In order to avoid an underground river that almost blocked all the way forward, Qu Wuming had to fly over an extremely vast swamp. After killing many strange and fearless creatures, he finally came to a seemingly very strange place. Desolate area.
Looking around, there are low sand dunes and rugged rocks everywhere. Those sand dunes are all composed of black-gray gravel. Under the dim sunlight, there seems to be a faint black smoke constantly rising, which is very strange. On those sand dunes, you can see some strange and weird black boulders everywhere, standing like sculptures in the black sea of sand. It is obvious at a glance that they have experienced countless years of wind and sand baptism, so they have What it looks like today.
This sea of sand is the last barrier between Qu Wuming and Gui Mingyuan.
Qu Wuming stopped at the edge of the sand sea and looked far into the distance, but his sight was blocked by the rising black smoke, making him unable to see too far away.
"Mingsha Plain, it is said that every three days a Xun wind will appear, rolling the black sand like a knife." Qu Wuming remembered that Luo Xingchen had mentioned this place to him before, and already knew in his heart that he might want to be here. What are you facing?
If there were no earth escape treasures such as the "falling star" orb, this would be a very dangerous place, because when the Xun wind blows, almost the entire Mingsha Plain will make a whining sound, like a continuous sound. It sounds like thunder, hence the name of this sea of sand.
However, when the Sunda Wind first rises, ordinary monks can barely fly forward in the wind and sand, but if they cannot sneak deep enough into the ground within half the time of burning incense, or among the rocks, After finding a suitable shelter, what awaits him will be the nearly ten-day Sunda Wind Period - during the Sunda Wind Period, it seems that the entire Mingsha Plain's black gravel will be swept up by the Sunda Wind, whistling past Every inch of space here, from more than ten feet underground to a thousand feet high in the sky, no matter where you hide, there will be black sand blowing in the wind everywhere!
Moreover, the most bizarre thing is that the black sand in Mingsha Plain will not be blown elsewhere by the Xun wind, as if there is a huge, invisible cylindrical barrier covering Mingsha Plain, regardless of the Xun wind. No matter how high the wind rolls the black sand, not a grain of sand will fly outside this barrier.
When the Sunda wind period ends, all the black sand will slowly fall again with the wind, returning to the current appearance of a sea of sand and wasteland. It will not be until three days later that the Sunda wind rises again and enters the next cycle.
And those jagged and strange rocks in the sea of sand are not as simple as they look - they look like stones, but they are something that looks like gold but not gold, and looks like jade but not jade. No one knows what they are made of. , I only know that these things, which look no different from the weathered stones in ordinary deserts, are actually extremely hard - even the powerful magic weapons of monks in the Void Refining Stage may not be able to break them easily.
And in the underground of Mingshayuan, there are more such strange rocks as you go down. It is said that there were earth-attribute monks who once explored down to a depth of tens of feet, where such strange rocks have been piled up. It's almost impossible to escape even an inch.
Currently, Qu Wuming has two choices before him.
The first is to cross the Mingsha Plain. After passing the Mingsha Plain, it seems that it is not far from the Ghost Ming Plain.
The second is to bypass the Mingsha Plain, follow the outer boundary of the Mingsha Plain, find the Styx River, and continue to explore upstream. After spending more time, you can reach the Ghost Mingplain.
As for the swamp that Qu Wuming crossed before arriving here, it seems that the upper reaches of the water flow belong to another branch of the Styx River. If he goes back and searches, he will definitely be able to find the direction of the main river of the Styx River.
Qu Wuming looked at it for a moment and calculated the time he spent in the underworld. He couldn't help but sigh secretly and said to himself: "It seems like the safest detour option, but in fact there is no choice at all. . Time is limited, there is no time for so many detours... It would have been nice if I could have taken a picture of the map of the Underworld Realm, instead of only knowing Guimingyuan, a place that produces soul-nurturing crystals."
Thinking of this, Qu Wuming used the "Falling Star" orb to form a yellow barrier to protect him, and then turned into a ray of light, flying directly in the air, and flew straight to the depths of Mingsha Plain.
A moment later, Qu Wuming passed by a strange rock. On a whim, he suddenly pulled out a seventh-level sword, and with a little push, he stabbed straight at the strange rock.
There was a crisp clang sound, and the fairy sword was like a kitchen knife piercing an iron plate, sparks flew out, and then it pierced into the black sand with a pop.
Looking at the strange rocks, there was not even a scratch left.
Qu Wuming couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. You must know that although this fairy sword is not of the highest grade, but under his own urging, the stab just now is comparable to the late stage of God Transformation or even the peak of God Transformation. The monk struck casually, but the strange rock was unscathed!
Qu Wuming couldn't help but be curious. He suddenly lowered his escape light and raised his hand to pick up the fairy sword. He looked carefully at the tip of the sword and found that there was a small curl on the tip of the sword. He couldn't help but wonder about the strange stone. The hardness was staggering again.
"I want to see how hard you are!" Qu Wuming became curious. He held the hilt of his sword and came to the strange rock. He used all his strength to aim at a delicate spot on the strange rock and suddenly swung his sword. .
This sword was not blessed by any magic power, it was purely the power of Qu Wuming's physical body.
If it were normal, with Qu Wuming's current powerful physical strength, this sword, even if it is an ordinary warrior's long sword, is enough to cut gold and jade, not to mention cutting off a stone.
However, when the sword was swung out at this time, Qu Wuming felt a huge shock in his hand. When he heard a crisp sound in his ear, the tiger's mouth and wrist suddenly went numb. Before Qu Wuming could take a closer look, Check, the long sword has been broken into several pieces with a clang!
"Ah?!" Qu Wuming couldn't help but waved his hand and threw the broken fairy sword on the ground. Looking at his tiger's mouth, he saw that two big holes had been broken by the shock, and blood immediately flowed out.
Looking at the location where the strange stone was cut, it seemed that there was only a shallow white mark less than an inch long. Qu Wuming squinted his eyes and took a closer look. He couldn't help but raise his hand and touch it. The white mark was easily erased by Qu Wuming - it seemed that the white mark was not a scar on the strange rock at all, but came from the sword!
"It's such a hard stone!" Qu Wuming thought, and a stream of heat surged out from the Dantian, along the meridians to the crack in the tiger's mouth. After a while, the cracked wound was automatically kneaded together, and the bleeding stopped immediately. live.
Qu Wuming raised his other hand and gently pressed it on the boulder, intending to pick it up using the art of controlling objects. However, he was surprised to find that the strange boulder seemed to have no power over his own magic power and spiritual consciousness. Reaction - If it were an ordinary stone, after pouring mana into it, he could cast a spell to pick it up, but this strange stone seemed to disappear without a trace, just like a mud cow entering the sea, no matter how much mana he poured into it.
Suddenly, a black flame rose up from Qu Wuming's palm. It was the most powerful magic attack that Qu Wuming currently controlled in his natural state, besides the natal flame of the turtle - the Hongmeng Dark Thunder Fire.
I saw the Hongmeng Dark Thunder Fire accompanied by a trace of electric arc, roaring towards the strange rock. With Qu Wuming's deliberate blessing, the flame blasted on the strange rock with scorching high temperature, and even the surrounding The air was instantly distorted by the heat.
However, after burning for several breaths, there was no change on the strange rock.
If it were an ordinary piece of bluestone, it would have been burned to ashes by the Hongmeng Dark Thunder Fire!
Qu Wuming was unwilling to give in, and silently recited the magic formula in his heart. A gust of wind suddenly appeared next to Qu Wuming. The wind assisted the fire, blowing the Hongmeng Dark Thunder Fire like a jet of fire. The temperature in the center of the fireworks suddenly increased several times again. more than.
However, the place burned by the flames remained unchanged.
Qu Wuming put away the flame and tentatively touched the area that had been burning for a long time. He was surprised to find that the area was cold to the touch - exactly the same as when he touched it before, as if it had never been burned by flames before. Same thing.
At this time, Qu Wuming's interest in the materials of these strange rocks had risen to a very high level, and he even temporarily forgot that the legendary and terrifying Xun wind might blow here at any time.
Qu Wuming took half a step forward, stretched out his arms to hold the strange stone in his arms, and suddenly tried hard to pull it out for a look, but the force did not matter, and his feet immediately stepped into the black sand. , but the strange stone didn't move at all.
Qu Wuming probed the power of his spiritual consciousness downwards. Only after this exploration did he find that there was actually a long section under the strange rock, and it became thicker as he went down. The power of his spiritual consciousness extended to two or three feet underground. It was difficult for Yao to go deeper, but even when he reached that depth, he still couldn't find the foundation of this strange rock.
Qu Wuming activated the "Falling Star" orb, turning it into a yellow light group and diving downwards. He was surprised to find that the detection power of the "Falling Star" orb was actually limited in the surrounding black gravel - effective detection. The range seems to be extremely compressed, and it can only barely detect an area of about two to three feet nearby.
Carefully, he went down more than seventy feet, until the huge rocks of the same material below were almost blocking all the way down. When it was difficult to go deeper, Qu Wuming discovered the strange rock just now. The foundation is still in the gaps of those huge rocks, and I don’t know how deep it extends.
Qu Wuming activated the "Falling Star" orb and wandered around for a moment on what seemed to be the bottom of the Mingsha Plain, and found more than ten thick stone pillars that looked like trees rising from the underground stone bed. It rises and extends straight upward. The closer it is to the ground, the more pitted and bizarre the surface of the stone pillars will become. However, at places twenty or thirty feet below the ground, the surfaces of these stone pillars are almost flat and smooth.
It seems that the range of the black sand swept by the Sunda Wind can reach more than twenty feet underground at most. With the "Falling Star" orb in hand, it shouldn't be difficult to escape the terrifying Xun wind.
Qu Wuming felt relieved and couldn't help but rush out of the ground again. He flew forward in the air. After flying for about half an hour, he finally saw an expected stone pillar in the distance and hurriedly flew towards it. …
It was a stone pillar that had been polished by the Xun wind and had a strange shape.
The top of the stone pillar looks like a mushroom head, about the size of a millstone, and the bottom of the mushroom head gradually becomes slender, thinking it is a thick wooden stick with a slightly unstraight shape. The middle part of the entire stone pillar is the slenderest, about the thickness of the mouth of a cup, and then it starts to become thicker again. From a distance, it looks like a conical stone pillar with a length of about ten feet. The huge mallet...
