Chapter 1307: The Scary Sand River Shadow
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Mo put away Blue Moon and went on Zi Xu into the Sand River. The deeper he went, the more Ye Mo felt there was a whimpering sound around. It was like a despairing tourist crying in this sea of desert.
Ye Mo flew in here for half a day and completely realized why so many people were lost. If you stayed in here a little longer, the helplessness and loneliness would take over your heart. The longer time went, the longer you spent here, the deeper this feeling was felt. If you couldn’t resolve it, no matter how strong hearted you were, you would lose yourself in this Sand River.
Ye Mo was sure that those cultivators who could go in had a way to stop this, but he didn’t know the method. Ye Mo didn’t mind that w.a.n.g Xie and Yue Ming didn’t tell him about this. They probably thought he was almighty and wouldn’t lose his mind in the desert.
In fact, if Ye Mo didn’t have Bitter Bamboo it might really be hard for him to keep conscious in this place.
But now, he wasn’t scared of this at all.
With a long howl and the use of the Three Birth Chant, his mind cleared and that whimpering sound disappeared.
Ye Mo took Zi Xu in a purple beam and dashed across the Sand River.
He had the map w.a.n.g Xie gave him. It didn’t cover the entire place but it could point a direction for him.
The whimpering sands calmed down and it was though Ye Mo was flying over an ordinary boundless desert.
He really enjoyed the feeling of flying above the sand. It had this wild but ecstatic feeling. He wasn’t a poet but even he wanted to compose a poem now.
“Attack!”
A painful howl sounded and Ye Mo suddenly stopped Zi Xu. A white-robed cultivator appeared in his spirit sense. His clothes were very dirty now and he waved a flying sword, charging as though there were countless demons ahead of him, but in fact there was just endless sand.
The rolling sand turned into a long ravine under that slashed but moments later it recovered.
“I’m going to kill you, I’m going to kill you….” The man roared nonstop and his flying sword shot out beams of cultivation essence sword rays, but there was nothing around him.
Just when Ye Mo wanted to give him a clear mind spell, he saw the man suddenly fall down.
Ye Mo landed not far from this man, he scanned over his spirit sense and found this man was dead. He was a truth realisation state level four cultivator, yet he lost his mind in here and fought a delusional battle until he dried up his cultivation essence. This was a pity.
It was unknown how long he had been fighting for and how many times he used his magic artifact to attack.
The Sand River was still the same and soon, the man was buried under the sand. Only then did his flying sword fall down, piercing into the sand like a tombstone. But it also disappeared soon under this ravaging sand.
Ye Mo stood there and fell silent for a long time and didn’t move. He didn’t take any of the man’s belongings nor his storage ring. He just saw the words ‘s.h.i.+ Zhongque’ on the hilt of the sword.
A truth realisation state level four cultivator died strangely like this, perhaps he was very famous and dominated a region when he was alive. Perhaps there were people waiting for him to go back, but today he died in this endless desert. If Ye Mo didn’t see it, perhaps no one would know of his death.
Just when Ye Mo was about to leave, he suddenly had a bad feeling. It was as though there was something staring at him. If he moved, that thing would charge up.
Ye Mo’s skin crawled, he trusted his senses too much. Even if his spirit sense couldn’t see it, he believed his sixth sense. Without hesitation, he waved blue flames over.
Heaven Flame Nine Suns was only at level one, he didn’t even completely master level one, but Ye Mo had a feeling that only Heaven Flame Nine Suns would be able to save him in this situation.
The instant the blue flame flashed over, a faint red sun rose up as though it was dawn above Ye Mo’s head.
It emitted countless pale red beams as though a star exploding.
It was under this sun that he saw a faint shadow near him. He sweated cold immediately, he was disaster transformation state tertiary stage and yet he couldn’t see this figure with his spirit sense.
The faint shadow neared Ye Mo and even reached out its faceless head. But when Ye Mo used Heaven Flame Nine Suns, the shadow showed a terrified face.
Ye Mo felt very strange. He clearly didn’t see any face on this figure but under the Heaven Flame Nine Suns it showed a terrified face.
In that instant, Heaven Flame Nine Suns exploded red rays that seemed to be flaming needles. They all shot into the shadow.
After a sharp shriek, that shadow melted like the snow under the Heaven Flame Nine Suns.
Ye Mo felt easier and the tense feeling was gone.
Ye Mo put away the Mist Lotus Heart Fire and had a bad feeling. This Sand River was more scary than he had thought.
The shadow wasn’t a ghost cultivator nor a spirit cultivator. It was something he had never heard of.
Was it this shadow that the truth realisation state was trying to kill?
Ye Mo took out the compa.s.s and map and checked before scanned with spirit sense. He was going to keep moving but his spirit sense scanned another cultivator. Like the cultivator before, he was waving his magic artifact frantically.
Without hesitation, Ye Mo flew over and used Heaven Flame Nine Suns.
The red sun rose up and loomed over this terrified cultivator.
Under the sun, a figure was latched onto this cultivator, its head stuck closely to this cultivator’s neck as though it was sucking blood.
The shadow immediately shrieked and instantly faded into a mist under the Heaven Flame Nine Suns.
This was another truth realisation state, a beast cultivator truth realisation state level five.
After the shadow was gone, the beast cultivator immediately stopped and before he could even thank Ye Mo, he sat down to eat a pill and recover.
15 minutes later, the beast cultivator got up and saluted with his fists with a sliver of shock. “Thank you friend for saving me, I’m G.o.d Beast Mountain Range’s Cha Qizhao.”
Ye Mo asked, “Do you know s.h.i.+ Zhongque? Or do you know big G.o.d Lord or second G.o.d Lord and West Cultivator City’s city lord Xie Zhengs.h.i.+?”
Cha Qizhao was shook. “You’re the cultivator coming here for the seal? You must not go, that seal is a demon, you must not go….”
“There’s no one there now, people are dead, injured, and running for their lives. That is too scary, too scary, it’s over, West Extreme State is done for.”
Ye Mo frowned, a truth realisation state cultivator was scared to this degree, this was too absurd. He waved his hand and gave him a clear mind spell before asking, “Brother Cha, what is going on? Can you be more specific?”
The beast cultivator shook and completely woke up. He looked at Ye Mo in shock. “What were the things chasing us? How come I couldn’t see them, how come you could? You killed them?”
