Chapter 74 Death Desert
Ling Haichao raised his hand and said, "You're welcome, Master Haklu. You saved my life many years ago. It's only right that I repay you today."

Haruko nodded: "Okay then, since Master Ling said so, I'll treat you all today, and let's set off tomorrow."

Ling Haichao: "Okay."

After the discussion, everyone settled in Gudan City.

Haruko performed witchcraft and cooked a delicious meal for Zhao Jiuxiao and others.

In addition, at the request of He Zhengyang, he used witchcraft to make a jar of wine to make him drunk.

In this way, everyone rested in the city for a day.

Early the next morning, Haklu led everyone to leave Gudan City and embarked on the road to the Desert of Death.

The Death Desert is one of the most dangerous areas in the entire Quicksand Country, even more daunting than the Flame Desert.

Not long after walking, everyone also saw a wooden sign standing there.

I saw it written in the language of Liusha Kingdom: "This place is dangerous. If you continue to move forward, you will be responsible for your life or death."

Zhao Jiuxiao and the others couldn't understand these words, and it was Haklu who told them.

But even in such a situation, everyone still did not stop and entered the desert.

Gongsun Wuji has already taken out the gossip mirror, observing the terrain and pointing the way.

Haruko has never been to the Death Desert, and he also knows nothing about the situation here.

The sun shone on everyone, still hot.

However, relying on the heat-relieving tea he drank in advance, the hot feeling has disappeared.

Along the way, Zhao Jiuxiao also saw a lot of bones and weapons ahead.

Most of the weapons are already rusted.

Ling Haichao also looked around vigilantly, ready to respond at any time.

But at this moment, Gongsun Wuji shouted: "Everyone wait a moment!"

Everyone stopped immediately and stood where they were.

Gongsun Wuji picked up a bone and threw it on the sand ahead.

This area suddenly began to sink, quickly engulfing the bones.

Sima You became nervous and held the rein tightly: "It looks like quicksand."

He Zhengyang: "If I fall in, I'm afraid I will die."

Luo Wenyuan: "I'll try again."

As he spoke, he also shot an arrow there.

"Whoosh!" After the sharp arrow hit the target, it sank quickly and disappeared again.

Luo Wenyuan nodded: "It is indeed quicksand, everyone be careful."

Gongsun Wuji waved his hand: "Don't worry, I have calculated the area where the quicksand is located. Just follow me."

After saying that, he led the way and rode on his horse.

Everyone followed suit.

Just as Gongsun Wuji said, there was no quicksand in the area where his horse stepped, so it was very safe.

Everyone passed here smoothly and did not die on the quicksand.

But at this moment, the surrounding ground began to shake.

Ling Haichao asked: "What happened again?"

Gongsun Wuji smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid it's a scorpion."

Before the words were finished, scorpions emerged from the sand one by one.

They are not small, as big as a tiger, with a hard shell and a scorpion tail.

These monsters add up to thousands of them.

Haklu instructed: "It's a desert poisonous scorpion. It's very poisonous. Be careful, everyone, don't be stung by the scorpion's tail."

Ling Haichao had already pulled out the Yanling Saber, nodded, and flew up.

The poisonous scorpions also rushed towards him, some attacked Ling Haichao's arms and legs with pincers, trying to pinch them off, and some stabbed them with their scorpion tails.

[Quicksand impact! 】Haclu performed witchcraft, let the quicksand combine together and turned into a shock wave, directly knocking out the poisonous scorpion approaching him.

Although these monsters did not die immediately, they were also injured.

[Quicksand whirlwind! 】Hucklu's witchcraft did not stop, he chanted the spell again, turning the quicksand into a whirlwind, sweeping the poisonous scorpion into it, and becoming dizzy.

Immediately afterwards, Haklu used the witchcraft of [Quicksand Impact] to penetrate the bodies of these poisonous scorpions, bleed out a lot of green blood, and lay down there to die.

[Heaven moves the sword technique! 】Facing the Poisonous Scorpion's offensive, Ling Haichao waved the long knife in his hand, blocking high and low, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

The silver knife light drew countless arcs, cut off the scorpion's pincers, and also cut off the scorpion's tail, spurting green blood.

These poisonous scorpions began to howl. Although they did not die immediately, they were also seriously injured.

The disciples of Mad Saber Sect also drew their swords out of their sheaths and used their sword skills.

However, their sword skills were not as powerful as Ling Haichao, and were blocked by the hard shell of the scorpion.

Some disciples of the Mad Saber Sect couldn't dodge in time, their arms were cut off by the pliers, and some were stabbed by scorpion tails, their faces turned blue, and they died of poison soon.

Zhao Jiuxiao immediately said: "Hero Luo, Shaoxia Gongsun, protect the disciples of the Crazy Sword Sect, and the others will follow me to kill the enemy."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

[Tiangang Palm Technique! 】Gongsun Wuji made a move, waving his palms continuously, releasing a series of Gang Qi.

The poisonous scorpion was hit by the stellar energy and was knocked to the ground one after another.

Luo Wenyuan also sat on the horse, let the horse keep moving, and shot by himself.

His sharp arrow was extremely accurate, and it directly shot through the vital point of the injured poisonous scorpion, killing it.

At the same time, He Zhengyang, Xuanyuanfeng, Sima You and others also used their martial arts to deal with powerful enemies.

Especially Xuanyuanfeng's [Wudang Cotton Palm], facing the attack of the poisonous scorpion's scorpion tail, his gentle palm style can directly dissolve it and disappear invisibly.

After careful observation, Zhao Jiuxiao jumped in front of the poisonous scorpion.

[Six Meridians Excalibur! 】He stretched out the middle finger of his right hand, releasing a strong sword energy, from top to bottom, straight to the back of the poisonous scorpion.

"Bang!" The blow pierced the target, causing green blood to appear on the poisonous scorpion's body.

The rest of the poisonous scorpions quickly surrounded, swept continuously with their pincers, and the scorpions' tails also stabbed straight ahead.

[Phantom Confused! 】Zhao Jiuxiao performed lightness kung fu, like countless phantoms, confusing the enemy's attention.

The poisonous scorpion flew into the air one after another, but failed to hit him.

Zhao Jiuxiao himself also activated his internal force, releasing four invisible sword qi.

Three of them are flexible sword qi, slashing in the air, hundreds of times.

And the last strong sword energy struck again when necessary, directly cutting off the tail and body of the poisonous scorpion.

A large amount of green blood spurted out, discoloring the ground.

The poisonous scorpion was hit continuously by the invisible sword energy, and his body was covered with scars, and he could no longer support it.

Others were split into two pieces by Zhao Jiuxiao's powerful sword energy and died on the spot.

Along with the attack, Zhao Jiuxiao's sword energy became more and more handy.

He turned around, and the six sword qi followed him, sweeping and stabbing towards him.

"Bang!" Wherever the sword energy passed, it either pierced the poisonous scorpion's head or directly cut off the poisonous scorpion's heart.

Zhao Jiuxiao's own offensive continued unabated and killed countless enemies.

Coupled with the combined attacks of others, the thousands of venomous scorpions were finally reduced to a few, and they escaped underground.

Everyone also retracted their weapons and relaxed.

Looking at the dead disciples of Mad Saber Sect on the ground, Ling Haichao cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry for you."

After speaking, he ordered his disciples to bury these corpses on the spot.
