and ran out of the yard.Qiao Lao Er blackened his face and asked the old lady:"Mother, haven't you fed her these past two days""I gave it to her, but she chose not to eat it. Can I be blamed"The old w..."I've been to this desert before. The temperature difference between day and night is huge. During the day, besides the heat, you have to be careful of snakes, scorpions, rats, and ants in the desert. At night, the desert is even more dangerous. These sands are flowing and have no fixed direction. Sometimes they will lead you to a deadly abyss, sometimes they will lead you to an oasis. It all depends on our luck."

Mo Shangchen stood at the edge of the desert, explaining to the five people. His gaze seemed to sweep over Lian Yexi and Lian Ri's faces as if he were looking through them.

This is also the reason why he insisted on having both of them join. Luck is a very elusive thing, since he didn't have any, he used other people's.

"Fellow traveler, are you saying the cave dwelling of a Nascent Soul cultivator is in the oasis"

Du Yan asked.

"Yes."

Then aren't we just relying on luck

Mu Sheng was a bit helpless. This was too vague and nebulous.

"What I'm saying is, when luck is neutral, neither good nor bad, we can still reach the oasis with our own two feet. It just takes longer, and along the way, we don't know what dangers we might encounter. That's all."

Mo Shangchen explained.

"Let's get going! Instead of relying on sheer luck, let's walk the path step by step. It's an experience, after all. Though this endless desert is dangerous, there are many good things hidden within."

As the ripples of divine consciousness spread, he addressed several people.

"Eileen is right, everyone, don't waste time, let's set off as soon as possible. After the sun sets, we can board the flying boat."

Mò shàng chén yě fù hé dào.

The boundless desert cannot be traversed by airships during the day, but at night, they can be used as sandboats. The flowing sands will carry the airship forward, saving them time and energy.

Mos Shangchen was the first to step into the desert, followed by Lian Ri. Then, several others, including Lian Ye, quickly trailed behind them. Their figures soon disappeared into the sands.

After two hours of walking, the temperature noticeably rose. Even these accomplished cultivators felt a wave of heat. Dodo had long since been sent back to her space by the ripples. Although this environment didn't affect her much, she just didn't like it.

Lin Ri took out her waterskin and sipped some spiritual spring water, acting as if she was parched. After all, she was far from her limit, but the companions around her were expressing how hot it was, so she went along with them, just pretending better than they did, after all, her cultivation base was there to speak for itself.

Suddenly, Mo Shangchen, who was leading the way ahead, stopped his steps. He looked at the sky and calculated for a while before turning to address the few people behind him:

"The sandstorm is coming soon, we must find a place to hide, or else we'll be easily scattered."

As Mo Shangchen's voice faded, Lian Ri's divine sense, radiating outwards like ripples, had already seen billowing sand and dust rolling in from thousands of miles away, forming a sandstorm wall. And within the sandstorm, there were some desert monsters as well.

"I just felt a slight chill."

Du Yan took a deep breath and said.

"I felt it too."

"What do we do now Hide"

Ye Qing immediately asked.

"I have a magic artifact that should be able to hold several of us. Let's all squeeze in and hide from the sandstorm first, then we can talk."

That evening, he immediately took out a square box from his storage ring. It was the very one he had acquired from a wandering cultivator's stall earlier.

He took the swordsmanship from the box compartment, this box can also hold living creatures, now taking it out is just right.

At dusk, Lianxi hurled the box out. Upon hitting the ground, it transformed into a carriage-sized contraption. He was the first to jump in, and the rest followed suit.

Mo Shangchen was the last one to enter, and before the lid could be closed, Du Yan exclaimed:

"Look!"

In a short time, the sandstorm had rolled in from their direction, covering the sky. Even without deliberately releasing his divine sense, he could see it.

"What's going on How can this sandstorm devour my divine sense"

Mu Sheng said in disbelief.

Just now he extended his divine sense, wanting to see what was inside the sandstorm. As a result, his divine sense was swallowed up.

"Oh no, this must be a sandstorm caused by a Sand Worm rolling over! Quickly close the box lid, don't let them see us!"

Mo Shang Chen immediately said.

That evening, Lian Xi immediately sealed the box. Inside, darkness enveloped everything until, after a moment, Lian Yi produced a large luminous pearl which illuminated the entire space.

Everyone's faces were somewhat serious, after all, the sandworms in the endless desert are quite terrifying.

This sandworm is not just a small creature the thickness of a thumb, but a gigantic soft-bodied worm at least a hundred meters long. It resembles an earthworm, blends in with the desert, and is incredibly good at hiding. Its skin is thick and tough, and swords and spells may not be able to penetrate its outer layer.

Most importantly, inside the sandworm are thousands of sharp teeth, occupying half its body. As soon as something is sucked into its mouth, it will be met with the sandworm's teeth that strangle it to death. Even if it isn't strangled, once it enters the sandworm's stomach, it will be corroded and digested by gastric acid, ultimately becoming the sandworm's nourishment.

Because of the presence of sand worms, the lowest cultivation level for cultivators entering the Endless Desert is the Golden Core Stage. Even Golden Core Stage cultivators can only wander around the outer perimeter of the Endless Desert, catching some desert-specific monsters, searching for unique ores and spiritual herbs. To go further in, they would need at least the Nascent Soul stage of cultivation.

This is also why Mo Shangchen was willing to provide a place rich in spiritual energy, allowing Lian Yi and the others to advance to the Yuan Ying stage before coming to the Endless Desert. In their situation of insufficient strength and bad luck, wanting to reach the cave dwelling of a Nascent Soul cultivator would be a fool's dream.

And the sandworms of this boundless desert generally burrow underground. They feed on a very rare gold-sand ore found beneath the sands, and cultivators are also a delicacy they covet, so they will attack cultivators as well.

This time their probing consciousness was discovered by the sandworms, that's why they are charging at them.

Indeed, after a moment, everyone heard the sound of sand scraping against a metallic shell, which sent shivers down their spines. Then, the box began to roll around. Fortunately, they were all Nascent Soul True Monarchs and didn't get knocked around by each other. They all circulated their spiritual energy to stabilize their forms.

This rolling continued for about a minute before stopping, but no one dared to relax. Even Xi Ye kept frowning, showing no intention of opening the lid.

"Hey, friend, what's the situation outside right now"

"I don't know yet, but I feel like the danger isn't over. We'd better not go out right now."

That night, as he spoke honestly, after entering the endless desert, he had a feeling that there was a unique opportunity here for him. But he felt that he couldn't enter the depths of the endless desert alone, so he needed companions, and right now he had to protect everyone around him.

"Well then, let's just wait patiently."

Mòshàng chén immediately said, "This is the reason why he wanted to bring someone with great air luck along."

Ripple also felt that it was not appropriate to go out now. Since the sandworm could become the overlord of the endless desert, it would certainly not be stupid. Since it had swallowed Mu Sheng's divine consciousness before, it definitely knew that his territory had been entered by human cultivators, and it was estimated that it would not let go of this piece of meat within reach.

Thus, he waited until the sun set and the desert temperature dropped sharply. It wasn't until nightfall that he finally uncorked the box.flashed with a spark when he saw the ripples, and he smiled as he took the initiative to greet them.When Lian Yi saw Wu Tianxing, she politely greeted him. It wasn't that she was putting on airs; they...
