Lu Yi embarked on the journey again, he only stayed in Xialu City for a month, his original purpose was to achieve a certain status in Xialu City, to echo the Hongning Empire, and now the goal has been achieved, and it is also the eighth chair with a lot of weight, and after learning that the top eight positions in Xialu City can support a certain force, Lu Yi naturally pulled Lin Li and the two seventh-order monks brought in from Jade City.

At the same time, Lu Yi also recruited some subordinates in Xialu City. Because of his black heart and black hand, he left an indelible shadow on the people of Kasumi City, so it was quite difficult for him to recruit his subordinates at the beginning, because no one dared to sign up. Although he knew that following such a full-cultivation genius was an extremely promising thing, but he had just calculated the monks of Xialu City and taken a lot of spirit stones from their pockets, how could people not have a bad heart? Especially when Lu Yi went out and wanted to visit Xialu City thoroughly, because he was now a well-known celebrity, and his status was high, so that others would avoid him when they saw him from afar, pointing and pointing behind his back to say something. Lu Yi didn't care about this, except for communicating with other powerful figures in Xialu City and getting acquainted with each other, he deliberately ran out every day at other times, wandering around the market in Xialu City every day, and where there were many people, he would go wherever there was excitement. At first, when people saw him, they were respectful and awe-inspiring, but after many times and a long time, especially after he personally adjudicated a few small disputes, people slowly began to think that this young man was still very good on weekdays, as long as he didn't provoke him, it seemed that he was not so scary. Under Lu Yi's people-friendly line, the people of Xialu City finally let go of the mustard and began to get to know Lu Yi again. In addition, Lu Yi's conditions for recruiting subordinates are very generous, and there are always those who are bold enough to try to contact Lu Yi, and if there are those who eat crabs, there are those who follow the trend, and it didn't take long for Lu Yi's team to pull up. By the time he left, a team of 100 monks had been established in Xialu City, all of whom were monks of the sixth order or above, and Lu Yi also allowed each of these 100 people to accept ten more subordinates, which was equivalent to having an army of 1,000 people. Lu Yi took out all the offerings he could get in Xialu City and handed them to Lin Yue, asking Lin Yue to temporarily sit in Xialu City for himself for a few years, and Lin Yue's cultivation close to the middle stage of spirit building also made the other helmsmen in Xialu City feel more at ease, high or low, not too high, not too low, will not touch too many other people's interests, and can be pulled out at a critical moment to block the façade.

Taking advantage of this month's time, after the celebration of Lu Yi officially sitting on the eighth chair in Xialu City, Lu Yi, who had arranged many follow-up matters, quietly left Xialu City, this time only Ji Fatzi and Li Nianqiu followed him away, Lin Yue and the two seventh-order monks were left by Lu Yi to temporarily manage the people of Xialu City, and the human butcher was pulled by the Tianquan Venerable, saying that he wanted him to help and made a heavy promise, so the Tianquan Venerable also personally visited Lu Yi to ask him to speak, because he also saw that the human butcher only listened to Lu Yi's words。 In order not to make the relationship with Xialu City too stiff, Lu Yi and the Venerable Tianquan privately reached another agreement, leaving someone to help him for a while, but Xia Lucheng wanted to establish contact with the Hongning Empire and reach an offensive and defensive alliance between the two sides, in order to deal with unexpected events that might happen to both sides. This was actually not a big deal for the Venerable Master of Tianquan, but it was a double insurance for both parties, so he happily agreed.

Lu Yi's next destination is the distant country, the distant city. Walking on the road, Lu Yi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, where did his vote go? The message he sent to the fat man also received a reply some time ago, and the fat man said that he had not found those people who had found him, which couldn't help but make Lu Yi a little more worried. Lu Yi thinks about it now, when they were trapped in the small world outside the square, just like the residents in a dangerous building, they just saw that the building was about to collapse, but they didn't want the building to be even more miserable, and finally got out of the danger, but fell into a bigger quagmire, I really don't know if this is a blessing or a curse for them?!

As the saying goes, it's a blessing not a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. While Lu Yi was worried about others here, he ran into a disaster head-on.

There are many windy sands in the Western Regions, and the monks who walk in the Western Regions all year round know that once a black wind blows, it is like a ghost crying and howling, sweeping the yellow sand in the sky, forming a sandstorm more than 100 zhang high. Because that kind of sandstorm is very strange, it seems that the ordinary gravel that can be seen everywhere, once it is swept up by the black wind, it will form sandstone of different sizes with the help of the wind, and the sandstones will be poured and combined with each other, and a new sandstone will be formed again, and everything else that is involved in the wind will be ground because of the mutual tilting of the sandstone. If you can't pass through the range of the wind in time, sooner or later, you will inevitably die of spiritual power exhaustion. Fortunately, before the formation of this black wind, there is a vision of heaven and earth that can be judged in advance, and people who have lived in the Western Regions for a long time know that as long as they see colorful clouds rising from the sky for no reason, and then the colorful clouds will gradually turn black, it means that the black wind is about to form. The size of the colorful clouds is proportional to the size of the wind and the size of the wind area, and the larger the clouds, the more violent the black wind and the wider the area.

When they walked over a vast and desolate desert, they found a large area of colorful glow in front of them. Along the way, they saw that the big and small demon beasts on the ground were fleeing for their lives or digging holes under the sand to hide, and they thought that the birth of the strange treasure had disturbed these creatures, and the three of them couldn't help but speed up the pace of progress. After the three of them discovered the change in the celestial phenomena and the multicolored glow was replaced by dense black clouds, the three of them had already fallen into the area of the black wind. When the wind rises, the ghost cries and the wolf howls, and the sand flies away from the rocks, and the spiritual power is instantly suppressed to the range of the outside of the body, and the aura of heaven and earth is completely separated by the wind and sand, and it is impossible to communicate at all, let alone want to teleport. Soon the three of them discovered the power of this black wind and sandstorm, Lu Yi and Li Nianqiu were okay, their bodies had been refined by heaven and earth, but Ji Fatzi couldn't withstand the impact of such a mad demon at all, even if he opened all the sixth-order defensive magic weapons that Lu Yi gave him, he felt that the spiritual power consumption was lost like flowing water, and the roots couldn't last long. Seeing this, Lu Yi reluctantly released a trap bird, pulled Ji Fatzi and Li Nianqiu to sit in, with the protection of the trap bird, the three of them suddenly relaxed a lot, but the trap bird could not fly in the sandstorm, like a small sailboat on the sea that was swept by the monstrous waves. Moreover, because of the attack of the sandstone, the spirit stones of the trap bird were consumed quite a lot, and in less than a stick of incense, hundreds of high-grade spirit stones were consumed. Seeing that the defensive light curtain on the periphery of the trap bird was rapidly weakening, Lu Yi had no choice but to take out a large pile of spirit stones and let Ji Shuliu be responsible for filling the trap bird at any time, while he and Li Nianqiu stood on the back of the trap bird, and sent out spells at any time to hit the larger sandstone that impacted the trap bird to reduce the consumption of the trap bird.

The wind lasted for an unknown amount of time, and there was no way to discern the direction or time in the wind, but after estimating the consumption of nearly 50,000 high-grade spirit stones by Lu Yi, the wind suddenly disappeared without warning, and the sand and dust mixed with everything that had been ravaged into fine powder by the sandstorm fell to the ground like rain, and the bird was able to break through the dust and debris and soar into the sky.

Lu Yi stood on the back of the bird with a gloomy face, not to mention that all the spirit stones he won in Xialu City were folded in, and he also pasted thousands of them upside down, and a few days ago, he felt that he had picked up a big bargain in Xialu City, and the next moment he was taken away by God, so that he was happy in vain, it was really a blessing and a curse. Looking at the sand and debris that had been piled up like a mountain on the ground, Lu Yi was also very happy, according to the consumption of spirit stones, the three of them should have been in this sandstorm for more than ten days, and the high-intensity spiritual power consumption for more than ten days could not be well replenished, it was really difficult to maintain. If there is no trap bird, with the manpower of the three people alone, it is estimated that Li Nianqiu can still survive, crossing the hurdle of spirit building, after going through the heavenly purification again, the spiritual power that the spirit building monk can store is simply different from that of the spirit monk, plus the body has also become stronger after the second refinement, so the consumption in the storm is relatively much less. As for the monks below the spirit building level, even if they have strong spiritual power like themselves, it may be difficult for everyone to hold on for so long, let alone an ordinary monk with mediocre abilities like Ji Shuliu. There is a bigger problem, the wind of more than ten days, I don't know where the three of them have been blown, looking at the vast desert around, Lu Yi can't wait to scold God fiercely, you said that you took the spirit stone I won, but it also blew me to nowhere, aren't you deliberately playing with me?!

There is no way, fortunately, there is a sun in the sky, so let's go in the direction of the sun first, and then inquire when we find a populated town. Put away the trap bird and let Li Nianqiu take it, and the three of them began to teleport, the top priority is to find the way first, and they don't care about the safety of the Western Regions at the moment.

The so-called blessing and misfortune are not alone, Lu Yi looked at the smoke in front of him, and scolded his mother fiercely in his heart.
