Chapter 770: Bypass
A dark purple black smoke shrouded the entire north of Shanyang City, and the sand and gravel could be vaguely seen rotating rapidly during the period.
"Can you get around?"
The old Zen master frowned slightly before replying:
"To the west is a large sandbar known as the Sea of Death, all of which have become Ghost Fox Ridge......"
These two places were once considered the two closest to the Terran nests, and no one ever came out of them alive.
"I want to go and see!" Zhao Yuanyu's voice was firm.
The old Zen master did not stop him, and he followed.
In addition to the stout trunks of a few poplar trees in the sandbar, there is a sea of yellow and dead sand, where the sun also becomes dim and weak......
Thousands of sand beasts are dormant beneath the sandy seabed, the sole masters of the Dead Sea, which was once an oasis of life 2,000 years ago.
It wasn't until Hades reached out to the oasis that the sand beasts began to eat a little bit of the poplar forest, which was once the ruler of the place.
"Do sand beasts even eat the bark of poplar trees?"
Zhao Yuanju found that the trunk of each poplar tree was bare.
"The sand beast only eats poplar leaves, and the bark is swallowed by the wind and sand, which is more terrifying than the sand beast in pure ......"
Wind and sand are not without nemesis.
As the only missing piece of the four magic weapons of Xuanji Pavilion, Zhao Yuanju had heard of that anecdote.
Back then, the old pavilion master had not come to the world, and the Xuanji Pavilion had never had any dealings with the royal family.
Zhao Xuanji set up a boat out of the West Sea to find the legendary overseas pure land.
After leaving the merman's bend, the boat encountered a storm, and after Dingfeng Xuantie successfully calmed the storm, he sank into the sea.
Zhao Xuanji never found the Dingfeng Xuantie who fell back into the West Sea throughout his life.
The lost Wind Fixing Iron has achieved a thousand years of peace in this sea.
Zhao Yuanju and the old Zen master landed on the trunk of a fallen poplar tree.
Before the two could stand still, the fine sand around the trunk suddenly began to flow, and the trunk began to collapse downward.
Seeing this, the old Zen master wanted to flee, but Zhao Yuanxuan grabbed the corner of the tattered robe on his body and said:
"Is it possible to catch a sand beast to get under the sand seabed?"
Only then did the old Zen master understand the true purpose of Zhao Yuanxuan's coming to the abyss - to catch a little demon beast.
Zhao Yuanju once got a small iron worm on a small island in the East China Sea, is this going to find a companion for the iron worm today?
The old Zen master thought of this and regretted that he had brought Zhao Yuanju here.
The trunk of the tree continued to fall, and the sea of sand had submerged to the chest of the old Zen master, and only the part above the neck of Zhao Yuanyu was exposed.
......
"I said, do you know what a sand beast looks like?"
Zhao Yuanxuan felt the slightest bad feeling from the old Zen master's eyes, and she shook her head a little innocently.
Underneath the sandbar is the staggered and well-developed root system of Populus euphratica, and the long corridors are carved out by the sand beasts between the roots.
There was a sound of rustling at the end of the passage, and the old Zen master gestured to Zhao Yuanju to slow down.
He couldn't bear to break the girl's interest, and didn't tell her the appearance of the sand beast, and the old Zen master couldn't imagine how Zhao Yuanyu would react when he saw the appearance of the sand beast.
The poplars, whose thick roots are stronger than the branches that lie on the ground, spread like blood vessels beneath the sandy seabed, and now they are the "beams" of the sand beasts, as devoid of water as the trunks of the trees exposed to landmarks, but they are extremely hard.
Zhao Yuanyu took down a poplar root that was just the right length and thickness.
"What do you do with it?"
"Xiao Jiang's stick is not very good, I think this is good. ”
The old Zen master took the trunk and looked at it carefully, and said with a smile:
"Good guy, this is a 10,000-year-old Poplar King!"
"Be careful!"
A big-bellied reptile with a terrifying face, wrapped in a viscous dark green liquid, crawled upside down towards the old Zen master, and eight long spiral arms waved around the old Zen master.
At this time, the old Zen master was like a big zongzi.
Because the old Zen master did not flee, the sand beast did not continue to lock its long arms, and began to spit out a green blister from its mouth.
The blisters grew larger until the old Zen master was completely enveloped.
The long arm lifted the blister and walked towards the end of the corridor, completely ignoring Zhao Yuanyu's existence.
The strange thing is that the old Zen master did not move from beginning to end, and was at the mercy of the sand beasts.
The corridor left behind the foul-smelling slime that flowed from the sand beasts.
At the end of the tunnel is a lair of the Sand Beasts.
The four small sand beasts in the lair crawled excitedly on the old Zen master, but they couldn't speak.
The two adult sand beasts spotted the uninvited visitor and waved their long arms to attack Zhao Yuanyu.
At this time, the old Zen master who had never been moving in the nest suddenly stretched out his palm, and a large handprint glowing with golden light struck towards one of the sand beasts.
The golden handprint was hugged by the sand beast's arms, and the sand beast was excited.
The old Zen master folded his palms and recited a mantra, and the golden handprint instantly became larger, and the two sand beasts turned into two clusters of fine sand.
"Quick, the nearby sand beasts will be here soon. ”
Zhao Yuanju climbed into the nest with his hands and feet, and reached out to grab a small sand beast.
The little sand beast doesn't have a viscous liquid on it, but it's just not cute.
......
The little sand beast on the hill was very comfortable, and the little sand beast sleeping like mud did not realize that he was far away from his home.
"Is she still in the city?" Zhao Yuanju asked, glancing at the little sand beast sleeping in his sleeve.
"Without the order of the Hades, her nine daughters cannot leave the fiefdom, even if Dragon City is attacked by powerful forces......"
"Great!"
Zhao Yuanxuan rose with his sword and flew towards the dark purple black smoke.
The old Zen master's face was a little worried.
Zhao Yuanyu's current realm can't pass through that cloud of black smoke, let alone defeat the daughter of the Hades.
But what happened to Shanyang City?!
The old Zen master did not leave the hill, and sat cross-legged under a leeward cliff, waiting for Zhao Yuanyu to retreat in defeat.
......
Shanyang City was like a ghost town at this time, and there was no figure on the street, as if it was retreating in an orderly manner.
Zhao Yuanxuan knew that everything he saw in front of him was just an illusion on the surface.
The black smoke was also an illusion, there was no prohibition in existence, and she did not encounter the difficulties that the old Zen master had expected.
She went straight to the northeast corner of the city.
"It's coming!"
Hearing the footsteps, she slowly opened her eyes.
"Are you waiting for me?"
A pool of dried lotus leaves surprised Zhao Yuanyu a little, the daughter of the Hades King was more powerful than she imagined, and she knew far more about the human race than she knew about the disciples of the Abyss.
"I just wanted to see how powerful the person who wanted to kill me was, but I didn't expect you to be just a little girl...... I have to admit that I appreciate your ......"
The tone of the baby is very steady, as if she is in control of the overall situation, very confident.
She admired every Terran powerhouse who came to Shanyang City, even if it was a slave bought by Haonan, but he betrayed her.
The appearance of Zhao Yuanxuan largely calmed the anger in the heart of the daughter of the Hades.
At this time, her only worry was the old Zen master outside the city, and the last time she met him, she was not the owner of Shanyang City.
