Chapter 111: Giant Worm Canyon

The night was uneventful and nothing happened. Early the next morning, Bian Yao made a suggestion to stay in the oasis for one more day, but the gray-clothed boy sternly refused. Helplessly, he had to give up this idea, and after washing up and cleaning up, the two left the oasis and continued all the way south.

After three days of running, on the afternoon of the fourth day, they reached the edge of the dry sandy land. Continuing south, the land ahead is still barren, but sparse grass vegetation can already be seen on the ground.

At sunset, the two dragged their tired steps to the southern end of the dry sandy land.

A wasteland vultures scurried overhead, flying from north to south, dragging a swift shadow in the setting sun. The two of them slowly stopped, and their way was blocked by a large canyon.

Before parting on the outskirts of the imperial city, the night corpse had given Bian Yao a map, which marked some special places, and this canyon was among them.

The "Giant Worm Canyon" is a very deep and long canyon, which stretches for thousands of kilometers from west to east, almost spanning most of the chaotic plains. It's an ancient and dangerous place, and no one knows how old it has been.

At the bottom of the deep valley of the giant insect canyon, there are all kinds of huge insects, including spiders, centipedes, scorpions, praying mantises, etc. According to rumors, there are a very small number of powerful insects at the bottom of the valley, which can even easily kill the Dream King powerhouse!

At this moment, the slanting sun shone on the earth, and the golden afterglow shone on the bodies of the two teenagers, pulling down a long overlapping silhouette on the ground. They stood silently at the edge of the canyon, staring at the bottom of the valley with shocked expressions on their faces.

The cross-section of the canyon is very steep, the valley is more than 100 zhang deep, and there are continuous cliffs on both sides, and there are different kinds of trees and flowers growing in between. Because of the angle of the residual sun, the light and darkness alternately reflect the mottled canyon, which looks spectacular and gorgeous at a glance. Looking at the valley floor again, there was smoke everywhere, and it was hazy and hazy, and it was impossible to see the specific scene below.

Looking at the majestic and magnificent Grand Canyon from afar, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart! After a while, he spoke: "This seems to be the Giant Worm Canyon, and there is some trouble." It's getting dark now, so let's find a way to get through tomorrow. ”

"What's the trouble! Rumor doesn't it mean that there are a lot of big bugs alive down here. The gray-clothed young man said in a cold and arrogant tone, and at the same time bent down, picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it towards the bottom of the valley.

"Anyway, I know it's more dangerous down here, those bugs aren't simply big, otherwise they wouldn't be so scary as they were. Bian Yao smiled, then squatted down to pick up a stone, and threw it hard towards the smoke area at the bottom of the canyon.

Perhaps because the canyon was too deep or for some other reason, the stones that the two men threw down one after another did not make or cause any sound or movement.

Before the sun had completely set, the two walked a little further west along the edge of the canyon, paying attention to the terrain and environment of the valley floor and the valley walls on both sides, hoping to find some useful information.

As soon as the sunset was gone, it quickly darkened, and they stopped moving, camping out beside a raised rock at the edge of the canyon. There are no tall shelters around, and the late autumn evening breeze is constant, and it is a little cool on the body!

At night, the twinkling stars fill the night sky, and the world is peaceful and peaceful.

Bian Yao took out a jar of spirit fruit wine from the space bag and drank it separately with the gray-clothed young man, neither of them spoke, nor was they in a hurry to meditate and cultivate. They just sat quietly and felt the tranquility of the "Giant Worm Canyon" wrapped in the night.

However, soon after the earth fell silent, some faint movement began to be heard at the bottom of the canyon in the darkness, and occasionally one or two loud strange noises echoed back and forth in the valley.

"You should hear me now, right?" Bian Yao listened for a moment, turned his head to look at the young man in gray, and said half-jokingly: "I hope those big guys only move at night and hide and sleep during the day." ”

"It's not fun to hide them all! Don't you want to see what those so-called huge insects really look like?" the gray-clothed young man rested his head on the baggage, and the cloth-wrapped Pu sword lay flat at his side.

"You don't know how powerful those big guys are! If you really want to meet tomorrow, you must not take it lightly!" The wind on the canyon was quite strong, and Bian Yao felt a little cold, as he spoke, he took out a thin robe from the space bag and draped it over his body. When it comes to the ability to withstand cold and heat, a mid- and low-level dream cultivator is far inferior to a sword cultivator of the same level.

The sky was beginning to dawn, and the morning sky before the morning sun rose was slightly tinged with light cyan.

The narrowest part of the Giant Worm Canyon is a hundred feet wide and long, and if you want to reach the opposite side, unless you take a detour along the shore of the canyon for more than ten days, you can only pass through the smoky valley floor.

In the middle of the valley slope on the north side of the canyon, under a strange tree with fan-shaped branches, Bian Yao and the gray-clothed boy were squatting behind the trunk of the tree, poking their heads to look at the valley floor in the mist from time to time.

The burden on the gray-clothed young man was gone, and in his hand there was only the unwrapped Pu sword. Because the terrain of the valley slope was too steep, and he was in a dangerous situation, it was very inconvenient to move with two big burdens on his back, so he had to temporarily put the burden into Bian Yao's space bag.

At this moment, the position of the two of them is about fifty zhang away from the valley bottom. Presumably because of the closer, they could hear all kinds of chirps coming from below the canyon more clearly, as well as some other movements, light or heavy. However, because of the thick mist at the bottom of the valley and the special environment of the canyon, it is impossible to determine the specific location of those sounds and movements.

"What are you stopping for?" the gray-clad young man frowned, his voice full of doubt.

"No! It's not good to go down rashly like this, so it's better for me to use my clone to explore first, and familiarize myself with the environment at the bottom of the valley before acting. Bian Yao shook his head slightly, frowned and said seriously: "You wait here for a while, and by the way, look at the body for me, don't let me fall." Wait until I'm familiar with the following situation before leaving, so that it will be less trouble!"

After speaking, Bian Yao turned around and sat up with his back against the trunk of the tree, the valley wall was very steep, and he could not sit down smoothly without a leaning.

The gray-clothed young man didn't speak again, holding on to the trunk of the tree with one hand, staring intently at Bian Yao in case he had an accident.

After a few breaths, Bian Yao's dream clone suddenly floated next to the big tree, and as soon as Fang appeared, he climbed a convex rock next to him, and he still held the Wusha Sword in his hand. He turned his face and smiled at the gray-clothed young man, then lowered his body and carefully moved towards the bottom of the valley.

In addition to the sparse trees, there are also a wide variety of grasses growing among the rocks on the valley wall, some of which look like pins and saws, and if you are not careful, your skin will be scratched by thorns.

Bian Yao climbed the stone wall and slowly dived down, and when he was still about ten zhang away from the bottom of the valley, white smoke began to float behind and beside him, and the air became humid. It was about a quarter of an hour before he reached the bottom of the valley, his feet in a strange grass.

Unlike the top of the valley, the temperature at the bottom of the valley is neither cold nor cold, even though it is late autumn, and it is very comfortable to be in it. Snorting and concentrating, Bian Yao turned his head and slowly looked around, but saw that the white hazy mist was flowing slowly, and everything that came into his eyes was faint and blurry.

The fog was very thick, and the visibility was only about half a foot, and I couldn't see the sky when I looked up. When he came down, Bian Yao made a rough estimate, and the space about ten zhang high from the bottom of the canyon was filled with mysterious water mist of unknown origin.

After standing still for a short time, Bian Yao pointed out the direction and began to move towards the opposite side of the canyon.

The ground at the bottom of the valley is uneven, hard in some places, soft in others, and water accumulates in potholes. Clusters of wild flowers and plants of different colors and shapes can be seen everywhere, and the mist is mixed with a strange smell.

Bian Yao held the Wusha sword tightly, listening carefully to the movements around him, while slowly moving his body in the fluttering mist, not daring to make any sound.

Suddenly, there was a "click"! Bian Yao's feet made a crisp sound, as if something had been trampled on. He was startled, and hurriedly paused to look at his feet.

In the gray-green grass, there was a mutilated corpse! What he had just accidentally stepped on seemed to be a human skull, half of which was missing, and the remaining half of the white skull was faintly visible with gray spots.

Bian Yao was surprised, and a trembling sound suddenly sounded in his ears, and he quickly approached where he was! He subconsciously tightened the Wusha sword in his hand, and his face was nervous and put on a defensive posture.

In the middle of breathing, a huge crimson head broke into Bian Yao's line of sight, this is a giant centipede! The body is hidden in the fog and I can't see how long it is, about three feet high, and the long tentacles can't help but twist, that look is very terrifying!

As soon as its head was revealed, the giant centipede launched a ferocious attack on Bian Yao without any scruples, and the pair of sharp poisonous palate teeth opened and closed to bite all over his body.

Bian Yao quickly jumped backwards, avoiding the first bite of the giant centipede, and his body retreated one after another. Seeing that the attack failed, the giant centipede continued to launch a rapid and fierce attack, and the action of this person and insect drove the nearby fog to begin to flow faster.

Because his line of sight was limited to half a zhang and he couldn't clearly see the surrounding environment, Bian Yao didn't dare to let go of his speed to move, he could only rely on his intuition to dodge back and forth in a limited range.

After a dozen breaths, Bian Yao flashed another attack from the giant centipede, and just jumped backwards, and in an instant, he saw that the centipede suddenly stopped attacking, but put on a defensive posture as if facing a great enemy!

Suddenly, he felt something stab him in the back, and then his falling body actually stopped, hanging in midair.

Looking down and seeing a thumb-thick spike emerging from his chest, Bian Yao's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and a series of ziz sounds came out from the chest of the stab. Although the dream clone does not feel pain, it can feel abnormalities and feel uncomfortable.

Bian Yao struggled and turned his head to look behind him, it was a huge scorpion! bigger than the centipede that had disappeared into the fog on the other side. It was its tail spines that pierced itself, and it was unknown when it had sneaked up on the vicinity, wielding its huge black chelicera, its sharp pincers glowing coldly.

With a sudden flash of his eyes, Bian Yao raised his arm violently and swung the Wusha sword, quickly slashing towards the tail thorn behind him, but before the blade touched the tail thorn, his arm was clamped by a giant pincer, and his legs were also clamped by another giant pincer!

In an instant, Bian Yao's body let out a violent tremor, and immediately turned into a canopy of rich aura, which collapsed and melted into the white mist!
