Chapter 63: Ruins

Even with the advice of Helan Lan'er, a professional who saves people from fire and water, it is inevitable that people will encounter these dangers when they finally arrive at the Yellow Sand Desert.

When I first got out of the city, some teams joined me from time to time.

Some of them were people on the mountain, and some of them were barbarian slaves recruited from some villages outside, and even after a while, several disciples of Master Yun Leng from Luohua Mountain came here, these people all came here knowing the orders of Master Yun Leng here, as for whether they knew what they were going to do, it was unknown.

Sanssouci thought to himself, if he really encountered danger, I was afraid that these disciples would really die. But looking at Master Yun Leng's appearance, there was no worried look, could it be that there was really no danger along the way.

But what he didn't expect was that this guess was broken that night.

That night, at nightfall, animal footprints appeared outside, and it is said that several sentry spies were also missing. However, no traces were found, so the people here were on guard, but that night, one of Master Yunleng's disciples wanted to go outside to relieve himself, but he never came back. Even the screams and voices were gone.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone checked and found that the number of people was less than a dozen, and there were actually two cultivators among them, which made their hearts a little vigilant, and a few barbarian slaves shouted for more money, but they were killed by an arrow and the rest of the people did not dare to speak again.

By morning, the sun was getting hotter.

Helan Lan'er suddenly said: "Everyone be careful, there is a strange ...... ahead"

Soon after, I saw strange monsters running across the desert. Helan Lan'er explained that these monsters are said to be the descendants of the grass mud horse, which is known as the mythical beast, but they only came to the desert and slowly began to evolve into their current appearance, some of which resemble sheep on the original grassland, and some camel substances. So it's also a landscape in the desert. However, these monsters, seemingly tame, are very dangerous creatures, and they will suddenly attack humans for some reason. This is also because the other party's appearance is too cute, and on the other hand, they have a talent of their own, which is charm.

Even a smart and witty person may encounter it, unable to speak, can only let him use his talent to attack, that scream can weaken people's physical strength, make people empty of fighting spirit, but physical strength declines, and in this desert, unable to walk, it means that will eventually become a dry corpse.

After these beasts walked over, they noticed that there were few people in the crowd, and they didn't know how they disappeared, and suddenly someone shouted, "Look."

When everyone looked at it, they realized that there were still some blood stains on the way of the group of monsters. It seems that people are what they eat, but this thing happened in front of everyone's eyes and no one noticed the slightest trace, so it was a little strange.

Finally, the destination is about to be reached, but this road is only under the acceleration of some cultivators, so that ordinary people can run for several days to reach this road.

When I came to my destination, I saw a piece of greenery.

In the middle of this desert, there is such an abnormal small oasis, which really makes Sanssouci a little curious. He sensed for a moment, there was a strange power in it, as if it was calling people into it. However, at this time, because of the strict management, no one took the initiative to come forward to play, but under the inspection of the remaining people, it was determined that there was no resurrection power here, and they relaxed. What they are worried about is the kind of demonic power that resurrects people, like the previous King of Zhongzhou, who can be resurrected after death because he is demonized.

When they got closer, they realized that it was a tree, but the vegetation in the desert was naturally different from the outside. All of them are mainly drought tolerant, but there is a strange kind of plant that can only be found in swamps, but it does not die in such an environment.

It is important to know that plants are difficult to survive in different ecological environments.

But here it is against this law, they are all ordinary plants, what is the power that has allowed them to survive until now and have not died due to drought, and Wuwuzi can't help but have some hair when he sees the situation in front of him, coupled with his own intuition, he suddenly feels that this trip will not be too smooth.

Sure enough, when they entered it, they found that there were traces of another group of people coming in the woods, and the people who came here later suddenly felt a little strange.

Why the traces of the people in front of them only went in and did not come out, this is a question, and the rest of the people are also hairy. However, if there is an opportunity, there will be no danger. They thought about it and relaxed. Let's take a look. Sanssouci thought to herself.

After that, it didn't go well, and one tenth of the people who died of poisonous insects along the way, there were a lot of people. Those soldiers are okay to say that they advance and retreat in a proper manner, so they die less, but the personnel of those idle forces, that is, some powerful people, and those with strong vigilance can survive to the end.

Unexpectedly, such a thing happened, and the group was much more cautious. But caution was useless, and in a few moments they heard screams, and Sanssouci thought to himself that there seemed to be a new danger.

"Demon spirits, demon spirits......"

What? Sanssouci was stunned for a moment, although the demons and demons of the two alien races would come to the Central Plains together to cause chaos, but they were two forces, and they rarely gathered together. So it's hard for ordinary people to see such a situation, and he also has some strange feelings in his heart. came to the front, and sure enough, many people were sucked dry of energy and died, which seems to be the ability of the demon spirit to absorb people's essence. But he always felt that something was wrong.

Until many more people died in the crowd, and even the purple-robed man died. His Wanlong Hall and his enemy, the Great Master of Qilin Mountain, also died here, and the rest were some powerful bandits, who were so strong that they could prevent unknown dangers, until in the end, they learned what this danger was, it turned out to be a kind of spirit incarnated by the dead predecessors.

Sanssouci said: "Don't panic, this kind of spirit can't hurt people, but if you are hostile to them, you will be attacked by them, if you are attacked, don't resist, just do it, because once you resist, you will see the creature you are most afraid of, so everyone will shout demon spirits, in fact, this is just some ghost ......"

Master Yun Leng lived for more than a hundred years and was well-informed, and he also recognized it at this time.

He explained to everyone that this is a kind of thing that only appears in the land of extreme yin, which is the essence of people after death, but their food is also essence, so when people don't take him seriously, they can only absorb the essence of plants and live, but when people are hostile to them, they will see that they have become their own terrifying creatures, and then the two sides fight, and the fear in their hearts will leak the essence, and the other party will slowly steal it, so in the end, they will become dry corpses.

After hearing the explanation, everyone relaxed. But when you count them again, the number of people has dropped by half. Even the three armies under the command of infantry, arrows, and cavalry died one-fifth, and the remaining bandits seemed to be a little more, but this time they encountered this kind of invisible enemy, and as a result, they usually did a lot of bad things, and there were more things to rob things and kill people, so they naturally became weak-hearted. As a result, half of them died.

The purple-robed man of Wanlong Hall and his opponent are also a small force in the city, and they don't want to be destroyed this time, if they had known that this was the result. I don't know if they'll be here.

Among the rest of the people, Master Yun Leng and the others were still there, but two more of his disciples died. There are still three disciples left......

The group continued on their way, and finally came to a place, which was a mountainous area.

But when these people arrived at this green mountain, they couldn't help but be stunned, but they saw a dozen or so people waiting there in front of them, and when Sanssoi saw that it was Liancheng and his team of twenty god cultivators, they didn't know what they had lost, and there were only about a dozen people left. It seems that his loss is not light.

"The lord of the castle used to be here, but you came too late......"

"Hmph, what if you have a map, it's useless to come here if you don't have the strength......"

Liancheng and the city lord went toe-for-tat, and the rest of the people were nervous, worried about exploding. However, Liancheng and the castle lord were not impulsive characters, and in the end they cooperated. One side goes out to explore the way, and the other side goes out on the map.

It turns out that there is an underground cave here. The goal is among them, and the group went inside, but what they didn't expect was that this underground cave was actually very deep and long, and it was only a few days of walking, and there were still some strange plants around them, until they gradually felt some heat underground.

"Where have we been?" Someone asked.

"Maybe it's under the volcano, I remember there's a volcano in the desert above, but it's far away......

Fortunately, the passage did not pass through the volcano, but on the way, you can also see that all the dead plants are left in the hot places. Occasionally, you will encounter a few fire-breathing beasts, all of which are only sparks, and they can be easily killed, of course, ordinary soldiers are useless, these monsters do not see sunlight underground, their eyes are very weak, but their sense of touch is sensitive, but because of the drilling, the carapace is very thick. But for the cultivators, it's food delivery. And the plants along the way, after they catch fire, they will naturally be extinguished without extinguishing. Before, they thought that the plants here were too cold, but now they think that the plants here are the best things, because when they get to the green space, they feel much cooler, and they are not so hot anymore.

The group continued to walk, and finally passed this hot land. The front has been restored to the appearance of a green space, and it looks eerie because of the constant lighting of the cultivators.

There seems to be a green mountain in the distance, like a giant beast coiled, which makes people frightened, and Sanssouci thinks that if it is really such a giant beast, I am afraid that he can only escape.

However, no matter how worried I was, I didn't find anything wrong, but I expected to encounter some small monsters, all of them with strange shapes, like deformed humans who were not completely demonized, but under the killing poke of these people in front of me, they still solved each other smoothly, so they continued to move forward.

Destroy these monsters, in this green sea, gradually there will be no crisis, Sanssouci thought, maybe it is because of this behemoth, it is the biggest overlord in this area, although this time the people in the city suffered huge losses, but in the end they still subdued the other party.

A group of people checked the loss, only to find that their own people and horses are very heavy losses, the minions below the Wanlong Hall have some good lives, but some of the bandits who live on the mountain because of the unfamiliarity with the terrain here, the result is heavy casualties, someone saw their old rival, that big boss, at that time to come forward to fight with him, but let the city lord persuade him.

After all, this is on the way forward, and it would be funny to start a fight before you reach the place.

So the rest of the people saw this example and did not make any more trouble, and when it was almost evening, the group began to camp on the sand, which was inconvenient for camping, you must know that it was too hot on the ground, but if you had brought a tent, it would not be even hotter, but if you did not do so, the night would be even more sad. Because the temperature difference here is large at night, and it is too hot during the day, it is really difficult to endure.

And there are countless poisonous insects here, if you sleep alone in the open air, you will find yourself dead.

But so many reminders and precautions before still had no effect at night. That night, when Sanssouci was cultivating in the tent outside, his divine sense felt a burst of malice, to say that in the cultivators, because he was a member of the law system, the divine consciousness of the person who cultivated the spell was particularly sensitive, and he could sense things that ordinary people could not notice, and he could say and listen to more information than ordinary people would get. And more importantly, he has the ability to warn of danger, which is an intuition, or rather, this is an ability, but there is no way to control it himself, maybe one day in the future, he can control this intuition by himself, but he still can't do it now.

However, just to remind yourself of the dangers you may encounter, this function is enough.

Thinking of this, he was worried that the city lord's heart was immortal, and he wanted to secretly protect himself, so he quietly guarded himself, but at this moment, he heard the rustling sound, and listened carefully, there was clearly the sound of hard objects rubbing against each other, as if grinding teeth, he felt strange in his heart, what is this, suddenly stunned, and thought of one thing, but he heard before that there will be some sand scorpions under the yellow sand, but this kind of creature is running around, Ordinary people really can't meet here, some people have not encountered once in a few years on the yellow sand, but some people have encountered it just once. I have to say that sometimes luck is really important. Sanssouci thought that she was lucky, but she didn't expect that she would encounter this kind of poisonous insect so soon......

I only heard someone screaming, and then it turned into a scream, and the cultivators hurriedly flew out, releasing spells one by one to destroy these sand scorpions, and Sanssouci himself also made an ice shield to guard against these attacks, and from time to time released flame balls to eliminate those sand scorpions, but at this moment he heard a little abnormal wind.

Shout......

An arrow slashed through his ear.

Could it be that someone took advantage of the situation to plot against himself, but he felt that something was wrong, if someone was plotting against himself, but such an attack would not have much effect on himself. It's also impossible to think about. But if this is not the case, why can I feel the arrival of the arrow, but I don't feel the intuitive prompt, this thing is a little strange.

Only then did he realize that something was wrong, he was in a fantasy world.

If there are sand scorpions in the desert above, it would be fine, but how could there be such a creature here, this is a cold and damp place, and it is not the environment that sand scorpions like at all. Thinking of this, he hurriedly used the spell, so he went out of here smoothly anytime and anywhere, only to find that a lot of people were throwing arrows indiscriminately, it turned out that they were also in the illusion, so they shot indiscriminately. But apparently it was their companions who died, and some of the cultivators did not lose, they supported their own defenses in the illusion, and they naturally defended themselves outside, so there was no danger, but after this incident, the soldiers died and wounded, and the remaining people only survived with some abilities......

Fortunately, in the end, everything was resolved smoothly, and there were cultivators like Sanssouci who were awake quickly, combined with several other cultivators who woke up one after another, they successfully controlled these people, and they gradually woke up under the effect of spells, and then a wail sounded.

Some people stabbed their good brothers to death. Some people broke the chrysanthemums of their good comrades-in-arms, and some people even accidentally cut their legs......

All of them look lifeless, which makes people feel pity in their hearts, but no one can give up when they come here, and after the city lord has boosted his morale below, he depicts a bright prospect of moving forward, so the rest of the people buried the corpses here in place with a spell.

People who live in the desert do not have the habit of erecting monuments. Because in the quicksand, the inscription is not only easy to wear out, but also the terrain on the desert is easy to change, and the monument is erected, and it will not be found in less than a year.

After this, an hour had passed at the end of the day, and suddenly someone cried out, "Look, what is there?" ”

When everyone looked at it, they found that it was clearly a huge city, and they had not paid attention to it before, but at this time they found that the thing wrapped in greenery was clearly the wall of the city.
