Shen Luo and Fu Donglai walked towards the southeast and arrived at the southwest of Nanzhanbuzhou half a month later. A desert appeared in front of them, and waves of scorching air kept blowing in their faces.
The two stood at the edge of the desert and looked ahead, and found that the desert was vast and boundless. In the distance, some rolling hills could be vaguely seen, also made of pure yellow sand. The endless yellow sand connected with the sky, and there was no way to tell where the end was.
The sky is gray and the ground is yellow. Apart from gray and yellow, no other colors can be seen here.
"Strange, if we go further from here we will reach the South China Sea. The climate should be very humid. How come such a large sea of sand suddenly appears?" Fu Donglai said curiously.
"It is indeed strange that this boundless sea of sand appears here. Many sects have sent people here to investigate, but unfortunately none of them have found out the reason." Shen Luo said this as he looked into the distance.
"Oh, Brother Shen has been here?" Fu Donglai looked at Shen Luo with some surprise.
"No, but in order to investigate the location of Tianji City, I looked up some information about the boundless sea of sand." Shen Luo retracted his gaze and said.
"You mean, Tianji City is in this desert? Why does it look so barren here?" Fu Donglai scratched the back of his head and said with some confusion.
"The information I got from Wuzhuang Temple is that Tianji City is located deep in this endless sea of sand. However, the Tianji City sect is very mysterious. Although it often has business dealings with various races in the Three Realms, its location has always been kept secret. I don't know where it is in the sea of sand, so I'm afraid I'll have to look for it." Shen Luo smiled helplessly and said.
"Hehe, after hearing what you said, I become more interested in Tianji City. Don't say any more, let's go in and look for it." Fu Donglai rubbed his hands and urged.
"We must go in, but this sea of sand is not as calm as it appears on the surface. We have to be careful after we go in." Shen Luo's tone became more serious.
"Are you saying there is danger in there? Is there some monster or a sandstorm?" Fu Donglai was not afraid at all. Instead, his eyes were shining and he seemed eager to try.
"I don't know what the specific danger is. I just heard that people who enter the boundless sea of sand often disappear inexplicably. It's better to be careful." Shen Luo smiled bitterly.
Ever since leaving Lion Camel Ridge, Fu Donglai's temperament began to change drastically for some reason. Although he remained 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, looking nonchalant.
Shen Luo sighed in his heart and said nothing more. He flew towards the depths of the desert first, followed closely by Fu Donglai.
There was a "rustling" sound from the ground not far away, and a yellow sand lizard crawled out. It glanced in the distant direction of Shen Luo and Fu Donglai, turned around and "swooshed" back into the sand.
When Shen Luo and the other person stepped into the desert, a gust of wind suddenly came, and the rolling sand and dust quickly engulfed their figures.
The sky gradually darkened and the sun set.
Not only did Shen Luo and Fu Donglai fail to find the location of Tianji City, they also didn't see a single human figure. As far as the eye could see, there was still endless yellow sand. There was not a trace of green, let alone any human habitation.
