The flowstone desert is located at the junction of Yin, Yi and Sizhou, and its entrance is not all the Li River whirlpool formed by the total solar eclipse. However, it has been verified by predecessors that the Li River Whirlpool is the safest entrance.

Backwards, the flowstone desert is full of unmarked undercurrents of quicksand, most likely connected to a whirlpool similar to the Li River.

However, Jiang Li, the first president of the Meizhou Branch, proved with bloody facts that any quicksand is like a "fierce beast" that eats people and does not spit out bones. Once you fall in, you will die for a lifetime.

It stands to reason that as long as you stay away from the yellow sand and take the way of flying, you can avoid the fierce beasts that eat people. But flying can sometimes prove to be more dangerous than walking. It can be said that the latter may still have a chance of life when it encounters danger, but the former is basically certain to die.

The reason for this is that the undercurrent in the Flowrock Desert is not simply quicksand, but acts on the terrorist forces of a specific area. Therefore, walking can reduce casualties. To put it bluntly, it is cannon fodder to explore the way and stop losses in time. In contrast, the way of flight is too fast, and by the time it is discovered, everything is too late.

This is also the reason why when Jiang Li first entered the Flowrock Desert, he lost fifteen lives in one wave. If it weren't for his wife Dongfang Yuanmu pushing him away in time, I'm afraid there would be no Meizhou Branch later.

Having said that, after Xu Jinghuai and Lin Man'er and the others entered the Liuyan Desert, they did not continue to fight. On the one hand, they have already done it before entering, and both sides have a general understanding of each other's strength.

On the other hand, the two sides have the least respect for the ancient kingdom of Loulan. To put it bluntly, they weren't the only intruders, nor were they the strongest. Before them, how many famous immortal monarchs died here. Therefore, it is wise to preserve strength in case of sudden situations.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Xu Jinghuai restrained his temperament and always followed Lin Man'er's ass. And every step is like walking with footprints.

In this regard, Xia Yuan was puzzled, and Chuanyin asked, "Aren't you very confident?" But now, why are you so cowardly? ”

Xu Jinghuai smiled slightly, and said in a slightly self-deprecating tone: "I don't have such a good family background as him, and I can't compete with him for a while." Taking a step back, our goal is to escape from the cage of the Ancestral Star in search of a broader future. Therefore, it is extremely unwise to fight with each other at this time. ”

After Xia Yuan heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes and said, "Come on!" From what I know of you, this is not the case. ”

Xu Jinghuai was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xia Yuan, and said with interest: "Then tell me, what are the facts?" ”

Xia Yuan pondered for a moment, but still couldn't guess Xu Jinghuai's true thoughts. In other words, since the moment they met in Jiangzhou, she had never guessed correctly.

On the contrary, Xu Jinghuai can guess her mind every time. For example, right now, Xu Jinghuai, who was originally reluctant to explain more, replied truthfully when he noticed Xia Yuan's somewhat lost look: "You're right, I never do things that I'm not sure of." But now, I don't know much about the ancient kingdom of Loulan, and if it weren't for the situation, I would never have ventured into danger.

On the contrary, Lin Man'er has a deep background, and there is the strategist-oriented Chairman Xiao who plans for him, so he is bound to be fully prepared for this trip. As long as we follow him, we can avoid many unknown risks. ”

After Xia Yuan heard this, she said helplessly: "You are really ...... Wise! ”

"You're wrong, if I were really wise, I wouldn't have come in with him. Instead, he set up a formation outside, waited for him to return from the sword, and then waited for the opportunity to snatch it. ”

"If you do, he'll have to play with you!"

"Hehe, although the formation is set up by me, the person who grabbed the sword may not be me."

Xia Yuan was quite speechless and said: "He is Lin Man'er, not Lin Fool." If the Winter Solstice Sword ends up in your hands, then a fool can think that you are doing ghosts. ”

"You're wrong again! As everyone knows, I, Xu Jinghuai, am also collecting the twenty-four swords of the zodiac. So, as long as he laid it out properly, he would only resent his own incompetence instead of blaming me. ”

"If that's the case, why don't you implement it?" Xia Yuan looked puzzled.

Xu Jinghuai sighed heavily, looked at Lin Man'er's back in front of him, and said meaningfully: "I can calmly calculate anyone who has nothing to do with me, but I can't calculate the merits of a human race who can resist 100,000 demon soldiers alone!" ”

"Then why are you still competing with him for the Twenty-Four Swords of the Zodiac?"

"I have answered this question before, and although I admire his bravery, how can I hand it over to others if it is a matter of life or death? What's more, the Zodiac Twenty-Four Swords are not his thing, so why can they only belong to him? ”

Xia Yuan wanted to say something more, but she heard a sudden cry for help from the front. Xu Jinghuai immediately raised his vigilance and exuded his divine sense to check.

Unfortunately, the limitations of the Flowstone Desert on the divine consciousness are very severe. It can be said that the moment you open your divine consciousness, you have to face the risk of being disturbed by the original spirit.

However, Lin Man'er's Purple Extreme Soul Pupil was an exception, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he sighed helplessly. Then, picking up the pace, rushed over.

At that moment, I saw Wu Lingyin tightly hugging the neck of the Mianyin antelope, and the swirling sand grains around him were like sharp blades, constantly cutting the tail of the Mianyin antelope. That's fine, but the worse thing is that the sand below begins to fall, and with a strong suction, it seems to swallow everything above.

The situation in front of him was critical, and Lin Man'er hurriedly urged his mental power, intending to drag Wu Lingyin back. It's a pity that Wu Lingyin at this moment is like a compressed mountain, no matter how hard Lin Man'er tries, he just can't shake it. The worst thing is that Lin Man'er, who is in charge of saving people, seems to be also targeted.

In desperation, Lin Man'er had no choice but to cut off his telekinesis and try to destroy the quicksand vortex below. However, each time he launches an attack, the range of the quicksand vortex doubles. At the same time, Wu Lingyin's suction power will also be doubled.

This time, Lin Man'er didn't dare to attack anymore, looking at Wu Lingyin, who was crying for his father and calling his mother, he could only be in a hurry. Pei Yongsi on the side glanced at the quicksand vortex, and then sacrificed the Yiling Sword, intending to urge a sword to separate the world.

Dongfang Qingtang hurriedly stopped: "Don't come nonsense, if you go down with this sword, if you can't save people, we will have to follow the funeral." ”

After Wu Lingyin heard this, he cried out: "Master, the apprentice doesn't want to die, please save the apprentice." ”

Lin Man'er was so anxious that he scratched his head, not that he didn't want to save it, but he really didn't know what to do! At this time, Xu Jinghuai rushed over and suggested: "Since you can't save people for the time being, you might as well try to fill the hole!" ”

Lin Man'er glanced back, then turned his head to look at Dongfang Qingtang and asked for his opinion. After thinking for a while, Dongfang Qingtang sighed: "For today's plan, I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, try it!" ”

Lin Man'er nodded, opened the realm of earth, and constantly filled the surrounding yellow sand into the quicksand vortex. It's a pity that the quicksand vortex is like a monster that can never be filled, with a bloody mouth open and swallowing.

After Dongfang Qingtang saw it, he also opened the realm of soil. Unfortunately, it's not enough.

Xia Yuan looked at Xu Jinghuai on the side, and said, "This is a good opportunity, you can also help!" ”

However, Xu Jinghuai didn't seem to have the intention of helping, and saw him holding his hands on his shoulders, looking like he was sitting and watching a good show. Xia Yuan sighed, no longer forced, and then used his sword qi to run the surrounding yellow sand, which could be regarded as doing his best.

As for Pei Yongsi, he wanted to help, but was stopped by Dongfang Qingtang's voice and asked him to keep an eye on the danger behind him. As a result, the upright Pei Yongsi directly put the Yiling sword horizontally in front of him, putting on a posture that he would draw the sword at any time.

Seeing that the work of the small half cup of tea has passed, the quicksand vortex still shows no sign of being filled. Just imagine, if the other end of the quicksand is really connected to a place similar to the Li River, it will definitely not be filled.

This situation and this scene can't help but remind Dongfang Qingtang of what happened to Jiang Li. At the beginning, Jiang Li watched his wife and fourteen friends being swallowed by quicksand, so how desperate he must have been! In other words, even Jiang Li can't do anything, so what can they do?

At the moment, he admonished: "Stop! If it goes on like this, we'll have to fill it in. ”

Lin Man'er gritted his teeth, directly opened the Nine Wind Acupoints, and kept absorbing the surrounding yellow sand. In just a short time, the originally raised sand dunes were smoothed out by him, revealing the white bones that had been buried for a long time. Unfortunately, it's not enough!

At this time, Xu Jinghuai, who was "watching the play" on the side, finally spoke.

"Although the scale is small, it can weigh thousands of catties; Although the iceberg is heavy, the water is also loaded! ”

Lin Man'er seemed to understand something when she heard this. I saw that he urged the purple pole soul pupil with all his strength, searching for a suitable target. Fortunately, about thirty miles away, there was also an unlucky Terran Immortal Monarch who was entangled in the quicksand whirlpool. Coincidentally, this person was the previous eight-rank axe cultivator.

Lin Man'er was helpless, although this distance was not too far, if you wanted to connect the two quicksand vortices, the difficulty was not ordinarily high! The worst thing is that Wu Lingyin may not last long.

Thinking of this, Lin Man'er put down his mind and explained the situation to Xu Jinghuai. Xu Jinghuai was still very shocked by this. In fact, when he saw Wu Lingyin falling into the quicksand whirlpool, he concluded that this person was dead, and there was no need to waste energy to rescue him.

However, when he saw Lin Man'er trying his best to save him, he was still a little touched in his heart. Therefore, he casually said his thoughts, which can be regarded as doing his best. Of course, he was just doing his best, after all, he never thought that Lin Man'er would really be able to find the next quicksand vortex.

Now, the distance of thirty miles may be difficult for Lin Man'er, but for him, it is just a matter of formation. And, in order to save time and express sincerity, he adopted the method of symbolic array. To put it bluntly, burn money!

Soon, the formation was built, and a "bridge" was established between the two quicksand vortices. Then the rest is none of your business.

Lin Man'er gave a grateful look, and then said to Wu Lingyin: "Later, I will let Dahan attack you with all his strength, you must be well prepared." ”

Originally, even Wu Lingyin himself was going to give up, but now that he heard that there was still a trace of life, how could he still think about the question of whether he could resist it.

Finally, under the interaction of the two quicksand vortices, the suction of Wu Lingyin was also greatly attenuated. Lin Man'er seized the opportunity, summoned Da Han, and ordered him to swing his fist with all his might.

Fortunately, Wu Lingyin finally got out of the quicksand whirlpool.

Unfortunately, under Dahan's full blow, the martial soul armor was the first to shatter, followed by her young body. It can be said that if it weren't for the Mianyin antelope blocking most of her fist strength for her, I'm afraid she would have turned into a puddle of meat mud now.

Lin Man'er stopped it in time and sent it to the Maple Leaf Temple for the quack doctor to rescue. As for the Mianyin antelope, the injury was too serious, and Lin Man'er could only mourn for it.

Da Han shrank his body, looked at the dying Mianyin antelope, and said with some guilt: "Master, am I trying too hard?" ”

Lin Man'er comforted: "Thank God for being able to save people back." ”

However, the miraculous thing is that the eight-rank axe cultivator who was also caught in the whirlpool of quicksand escaped smoothly with his own strength. And, following the direction of the formation, I chased it all the way.

When Lin Man'er saw him, he was extremely shocked and said, "You actually ...... Also alive? ”

The eight-rank axe cultivator seemed to understand something, and bowed his hand and said: "In Xia Shitong, thank you for saving your life." ”

Lin Man'er naturally didn't know Shi Tong, but Dongfang Qingtang did. I saw him step forward and ask, "Has your patriarch Shi Yao resumed his cultivation?" ”

Shi Tong smiled bitterly: "It's already good to be able to pick up a life!" ”

"Then why did you come to Loulan Ancient Kingdom?"

After thinking for a while, Shi Tong replied truthfully: "Find someone!" ”

Dongfang Qingtang guessed: "Could it be your great-ancestor stone industry?" ”

Shi Tong nodded, and saw Pei Yongsi excitedly said: "The stone industry you are talking about, could it be the one who is known as the first axe cultivator of the ancestral star?" ”

"That's right! At that time, the name of the predecessors of the stone industry was far louder than Qiu Yue! Dongfang Qingtang said, and deliberately glanced at Lin Man'er.

Interestingly, Lin Man'er turned to look at Xu Jinghuai and asked, "Why didn't you go to Qiu Yue to grab the sword back then?" ”

Xu Jinghuai really didn't expect Lin Man'er to ask such a question, and said quite embarrassedly: "Eh... It's not crazy enough to challenge the first heavy sword of the ancestral star with the cultivation of the eight grades. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Lin Man'er suddenly patting Xu Jinghuai's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Fortunately, you didn't go!" That old thing is so powerful, when you come down with a sword, it's like lifting a mountain and smashing it. I almost confessed to a physique like mine, let alone your little white face. ”

When Xu Jinghuai heard this, he was stunned on the spot. He also thought that Lin Man'er was going to ask the teacher to ask for guilt, but now this remark, except for the last sentence that should not be heard, the rest does not seem to be a gesture of asking guilt.

Xia Yuan still had a certain understanding of Lin Man'er, so she sent a message to Xu Jinghuai: "You help him save people, and he will treat you as a friend, it's as simple as that!" ”

Xu Jinghuai still couldn't believe that the person in front of him was the demon slaughter who had a big fight with him not long ago. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Lin Man'er smile on his face: "That... I heard that you are proficient in Danshu, medical skills, etc., so there must be a way to save this Mianyin antelope, right? ”

After Xu Jinghuai heard this, he began to ponder. thought to himself: If you don't save it, you will inevitably be looked down upon by Lin Man'er. But if it is treated, the price paid is far more than the value of the Mianyin antelope itself.

Dongfang Qingtang saw Xu Jinghuai's embarrassment, so he sent a message to admonish Lin Man'er, don't mess around. However, as soon as Lin Man'er heard this, she said directly to Xu Jinghuai: "Even if you rescue you, I will double the cost for you." ”

Xu Jinghuai seemed to understand a little, pointed to the dying Mianyin antelope and said: "It's not much different from dead now, if you want to save it, the price is really not small!" ”

"I know what you said, but it saved my life, and I have to pay back this love." Lin Man'er said with a serious face.

After a little hesitation, Xu Jinghuai still took out a small red wooden box covered with talismans. Subsequently, he confirmed again: "This is the Turtle Shou Yang Yuan Dan, the ninth rank of the heavenly rank." Even Danzong doesn't have much left, are you sure you want to give it to it? ”

"Don't worry, when we go out, I'll let the fish baby compensate you twice."

Xu Jinghuai smiled, used a secret method to unlock the talisman seal on the small wooden box, and then used the Divine Fire Technique to control the effect of the medicine, so that the Mianyin antelope could bear it. Of course, although the Turtle Shou Yang Yuan Dan is precious, it can only be temporarily suspended. If you want it to recover, you need to recuperate for a long time.

Lin Man'er patted Xu Jinghuai's shoulder again, her eyes full of appreciation. At this moment, Pei Yongsi said curiously: "Since the Turtle Shou Yang Yuan Dan is so precious, where did you get it?" ”

This question made Xu Jinghuai embarrassed. Xia Yuan, who was on the side, looked at his demeanor and had already guessed the origin, so he said sourly: "You still need to ask, it must have been sent by a certain little fairy from Danzong." ”

Xu Jinghuai just wanted to defend a few words, but he saw the sand under his feet suddenly tremble. Immediately afterwards, a terrifying force erupted from the ground, accompanied by a large amount of yellow sand, broken bones, water currents, etc., gradually forming multiple sandstorms that covered the sky and the sun.

Obviously, they connected the two quicksand vortices, causing a series of chain reactions in the flowstone desert.

Luckily, they no longer have to worry about getting caught in a whirlpool of quicksand. Unfortunately, at this time, the Flowstone Desert ripped off its disguised mask and became a fierce beast with teeth and claws.

Xu Jinghuai rubbed his eyebrows, full of helplessness: "Alas, it's a big game now!" ”

However, Lin Man'er said very confidently: "Afraid of a hammer, isn't it a sandstorm?" Follow me, and I'll take you out. ”

After that, he opened the Purple Pole Soul Pupil, and soon analyzed a relatively safe escape path. However, Lin Man'er has a purple soul pupil, but it doesn't mean that other people have it. The immortal monarchs, demon kings, and degenerates who broke in first before have already begun to scold their mothers!

Among them, Jiu Yiwen, He Shaohua, and Chen Baozhi encountered a white bone monster with a large body. Originally, with the strength of three people, even if they were defeated, their lives would not be in danger. Sadly, their location happens to be in the middle of a sandstorm. Under the interference of the sandstorm, let alone dealing with the enemy, it is extremely difficult to even move the work.

At the moment of life and death, an extremely fast feather king flew over their heads. He Shaohua seized the rare opportunity and wrapped the ankle of the Feather King with gold wire, and only then did he escape.

Of course, after getting out of danger, the three of them also consciously offered their rewards. The reason for this is that the speed of the feather king is too fast, and even if he adds "cumbersomeness", he can freely shuttle through the sandstorm.

It can be said that in terms of speed, even the shadow dance of the Supreme Qingluan is difficult to match. Therefore, if he deliberately refused to carry it, He Shaohua had no chance of succeeding. Unless he can step into the Star Monarch Realm first and awaken the Heavenly Question Physique.

Speaking of other Terran Immortal Monarchs, the basic ones who can survive are not only their own strength, but also luck. For example, there are two men in black cloaks, who not only avoid the terrible sandstorm, but even the bone monsters they encounter are relatively weak.

It is worth mentioning that the purple-robed man found by Jiu Yiwen before completely relied on hard power to get rid of many dangers. In addition, a lot of "competitors" have been solved by the way.

As for the demon clan, since they dare to break into the ancient country of Loulan, they have their own extraordinary means. For example, the elite team led by a butterfly feather king not only easily bypassed the sandstorm, but also reaped a lot of benefits in the white bone field.

For another example, Shadow Dance, who has entered the Supreme Feather King Realm, has always maintained her human form after entering the ancient kingdom of Loulan. Although she should have encountered the same, it is puzzling that she can turn evil into good luck every time, and seems to know the dangers of the Flowstone Desert very well. At the same time, she was also the first to get out of danger.

In contrast, the most serious losses were the fallen of the Red Demon Continent. On the one hand, they work in their own way and calculate each other; On the other hand, their luck was really bad, not only encountered three powerful sandstorms, but even encountered a very rare bone scorpion tide.

Although the strength of the Fallen is not bad, in the end, not even a tenth of the total number of people survived. It can be said that they verified the meaning of "nine deaths and one life" with their lives.
