Chapter 117 Journey
Chapter 117 Journey
puff~
A pale foot trod on the sand, making a rustling sound.
Another corpse.
The scholar in white stared expressionlessly at the unseeing corpse, his eyes showing no surprise whatsoever.
He had seen several corpses along the way, and each one had despair in their eyes before they died.
Most of them were slaves who had escaped from bandit post stations. Despite regaining their freedom, they could not survive. This desolate desert was like a hell, and it was impossible for those without extraordinary abilities to walk out alive.
All that awaited them was death and being torn apart by various creatures.
The scholar in white had been traveling for about four or five days since he left the post station. The fact that he hadn't seen any signs of human habitation after such a long journey was enough to prove how vast this desert was.
It is worth mentioning that before he set off, Lin Tian had given him a camel. After the bandits died, their camels were also taken care of by Lin Tian.
Lin Tian discovered that these camels were truly amazing—they ran fast, ate little, weren't picky eaters, and got full easily! They were truly indispensable for home and travel!
To improve efficiency, the scholar in white naturally mounted a camel. Of course, he had never learned to ride a camel before. The camel was initially quite uncooperative, constantly shaking the stranger off.
But when the white-robed scholar glared at the camel with his chilling, snake-like eyes, the camel gradually became docile.
The camel was not slow; it was much faster than him walking. But unfortunately, the desert was not peaceful.
Monsters frequently attacked them along the way. Although the white-robed scholar was powerful enough to defeat them one by one, the camel was not an ordinary creature.
He eventually died a heroic death in a battle, after which the white-robed scholar had to walk, which slowed him down considerably.
His Qi Sea was full, so even though he walked a long way, he didn't feel very tired.
After glancing casually at the corpse, the scholar in white prepared to continue forward.
However, at that moment, a sudden rustling sound came from the sand, and a sandworm burst out of the ground, its target the white-robed scholar!
The white-robed scholar's eyes narrowed, and with a casual sidestep, he dodged the attack. Then, a white snake emerged from his sleeve, which instantly transformed into a long spear.
Swish!
Dodging the attack from the side, before the sandworm could burrow into the sand, the white-robed scholar raised his spear and swung it, unleashing a water blade!
Pfft!
A spurt of blood shot out, and the sandworm was instantly cleaved in two by the water blade, falling to the ground.
With his current strength, he can easily defeat these guys; they can't even last a single move against him.
Seeing that the sandworm was dead, he prepared to put away his spear and continue on his way, but at that moment, he felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, just as he was about to put away his spear, three figures suddenly emerged from the sand. The white-robed scholar looked closely and saw that they were all sand worms of considerable size!
The three sand worms shot out from different angles, seemingly wanting to strangle the white-robed scholar!
But the white-robed scholar was no ordinary man. His eyes narrowed, and he began to dodge. Like a nimble water snake, he dodged and weaved amidst the relentless attacks of the three sand worms, who could not strike him no matter how they attacked.
Pfft!
The moment the snake spear is unleashed, a life is lost!
With a swift turn and a slash, another life was lost to the water blade!
In just about a minute, only two of the three sandworms remained. The remaining one, seeing how ferocious the creature was, burrowed into the sand to try and escape.
However, the white-robed scholar would not let him off so easily. He took three steps in two, leaped up, raised the snake spear in his hand, and forcefully stabbed at the sand worm.
With a soft "thud," the tip of the gun was instantly stained red with blood!
However, this sandworm was quite resilient; even after being shot by the white-robed scholar, it still had the strength to escape!
Driven by intense pain, he actually dragged the white-robed scholar in one direction and ran away!
The white-robed scholar remained completely calm, his eyes filled with coldness as he continued to thrust his spear deeper into the ground.
Let's see how long you can hold out!
Pfft!
Another stabbing sound rang out, and the sandworm suffered another heavy blow. Finally, it could no longer withstand the attack and its speed gradually slowed down.
A while later, he too became a victim of the white-robed scholar's spear.
The scholar in white pulled out the spearhead and wiped away the blood. His expression was calm; he had experienced countless battles like this in recent days.
Speaking of which, where did this guy take me?
boom!
Just as the scholar in white was wondering, a loud noise rang out. He looked up and saw dust billowing in the distance, with loud noises coming from all directions, seemingly from some kind of giant object.
what is that.
.....................
boom!
Jeli punched a huge body with all his might, but the body only trembled slightly before retaliating with force.
boom!
Jerry, who was already at the peak of the Bronze level, was instantly knocked away and rolled to his side.
"Jelli! Are you alright?!"
Seeing Jerry being knocked over, everyone asked with concern.
"fine."
"cough!"
Jerry coughed and got up from the ground; clearly, he wasn't in as good a condition as expected.
Jeli stared in horror at the enormous body before him; the monster's strength far exceeded his expectations.
It was a colossal, extraordinary sand worm, about ten meters long and four or five meters wide, giving off a sense of oppression even from a distance.
"Damn it."
Jerry cursed under his breath. This guy was definitely on the verge of breaking through. Otherwise, how could he, as a warrior and still at the peak of the Bronze level, not be able to suppress this guy?
I thought it would just be an ordinary order, but I never expected to encounter such a monster.
What incredibly bad luck!
There were also two diviners in this escort team, but neither of them were combat-oriented and could not provide much help.
Jeremy racked his brains trying to figure out how to break the current situation, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with any other way to stop this guy.
"Don't just stand there! Hurry up!"
Not far from them, a chubby man with squinty eyes kept urging Jeremy to get moving, which only made him more irritable.
"Shut up!"
"Idiot"
Jeremy couldn't take it anymore and turned around to curse at him. The cursing made the fat man stomp his feet.
But Jerry didn't care about all that. In the past, he might have considered the fat man's status, but now that he was about to die, the fat man was still talking so much.
"So annoying..."
However, just as he turned his head again, the giant sandworm charged at him once more.
Damn!
