As for the loot, it was temporarily kept by Yu Zimo and would be distributed when they returned.
"These bandits are quite fast. Judging from their appearance, they don't all have Sand Settling Pearls, "Lu Xiaotian said in bewilderment.
"Brother Lu, you might not know this, but these bandits have been active in this area for many years. Every once in a while, they will consume a spiritual item called Sea Buckthorn Grass, which can also prevent them from being affected by the sand. However, this kind of Sea Buckthorn Grass can only be found in the depths of the sand region and is rarely seen in the periphery. This is also the reason why there are so many bandits here. It is very difficult for a newcomer to pose a fatal threat to the bandits who have the geographical advantage. Even if a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure enters this area, their divine senses will be greatly affected, "Yu Zimo explained patiently.
"Something's not right!" Lu Xiaotian's expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong?" Yu Zimo asked in confusion.
"There's something strange about the bandits. Retreat!" Lu Xiaotian said in a low voice.
"Really? Why didn't we notice it?" Guo Jingyu's face was clearly filled with disbelief. However, just as he finished speaking, two small groups that were relatively far away from the group started to retreat in horror.
Rustling sounds could be heard from the ground one after another.
"We've been tricked. Retreat!" A middle-aged man at the front covered his injured left arm and screamed in fear as he retreated.
"Oh no, there's a group of Poisonous Sand Ants behind us blocking our retreat," another scream sounded from behind.
"I didn't expect that the bandits here would grow to such an extent after only a few decades of not clearing out Goose Sand Ridge." A dignified voice sounded and a huge shadow descended from the sky. The huge shadow stretched out its sleeve and pointed. The sand that was originally turbulent and obstructing vision was instantly blown away, revealing the situation behind them. A group of fifty to sixty ferocious bandits were each riding on a huge ant with yellow and black stripes. He glared fiercely at the intruders. Further away, a large group of Poisonous Sand Ants was swarming toward them.
If it wasn't for the majestic voice that gave the intruders confidence, they would have already fled in all directions.
"Wu Qinghe, I knew that after intercepting that Ice Eagle Soul Lamp, Yuan Spirit City would definitely send you, someone who is relatively familiar with the situation in Goose Mountain Ridge, to clean up the place. It's time for us to settle the grudges of hundreds of years." A person wearing a brown crystal armor with a dark complexion was seen riding on a huge Cockscomb Flying Python as he slowly walked over in the rolling sandstorm.
Everyone was shocked when they heard that. Initially, they thought that with a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure like Wu Qinghe presiding over Goose Sand Ridge, even if they could not wipe out all the bandits, it would at least be a smooth battle. Who would have thought that a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure would appear in Goose Sand Ridge? It seemed that there was still an old grudge between him and Wu Qinghe that could not be resolved.
"Yue Donglai, I didn't expect you to have reached the Form Synthesis Stage. If I had known this, I wouldn't have killed you with a single palm strike. To nurture a tiger is to invite calamity. You're just a newcomer. I'd like to see what tricks you have up your sleeves. "Wu Qinghe's face was filled with surprise. He stretched out his hand and slapped the void. Instantly, a thunderclap rumbled in the air. The wind and clouds surged. Thunderclouds gathered above his head and howled.
Be it Lu Xiaotian's group or the bandits, everyone's expressions changed. A Conjoint Body Mighty Figure's attack was so powerful.
"Kill!" The dark-faced man riding on the Cockscomb Flying Python, Yue Donglai, growled and turned into a gust of wind that howled towards the thunderclouds in the sky.
Lu Xiaotian could vaguely see a spear surrounded by lightning clashing with two green sabers wrapped in whirlwinds in the sky. As the sabers danced, the wind swept through the clouds. Whoosh! Whoosh! As the thunder spear stabbed, thick lightning bolts danced in the air like snakes. Even with Lu Xiaotian's eyesight, he could not see clearly. However, at that moment, it seemed as though the power of wind and thunder in the entire world was being mobilized by Wu Qinghe and Yue Donglai.
"Kill!" At that moment, a white-haired old man riding an extraordinarily large sand ant roared with a murderous aura. The poisonous sand ant he was riding on let out a shrill cry. Hundreds of poisonous sand ants rushed towards the many teams that were chasing after them from several directions.
Among the hundreds of poisonous sand ants, only about forty to fifty of them had reached the Soul Formation Realm. Together with the bandits, their strength was about the same as the many teams that were rushing in. However, even further away, there were still densely packed Poisonous Sand Demonic Ants swarming over.
"Retreat slowly. Don't panic!" Seeing so many poisonous sand ants and many Soul Formation Realm bandits among them, Yu Zimo's face turned pale. At the very least, the army of cultivators from Yuan Ling City behind them could not catch up immediately. In other words, they had to withstand the first few waves of attacks by themselves.
"Reinforcements are coming. Don't panic. Go!" Most of the teams that were rushing in were elites in the Soul Formation Realm. Faced with such a situation, they naturally knew what to do. If they retreated recklessly and disrupted the formation of the army behind them, they would not be able to get away with it even if they retreated.
"Boom!" Zhou Chan was using a Crimson Flame Wolf Tooth Club. When the magic treasure flew out, it shot out flames in all directions, as if it was going to ignite the air. A small number of twelfth rank poisonous sand ants were roasted by the flames before they could even get close.
However, the poisonous sand ants that had reached the Soul Formation Realm were not affected by the flames at all. They screamed and charged forward in an incomparably barbaric manner. The poisonous sand ants' slender legs were like sharp blades. When they swung them, they formed afterimages in the air. They collided with the Crimson Flame Wolf Tooth Club a few times, creating clanging sounds. The Flowing Fire flew all over the place.
After blocking a Mid Divine Transformation Poisonous Sand Ant, Zhou Yu's expression did not relax as he let out a strange cry. "This Divine Transformation Stage Poisonous Sand Ant is quite strong. My spirit flame is completely useless against it."
"The poisonous sand ants are earth-type monsters. Their defense is indeed very strong. The hardness of their shells is not inferior to our magic treasures." At this moment, the black-veiled woman, Cui Liu, was holding a blue bottle in her hand. The bottle released a large amount of cold air. Several branches that looked like ice crystals shot out at an extremely fast speed. Before the dozen or so Nascent Soul Realm poisonous sand ants could react, they were whipped into two by the sharp ice crystal branches.
However, the shells of the Soul Formation Realm poisonous sand ants were extremely hard. The black-veiled woman's methods were also very sharp. At the same time, she was dealing with four poisonous sand ants that had reached the Soul Formation Realm. The flying ice crystal branches caused the poisonous sand ants to scream incessantly. A few pieces of their hard shells caved in. For a moment, they had the upper hand. However, Cui Liu's expression was not optimistic.
"Remember not to let the poisonous sand ants bite your magic treasure. Their poison is very strong. Once the magic treasure is contaminated, removing the poison will consume a lot of divine sense. "Yu Zimo stood beside Guo Jingyu and reminded him.
"Oh no!" Cui Liu suddenly exclaimed. At the same time that she blocked the four poisonous sand ants of the Soul Formation Realm, a poisonous sand ant of the Soul Formation Realm suddenly broke out of the sand and bit one of the ice crystal branches.
