1110: 1018 Great Sun Desert 1110: 1018 Great Sun Desert The Great Sun Desert is located in the southern part of the Ancient Cloud Continent, vast in size.
It is said that the desert was originally a mountain range, but was transford into its current state after a battle between Taiyi Golden Immortals.
As the setting sun descended, the afterglow of the evening light fell upon the desert, as if draping it with a golden cloak.
A streak of red escape light appeared on the distant horizon and flickered to a stop.
As the light dimd, a red flying boat glowing with a radiant sheen was revealed, with Shen Long, Chu Buyu, and Shen Chan standing aboard.
To travel from the Glazed Sea Domain to the Ancient Cloud Continent, the shortest route was through the Great Sun Desert.
If they were to take a detour, not only would it be much further, but they might also encounter evil cultivators lying in wait to ambush travelers.
“The Great Sun Desert is vast, with nurous natural restrictions.
We must tread cautiously,”
Shen Long said gravely.
After leaving Myriad Beasts Island, they headed to the Tianyue Marketplace to inquire about the conditions of the Ancient Cloud Continent with Chu Yun.
Chu Yun and Lin Lian had been in charge of gathering intelligence over the years.
Besides information on the Glazed Sea Domain, they also had so reports on the Ancient Cloud Continent.
Due to limitations in manpower and cultivation, their understanding of the Ancient Cloud Continent was limited.
The immortals of the Glazed Sea Domain who traveled to the Ancient Cloud Continent typically attempted to pass through it.
Many immortals had even stayed permanently in the Great Sun Desert.
Chu Buyu nodded, forming a spell with his fingers.
The Mysterious Fire Boat emitted a glow of red light and flew forward, its speed moderate.
Shen Chan’s eyes glead with piercing golden light as he scanned the surroundings.
He had only recently grasped the Gold Law at the entry level; comprehending special laws was not so easily achieved.
A day later, Shen Chan suddenly said, “Master, be careful.
There’s a restriction ahead.”
The void ahead showed no anomalies, but Shen Long and Chu Buyu trusted Shen Chan’s judgnt and chose to steer clear.
The red flying boat flew southwest to avoid the area.
As they progressed, they encountered nurous restrictions.
Most were easily identifiable, but so were concealed.
Shen Long’s divine sense proved ineffective in detecting them, though Shen Chan was able to see through them all.
“There are True Immortal cultivators approaching.
Be on guard,”
Shen Long said with a frown.
Chu Buyu adjusted his hand seals, causing the red flying boat to co to a halt.
A streak of yellow escape light appeared on the distant horizon, rapidly nearing their location.
Before long, the yellow light slowed to reveal a yellow flying boat shimring with light.
Standing upon it were a rotund elder garbed in yellow robes and a full-figured woman in a golden skirt.
The yellow-robed elder was at the Late Stage of the True Immortal realm, while the golden-skirted woman was at the Middle Stage of the sa realm.
“I am Huang Zhanyuan.
The Great Sun Desert is perilous.
Fellow Taoists, would you be interested in traveling together?”
The yellow-robed elder clasped his hands and spoke cordially.
“No interest,”
Shen Long imdiately rejected.
They didn’t know the man, so there was no way they would risk joining him.
“Strength cos in numbers!
Fellow Taoist, don’t be stubborn; the Great Sun Desert is fraught with danger,”
Huang Zhanyuan said, his tone carrying subtle undertones.
Chu Buyu flicked his sleeve, sending five tallic orbs flying into the air.
With the sound of chanisms clicking, the orbs transford into five humanoid puppets.
“We don’t believe that more people necessarily an more strength,”
Chu Buyu replied coldly.
“Tier-One Immortal Puppets!”
Fear flickered in the eyes of both Huang Zhanyuan and the golden-skirted woman.
“Since the fellow Taoists are unwilling, so be it.
May you fare well on your journey.”
Huang Zhanyuan’s tone grew cold as he ford a hand seal.
The yellow flying boat lit up with a glow of yellow light and departed toward the southeast.
Soon after, the yellow flying boat vanished into the horizon.
“Master, they’ve left,”
Shen Chan confird.
Shen Long retrieved a piece of yellow beast hide with so inscriptions on it.
“Let’s avoid them.
It’s best not to encounter them again,”
Shen Long said.
Chu Buyu ford a spell, and the red flying boat headed southwest, soon disappearing into the horizon.
Half a month later, the red flying boat appeared above an enormous yellow sand dune.
Ahead, the void was riddled with countless gaping fissures.
“So many space fissures?
Let’s bypass them,”
Shen Long said with a frown.
Chu Buyu nodded and ford a hand seal, steering the red flying boat in a different direction.
The red flying boat hadn’t traveled far when a deafening explosion echoed in the distance, and a massive burst of golden light shot into the sky.
Shen Long’s heart sank.
Chu Buyu quickly altered his hand seals, halting the red flying boat in its tracks.
Shen Chan’s eyes glead with brilliant golden light, probing the source of the disturbance.
In the void, a flood of yellow light suddenly converged, forming into the figure of Huang Zhanyuan.
His right leg was missing, his face bloodless, his aura weak, and his eyes filled with terror.
“Taoist Friend Liu, the plan has been exposed.
Escape now and make sure to deliver the ssage,”
Huang Zhanyuan said in a grave tone, his body glowing with yellow light as he fled into the distance.
“Master, there are three cultivators approaching swiftly,”
Shen Chan reported.
“This is bad—True Immortal Great Perfection stage.
Retreat imdiately!”
Shen Long’s expression changed drastically.
The gap in power was insurmountable; their fate rested entirely in the hands of their pursuers.
Chu Buyu urgently activated the red flying boat, which erupted with red light and surged toward the area dense with space fissures.
Soon after, a green tornado swept in from the distant horizon, halting montarily to reveal a massive green oriole.
A large man in golden robes and a full-figured woman in a purple dress stood atop the oriole.
The aura of the man in golden robes was exceptionally forceful.
“They seem to be his accomplices.
Let’s split up,”
The purple-skirted woman suggested with a frown.
“We cannot afford to let them go, even if it ans killing the wrong target.
That matter must not be revealed.
I’ll chase Huang Zhanyuan.
You deal with them—stall them for a while.
I’ll rejoin you shortly,”
The man in golden robes instructed.
With a burst of golden light, he transford into a golden escape light and streaked away in pursuit of Huang Zhanyuan.
The purple-skirted woman’s body emitted a radiant glow as she rged with the green oriole.
Her back sprouted a pair of enormous green wings.
With a gentle flap of the wings, she transford into a gust of wind and vanished.
The red flying boat sped across the desert skies.
Shen Long furrowed his brows.
“The Wind Escape Technique—she’s catching up.”
“The spatial stability here is weak.
If a battle breaks out, this area’s space may collapse,”
Chu Buyu said, his brow furrowed.
“Space fissures may hinder their movent, but not for long.
Speed up!”
Shen Long commanded.
Chu Buyu urged the red flying boat forward, increasing its speed.
After a short while, a fierce gust swept across the void ahead, and the purple-skirted woman appeared with her massive green wings spread.
“What is the aning of this?”
Shen Long asked coldly.
“No particular aning—just a few questions,”
The purple-skirted woman replied with indifference.
“What questions?”
Shen Long frowned.
“Do you know Huang Zhanyuan?”
The purple-skirted woman asked.
“This is only our second encounter.
Surely you don’t believe his words?”
Shen Long said darkly.
“I don’t, but I’ll confirm once my companion apprehends Huang Zhanyuan.
If you truly have no connection to him, we won’t involve you,”
The purple-skirted woman answered calmly.
The three True Immortal Middle-Stage cultivators didn’t seem afraid of her, so she chose not to act rashly.
Waiting for her companion was a more prudent approach.
“We don’t have ti to wait.
Move aside imdiately,”
Shen Long demanded coldly.
Should the True Immortal Great Perfection-stage pursuer catch up, there would be no room for negotiation.
“You refuse a toast only to drink the forfeit!
Courting death,”
The purple-skirted woman’s expression turned icy as she raised her right hand, palm radiating dazzling green light.
One by one, towering green tornadoes asuring ten thousand zhang erged, barreling toward Shen Long and the others.
Wind Law.
The green tornadoes swept up massive amounts of yellow sand as they tore through.
“Finish this quickly!
They would rather kill the wrong target than let us go,”
Shen Long said in a deep voice as yellow light enveloped his form, transforming him into a Yellow Giant Ape.
He wielded a golden great rod, giving a flick of his wrists, and countless golden rod shadows surged forth to et the oncoming assault.
