Chapter 0064: Huangsha Ridge
The boundless scorching sun was exposing the vast desert, and in this uninhabited area, a young man in a black robe was struggling to move forward.
It wasn't until three days later, not far in front of Chu Yun, that he saw a huge desert oasis.
At this time, in the oasis, Chu Yun noticed that there were many bloodstained soldiers lying in it, looking like their lives were in danger.
"Walked for three days... I finally saw the living. Chu Yun looked at the oasis in front of him and sighed, then strolled over.
This desert is warm on the day and cold at night, and it is the same as the ice and fire refining body that Chu Yun came into contact with at the beginning.
Moving all the way, when Chu Yun finally walked to the oasis in front of him, his body trembled slightly.
"Illusion? This is who is how boring..."
Chu Yun looked at the scenery in front of him in disbelief, and then shook his head helplessly.
"To set up a fantasy in a place like this... I'm happy in vain. Chu Yun shook his head with some dissatisfaction, you must know that in such a barren desert that has no one all year round, the effect of this illusion is almost minimal.
Chu Yun sighed secretly and walked straight through this 'oasis', and then he saw that in front of him, there was still an endless barren desert.
He continued to walk for ten days in a row, and by the tenth day, Chu Yun's pace had become much slower.
"Huh?"
Chu Yun's body paused, because he saw a small town emerge not far away.
"It's finally coming to an end..."Chu Yun said slowly as he looked at the town in front of him.
"Let's hope it's not a fantasy. Chu Yun said, already walking towards the town.
After a short time, in front of Chu Yun, a town full of gunpowder smoke appeared.
As soon as he entered the town, he noticed that the crowd passing through the city was all pale men, and all of them were thin and emaciated.
"Looks like there was a war here..."
Chu Yun said, looking at the passing crowd, and slowly walked towards the town.
War may not be new to mortal dust, because even within the territory of Hezhou, small-scale wars occasionally break out.
"Your Excellency... Okay, okay, give me something to eat. ”
Just as Chu Yun walked to the corner of an alley, he saw a man covered in tatters pleading and crying in front of a white-haired old man.
"Get out, don't come to our shop in the future! we don't have anything to eat for you!" said the white-haired old man, kicking the man a few times, then quickly turning around and returning to his shop.
Chu Yun walked past the man who was lying on the ground and shook his head slightly.
This is true of all towns and cities that are involved in the war, and there is smoke everywhere.
Walking all the way, it was not until he reached the back of the city that Chu Yun's face showed a solemnity.
This Yellow Sand City was built in the endless desert...
"Ahem... Little brother, are you from Huangshaling?"
Just as Chu Yun shook his head helplessly, a weak man walked over slowly with a broken bowl in his hand.
When Chu Yun saw this man, he could obviously feel a cold-blooded murderous aura on him, but looking at his appearance, it didn't match it.
"Is Huangshaling the desert?" Chu Yun said suspiciously.
"That's right, that desert is Huangshaling, and it is also the symbol of our Shazhou. The frail man said slowly.
"Shazhou... No wonder it's desert everywhere. Chu Yun nodded, when he came out of the Suogu tribe, he felt that this should be the southernmost Shazhou in the Southern Regions.
It can be because Shazhou is too far away from Hezhou, and Chu Yun is not easy to judge for a while.
"It seems that the Endless Abyss teleported me far away..."
When Chu Yun learned that this was Shazhou, he sighed helplessly, and then asked the weak man in front of him, "Are you from this Yellow Sand City?"
"Hehe, I'm ashamed to say that I am an abandoned soldier below. The frail man said, a grief flashing in his eyes.
"Soldiers?"
Hearing this, Chu Yun looked the latter up and down, and nodded thoughtfully, no wonder in him, Chu Yun could feel a strong murderous aura, after all, he was a person who had experienced a hundred battles, how could there be less blood in his hands.
"I don't know what you did when you stopped me?" Chu Yun said, looking at the man in front of him.
"Because when my brother was a child when he entered Yellow Sand City, I noticed you, and the place you came from was a boundless desert, and even those of us who have been fighting on the battlefield for many years have never been there. The frail man said, his expression showed a hint of sadness, and he asked slowly, "I don't know if the little brother saw our army when he was in Huangshaling?"
"Army?I've seen it once, but it's just an illusion, and I don't know who left the spell here. As soon as Chu Yun thought of this, he was a little helpless.
"Your Excellency is talking about a mirage?"
"Mirage? Isn't it a fantasy? Chu Yun wondered.
"That's just a natural phenomenon in our Huangsha Ridge, but since Your Excellency can see a mirage, then it means that you must be in the depths of Huangsha Ridge. It's just that I wonder what the little brothers were like when they saw the army?"
"There were heavy casualties. ”
As soon as Chu Yun said it, he saw that the man in front of him had a clean face.
"Looks like they did fail... I knew how the strength of an army alone could compete with the enlightened giant scorpion. ”
"Giant Scorpion, could it be a spirit bird?" Chu Yun said with some incredulity when he heard this, it stands to reason that generally civilized spirit birds rarely appear in mortal dust.
"That's right, that giant scorpion is dozens of zhang long, it should be a legendary spirit bird, but for some reason, it suddenly appeared in the Huangsha Ridge a year ago, and after every battle, it frequently cut off our way, causing Yan Zòng's losses. In the end, with the unanimous consent of everyone, it was decided to kill this teasing. ”
"And I... Because he was wounded in a battle with the people of a hostile territory some time ago, and was finally banished here...", the frail man said, a little reproachful, if it weren't for this reason, he would definitely fight with his own army.
"You know where the spirit bird is, take me there. Chu Yun said slowly, the spirit bird only has a spirit word, which means that it at least has the strength of the innate realm, which can verify Chu Yun's penance in the past year.
"It's... It's—" The man nodded his head repeatedly.
When he saw Chu Yun at the gate of Huangsha City, he knew that the other party had an extraordinary background, and now it seems that this is indeed the case, as long as it is the rumored monk, there is no one who is not excited when he hears the spirit bird.
Along the way, Chu Yun gradually chatted with the weak man, knowing that the other party's name was Zhao Han, a local soldier in Shazhou.
"Little brother, I see that you are carrying a long sword, and your weapons are extraordinary, I think you should be a cultivator. After Zhao Han followed Chu Yun out of the city, he asked carefully.
"Yes, I am a monk from Youming Valley in Hezhou. Chu Yun nodded, there was nothing to hide.
"What? I heard that Hezhou has been in turmoil recently, and it is said that many cultivation sects have perished..."Zhao Han heard this, and said slowly, looking at Chu Yun unbelievably.
Chu Yun was completely stunned when he heard Zhao Han say this.
Are all the sects destroyed?
You must know that in Hezhou, even the weakest cultivator sect must have a master of the Spirit Transformation Realm in charge, how can it be said that if you perish, you will perish.
"You said that many of the cultivator sects in Hezhou have perished, when did this happen, can there be Youming Valley among those perished sects?" Chu Yun asked again and again.
"It was about a year ago, I don't know the specifics, but the sects that perished don't seem to be very strong. Zhao Han explained.
When Chu Yun heard this, he gradually fell into deep thought...
"It seems that after dealing with this matter, we will rush back to Hezhou immediately. Chu Yun thought in his heart.
After walking in the desert for about a day, the two came to an oasis, but this time it was not a fantasy, but a real one.
"Little brother, this should be the oasis you mentioned earlier, and the place where the spirit bird is located is not far from here, should we rest here for a while?" Zhao Han said, looking around, but there was no half a figure around except for bloodstains.
"Well, we're just resting for a while. Chu Yun nodded.
And at this moment, far away from the oasis, in a huge cave, countless dead bodies were everywhere, and they all looked hideous, and the blood on their bodies had already dried up.
And right next to this group of corpses, a huge purple-tailed black scorpion was lying on its side with a peaceful face, and it was not until Chu Yun and Zhao Han appeared on the oasis that it suddenly moved.
"Ahh
The scorpion's tongue has a thick liquid flowing from it, and when it falls into the burrow, it corrodes down the burrow.
Then it slowly opened its eyes, and its massive body crawled slowly above the hole.
......
At the same time, Chu Yun, who was originally meditating and pranayama in the oasis, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the ground not far away.
"What's wrong, little brother?"
After Zhao Han followed the oasis to look around, he came back and saw Chu Yun's nervous face, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"Stand back, if nothing else, the spirit bird you spoke of will soon strike. Chu Yun said, holding the long sword behind his back tightly in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face.
Now is the time to test his true strength.
"Okay, little brother, then you should be careful. Hearing this, Zhao Han's body retreated to a hidden place in the oasis, and he could just see the direction of Chu Yun's side.
After a few breaths, Mo Yoo saw a violent shaking suddenly come from the ground of the otherwise quiet oasis.
And the ground under Chu Yun's feet gradually began to break, and countless cracks suddenly appeared with a loud shaking sound.
"Boom!"
The ground cracked, Chu Yun jumped aside, and at Chu Yun's feet, a huge scorpion with a purple tail and crimson appeared.
