"This summoner probably didn't come in from the outside of the coffin, but from another passageway that leads to the coffin. There must be a way out of this desert …" Xia Pingan also squatted down, his eyes flashing with the brilliance of wisdom. He used his hand to stroke the silver skull, and at the same time, used his soulforce to carefully examine the silver skeleton.
If the owner of this silver skeleton was a Soul Master, then even after ten thousand years, Xia Pingan would still be able to feel the traces left behind by a powerful Soul Master. This kind of trace was similar to magnetization. Anything that existed would definitely leave a trace. Unfortunately, there was only a trace of divine power left on this skeleton. There were no traces left behind by a powerful Soul Master. Therefore, Xia Pingan was sure that this skeleton had come in from another passage.
In other words, this desert was not a dead end. There was a way out.
"How are you so sure?" Shu Longxi asked from the side.
"I feel …" Xia Pingan stood up and looked around. He said vaguely, "This Summoner should have entered this God's Graveyard many years ago. Then, for some reason, he died here. Other than this skeleton, nothing else was left. It's a pity that the sand dunes in this desert move. If this was his original place of death, perhaps we can still search and make a fortune. An Eight Sun Realm Summoner must have something good on him!"
"Hmph, money-grubber!"
"By the way, do the bones of Summoners of other realms have different colors?" Xia Pingan asked.
"Yes!" Shu Longxi nodded. "The bones of Eight Sun Realm Summoners will be silver. The bones of Nine Sun Realm Summoners will be gold. As for Demigods, their bones will be like crystals after being washed by Divine Power. As long as you see these bones, you can basically determine their cultivation realm when they were alive. The bones of Summoners of the Eight Sun Realm and above can be used to create runes to greatly increase the power of the runes. If you don't mind, you can keep them …" Shu Longxi said to Xia Pingan.
"Forget it, I don't want to desecrate the bones of the dead!" Xia Pingan shook his head.
"I didn't know you were so principled!"
"Of course! Be careful, we don't want to die here … "
Shu Longxi nodded. She did not put away the skeleton. The two continued forward. Before long, a golden arm bone appeared from the sand dune in front of them. Shu Longxi used a spell to soak it as before. The golden arm was pushed out by the sand. It was a golden skeleton.
The two of them gasped. They looked at each other and saw the shock and fear in each other's eyes. l
This was the skeleton of a Nine Sun Realm Summoner …
If a Nine Sun Realm Summoner was going to die here, then the two of them would probably be no match.
In the next hour, more and more skeletons were found at the place where the green will-o '-the-wisps gathered. Most of them were silver in color, and there were three golden skeletons. Finally, the two of them even found a crystal-like arm bone.
"A demigod came here and lost a hand …" Shu Longxi mumbled to herself. She looked at the silent sand dunes filled with will-o '-the-wisps, and her eyes were filled with worry. She asked hesitantly, "Should we continue?"
"Even a Demigod died, so I'm not worried. If there's really danger ahead, we won't be able to hide. Think about it, if this place can attract so many experts, it means there must be something good ahead. Let's continue forward and take a risk …" Xia Pingan said very casually. He had already picked up the crystal-like arm bone and put it into his spatial warehouse without any shame.
"Didn't you say you didn't want these bones?" Shu Longxi glared at him. "Are all men so duplicitous?"
"Ahem, of course I don't want the dead. This is blasphemy against the dead. But if it's a living person, then it's a resource. It's too wasteful to throw it away. If you're jealous, I'll give you a little …" Xia Pingan said as he strode forward. That kind of indomitable spirit made Shu Longxi a little surprised.
Looking at Xia Pingan's back, Shu Longxi gritted her teeth and followed.
The two of them stopped after walking for less than ten minutes because a strange sound suddenly came from all directions in the silent desert.
The sound was very soft at first, so soft that it was almost inaudible. It was just a rustling sound, as if someone was counting money. However, after a while, the rustling sound became louder and louder, coming from all directions. The rustling sound turned into a rushing sound, as if thousands of soldiers and horses were rushing over from all directions. The entire sand dune was shaking slightly.
Xia Pingan and Shu Longxi's expressions changed. The two of them stood back to back. Judging from the movement in front of them, it was definitely not a human.
After a while, a fiery-red tail appeared behind the sand dune in front of them like a flagpole. Then, the tail revealed its full appearance — it was a huge fiery-red scorpion that was seven to eight meters tall and more than thirty meters long.
The scorpion was so huge that tanks were like toys in front of it.
The scorpion rushed toward the two of them …
No, it wasn't just one scorpion. Because behind that scorpion, huge red scorpions flipped over the sand dunes like a red tide, surging over from all directions. It was impossible to count them, they were simply densely packed in tens of thousands.
"Red scorpions, this is a Seven Sun Realm Zerg. No wonder Demigods had to run away with a broken arm …" Shu Longxi looked at the scorpions rushing over and suddenly sighed. Her voice was calm. "Forget it, this is fate. You really got us killed this time …"
Behind those fiery-red scorpions, blue scorpions appeared. Those were Eight Sun Realm Zergs. Xia Pingan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and could only smile bitterly.
In the current situation, even if 100 Seven Suns were to appear here, he would still be reduced to dregs in the face of this insectoid army that had completely overturned his understanding, let alone him.
The difference in strength between the two sides was so great that it was impossible to compare.
"Sorry, I didn't expect there to be so many high-level Zergs here!" Xia Pingan smiled bitterly at Shu Longxi. The speed of those scorpions running on the sand was much faster than theirs. Those scorpions were too fast, as if they were gliding on the sand dune. As for him, he could neither fly nor use the Earth Escape Technique here. The densely packed scorpions were swarming in from all directions. It was completely impossible for him to escape.
"This is the God Kingdom of a fallen God. It's not strange for things to appear here. You did your best, and I don't blame you. If it weren't for you, we would have been turned into mummies floating in the void by those corpse worms a hundred days ago …"
"If there's a chance in my next life, I'll repay you with my life!" As he spoke, Xia Pingan had already taken out the Seven Star Sword Whip and was ready to fight.
All the giant scorpions surrounded the two of them in the middle of a sand dune, but no giant scorpions charged over. The scene was eerily quiet.
"These giant scorpions don't seem to be in a hurry to take our lives!" Xia Pingan said to Shu Longxi with a thought.
"I think they're discussing how to make it delicious …" Shu Longxi said, but Xia Pingan saw that she had already taken out a large number of bottles and jars. She was quickly mixing the contents of those bottles and jars together as if she was refining some kind of pill.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm struggling to see if I can concoct a medicine that can drive these giant scorpions away. These giant scorpions hate certain smells, and they want to treat us as their dinner. I can make their dinner unhappy. It's best if they despise us, then we can live …"
Before Shu Longxi finished concocting the medicine, Xia Pingan saw the giant scorpions in front of him suddenly split to the sides, revealing a path. Then, a giant golden scorpion that looked like it was made of gold slowly walked over from behind the group of scorpions.
Gold? Nine-Sun realm. This was a scorpion king …
Seeing this scorpion king appear, Xia Pingan thought of the golden insect king that destroyed the Immortal City. These two were existences of the same level.
Shu Longxi sighed when she saw the insect king appear. She stopped concocting the medicine. Against an insect king of this level, any medicine would be useless.
The scorpion king's movements were neither fast nor slow. It didn't show any obvious signs of aggression. It walked all the way to Xia Pingan and Shu Longxi before stopping. Then, it laid on the ground and extended its two huge front pincers in front of the two of them as if it was placing two ladders in front of them.
Xia Pingan blinked. He felt that this scorpion king didn't have any hostility. It seemed … like it wanted him to climb onto its back …
