Gobi desert, howling sand and dust.
In the blackened sand pit.
The five-color peacock fell into a coma, and his breath became darker and darker.
When the five-colored flames on the body's surface were almost extinguished, a colorful escaping light rushed over.
"Quieer!"
The peacock saint's moon-like eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was filled with sorrow and anger.
The colorful clothes on her body were torn in large pieces, and the texture of feathers was condensed on her snow-like skin.
From its smooth back, a pair of two-foot-long three-color wings extend between its ribs.
The mana fluctuations mixed with the peacock's supernatural power surged around her, and the terrifying spiritual pressure was close to the Nascent Soul stage.
For hundreds of miles around, life is silent.
"Land turtle——"
The peacock saint clenched her silver teeth tightly, and blood oozed from her cherry lips.
Click!
The magic power in her body was violent and chaotic, her colorful clothes exploded, and the yellow sand filled the sky, eroding and covering her spotless snow-white body.
Looking at the dying colorful peacock.
The Peacock Saint could only suppress her hatred and sit cross-legged.
He stretched out his delicate hands, caressed the peacock's belly, took out bottles and jars, and rescued and healed the spiritual pet.
The five-color peacock of Tianpin bloodline has been cultivated for more than two hundred years and is related to the foundation of her practice.
The Peacock Saint had no choice but to give up tracking Lu Changan.
"The treasure talisman array...the method of cultivating beasts...the third-level puppet..."
"The nail-headed arrow magic weapon surpasses the soul attack in the later stage of pill formation..."
At this moment, she reunited with the five-color peacock and communicated with her consciousness. She got more information about the fighting method.
"Then Lu Changan, either reincarnated and re-cultivated to break the mystery in the womb, or he was taken away by a high-level monk."
The Peacock Saint was afraid of Lu Changan's many methods, but she didn't know the root of them.
It is impossible for a normal monk to have so many skills and methods at the same time, and his soul is so powerful.
This is possible only through reincarnation, or through rebirth.
This kind of situation is not uncommon in the history of the Holy Sect.
Otherwise, even the most powerful prodigy of the Holy Sect would not be able to make her suffer such a big loss in the early stage of pill formation.
This was one of the reasons why the Peacock Saint gave up the pursuit.
Even if Lu Changan didn't dare to confront her head-on, there was something cunning about it.
"The interception failed this time and allowed the thief to escape. I'm afraid he won't have a chance for many years to come..."
The Peacock Saint was unwilling to give in, but she had no choice.
During the war, she also had to perform tasks, and finally found time to sneak into the rear of the battlefield, where the defense of Liang State was relatively weak.
When I went to the Beast Control Zhou's house, because there was a third-level formation and a third-level clan-suppressing spiritual beast, in order to avoid disturbing the situation, I just explored it secretly.
The target escapes to Feng Yuan Kingdom in the endless desert.
Looking for such cunning and cautious old monsters again is like digging for gold in the sand.
Even if she is promoted to Nascent Soul, she may not be able to do it.
The Heavenly Master of Feng Yuan Kingdom is not a vegetarian. Once they reach the opponent's territory, there is nothing they can do in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
Although the Peacock Saint is the seed of the Nascent Soul and the sect's genius, her personal behavior cannot affect the decision-making of the huge Beast King Valley.
Unless the Beast King Valley captures the entire Guardian League area in the future, its influence can radiate to Feng Yuan Kingdom.
The Peacock Saint believes that that day will not be too far away.
…
The endless wasteland of flying sand.
Lu Changan drove the escape light and traveled for two days.
The flying sand and dust are becoming more and more violent, which has a considerable impact on the flying speed of the Danjie monks.
Whoosh!
Lu Changan landed on a sand dune, sat cross-legged, adjusted his breath, and took a long breath.
"Cut off the wings of the five-color peacock, causing it to be seriously injured and poisoned. The peacock saint's fighting strength and tracking ability will be greatly reduced."
The five-color peacock's mobility and five-color aura are more troublesome.
Without this heavenly spiritual bird, even if the Peacock Saint came after her, Lu Changan would be able to deal with it with much less pressure.
This is also the reason why Lu Changan targeted the five-color peacock.
The Peacock Saint poses a greater threat and may have a Nascent Soul-level trump card.
According to previous calculations, even if the fourth Nascent Soul comes to the world and fights for life and death, there will still be considerable risks.
Moreover, once the saint is killed, it will inevitably lead to investigation from the top of the Beast King Valley.
Killing a sect's genius has completely different consequences than killing an ordinary pill-forming person.
It’s totally not worth taking on such risks with limited returns.
Since this woman is extremely powerful, she is extremely dangerous. If you can't afford to offend her, then trap her temporarily.
Cutting off this woman's left and right arms made her feel pain from the bottom of her heart.
Lu Changan took a few pills to restore his mana and blood.
"If the immortal golden elixir, Xuantian Gourd Vine, and the secret of longevity are not exposed, then there is no big problem."
He made some calculations and got a rough hexagram.
As for the other methods revealed in the battle, they are just external things and do not involve his core secrets.
In this battle, Lu Changan never exploded with magic power, fighting with the Peacock Saint, and the golden elixir magic power of Evergreen Gong was not leaked.
In fact, for a top power like the Six Demonic Sects, the golden elixir level chance secret is not a big deal.
Only big opportunities above the Nascent Soul level, involving promotion to the mid-to-late Nascent Soul level, or related to Lingbao, can attract the real attention of the top level and investigate at all costs.
The Xuantian Gourd Vine on Lu Changan's body is a magical thing that can block the divine calculations, so there is no need to worry.
The object conceals itself, and what is concealed is itself, and it has nothing to do with passers-by.
Lu Changan had not refined Xuanteng and had not recognized it as its master. How could he enjoy the corresponding effects?
Even if it is refined and recognized in the future, the passive attribute of this treasure itself may not always be able to bless the owner.
Half an hour later.
After review and calculation, Lu Changan confirmed that he was basically safe after escaping to Feng Yuan Kingdom.
Feng Yuan Kingdom is too far away from the front line of the battlefield.
Beast King Valley must destroy Feng Kingdom, Jing Kingdom, Chen Kingdom, Heng Kingdom, etc., and digest the territory before it can consider Feng Yuan Kingdom.
Feng Yuan Kingdom is remote and desolate, with a harsh environment.
A small number of demonic elites came over, but they were not acclimated to the environment, and there was not enough flying sand and sky to fill the gap between their teeth.
Feng Yuan Kingdom is located in the interior of the boundless flying sand desert, occupying some relatively suitable oases, mountains, and swamps.
The area of Feng Yuan Kingdom is large enough, comparable to the Immortal Cultivation World of Feng Kingdom.
The entire Feisha Desert is more than ten times the size of Feng Yuan Kingdom!
Continue crossing northward, passing through more dangerous and harsh environments, even approaching the border of Daqingdi.
Such a remote, harsh environment.
Lu Changan suspected that even if the Beast King Valley captured the entire Wei Dao Alliance, they might not be interested in invading Feng Yuan Kingdom.
At least within a hundred years, it is unlikely.
…
While recovering his mana and vitality, Lu Changan cleaned up the battle damage and gains from his previous escape.
Neither puppets nor pets were lost.
More than thirty treasure talismans were consumed, mainly because of the batch of treasure talismans with low material quality and insufficient potential. Lu Changan did not feel bad.
As the level of cultivation increases, the treasure talismans are also being updated in an orderly manner, and the material of the talisman embryos and the refining temperature are getting better and better.
The biggest loss is lifespan.
While using "Red Yang Blood Escape", during the running period, including the calculation of Huang Lang Zhenren, his life span was shortened by more than three years in total.
Plus the scattered consumption before running away.
Now, Lu Changan's total lifespan is still 1,120 years, which is comparable to some Nascent Soul monsters.
If he didn't consider cultivating Xuantian Gourd Vine, this longevity would be enough for him to squander it during the Golden Elixir Stage.
Compared with the loss of more than three years of life, the gains from this trip are worth every penny.
Just the trophies from Master Huang Lang made Lu Changan a huge profit.
The precious resources, spirit beast cubs and eggs, can be traded for many second- and third-level life-extending pills.
The first third-level life-extending pill that Lu Changan took that year directly extended his life by a period of sixty years.
Lu Changan turned over his hands and took out two jade boxes, which contained a silver ring and a peacock feather respectively sealed inside.
"The spirit ring is a rare item that a beast master dreams of. Even in the Beast King Valley, the spirit ring of the third level and above is very rare."
Lu Changan's Nascent Soul experience identified the origin of the Yuling Ring's purpose.
This ring can tame and enslave monsters, and human monks can also be targeted.
However, the target must lose resistance or be seriously injured and weakened in order to successfully tame the slave.
If the enslavement target has high intelligence and is fearless of life and death, there is also a certain risk of backlash.
"She's just a peacock saint, an evil witch! She actually tried to enslave this real person like a cat or a dog..."
Lu Changan looked calm, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
If he were an ordinary pill-forming monk, he would probably become a pet or servant domesticated by the Peacock Saint, and lose control of his life and freedom.
Lu Changan silently remembered the revenge of this pursuit.
In the future, if the magic power is fully achieved, this soul-controlling ring will be used to repay the other person's body in the same way.
Lu Changan looked at the peacock wings in the jade box again.
"The third-level five-color peacock only has three wings in total."
"The wings of such a heavenly peacock are extremely rare third-level treasures in the world of immortality."
As a third-level weapon refiner and talisman master, Lu Changan has many uses for these peacock wings.
It can be used to refine talisman pens and improve the quality of talisman drawing.
Smelting it on a nail-head arrow shaft may increase speed and magic.
The five-color peacock has a thin true spirit bloodline, and its wings condense the essence of its body, containing extraordinary spirituality and Taoist charm.
Lu Changan sensed an aura similar to the immortal golden elixir on it.
In addition, it is full of spirituality, surpassing the third-level spiritual bamboo. I wonder if there is room for improvement.
Lu Changan plans to dispose and transform the imperial spirit ring and peacock wings after he settles down in Feng Yuan Kingdom, completely turning them into his own to eliminate the possibility of being tracked and induced.
…
A few hours later, Lu Changan recovered his mana and blood.
Take up the Escape and drive through the endless gray-yellow desert with howling wind and sand.
Feng Yuan and Liang had little contact with each other.
The main reason is that the environment is harsh, the journey is long and dangerous.
Even the lone False Dan Zhenren will face considerable risks when crossing this desert.
The main dangers in this desert arise from three categories:
First, the flying sand chasm.
The various natural disasters in the desert and the power of heaven and earth can even swallow a third-level spiritual ship.
The spirit ship that traveled steadily between the Jing Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom was difficult to use in the Feisha Desert. The target was too large, and it was easy to avoid natural disasters and easily attracted a large number of sandworms to attack.
The spirit ship is constantly being attacked by flying sand, and the spirit stones used to maintain the spirit ship's formation are consumed at an alarming rate.
Second, sandworm alien beasts.
Strange insects and beasts in the desert occupy geographical advantages.
Either in groups, tens of thousands; or individually powerful, weird and difficult to defend against.
According to records, the high-level sand beasts in this desert once had records of killing Zhendan monks.
There are also inaccurate legends that in the desert further north of Feng Yuan Kingdom, there is a tsar sleeping underground, whose supernatural powers are better than the ordinary Nascent Soul Lord in the desert environment.
Third, rob and repair the sand bandits.
Most of them are wanted criminals in Feng Yuan Kingdom, and they are extremely vicious.
In recent decades, there have been some deserters who migrated from the Wei Dao League.
These sand bandits are familiar with the geographical environment, and their martial arts or mounts are adapted to survive and fight in the desert.
The monks of the same level fell into the desert and faced natural disasters and insect beasts. They were no match for them.
There were both natural and man-made disasters, resulting in very few contacts and commercial exchanges between Feng Yuan Kingdom and the countries of the Wei Dao Alliance.
Lu Changan has a long endurance and does not dare to let go of his hands and feet to fly at full speed in the flying sand wasteland.
The mana fluctuations are too strong and can easily attract the attention of sand beast bandits.
He needs to stay in good shape and deal with unknown variables.
The fourth generation of True Lord Nascent Soul had visited Feng Yuan Kingdom two hundred years ago and had a general understanding of the terrain, but he was not as familiar as the natives here.
The Jiugang Sky above the flying sand desert is filled with a kind of dark yellow sand mist, which isolates the consciousness and senses. The strong wind in it is several times more violent than the outside world.
Flying in the Nine Gang Heavens, one's spiritual consciousness will be reduced, mana will be violently consumed by the Gang Wind, and one may also face attacks from strange sand beasts and birds.
…
Seven days later.
Lu Changan entered the depths of the Feisha Desert.
During this period, we encountered a large-scale sandworm disaster, which was like locusts crossing the border and wiping out all living things.
Fortunately, Lu Changan had strong senses and had rock rats to explore the path, thus avoiding risks in advance.
Deep in the desert, the yellow sand is shrouded in strong winds, and the consciousness and senses are restricted.
"If we go forward for another two or three months, we will reach Feng Yuan Kingdom."
Lu Changan recalled the map in his mind.
In terms of distance alone, a true elixir monk would not be able to fly that long. Mainly in harsh environments, the flying speed would not be much faster than in the foundation building stage.
From the outer circle to the depths of this flying sand desert, the natural disaster environment becomes more and more severe.
However, Feng Yuan Kingdom, located in the center of the desert, has a barren land that is relatively livable.
There are oases, small mountains, swamps, etc.
There is even a snow-capped mountain in the hinterland of Feng Yuan Kingdom, which can be described as a miraculous place in the hot and dry desert.
That ice and snow peak is the sacred mountain worshiped by the eight major tribes of Feng Yuan Kingdom.
The Holy Mountain of Ice and Snow is the holy place of cultivation for the "Heavenly Master", the native Nascent Soul Lord of Feng Yuan Kingdom.
According to Master Lihuo of the fourth generation, this heavenly master is not an ordinary Yuan Ying in the early stage.
As long as the Heavenly Master sits on the Ice and Snow Holy Mountain, even if he comes in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he will not be able to get any benefits.
If you leave the Holy Mountain, or even leave the scope of Feng Yuan Kingdom, the strength of the Heavenly Master will not be that strong.
Many years ago, the Yuan Ying monks who defected from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect refined terrifying poisons and claimed to be outstanding in their level. They attacked the Ice and Snow Holy Mountain in an attempt to occupy the fourth level spiritual vein dojo.
As a result, the Yuan Ying of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect defected and died tragically on the Ice and Snow Holy Mountain, and the Yuan Ying was not able to escape.
Feng Yuan Kingdom has a harsh environment, poor resources, and a mysterious Celestial Master, making it a good place to take refuge.
Therefore, Master Lihuo arranged some of his descendants here.
"That's it, let's go another way!"
Rushing in the wind and dust storm, Lu Changan was also bored, tired, and mentally stressed.
He decided to get comfortable.
Put your finger on the hidden space storage ring.
A sand beast magical weapon that looked like a crocodile, with short limbs and a grayish-yellow shell fell on the ground.
Lu Changan made a secret and injected magic power, and the sandworm magic weapon expanded to two feet long, about the height of an adult.
This is a magic weapon sand chariot made from the body of a second-level sand beast.
A hatch opened at the top of the Sand Beast's car, and Lu Changan ducked in.
The space inside the Sand Beast Magic Artifact is cramped, only the size of a toilet.
Fortunately, sleeping alone is not a problem.
Lu Changan sat cross-legged and closed his eyes, cast a spell to control the sand beast's magic weapon, and flew across the desert surface.
Even if it encounters a sandstorm and is trapped in the sand layer, the sand beast magic weapon can still travel, but the speed is much slower.
"Hmm! It's comfortable..."
In the Sand Beast carriage, Lu Changan prepared a glass of iced juice by himself to soothe his mood in the hot environment.
The breath of this sand beast magical weapon is similar to that of the sand beast, and it matches the breath of the indigenous people in the desert, making it less likely to attract attacks from sandworms and alien beasts.
The rock rats walked through the sand to explore the path for Lu Changan in advance.
…
Two or three months later.
Lu Changan avoided a lot of risks in the desert and killed a few ignorant sand beasts as game.
Getting closer and closer to Feng Yuan Kingdom.
"In another ten days, we will reach the nearest tribe in Feng Yuan Kingdom, Scorpio Desert City."
Lu Changan would check the map every day and adjust his position.
In Feng Yuan Kingdom, with the Holy Mountain of Ice and Snow as the center, the major tribes developed and built eight major desert cities.
These eight deserted cities are built in relatively livable oasis areas. The environment has been transformed to withstand natural disasters, wind and sand, and will last for tens of millions of years.
Like branches, they are distributed throughout Feng Yuan Kingdom to establish business relationships.
The corresponding eight major tribes are almost as powerful as the Liang Dan Sect.
These tribes have believed in since ancient times, respected the holy mountains of ice and snow, offered supplies, and received great protection, thus gaining a foothold in the harsh environment.
Zhizhi!
The rock rat exploring the road in front found something abnormal and sent a warning.
"what's the situation?"
Lu Changan was very calm. The most dangerous area on the road had been passed.
In the desert areas close to Feng Yuan Kingdom, powerful sand beasts are rare.
The more common ones are some sand bandits.
as expected.
A few miles ahead, a group of sand bandits wearing leather armor and beast robes were besieging a medium-sized sand beast cart that was seven or eight feet long.
"Brother, be gentle! The female cultivators in Xuanyin Pavilion are all as beautiful as flowers and are proficient in music."
"Tsk, tsk, after the brothers play, they can still be sold for a lot of money on the black market."
On the bandits' side, there were two fake alchemy monks and five or six foundation-building monks.
The two fake men led by them looked very similar and had dark faces. They were the "Black Scorpion Brothers" who were well-known among the nearby bandits.
He has done all sorts of unscrupulous things, including killing people, stealing goods, bullying female cultivators, and selling people.
In the medium-sized sand beast car, there are four or five female cultivators with fair skin, beauty, and pleasant temperament. They hold musical instruments such as piano, flute, and Xiao. They bloom various musical beams and ripples to resist attacks from the outside world.
The formation on the medium-sized sand beast car was dim and in danger.
"Little sisters, hold on. When Elder Jiang detoxifies the poison, he will be able to kill the Black Scorpion brothers."
Among the female cultivators in Xuanyin Pavilion, there was a hunky-backed, bare-chested fake alchemy female cultivator with a loud voice, beating a waist drum, and making bursts of beastly roars that contained evil spirits. The vigor and blood of the approaching bandits were boiling, and they were panicking. .
"Didn't I say that the monks of Xuanyin Pavilion are all slim and beautiful?"
Lu Changan's small sand beast car circled from the other side of Xuanyin Pavilion, keeping a distance from the black scorpion brothers and the bandits.
The muscular and shirtless female cultivator, named Miao Jing, is an alternative among the female cultivators of Xuanyin Pavilion. She is born with supernatural powers and has chosen musical instruments such as drums.
In the medium-sized sand beast car, there are three other female cultivators. They have typical Yangliu slender waists, fair skin, beautiful appearance, and straight black hair.
Two of the girls are in the late stage of foundation building.
The last female cultivator in a white dress has a pure and beautiful temperament, like a hibiscus emerging from water. But his face was pale, his lips were black, his lips were trembling, and he was sitting cross-legged in a sand cart to heal his injuries.
The female cultivator in the white dress is the "Elder Jiang" of the muscular female cultivator Miao Jing.
"Hey, Jiang Ruotong, the genius of Xuanyin Pavilion, with true elixir cultivation, is poisoned..."
Lu Changan's consciousness swept over and recognized the identity of the female cultivator in the white dress.
To be precise, it was the fourth life Master Lihuo who recognized this woman.
Jiang Ruotong was once the musical genius of Xuanyin Pavilion, with both talent and appearance.
A descendant of Master Lihuo and a disciple of Lihuo Palace, he once pursued Jiang Ruotong.
Later, the master of Xuanyin Pavilion learned about this and wanted to arrange a marriage between Jiang Ruotong and the descendants of Master Lihuo.
Master Lihuo had read Jiang Ruotong's information and found that he was more than worthy of his own children and grandchildren. He met with the master of Xuanyin Pavilion and finalized the marriage.
Unexpectedly, during the war of the Jinyang Sect moving north, Xuanyin Pavilion was the first sect of the original Liang Kingdom to be breached.
Later, Xuanyin Pavilion moved to Feng Yuan Kingdom, and Lihuo Palace also faced the crisis of Jinyang Sect's northward migration, so the engagement could not be settled.
Over the years, Jiang Ruotong lived up to her reputation as a talented woman and formed a true elixir.
…
"This fellow Taoist who is passing by, can you lend a helping hand? I, Xuanyin Pavilion, will be grateful in the future."
Miao Jing, who was bare-armed and beating her waist drum, keenly noticed the small sand beast cart passing by.
The Sand Beast Cart was restricted and isolated, and her spiritual consciousness could not detect it. The owner inside was at least a fake elixir master.
"Your Excellency, please don't meddle in other people's business! If I can help you, my brother Black Scorpion will sell you a Xuanyin Pavilion female cultivator at a low price."
The Black Scorpion brothers also discovered the small sand beast cart, warned it, and promised benefits.
Since the formation was not broken, they did not know that there was a poisoned True Alchemy female cultivator in the sand beast cart of Xuanyin Pavilion.
"Don't worry, Xu won't do anything."
Lu Changan dressed up as an elegant man and spoke calmly.
"You're a smart kid!"
The Black Scorpion brothers were relieved, smiled ferociously, and stepped up their offensive.
Inside the Xuanyin Pavilion Sand Beast Car
A "wow" sound.
Jiang Ruotong spit out a mouthful of blood, black blood lines appeared on his forehead, and the poisonous injury became more serious.
"Elder Jiang!"
Miao Jing and the other four female cultivators looked pale and worried.
"What's going on? I obviously gave Elder Jiang the Chifeng Detoxification Pill."
Miao Jing said with a trembling voice.
While Jiang Ruotong was hunting exotic animals in the desert, he was accidentally bitten by a strange insect and was poisoned.
Lu Changan's consciousness swept over the poisoned Jiang Ruotong, his face twitched, and he was unable to complain.
Thinking of the time when he transformed elixirs and assumed the identity of the female cultivator "Liu Qingyan" of Xuanyin Pavilion, he sent a message to reprimand him:
"Play the piano randomly!"
"She was poisoned by yin and cold. You used the detoxifying pill to dispel the heat? Do you think she didn't die quickly enough?"
