1275: C1275 Danger in the Desert

C1275 Danger in the Desert

"How is this possible?" Yang Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank. It was not because there was something strange about the blood or footprints. On the contrary, it was because the footprints were just ordinary footprints. That was why he was a little surprised.

In order to find the Blood Burial Secret Realm, although he had the key with him, and whether the Blood Burial Secret Realm could be seen in the surroundings, Yang Xuan still let go of his Divine Sense and searched everywhere in order to not miss any clues.

The blood was still somewhat moist, and the footprints were still very clear.

In this hot desert, due to the climate, even if a basin of water were to be poured on the ground, it would only take a few minutes for it to dry up. Perhaps the time needed to dry up the blood might be a little longer. But it would only take about ten minutes.

But ten minutes ago, Yang Xuan and Yun Batian were at most two miles away from here. However, they did not discover anything unusual about this place. And with Yang Xuan's Divine Sense, he could clearly sense even the slightest fluctuation of Spiritual Force within a radius of ten miles.

This was an extremely strange thing. Ten minutes ago... If the person was a cultivator, it was impossible that Yang Xuan's psychic force wouldn't be able to detect it. In other words, there are only two possible aids to this blood.

Either the owner of this blood didn't have any Spiritual Force, he was just an ordinary person. Moreover, the person who attacked him was either an ordinary person, or he didn't use any Spiritual Force.

However, this place was located in the depths of a vast expanse of yellow sand. How could an ordinary person come here? Moreover, he was killed here, and in the end, not even his corpse was left behind? Therefore, Yang Xuan quickly dispelled this thought in his mind.

Since that was the case, there was only a second possibility left. The person who attacked the owner of this pool of blood had already reached a certain realm. Moreover, when he attacked, he had deliberately concealed the fluctuations of his Spiritual Force, preventing others from discovering what had happened here.

However, this place was filled with yellow sand. There wasn't even a living person here. Moreover, it was quite a distance away from the most chaotic place in the depths of the desert. Why would they choose to attack here? And according to the logic of normal people, who would deliberately block the fluctuations of the Spiritual Force when they attacked?

Yang Xuan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine because he thought of a possibility that even he himself did not dare to believe. The reason why that person blocked the fluctuations of the Spiritual Force was because of him. He even thought deeper into it, perhaps after he and Yun Batian entered the desert... They've been targeted.

Thinking of this, Yang Xuan immediately turned around and said to Yun Batian, "Oh no, I think we might have been targeted."

"What?" Yun Batian was stunned for a moment, and then his expression suddenly changed. Yang Xuan did not tell Yun Batian how he got this result. But after the incident in Guan City, Yun Batian had unconditional trust in Yang Xuan's words.

"What should we do now?" Yun Batian looked around and found nothing unusual, so he asked nervously.

Yang Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't know either. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. What we can do is to concentrate as much as possible and not give the enemy an opportunity."

"Jiejie, brat, I didn't expect you to be so smart." Just as the two of them were looking at each other, a gloomy and terrifying voice came from behind them. And... Along with the voice was the endless yellow sand and endless storm.

The sun was shining brightly in the desert, but the sky turned dark all of a sudden. The black wind that filled the sky swept the sand towards the two of them. Yang Xuan and Yun Batian couldn't help but reach out their hands to shield them from the sandstorm.

It was also at this moment that both of their hearts skipped a beat. Because both of them knew that they had given each other a great opportunity by doing so. As expected, just as Yun Batian raised his hand, he heard a cold snort coming from the sandstorm in front of him. And... A sharp wind.

Yun Batian hurriedly raised his other hand to block it, but after the wind hit Yun Batian's arm, Yun Batian was instantly sent flying and fell on the sand far away. He raised his arm and found that it was already pitch black. The Spiritual Force that was attached to the strong wind just now was really too powerful.

"Mr Yang, be careful, this is a very powerful attack." Before Yun Batian could see the situation clearly, he hastily shouted at Yang Xuan.

However, when he opened his eyes again and saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned.

He saw a black storm sweeping across the yellow sand, forming a tornado that connected the heaven and earth and wreaking havoc. Wherever the storm passed, the ground was instantly swept into a depression that was at least a dozen meters deep. Yang Xuan was currently standing in front of the storm, but compared to the storm that connected heaven and earth, he seemed so tiny.

A black shadow should be hiding in the storm. One could only see that he was facing Yang Xuan. Although he couldn't see the expression in front of him, he could still see the strong killing intent coming from his body towards Yang Xuan.

A black wind suddenly emerged from the tornado. After twisting and turning, it turned into a long dragon. It opened its big mouth and lunged at Yang Xuan. The sound of the storm was like thunder.

However, Yang Xuan still stood there without moving, as if he hadn't realized what was happening. Seeing this, Yun Batian immediately became anxious and shouted, "Mr Yang, be careful!"

But as soon as his voice faded, the black dragon swallowed Yang Xuan with the force of swallowing the sky.

"Hahahahaha, isn't it good for young man to cultivate properly? Why do you have to do things that shouldn't have been done by you?" The black shadow hiding in the tornado sighed with some regret and disappointment in his voice.

Then, he turned to Yun Batian and said, "You are that little kid called Yun Batian from the Cloud Heaven Sect, right? Hand over the key to the Blood Burial Secret Realm and I will spare your life."

Only now did Yun Batian see the true face of the black shadow. What kind of strange face was that? Although his face was fat and handsome, however, there was no blood color on it. It was as white as a piece of white paper. However, his lips were extremely red, as if they were stained with blood. It looked especially horrifying.

A large grey robe covered his entire body, making it impossible for him to see any skin. However, it could still be seen that his body was very thin. However, a powerful Spiritual Force was faintly emitting from his thin body.

"What did you say? I don't know." Hearing the other party mention the key to the Blood Burial Secret Realm, Yun Batian's heart trembled, but he still refused without hesitation.2

However, the man laughed coldly and said, "Hehe, I didn't expect you to be so stubborn. Then I'll have to find it myself."
