"Although the goal is certain, it is only a general direction, and the area bordering the continent is obviously not a point, or a road, but a vast area. So the distance of three thousand miles is enough for these people to disperse. Do we walk in the middle, or do we walk from the edge? Several people were on foot, although the formation was spread out, but the distance was not very far, Qin Liang lowered his voice and everyone in the team could hear it, but the people nearby could hear it a little vaguely.

"Walking on the edge can lead to your destination, but it will undoubtedly lengthen the journey and it is easy to get lost. And according to the information we have obtained, although the area bordering the opposite continent and the intermediate buffer zone is not small, there are many places that are dead lands, and we may not be able to get out if we rush in. Zhou Tong opened his mouth and said, Qi Wanru couldn't help but nodded.

"That being said, it is too dangerous to walk in the middle, and there are not only all kinds of dangers on the way known, but those of us who are now around us will certainly not let us have a good time. Is it possible to compromise, walk on the edge before reaching the opposite side, and try to get closer to the middle when you are about to arrive, and enter the opposite continent from the safe area. Feng Wuji expressed his opinion, this is undoubtedly a good choice.

"We don't have a lot of information on the edges, so who knows if there will be a death on the road. Moreover, the first time we went to the opposite side, we only knew a general direction, and we could not grasp the accuracy of the route ahead, and we might have dizzed ourselves around and died on the road without even seeing the edge of the opposite continent. Ma Jing shook his head, feeling that it was safer to walk according to the familiar plan.

Although in this way it will attract the prying eyes of other teams, and even the battle continues. However, because the route forward is relatively clear, there are even some extremely dangerous places that can be bypassed. As long as you can withstand the attacks of other teams, you will not only advance by taking this route, but also have a greater chance of going to the opposite side.

"Let's follow the original route first, even if the battle breaks out, there is no threat to us in a small fight, only go to the middle, and even more than half of the way, when the material consumption is too great to replenish. The battle will be white-hot, and at that time we can choose the best. After all, the journey is already halfway through, so it is easier to grasp the direction even if you take a detour. Qi Wanru groaned and said.

Qin Liang and the others nodded and felt that this was not bad, although they were allowed to attack each other from a distance of three thousand miles. However, when supplies are plentiful, few people will attack others. After all, the key to winning or losing this tournament is to reach the opposite continent to get enough information and return, not to kill more other teams to win.

So there was no conflict of interest at the beginning, so even if there was friction, it was small. Only halfway through the journey, at that time, everyone slowly changed from being safe and quiet to being a competitor. And in order to better complete the next half of the road, many teams need to replenish the materials they consume.

There was undoubtedly a conflict of interest at that time. Or personal needs. Therefore, the battle will definitely break out frequently, so as long as you are careful and low-key in the first half of the road, it is not a big problem to walk safely. As for when to choose a detour, it depends on the situation.

When I left the barracks and set off, it was very bustling because there were too many people, although everyone knew that it was a game to win. But because there is no conflict of interest in front, they are all quite kind, and there are even many who have begun to form alliances and are ready to rush to the other side together.

However, after the team walked for four or five days, 30,000 people were thrown into the vast desert, which was simply a drop in the ocean, especially when encountering some forks in the road, different people chose different paths, and the team began to be broken up little by little, and it seemed not so crowded.

"Actually, we should accept other people's kindness, after all, people are kind and refuse to make people unbearable." Zhou Tong glanced at the battle where several nearby teams had left. There was a look of pity on his face. Walking in the desert for a week and eating sand for a week.

Although all kinds of food and water were prepared, the other party actually got a lot of fruits to come over to offer their courtesy, and they were also those rare spirit fruits above the Xuan rank that were very good for the body of the martial artist, Zhou Tong who saw it just now almost didn't drool, and Ma Jing and the others were also very mobile. But it's a pity that Qi Wanru put on a cold face, and the other party had to leave with something and an embarrassing smile.

"You think so, too?" Qi Wanru didn't look at Zhou Tong who was speaking, but turned to look at Qin Liang.

"Why not, am I such an undisciplined person? Isn't it just a few plates of fruit, we didn't often eat snacks when we were in the magic capital, and we were tired of eating them, who was rare of these things. Qin Liang said righteously. It made Zhou Tong and the others itch the root of their teeth.

Just now, it was obviously this person who glanced at them and asked them to say a few kind words. Not to mention letting the team leader betray the hue, as long as you say a few words to those team leaders, it is estimated that those plates of fruit will be in hand. But at this time, he turned his face and didn't admit it, what is the festival?

"Okay, don't make a fuss, I've been a little restless lately and something might happen, so it's best to be careful at night." Qi Wanru said.

Zhou Tong and the others put away their playful expressions and began to get serious, and as their strength continued to rise, their originally ethereal sixth sense was constantly strengthening. Therefore, for some unknown dangers, although the feeling is not so clear, it will always cause some fluctuations in the heart. Obviously, there has been no wind in the past few days, and several people also feel that something seems to be wrong around them.

"That's a few hundred miles away. Is anyone going to do it here? Zhou Tong couldn't help but guess.

Qin Liang shook his head, "Impossible, no one will joke about their qualifications for the competition." Besides, after so many days, I have endured it, and at most I will endure it for another day or two to get out of 3,000 miles, and all the teams may make a move after the 3,000-mile line, but they will definitely not do it here. ”

"If it's not for these clans around us, it's likely that other enemies are going to do it." Feng Wuxian said with a glint in his eyes.

"Someone else doing it? Do you mean the people from the other continent, or the monsters in the desert? Such a large group of us entered the desert in a mighty way, and those demon beasts had already gone down and didn't know where to hide, how could they send them to death and come to attack us? As for the people on the opposite continent, it is impossible, this is still the border line on our side, and the people on that side seem to have set off at the same time as us as if they had made an appointment, so they shouldn't have come here so quickly. Ma Jing shook his head with some disapproval.

"What do you think about this?" Qin Liang turned his head to look at Qi Wanru, he had vaguely guessed a few points in his heart, but he was a little uncertain.

"Although this desert is part of our continent, we don't really have any control over it. Now it is two thousand miles away from the military base, and even if some forces are active here, if they don't attack our frontier, the garrisons will not come here to clear it. Qi Wanru said with a deep groan.

"Then be careful at night. Pay attention to the fluctuations of the elemental power around you, the power of the earth element in the air has fluctuated a little abnormally recently. Qin Liang said with a frown. Apparently he had sensed something in the past few days, and had found the right direction for the anomaly.

In fact, many people are aware of this, but more than ninety percent of them don't pay attention, and even fewer teams take it out to discuss it. Qin Liang's three teams are one of the very few teams that discuss this issue.

In fact, many people don't pay attention not to say that these people are not careful or vigilant, but that the elemental power of the desert is not active, so what elemental power is active? It can't be the power of the water element, right? Therefore, the deeper you go into the desert earth element, the more active the power is, which should be considered a normal phenomenon, and naturally there is nothing to worry about.

However, if someone's perception ability was as sharp as Qin Liang's, they would find that although as they continued to go deeper into the desert, it was normal for the power of the earth element to become more and more active. However, this active earth element was not simply the power of heaven and earth vitality, but dried with a trace of scorching breath, as if someone was breathing out the gas, with some ontological taste. Then this is really not normal.

In the dead of night, the temperature difference between day and night in the desert is very different, Qin Liang's team brought some hard tents, buried half of the tents in the sand dunes to find a leeward place to set up camp, and it can be said that it is very comfortable to go in and fall asleep at midnight.

Today's weather was fine, and a round of bright moonlight fell on the endless desert, and the sand dunes in the distance looked a little blurred. But the bright moonlight makes people feel a little relaxed, and lying on the desert to enjoy the bright moon is also a very high-grade style.

But when the moon is in the western mid-sky, it has already entered the second half of the night, and in another hour or two the morning star will rise. A subtle fluctuation came from afar, originally in the bright moonlight. Some hazy sand dunes in the distance are still hazy. But if someone stands near the dunes, they will be amazed at how slowly they are moving.

The huge sand dunes move like an ant crawling past their feet, and you can't see it until you look down. At this time, the major teams had already fallen asleep, and the members of the team who were on guard at night only warned the other teams not to attack too much, and did not observe whether the sand dunes were moving.

Ants are small, but they are not slow. The sand dunes spread rapidly in a silent rhythm, and when the moving sand dunes were about to touch the team in front of the team, the vigilant team members seemed to notice something and looked up at the sand dunes behind their tents.

Poof! As soon as the vigilant member of this clan turned his head, the sand under his feet, which was obviously very safe, instantly formed a whirlpool, and swallowed him directly like a lurking giant beast, without making any sound from beginning to end.

The guard post was taken out. The moving sand dunes continued to spread, and in a moment the tents stationed under the dunes were submerged, and the sleeping people inside did not make a sound, everything was so silent. The sand dunes were like a silent beast, devouring a tent with a clan without movement.

Whenever any guard post found something wrong, it was instantly swallowed by the sand under his feet, and in just a moment, the team tent that was about a kilometer long was pulled out here, and a third of it had been swallowed, and the team members in the tent behind were still sleeping soundly in the realm of the vigilant sleep, and they did not notice anything abnormal.

The temperature in the tent today was so comfortable that Qin Liang didn't want to get up when he lay down. In the blur, he seemed to feel something and wanted to open his eyes, and in a daze, Qin Liang felt as if he had opened his eyes, and after looking around, there was nothing abnormal, so he continued to sleep, but he didn't seem to open his eyes.

Qin Liang felt that his eyelids were unusually heavy, and his body was a little stiff, he wanted to turn over and sit up to take a look, but found that his body seemed to be a little uncontrollable. The power of his whole body was as if he was imprisoned in his body, so that he could not use a trace of it.

What's even more terrifying is that Qin Liang is still in a daze, he doesn't feel the danger approaching, and he doesn't feel that he is being controlled by some force and wake up. Instead, he continued to lie there as if he were asleep. A series of images that seemed to be real and seemed to be illusory appeared in his mind, and he couldn't tell whether these were reality or things in his sleep.

Not just Qin Liang, but also all the people who were sleeping soundly in the tent. Many people seem to feel something unusual and want to wake up. But they couldn't wake up, and this kind of inability to wake up did not make them wake up directly from the great crisis, but continued to lie motionless in the tent as if they were in a dream.

Click! A soft sound came from Qin Liang's body, and he saw that on the stump of the dantian tree, the mysterious seed that had not moved for a long time emitted a five-colored light. This five-colored light was like a gear, instantly cutting Qin Liang's state of sleep, making Qin Liang's eyes suddenly open when he wanted to try to open his eyes, but couldn't.

The moment he opened his eyes, Qin Liang suddenly felt a weakening of his body, as if most of the strength in his original body had been drained. But it was only a moment for the power that disappeared to return to the body again, but the body was a little sore, as if the blood was not smooth after sleeping for a long time.

Airplanes...... Qin Liang, who was a little stunned by the fact that his brain had not yet returned to thinking, suddenly changed his complexion, his palm flashed with a rich yellow light, and he slapped towards the ground with a powerful earth power. Qin Liang's tent was originally stationed on a very hard ground, but it instantly turned into nothingness and a big hole appeared.

That's right, not a swirling whirlpool of sand. It's a big hole. Moreover, there was a great suction force from this big hole, wanting to swallow Qin Liang in one bite. The power of the earth in Qin Liang's palm instantly condensed into a huge lid to block the hole, and Qin Liang's palm, who suddenly hung in the air and had nowhere to relay, lightly pressed his body on this cover, and rushed out from the top of the tent.

"What the hell?" Qin Liang shouted, this shout was like thunder on the ground, making the silent dawn instantly become noisy. The people who were originally lying in the tent like Qin Liang seemed to be asleep and wanted to wake up, and the people who couldn't wake up confused them disappeared instantly, and everyone opened their eyes.

But the moment he opened his eyes, the screams kept ringing out, obviously not everyone reacted so quickly like Qin Liang, and instinctively chose the best escape plan, without wasting the slightest time. Many people didn't react at all, and they only had time to let out a scream when they were swallowed by the whirlpool formed by the yellow sand below them.

"Catch!" Qin Liang also didn't think of what he wanted to do to wake up the others. He sent these people into the mouth of an unknown monster one step earlier. However, Qin Liang reacted extremely quickly, and a rope instantly stretched out from the spatial ring and probed into Qi Wanru's tent, directly pulling out the few people who were about to be swallowed up by the yellow sand whirlpool.

"What the hell is this?" Zhou Tong asked with a pale face, the suction of the yellow sand vortex under him just now made him feel a fear of sinking into hell. Obviously, once it is devoured, even if it does not die, it will peel off its skin, especially as a spiritual master, he has not been even the slightest aware of the charm of being spiritually charmed, which makes him feel even more frightened.

But the strange thing is that when some people got rid of the yellow sand vortex on the ground, these whirlpools did not launch a second attack, and the ground returned to normal. And the sand whirlpool is very weird, while devouring people, it won't move anything else.

At the same time, when the people who escaped and were devoured stood still, the sand dunes that covered the previous tent also quickly retreated, only to return to their original appearance in a moment, and it seemed that there was no change in hunger. The tents still stand, and even the fire outside the tents still burns.

But the strange thing is that the original people in these tents are gone, yes, they are gone. If it weren't for the scene just now, everyone would have thought they were dreaming. I had an absurd dream, but at this time, all this was really in front of everyone, which made everyone's backs flutter, and not only a sense of unspeakable fear rose in their hearts.

"What's that?" Those who had escaped narrowly pointed into the distance.

With the help of the dim light of the dawn, everyone saw an ancient city in the distance, an extremely prosperous ancient city, although because the ancient city wall told Ruyun that he could not see the situation inside, but the bustling crowd of people shuttling at the city gate interpreted the prosperity of this ancient city.

The ancient city was so big that they couldn't see the edge of the ancient city even from a distance, but they seemed to be very close to the ancient city. Because vaguely they seemed to hear the noisy business in the bustling ancient city, and even with the help of the dim light of the dawn, they could see the expressions on the faces of the soldiers on the city wall, and feel the cold glow of the weapons in their hands.

"What the hell is this?" Zhou Tong couldn't help but exclaim again, this life was no longer the sudden surprise just now, but with a trill, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Because just now he released his spiritual power to investigate, and he really touched the bustling crowd of people coming in and out of the city gate, and touched the real city wall.

It seemed as if this extremely prosperous ancient city was within his reach, and he couldn't help but want to take a step forward and follow the people at the city gate into the ancient city. Because he saw a lot of familiar figures in the crowd that entered the ancient city, these people seemed to be members of the battle team in the empty tents in front of him. (To be continued.) )
