Shen Luo and Fu Donglai walked towards the southeast. Half a month later, they arrived at the southwest part of the Southern Viewing Department Continent. A desert appeared in front of them, and waves of hot air blew towards them.
The two of them stood at the edge of the desert and looked ahead. They discovered that the desert was vast and boundless. Further away, they could faintly see some rolling hills, which were also made of the same yellow sand. The continuous yellow sand was connected to the horizon, and it was impossible to see where the end was.
The sky was gray, and the ground was yellow. Other than gray and yellow, there were no other colors.
"That's strange. If we continue forward, we will reach the Southern Sea. The climate there should be very humid. Why would there be such a huge desert?" Fu Donglai asked curiously.
"It is indeed strange that the Boundless Desert appeared here. Many sects have sent people here to investigate, but they could not find the reason," Shen Luo said as he looked into the distance.
"Oh, Brother Shen has been here before?" Fu Donglai looked at Shen Luo in surprise.
"No, but in order to find out where the Tianji City is, I looked up some information about the Boundless Desert," Shen Luo said as he looked away.
"Are you saying that the Tianji City is in this desert? Why does it look so barren? "Fu Donglai scratched the back of his head and asked in confusion.
"I got the information from Wu Zhuang Guan that the Tianji City is in the depths of the Boundless Desert. However, the Tianji City is very mysterious. Although it often does business with the various sects in the Three Realms, its location has always been a secret. I don't know where it is in the Boundless Desert. I'm afraid we will have to search for it," Shen Luo said as he smiled helplessly.
"Hehe, after hearing what you said, I am even more interested in the Tianji City. Let's go in and search for it, "Fu Donglai urged as he rubbed his hands.
"We definitely have to go in. However, the Boundless Desert is not as calm as it looks. We have to be careful when we go in," Shen Luo said in a serious tone.
"Are you saying that there is danger inside? Is it a Demonic Beast or a sandstorm? "Not only was Fu Donglai not afraid, his eyes were shining brightly, as if he was eager to give it a try.
"I don't know exactly what kind of danger it is, but I've heard that people who enter the Boundless Sand Sea often mysteriously disappear. It's best to be careful." Shen Luo smiled bitterly.
Ever since he left Lion Camel Ridge, Fu Donglai's temperament began to change. Although he was still steady most of the time, he gradually showed a radical and impulsive side.
"Don't worry, I know what to do." Fu Donglai waved his hand, as if he didn't care.
Shen Luo sighed inwardly and didn't say anything more. He took the lead and flew into the depths of the desert. Fu Donglai followed closely behind.
Not far away, a yellow sand lizard crawled out of the ground and glanced in the direction of Shen Luo and Fu Donglai. Then, it turned around and crawled back into the sand with a swish.
Shen Luo and Shi Mu stepped into the desert. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew. Rolling sand and dust danced in the air. Soon, the two figures were swallowed up by the wind.
The sky gradually darkened and the sun set in the west.
Shen Luo and Fu Donglai not only didn't find the Tianji City, but they also didn't see a single person. As far as the eye could see, there was still an endless expanse of yellow sand. There wasn't a single trace of green or human habitation.
Night fell and the stars hung low. The temperature of the Boundless Sand Sea, which was originally as hot as fire, plummeted. It was as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
At this time, the two found a huge sand dune to sit down and rest.
"Brother Shen, we've been going around in circles for an entire day. It feels the same no matter where we go. Could we have gone in the wrong direction?" Fu Donglai couldn't help but ask as he gnawed on a chicken leg.
"That's not true. I've been paying attention to my surroundings, so I won't get lost. It's just that the Boundless Sand Sea is too big, and very few people come here. There's no map, so it's not easy to identify the location. "Shen Luo took out a bottle of spirit wine and took a sip.
During the day, the deeper they went into the desert, the higher the temperature. Although he and Fu Donglai could withstand the heat with their cultivation level, they couldn't help but feel thirsty after traveling for an entire day.
Fu Donglai finished a chicken drumstick, then took out some spirit wine and took a big gulp, looking quite annoyed.
"Brother Fu, are you alright?" Shen Luo looked at Fu Donglai and asked.
"I'm fine? Why do you ask? "Fu Donglai asked curiously.
"Brother Fu, your words and actions are very different from before. Don't you feel it?" Shen Luo said slowly.
"Do I? I don't feel anything, "Fu Donglai said as he looked at his own body.
"As long as Brother Fu thinks you're fine." Shen Luo didn't ask any more questions.
At this moment, a whistling sound came from the desert ahead. Shen Luo looked up and raised his eyebrows.
A tumbling yellow cloud appeared at the end of the desert and quickly swept toward them. It was a yellow sandstorm that connected the sky and the earth.
"Hey, it's here again. How many waves is this?" Fu Donglai said.
The two of them didn't dodge. Their bodies lit up with gold and blue light. The sandstorm swept over them, and the two of them were nailed to the ground like nails. They weren't affected by the sandstorm at all.
Shen Luo and Fu Donglai had experienced this type of sandstorm several times since they entered the Boundless Desert. They were already familiar with its power. They didn't try to fly away and tried to pass through the sandstorm.
This sandstorm wasn't very powerful, but it covered a wide area. It was impossible to distinguish between north and south. Flying around randomly would only confuse them.
The sandstorm lasted for about 15 minutes and gradually weakened.
Shen Luo frowned. Fu Donglai also looked up at the sky ahead.
A cold and gloomy aura quickly approached from the front. In just a few breaths, it had arrived. The owner of the gloomy aura seemed to have sensed Shen Luo and Fu Donglai's presence. After hesitating for a moment, it ferociously charged over.
"Humph, you're courting death!" Fu Donglai snorted and waved his hand. A blood-red light shot out of his hand and disappeared into the sandstorm.
A mournful scream came out of the sandstorm. Then, it quickly disappeared into the distance.
"Huh? It could dodge my Bloodshed Dry Axe? "Fu Donglai was surprised. He waved his hand and recalled the blood-red axe. He didn't attack again.
"You've already injured it. Don't you want to kill it?" Shen Luo asked.
He saw the appearance of the attacker through his spirit sense. It was a strange grey bird. It had the head of an ape and the body of a bird. It had a pair of furry ape arms under its five-feet-long wings. Its two eyes were rolling. It seemed to be quite intelligent. Its voice was full of resentment. It seemed that it would take revenge.
"This beast escaped my attack. It's his good fortune. I'll spare its life," Fu Donglai waved his hand and said casually.
