Chapter 89: Night in the Desert
In the Western Regions, the yellow sand is endless, the sand dunes are connected, and the waves are like ripples, swaying in the wind.
In the distant sky, several sword lights cut through the sky.
The disciples who were flying with swords suddenly threw Qiao Yuanshan and others down from a height of more than ten meters.
Qiao Yuanshan immediately released the force in mid-air, then landed steadily on the desert, creating a large hole in the desert.
But he was prepared, but his other junior brothers and sisters might not be.
“Ouch!”
Several junior brothers and sisters were thrown heavily onto the sand dunes, but fortunately, given their physical fitness, they were only in pain for a while.
"Brother Luo, why did you do this all of a sudden?"
Junior Sister Wang somersaulted several times on the sand pile before stopping and asked quickly.
Senior Brother Luo laughed: "Why? This is the rule of Quanzhen. The first time I take you to fly a sword, I will make you fall once."
After saying this, the disciples who were skilled in flying swords laughed.
It was like recalling how I fell down that year.
It's also so embarrassing.
Qiao Yuanshan shook his head. These senior brothers were using them to reminisce about their youth.
But...Qiao Yuanshan looked at the people around him and shook his head.
It is estimated that after many years, his fellow junior brothers and sisters will continue to pass on this method to their future fellow brothers and sisters, and call it inheritance.
The disciples of Quanzhen Sect were the first group to arrive in the Western Regions. According to their senior brothers, except for the sword-flying immortal, the rest were turtles.
So, on the yellow sand of the desert, Qiao Yuanshan had to wait for the turtle with his fellow disciples under the scorching sun.
It was not until the afternoon that all the talents from the five factions arrived.
"Brother Qiao, do you see that guy over at the Tianshi Mansion? He should be Zhang Yixing from the Tianshi Mansion, who is ranked second on the Youngsters Ranking. He's probably looking at your position!"
There was still some redness and swelling on Zhao Yan's face, but it was not noticeable unless you looked carefully.
Ever since he beat up this junior sister, Qiao Yuanshan always felt that there was something strange in the way she looked at him.
Beat him too hard?
Qiao Yuanshan couldn't figure it out either, so he looked in the direction Zhao Yan said.
I saw a young man who was the leader of the Tianshi Mansion sizing up the Quanzhen Sect, but his gaze was not on Qiao Yuanshan, but on his great-uncle Li Mubai.
Are you treating your uncle-master as your own?
This is also quite interesting.
Qiao Yuanshan smiled, but also felt the pressure.
In an age of great contention, even the disciples of Taoism are holding their breath, wanting to compete for supremacy.
The mysterious man known as Bai Xiaosheng sent them all to the arena with a list.
How could they not fight?
According to the master, people in their twenties and thirties are full of youthful energy. It is impossible for them to be pure-hearted and free from desires once they enter Taoism.
How can you let go if you don’t fight for it?
"Don't look at it. This isn't a Daoist competition. We won't fight you directly. We're competing on your performance in this trial."
Senior Brother Luo spoke, causing Qiao Yuanshan and the others to look away.
But Qiao Yuanshan knew that there would be a competition this time. At least as the number one on the Quanzhen Sect's Youngster List, he couldn't lose the Quanzhen name.
In the yellow sand, the people from the Ming Dynasty Nirvana quickly took everyone to the depths of the desert. This was already within the range of activities of wandering souls, and tonight they would search for the ghost town in the depths of the desert.
The endless desert is vast and lofty, majestic and magnificent.
A group of people standing in the desert can't help but look insignificant.
The sun sets in the west, and the deep red sank above the horizon, almost dyeing the desert red.
This originally desolate and tragic scenery was filled with a hint of gloomy coolness.
That was the evil energy overflowing from the ghost town of Loulan.
After the sun sets, the negative energy becomes more obvious, and the blue ghost fire above the desert appears and disappears from time to time.
The yellow sand was reflected in a dark blue color.
Qiao Yuanshan could feel the covetousness in the darkness through the attraction of the Qi in his body.
That kind of gaze follows them like a shadow, as if it is always staring at them from behind.
The next moment, the faint blue flames became brighter and brighter, and in a trance they merged into one.
It was as if the entire desert was on fire; the gloomy and cold light made this place seem like hell.
"Go to where the ghost lights are dense. The wandering spirits here are not important. The ghost town in the desert is our destination this time. These wandering spirits will be our guiding lights."
Luo Tianyun, the true disciple of Taiyi Mountain, spoke.
In his opinion, these wandering souls are just unlucky people who have been assimilated by the ghost town. The ghost town is the only focus.
According to experience passed down from generation to generation, ghost towns are caused by some kind of disaster or foreign object that destroys the entire city.
This kind of ghost town will form a strange ghost den, which can spread, and its most obvious spreading feature is the formation of wandering souls.
As long as the evil spirits are not eradicated, these wandering souls will continue to exist.
Therefore, it is meaningless to face the wandering souls directly, as they cannot be completely killed.
It was not just the Quanzhen Sect that thought this way. The five Taoist sects all quickly passed through the will-o'-the-wisp fire and headed towards the brilliant blue in the distance.
During this period, wandering souls would sometimes appear from the blue ghost fire.
The Taoists killed them one after another. These wandering souls had no intelligence at all and were just walking corpses. It was difficult for them to cause harm to the Taoists in a one-on-one situation.
Qiao Yuanshan also saw these wandering souls and witnessed the strangeness of the monastic world for the first time.
In the dark blue flames, wandering souls with dry bones and flesh connected together seemed to crawl out from the yellow sand of the earth.
Incredibly weird.
However, under the long swords of the crowd, it was as fragile as yellow sand and shattered at the slightest touch.
Under the dim starlight, the desert almost looks like a blue ocean.
The Taoists roamed across the desert, running towards the bright ghost lights.
Qiao Yuanshan and others only felt that the ghost fires were becoming more and more numerous.
The world is like falling into hell.
At this moment, some broken walls and ruins appeared faintly on the yellow sand, which seemed to be the remains of an ancient city.
Above the mountains of sand, there was an indescribable weirdness, as if there was a huge city overlooking everyone.
Qiao Yuanshan looked over.
Is this the ghost town they were looking for?
“Stop!”
Daoyi of the Great Ming Nirvana Organization said loudly.
Everyone slowly stopped.
Luo Tianyun and others felt the weirdness here.
"Is this... a curse?"
"It is estimated that some evil creature buried the entire city under the yellow sand. The resentment of these creatures and the curse of the evil creature gave rise to this ghost town."
No one noticed that under the light of the will-o'-the-wisp, there was a new break on the stone tablet.
The white-robed monk destroyed the stone tablet.
Otherwise, these Taoists would not help him dig out the ghost town after seeing the stone tablet.
The finger joint of the Wood Immortal was a thing that was passed down from the ancient times before the Qin Dynasty, when the path to becoming an immortal was opened. This level of evil objects was not something they could handle.
But the white-robed monks did not abstain from abstinence and did not expect these people to be able to solve the problem.
As long as he could help this ghost town see the light of day again, it would be fine. As for whether most of these people would die or all of them would be wiped out, that was not something he considered.
