Chapter 162 The Old Man in the Desert
He swung his scorpion pincers at Luo Xing.
Luo Xing hadn't expected that this monster was a speed-type attacker. Its few simple attacks nearly struck Luo Xing's vitals; thankfully, he dodged them. It was fast enough, otherwise, he would have been hit by this thing.
This thing isn't very powerful, but that poisonous woman was quite persistent, and I almost got hit by the poisonous hook several times.
Luo Xing handled the situation quite well, but Lili and Liu Yan were having some difficulty, especially Liu Yan.
Liu Yan was the weakest of the three, and she was injured by the scorpion beast's pincers several times.
"what!"
Suddenly, Luo Xing heard Liu Yan scream from afar, filled with pain.
Looking around, I was surprised to find that Liu Yan had been injured by the poisonous sting of a scorpion beast.
Liu Yan's arms had turned purple, her face was turning black, and her expression was somewhat ferocious.
Luo Xing panicked instantly, not expecting Liu Yan to be defeated so quickly and even injured by the poison.
"This is troublesome. Where are we going to find poison in this desert?"
"No, we have to take him and leave quickly, hurry."
"Lily, hurry up."
"You carry it first, I'll go get it!"
Lili nodded, then carried him on her back and ran deeper into the desert.
Seeing that more and more scorpions were rushing towards him, Luo Xing no longer held back and unleashed his flames!
As soon as the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame appeared, the scorpion beasts immediately retreated, as they could feel the heat emanating from the flames. Fear even filled their eyes.
They were born with a fear of things like fire, except, of course, their king.
Not only did it possess the youthful earth core fire, but the next second, the bone exquisite fire also began to swirl around it.
Luo Xing originally wanted to summon the little thunder dragon, but unexpectedly, the little thunder dragon was fast asleep. Enraged, Luo Xing began to curse loudly.
This kid usually does nothing, but when it comes to a crucial moment, he falls into a deep sleep, and no matter how you call him, you can't wake him up.
Luo Xing was so angry that she wanted to hit him with the sole of her shoe, but even hitting him wouldn't work.
If Little Thunder Dragon were here, just one roar from him would probably make these scorpion beasts retreat in fear, too scared to take another step forward.
Of course, it was too late to say anything now, and Luo Xing could only respond with flames.
Fortunately, because of the flames, the scorpion beast dared not approach again. Of course, this was only for a moment; after a while, Luo Xing didn't linger, deciding whether the flames would continue to attack. The next second, he ran towards Lili's direction.
Luo Xing ran further and further away, finally catching up with Lili and Liu Yan. Looking back, he finally saw that the scorpion beasts had disappeared.
All three of them were panting heavily, finally surviving this ordeal.
However, when they looked at Liu Yan, their brows furrowed more and more.
Liu Yan lay there behind Lili, looking like she was on her last breath.
In a panic, Luo Xing quickly fed him all the instant detoxification pills in the system space, but after a while, there was no improvement in Liu Yan's complexion.
"Damn it, it seems this scorpion venom is an exception; my pills can't cure it."
"What should I do?"
In a panic, Luo Xing turned around and ran around in all directions.
Looking at this boundless desert, the more I looked, the more desolate I felt. This desert was practically barren, devoid of any vegetation. Aside from sandstorms, there were only scattered rocks and sand, and those... clingy scorpion beasts.
At this moment, Luo Xing remembered what Zhao Qingtian had said. What difference was there between the Tager Desert and the forbidden zone? Moreover, there was no water source in this desert. If one was exposed to the desert for a long time, it would be no different from waiting to die.
"Alright, now we can only continue deeper into the desert."
"Hopefully, we can find the antidote deep in the desert."
Lili nodded without saying anything more. There was no better way now. If she wanted to save Liu Yan, she could only grit her teeth and keep going.
Throughout the journey, Luo Xing continuously channeled spiritual energy into Liu Yan. Fortunately, Luo Xing's intense spiritual energy was able to temporarily help Liu Yan resist the poison.
Although the scorpion beast is not strong in combat, its venom is extremely difficult to produce, and even Luo Xing cannot cure it.
The three of them didn't know how long they had been walking in the desert, at least seven or eight hours. It was still a barren desert, with nothing at all.
They walked for who knows how long, walking and walking, when a strong wind suddenly arose.
They unfortunately encountered another sandstorm halfway through their journey. Forced by the sandstorm, the three of them continued deeper into the wilderness. The area became even more desolate.
At first, when you enter the desert, you can at least see some flowers and plants, or cacti and the like. But the further you go into the desert, the more desolate it becomes.
But as he walked, Luo Xing suddenly froze, looking in a certain direction, and saw a small house.
It's a small house made of stone.
That little house stood there in the middle of the desert, seemingly out of place.
It seems somewhat out of place that such a house would appear in the desert. In fact, from a distance, there even seems to be the smell of cooking fires.
At the top of the stone house, there was a chimney that was belching out thick black smoke.
This made Luo Xing even more puzzled. Could it be that someone was cooking inside?
Lili rubbed her eyes too, and began to wonder if it was a mirage.
"My Lord Barbarian, what's going on with that house over there?"
"A room suddenly appeared here; it feels a bit eerie."
Luo Xing nodded and began to agree, saying that it was indeed somewhat strange.
"We should be cautious. There's no other way now, so we have to bite the bullet and head there."
Lili nodded, while Liu Yan continued to lie on his back, completely exhausted.
The three of them walked toward the small stone house, but the closer they got, the more uneasy they felt.
Luo Xing actually discovered a spirit array near this stone house, which was able to resist the sandstorm.
The area around the spirit array is radiating spiritual energy. Could it be that someone is cultivating inside?
The three of them finally stood in front of the small stone house.
Is anyone home? Is anyone inside?
Luo Xing mustered her courage and went up to knock on the door.
I knocked four or five times, but no one answered the door.
This made Luo Xing a little angry. He could clearly sense that there were people inside, but no one opened the door.
"No one's opening the door yet? Then don't blame me for taking action."
"I'm sorry, I was too eager to save lives. I'll rebuild 100 stone houses for you later."
The next second, Luo Xing suddenly unleashed his fighting spirit.
With a loud bang, he was about to slam his fist into the door of the stone house.
But just as his fist made contact with the door, a burst of spiritual energy suddenly blocked his way, neutralizing his spiritual energy.
His attacks had absolutely no effect on the stone door.
"Who is it? Who is it? Disturbing me."
Just then, the stone door slowly opened, and an elderly man wearing a blue shirt walked out. The old man had a full head of white hair, was hunched over, and looked somewhat weathered.
Luo Xing only glanced at it before immediately becoming alert; this was definitely a powerful expert.
