Section 82 Endless Sea of Sand
Flying over a hill not far away, a sharp sword composed of black mist came out of Shen Tong's body, and after a clear sound, it flew straight towards the place where the ugly Taoist priest disappeared. Compared to Shen Tong's speed, the black sword was really much faster, and almost as soon as it appeared in front of him, it disappeared at the end of the hill in the distance, making it impossible for people to catch the traces of action. And Shen Tong is naturally self-aware, compared to the speed of the Ugly Daoist and the Xuan, his actions are really like a snail, let alone catching up, I am afraid that he can't even see their shadows.
The thought that the ninth layer of Qi cultivation would be able to learn those techniques that were used on him, Shen Tong's heart was on fire. After a series of accidents, he realized the importance of speed, compared to the sharpness and strength of the spell, his own speed is the most important means of life-saving, only in terms of speed advantage, there is a chance to escape and the grasp of destroying the enemy. Otherwise, it would be like the ugly Taoist priest in front of him, although Shen Tong thought that his strength did not seem to be worse than him, but after the other party saw that the opportunity was wrong, he would run away, and he would only cry out in vain!
"This senior brother, did you let the ugly Taoist run away?" Behind Shen Tong, a slightly green voice came from this time, and he looked a little out of breath and exhausted.
Shen Tongxin turned his head and saw the young man who looked a little embarrassed at the moment, with a few strands of broken hair sticking to his young face at the moment, his face was blue and white for a while, and the tattered appearance of the monk's robe on his body was really a little miserable. However, even so, this young monk actually dared to grit his teeth and chase after him, which made Shen Tong a little surprised, and he couldn't help but have a good impression of this young man in his heart.
Speaking of which, Shen Tong really didn't have a good impression of the monks in the spirit realm.
When she first arrived in the spirit world, the fifth aunt and her two sons relied on the advantage of cultivation to forcibly occupy the small courtyard of Li Ping's family, and even bullied the weak, and actually carried out a spell attack on a person who could be called powerless, almost killing him. As for the patriarch who rescued him, he also secretly deducted his Lingshi for many years, and it wasn't until he was accepted as a registered brother by that cheap master that he didn't know that there was such a return. Later, when he came to Luofeng Town, he was almost devoured by the ghost thing attracted by the ugly Taoist, which is really sinister and difficult. I didn't expect that this young monk was in such a bad situation at the moment, and he actually rushed to come, he was really much stronger than others, and he also seemed more righteous, which was the first time he had seen it among the monks Shen Tong had encountered.
Even if Shen Tong didn't really want him to come at this time, but the matter had come to this point, it was obviously inconvenient to say more.
"Lu Daoyou, in Xia Li Ping, was born in the Li family in Dingyuan City. Shen Tong bowed his hand, and then said with a flat expression.
"It turns out that Senior Brother Li is a disciple of the Li family in Dingyuan, no wonder the Taoist is profound, and he can repel the ugly Taoist, this time thanks to the life-saving grace of the senior brother, the great grace is not grateful, and the life of the younger brother will be Senior Brother Li's in the future. Lu Jing hurriedly bowed and returned the salute, and said with emotion for a while.
Shen Tong smiled and said: "Speaking of which, he is a few years older than Lu Daoyou, so he will be cheeky to take on the title of senior brother." This time I just passed by here, and I did it easily, I really didn't dare to take credit, besides, my Li family is the family to which Tianxing Valley belongs, and it can be regarded as a family. Talking about saving each other, I'm afraid it's too raw. β
Lu Jing's face turned red and then said: "What the senior brother said is true, but how dare you forget the grace of saving your life, and the junior brother must remember it in his heart and dare not forget it." After speaking, he seemed to be afraid that Shen Tong would say this matter again, so he couldn't help but hurriedly ask, "By the way, Senior Brother Li, where did that ugly Taoist priest flee?"
Shen Tong pointed to the north and said, "I went to the sea of sand, I couldn't catch up, so I could only watch him escape." β
Lu Jing said: "Brother Li should be a cultivator of the eighth layer of the Qi training period like me, right? That ugly Taoist priest is a monk at the peak of the twelfth layer of the Qi training period, and it seems that he can be ready to attack the foundation at any time, during this time, he haunts the sand sea near Nansha City, on the one hand, it is to kill demons and take pills, and on the other hand, it is to take the opportunity to rob the children of our Tianxing Valley. β
Shen Tong couldn't help asking, "So, Senior Brother Lu seems to be unlucky and was targeted by this ugly Taoist priest?"
Lu Jing shook his head helplessly and said: "Senior Brother Li doesn't know, the junior brother was assigned by the sect to go to the sand sea to investigate the movements of the sand beasts, and he had already completed the task, but he didn't want to run into this guy, if he didn't happen to meet the senior brother, I am afraid that his life would be in danger." In fact, the life of the younger brother is really a trivial matter, if he misses the task of the sect, it is the real trouble. β
Shen Tong couldn't help but be a little speechless, in fact, before, he wanted to avoid the battle here, and wanted to take a detour to go directly to Tianxing Valley, if it weren't for Youxuan's insistence on coming, he was afraid that he wouldn't have the heart to meddle at all, and now this young monk was a big life-saving grace, which really made him a little unbearable. Speaking of which, he was not used to the ruthless indifference of the spiritual realm monks, in fact, he seemed to be the same at the moment, so what qualifications did he have to talk about others?
I don't know what happened to the old ghost of Youxuan, and I don't know if it caught up with that ugly Taoist priest.
Seeing that Shen Tong was silent, looking preoccupied, Lu Jing on the side couldn't help asking, "Senior Brother Li, what's wrong?"
Shen Tong immediately shook his head and said, "No, it's just that when I heard you talk about the movement of exploring the sand sea, I couldn't help but think of the incident when the sand ghost attacked Nansha City decades ago, and I was a little distracted for a while." β
Lu Jing immediately said: "Yes, over the years, the sand sea has not been calm, this mission to explore the sand sea is also a few times almost lost his life, now the sand sea is far more severe than usual, may not be far from the next sand beast riot siege city." β
"Sand beasts attacking the city?" Shen Tong muttered a little.
Lu Jing faced Shen Tong, the life-saving benefactor, at this time, he naturally spoke without reservation, and even more because Shen Tong was born in the Li family, just like he said, he was really a family. In this way, Lu Jing did not have any scruples when he spoke, and immediately said: "In this endless sea of sand, there is a vast and boundless place, and the sand beasts are vertical and horizontal, and people are inaccessible. It is rumored that our West Pole Continent is just a remote corner of this vast world, but the reason why no one can know what the situation is in the outside world is because this endless sea of sand has trapped us here, and there is no chance to get out at all. β
Shen Tong couldn't help but ask in his heart: "Besides the West Pole Continent, are there other continents?"
Lu Jing smiled shyly and said: "Senior Brother Li, this matter is just hearsay, I really don't know much, but this endless sand sea is indeed endless, not to mention us Qi cultivation period monks, it is rumored that when the ancestor of this sect formed a divine child, he also personally explored the depths of the endless sand sea, but after a few years, he was injured and returned, and from that time on, it is rumored that in the endless sand sea, there are also sand beasts equivalent to the divine infancy stage, and the mana is boundless, and it is not at all the enemy of human power." β
Shen Tong thought of the situation when he had been penetrated by the mysterious and almost sucked dry, and thought of the strong skills of cultivation in the foundation building period, so he could imagine how earth-shattering the cultivation of the Divine Infant Stage cultivator should be. It's just that, with their earth-shattering cultivation, they haven't explored the sea of sand in front of them, so they can also see the horror of this. Thinking that Li Ping's father Li Xian fell into the hands of the sand beast back then, his heart was a little gloomy.
At this time, it seems that it is really much more dangerous than the human world, and the more advanced the cultivator, the stronger the opponent will be.
Lu Jing on the side said to himself: " The sand grains in the endless sand sea are exposed to sunlight all year round, which also contains a trace of spiritual power, and the sand beasts living in the sand sea feed on the sand, constantly prosperous and powerful, plus there are no natural enemies in the sand sea, so the number continues to increase at an alarming rate, so that every hundred years or so, after the number of sand beasts in the sand sea reaches a certain scale, they will expand in all directions, in order to occupy more territory, and Nansha City and other places close to the sand sea will naturally become a frontier battlefield and be devastatedγ β
Hearing him say this, Shen Tong couldn't help but move in his heart.
