20demayo Chapter 149 Yansha Desert
Chapter 149 Yansha Desert
The world of cultivation is a place where strength matters, not to mention in secret realms with numerous treasures, where fighting and killing among cultivators is not uncommon.
After all, the magical herb moved people's hearts. Within two days, murders and treasure robberies began to happen frequently inside and outside the Fog Valley.
Even the Jindan stage cultivators joined in.
Lin Xia was naturally not immune, but those cultivators were unable to gain any advantage from Lin Xia.
Lin Xia's cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building, and he is just one step away from the golden elixir stage. Due to his chaotic spiritual roots, and the blessing of the "Hunyuan Likong Sword Technique" and talismans, his current spiritual power has no problem dealing with a golden elixir early stage cultivator, and he can even barely cope with a golden elixir middle stage cultivator.
After staying in the Fog Valley for nearly half a month, Lin Xia prepared to go to the Yanshi Volcano.
……
The closer you get to the Yanshi Volcano, the sparser the surrounding vegetation becomes, until there is no grass at all.
This is normal, but it is not so friendly to Ling Cang. After all, Ling Cang is an ice-type spirit beast and really doesn't like such a dry and hot environment.
As soon as Lin Xia set foot on the desert, Ling Cang stayed in the Qinglin space and was unwilling to come out. However, Uncle Shu and Xiaochu were not affected at all. They just felt bored with the endless Yansha Desert.
As for little brother Lei, it’s not time for him to appear yet.
According to the records on the map, the Yansha Desert was formed by the eruption of the Yanshi volcano and did not exist in the Yanhuo Secret Realm. Therefore, its area has been gradually expanding.
But it's basically the same. You can always reach Yanshi Volcano by following the direction of the desert.
Compared with other areas, the Yansha Desert is truly vast and the view is extremely wide.
Perhaps because there are few spiritual plants growing there, the spiritual energy in the Yansha Desert is not as abundant as in other areas.
Moreover, because it is close to the Yanshi Volcano, the temperature here is also very high, and people cannot stand the heat. Even though Lin Xia has spiritual power to protect his body, he can still feel the pervasive heat.
On the other hand, Uncle Rat and Xiaochu, who were each occupying one of Lin Xia's shoulders, were fine. Even Uncle Rat, who had fur, looked calm, as if he couldn't feel the heat in the air.
The physique of this divine beast is really extraordinary. Father Tiandao is really partial to it.
However, Lin Xia was not particularly envious (not at all). After all, Uncle Shu and Xiaochu suffered thunder tribulations when they were born, and Lin Xia had been practicing in the late stage of foundation building for several years, but had not yet encountered the golden elixir thunder tribulation.
At the same time, this also made Lin Xia, who had been complacent about his small progress in physical training, feel a sense of crisis. If he couldn't even handle this little bit of heat, how could he withstand the Jindan lightning tribulation later?!
When a cultivator enters the Golden Core stage, he can not only practice fasting, but also become immune to cold and heat. The most important thing is that Su Linghan is still waiting for her, so Lin Xia must speed up the progress of body refining. Only success is allowed in advancing to the Golden Core stage, and failure is not allowed.
……
Perhaps because it is mixed with volcanic ash, the sand in the Yansha Desert is finer and softer than ordinary sand. Every step is very strenuous, but the sound is very small, almost non-existent.
The calmer it is, the weirder it seems.
Since entering this desert, I haven't seen a single monster, let alone a cultivator. This is really unreasonable.
Logically speaking, knowing that there is the Yanshi Volcano in the Yanhuo Secret Realm, one should be able to guess the location of the heavenly fire with just a careful thought. It is impossible that there are no cultivators who are indifferent. However, Lin Xia walked in the Yansha Desert for two days and did not see a single person.
On this day, the sand in front finally became rough and even began to contain some gravel.
From time to time, you can pick up a few pieces of Yanshi ore, which is unique to the Yanhuo Secret Realm, in the rubble. This kind of ore can be used as flint. One piece can be used for a long time and is very popular among some low-level cultivators who do not have fire spiritual roots.
The peace that Lin Xia felt after entering the Yansha Desert was finally broken.
"Master, there is movement ahead." When Uncle Rat's voice sounded, Lin Xia also saw clearly the things that were moving freely among the sand and rocks. They were golden pythons.
However, this python is a fifth-level monster - the fire-loving python. It most often appears in volcanic craters, feeds on flames, and rarely leaves the volcano. For some reason, they all appear in this Yansha Desert?
The fire-loving python moved at a high speed among the sand and rocks. Its golden scales looked like flowing gold, and flames emerged from time to time. However, it looked hurried, as if it was running for its life.
This scene is so familiar that it’s hard to describe.
There were quite a few bloodthirsty pythons running towards her. Lin Xia was startled before she had time to think about it. A fifth-level monster was already a cross-level challenge for her, and it would be really tricky to deal with so many of them.
"Master, there seems to be something wrong with these fire-loving pythons. The aura of fire on them is too strong." At this moment, Uncle Rat reminded in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of? It's definitely not as strong as my flame!" Xiaochu, who had been wrapped around Lin Xia's wrist since the fire-loving python appeared, also spoke at this time, with a very proud tone.
Lin Xia looked carefully and found that it was just as Uncle Rat said. These fire-loving pythons were still fifth-level monsters, but the flames that came out of their bodies from time to time seemed to have been added with some catalyst, and were abnormally strong.
At this moment, the speeding fire-loving pythons also discovered Lin Xia's presence and gradually slowed down. The huge fire-loving python in the lead raised its head, spit out its tongue, and made a "hissing" sound.
In an instant, all the fire-loving pythons stopped moving.
In just a few breaths, they had surrounded Lin Xia.
These fire-loving pythons seemed to be extremely angry, and they looked at Lin Xia with bloodthirsty and ruthless eyes. Even the flames that occasionally emerged from their bodies burned even more vigorously.
Suddenly, the largest fire-loving python launched an attack. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards Lin Xia. Its two sharp fangs emitted a cold light.
Lin Xia dodged the fatal blow by moving sideways, and at the same time took two quick steps forward, thrusting the magic sword in his hand towards the vital point of the fire-eating python.
However, the fire-eating python reacted extremely quickly, and Lin Xia's spiritual sword could not get close to the fire-eating python at all.
At the same time, the rest of the fire-loving pythons also moved, and scorching flames shot out from between their scales and attacked Lin Xia.
While Lin Xia raised the spiritual power shield, he took out the suona Xuanyin.
I've had the suona for quite some time, but I've never used it before. This is a good opportunity to give it a try.
If you ask what kind of music Lin Xia is most familiar with, it must be the modern square dance hits. Therefore, the suona version of "The Most Dazzling National Style" soon sounded in this area.
It was intermittent at first, but soon became passionate, and then became more and more smooth.
In Lin Xia's sight, the fire-loving pythons that were originally rushing towards her ferociously suddenly became slow in movement and their eyes became confused due to the interference of the suona sound.
Only the largest fire-loving python was still struggling, and even more flames came out of its body.
However, after holding on for a while, it died down, and even the flames between the scales were flickering, and seemed to be about to go out.
At this time, one of the several flames of the fire-loving python became somewhat conspicuous.
