Chapter 364: Desert Journey

In the desert Gobi, the wind is as fierce as a knife, and an endless sea of ​​sand is in sight. Except for the occasional camel bell, it is lifeless.

But today, in the desert that is rarely visited all year round, a few figures suddenly appeared. They walked forward quickly, and despite the biting cold wind, they still could not move at all. One look at them showed that they were people with profound merits and successful cultivation.

"Brother Ye, look, the basin shrouded in wind and sand in front of you is where the forbidden method is."

Among the group of five people, a man holding an iron bone fan pointed in front, with a smile on his face, and said to another young man in black clothes next to him.

This group of people was naturally Ye Chunyang and others who came out of the small town.

Before coming out, Ye Chunyang never expected that due to the terrain, flying at high altitudes in this desert was not allowed, otherwise the spiritual energy fluctuations would cause sandstorms. In desperation, they had no choice but to walk, and they had been walking for several hours now.

Fortunately, they are all people with profound cultivation, and their footwork alone is beyond the reach of ordinary people. At this moment, they have walked nearly thirty miles.

Hearing what Li Mochen was pointing out, Ye Chunyang raised his head and saw a basin not far ahead surrounded by sand dunes. Yellow mist shrouded it. It looked like a natural fog, but in fact it was violent wind and sand, and it was faintly hidden in the basin. It exudes forbidden fluctuations, which are obscure and mysterious and difficult to detect by those without strong spiritual consciousness.

He stopped, looked around and was secretly surprised. In such a windy and sandy place, it would be difficult for a mortal to get out of it even if he strayed into it.

Taoist Tie Chi and the White Cave Master and his wife also stopped and stared at the basin in front of them. They had been here once and were not surprised by this scene. They just stood on the sand dunes and looked down. A hint of palpitations flashed in their eyes. , obviously I suffered a big loss here last time.

"Brother Ye, can you find the entrance to the forbidden method?" The White Cave Master turned to Ye Chunyang and said.

Ye Chunyang pondered for a while and said: "The forbidden laws here are extremely obscure, and I need to carefully detect them."

As soon as he finished speaking, he released his spiritual consciousness, put everything into his mind, stretched out his body and fell downwards.

Everyone hesitated for a while and then followed suit.

After landing in the basin, Ye Chunyang paused slightly, looked around and then his eyes flashed, then turned to Li Mochen and said: "You guys wait here, I will go into the formation to explore the situation."

Li Mochen was startled, but after a moment of hesitation, he stopped and said solemnly: "The forbidden laws here are not trivial. Brother Ye must be careful."

Ye Chunyang nodded without saying much. After casting the protective shield, he slowly walked towards the wind and sand, and his figure gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

Taoist Tie Chi raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a while, he wanted to follow again, but at this time, the Bai Cave Master stopped him.

"Brother Bai, what do you mean?" Taoist Tiechi asked coldly, his face slightly condensed.

"Tiechi Daoist, please be patient." Bai Cave Master frowned and said, "You and I have not learned the forbidden method here. Entering hastily may trigger the forbidden formation, and then we will fall into a place of no return. "

"But..." Knowing that he had misunderstood the Baidong Master, Taoist Tiechi apologized slightly, but was still a little hesitant.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Ye dares to enter the battle alone. I guess he has some means. Instead of following him into danger, it is better to wait here quietly." Bai Cave Master said with half-squinted eyes.

Taoist Tie Chi's eyes flickered, and he was weighing something secretly in his heart, and then whispered: "Brother Bai, it's not that I don't believe in Fellow Taoist Ye, it's just that if he really breaks the forbidden law, we will become onlookers."

The White Cave Masters looked at each other in silence.

"Don't worry, you three. From what I know about Brother Ye, he is by no means a treacherous and shameless person. Don't worry, you three, just wait here." Seeing the suspicion on the faces of the three of them, Li Mochen couldn't help but sneer.

He was more worried about Ye Chunyang's safety than the three people's suspicions, but considering the latter's vast magical powers, he must have been confident in his decision to go deep into the forbidden law alone.

Thinking of this, he let go of his worries a little.

At the same time, a piece of yellow sand came into view in the basin, making it impossible to see clearly ten steps away.

Ye Chunyang gradually reached the center of the basin, and touched his eyes with his two fingers. After a rainbow light flashed, his vision recovered a little.

But just after he saw the scene in front of him clearly, a look of shock suddenly appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but retract his steps.

Not far ahead, there were dozens of jet black stone pillars, arranged in a complex formation.

It's not necessarily true that they are stone pillars, because each pillar only exposes half an inch of the ground, and the other end is buried deep in the ground. The surface of the pillars is as smooth as a mirror, and the reflected light interweaves into a mysterious array in the air, covering the surrounding area. Covered for several miles, standing at the edge and staring, I saw strange fluctuations in the formation, revealing a cold murderous intent.

Seeing this scene, Ye Chunyang couldn't help but take a breath. Fortunately, he retreated in time, otherwise he would have narrowly escaped death if he entered this magic circle.

He looked around and found that the stone pillars here seemed calm and motionless, but those who were proficient in formation techniques could see that each stone pillar was actually moving slowly, but the moving trajectory was mysterious and slow, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect.

Ye Chunyang frowned, thinking that this was the forbidden method that discouraged Bai Cave Master and the other three.

In fact, his choice to go deep here alone is not audacious, but no matter whether this formation is breakable or not, he does not want others to see his true identity. Now he is alone here, and no matter what method he uses, outsiders cannot know.

At this moment, looking at the dozens of stone pillars that had broken out of the ground, Ye Chunyang looked thoughtful, and he had made up his mind for a moment.

Looking up at the sky, he waved his hand and held out a formation disk.

It was the Oblivion Spirit Formation obtained from the hands of Old Demon Chengwei.

…

Time passed little by little, and before you knew it, the sun was setting in the west, replaced by the coldness and silence of the night.

After nightfall, the wind in the desert became even stronger, and the only thing that could be heard was the howling of the wind. If one did not sense it with his spiritual consciousness, he would not be able to hear any movement within ten feet.

Outside the basin, the four of them, Li Mochen, were sitting cross-legged. Although they were practicing separately, they were obviously anxious.

"Six or seven hours have passed, but Fellow Daoist Ye has no news from anyone, and I don't know what the situation is."

Mrs. Bai stood up and glanced at the sandy place, with a hint of worry on her pretty face.

"Hmph! Don't die in there." Taoist Tie Chi said expressionlessly.

Hearing this, Li Mochen raised his brows slightly, but did not open his mouth to refute. It was not because he was afraid of the other party's cultivation, but because there was no point in speaking out for a while.

After thinking about it, he stood up straight and said, "Master Bai Cave, if we don't go in and take a look, I'm really worried."

Bai Dongzhu is a relatively prudent person in the group. Even if he has other thoughts, he will always focus on the overall situation before entering the strange place, so Li Mochen seeks his opinion.

But at this time, the White Cave Master was unmoved, with a solemn expression on his face.

After a long time, he exhaled and said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Li, it's not like we haven't tried the power of the forbidden law here. If we go in rashly, if we accidentally break through the forbidden area, it will cause trouble to Fellow Daoist Ye. In my opinion, we should try again." Wait, so as not to disturb Fellow Daoist Ye from breaking the formation."

Li Mochen frowned and was about to say something, but the other party smiled at him first and said: "Furthermore, didn't Fellow Daoist Li say that Fellow Daoist Ye is proficient in the art of formation? Since he dared to enter the formation on his own, he must have some means. I would advise Fellow Daoist to Don’t be impatient, just wait patiently.”

Hearing this, Li Mochen couldn't help but secretly cursed the other party as a villain. These people looked sanctimonious, but he didn't expect them to be so selfish. They expected others to break the formation so they could benefit from it, but when it came to entering the formation to check, they refused. It was simply shameless. To the extreme.

Sighing, Li Mochen felt helpless and could only continue to wait patiently, hoping that Ye Xiaobao would be safe inside.

After thinking this, he sat back down.

This night was destined to be difficult to calm down, but surprisingly no one spoke in the basin here, making this silent night even more strange.

But fortunately, even though the wind and sand roared one night, there were no other accidents. However, until the next day, there was still no movement in the yellow sand, as if the person who entered had been swallowed up.

Seeing that dusk was approaching again, Li Mochen finally couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and without saying anything to the three masters of the White Cave, he sacrificed the magic weapon and entered the yellow sand.

When the three people saw this, they each looked at each other, but no one spoke, let alone stopped them, they just watched with a faint sneer.

Li Mochen ignored them. He was worried about Ye Chunyang's safety. Even though there were many dangers in this forbidden law, he could never just watch something happen to him.

But something happened suddenly, and in an instant, a sheet of wild sand rose up all over the sky. The four of them heard a roaring sound. The sound was several times more shocking than before, and the yellow sand in the basin swept away more rapidly. It seems as if some huge change has occurred.

The White Cave Master and his wife, as well as Taoist Tie Chi Taoist, were all shocked. They quickly stood up and looked around. They saw that the sky was dark, the wind was howling, and the setting sun was covered by the yellow sand in the sky, and rolled towards the sky. In this moment, it was already It's coming straight towards here in an overwhelming force.

"No, it's a sandstorm!"

The Bai Cave Master's face changed wildly, and Li Mochen was also stunned, his face full of surprise.

"How is it possible? I have already calculated before that the sandstorm will appear at least three days later. Even if we cannot break the formation, it will be enough for us to evacuate safely. Now that the time limit has not come, how can the sandstorm appear in advance?"

It was rare for Taoist Tie Chi to say a few more words, but his face was very ugly.

Sandstorms are the most terrifying natural disasters in the desert, and he doesn't think they can compete with them with their cultivation.

"Man's calculations are not as good as God's. Things are unpredictable in the desert. No matter how sophisticated our fortune-telling techniques are, we cannot detect the secrets of heaven. Right now, we still need to find ways to escape as soon as possible."

The veins on Bai Cave Master's forehead were pulsing, and his eyes were filled with nervousness.

As he spoke, he and his wife wanted to control the treasure and retreat.

Taoist Tiechi glanced at the yellow sand in the basin, and struggled in his heart. It was true that there were ancient treasures here, but life was more important. At the same time, he and the White Cave Master and his wife cast spells to prepare for evacuation.

Seeing the three people fleeing from the battlefield, Li Mochen gritted his teeth and cursed secretly.

He stared at the raging sandstorm ahead, then looked back at the yellow sand in the basin behind him. After a flash in his eyes, he suddenly jumped into the yellow sand.

Li Mochen knew that he could not withstand the sandstorm, but at least he had to inform Ye Chunyang of the situation and evacuate with him.
