At this moment, Qin Yun didn't know that when the two said goodbye, in the desert dozens of miles away, a group of knights had just arrived at the outskirts of the Sand City Demonic Realm.
The man in black robes who led this group of knights was clearly the Holy Messenger from Piaomiao Peak. In addition to one less Tianquan Thirty-six Cavalry, his team also had two guides dressed as herdsmen.
"Sir, we can only take you here. It's too dangerous to go inside!" A herdsman pulled the reins and stopped moving forward. He carefully said to the man in black: "The reward you promised us."
A cold light flashed in the dark eyes of the man in black robe, and he waved his hand expressionlessly.
The herdsman was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the man in black robe meant. If he hadn't been greedy for the huge reward of a hundred taels of gold, he would never have wanted to go to this land of death. Bringing him here was already the limit.
If you go further inside, you will find that no matter how much money you have, you have no life to spend it!
Poof!
The next moment, the herdsman's head flew into the sky, and the blood from the broken neck spurted several feet high, splashing on the hot sand and sending up plumes of white smoke. The air was suddenly filled with a strong smell of blood.
A black-armored warrior next to him put away his sword as if nothing had happened. His cold eyes glanced at another young herdsman intentionally or unintentionally. The latter was so frightened that he wet his crotch and almost fell off his horse.
Come.
"Continue to lead the way, and the reward I promised will not be less," the man in black robe said calmly.
The young herdsman was full of intelligence and nodded hurriedly. He did not dare to touch the body of his companion who had lost his head, and hurriedly drove his mount forward, whipping the horse's belly until blood dripped.
In pain, the horse spread its hooves and rushed dozens of steps away. Suddenly, its knees gave way and fell to the sand. The young herdsman was thrown out!
Bang!
He fell all over and before he could react, his body had already sunk halfway!
quicksand!
The young herdsman suddenly lost his mind and shouted at the top of his voice: "Save me, save me quickly"
He could no longer shout out the following words, because the quicksand quickly flooded his body, poured in from his mouth, and completely swallowed him whole!
By the time the black-armored knights reacted and tried to save people, it was already too late.
The horse that had lost its master struggled to stand up and let out a series of sad neighs. The hearts of every black-armored knight were covered with a layer of invisible haze, and the atmosphere became solemn and stiff for a while.
They followed for thousands of miles and lost Murong Qing first. After chasing to Xiangshuiji, they found nothing and lost an army. Now they arrived at the dangerous and unpredictable Shacheng Demon Territory and lost two more guides. The subsequent search is bound to become more difficult.
The face of the man in black robe became extremely sad, and he also regretted killing the guide just to show his authority, but in the situation like this, he would never admit his mistake.
"You two people walk ahead to explore the road, be careful of quicksand traps." The man in black robe swept his sharp eyes over the faces of the knights, and said in a deep voice: "I am sure that that person has also come to the Sand City Demonic Realm, and is right next to us.
We must not let him escape this time!"
The knights silently accepted the order, and two of them dismounted to explore the way, and continued to move deeper into the Demon Realm.
It was getting dark, and the setting sun shed its last rays of light on the ruins of the ruins, sinking under the horizon without mercy, leaving the earth completely to the night!
However, the bright white moon soon replaced the sun, and its faint glow covered the desert and the sand city with a beautiful veil. The wind from the distance whistled through the ruins, faintly carrying the howl of unknown beasts.
cry.
Night is a paradise where monsters roam!
Qin Yun leaned against a broken stone wall, flicking the small bonfire in front of him with a dagger. The broth in the earthen pot was gurgling, and the rich aroma of meat was spreading everywhere.
The location where he camped should be the remains of a certain mansion. Thick stone pillars can be seen everywhere. Although it has experienced thousands of years of wind and sand, the relief patterns on the surface are still clearly identifiable.
The Shacheng Demon Realm covers an extremely large area, and Qin Yun has almost no knowledge of the situation inside. All he can rely on is the array map in his hand, so he naturally does not dare to wander around recklessly at night.
In fact, until now, he still has not entered the core area of the Sand City Demonic Realm, which means that it is not yet time for the formation map to take effect.
But Qin Yun vaguely felt that somewhere in front of him, there seemed to be something that was attracting him extremely strongly, constantly conveying certain ideas to himself, driving him to move forward firmly!
Ever since entering the desert, this inexplicable emotion originating from the depths of the sea of consciousness has always troubled Qin Yun.
He picked up a piece of boiled dried meat with a dagger, sprinkled some fine salt on it, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it wholeheartedly. He broke open a piece of dried meat bun and put it into an earthen pot to soak up the meat juice.
Thanks to the Qiankun Space, Qin Yun doesn't have to drink from the skin in this desolate desert ruins.
The smelly water-stuffed dry food can cook the broth comfortably.
It's just that he hasn't realized that he made a mistake.
Just as Qin Yun picked up the second piece of beef from the jar, he suddenly felt creepy all over his body, as if he was being stared at by something, and a strong sense of crisis arose from the bottom of his heart!
Among the ruins not far away, two pairs of green light groups suddenly appeared, erratic from left to right.
Qin Yun slowly put down the dagger in his hand, raised his head and looked forward, sparks flashing in his dark eyes!
With the help of the light of the campfire, he easily identified the source of the danger.
They were two black and purple beasts, with leopard-like bodies and ferocious jackal-shaped heads. Their fangs were exposed and their eyes were wide open, with extremely bloodthirsty ferocity and greed in their eyes.
The two demonic beasts were divided into the left and right sides and slowly approached Qin Yun. They smelled the aroma of beef, and saliva dripped from the corners of their mouths, dripping on the sand with a sizzling sound. It turned out to be a highly corrosive poison!
If it were an ordinary monster, it would never have brought such a strong sense of threat to Qin Yun. He pulled out the Wrath Cang Sword, and his vigilance was raised to the highest level.
call!
Suddenly, the flames of the bonfire in front shook violently, and Qin Yun keenly discovered that the monster on the left had disappeared without a trace, and a strong wind surged rapidly from the side!
laugh!
Qin Yun turned around and swung his sword without thinking, and the head of a purple monster suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Its sharp dagger-like claws silently slashed towards his abdomen. The speed was simply unbelievable!
Bang!
The Nu Cang Sword struck the monster's back, breaking through the tough skin and leaving a deep blood mark on it, but the monster's sharp claws also tore away Qin Yun's body-protecting energy!
The second monster jumped to the right almost at the same time. In his haste, Qin Yun had no time to return his sword to intercept it, and he made a fist with his left hand and hit it hard on the head, hitting the hard and sharp fangs in the middle.
Click!
One of the monster's fangs was smashed by Qin Yun's iron fist. The tyrannical monster was knocked back a few steps, and then roared up again. The monster on the left opened its mouth and bit his left leg.
!
The two monster beasts cooperated extremely well, and their attack speed was extremely fast. With Qin Yun's strength, he had no time to dodge, and was thrown heavily to the ground by the monster beast. The situation suddenly became extremely critical.
The moment he fell to the ground, Qin Yun felt an unbearable sharp pain in his right calf. The monster's fangs bit through the body's protective energy, biting the leg meat and leg bones!
At this critical moment, Qin Yun still remained calm enough, and thrust out the Wur Cang Sword with all his strength, relying entirely on his feeling to stab the monster's head. The sword energy spurting from the tip of the sword instantly penetrated the latter's head.
Head!
At the same time, his left hand tightly grasped the throat of the demonic beast that was jumping on him, forcing the demonic beast's bloody mouth to deflect away from his head!
Unwilling to be subdued, the monster desperately scratched Qin Yun's body with its claws. Qin Yun suddenly raised his leg and placed it heavily on its soft belly, kicking it out!
Qin Yun escaped from the dangerous situation and jumped up. He secretly called luck to his torn clothes.
The kicked demon beast rolled around on the sand twice before standing up again. It did not continue to attack Qin Yun, but instead hit the lifeless companion who fell to the ground. It let out a low roar from its throat, and then quickly
He turned around and disappeared among the ruins.
Qin Yun did not pursue him, but there was a numb and itchy feeling in the injured part of his left leg, which forced him to use Haoran's Righteous Qi Jue to activate Haoran's Qi to refine the poison that invaded his body to avoid causing greater damage.
The poison of this monster is quite powerful. It took Qin Yun half a stick of incense to force all the remaining poison out of the body, but deep corrosive scars were still left on his legs. It is estimated that it will be difficult to completely eliminate.
This gave Qin Yun a deeper understanding of the dangers of the Sand City Demon Realm. The two monster beasts that suddenly appeared should be at the mid-level level, but their speed was amazing and their attack power was extremely high, which almost caused him a big loss.
We are still on the outskirts of the Sand City Demonic Realm, and the monsters that appear are all so powerful. So will we encounter more and stronger beasts when we enter?
Qin Yun didn't need to guess the answer. He held the heavy sword in his hand tightly and cast his gaze into the dark distance. The ruins shrouded in the night were like dormant giant beasts, seemingly ready to attack anyone who dared to do so at any time.
The enemy breaks in!
Ouch!~
The howls of wild beasts were heard in the distance. Dozens of miles away, the black-robed man in the Holy Envoy looked exactly the same as Qin Yun, as if he could see the true appearance of this land of death through the thick darkness.
Around him, thirty-five knights were struggling to kill the black-armored sandworms that kept appearing from all directions. Not far away, several horses were eaten away until only their skeletons were left.
The roar of battle and the scream of sandworms are intertwined, echoing in the desert for a long time! (To be continued. You are welcome to subscribe and reward. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
