After experiencing this calamity, Fu Yunge was so tired that he had no strength at all. He lay flat on the ground and gasped for a long time. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and finally confirmed that he had escaped.
The sun had risen under the sand dunes. Under the sunlight, he immediately saw the terrifying sand wall scene that the old man had mentioned.
At this time, the sand wall has been completely formed. The sky-high sand wall stretches far away, and the sharp sound of the wind can be heard clearly even from such a distance.
Looking from a distance, the slowly rolling sand flow on the periphery is really like a huge mouth swallowing people, magnificent and extremely terrifying.
He sat on the ground and recalled the feeling of narrowly escaping death just now, still feeling frightened.
After resting for a while, Fu Yunge finally regained his strength and stood up, patting the yellow sand all over his body. His whole body was now covered in sand, and he looked like an artifact that had just been dug out of a ruins.
The sun was already shining down high, and it looked like it was only a short distance away from the sweeping clouds. Fu Yunge raised his face and glanced at the sun, seeming to feel the value of the light.
After taking a short rest, he quickly turned around and continued moving forward. He could not waste time.
Beiyi Snow Desert is coming soon.
…………
Qingyuan Realm, Golden Halberd Fengjian, is imminent.
It has been clouded for days, and the leaden sky seems to be covered with a veil. The air was moist, as if it was indicating a heavy rain.
In the Longji Sect, while everyone was making preparations, they were still paying attention to the whereabouts of the great elder. Long Hao and others were ready to return, but in the end they found nothing.
More people have gradually lost confidence, believing that the great elder must have died in the mountain fire. Even the leader who was so steadfast at the beginning gradually wavered in his inner thoughts.
The Great Elder, this is their Dragon Halberd’s strongest backing and their long-term confidence. But now such information is like a collapsed beam to them, and the atmosphere of uneasiness is unprecedentedly intense.
"well……"
In front of the dinner table, Long Tao peered at the head of the house sighing through the candlelight, as if he was extremely old, and couldn't help but feel extremely tormented in his heart.
He has talked with the great elder many times in the past few days.
The great elder's reluctance to show up was not without reason. Back then, when his Yuan Gong was about to be completed, he was attracted by thunder from the sky, which made him unable to resist. As a result, his entire skill was destroyed, and his years of practice fell short. His Qihai has since been damaged, and he has become a complete invalid.
"My appearance in this manner will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to you who are actively preparing for various matters. You are now too busy to do anything, so I shouldn't cause trouble for you at this time."
"When the Golden Halberd Fengjian comes to an end and the Dragon Halberd returns to normal, I will show up to meet with everyone."
Long Tao's mind flashed back and forth with scenes of the Great Elder talking to him, and in front of him was the scene of everyone's despair. He felt as if he, who knew the truth, had been drawn into a whirlpool, swirling back and forth, constantly enduring the pain from both sides.
He was very hesitant, but he was unwilling to go against the wishes of the great elder and tell everyone the truth, and such a cruel conclusion did not seem to change everyone's negative attitude. But he remained silent because he couldn't bear to see the leader look so sad.
At this time, a disciple came in carrying dishes. He walked around the head, went to the seat next to Long Tao, and put the dishes on the table.
"Thank you." Long Tao raised his head habitually, but somehow he felt a little strange.
It couldn't be said that there was anything strange about it, but he kept looking sideways at the disciple as he walked around the table and left.
"Long Tao." Suddenly, the leader's voice blocked his sight.
Long Tao's body trembled and he quickly looked at the leader.
The leader's expression softened slightly, but was still filled with visible anxiety: "Mirage Guiyun, do you feel the progress is going well?"
Long Tao paused for a moment, then nodded quickly: "Please rest assured, Master, I'll be fine."
Although the leader received his affirmative answer, it was obvious that he was not really relieved yet. He saw that Long Tao was depressed these days, and he always felt that something was on his mind.
"If anything goes wrong, just tell me at any time." The leader finally comforted him gently.
Long Tao nodded, but his heart became more and more uneasy. It seems that the leader has seen the clues from himself. I wonder what the leader will think if he knows the truth.
Outside the door, Dongfang Shiming stood alone.
Facing the moonlight above the cliff, the clear light shines down, and the mottled light and shadow are refracted back and forth among the flowing clouds in the dark night.
He calculated the time carefully in his mind. These days, he has prepared everything secretly. Everything is ready, all he needs is the east wind. If everything goes well, he will definitely succeed.
The night breeze blows, and the moist water vapor gradually gathers into mist at night. The hazy moon shadow lingered among the clouds and mist, gradually becoming silent among the cliffs.
In the middle of the night, Sect Master Qing and a few close friends stood under the eaves of Fengji, looking at the same moonlight in the distance, but they had completely different moods.
They were looking for something in their sight. After standing for a long time, I still couldn't see the thing returning.
"Master, it's... the time has passed." After a long time, a person behind Qingyan couldn't wait any longer and whispered to Qingyan.
Qingyan clasped his hands behind his back, with a slightly impatient look on his face.
"It must be tired from running back and forth these days, and it coincides with the mountain fog. Wait patiently."
He had no choice but to deal with it casually.
