Chapter 190: Death Sandstorm
The vast land as far as the eye can see, the vast thousands of miles of desolation and uninhabited, the vast sea of sand, the flying sand and gravel, is completely a dead and silent world, and only the mournful howl of the wind can be heard. Xiao Yu rode a motorcycle in the sharp sound of breaking the air, the sand was deeply broken, like an invisible sharp knife cut in the sand, leaving a long deep scar, the yellow sand was raised, accompanied by the whirring wind, gradually scattered and drifted away, the heaven and earth were full of desolate artistic conception.
Squeak——!
Xiao Yu suddenly stopped the car with a scream, and the yellow sand and gravel were lifted into the air, and when the wind blew, it sprinkled like gold dust, and the surrounding sand and dust were filled. Xiao Yu turned over and jumped out of the car, habitually pulled out a war knife from the ring with his right hand, stepped on the soft sand with both feet, and walked forward step by step, leaving a row of deep footprints.
In the vast and boundless sea of sand, you can see the sand dunes in all directions, with ups and downs and winding, almost more than a thousand miles. The earth is completely pale yellow, very uniform in tone, there is hardly a trace of variegation, there are no plants in sight, no animals are in sight, the land is extremely desolate, there is nothing.
Xiao Yu put down the hood that shaded the sun, raised his eyes and looked around, but he couldn't find anything wrong, the desert with a radius of thousands of miles, at first glance, it looked undulating, but it was no different. Monotonous, empty, dry, and deadly silent, this is Xiao Yu's first impression of the Death Desert.
It's the fourth day.
Since Xiao Yu left the Firefall Land and arrived in this Death Desert, he has been wandering in the desert for four days. He had never been here before, the size of the desert was beyond ordinary people's imagination, and no one could give an answer as to where the legendary Temple of the Lost was and where it was buried under the yellow sand.
It's been sixteen days since I left Wentian City.
The main purpose of this trip, "The Book of Sand", has no clue at all, Xiao Yu feels that the situation is very bad, let alone a month if it goes on like this, even if he goes shopping for a year, Xiao Yu will not want to find anything. Xiao Yu's situation is not optimistic, he has already spent too much time in the Firefall Lands, and now in the Death Desert, he must spend more time than in the Firefall Lands. In thirty days, there is no going back.
Q: What will be the current situation in Amagi? I don't know if everyone is doing well. It is estimated that the cities on the mainland have gradually increased, and there have been preliminary exchanges between them. Xiao Yu shook his head and threw the messy thoughts out of his mind, now is not the time to care, he must put all his energy into finding the Lost Temple, looking for the Book of Sand.
Xiao Yu got on the motorcycle again, turned on the power system, two flames erupted from behind, and the motorcycle shot out with a scream, and it didn't take long to disappear behind the sand dunes in the distance, leaving a long gray sand on the ground, the yellow sand was flying, and the sun was shining, like shining gold dust.
…………
Night is falling.
At the end of the day's search, Xiao Yu, who had found nothing, rested on the spot, took out dry firewood, lit a bonfire, sat cross-legged on the sand, took out a piece of breadfruit and a piece of raw meat from the ring and roasted them on the fire. The silver moon hung high in the sky, and the desert under the night was even more deserted, and the night light flowed into the water coldly, and the whole earth turned a blue-gray.
"I didn't expect it to be so difficult, I knew that the Book of Sand was at my feet, but I didn't know where to start, I was really helpless!"
I searched with all my might, but I couldn't get a clue.
It felt like punching with all my might, fighting for a long time, sweating a lot, and it was all in the air, although I put a lot of effort into it, but it didn't have any effect.
If it goes on like this, you have to flash your waist!
Xiao Yu smiled self-deprecatingly, thought about coping strategies, tore off a piece of barbecue from the fire, and ate it with relish alone. The sound of the wind whistling in the ears is like the sorrow of a hundred ghosts, in this dark, silent and gloomy environment, it is extremely terrifying, making people feel hairy in their hearts. However, it had no effect on Xiao Yu, and after eating and drinking enough, he went directly into the tent and prepared to take a nap.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Yu, who was half asleep, heard a rustling sound.
The moment Xiao Yu woke up, he grabbed the war knife like a conditioned reflex, jumped up and then rolled out of the tent, the scarlet killing blade was horizontal on his chest, and he looked around vigilantly. At this time, the sky was completely obscured by dark clouds, the moonlight could not be sprinkled, and the whole desert was truly in an environment where you could not see your fingers. The temperature is very low, I'm afraid it will drop to a few degrees below zero, but for Xiao Yu, who has experienced the freezing of the Red Lotus Hell Fire, this temperature is nothing at all.
The flames in Xiao Yu's blood-red eyes were beating slightly, and after observing left and right for a while, he gradually put away his defensive posture and muttered, "Strange, what sound?" As he spoke, he bent down and plunged the knife into the sand, stretched out a hand to the cold sand, closed his eyes and felt it quietly.
There was a slight tremor that was almost imperceptible.
Xiao Yu opened his eyes, pulled out the war knife beside him, sand and dust shook under his feet, jumped a few times, landed on the sand dunes dozens of meters away, and glanced into the distance. At the end of the desert, a black line appeared, and it seemed that there were thousands of horses galloping, and the low whispering sound came from there.
Death Sandstorm!
This is the most terrible disaster in the Desert of Death, but in Xiao Yu's view, it is a long-awaited gospel. Because the Death Storm is coming from the Lost Temple, as long as you follow that direction, you will definitely find the Lost Temple!
Xiao Yu put the war knife into the ring, took out the Minotaur Black Iron Shield in his left hand, took out the Wind Bead in his right hand, sat on the motorcycle, and rushed towards the direction of the death sandstorm with a roar. The speed of the death sandstorm is extremely fast, and basically when it can be seen from a distance, it often rushes in front of it by the time it reacts, not to mention that it is still head-on. Xiao Yu quickly approached the sandstorm and stopped in front of him and put away his motorcycle. I am ready to take out the scroll back to the city at any time, and if I can't support it, at least I can save my life.
The gravel in a radius of thousands of miles was raised, with a height of hundreds of zhang, covering the sky and the sun, mighty, like a terrible desolate demonic beast, devouring everything. Hundreds of millions of wind blades shuttled back and forth, and everything that was swept into the storm was torn apart without exception. The terrible roar was like ten million lions roaring at the same time, and the terrifying sound was like a hundred million crazy bison galloping.
In the next second, Xiao Yu's body was swallowed by the endless sandstorm.
He felt that he had come to another world, the sand and dust that came to his face almost buried Xiao Yu at the first time, countless wind blades crisscrossed and scrambled over, scrambling to fly over, Xiao Yu raised the wind bead in his hand, the cyan pillar flashed, and the wild sand and light cyan wind blades that flew over were all contained by an invisible force in one meter, so as to go around, although the sandstorm outside was terrifying, it was indeed an extremely safe area within one meter of Xiao Yu's center.
Really.
The Wind Bead can indeed restrain the sandstorm of death.
This terrifying sandstorm composed of tens of billions of low-level wind magic, even if a fourth- or fifth-order powerhouse enters it, it will be more auspicious, even if he doesn't die, he will have to shed his skin, but Xiao Yu relied on his second-order strength, but he smoothly walked through it.
In fact, Xiao Yu's situation is not completely safe, in fact, although the death sandstorm is mainly based on first-level intensity attacks, but it is also mixed with a small number of second-level or even third-level attacks. He hadn't taken a few steps when suddenly a pale cyan wind spear shot straight at him, and after the weakening of the magic effect of the Wind Fixing Bead, it still had great power. Xiao Yu hurriedly raised the shield in his left hand and tried his best to meet it, and with a bang, the pale cyan air gun fell on the shield and was completely shattered.
Xiao Yu held the Wind Bead in one hand, and the Minotaur Black Iron Shield in the other hand to continue to move forward. About five minutes later, a sickle-shaped wind blade broke through the resistance of the Wind Bead and fell heavily on the shoulder, the magic defense of the iron armor suit was really not good, but the magic defense of the cloak of the dead worn outside was indeed not low, and this blow left a shallow cut mark on the cloak.
Xiao Yu staggered backwards, and more than a dozen wind guns and wind sickles attacked from all directions. Xiao Yu hurriedly dodged and resisted, but although he was blocked by the wind and sand, he was in the sandstorm, and he still had a feeling that his hands and feet were tied, like a thousand catties, as if the air around him was all solidified cement.
Wind attacks are extremely fast.
Dangdangdang!
The Minotaur Black Iron Shield blocked most of the attacks, but there were also a few that caught the net...... Xiao Yu's chest, right thigh, shoulder, etc., were all hit, but fortunately they were all blocked by the cloak worn outside.
Xiao Yu couldn't help frowning, shuttling through the death sandstorm was really not such a simple thing.
Xiao Yu was struggling, although the Wind Bead could isolate the wind and sand, but it was definitely not an easy thing to go retrograde in the yellow sand, which was overwhelming enough to bury Xiao Yu a hundred times per second. Even a rhinoceros may not be able to move an inch under such resistance.
However, Xiao Yu is not a rhinoceros, but he is a second-order peak warrior, and his strength and endurance are ten times better than that of ordinary rhinoceros. In this way, he moved forward quickly under the terrifying pressure that was enough to crush people into meatloaf. Wind guns and wind sickles followed, and the Minotaur's shield was already covered with scratches, and the cloak of the dead was cut and torn.
Finally, a wind scythe hit the chest and landed on the iron armor suit, this armor has extremely strong physical defense, but the magic defense is simply a mess, the wind scythe fell on it, and the armor was directly cut open, leaving a wound like a spring of blood.
This was the first damage Xiao Yu suffered in the death sandstorm, and with the first one, it didn't take long for the second and third injuries to appear. The magic attacks were so dense and frequent that even Xiao Yu's eyes couldn't avoid all the attacks in this environment.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Xiao Yu walked through the sandstorm and spent eight hours, eight hours without sleep, fighting against the sandstorm with all his might, and competing with tens of billions of wind and sand magic in the sandstorm.
Legend has it that once the death sandstorm in the Desert of Death blows, it cannot be stopped without ten days and half a month. If any powerful creature or undead is caught in a sandstorm, then there is absolutely no possibility of escape, and there are only two kinds of outcomes for the two. The first was slashed by tens of billions of wind-based magic, cut into minced meat, and vanished into the desert. The second is to fight the Sandstorm of Death for more than ten days and then survive.
Those who can do the latter are almost all super powerhouses with fifth-order strength.
