The sea of yellow sand at noon, the sun is shining, and the heat is unbearable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In a large bush of sea buckthorn, there was a young man, dressed in fur clothes, lying in it. On his forehead, drops of sweat slipped down quietly. Unbeknownst to him, he fell to the ground with one hand and a short spear in the other, his eyes fixed on a huge cactus outside the sea buckthorn bushes.

It is located in the sea of yellow sand and has penetrated deep into the hinterland of the desert. The heat is unbearable. The yellow sand does not accumulate water, and the midday sun evaporates almost all the water. The sea buckthorn bushes don't block much sunlight, and moreover, they emit an unpleasant smell.

Coupled with the scorching heat, the most endurable and toughest desert creatures are reluctant to approach here.

However, there are always exceptions.

Rainbow flowers often appear on the edge of this hated sea buckthorn bush, which is the beautiful flower that the cactus is about to bloom when the boy stares. Rainbow flowers are colorful and have a pleasant aroma, especially for desert creatures, which have a huge appeal.

However, its flowering period is very short, less than half an hour. One of these cacti can live for decades, but it only blooms once before it dies. Moreover, it will only be open at noon, when the weather is clear.

When the flowers bloom, all kinds of desert creatures in the vicinity will run wildly in the direction of the rainbow flowers, and then tear each other apart. Even if you have the last laugh, the creature that devours the rainbow flower will have a moment of powerlessness.

If you wait here in advance, you can easily hunt a large number of prey.

Legend has it that sometimes there are even monsters that are attracted to it. If you hunt one end, it is enough to make the people in the desert have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.

Of course, this kind of opportunity is something that can be encountered but not sought.

Not to mention anything else, the cactus that gives birth to rainbow flowers is no different from ordinary cacti. After flowering, the winning creature will eat almost all of its defeated men, even the hardest carapace.

What's more, the chance of a demon beast appearing is even smaller than negligible.

In other words, almost no one will encounter such an opportunity.

Even if you encounter it, you can't escape being devoured by desert creatures, let alone demon beasts.

Only a very small number of families carefully grasp this opportunity.

However, even the members of these families will inevitably die in the process of pursuing opportunities.

Thinking of this, the young man sighed silently in his heart.

His name is Hu Jin and he is 10 years old this year. The ancestors also used to be wide, and when they were at their strongest, they ruled over more than a dozen large and small oases. But by his parents' generation, it had been in decline for hundreds of years. His parents, too, died when he was eight years old, in the process of seeking opportunity.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly smelled a strange aroma. Hu Jin was startled, and hurriedly bit the pill hidden between his teeth in advance. Then, let out a long breath gently.

This is one of the most dangerous moments in the search for opportunity.

The stench of sea buckthorn bushes can discourage desert creatures.

However, it is only when mixed with the scent of rainbow flowers that it transforms into a deadly toxin.

If you don't bite through the pre-prepared pill in time and swallow it, you will be quickly poisoned.

This is also the reason why Hu Jin dared to hide in the sea buckthorn bushes, here, as long as he does not take the initiative to attack, no desert creatures will risk death to attack him.

However, the timing of swallowing the antidote must be grasped just right. If swallowed too early, the antidote will be like a poison, and it can also kill people.

It's too late, once he gets drunk with the scent of rainbow flowers, even if he is lucky enough not to die, he will lose himself and rush out to grab the rainbow flowers with the desert creatures. That is certain death.

This antidote has powerful side effects, and the moment he takes it, Hu Jin is like falling into an ice cellar. If it weren't for the thick leather coat, he would have froze by this time.

In less than half an hour, desert creatures pounced on the rainbow flowers. In the vicinity of the giant cactus, they fought for their lives without fear of death, and died one by one around the cactus.

Among them, there are snakes, insects, rats and ants, sand foxes, sand wolves, and even rare man-eating plants.

When Hu Jin thought that the sand wolf who lost a front leg in the fight would have the last laugh. A demon beast appeared, a desert thorn beast.

Seriously, Hu Jin felt that it was very similar to a hedgehog on the earth, but it was larger, the size of an adult fat pig.

The Desert Thorn Beast is full of treasures. Needless to say, its spikes are the best rough embryos for blowing arrows. The skin can be used as a nail, and the claws can be used as a dagger, and the meat is extremely delicious. Even in the manure, the best alloys can be screened. It was possible to make magic weapons, and the immortals would pay ten times the price of gold to buy them.

Not to mention, he has the potential to obtain the crystal nucleus of the sea buckthorn. As long as a green bean is the size of a green bean, he can move to an oasis with sweet water and enjoy it for the rest of his life.

Normally, no one would dare to provoke the sea buckthorn beast. Not to mention Hu Jin, even the most powerful hunter within a radius of a hundred miles is not its opponent.

However, after swallowing a rainbow flower, it will have a momentary wandering mind. At that point, the spikes on the top of its head will lie around, revealing a piece of scalp the size of a baby's palm.

Hu Jin only needed to throw the short spear in his hand and accurately hit the scalp to kill it.

The sand wolf, with a broken leg, was far from being a match for the sea buckthorn, but it still howled and rushed towards this final contender. The seabuckthorn just blew on it, and the sand wolf burst into flames, quickly burning into a piece of black coal.

It was about to leap up and devour the rainbow flowers when a piercing screech swept overhead, far beyond the oasis, and disappeared without a trace.

When the sea buckthorn beast looked up, it saw only a white light and a yellow light, which swept across the sky and disappeared. Hu Jin didn't see anything more.

The seabuckthorn seemed a little uneasy, but after steady, it set its sights on the rainbow flowers.

Both it and Hu Jin had already seen that after a few breaths, the rainbow flowers would wither and become useless.

At this moment, there was a soft snap, and an object fell from the sky, landing not far from the sea buckthorn.

The sea buckthorn beast subconsciously turned its head to take a look, and suddenly couldn't retract its eyes.

As you can see, it's already drooling. Hu Jin was stunned, he looked at the rainbow flower, the beautiful flower was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the next second, it would wither.

If he could, Hu Jin even wanted to pluck the seven-colored flowers and put them into the mouth of the sea buckthorn beast.

However, the sea buckthorn howled wildly and leaped to the other side.

Hu Jin closed his eyes in annoyance, everything was messed up.

If the sea buckthorn beast doesn't devour the rainbow flower, he can't kill it. These once-in-a-decade opportunities will be lost in vain.

Based on his two-year experience, this meant that he would hardly ever leave the pitifully small oasis in his life. The fate that awaits him is either starvation or death.

It is then air-dried, and finally turned into a part of the countless sand and dust in the Yellow Sand Sea.

If he is unlucky, when night falls, the seabuckthorn beast has not gone far, he can only make a difficult choice between freezing to death and being eaten by the seabuckthorn beast.

At this moment, a pig-killing scream sounded.

Hu Jin shuddered, it was the cry of the sea buckthorn beast. Could it be that another demon beast is coming?

He opened his eyes suddenly, and saw a beautiful woman appear above the sea buckthorn beast. Countless points of light shot out with the woman as the center, stabbing at the sea buckthorn beast.

The seabuckthorn let out a terrible howl.

This Mu made Hu Jin stunned.

Maybe after a moment, maybe after a long time, the woman's figure faded and disappeared.

Only then did Hu Jin discover that the sea buckthorn beast had fallen in a pool of blood and was too dead to die.

He waited a little longer, but didn't notice anything unusual, and then cautiously crawled out of the sea buckthorn bushes. Take off your leather jacket and put it in your backpack.

After a while, he also saw something that made the sea buckthorn beast salivate, and would rather give up the rainbow flowers to get it.

It was a small pouch, the size of an adult's palm. There is a delicate loop closure that can be easily fastened to the waistband.

Of course, that was just his guess, and he didn't dare touch it.

After all, even the Sea Buckthorn Beast died because of that thing.

He just picked up the yellow sand, stood on the limelight, and gently raised it, letting the yellow sand fall far onto the small bag and cover it. In the sand dunes beside him, he dug a few ditches with short spears. In this way, the wind will continue to raise fine sand to cover the little bag.

Although the speed is not as fast as he did on his own, it is better to last, and more importantly, to be safe.

Then, he quickly cleaned up the scene.

Due to the appearance of the sea buckthorn beast, those ordinary desert creatures, Hu Jin basically didn't move, just dug a pit and buried the sand wolf.

Although the flesh of the sea buckthorn beast had been completely damaged, the rest of the materials still filled the backpack, and Hu Jin even had to throw his leather coat into the sea buckthorn bush. Naturally, there was no way to pack up the rest of the loot.

After walking for more than an hour, Hu Jin returned to the small oasis where he lived. Along the way, he was lucky not to run into a single person.

At first, he thought that he had chosen the way home in the middle of nowhere, avoiding people who went out hunting.

But as soon as he entered the village, he found that it was not the case at all.

The oasis was so quiet, almost like no one. He hurried home, closed the door, and turned back to the bedside, only to see a man standing in the middle of the room.

He rubbed his eyes, only to realize that it was not a hallucination.

The man was of upper-average height, richly dressed, and dressed a lot, but showed no signs of sweating at all. The most important thing is that his hands and face do not look like they are invaded by wind and sand at all.

Thinking of the feeling after entering the oasis, for a moment, a thought flashed through Hu Jin's mind. He didn't even untie his backpack, so he knelt on the ground: "Boy Hu Jin, I've seen the Immortal Master." ā€

The man nodded, shook his head again, and said with a smile: "I'm not an immortal, I'm just here today to ask you, have you found anything unusual at noon?"

After that, it was like a dream. He flew to the place where the bag was found, and returned to his home in the clouds. Before and after less than a pillar of incense.

The small bag was naturally taken away by the immortal master, and even the materials on the pile of sea buckthorn beasts were also taken away.

In exchange, all I got was a booklet and a wooden sign.

However, Hu Jin looked at those two things and was excited.

He was now a registered disciple of the Five Elements Sect, and the wooden tablet was his identification. That booklet is the introductory exercise "Xuan Xuan Zhen Jing".

Hu Jin didn't feel that he was losing at all. The materials of the sea buckthorn beast, but in exchange for his life, he has no worries about food and clothing, although the small bag is good, he doesn't even dare to take it.

Now, the immortal master has tested him, he has a spiritual root, and he has also obtained the introductory exercises, and the identity of a registered disciple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect.

A new path appeared before him.
