Chapter nine hundred and eighty fourth crazy old man
Above the empty sky, with thousands of miles of blue sky, the scorching sunlight fell from the sky as if it was about to melt people. The barren Gobi below reflected a red and yellow color, making it look particularly dead.
A scalding gale was blowing in the air, like a red-hot blade sweeping through the world. It easily shattered the corpses of some huge monsters in the Gobi desert, turning them into a piece of yellow sand and submerging them in the gale.
Such a harsh environment can probably only be described with the word bleak.
Chilian Gobi is the largest Gobi in the Northern Wilderness, and it is also the most barren place in the entire Northern Wilderness.
Here, although the earth is not like yellow sand, it is still a barren land. The gravel everywhere is covered with scorching heat, which makes walking difficult and scalding the soles of the feet. It is precisely for this reason that this
Pian Chi Lian Gobi also has another name, Barefoot Next Door.
The scorching heat environment is not suitable for the existence of living creatures, but in this boundless Gobi, at this moment, a small group of people are walking forward slowly and staggeringly.
Sweat continued to fall from the foreheads of these people. However, before the beads of sweat hit the ground, they were already steaming in the hot air. Most of these people were in ordinary situations, but there were a few middle-aged people wearing brocade robes.
The aura all over their bodies is thick, and they are not affected by the environment of this world at all, and these few are all nine-star Dou Emperor experts.
As for the others, even the ordinary Dou Di warriors looked slightly ugly in this strange environment. The environment in the Northern Wilderness was no better than that in the Western Wilderness. Even in this strange environment,
In the Gobi, even the strong Emperor Dou is affected by the environment.
After all, it is the power of heaven and earth. Even if it is as strong as Dou Di, it cannot be ignored.
However, among these people, there is one person who has not been affected by the harsh environment in the Gobi.
A slovenly old man in rags and embarrassment walked among this small group of people, although his figure did not change at all, and his steps seemed messy, but if you look carefully, you can see that
There seemed to be some special pattern among these messy footsteps, and it was this pattern that kept the old man's crooked body from falling.
In addition to this sloppy old man, at the end of the team, a young figure wearing a black robe and steady steps was walking forward slowly without changing his face. Judging from his appearance, he was naturally
Xiao Yan heading north.
A week has passed since the destruction of the South Palace, and the Gobi Desert where Xiao Yan is now is the only way to Beiji Mountain. Although it is not a vast desert, it is still a vast area.
, here, even Xiao Yan would still be at risk of getting lost without a guide, and in order to avoid this, Xiao Yan could only follow the team in front of him.
Although this team is small in number, the three high-level Dou Emperors leading the way have a certain understanding of this desert. They are like old horses who know the way. They are the only ones in this desert at this moment.
guide.
At this moment, everyone in this team has paid fifty low-level spirit stones to these three people. Although the fee is high, it is not only used to cross the Chilian Gobi. The most important thing is to be able to
Let them cross the Gobi safely.
Although Chilian Gobi is desolate and barren, there are also potential dangers in this harsh environment. Powerful monsters struggle to survive in this environment. The struggle for survival becomes more intense here, every moment.
There will be powerful monsters that fall, but those who survive in the future will only be more powerful beings!
In this red desert, even ordinary high-level Dou Emperors are still in danger of life. It is for this reason that the leader of this team is composed of three high-level Dou Emperor powerhouses.
Walking at the end of the crowd, Xiao Yan was not in a hurry. Although there were gravels under his feet, it did not cause him any trouble. When the soles of his feet fell, the gravels under his feet were easily crushed like tofu.
Wherever he passed, he actually left a row of clearly visible footprints.
At the same time, with every breath of Xiao Yan, the powerful fire energy contained in this world is also constantly pouring into his body. Although this kind of practice seems particularly slow, it is also extremely solid. Every time
A trace of energy is condensed after countless times of absorption and refining. The result is undoubtedly the most direct for the growth of cultivation. The only drawback is that it is slow, but this does not affect Xiao Yan's heart.
of interest.
After the last trip to the Obsidian Tower, although Xiao Yan's cultivation level has increased a lot, his aura is still not stable enough. After this period of slow settling, I believe that Xiao Yan's cultivation level will be able to completely condense.
In fact, this can be considered a good thing for itself.
A strong person's journey is like asceticism in the Gobi desert. Only by taking one step at a time and being down-to-earth can he truly grow. Xiao Yan naturally understands this truth very well.
"kindness?"
Just as Xiao Yan was walking, the figure of the sloppy old man suddenly entered Xiao Yan's sight.
An ordinary old man would naturally not catch Xiao Yan's attention, but what was different about this old man was that he was wearing a ragged black robe.
A robe was so torn that it looked disgraceful, and it was obvious that the robe was burned by flames. But it was this that made Xiao Yan's doubts deepen, because he could clearly see
Sensing the fierce and domineering flame aura coming from the old man's body, Xiao Yan was able to confirm from this alone that the latter was also a cultivator of the fire attribute, and his cultivation level was definitely not low.
At least, when Xiao Yan used his soul power to detect the opponent, he was unable to detect any valuable information.
As a fire attribute cultivator, he was so embarrassed by the flames. This really made Xiao Yan curious. What kind of flame could make a strong fire attribute person look like this?
"kindness?"
When Xiao Yan used his soul power to explore the old man, the latter also noticed something. A smile flashed across his dark old face, and then, his swaying steps slowed down invisibly.
As for Xiao Yan at this time, he was absentmindedly thinking about the questions in his mind just a moment ago.
If the flame that can make a strong Dou Di master so embarrassed was not the work of someone with a stronger cultivation level than him, then there is probably only one kind of flame in this world that can do it.
"Is it a strange fire?"
Something suddenly occurred to his mind. Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows. The moment he raised his head, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and fell directly on top of him. Then, in Xiao Yan's shocked face,
He fell in front of him, and at the same time, miserable wailing sounds also sounded, attracting the attention of everyone in front.
Xiao Yan's face changed in shock. He didn't expect that someone could get close to him without him realizing it. Even though he was just distracted for a second, an incident like this would normally be enough to seriously injure him.
His body quickly retreated. After confirming the safety of the surrounding environment, Xiao Yan looked at the place where he had just stood with vigilant eyes. At this moment, there, the sloppy old man was curled up on the ground.
As soon as these words came out, the people behind them all frowned and looked at each other. Finally, their eyes fell on the three high-level Dou Emperors.
Since the three of them have collected the spirit stones from these people, they naturally have to ensure that they are escorted to their destination. They cannot easily leave anyone in the team behind, and the actions of this sloppy old man at this moment will undoubtedly slow down their progress.
Moreover, there are many powerful monsters in this red desert. Once provoked by this old man, it will cause even greater trouble. Compared with this, the latter situation is inconvenient for everyone.
Would like to see.
"Ouch...it hurts..."
The old man held his right leg with both hands and rolled around on the ground. The slightly hoarse wailing sound in his mouth made people feel irritated and more disgusting.
In front of everyone, the three middle-aged men in brocade robes frowned and looked at the sloppy old man curled up on the ground. At the same time, they also noticed Xiao Yan.
They could naturally see that this sloppy old man must have deliberately caused trouble, but right now, regardless of the reason, they had to suppress the matter first, otherwise if he allowed him to continue making trouble like this, he would probably cause trouble to everyone.
"Sir, the sky is high and the road is long. We still have to rush on our way now. If there is no serious problem, we hope that you can hold on for a while and wait until it gets dark before checking your injuries. Furthermore, the monsters in Chilian Gobi are extremely powerful.
It's scary. Once we attract them, it will be a big trouble. I hope you can consider the safety of all of us."
One of the three middle-aged men in brocade robes stood up and spoke in a calm tone. However, the sloppy old man ignored his words and still curled up on the ground with a painful look on his face.
But it made others sneer in their hearts.
"Smelly old man, Master Chen is talking to you so loudly and angrily, why are you still acting like this? If you don't get up and shut up, I'll ask you to get up!"
The middle-aged man cares about his own interests and talks loudly, but those who are on their way don't care. They only care about their own schedule and must not be delayed because of anyone.
At this time, Xiao Yan also frowned suspiciously at the sloppy old man curled up on the ground in front of him. He had never met the latter, but what did the old man want to do?
The sloppy old man simply ignored the words of others. He looked straight at Xiao Yan with a pair of deep and bright eyes, and still wailed:
"Boy, you broke my leg, you have to compensate me!"
Sharp and hoarse shouts echoed in the empty world. Everyone's frown deepened, and Xiao Yan's face also darkened. It seemed like this old man was deliberately looking for trouble.
However, when the old man stared at Xiao Yan, the latter could clearly see that there were several scars burned by the flames on the old man's dark face, but at this time, he had no intention of paying much attention to it.
"Smelly old man, are you done yet?"
Seeing that this sloppy old man was indifferent, a middle-aged man with a slightly red face in the crowd nearby cursed in a low voice. His little patience had been exhausted by this old man. He was now very
You have to use him to cool down the temperature.
"laugh!"
The moment the words fell from his mouth, the middle-aged man's figure shot forward violently. His body and mind were as fast as lightning, and the fighting energy in his body was flowing rapidly. He waved his hand, and when he dropped it, the figure had already appeared behind the old man.
, and grabbed the sloppy old man's shoulder.
"Buzz..."
However, at the next moment, the sloppy old man glanced back at him seemingly unintentionally. His strange gaze instantly made the middle-aged man unable to move at all, and the fighting spirit flowing through his meridians seemed to freeze instantly.
As if he was stunned, a deep feeling of panic suddenly rose in his heart, and his originally red face turned completely pale at this moment.
"Bang."
With a slight muffled sound, the middle-aged man's figure retreated uncontrollably. Although it was not serious, this hand alone was enough to make everyone present change their expressions.
Although this middle-aged man's cultivation is not at the top in this game, he is still a six-star Dou Emperor. However, this sloppy old man is able to kill the latter with just one look without touching the latter's body.
It is conceivable how strong he is when he is able to defeat him!
At this moment, not only Xiao Yan, but also the three middle-aged people's faces also became solemn in an instant, and their eyes were full of deep fear when they looked at the old man.
However, just when Xiao Yan was about to speak, Xiao Xuan, who had been silent for half a month, finally spoke at this moment.
"Boy, don't be careless. This person's aura is so deep that even I can't see through it. His cultivation level has probably surpassed that of Dou Emperor. You have to be careful!"
The particularly solemn words resounded in Xiao Yan's heart, and as they fell, they instantly aroused waves in Xiao Yan's heart, just like a huge boulder dropped on a calm lake.
Emperor Yue Dou, these four words alone are enough to show how powerful this old man is. He must be at least at the level of the Origin of Transformation!
"Huayuanjing..."
His heart trembled slightly. Even with Xiao Yan's temperament, he couldn't help but become nervous at this moment. Even a pair of tightly clenched palms under his sleeves slowly and unconsciously loosened his grip.
