Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 67 Hai Bodong's Shock

Achoo! Achoo!

Xiao Bai stood at the city gate and sneezed several times.

At this moment, he and Hai Bodong had just left the city gate of Mo City, preparing to head to Shimo City together.

"Xiao Bai, did you catch a chill last night?"

Hai Bodong gave Xiao Bai a strange look. This kid had been sneezing non-stop since he woke up this morning. Cultivators have basic control over their bodies, especially those with strong souls, who have even more impressive control over their bodies.

But Xiao Bai has been sneezing for almost an hour! With his powerful soul force, this shouldn't be the case!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai glanced at him sideways, knowing that cultivators couldn't be like ordinary people and wouldn't be susceptible to catching a cold.

Is this old guy mocking his cultivation level?

As for why he sneezed, he didn't know either! It's so uncomfortable, it's happening again.

"Achoo!"

"You didn't do something that would incur divine wrath and be talked about by everyone, did you?" Hai Bodong suddenly remembered that some women in the Mittel family had said the same thing.

When you miss someone and feel resentment, if you keep repeating that person's name, that person will sneeze repeatedly.

"Heh~" Xiao Bai sneered, continuing his disdainful remarks: "Heaven's wrath and people's resentment? You think everyone is like you? That girl in red has cleaned your shop for years and often visits you, this lonely old man, and yet you still speak coldly and look impatient!"

He knew that the girl had ulterior motives, and her eyes were full of spoiled and willful behavior, but that didn't stop him from using it to tease Hai Bodong!

After hearing this, Hai Bodong knew that he was referring to the incident that morning. The girl in red had come to his shop early in the morning, intending to clean it for him as usual, but he had coldly told her to never come again.

He chuckled and said, "Young friend Xiao Bai, it's not that I'm targeting her, it's just that her father's tricks are too lame, and besides, I'm a person who naturally loves freedom, teaching students is just too much trouble, she has no future with me!"

Xiao Bai simply used this incident to change the subject, to stop Hai Bodong from dwelling on his sneezing, so he didn't say anything more.

"Let's go!" Xiao Bai took the lead and headed towards the Tagor Desert.

The sun hangs high in the sky, and the desert sands are like snow.

Stepping into the Tagor Desert, one is greeted by endless expanses of yellow sand, as if entering another world.

Two figures trudged through the vast desert, braving the raging sandstorm. Behind them, two rows of footprints, deeply embedded in the yellow sand, were soon buried by the sand.

Suddenly, a flash of crimson light appeared beneath the feet of the young man in black robes and white hair, and a mournful screech echoed from the yellow sand not far away.

Then a wisp of black smoke rose from the yellow sand, and with a wave of Xiao Bai's sleeve, a small, charred magical beast appeared in sight.

He glanced at it casually. This kind of magical beast is called the Sand Poison Scorpion. It often hides under the sand and waits for people to pass by or step on it before it suddenly thrusts its tail and releases venom.

Because these magical beasts are naturally good at hiding, even seasoned veterans who travel in the desert year-round can easily fall victim to them. For mercenaries who hunt magical beasts in the desert, they are considered quite troublesome.

His gaze shifted from the monster's corpse to the undulating sand dunes in the distance.

Xiao Bai had never been to the desert before. The environment here was harsher than he had expected. The little Yi in his body was faintly emitting a kind of Yi wood energy, which made him feel less uncomfortable. On the contrary, he felt a refreshing sensation all over his body.

Xiao Bing was quite active in this environment, and it seemed to really like it here. He could feel its eagerness when it was released earlier.

As for Hai Bodong, his old face and clothes were covered with a faint frost, and his expression was very calm.

Seeing that ice could be used to apply to the face in the desert, Xiao Bai was speechless. So what if ice is amazing?

"Old Hai, based on your estimate, how much longer until we reach Stone Desert City?"

This was their second day in the desert.

"At this rate, it will probably take another three days!" Hai Bodong looked at the sky, then at the desert, and even reached out to test the wind direction before saying this.

"Three days! Why aren't there any Thick-winged Birds flying from Mo City to Stone Mo City?" Xiao Bai said, taking a sip of water from his water bottle.

"Too few people, no profit!" Hai Bodong took a sip of water and continued, "If I flew alone, it would only take me an hour at most!"

"You can fly?" Xiao Bai asked in surprise.

"Nonsense, of course I can fly. Although I'm a Dou Ling now, I'm a Dou Huang!" Hai Bodong glanced at Xiao Bai.

"You should have said so earlier!" Xiao Bai had always thought that he couldn't fly. Since Hai Bodong didn't say anything, he didn't feel comfortable asking. After all, this matter was like reopening old wounds. Thinking that it wasn't far, he decided to take a stroll through the desert and experience its charm.

"I can't carry people right now!" Hai Bodong said hesitantly, a little embarrassed.

He currently only has the cultivation level of a Dou Ling. He can fly, but only alone, and he has to rest after flying only a short distance.

Seeing that Xiao Bai didn't mention flying, he assumed that Xiao Bai couldn't fly until he reached the Dou Wang level, so he was too embarrassed to say it and walked with him instead.

"Who asked you to take me? I thought you couldn't fly! You should have said so earlier if you could!" Xiao Bai said, and the Purple Cloud Wings on his back suddenly unfolded.

"Holy crap, you're a Fighting King?"

Hai Bodong was stunned when he saw the pair of purple energy wings. He had always thought that Xiao Bai was already quite good at the level of a Great Dou Master at the age of less than twenty.

Even if we guess at the highest level, it would be the same as his current cultivation level: Battle Spirit.

Suddenly, a pair of energy wings, the kind only those at the Dou Wang level or higher possess, appeared. What kind of monster is this? Is this some old guy pretending to be young?

It's quite possible. Just think about this guy's abnormal mental strength; it's something even a five-star Dou Huang can't match.

Fortunately, this guy didn't go all out yesterday, otherwise he might have been killed before the soul seal was even completed.

No wonder even a tiny wisp of that crimson lightning gave him a faint sense of danger!

"Ahem, Xiao... Xiao Bai, let's go, I'll lead the way!" Hai Bodong said respectfully.

He felt he couldn't think any further. If he hadn't been so unsure, he would have called out to Senior Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai felt that this old guy was a bit strange. He was shocked at first, and after his expression changed several times, his attitude became respectful.

It's just a pair of wings! Don't act like he can tear space apart with his bare hands!

At this moment, a pair of ice-blue wings appeared behind Hai Bodong. As soon as the wings appeared, a cool aura rushed towards him.

Then, with a flap of its wings, it took the lead and flew off in one direction. Seeing this, Xiao Bai pushed off the ground with both legs and hurriedly followed.

After flying into the sky, Xiao Bai felt much better than on the ground. On the ground, the sand and dust that were constantly being stirred up would hit his face and get into his nose and mouth, forcing him to use his fighting spirit to cover his face, which was very uncomfortable.

With the fierce winds blowing high in the sky, in less than an hour, the faint outline of a city gradually appeared in their field of vision.

We've arrived at Stone Desert City!
