Chapter 1089: Mutant Cactus

At the critical juncture, if Ma Chengfeng's reaction was slower for a few moments, Kashura might die. But he was too far away from the sand dunes, and now even if he wanted to rush over to save her, it would be too late. He took a look and threw the Seven Star Blade directly towards the center of the sandstorm. The blow was a blow that was going to cut the knife through the strong sandwind.

That old man is definitely not an ordinary person, as long as he is not a human, he must be afraid of the Seven Star Blade. Even if he could use his boundless mana to set off the sand wind, he would not be able to resist the power of the Seven Star Blades.

Like lightning and flint, the Seven Star Blade swished underground, cut through the sandstorm, and disappeared into it.

"Ah...... Yes!!!! Yes...... Yes!!!! The old man's cry of pain came from the sand wind, and then the sand wind gradually stopped. But the old man was not found in the sandstorm.

Ma Chengfeng rushed up and quickly helped Kasilla up, so dangerous! That's a fraction of a second! If it is swept away by the sandwind, the consequences are unimaginable, and I am afraid that Khashura will become a dry skeleton like all the animals in this red sand.

"I'm fine...... Quick, fill up the rest of the water bag! The two stumbled back to the well, filled the remaining water bags, and turned to leave.

When he walked to the sand dune just now, Ma Chengfeng found that a pool of blood appeared under his feet, and the blood flowed out from under the sand.

He opened his hand and motioned for Khasula to stay still.

He quickly recited the knife trick in his mouth. After a moment, they saw that the sand was squirming and squirming, as if something was about to rush out from below, and the two of them dodged. Whoa...... The thing broke through the sand......

The seven-star blade plunged into the old man's chest, and his body flew out from the killing. The old man's chest had been pierced through a hole, and hot blood had fallen from the sky, staining their shirts red.

In the end, the Seven Star Blade flew back into the master's hand, and the old man with the magic of the sky fell heavily on the sand and never moved again.

"Hmph...... That's it! That's it? Still a thousand years old? Still guarding the holy well? It seems that there is really no one in Mobei! Ma Chengfeng said wildly.

"Alright, don't be serious with him here, let's go, the little fox is waiting for the water." The two of them walked one after the other towards the bottom of the dune.

He had just taken a step when he suddenly heard a strange sound behind him, as if sand was flowing behind him. Ma Chengfeng quickly turned his head, everything was normal behind him, the old man's body was crawling flat on the ground, staring at a pair of dead fish eyes motionless.

"Why did I suddenly panic in my chest? Always feel like something is wrong? Ma Chengfeng muttered in a low voice.

"It's not good to stay here, let's go!"

After taking two more steps, Ma Chengfeng stopped again.

"That's not right! Blood? What about blood? "I finally figured it out, the first time I looked back just now, I only saw the old man's body, but the old man's chest was pierced by the Seven Star Blade, and the wound that pierced his chest made him spurt blood, but now there is no trace of blood on the ground. Only an empty skin was left.

Both of their hearts rose to their throats at that moment, and this guy really didn't seem to be that easy to deal with. This corpse is just a stinky skin of his, and the source of its power comes from that pool of blood!

Ma Chengfeng reached out and touched his cheek, and there were still traces of blood splashed on his face when the old man was injured, the blood was very sticky, but when he smelled it, he found that there was no smell of blood from normal creatures, it was actually a fragrant smell of vegetation.

"What the hell is this? It's definitely not as simple as ordinary creatures cultivating into refinement. ”

Kashura shook her head and said, "I don't know, no one has ever approached the holy spring for several years, and even if anyone comes to fetch water, they have never returned!" ”

As the two of them were talking, they vaguely felt that the sand under their feet was constantly sliding, and the whole desert began to shake violently, just like an earthquake. The two supported each other, and they barely got knocked down.

That force is so strong, let alone running back, it's hard to stand firm now!

Crash...... Whoa...... Under the crimson sand, two huge tentacles more than five meters high suddenly stretched out, the tentacles of this monster were covered with rows of sharp thorns, and the two tentacles stretched out in the air and danced, and then, two huge tentacles came out of the sand.

"I'm ...... Are there still octopuses in the desert? He exclaimed.

"It's broken! I know what kind of monster this is! It's a giant man-eating cactus! ”

The desert of the Western Regions is home to many species of vegetation that cannot be seen in the interior, some of which have long been listed as extinct by botanists. This large cactus is one of them.

More than 1,000 years ago, during the most prosperous period of the Silk Road, merchants who traveled to and from the Silk Road were most afraid of not encountering sandstorms or desert horse bandits, but this half-biological and half-plant cactus.

This cactus is extremely vigorous, and the reason why it is said to be a man-eating cactus is because of its powerful hunting skills.

Unlike ordinary cacti, it grows under the sand and feeds on the remaining moisture from the sand. But the water in the desert is very limited, and over hundreds of thousands of years, this guy has evolved another skill, which can live by sucking the blood and water of animals.

There is almost no limit to the lifespan of a man-eating cactus, as long as there is enough food and water supply, it can live for tens of thousands of years! However, in recent years, with the severe desertification, this ancient strange monster has almost disappeared. I didn't expect to be accidentally bumped into by the two of them this time. Not only is this a rare man-eating cactus in the world, but this guy looks like he has a lifespan of thousands of years.

As long as it is an object in the world, whether it is dead or alive, once the years have passed, it will inevitably become a refinement.

In folk jokes, even the century-old water tanks and door panels in the homes of ordinary people can be refined, not to mention this half-biological and half-plant monster in the desert?

The old man who was killed by Ma Chengfeng just now was actually a lost traveler a few years ago, the old man was captured by the mutated cactus guarding the holy spring, and his body became his parasite. Now that the parasite has been destroyed, the monster has regained its original form.

The mutated cactus was covered in thorns, it had lived so long that its plant-colored tentacles had evolved into a crimson color like the nearby sand. The monster was so big that each tentacle was five or six meters tall, dancing in mid-air like the tentacles of an octopus. Ma Chengfeng looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't find where this guy's head was.

"What are you looking for? It's not an animal? Have you ever seen a cactus with a head? Khasira shouted.
