Chapter 222 Oasis (asking for monthly ticket)

I have finally mastered the fourth sword of Shenxiao.

Originally, he thought that he would not be able to practice the fourth sword unless he entered the realm of immortality.

It seems there is still a chance now.

He knew that his ability to get in was 100% related to Chen Zhong.

Although he was just getting started, he could still feel the horror of the Fourth Divine Sword.

It definitely surpasses the most advanced Shenxiao Third Sword.

half year later.

The state of returning to the void appears again.

Since there was nothing happening in the outside world, Li Qian did not delay his return to the void and directly chose to enter the yellow sand world.

He is feeling a little uneasy now.

Having returned empty-handed last time, he was not optimistic about returning to the void this time.

When he appeared in the world of yellow sand, the sky was filled with yellow sand and there was still a strong wind blowing. He could not see the direction clearly and there was a rolling yellow sand between the sky and the earth.

He looked around but did not see any remains of the monster.

His heart sank.

Without the monster remains, his chances of survival in this yellow sand world would be greatly reduced.

He searched around and finally decided to dig.

But after a lot of effort, I found nothing.

He could only sit on the ground and recover his strength.

The monster's remains were either swept away by the hurricane again.

Or it's buried deep in the sand dunes.

Under such a terrible hurricane, the sand dunes will undergo tremendous changes.

In either case, it means he has lost his largest source of food.

Next, it would be almost impossible for him to encounter similar food.

But without food, how can we get through the day and see the sun the next day?

There was no other choice, Li Qian could only choose to leave.

Under the rolling yellow sand, without the scorching sun, although it was difficult to walk, he didn't want to wait to die there.

So he chose a direction at random and trudged slowly.

I don’t know how much I walked, but the wind and sand became smaller.

The vision gradually became clearer.

But he was covered in yellow sand, and his mouth and nose were full of it, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

But when he looked up at the sky, it had become much darker.

His heart sank, knowing that it would be difficult to get through this time.

In this way, he kept walking and walking until it was dark. He was exhausted, the temperature dropped suddenly, and he felt very cold.

But suddenly Li Qian stretched out his sandy hands, wiped his hazy eyes, and showed an expression of disbelief.

Isn't it an illusion?

Why are there lights ahead?

Isn't this a desert?
Li Qian observed it repeatedly and finally confirmed that it was not an illusion, but real lights, flickering, hazy, and scattered, but they were definitely lights.

He hurried over carefully, lying on the sand dune, looking into the distance. Although the light was dim, he could still vaguely see some tree shadows.
"This, is this an oasis?"

Li Qian muttered to himself, with a look of ecstasy on his face.

It is normal to have an oasis in the desert.

However, there are lights here, which means there are intelligent creatures living here.

As an outsider, if he entered rashly, he would probably be treated as an intruder.
But he is in a very bad state now.

If you don't enter the oasis and continue to stay outside, you will surely die and won't survive until the next day.

Since it's a death sentence anyway, I might as well take the risk and go in to take a look.

Thinking of this, Li Qian no longer hesitated and touched his body. Unfortunately, the claw bone was also missing. Without a weapon in his hand, he felt very insecure.

He slowly moved towards the oasis.

Nearly.

Getting closer and closer.

When he looked at the bushes in front of him, one can imagine his excitement.

In this world of yellow sand, there is yellow sand everywhere and he has never seen anything else. If it weren't for the fact that each time he would only last for less than a day before returning to the real world, he would probably have gone crazy.

Li Qian plucked a leaf without hesitation and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

As for whether it is poisonous or not, that is not something he needs to consider now.

When he ate the leaves, he immediately felt a sharp pain in his stomach, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it, not letting himself make any sound.

When the pain subsided a little, he plucked another handful of leaves and stuffed them into his mouth to eat.

After he recovered some of his strength, Li Qian started digging the ground with his hands, trying to dig a hole under the bushes so that he could hide in it.

After digging the shallow pit, Li Qian broke off some branches and leaves of shrubs to use as padding and covered his body with them, which could keep out the cold to a certain extent.

Although the effect is very general.

But at least it increased his chances of survival.

I don’t know how long it took, Li Qian endured the pain in his stomach and chewed the obscure leaves in his mouth. Suddenly he seemed to hear something?
A low, slightly rapid breathing sound.

There were also very slight footsteps that seemed to be slowly approaching.

"what?"

Li Qian became alert.

Not like a human being.

Suddenly, he saw a pair of blue eyes through the branches and leaves, as if staring at him.

Li Qian felt a chill down his spine. As it was too dark, he couldn't see clearly what it was. He only saw a rough outline, like some wild beast.

I have spent so much time in the yellow sand, and although I have heard the roars of beasts, I have never seen the wild beasts of this world.

I must have been targeted by the owner of these blue eyes.

Li Qian was holding a thicker branch in his hand, which he had broken with great effort before, and he would use it to defend himself.

At this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the distance, followed by a commotion and roars, and it was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place.

Li Qian immediately understood that there were more than one beast appearing in the oasis.

And there's more.
At this moment, the unknown beast standing outside the bushes growled and pounced towards Li Qian who was lying in the shallow pit.

Li Qian rolled suddenly, avoiding the fatal blow, and stabbed out fiercely with the branch in his hand.

Click!

But the branch broke with a sound, and his arm was numb from the shock.

The beast's fur was incredibly thick, and his attack could not hurt the beast at all.

Li Qian climbed out of the bushes and ran towards the lights in the distance.

At this time, you definitely cannot run away from the oasis.

Although there were more wild beasts in the oasis, he couldn't care less.

Hey!
The beast growled and suddenly chased after him.

Li Qian had almost fully utilized his potential. Hearing the whistling sound from behind, he rolled over suddenly. Then he heard a heavy hit on his shoulder, which gave him a cold feeling.

He didn't care about all that and dodged left and right to avoid the attack of the beast behind him.

He was hit in many places on his body. Although he didn't feel any pain, he felt that he was definitely injured, and there were more than one or two wounds.

At this time, he finally rushed into the heart of the oasis, and saw vaguely a number of simple wooden huts arranged in a circle, and human figures were resisting the invading beasts.

Li Qian suddenly failed to dodge and was knocked to the ground by the beast behind him.

The beast was extremely powerful. It opened its bloody mouth and bit towards Li Qian's head.

After all, Li Qian was born a warrior. Although he has the same physique as an ordinary person in this yellow sand world, he still has a sense of combat.

He shrank back and blocked the beast's mouth with his arms.
Li Qian felt that one of the bones in his arm was bitten to pieces.

The intense pain made him gasp, but there was also a ruthlessness in his eyes. He suddenly hugged the beast's neck with one hand and wrapped his legs around it. No matter how the beast bit him, he would not let go.

If he was thrown away by the beast, he would definitely have no chance of survival.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the camp at an astonishing speed. He seemed to be holding a simple spear in his hand. He pounced forward and stabbed the beast that was biting Li Qian.

Hey!
The beast let go of Li Qian's arm, roared and rushed towards the figure, but was stabbed in the mouth by the spear.

After a frantic struggle, the beast gradually became motionless.

Li Qian still held the beast tightly. Feeling the hot blood flowing from the beast's body, Li Qian swallowed it without hesitation.

His entire mouth and stomach immediately felt a burning pain, but he enjoyed it.

He could feel his strength recovering rapidly.

"You are a Void Returner, right?"

Suddenly, the figure who killed the beast spoke.

Li Qian endured the pain, let go of the beast, and crawled out from under its heavy corpse with difficulty. One of his arms was almost bitten off, and the blood and flesh were blurred, with white bones visible.

He looked at the person not far away, who was a burly man with a tall stature.

But the strange thing is that this person has two horns on his head and a tail.
"How did you know?"

Li Qian felt a strong sense of oppression from this man.

This man is very strong.

Even if he was in his peak form, he could not be the opponent.

Of course, I am talking about the state of returning to the void.

"Everyone who appears here is a Return to the Void, including me."

The big man said calmly.

As he said this, he dragged the beast's body and turned to walk towards the camp, "Come in."

At this time, the fighting in the camp was about to end.

The invading beasts left behind several carcasses.

Several people in the camp were also injured.

Li Qian took a quick look and saw about a dozen people.

Judging from their physical characteristics, they are obviously not from the same ethnic group.

These people also fell on Li Qian.

"It looks like there's a newcomer."

"Tsk tsk, you're pretty lucky to be able to come here."

"He is obviously a human. Humans are considered a relatively common ethnic group. In addition, they are the return point in our area. It is very likely that he is from the Immortal Realm?"

"Xu Ao, aren't you from the Immortal Realm?"

They all started talking at once.

These people are all Return to Void, so Li Qian feels a little relieved.

He doesn't have to worry about any more risks arising from his identity as a Return to Void Person.

As long as one reaches the Supreme Saint, there will definitely be quite a few people who can return to the void and enter this world.

It is normal to see a gathering point for those who have returned to the void appear here.

"Everyone here uses code names. You can choose one for yourself. My name is Tuoba."

Said the burly man who rescued Li Qian.

"Qian Yuan."

Li Qian said the name he had used.

"Fellow Daoist Qian Yuan, you are a newcomer. This is your first time entering this oasis settlement. I can only say that you are very lucky. You should know the harshness of the desert. As the temporary leader of this gathering point, I will briefly tell you the rules of the oasis."

The burly man said, "The oasis settlement is very dangerous. Situations like tonight happen all the time, so if we want to defend this oasis settlement, we must unite as one. We will implement a rotation system. Once it is someone's turn, they must stay unconditionally and not end the Return to Void at will."

"Fellow Daoist Tuoba, doesn't the Return to Void state end at dawn?"

Li Qian said in surprise.

"Who told you that returning to the void ends with time?"

The burly man Tuoba frowned and said.

"Isn't it? I always end my Return to the Void after dawn."

Li Qian said.

Could it be that my return to the void ends differently from others?
"It seems that you are lucky. You must have found some food. The sign of the end of returning to the void is either death due to lack of spiritual energy, or the body has absorbed the maximum amount of spiritual energy it needs."

Said the burly man Tuoba.

Li Qian showed a look of surprise. It turned out that the so-called time was not a sign of the end of Return to Void.

The reason why he was able to complete the return to the void every morning was obviously because he ate the flesh of the monster's corpses and absorbed sufficient energy needed by his body.

But that’s not right either.

He once took a sip of water and gained much more spiritual energy than eating meat.

If the return to the void is completed based on the maximum amount of spiritual energy absorbed by the body, the difference in the amount of spiritual energy obtained each time should not be too great.

At most, it will increase according to the progress of dimensional upgrading, and the upper limit of the body's absorption of spiritual energy will slowly increase.

Moreover, when he returned to the void once before and ate meat, he was swept into the air by a hurricane and fell down. After his return to the void, he did not bring back any spiritual energy.

However, he did not ask.

If it is related to your own system, it must not be exposed.

"I survived because I came across a carcass by chance. This time the remaining carcass was blown away by the hurricane, so I came to this oasis."

Li Qian said.

"That's right."

The burly man Tuoba nodded and said.

Then he introduced the people present to Li Qian.

Since everyone's return to the void time is different, this oasis camp will be guarded in turns.

The entire camp numbered more than thirty people.

The scene is only part of it.

The other wave of people are not yet in the state of returning to the void.

"Fellow Daoist Tuoba, how long can this state of returning to the void last?"

Li Qian sat down and asked curiously.

"It varies from person to person. The higher the level of returning to the void, the longer it can last. However, there is a limit. Once the limit is exceeded, it will become completely materialized and can no longer return. Eventually, you will die in this world as a mortal. One day in this world is equivalent to one year in the real world. After materialization, one day of life is equivalent to one year of life. Even in the secret realm of immortality, you can only live for a few decades. Moreover, in such an environment, no one can survive for a few decades."

The burly man Tuoba said, "So, remember to make sure you have enough spiritual energy in your body. You can end the Return to Void at any time, or your spiritual energy will be exhausted. You must not approach the limit time, otherwise it will be very dangerous."

"Thank you for your reminder, Fellow Daoist Tuoba. I will pay attention to it."

Li Qian said quickly.

This is definitely a matter of experience.

If he is unaware of this situation, he will be in trouble once his body materializes.

After all, his Chen Zhong is still in the real world.

Even if your life is not in danger, living in such an environment is real torture.

"There is one more thing you must pay close attention to. The danger we face in this oasis is not particularly threatening to the beast just now. Even if it is killed, we can still complete the Return to Void and leave alive. But if we encounter a Night Demon, it is best to choose suicide as soon as possible, because the Night Demon can devour the soul consciousness of the Return to Void."

The burly man Tuoba said again.

"Fellow Daoist Tuoba, what does this Night Demon look like?"

Li Qian asked.

The burly man Tuoba gave a general description of the appearance of the Night Demon.

Li Qian was shocked. Wasn’t the monster remains he had eaten before the Night Demon?
So who killed the night demon?
