When Jiang Heng's vision changed, he saw an extremely vast desert Gobi area, with a large river still flowing quietly not far away.

There was wind and sand all around, and from time to time, Jiang Heng's skin could feel a slightly frosted sensation. If it was an ordinary low-level demigod, he would feel a slight tingling on his skin at this moment.

Jiang Heng looked up at the sky and found that it was gloomy here. The clouds in the sky were extremely low, as if there was a thunderous sandstorm brewing above.

This was Jiang Heng's first day entering the ruins. The ruins were located in a deserted area nearly a thousand light years away from the Port of Athos. The entrance was in the middle of an inconspicuous meteorite belt. From a distance, it looked like nothing more than an inconspicuous area.

It is an inconspicuous void, but as long as you get close you can feel the distortion of space and there is a space tunnel large enough for one person to pass through.

Anyone who enters the ruins enters through the narrow space tunnel.

"According to the data description, after entering the entrance of the ruins, you will be randomly thrown into the outer area of ​​the ruins, so I should be in the outer area of ​​Wanli Huangsha now."

Jiang Heng took out the map that was like a scratch paper and compared it briefly to find out his current location.

Wanli Yellow Sand is a vast area covering nearly one-third of the outer area, with a diameter of nearly hundreds of light years.

There are a large number of ancient ruins, buildings and cities buried in the sand in this area. This is also the most popular place for many gold diggers who want to find gold.

Because as long as you bring some treasure hunting equipment and explore slowly, you may be able to dig out good treasures.

After all, most of this place was buried by yellow sand, and the previous land reclamation teams were too lazy to expend such effort to dig, which actually made it easier for subsequent gold diggers.

"There should be the most scattered people here. I can explore here first. It won't be too late to continue exploring inside after getting familiar with the environment of the ruins."

Jiang Heng put away the map. This time he did not follow other teams in. For the first time, he still wanted to explore alone to get familiar with the familiar environment.

After just a few steps across the river, I was attracted by the big river not far away. Logically speaking, given the climate and such windy and sandy terrain, rivers should not have existed here for such a long time.

However, there is indeed a large river in front of us, rolling in the distance. It looks no different from the rivers in the outside world, except that there are a lot of sand and stones in the water and it looks very turbid.

Out of curiosity, Jiang Heng walked to the river, squatted down and observed it carefully.

"What on earth are these rivers? How come they are still flowing as before after so many years?" Jiang Heng murmured to himself as he looked toward the end of the river.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Heng did not touch this strange long river rashly, but headed upstream along the long river, wanting to explore the source of this long river.

The wind and sand here seem a bit weird. If the speed increases, the resistance will increase linearly.

"The highest speed can be improved to the peak of the domain master. If it continues to improve, I am afraid that the ordinary middle-level physical body demigod will collapse in an instant."

After feeling it for a while, Jiang Heng did not dare to continue to increase his escape speed. Although he still had some confidence in the strength of his physical body, the situation here was complicated. If he did not fully understand it before consuming too much, he was afraid that many variables would arise.

The scenery here seems to be unchanged, and the feeling is the same no matter where you go. There is no alternation of day and night, or changes in the four seasons, as if time is a very vague concept here.

Jiang Heng kept his head buried in flight, his eyes always watching the river below. At the same time, he also calculated in his heart how many days had passed compared to the outside world. About ten days later, Jiang Heng found that the river below was still the same, as if it was the same as when he first entered this place.

What I saw was exactly the same.

If it weren't for the slight difference in the height of the nearby desert wall from before, Jiang Heng would have thought he had stayed where he was.

Although Jiang Heng was patient enough, he was still a little impatient at this time. Seeing that the long river below was still the same.

"Is there a formation here? In any case, continuing like this is a waste of time." Jiang Heng slowly lowered his figure and landed on the soft sand. He pondered for a moment, glanced around, and finally landed not far away.

on the long river.

Just when Jiang Heng came to Changhe and was about to use a bottle to get some river water for testing.

A sudden change occurred.

The river that was originally rushing forward suddenly began to stir. A small whirlpool appeared in the center of the river and began to expand rapidly. The surrounding river water seemed to suddenly set off waves, and the surging river water was like angry dragons rolling inside.

Whoosh whoosh!

Just when Jiang Heng was secretly on guard, the chains formed by the dense current suddenly emerged from the river. The speed was so fast that Jiang Heng's limbs were restrained before he could react.

Jiang Heng was about to move to escape, but a huge force suddenly came from the chain. Under the huge force, Jiang Heng was caught off guard and was dragged directly into the whirlpool.

Jiang Heng was horrified and wanted to use the power of space to break free, but an extremely strange electric current quickly spread from the chains to his whole body, and the electric current quickly penetrated into his limbs and bones and into many orifices.

The Space Principles that originally reached Dantian and flowed through the acupoints to be used were temporarily collapsed when stimulated by this strange current.

And it was during this brief collapse that Jiang Heng was completely sucked into the whirlpool by the chain.

When Jiang Heng was swallowed by the turbid water, his vision went dark, a powerful wave of sleepiness swept through his body, and his consciousness fell into chaos.

I don't know how much time passed, but Jiang Heng gradually regained consciousness and found himself lying near a palace that had nearly collapsed in half. There was a strange spear piercing his chest and back in his chest. The blood had solidified, and he was feeling a severe pain.

Sent to the depths of the soul.

"It seems that this is the thing that caused me to coma just now, but how could there be such a sharp weapon in the water?"

Jiang Heng frowned. The moment he was dragged into the river, he was attacked by such a thing.

Being able to penetrate the body of a fifth-level physical demigod, this spear itself is very strange.

Jiang Heng took a closer look at the style of the spear and said that the spear was actually more of an anchor, but the shape was very slender and sharp. However, because it had been in the water for a long time, there was obviously a lot of dirt on the surface of the spear.

However, it was found that the spear was still very strong inside. Jiang Heng tried to pull out the spear and found that the object could continuously swallow his own flesh and blood, just like a metal carnivore.

Jiang Heng's expression changed slightly, knowing that he could not let this thing stay in his body. Only then did he realize that his body was extremely empty. Maybe it was the beast that had just devoured a large amount of his essence, blood, and flesh.

"I don't know how long I was unconscious just now."

Jiang Heng cursed secretly. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing when he just entered the ruins and didn't catch anything.

It would have been extremely easy for Jiang Heng to pull out such a spear under normal circumstances, but at this time it was extremely laborious, and his strength and strength were even weaker due to the depletion of essence and blood.

It took Jiang Heng several minutes to pull the thing out.

When the spear was completely pulled out, Jiang Heng could see the whole thing clearly.

The spear itself should be fine, but the dirt on the surface is not dirt, but a strange octopus-like creature attached to the surface of the spear. Each of its tentacles is covered with sharp barbs and tiny sucking teeth.

The mouthparts are what this thing is constantly devouring its own flesh, blood, essence, and blood.

This object seemed to have grown together with the spear because it had been so long ago that many tissues had grown together, so it was forced to be pulled out, otherwise it might still remain in Jiang Heng's body.

And when they were pulled out, a lot of flesh and blood tissue was still attached to those tentacles.

Jiang Heng cursed secretly, and the wound quickly recovered. At the same time, he quickly took several pills and began to regulate his breathing.

After waiting for a long time, feeling that his breath was gradually returning to its original state, Jiang Heng carefully looked at the strange thing placed next to him.

Due to the loss of water flow, this thing looked like a water creature that had been dragged down by water. It became dry and flat, and its energy was also much sluggish. It lay there looking weak.

Jiang Heng picked up the spear and felt it for a while.

The spear itself should be a semi-artifact of the middle fifth level. Perhaps its initial level was very high, reaching a high level, but it has not been cultivated in a place with extremely abundant energy for such a long time, so it is inevitable that its level will drop.

.

"Although the spear looks ordinary, it seems to have extremely strong concealment and a very powerful soul toxin."

Jiang Heng carefully recalled the previous situation where he was hit by this object without any warning and was unaware of it.

"not bad!"

Weighing the spear, Jiang Heng directly threw it into a lake in his secret cave.

This thing is also a good treasure.

After dealing with the strange spear, a faint hint of fatigue appeared on Jiang Heng's face.

The poison in the soul has not completely dissipated, the soul is still a little groggy, and the mental state is not very good.

"The situation here is unknown, so we'd better explore the area first."

Having no time to continue regulating his breath and nourishing himself, Jiang Heng looked not far away and found that about ten steps in front of him, there seemed to be a huge stone slab lying there that was mostly buried in dust.

Jiang Heng waved his hand, and a strong strong wind blew away the dust in front of him, revealing the entire giant stone slab.

I saw that it was a dark gray fragment of the broken eaves of a large building somewhere. This stone slab seemed to be just a component of it. It was obviously a very special hard stone. After such a long period of time, it still did not become too much.

Obvious weathering phenomenon.

Since there are building ruins, it means that there are a large number of palaces or buildings here. Jiang Heng's face showed a ray of joy, and he continued to move forward without stopping.

The further you go in, you can see that there are gradually more green vegetation embellished nearby, and it is no longer as barren as where the long river was before.

Jiang Heng looked up and found that there were quite dark and thick clouds above his head. Jiang Heng speculated that this should be a hidden space under the river.

The surrounding green vegetation is gradually becoming denser, and there are more and more ruins on the ground.

Jiang Heng continued to move forward. Looking around, he could already see a palace complex at the end of his field of vision, covering an area of ​​several thousand acres. The palace complex was generally thirty-four feet high, and the entire body was made of dark gray stone.

Made of stacks.

If it were ancient times, these temple complexes would have been very magnificent, but now they are just devastated, with holes and collapses everywhere, and they are buried under thick dust.

But when I saw the potholes on the square in front of a palace, it seemed that it was not caused by geographical changes, but the trauma left by a fight.

Seeing this, Jiang Heng's eyes flashed slightly, and he was secretly vigilant while quickly exploring his spiritual thoughts.

After a while, Jiang Heng came to a collapsed eaves, lifted up the damaged rubble and blew away the dust inside.

But he saw a body pressed inside. Strictly speaking, it was a corpse. It had weathered for many years, but it still retained its human form.

The corpse was wearing a robe. The color of the robe was the same dark gray as the color of the palace, but Jiang Heng knew that the color here should have been uniform white in the past.

But after many years of erosion and dust, the white gradually turned into dark gray.

The clothes on this corpse were obviously made of special materials, and from this Jiang Heng could infer that the status of this corpse was definitely not low.
To be continued...
