Chapter 554: Sixteen
After nine hours of darkness, almost every second, a round of the sun was flying high, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the scorching heat was rising, which was also a rolling heat wave set off in this desert sea world.
The yellow sand is all over the sky, and that land full of life, between this boundless blood, seems to have lost the source of vitality, strange flowers and plants, ancient trees are towering, all of which are visible to the naked eye withering.
And as this withering continued, the boundless tide of sand-tailed scorpions, almost in a few breaths, completely submerged this oasis that should not belong to the barren desert sea.
Until the last trace of vitality is extinguished, it is as if the scene has reappeared, without the existence of foreign enemies, each sand-tailed scorpion has returned to its original wisdom and returned to the existence of a single creature.
All the madness, all the dullness, there is no trace of it.
Among them, two silver-white sand-tailed scorpions, one after the other, swaggered across the sky, heading towards the depths of the unknown desert sea.
And such an abnormality did not cause the slightest wave in this desert sea, and that fluctuation of will did not have the slightest reaction.
A few days passed quietly.
On this day, the two silver-white sand-tailed scorpions, which had been flying in the sky for several days, finally landed on a sand dune one after the other.
Compared with this vast desert sea, this piece of sand dunes does not seem to have changed in the slightest.
In the silver-white sand-tailed scorpion's body, Chu Mu was holding a gray-white compass, and his expression was already clearly dignified.
For a few days, without the obstacle of the beast tide, under the single-minded hurry, the speed is naturally not slow.
In just a few days, these two silver-white sand-tailed scorpions have crossed this desert sea for more than 10,000 miles.
And this more than 10,000 miles of leaps, the scenery seen is no different from the beginning, and the scene in front of you.
Everywhere you look, there is a piece of yellow sand.
In the sea of sand, the sand-tailed scorpion is still endless, and there is no living existence other than the sand-tailed scorpion.
The whole desert sea is almost everywhere and weird.
To put it simply, how did the vast desert sea, the endless sand-tailed scorpions, survive without the existence of any other non-sand-tailed scorpions?
High-level demon beasts may not need to rely on blood food, and they can meet the needs of the demon body by swallowing aura, but low-level demon beasts, if they have no blood food at all, it is obviously difficult to meet the needs of survival just by swallowing aura.
This is no different from that of an immortal cultivator.
If an immortal cultivator wants to completely open up the valley, he must not eat the essence of the five grains and meat, and at least have the cultivation of the foundation realm.
Some special beings who rely on blood food to cultivate, and some even reach the Jindan realm, but it is difficult to completely clear the valley.
The desert sea is boundless, and the sand-tailed scorpions are endless, and the vast majority of them are first-order and second-order existences.
These sand-tailed scorpions seem to be living beings, but in fact, they are like puppets of dead things, not preying on each other, nor seeing any blood food entrances, wandering in this vast desert sea, which is not strange.
And......
Chu Mu looked down at the gray-white compass in his hand, which was similar to the five-element compass that was conceived and designed.
The difference is only that the five-element compass is to detect and monitor spatial fluctuations.
And this compass, called "Fixing the Spirit", is to track the fluctuations of aura.
Compared with detecting spatial fluctuations, just tracking the fluctuations of aura, the difficulty of the two is obviously not at the same level.
After all, Reiki is everywhere, and under normal conditions, it is basically impossible for Reiki to fluctuate.
Once the aura fluctuation is generated, it is either the natural creation of heaven and earth, such as spiritual veins, such as mineral veins, such as magma and fire.
Or even the monk's cultivation and fighting methods will also produce corresponding aura fluctuations.
And any slightest fluctuation, no matter how far away the distance is between the heaven and earth where the aura is calm, will inevitably produce a corresponding chain reaction in the environment of the aura.
Through this chain reaction, it is undoubtedly easy to detect the corresponding aura fluctuations, and if the distance is close, even through the degree of aura fluctuations and anomalies, the cause of the aura fluctuations can be determined.
As early as the beginning of that year, when he went to the Hanhai Immortal Cultivation Realm and went to sea to hunt demons, he refined a similar detection treasure, and then with the refinement of refining skills, just like his phantom god face, there were many improvements.
The Five Elements Compass can basically only monitor spatial fluctuations within a radius of several miles, while this Fixing Compass, its monitoring range is expanded to a radius of hundreds of miles, if the detection accuracy is not considered, this distance can even be expanded to nearly a thousand miles or so.
And here, this compass, which had been silent in his storage space for a long time, undoubtedly played a role again.
Above the pale gray compass, it is as clear as a mirror, as if it encompasses this desert.
The route that spans thousands of miles is also reflected on the compass.
It's just that this route is not a straight cross, but a twist and turn, as if it is deliberately bypassing something halfway.
And that's exactly what happened.
After all, Qin Zhaoxue's appearance undoubtedly means that this strange sea of sand is by no means as recorded, and every monk entering this relic cave is a different trial level.
This desert sea obviously broke this law.
And in the past few days, through this spirit compass, it seems to have once again confirmed this fact.
At this time, on the crystal clear sand sea of the compass, the route spanning thousands of miles, every bend in every bend, was marked with one, or several clearly visible black dots.
Each black dot means an abnormal aura fluctuation detected by the firing compass.
According to the nature of the aura fluctuations detected by the compass, without exception, they were all obviously the aura fluctuations set off by the sand-tailed scorpion tide, and a considerable part of them could even clearly detect the monk's mana fluctuations.
Obviously, although I don't know what the reason is, except for Qin Zhaoxue, there are not a few other monks who have entered this trial in the Sand Sea.
In just a few days, what he noticed alone was more than ten fingers.
In the case of disguised as a sand-tailed scorpion to hide from the sky and the sea, once this abnormal fluctuation is detected, it is naturally impossible to avoid it and avoid it.
Otherwise, if they get close to a certain distance, what awaits them is probably the manipulation of the will, and they will not be able to help themselves again.
Airplanes......
At this moment, the compass trembled suddenly, and then, above the crystal clear compass mirror, just in front of them, another extremely clear black spot appeared.
"...... Sixteen. ”
Chu Mu frowned slightly, and then, he glanced ahead, the yellow sand was rolling, and vaguely, it could be seen that all the sand-tailed scorpions moving around him were converging towards the place where the aura fluctuations were.
Judging from the situation he summarized across thousands of miles, once outsiders appear in a certain place, the sand-tailed scorpions that are active within at least three or four hundred miles around will gather with them.
Eventually, an endless tide of beasts was formed, which never stopped.
It's just that even now, he doesn't understand, what is the meaning of this Desert Sea trial?
An endless tide of beasts?
Do you want to destroy the source of the manipulative sand-tailed scorpion?
But the problem is that under this endless tide of beasts, it is extremely difficult for any monk to protect himself, let alone search for the ultimate source.
Even though he has traveled thousands of miles in such a secret, he has not found any useful clues.
As far as the eye can see, apart from the desert, it is still a desert, except for the sand-tailed scorpion, it is still a sand-tailed scorpion, it is like copying and pasting, endless, boundless.
The foreign monks encountered, without exception, were all struggling under this boundless beast tide, seeking a glimmer of life.
As for that fluctuation of will, he could clearly perceive it, but where the source was, no matter how he tried all kinds of methods, it was difficult to get a glimpse of it.
This desert sea is like a ...... Cage?
Chu Mu seemed to feel something, and looked up at the sky.
The scorching sun hangs high, a big day, incomparably hot, but incomparably illusory.
He cultivates the true fire of the Great Day, and his perception of the existence of the Great Sun can be said to be from the sensitivity of the origin.
But on this round of the Great Sun, he didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of the breath that belonged to the Great Sun......
