Chapter 501: Nine Lives and One Death (2)

“If you have any nonsense to say, just say it. I don’t like to waste time here with you. You also know that we only have a total of three ten liters of time.”
“I know that there is a forest of Emerald Root Trees here.”
Liu Wen had already raised his sword, and Zhao Gang finally dropped a treasure trove out of panic.
“Azure Root Tree?”
“That’s right, it’s the Azure Root Tree. The roots of this tree can absorb very dense spiritual power, and it’s very pure. If you cat it directly, it can increase the spiritual power in your body by a lot. It’s a very good ingredient for cultivation.”
“Is it really that useful?”
“It’s absolutely true. The goal of the two of us coming in this time is that pile of Azure Root Trees!”
“Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring us there.”
Two hours later, the two of them appeared at the edge of the desert again and were packing their things.
Yang Tianqi hesitated and said,” Actually, it’s enough to cripple his cultivation just now. If he doesn’t have cultivation, he won’t be able to get out at all. He can only feed these wild beasts here. There’s no need to touch him personally.””
Liu Wen said coldly,” The two of them lied to us just now. In my eyes, only those who arc already dead can’t speak. As long as I’m still breathing, I’m not safe.””
“Alright, we’ve wasted enough time here. We only have two hours left. We need to find as many Sand Vine Fruits as possible in these two hours.”
The two of them were covered in a layer of shield as they stepped into the desert.
The sand in the desert was very soft. It felt like one’s entire foot would sink in if one stepped on it.
Moreover, there were many small demon beasts hidden below. Who knew when they would suddenly be attacked.
“Those scorpions ‘outer shells arc extremely hard. Ordinary weapons are unable to break through them. I wonder if the Wood Spirit Staff that Master gave me will be useful.”
Yang Tianqi held the black short stick in his hand and probed forward a few times. Some spiritual power leaked out of his body.
From Zhao Gang’s words, they learned that the demon beasts in this place were very sensitive to sharp senses. As long as there was a little spiritual power leaking out, they would be keenly sensed and then attracted over.
As expected, Yang Tianqi had only casually leaked a little aura, but he immediately felt a wave of squirming under his feet.
After the wriggling, a pitch-black scorpion with sharp short thorns jumped out of the desert and pounced on Yang Tianqi’s exposed skin.
Although these scorpions looked heavy and clumsy, they were actually very agile.
However, Yang Tianqi was already prepared. He immediately swung the short stick in his hand up and down, knocking the scorpions away one by one.
The Wood Spirit Rod emitted a very dense and peculiar power. Under the collision of this power, these scorpions seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and the energy in their bodies was directly dissolved.
This discovery made the two of them extremely happy. They did not expect that this Wood Spirit Rod would have such a good effect on these desert scorpions. It saved them a lot of trouble.
The treasures on Master’s body were endless, and the things he prepared for them were all useful. It was really appropriate.
The two of them bent down and kept flipping the sand under their feet, knocking away the scorpions hidden in the sand below with their sticks, forcefully opening up a path.
The yellow sand danced in the air as the two of them passed by. It was as if a tornado had been stirred up. In addition, the two of them were advancing faster and faster. It was as if a huge worm had suddenly crawled out from under the sand. They kept advancing into the distance. The situation was really scary.
Even those who had entered the desert earlier were shocked by the scene in front of them.
They all thought that something had appeared. A powerful demon beast was stirring up trouble here, but they did not know that two humans were opening a path for them here.
Yang Tianqi and the other two couldn’t care less about what others thought. After realizing that this method was effective, they drove all the way forward and rushed forward, rushing towards the place marked on the map with the Sand Vine Fruit.
Originally, there were a few people who were standing there wanting to pick them. However, they suddenly saw a huge dragon charging out from afar. When they came over, they were so scared that they ran far away.
Just like that, the two of them found the first gathering place of the Sand Vine Fruit very easily. There were also a few corpses here.
Most of these corpses were only skeletons left. It was impossible to tell how they died. In any case, as long as you lay here and couldn’t move, you would eventually become the food of these desert scorpions.
The two of them continued to search in this manner. They searched for a few places and collected a lot of Sand Vine Fruits. The time was almost up. The six hours agreed upon would be up soon.
They had to arrive at a specific place within the agreed time. Coincidentally, this place was not far from their last base. This was not bad news.
After the two of them finished collecting the sand vine fruits at the last gathering place, they rushed towards the gathering place.
“We got so many sugar fruits this time, but are we going to exchange them with Huang Daxian? If there really was that legendary egg inside, would it be better for him to keep it?”
“Huang Daxian, that bastard, didn’t tell us clearly when he came. He lied to us and said that he was using it to train this thing, but it clearly has other uses. After I say it, we have to keep an eye on him.”
As the two of them walked, they planned. Suddenly, they saw a commotion in front of them. The yellow sand that filled the sky formed a huge tornado along with the strong wind. The center of the tornado was their gathering place.
This gathering place was the closest to them. Moreover, they were stuck here when the time was almost up. It was almost time. If they could not get out of here, they were afraid that they would be in big trouble.
“What happened up ahead?”
“There seems to be very powerful energy inside. Could it be that we encountered a powerful demon beast?”
The two of them braced themselves and moved forward, sneaking into the middle of the sandstorm.
In the sandstorm, two incomparably huge spiders were facing a huge yellow snake that was hundreds of feet long. The three of them were facing each other, as if they were fighting.
Beneath their bodies were many human corpses. It seemed that these three had fought here and casually killed dozens of people.
The three of them were very wary of each other. They looked left and right and could tell that the two spiders were in cahoots. However, the two of them did not dare to attack rashly, as if the snake was a great threat to them.
“What should we do? If they couldn’t get out of here, it seemed like they wouldn’t have enough time.”
“No, it’s almost time. I have to bite the bullet and rush inside. After they make their move, I’ll immediately find an opportunity to sneak in.”
As the two of them spoke, they moved slowly along the edge of the storm. They wanted to take advantage of the fact that these guys were not paying attention and slowly find the closest place. Later, they could directly enter to avoid missing the time.
However, at this moment, the huge yellow snake suddenly flicked its tongue and turned its head sharply in the direction of the two of them.
The moment the snake turned its gaze over, the two spiders immediately followed suit. The three of them had noticed Liu Wen and Yang Tianqi.
These three fellows had even faintly touched the boundary of the Grotto Heaven realm. With such powerful strength, if they were to face them, the two of them would not have much of a chance of winning..
