Chapter 512: Sub-Star Pillar
In the stone hall, there are a total of twelve huge pillars.
According to the information I have obtained, these pillars are called the Twelve Heavenly Star Pillars.
They are arranged according to the twelve earthly branches, namely: Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai.
I had to start with the sub-pillars and challenge them one after the other.
Although I don't know how the space in each pillar is different. But I believe that as long as I complete all the challenges of the Twelve Heavenly Star Pillars, my cultivation should be able to break through to the Spirit Immortal.
In front of the sub-pillars of the Twelve Heavenly Pillars, I bit my finger and drew a strange symbol with blood on my fingertips. The shape of this symbol is also something I learned from my sleep.
"Buzz!!" When I finished drawing the symbol, the shimmering circle of stones on the pillar suddenly shone brightly. I quickly subconsciously blocked my eyes with my hands.
In the midst of this burst of light, I suddenly felt dizzy, and my whole body seemed to levitate. Belch...... It doesn't seem to be levitating, but the whole person has completely lost its center of gravity and is falling.
I couldn't help but panic at this sudden feeling, and I couldn't help but use my hands to block the glare of light. I waved my hands to steady my weight.
However, this feeling did not last long, and suddenly a feeling of solidity came from the soles of my feet, and I knew that I was safe.
There was no more dazzling light in front of me, and a fiery sensation enveloped me.
I looked around.
This is......
Desert?
In front of me was an endless desert, and I didn't see the sun in the sky, but it felt very hot. Even breathing in the air that enters my body gives me a piping hot feeling.
"Gah!!" A very strange cry suddenly sounded, I don't know how to describe it, like a large heavy wooden door being pushed open, and like a duck screaming. But it's very, very loud.
I didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately took out my seven-star knife from my storage ring, and then cautiously looked around.
"Boom!! Boom Boom ......Boom Boom "After that strange scream, I saw a high sand dune suddenly protrude in the sand a few hundred meters in front of me, and this sand dune rushed towards me at a very fast speed.
There's something in the sand, and something is arching out of the sand and rushing towards me.
"Seven Star Sword!!" I didn't dare to hesitate, jumped up high on the spot, then held the knife in both hands, made a gesture of slashing Huashan, and slashed down at the sand dune with a fierce knife.
The power of my current Seven-Star Sword has completely improved by a lot compared to before.
The sword slashed down at the sand dunes that were rushing swiftly towards them.
"Boom!" The yellow sand flew up, and my body fell, and my feet were a little on the sand and went in the other direction.
The yellow sand fell, and I saw that the dune was not moving.
"I should have been chopped to death, right?" I patted my chest with some trepidation and said.
It was so sudden, I had just arrived here and was attacked like this.
I'd love to go over and see what the thing that attacked me was now, but I'm not sure if I've killed it. So, I didn't move and waited patiently.
I waited for about five minutes and saw that the dunes were indeed not moving. I cautiously walked towards the dune.
When I came to a position about three meters away from the small sand dune, I raised my hand and pushed it with one palm.
The wind rolled up by the spiritual power pushed out, and a brown thing was pushed out of the sand dune.
This is?
A very strange thing. It looks a little like a scorpion and a little like an armadillo! Belch...... No, more like a pangolin. Heck, it's a very, very weird guy anyway, something I've never seen before.
Its fist-sized head was struck by my sword, and a long hole was opened.
It seems that I was lucky, this thing was hiding under the sand, and when my knife slashed through it, it actually hit its tiny head.
Despite its small head, it has four terrifying-looking claws.
In particular, its pair of front claws have three long black claws, each of which resembles a sharp dagger, which is very scary.
Looking at its unusually sharp claws, I couldn't help but be glad that the place where I landed was some distance away from it. If I landed right where it was, it suddenly burst out against me when I was unsuspected. That......
I can't help but be scared when I think about it.
I didn't know what it was, but I thought about it and grabbed it and sent its corpse into my Chaos Orb.
Take it first, maybe it's not necessarily a treasure. At least the hard shell on its body looks very powerful, and it might be of some use to me.
After putting the weird thing away, I took the compass out of the storage ring.
"I'll go!" After looking at the compass, I couldn't help but curse to myself. Because my compass is useless here, it's completely ineffective.
I walked forward for a while, then looked around on a slightly higher position. There was yellow sand everywhere, and I couldn't tell the difference between east and west.
Ay......
I let out a long sigh, then took out the jug and drank half of it. After quenching my thirst, I decided to pick a random direction.
I know that this space is nothing more than sealed by the formation. It shouldn't be that big here, and I just need to go in one direction and I should be able to find the edge of this space.
Just as I was leaving, I heard a rustling sound all around.
Hearing these sounds, I quickly stopped, turned around and looked around.
I saw some insects coming out of the yellow sand, many, many insects.
No, not a worm, but a scorpion. It's really a scorpion this time. Many, many scorpions.
When I looked up, these scorpions looked very close to the yellow sand, and they were very large, the largest of which was at least two feet long, and the smallest was about half a foot long.
Whew......
There are scorpions coming out of the sand all the time.
Dense, many, many!
Even though I don't have a phobia of denseness, my heart can't help but tighten when I look at so many dense scorpions, and then I turn around and run.
These scorpions shouldn't be very powerful, I can kill one with a single sword. But I still had to run because there were so many.
I can't imagine that if I had been surrounded by these things, I might not even have any bones left.
I unleashed my cloud stride with all my might, soared into the air, and slammed out in one direction. My wandering steps are no longer what they used to be. I can use the cloud walk to soar directly seven or eight meters into the air, and then gallop forward. Every time I take off, I can jump forward about twenty or thirty meters.
With a slight hint of force on the sand, I immediately jumped up and forward.
"Rustle...... There were more and more scorpions behind me, and I didn't dare to stop for half a minute, so I increased my speed to the fastest.
I kept running for about two hours when I noticed some changes in the sand under my feet. In the previous place, the sand was very loose and very fine. The sand under my feet was now a little more solid.
I ran forward for another half hour or so, and I noticed what appeared to be a dark shadow on the distant horizon.
Because it's so far away, I don't know what that dark shadow is. Maybe it's an oasis in the desert.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but increase my speed again and gallop in the direction of the black shadow.
I looked back at this point, and behind me, the scorpions had now given up chasing me. They must have all gone back to the sand, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.
I had been running for about two more hours before I could see what the shadow was.
It was a green mountain range.
It made me rejoice. With the mountains, I can find clean water. It's been a long time since I've had a good shower. I don't care about the rest, I'll have to take a good shower.
After another hour of galloping, I finally got out of the desert full of yellow sand, and then I saw a large river a few hundred meters wide.
I didn't even think about it, but when I got to the river, I threw myself on the river and drank the water.
The water is very clear, and it has a faint sweetness to drink.
"Hiccup!" After a long hiccup, my consciousness moved and I dragged the river and sent it into my Chaos Orb.
Grandpa told me not to introduce anything into my Chaos Orb. But I don't think about it that much now. With such a clear river, it shouldn't have much impact on the development of my Chaos Bead.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa......" The river was constantly being led into my Chaos Orb.
"Sizzle! No, don't mix with the demon lake after these rivers are brought in! In that case, I won't be able to use it! "I thought of a key point and quickly stopped.
Immediately after stopping, I entered my Chaos Orb.
After entering the Chaos Orb, what I feared did happen. My ghost lake is a lot bigger at this point. The river water I brought in was mixed up.
Ay......
I let out a long sigh, then found another relatively clean place, and quickly dug a large hole.
In the chaotic world, no matter what I do, it's very, very fast. Because this chaotic world belongs to me, and I am the master here.
After digging a large, large pit, I left the Chaos World and began to control the Chaos Orb into the river again.
Under my control, the water that had been brought in this time was no longer mixed with the evil spirits, but was stored separately in the deep pit I had dug.
