Chapter 191: Desert City [1st Update]
Seeing Kong Ning's helpless look, Yi Chen had a very bad feeling in his heart, and looked at him with an inquiring gaze.
Sensing Yi Chen's gaze, Kong Ning shook his head and did not respond, "Originally, the destination of that teleportation array was in the Western Regions, but the place where we landed was in the Eastern Regions. ”
"What's the matter, Senior Kong, is there any problem?" Yi Chen was very puzzled, now that he was out of danger, Kong Ning still looked dignified.
"In the Eastern Regions, there is only one desert, and it is at the border of the Imperial Empire and the Wind Shadow Empire. Kong Ning pondered.
"That means we're on the border between the two countries now?" Yi Chen frowned slightly, and said, "Does this affect us?"
"Based on the time when the teleportation array was shattered just now, some high-level magicians can judge our location, and they will definitely come to investigate, if they find us, I'm afraid we will all be in danger. Kong Ning shook his head.
This is a problem that Yi Chen did not take into account, and immediately, his brows were furrowed, if the Imperial Empire launched a pursuit, then their situation would be very bad.
And what worries Yi Chen even more is that both of them have injuries on their bodies and urgently need to find a place to recuperate.
"This desert is the junction of two empires, and there are often cultivators shuttling here, so you better leave quickly so as not to be discovered. Kong Ning said in a deep voice.
Kong Ning was obviously driving him away, but Yi Chen was not surprised, after all, the two of them had just known each other, and although they had shared hardships, they couldn't talk about their feelings.
"Thank you seniors for saving me, if you have the opportunity in the future, the younger generations will definitely repay today's kindness. ”
Although it was only a cooperative relationship with Kong Ning, when he shuttled through the void just now, the other party sacrificed himself to let him escape first, and he was almost trapped to death. In this regard, Yi Chen's heart was full of gratitude, and he bowed to Kong Ning.
"Let's go, don't hold me back here. Kong Ning waved his hand, looking a little impatient.
Hearing this, Yi Chen nodded and followed Kong Ning, it would be safer to have his protection, but what he needed more was life and death experience, not the protection of others, even if Kong Ning didn't hurry, he would leave on his own.
"Take care, seniors. ”
The longer he stays here, the more likely he will be exposed, Yi Chen didn't stay long, saluted again, and then turned to leave.
"Peng" hadn't walked out for long, when suddenly there was a muffled sound behind him, which made Yi Chen's nervous heart skip a beat, and he quickly looked back, only to see Kong Ning, who was still fine, inexplicably falling to the ground.
This caught Yi Chen a little off guard, and without thinking much about it, the tip of his toe slammed into the sand, leaving a hole in the place, and his body rushed towards Kong Ning like an arrow from the string.
"Senior, how are you?" Returning to Kong Ning's side, Yi Chen could clearly sense that Kong Ning's aura at this time was extremely messy, his face was pale, and the situation seemed to be very bad.
"I didn't expect to be able to leave. Kong Ning shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Although I reopened the space just now, I was severely injured by the Gangfeng, and according to my situation at this time, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out of this desert." ”
"Senpai, you. At this moment, Yi Chen's heart was full of emotion, it turned out that Kong Ning didn't think he was dragging his feet just now, but was seriously injured and didn't want to drag him down.
"Little one, you don't want to take advantage of it, do you?"
Kong Ning looked very relaxed, just looked at Yi Chen's eyes, hiding sharpness and vigilance, in this world of the jungle, he didn't dare to guarantee that the latter would not see the wealth.
After all, the little guy in front of him knew that he had a legendary weapon on him, as well as two treasures that were coveted by many magicians.
Of course, it is difficult for him to even move a finger now, and if Yi Chen really makes a move on him, he will not have the power to resist.
"Take advantage of the robbery?" The corners of Yi Chen's mouth hooked up a touch of coldness, Kong Ning had a priceless treasure on his body, and now was a good opportunity for him.
"A legendary weapon, an eight-star patterned weapon, and an eight-star patterned disc are really exciting. Slowly taking a step, Yi Chen said this sentence as he walked to Kong Ning's side.
"Sure enough. Kong Ning couldn't help but smile bitterly, things were really as bad as he expected.
"Huh"
Yi Chen made a decisive move, quickly grabbed Kong Ning's collar, and violently carried him behind him. There was a weight of more than two hundred catties on his body, and he couldn't help but snort.
If it was in normal times, carrying more than two hundred catties of things on his back, there would be no pressure on Yi Chen, but now that he is injured, it is very difficult to take a step, let alone carrying a person.
"Little guy, what are you doing?" Kong Ning was extremely surprised, he originally thought that Yi Chen was going to kill people and seize the treasures on his body, but the final result was not what he thought.
"Although the treasure is tempting, I am not uncommon, and it is not my style to take advantage of people's danger. Yi Chen smiled faintly, then gritted the root of his teeth, took a difficult step, and walked forward.
"You kid. Kong Ning didn't know what to say at this time, and couldn't help but sigh, the young man in front of him surprised him, and in an instant he had a feeling that he hadn't saved the wrong person.
"It's obviously not suitable to recuperate in the desert, we need to get out of here quickly, but the desert has no obvious signs, and I don't know if we can get out. ”
Sweat slid down his forehead like a waterfall, Yi Chen's eyes were blank when he looked ahead, the desert was very terrifying, if there was no clear direction, I was afraid that he would be trapped here and couldn't get out.
"If you go ahead, you will be the realm of the Wind Shadow Empire, so as long as you don't deviate, you don't have to worry about losing your way. ”
Kong Ning opened his mouth to remind that although he was seriously injured, his spiritual sense was still very keen, and he was able to capture the movements of some dialects.
Hearing this, Yi Chen nodded, and then walked forward with difficulty.
The process was extremely difficult and painful, but Yi Chen gritted his teeth and moved forward. And Kong Ning relied on his powerful spiritual sense to guide Yi Chen to avoid some cultivators.
It was very dangerous here, Yi Chen didn't dare to rest, and after insisting on walking for more than six hours, he finally walked out of the desert, and a city appeared in front of him.
"Finally came out. Looking at that magnificent city, Yi Chen felt that the strength of his whole body was drained at this moment, and his body fell to the ground as soon as he became weak, panting violently.
Six hours of non-stop walking made him extremely tired, and the injuries on his body also worsened.
"That's the second-tier city of the Wind Shadow Empire, the Desert City, and it's the closest city to the main city. Kong Ning sat up with difficulty, along the way he was constantly absorbing the soul power of heaven and earth, and he had already recovered some strength.
"It's very bad for us to wander outside, and the only option is to enter the desert city and find an inn to stay in. After resting for a while, Yi Chen regained some strength and said.
"Now that's all I have to do, wait until I'm healed, and then leave. Kong Ning nodded, then took out a hat from the storage ring and put it on, and said, "Don't waste time, let's go." ”
Nodding, Yi Chen stood up, lowered his hat, and walked towards the desert city. And although Kong Ning can't use his soul power, as long as he doesn't run fast now, walking slowly is no longer a problem.
Without paying much attention, the two entered the city gate, walked the streets for a while, and then found a more remote inn.
"Welcome to the two guest officers, are you going to be a sharp-nosed person or staying in a hotel?" said a sharp-beaked monkey gills who looked very shrewd.
"Open two rooms. Yi Chen was already extremely tired, and waved his hand at the shopkeeper and said.
The shopkeeper was also shrewd, without too much nonsense, and quickly registered and arranged a room.
Yi Chen, who was extremely tired, chose one and quickly pushed the door to enter, while Kong Ning chose the one next to him.
"It's finally safe. Closing the door, Yi Chen's tense nerves relaxed in an instant, and a deep exhaustion swept through his body, and he had the urge to lie down and sleep immediately.
Walking to the bed, Yi Chen did not fall asleep immediately, but sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and quickly pinched the magic technique with both hands.
After experiencing the experience of life and death, grasping cultivation can achieve twice the result with half the effort, now is the best time to cultivate, Yi Chen will not miss it lightly.
The pores of "Xiu" are opened, and as soon as they open and close, a powerful suction force comes out, and the soul power between heaven and earth surges from all directions, entering the body along the meridians.
The amount of soul power is very huge, and Yi Chen's body is like a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing the soul power that is pouring in.
In the process of absorption, a trace of energy is detached from the meridians and flows through the muscles, repairing damaged muscles and bones, and a tingling sensation spreads throughout the body.
This time, the absorption time was longer than the previous cultivation time, and gradually, the suction power released by Yi Chen began to weaken, and finally the pores also closed, and the soul power between heaven and earth dissipated in an instant.
The soul power that was consumed was all replenished, but the physical trauma was very strict, Yi Chen cut off the magic technique, and then touched the storage ring, and turned out an identified healing spirit stone.
Although soul power can also repair the body, the effect is not very obvious, and the key is to rely on healing spirit stones.
With his hands sealed, Yi Chen's body released a suction force again, and the healing spirit stone slowly rose into the air, stagnating in front of him, releasing a faint light.
The special energy contained in the healing spirit stone seems to be guided at this moment, seeping out of the spirit stone, slowly flowing, and entering the body along the pores.
That energy swims in the blood vessels, through the blood vessels to the limbs and hundreds of remains, it contains a huge breath of life, Yi Chen's seriously injured body, like a long drought and rain, constantly absorbing that energy.
Damaged muscles are repaired with visible results, and in the process of repairing the wounds, the muscles are also remodeled, the flesh is stronger than ever, and the bones are stronger.
