1295 Danger Approaching (1/2)

They rested for an hour in the afternoon.

Luo Puti gorged down the First Love Peaches until she was stuffed, drank some ginseng tea and even rested on Zhang Chui'er's massage chair for half an hour. By the time they had to pack up and continue their journey, she was practically glowing with happiness.

Chen Xiaobei had an equally fulfilling rest, and he felt very refreshed.

As it was time to leave, Chen Xiaobei used the Returning Bracelet, and brought Luo Puti back to the desert.

After going around the sand dunes, both factions gathered and were getting themselves prepared to embark on the next part of their journey.

When they saw Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti approaching, they had on an amused look on their faces, waiting for Chen Xiaobei to make a joke out of himself.

They were anticipating that if Chen Xiaobei was not going to pack up and head home, he definitely had to get down on both knees to beg Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding'ao. He had no other option.

Little did they know, they were about to get very disappointed.

Chen Xiaobei walked up to them and said, ”Let's go.”

There was no begging, no giving up.

All those who had made a bet on that felt the sting on their faces.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding'ao said nothing. They merely ordered the troops to continue forward. Deep inside, they were actually very upset. How long could Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti last?

A whole lot of problems tailed after, during their journey.

Chen Xiaobei spotted some red-tailed black desert army ants at the size of a thumb.

For these species, they travelled by the tens of thousands! And they could chew up a living being within just seconds!

Two Kunlun Faction disciples were standing at the spot when the raid of ants exploded from the ground.

Both men, caught unaware, were completely devoured within seconds, including the luggage they were carrying on their backs! Soon, they were stripped of their flesh. There was nothing left of them but clean, white bones!

Luckily, the group came prepared with flash bombs, which were dropped by the Fire Celestial True Kang elites. Subsequently, the ants were quickly wiped out.

However, the deaths of the two core disciples traumatized the rest of the group.

The once relaxed atmosphere became tense. Everyone including Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti grew hyper vigilant.

The sandstorm had definitely rained pure terror in the desert and it was only the beginning of more to come. None of them dared to take their lives for granted anymore.

Chen Xiaobei witnessed a quicksand situation not long after.

Two Xingxiu disciples who were elites at the Pinnacle Phase of True Nirvana cultivation, were consumed by the moving sand. The harder they struggled, the harder the sand tugged them to the bottom.

Within half a minute, the both of them had disappeared into the sand. Trapped under 500 tonnes of yellow sand, there was no way out. No one even dared to try and save them.

With two more members of the expedition team gone, the tension in the air grew.

Panic began to set in amongst the lower core disciples; even the higher ranking elite brats felt an unfamiliar sense of danger.

Towards the final leap of the day's journey, the road they were travelling on was shrouded in a dense shadow.

”Everyone, pull together!” Zhou Xiaokun called out at the top of his voice during his pep talk. ”We are nearly there. Just a little bit more. Let's get to that marked place and break our ancestors records! Let's rewrite our own history! Yes, there will be a lot of danger along the way. The legendary Crimson Crowned Snake may appear anytime here. This snake extremely poisonous! Once bitten, you'll have to amputate any part where the poison has travelled to. If it bites your leg, then your leg will be chopped off. No hesistations on that. Besides, even if this snake had been cut into half, its head could still attack and it will continue to threaten lives! The only way to kill them is to use your True Kang to blow their heads! If you want to survive, remember everything I've said! Let's march on forward!”

As danger was lurking everywhere, the group slowed their pace down.

Everyone was beginning to feel the heat of the scorching sun.
