Chapter Forty-Eight: The Barren Desert
"Father recuperates in peace, and everything is left to the mourner. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Luo Yan said indifferently, his words were full of unquestionable calmness, after all, since he entered Dongchengwei at the age of twelve, he has never disappointed Luo Zhantian in the past eighteen years.
"Mother, you can rest for a long time, and you will go out. Luo Yan greeted Long Jingxue again, and before he could answer, he turned around and exited the cabin.
"This kid ......" Long Jingxue looked helplessly at Luo Zhantian's departing back, and then looked at Luo Zhantian and said with a sigh.
"Eighteen years of Dongchengwei's military career has created such a heart as Yan'er, and it's not a bad thing, besides, isn't it enough to have pupils revolving around you every day?" Luo Zhantian saw his mother's overflowing appearance, and then said jokingly.
Long Jingxue glanced at Luo Zhantian, and in an instant, he was slightly distracted by Luo Zhantian.
"Brother Zhan Tian, what are you staring at stupidly? Long Jingxue saw Luo Zhantian's stunned appearance, as if she had returned to her childhood, and then scolded with a smile.
Then he muttered to himself, "But I really miss the three of them a little, Hitomi doesn't know if I'm listening to Bing'er, and Xiao Han doesn't know if I'm back in the Ice God Palace!"
The laughter and scolding were in his ears, Luo Zhantian instantly came back to his senses, and he heard Long Jingxue's muttering, and then said, "Xue'er rest assured, as long as I am Luo Zhantian, this meeting of the three clans will definitely end smoothly, and we will return as soon as possible." Long Jingxue nodded quietly when she heard this.
The journey on the Reiki Sea is dry and boring, and as far as the eye can see, it is full of deep blue waters. The three days passed leisurely in this dull and boring way, and as far as the eye could see, the land that shone with a little golden light was still shrouded in heavy fog, and there was no sense that it was approaching because of the three-day voyage.
In the cabin, Luo Zhantian sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, constantly breathing, and the majestic aura of the sea of aura had already immersed him in it. Long Jingxue accompanied her side, and she was also absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.
On the deck, the old man of the boat had already formed an inertia in driving the dragon sail, but when he saw him leaning on the boat and sitting on the ground casually, his eyes slightly closed, and a big sleeve waving naturally, the dragon sail was so fast to ride the wind and waves.
Dongchengwei and the other soldiers are also kneeling on the ground, and they are in the process of cultivating. Only Luo Yan looked into the distance, as if he could see through the heavy fog on the sea of spiritual energy, and his eyes like copper bells stared at the sea around Long Fan from time to time, as if he was alert to the danger that might suddenly occur under the sea surface.
At this moment, the hull of the ship trembled imperceptibly, and Luo Yan felt a little, and hurriedly jumped on the mast to look around. But Zhou Lao was calm as usual, and then his eyes opened slightly and said indifferently, "Little friend, don't be nervous, it's just the waves." Then he closed his eyes slightly and continued to wave his sleeves. However, the development of things did not go as Zhou Lao said, and the hull gradually changed from an undetectable tremor to a violent tremor, and even began to shake.
"Dongcheng Guard listens to the order, all on alert!" Luo Yan shouted loudly. But seeing that the three thousand soldiers got up in an instant, and in an instant there were long spears, and then they stomped heavily on their feet, and the hull of the ship was already stable.
At this time, Zhou Lao could no longer maintain that leisurely demeanor, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the sea around Long Fan, even if he had sailed on the sea of aura several times, he had not encountered such a situation for a long time.
"Brother Zhantian, should we go up and have a look?" In the cabin, Long Jingxue looked at Luo Zhantian, who was still breathing with his eyes closed, and asked worriedly.
"It's okay, leave everything to the funeral. Luo Zhantian did not open his eyes, nor did he stop pranayama, obviously he had absolute confidence in Luo Zhan.
At this time, the waves on the sea were surging, and a huge wave of a hundred feet high suddenly rose and shrouded down towards the dragon sail. Zhou Lao's hands instantly sealed, and a huge ice spirit sail covered the hull of the ship, resisting the monstrous waves that swept in. Luo Yan stared closely at the huge waves, and there seemed to be a huge mouth that was taking shape.
The huge waves crashed down on the dragon sail, and although it was blocked by the ice spirit sail, the hull of the ship was still pressed below the surface of the sea by the huge force. Zhou Lao hurriedly used his aura, wanting to lift the dragon sail to the surface of the sea. At the same time, the huge mouth of the giant wave finally appeared, swallowing towards Long Fan, and the impact brought by it was that even the surrounding sea water was pressed to both sides, forming a vacuum area wrapped around Long Fan.
"It's a sea swallowing beast!" Zhou Lao's face couldn't help but change, "It's troublesome now, isn't this a fierce beast in the depths of the sea of spiritual energy, how did it run to the surface of the sea?"
Before Zhou Lao could make a move, suddenly a green light flashed, and he saw Luo Yan holding a silver ice spear, his long silver-white hair dancing wildly in the wind, turning into a streamer and rushing into the giant mouth of the sea swallowing beast.
"This kid, is this going to die?" Zhou Lao couldn't stop it, so he could only watch Luo Yan rush into the giant mouth.
However, Zhou Lao's worry only lasted for a moment, the moment Luo Yan rushed into the giant mouth, the earth-shattering impact of the Sea Swallowing Beast came to an abrupt end, and a green light pierced out from his head, and it was Luo Yan who was holding a silver ice spear in one hand. But seeing the cold light on the tip of the gun, there were traces of blood on it that slowly penetrated into the tip of the gun, and when the blood stains disappeared, the ice gun also trembled, as if telling of excitement.
The huge body of the Sea Swallower smashed into the sea, rolling up monstrous waves. Zhou Lao hurriedly stabilized the hull of the ship, and after a quick glance, he saw that on the head of the Sea Swallowing Beast, the huge blood hole that had been wounded by Luo Yan had condensed into ice, and the blood hole was actually charred black, and there was not the slightest blood gushing out, as if it had been burned out.
Zhou Lao glanced at Luo Yan who had already fallen back to the deck in surprise, and clapped his hands and praised, "Luo Yan Xiaoyou is really good, he actually killed this sea swallowing beast whose strength is comparable to the transformation realm under the ice spear with one blow, the old man admires and admires!"
"Zhou Lao praised it!" Luo Yan was still like this, a short cold tone, and then he ignored Zhou Lao, still looking into the distance alone.
After another two days of quietly, the golden land hidden in the heavy fog was gradually becoming clear.
In the cabin, Luo Zhantian's eyes, which had always been closed, slowly opened, and the essence in his eyes as deep as starlight flickered, obviously pranayama had recovered to its best state.
"Cher, it looks like it's almost there. Luo Zhantian stood up and said with Long Jingxue's Qianran hand.
"Then let's go up!" Long Jingxue replied, and the two of them immediately got up and walked out of the cabin.
"Father, mother!" Luo Yan saw the two of them bow slightly and said, and he was even more silent in front of Dongchengwei and the other soldiers.
Luo Zhantian nodded slightly, walked straight to the edge of the boat, and looked in the direction of the barren desert. Long Jingxue smiled indifferently at Luo Zhan, and also followed Luo Zhantian to stand by his side.
"Brother Zhantian, is this a barren desert?" I saw that the land in front of me gradually became clearer, and then it became incomparably huge, and there was a long stretch of yellow sand as far as the eye could see, shining under the scorching sun, flashing with golden light.
"Yes, it's a barren desert. Before Luo Zhantian could answer, Zhou Lao didn't know when he stood behind the two of them, and then said, "The old man has only been here once in his lifetime, and that was when he brought your father here nearly forty years ago. The climate of this barren desert is indeed too harsh, the scorching sun is extremely scorching, the wind and sand are howling, compared to our Ice God Realm, it is simply the difference between heaven and earth, this time the old man stayed on the ship, saying nothing and not going ashore. Zhou Lao's expression seemed to recall the harsh climate that accompanied King Lao Luo to the barren desert, and it was still painful to recall it.
Long Jingxue couldn't help but smile when she saw Zhou Lao's expression as if she had seen a ghost, and then asked Luo Zhantian, "Brother Zhantian, is the climate of this barren desert really so terrifying? ”
"Indeed, the climate of the barren desert is completely different from that of my Ice God Realm, and we Ice God Clansmen are extremely unaccustomed here, not only because of the harsh climate, but also because the aura of heaven and earth here does not contain any aura power. Luo Zhantian explained indifferently that he had traveled to the barren desert several times when he was young, and Luo Yan was rescued from this when he was eighteen years old, so he was really familiar with the barren desert.
"In this way, without the cold power in the aura of heaven and earth, we can only rely on the aura in our own body to perform spiritual arts, and the combat power will be greatly reduced. Long Jingxue frowned, obviously she hadn't thought about this before.
"That's true, if my Ice God Clan fights on the barren desert, it can only exert seventy percent of its usual strength, and the consumption rate of spiritual energy is more than twice that of normal days. Luo Zhantian's words were the crux of the problem.
"Then the people of the Flame God Clan should be like this!" Long Jingxue knew that the Martial God Clan and the Ice God Clan had been friends for generations, so she didn't have to worry, what she was really worried about was the Yan God Clan who had repeatedly provoked disputes in the Spirit Qi Continent for ten thousand years.
"Having said that, although the barren desert has a harsh climate, the Fire God Realm is not much better. The people of the Flame God Clan are here, although they can't summon the power of fire in the aura of heaven and earth, but the consumption rate of aura is no different from usual, and it is actually a line stronger than us. Luo Zhantian was still so indifferent, and he didn't seem to have the slightest worry.
"Brother Zhan Tian, in that case, why do you still look like you are in your chest, as if you don't have any worries?" Long Jingxue frowned slightly, knowing that she would not pretend to be a gesture with her understanding of Luo Zhantian, she asked again, "Could it be that Brother Zhan Tian has any countermeasures?"
