This is a vast desert. The sand and rocks in the desert showed a strange blood-red color, and when the wind blew, the sky seemed to be shrouded in a sea of blood.
Suddenly, two escaping lights appeared at the end of the sky. After a while, it landed on a sand dune. As soon as the light faded away, Lu Yu in a green shirt and Ping Chong in a brocade robe appeared.
"Brother Lu, this is the Blood Feather Desert. If you pass through this desert, you will be able to reach Wucheng." Ping Chong said with a hearty smile.
"Could it be the desert where you said you can't fly in the air? But I don't feel that there is any air ban here." Lu Yu asked suspiciously.
Ping Chong laughed, pointed to a few small black dots high in the sky and said, "Brother Lu, what do you think are those?"
Lu Yu followed the direction pointed by Ping Chong, looked intently, and the thing that was originally like a small black spot was instantly magnified and came into view.
It turned out that the black spots on the sky were two-headed strange birds, all black, with blood-red eyes, and looked extremely ferocious. The realm of each strange bird has the appearance of the second-order peak, which is equivalent to the realm of the late sword spirit. Coupled with the unique advantages of birds fighting in the air, if you fight them in the air, even the monks in the late stage of Sword Spirit will not be their opponents.
"What kind of bird is this, why have I never seen it before?" Lu Yu gasped and said.
"This bird is called the Blood Feather Eagle. It is a unique monster in our area. It is normal for Brother Lu to have never seen it. The Blood Feather Eagle is cruel by nature, bloodthirsty, and very concerned about airspace awareness. If we If you fly in the sky, you will be besieged by these monsters." Ping Chong introduced in detail.
"Then isn't it dangerous for us to walk in this desert?" Lu Yu asked suspiciously.
Ping Chong shook his head and explained: "The blood feather eagle can only see at night by nature, and it is blind during the day. As long as it doesn't violate their airspace, there is no big problem. At night, we just need to set up a magic circle to hide the breath, hide in the Inside. Even with the wisdom of these blood feather eagles, they can't find us."
"Rushing during the day and resting at night, will this delay the time?" Lu Yu asked hesitantly.
Ping Chong shook his head and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry, although the Blood Feather Desert is dangerous, its area is not large. At our walking speed, we should be able to get out of this desert in about three days and reach the vicinity of Wucheng."
Lu Yu bowed his head and thought for a moment, and felt that this method was feasible, and then the two discussed the details. After identifying the direction, he braved the wind and sand and walked towards the depths of the desert.
In this way, the two traveled during the day and hid in the magic circle to meditate at night. Three days passed quickly. At this time, the two were less than a hundred miles away from the edge of the desert. It's just that it was getting dark, and the two of them didn't dare to rush on their way. We can only set up the formation on the spot, stay for another night, and set off again at dawn tomorrow.
In a large circle, Lu Yu and Ping Chong sat at both ends of the circle.
Since the two have no close friendship, they are wary of each other. Therefore, they are all in the hidden circle, and each has set up a small magic circle to isolate the consciousness and voice, so as not to be detected by the other party.
Ping Chong sat in his isolation circle with a calm expression on his face.
Suddenly, he sensed and opened his eyes. Void grabbed it, and a small silver sword appeared in his hand. Immediately, with a strong hand, the little sword shattered.
A familiar man's voice came from inside: "Brother, the array has been set up. As long as you trick him into the array, I guarantee that he will come and go."
After hearing this, Ping Chong looked up at the moon in the sky, with a cruel smile on his face.
At this time, Lu Yu was meditating on the other side of the magic circle and adjusting his breath, carefully analyzing what happened these days in his mind.
These days, Ping Chong's performance was quite satisfactory, and nothing unusual happened. Lu Yu even felt that he was suspicious. The fundamental purpose of this Ping Chong was to kill the Lord of Wu City, not to plot against him.
Suddenly, Lu Yu frowned slightly, and suddenly opened his eyes.
"There are warning signs again!" Lu Yu murmured in a low voice.
Afterwards, Lu Yu looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and whispered to himself: "It seems that Ping Chong has already acted, and I have to make some preparations in advance."
Since both of them are in their own isolation circle, they don't have to worry about their words being heard by the other party, and their petty actions being discovered by the other party.
Tonight, the two of them prepared their own plans.
Early the next morning, the sun had just risen above the horizon, and the morning sun shone on the two of them.
Lu Yu and Ping Chong opened their eyes at the same time, removed the isolation circle, stood up, and stretched their muscles.
"Brother Lu, we should be able to leave the Blood Feather Desert by this afternoon." Ping Chong said with a smile.
Lu Yu also said with a relaxed face: "Yes, I can finally get rid of the group of blood feather carvings on my head. Thinking about it makes me feel comfortable."
"Since Brother Lu doesn't want to stay here for a long time, let's hurry up." Ping Chong suggested.
Lu Yu naturally had no objection. As soon as the two closed the magic circle, they continued to walk quickly in the direction of Wucheng.
At noon, the two finally left the Blood Feather Desert and came to the desert with normal colors.
"Finally leave the Blood Rain Desert." Lu Yu said with emotion as he looked at the golden desert in front of him.
Just as Ping Chong wanted to agree, he suddenly closed his mouth and stared in a certain direction.
"Brother Ping, what happened?" Lu Yu asked after seeing Ping Chong's strange expression.
"You'll know if you look in that direction." Ping Chong pointed in a certain direction and said with a serious face.
Hearing this, Lu Yu quickly released his consciousness, and sure enough, he found a middle-stage sword spirit monk flying towards them three hundred miles away.
"In the mid-stage of Sword Spirit, could it be the Lord of Wu City?" Lu Yu asked solemnly.
Ping Chong sneered and said: "Except for this person, who else around here has the mid-stage sword spirit cultivation base."
"Brother Ping, what do you plan to do?" Lu Yu asked calmly. Fang Buddha didn't pay attention to the city lord of Wucheng at all.
"Before this person finds us, we can hide our breath first and kill this guy right here." Ping Chong said with a sinister smile.
As soon as the words fell, Ping Chong grabbed the void, and a black cloak emerged. It became bigger in an instant, and it was about to cover the two of them.
"What is the meaning of this, Fellow Daoist?" Lu Yu looked at Pingchong warily, with his right hand on the storage bag, ready to strike at any time.
Ping Chong quickly waved his hand and said: "Brother Lu, don't misunderstand, this is just the next hidden magic weapon, without any attack power. If you don't believe me, you can check it out as you like."
Hearing what Ping Chong said, Lu Yu carefully released a ray of consciousness, and began to check the cloak inch by inch.
After a while, Lu Yu calmed down, and said: "Presumably, fellow Taoists used this to hide their body in Yunzhai that day. However, as long as this magic weapon meets someone with higher spiritual consciousness than the user, it cannot be used Hidden away."
After hearing this, Ping Chong laughed and said: "As expected of a master craftsman, I can see through this shadow cloak with just a few glances."
"This is because Daoist Ping is willing to let go of his heart and let my spiritual sense investigate. Otherwise, no matter how good I am, I won't be able to see through it. But, are you sure that the Wucheng City Lord's spiritual sense is not stronger than yours?" Lu Yu Still a little worried.
Ping Chong patted his chest and said affirmatively: "Brother Lu, don't worry, I have been fighting this guy for more than a hundred years. I know exactly what he is capable of."
After hearing Ping Chong's words, Lu Yu was relieved.
After a while, a short man in a fine attire appeared in the sky, with a violent look on his face, one could tell he was a brutal man at a glance.
When the short man flew over an inconspicuous hill, there was a sudden explosion, and two figures flew out from it.
The short man stepped back a few feet and stared at the two of them intently. When his eyes turned to Ping Chong, a look of surprise flashed on his face, and he said coldly: "Ping Chong, you still dare to come to Lao Tzu's realm, don't you want to live?"
After hearing this, Ping Chong said jokingly, "Lei Zhuang, stop being brave. Do you think you can leave here alive today?"
With a gloomy expression on his face, Lei Zhuang said to Lu Yu who was beside Ping Chong: "Fellow Daoist, if you are willing to leave here today. If this guy can give you, I can give you twice."
Lu Yu's eyes were expressionless, and he said in a cold voice: "Fellow Daoist, I appreciate your kindness. However, I don't have the habit of going back on my promise. You should leave your life here, fellow Daoist."
When Lei Zhuang heard this, his face was full of anger, and he roared angrily: "Very well, even if Lei dies today, he has to drag another one as a backup."
As soon as the words fell, there was lightning flashing on Lei Zhuang's body, and there was a faint sound of thunder. A huge thunder ball emerged, covering Lei Zhuang's figure, as if it was urging some powerful magic.
"Fellow daoist, be careful, this guy's thunder attribute skills are very powerful." Ping Chong reminded.
Lu Yu nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the phantom of Haotianjia appeared on his body, protecting Lu Yu in it.
"Holy Rank Spirit Treasure." Ping Chong said in a low voice.
Just when the two of them resisted Lei Zhuang's powerful attack. Suddenly, the thunder disappeared, and all the visions disappeared.
The two of them hurriedly looked at the place where Lei Zhuang was standing just now, it was already empty.
"Oops, we were fooled. Hurry up!" Ping Chong suddenly realized.
"This guy's escape speed is not too fast, he should be able to catch up." Lu Yu released his consciousness and found Lei Zhuang who was fleeing several miles away.
Before the words fell, the two turned into a ray of light and chased in the direction where Lei Zhuang was escaping.
After a meal, the two of them could already see Lei Zhuang fleeing ahead from a distance. At this time, Lei Zhuang had disheveled hair, looking like he was running away.
Just when the two thought they could catch up immediately. Suddenly, the surrounding scenery felt blurred for a while.
After a while, the two were in a boundless prairie.
"A magic circle! We fell into this guy's trap." Seeing this, Ping Chong roared angrily.
Lu Yu had a calm expression on his face, looking at the surrounding environment with cold eyes, as if everything was under control...
