Chapter 1956: Terrible natural danger, hasty escape
The reason why this place is named "Zangling" is also due to an ancient legend.
According to ancient books, when the three major caves were declining and the spiritual world was in turmoil and chaos, this place was one of the ancient battlefields where all races fought.
Although after many battles, Yudingshan finally took over the Burning Heaven Domain, the powerful fighting between the top masters caused the collapse of the earth veins and the eruption of magma, which also formed a spectacular scene of thousands of miles of red land.
Even many space nodes were shattered, accidentally creating some natural dangers or small secret realms that can be used, but these are only rumors, and the specific authenticity remains to be verified. It is estimated that only Yudingshan, as the landlord, knows the hidden secrets.
In short, under the endless desert, I don’t know how many heroic souls and bones are buried, and there are many inheritances left by ancient cultivators before they passed away, but it also hides many unpredictable dangers.
This is a place where opportunities and dangers coexist.
Some people ascended to heaven in one step, while others fell quietly here. There are countless similar examples over the years, which also made the reputation of "Zangling Ancient Desert" more and more famous.
Because there are many earth veins here and the fire element is the most abundant, Yudingshan simply set up the Taoist temple in the depths of the desert and devoted his efforts to build an ancient fairy city to serve as a natural gateway to guard the four directions, which is the so-called "Fentian Holy City".
Over time, thanks to the name of the holy land of Dandao, this holy city has gradually developed into a commercial center. On the contrary, those ancient legends have been lost in the long river of history as time goes by, and have rarely been mentioned so far.
It is precisely because of knowing these secrets that Qin Tian and the others became more cautious after entering the desert. Not only did they restrain their aura, but they also tried to avoid some famous dangerous places.
But even so, it is still difficult to avoid potential risks, and it is impossible to prevent many monsters along the way, and it is inevitable to encounter crises occasionally.
................
At dusk on this day, the two were resting in a hidden canyon. They had set up formations and barriers around them to block them, but they could not hide the fierce wind, which was sobbing all the time and was extremely creepy.
Fortunately, both of them were practitioners and were accustomed to such scenes, so they were meditating to restore their true essence and were not affected by their minds.
Unexpectedly, when it was late at night and the moonlight was getting thicker, the surrounding strong winds became more and more violent, and even formed a spectacular tornado, carrying sand and dust that covered the sky and the sun, and roared towards the canyon like a dark cloud pressing down on the city.
What was frightening was that the tornado rotated very fast, and even the space was forcibly disturbed wherever it passed, and ripples appeared one after another, especially the endless sand and dust, which seemed to contain some kind of natural power, and even the consciousness could not go too far, otherwise it would be forcibly cut off immediately.
The only thing that could be heard was the ferocious roar and the dense chirping of birds, beasts and insects, which came faintly from the depths of the sand and dust. It was obvious that there were many monsters hidden inside, and they were raging along with the storm.
After noticing the movement, the two opened their eyes instantly, and both showed solemn expressions at the same time.
It turned out that according to the information obtained from the soul search, in this ancient desert of buried spirits, there would occasionally be a strange natural danger, called "polar storm". It is said that this storm was emitted from a mysterious eye of the wind somewhere. Once it appeared in the world, it would wreak havoc everywhere in the ancient desert. It was impossible to predict its route, and even the place where it appeared was quite random.
And wherever this storm passed, it would also carry a large number of ancient desert monsters, and their strengths were even more varied. There were weak beings below the fifth level, and there were also terrible beasts that reached the sixth level.
Once a cultivator is accidentally involved in it, he will be completely lost with the storm, and even be besieged by many monsters. Unless his cultivation reaches the Refining Void Stage or above, he will never have a chance to escape, and will eventually fall.
Therefore, the real threat of this natural barrier is not the fierce storm and dust, but the countless monsters of all kinds.
It is said that the monsters living in the ancient desert have long adapted to the harsh environment here, and have also undergone considerable mutations. They can shuttle freely in the storm and dust. Therefore, whenever a storm comes, a large number of monsters will take the opportunity to escape into it and hunt the monks involved.
Today, this "polar storm" has become a hunting paradise for the ancient desert monsters, and the degree of danger is gradually increasing. It is notorious in the Burning Heaven Domain. Even the Burning Heaven Holy City, which serves as a gateway, has to spend a huge amount of money to build a powerful formation specifically for resisting the invasion of the storm.
Fortunately, the time of this storm is not fixed. It may rage once every three to five years or even occasionally appear every few decades. The scale of each appearance is also different. Sometimes it sweeps thousands of miles and then stops abruptly, and sometimes it spreads thousands of miles.
In this way, this natural barrier naturally cannot threaten the dominant position of Yuding Mountain, but it has caused suffering to many passing cultivators. Once they accidentally encounter it in the wild, they have almost no choice but to run away. Even the masters of the Refining Void Stage dare not be careless.
After all, in the past history, there are also masters of the Refining Void Stage who have become food. There are many examples.
Qin Tian did not expect that he had just arrived in the "Ancient Burial Spirit Desert" not long ago, and he was fortunate enough to see such a spectacular scene. This is really "deep blessing" and "God's favor"!
After cursing inwardly, he didn't hesitate at all. He raised his hand and put away the array flags. Then he turned around and ran without saying a word. The speed of the escape light was also pushed to the limit.
Avril, who was standing beside him, also reacted quickly. She quickly sacrificed the pair of feather wings and turned into an escape light and ran away in a hurry.
And the two of them had a tacit understanding. They all used their magical powers at the same time, destroying the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, trying to slightly block the terrible tornado. However, in front of the vast power of heaven, human power undoubtedly seemed quite small.
