The Desert Hermit Crab brought Ling Xiao to an oasis, which made Ling Xiao feel very touched. Although the big guy was a little rough at first, it soon became obedient after being taught a lesson. It even knew that he was thirsty, so it brought him to the oasis.
Well, that was what he thought at first.
It was not until he saw a group of strange-looking scorpion people in the oasis looking at him vigilantly that he realized that the big guy was not doing it for his own good. It had been planning to take revenge on him all along, which was why it brought him to the scorpion nest.
The Desert Hermit Crab dived into the water and laughed proudly.
It was definitely laughter. Ling Xiao was completely sure of that.
'F * ck you!'
Ling Xiao cursed under his breath, thinking that he had been played by a beast.
However, the Desert Hermit Crab's pride did not last long. Ling Xiao pressed his right hand on the ground, and a Shadow Spike pierced the ground and chased after it.
Boom!
The huge roar directly shook the Desert Hermit Crab out of the underground river. When its huge body fell to the ground, it was already broken into pieces.
"Gentlemen, I really had no intention of invading the scorpion people's territory. I was brought here by this beast. I'll leave right now!"
Ling Xiao did not want to fight those scorpion people.
In particular, the female scorpion person seemed to be at least a Tenth Paradise powerhouse. He could not afford to provoke her at all.
Moreover, although the other scorpion people were weak, they were all Celestial Realm powerhouses. If he was surrounded, the consequences would be unimaginable.
As the saying went, a wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. Although Ling Xiao was brave and fearless, it depended on who he was facing.
Fighting head-on despite knowing that he could not win was not courage, but stupidity and recklessness.
However, the reason the scorpion people were so terrifying was that they were not very reasonable.
If you trespassed into their territory, you would die!
On the surface, the female scorpion person did not look much different from a human. It was only when she fought that she would show her half-human, half-scorpion state.
Although these races said that humans were lowly, because the Sacred Dynasty had ruled the Mystic World for tens of thousands of years, in their minds, the human form was still seen as the perfect form.
Therefore, no matter which continent or race one was on, maintaining a human form was something to be proud of.
Only martial artists who were strong enough could do it.
"Hehe, little human brat, you trespassed into someone else's territory and caused such a huge commotion. Do you think you can leave after apologizing? Isn't that a little too insincere? "
That scorpion woman had a very charming appearance. However, after her charming laughter, she attacked mercilessly.
Before she finished speaking, her right hand suddenly flicked lightly, and a strange light that was difficult to be seen by the naked eye shot towards Ling Xiao.
The speed was fast, and the angle was tricky. It was really ruthless.
If one was hit by this poisonous light, even if they didn't die, they would be paralyzed.
It was no wonder that so many cultivators were unwilling to tangle with the scorpion men. They were even unwilling to enter the scorpion men's territory. These scorpion men were truly unreasonable.
However, now that Ling Xiao had made a breakthrough in his cultivation base, his strength had greatly increased. Adding on the fact that he had no intention of escaping unscathed, he was constantly paying attention to the scorpion woman's every move.
When his opponent flicked his right hand, he had already used [Divine Light Travel] and fled to the side.
Whoosh … Pa!
The blue light did not hit Ling Xiao, but it hit the bushes behind Ling Xiao. In the blink of an eye, the originally tenacious desert plants withered and turned black.
Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao's heart could not help but tremble.
Good heavens, this scorpion woman's poison was a little too strong. Her attack was also ruthless. She really wanted to take his life!
"Eh?"
The scorpion woman's attack failed, but she did not immediately attack. Instead, she smiled charmingly and said, "Interesting. According to your human age, you should only be fifteen or sixteen years old. You have delicate features and are very cute. I didn't expect you to be so skilled."
"Sister of the scorpion tribe, I really don't have any hostility towards your tribe. Why do you have to force me?"
Ling Xiao smiled bitterly. He did not dare to delay and fled into the distance.
He could tell that there was no point in trying to reason with these people. These scorpion people were simply unreasonable.
Seeing Ling Xiao's figure suddenly turn into a golden light and flee into the distance, the scorpion woman just smiled. Then, a pipa appeared in her white and delicate hand.
Her slender, jade-like fingers gently strummed the pipa, and then strange music began to play.
A cold aura came from the desert, and there was a constant rustling sound.
At that moment, Ling Xiao felt his scalp go numb. In a hurry, he hurriedly used the Scarlet Sun Feather Raiment, and then shot two Scarlet Sun Awls into the desert.
Flames spurted out from the sand, and several charred objects flew out from the impact.
Only now did Ling Xiao confirm it.
The feeling that made his scalp go numb was from these scorpions hidden in the sand.
These scorpions were not big, only the size of a thumbnail, but their color was a little strange. It was a transparent color that he had never seen before.
Ling Xiao had seen records of these poisonous scorpions in the 'Eternal Divine Pill Scripture' before.
It was said that the venom of these poisonous scorpions could be used to make many powerful poisons and poisonous pills.
Even without any processing, this venom alone was enough to kill a Grotto Heaven realm martial artist on the spot.
"Tsk tsk, little cutie, you're quite capable. You know so much that even Big Sister is not willing to kill you. Now, Big Sister will give you a chance. Become Big Sister's exclusive property, and you might be able to keep your life. Otherwise, how many poisonous scorpions can you kill? "
The scorpion woman let out a seductive and cruel laugh, and then the sound of the pipa became louder and louder.
As the pipa continued to play, more and more rustling sounds came from the sand.
Ling Xiao discovered that the ground that was originally covered in sand was now completely covered by the poisonous scorpions.
They were densely packed, and there were at least tens of thousands of them.
The stinger of each scorpion flickered with a dark blue light.
If Ling Xiao was stung by any one of them, he would definitely be finished. Unless there was a miraculous elixir to detoxify the poison, his life would come to an end.
Looking at the densely packed poisonous scorpions, Ling Xiao had no choice but to float in the air, and goosebumps rose all over his body.
He had experienced many battles, but he had never seen anyone fight like this.
It was no wonder that the Black Crow Empire and the Divine Phoenix Empire wanted to form an alliance with the scorpion tribe.
Summoning so many poisonous scorpions at once in a densely packed crowd really had a terrifying effect of completely turning the tide of the battle.
"Sir Xie Li, we still have proper business to attend to. Why don't we just kill this person?"
The scorpion men who were standing near Xie Li earlier suggested.
They did not seem to care about Ling Xiao at all, and were guarding against an even more terrifying crisis.
