Chapter 1 Barren Land
When Xi'er opened her eyes, she saw a dazzling starry sky, but the arrangement of the stars was completely different from that of the Misty Heaven.
Thank goodness! Being able to see the starry sky at least proves that she didn't fall into a spatial rift, where strong winds are said to blow year-round, and ordinary people who fall in wouldn't survive more than three seconds.
Even those with cultivation levels will find it difficult to survive for long, as the spatial gales will continuously cut through your protective shield until you exhaust your spiritual power and die.
In a moment of relief, Xi'er suddenly felt as if her body was bound by something.
Turning my gaze away from the sky, I realized that I was wrapped up in layers, like a giant purple rice dumpling.
What's going on?
Xi'er's first reaction was to summon Da Cai and Xiao Cai, but the response was that they were both asleep.
Xi'er panicked immediately.
Since she made a pact with them as an infant, she has never lost contact with them for a single moment.
Even when they are about to go into a deep sleep, they will inform her in advance.
But why did they fall into a deep sleep so silently this time?
Looking at the thing that had wrapped itself up like a rice dumpling, it looked like a piece of purple rag, or maybe purple... seaweed?
Xi'er's mind finally became completely clear.
Isn't this the true form of Zi Ling, the high priest of the Fairy Demon Clan whom she recently contracted?
She remembered that in the teleportation channel, the channel suddenly became unstable, causing a huge tremor, and then the channel shattered, throwing her out.
Judging from how Zi Ling wrapped her up in layers with her true form, it's not hard to deduce that they actually fell into a spatial rift.
He made this choice to protect her from harm, even at the cost of his life.
Actually, she made a contract with Zi Ling on impulse, and afterwards she was a little worried, afraid that Zi Ling would betray her and kill her master, after all, her cultivation was far inferior to Zi Ling's.
The master being weak and the servant being strong inherently carries the risk of backlash, but she has Da Cai and Xiao Cai who can help suppress Zi Ling, so the risk is not too great.
Moreover, she has the full support of her family, so she's not afraid of what trouble Zi Ling might cause.
But now, with her family out of contact and Da Cai and Xiao Cai in a deep sleep, will Zi Ling still remain loyal to her?
Don't be afraid, after all, there's still the soul contract.
Besides, Zi Ling is probably seriously injured right now, so even if he wanted to kill his master, he wouldn't choose this critical moment.
After mentally preparing herself, Xi'er immediately took out the super communication jade slip that her brother had given her. It was specially engraved for her and was said to have a communication range of up to 5,000 miles.
However, after the communication jade slip was activated, the spiritual light only flashed a few times before automatically extinguishing.
According to my brother, this situation could only occur in a place devoid of spirits.
Xi'er wasn't too discouraged. From the day she decided to go to the Dust Continent with her family, her mother had repeatedly warned her.
It's a barren land, so be prepared for all sorts of wilderness survival.
For this reason, her mother even gave her and her brother a five-day wilderness survival course.
Now, the first thing she needs to do is observe her surroundings.
As far as the eye could see, there was only a barren wasteland, not even a single weed in sight.
Extending my divine sense to explore further, I discovered several small puddles with very murky water mixed with mud and sand.
On the surface of the puddle, there seemed to be some soft plants floating, but they were not clearly visible, and it was impossible to determine their species.
Xi'er tried the storage function of the hollow bracelet's space again and found that the items stored inside could be taken out.
This was finally the first good news she received after waking up.
Of all things under the heavens, eating is the most important thing, so Xi'er decided to fill her little tummy first.
As for the rest—I won't look, I won't listen, I don't want to!
