dune is at least three to five miles in circumference, and it is conceivable that it was once relatively prosperous.

It's a pity that all the prosperity has become history, and now the city is full of ruins, not to mention, many buildings have been buried in the yellow sand, and even the entire city has almost become a sand dune, only some of the taller buildings are still outside.

Pan Long walked in and was surprised to find that most of the buildings were metal structures.

Whether it's the floor or the walls, the inside of the city, at first glance, seems to be full of metal.

"The world's metal production is a bit high...... "He muttered to himself, looking for a place to stay overnight in the city.

Seeing that the city was almost buried in sand, he didn't expect to find any useful resources, let alone meet the living. It's good luck to find a safe place to spend the night.

But he had only been gone for a while, and suddenly he was shocked in his heart, and a strong sense of crisis rose.

Pan Long didn't hesitate to pull out his legs and run, only a few steps away, when the place where he was standing before there was a bang, and I don't know what kind of metal the floor tore violently, and a huge crimson tentacle stretched out from below.

The tentacles were like magnifying the beard of an octopus that had magnified it many times, and it was covered with hideous patterns and messy scars. It obviously didn't have good intentions, and after missing the blow, it spun around in the air and whipped down hard at Pan Long.

Of course, Pan Long will not stand in place as a live target, on the contrary, he runs very fast.

In just a few minutes, he rushed out of the huge sand dune, which was probably the wreckage of the city, and came out into the desert.

Looking back, one after another huge crimson tentacles stretched out from the ground of the city's ruins, waving everywhere. Everywhere I went, the dilapidated buildings could not resist it at all, and they collapsed one after another, and the rumbling sound of metal collision was incessant.

It took a while for the tentacles to retract back into the ground, and the ruins of the city returned to calm, as if nothing had happened, and at first glance it seemed safe.

But Pan Long didn't dare to get any closer even if he was killed, he even turned around and walked away from the city despite the fact that it was getting dark.

This place is too dangerous, he doesn't want to be the supper of that monster who doesn't know if it's a giant octopus, or the farther away from it, the better!8)
