Demon's Diary

Chapter 1193 Sword Qi Nine Heavens Chapter 1125 Desert Stealth
half a month later.

After several days of rush work, dozens of large and small fortress buildings were urgently built on the edge of the mountains around Mount Chedi, facing the direction of the Great Southern Desert. Relying on the favorable terrain, they formed an impregnable defensive position.

On the fortress, teams of monks shuttled and patrolled in an orderly manner, and at intervals on the wall of the fortress, a giant bow and crossbow, a large magic weapon, etc. could be seen, emitting bursts of intense light.

From time to time, streamers of light floated in the sky. Upon closer inspection, it was the monks of various forces in different costumes, and there were even some teams of dozens of people, reinforcing each fortress. Everything seemed to be in order.

All of this is due to the establishment of the Southern Wilderness Alliance, which established a relatively complete system in a short period of time, completely rectifying the originally chaotic situation.

In addition, the entire towering and majestic Chedi Mountain, starting from the mountainside, is shrouded in a layer of gray and misty light curtain. It was hazy, and I couldn't see everything in the mountain clearly.

On a fortress built near a mountain, a black light flew from a distance, circled in mid-air, and landed on a section of the city wall.

The black light dissipated, revealing Liu Ming's figure.

On the city wall, the monks of Tianxiang Valley roared, and more than a dozen monks were already standing here.

"Senior Lion Roar, and fellow Taoists, I'm sorry, I've been delaying time because of sacrificing a magic weapon, and kept you waiting here for a long time." Liu Ming walked over quickly and said apologetically.

"I've just arrived, fellow Daoist Liu, don't worry about it." Lion Roar waved his hand and said indifferently.

Beside Shi Hou, there were three or four crystal transformation disciples dressed in the costumes of Sky Demon Valley. After seeing Liu Ming, they bowed to him one after another.

Except for the people from Sky Demon Valley, the remaining people have different costumes, and they should be monks from small and medium forces in various parts of the Southern Wilderness.

One of them has a strong figure and long fiery red hair. He is obviously a late-stage true alchemy expert.

Liu Ming was quite impressed with this person, it was the Brown Dragon Mountain Body Cultivator he had met the day he came to Chedi Mountain.

The whole team, including Liu Ming, consisted of four true alchemy monks, and the rest were disciples of the crystal transformation stage.

"Since Fellow Daoist Liu has also arrived, let's set off after a little preparation. The other teams have already gone ahead." Lion Roar said after looking around.

The people present naturally had no objection when they heard the words.

The next moment, over the increasingly dark sky of Chedi Mountain, the group of people turned into streamers of light, flying towards the direction of the Southern Wilderness Desert like a colorful cloud belt, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

……

Ten days later, Liu Ming and his party finally arrived at the edge of the Southern Wilderness Desert after a long journey.

Liu Ming raised his head and saw that there was an endless desert in front of him. The sand grains were yellow and black in color. From time to time, the pillars soared into the sky, spinning and wandering wildly.

The black dust covering the sky almost covered half of the sky, giving people a sense of darkness.

Only then did Liu Ming understand what the so-called "Black Sand Day" meant.

"The black sandstorm has begun to wreak havoc, and it happens that we can use this to hide our tracks. According to the information explored by the alliance, the harsh wind and sand will also affect the locust's perception. But don't be careless, and try to restrain your breath along the way. It's an infiltration mission. Alright, let's go." Lion Roar turned his head and said something to the others, a yellow glow lit up on his body, and he flew into the black sandstorm.

Everyone looked at each other, and cast secret techniques one after another, suppressing the mana fluctuations on their bodies, releasing only a layer of protective light against the wind and sand, and then followed the lion's roar to move forward.

Along the way, under the powerful mental power of the lion's roar, everyone bypassed one place after another where the Chi clan gathered.

However, as the location of entering the desert deepened, the surrounding scenes also changed.

Because of the sandstorm, the surrounding light was already very dim, and the sun above the head could hardly be seen. The black sand and gravel frequently hit the rays of light on the body guards of the monks, making a sound like rain hitting plantains.

Liu Ming's body at this moment was suddenly surrounded by a faint layer of black air, easily isolating those black sand winds.

But the other monks did not dare to use the magic weapon with strong mana fluctuations because of what the lion roar said.

Facing such a ferocious black sandstorm, a few true alchemy monks were fine, but those monks in the crystallization stage, after a long time, obviously struggled.

Lion Roar, who was walking in the front, stopped suddenly, looked back at the crowd behind him, waved his long sleeves without saying a word, and raised a khaki-colored streamer.

This small streamer is bright and shiny, with a dark yellow halo covering its surface. Following the lion's roar, a piece of khaki-yellow mist rose from the streamer, and it exploded with a whimper, covering the whole group of monks stand up.

As soon as the raging wind and sand touched the earth-yellow mist, it disappeared without a trace like a mud cow entering the sea.

Everyone suddenly felt their bodies lighten, and those disciples in the crystal transformation stage all showed a sigh of relief.

There was also a trace of surprise on Liu Ming's face. The yellow mist looked very inconspicuous, but it was able to insulate the wind and sand in such an understatement, and the mana fluctuations emitted were so slight that it was mixed in the wind and sand, making it extremely difficult to detect.

"This is the Yinsha Banner. Although it is not considered a treasure, it is quite effective in covering up mana fluctuations." Lion Roar glanced at the surrounding people and said.

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words, and thanked the lion roar one after another.

"Replenish your energy, and there will be a bitter battle waiting for us." The lion roared, and with a move, the Yinsha Fan rolled up the bodies of the people and flew away into the sandstorm.

After a while, it disappeared into the vast black sandstorm.

……

The Southern Wilderness Desert is extremely vast, covering an area of ​​[-] miles. Liu Ming and the others flew for half a day before they gradually approached the group's destination this time.

In the extremely blurred line of sight, the black sand and rocks rush towards him like a tide, even with the protection of the yellow mist, there will be ripples from time to time.

At this moment, they have become more cautious, constantly adjusting the route of travel, in order to avoid some borer gathering places that they frequently encounter.

Fortunately, the black sand here is already very dense, and the speed is extremely fast, which well covers the whereabouts of a group of people.

The concealment effect of the hidden sand banner is very remarkable. Even the borers who are very close can't find the traces of Liu Ming and others in such a big black sand storm.

Among them, there was even one time when dozens of giant insects of the Chizu tribe flew by less than a hundred feet away from Liu Ming and his party, but they failed to discover the existence of Liu Ming and others.

In the yellow mist, everyone looked solemn, always alert to the surrounding situation.

When the group flew over a huge sand dune more than ten feet high, Liu Ming's expression suddenly changed.

In front of the sand dunes, a huge fuzzy black shadow quickly moved towards this side at an extremely fast speed.

There was a flash of black light in Liu Ming's eyes, his eyes instantly penetrated the sandstorm, and he saw the black shadow clearly.

It was actually a giant black bug with a height of seven or eight feet. Compared with the black borer with a human face that he had killed before, this one seemed to be a little smaller in size, but the breath seemed to be a borer from the real alchemy realm.

However, this insect is extremely weird, with two extremely powerful hind limbs, and a yellow and black carapace exuding some green juice from time to time, when the surrounding black sand hits it, misty blue smoke suddenly emerges. , there are three extremely protruding eyes on the head, as if they are about to fall out of the body, it looks very scary.

This giant worm with a head like a praying mantis, kicked its hind legs, and moved forward a distance of several tens of feet in an instant, as if it was flying.Every time he jumped, he left two giant pits on the sand, which were not affected at all by the violent wind and sand around him.

The giant locust appeared so suddenly that no one had time to avoid it. The insect had already appeared less than [-] feet in front of Liu Ming and his party. A cold light flashed in its three eyes, and it let out a neighing sound. Stepping on the ground, his figure turned into a black light and rushed towards him.

Lion Roar frowned, and with a wave of his hand, the small khaki-colored banner above his head shone brightly, and the area covered by the yellow cloud suddenly expanded ten times, enveloping the strange locust inside.

"Kill this insect quickly, and don't attract the attention of other borers." Lion Roar ordered, but he didn't make a move.

Every move of a cultivator in the Celestial Realm will bring about violent fluctuations in the vitality of the world. Once he makes a move, it will be more likely to attract the attention of other insects.

When the other monks heard the words, they all agreed to surround him.

The locust in the shape of a mantis didn't care about the surrounding Huang Yun, its body turned into a black phantom, and it flew towards the nearest Liu Ming, and its two machete-like forelimbs slashed towards Liu Ming's body.

Liu Ming's eyes flickered, he snorted coldly, his figure became blurred, and in a blink of an eye he was behind the giant praying mantis, and a black fist shadow slammed towards the head of the giant mantis.

Before the fist touched the giant worm, a suffocating heavy fist rolled over in an instant.

At this moment, the giant worm's eyes showed a hint of shock, but its reaction was quite fast, its body shrank suddenly, and it wanted to avoid the blow.

As a result, the next moment, the giant praying mantis found that as it moved its body, the black fist shadow moved a little bit like a shadow, and landed on its head just right.

The giant worm was startled, and before Fist Shadow touched its head, a layer of black light appeared on its body instantly, forming a faint shield of black air.

There was a muffled "boom"!
The black air shield shattered at the sound, and the giant praying mantis staggered under the bombardment of a huge force, and retreated seven or eight steps backwards, and countless blood shot out from the surface of the entire head instantly.

(Profusely, Chapter 2 is finally done. Recently, Wangyu’s mental state is not very good, and he is still adjusting.)
