The Strange West

Chapter 443: The Strange Western Land

It was a relic in the desert. Most of the ochre-colored palaces had collapsed, leaving only some ruins. The fire there was blazing, more intense than in other places.

The ruins cover a large area, several thousand acres in size. The dune giant is engulfed in flames, and its entire body is red and engulfed in flames. It has no legs or feet, but it can gallop through the streets of the ruins at high speed, passing through one street after another.

There is flying, swirling sand beneath the dune giant's body, so even though it has no legs, it is very fast.

At this moment, the dune giant was chasing Qin Mu and Pangong Co. Both of them were being chased by this dune giant. They could hear loud bangs and bangs continuously. Every blow of the dune giant was extremely heavy. It hit the desert, and sand and stones shot out like swords!

However, this sand dune giant did not damage the ruins at all. Whenever it encountered broken walls, it simply submerged itself. The red sand flowed by, but the ruins remained intact.

The magical powers of Xitu are completely different from those of Yankang. They believe that all things have spirits. Even sand and stones can transform into giants to fight. The dune giants can split mountains and rocks with one blow, and their power is unstoppable.

If they were hit by this dune giant, the terrifying force alone would be enough to seriously injure them!

But even so, Qin Mu and Pangong Co were still charging towards each other, just trying their best to avoid the attacks of the dune giants.

Pangong Tso had a broken arm and was unable to move. Although Qin Mu controlled eight thousand swords, no matter how exquisite his swordsmanship was, it was difficult to hurt the dune giant. Even if he chopped the dune giant into pieces, the giant would immediately recover as before, without any loss of strength.

Both of them have outstanding physical skills, and the dune giant's attacks are extremely domineering, but he only attacks with his fists and has no magic powers, so the threat to them is not too great.

But what was strange was that the dune giant seemed to only attack Qin Mu and ignored Pangong Tso.

"The magic of the True Heaven Palace!"

Long Qilin looked around and asked, "But where is the person who cast the spell hiding?"

"That's the guardian of the desert, not a magical power."

Xiong Qier pulled his mane and climbed onto his big head. She took a look and said, "My mother said that there are many ancient ruins in the desert. They were the places where the gods who protected the desert lived in the past. Later, these gods left, but left some guardians to guard the desert. If you are from Daxu, you will be attacked by these guardians."

Suddenly, red sand in the ruins flew, and another sand dune giant stood up and rushed towards Qin Mu at a rapid speed.

Qin Mu stretched out his hand and waved, dozens of scarlet sand dragons roared and rushed towards the dune giant, chasing Pangong Tso all the way. His vitality circulation became faster and faster, and his magical powers became more and more powerful. This was the moment when he was the strongest!

Dozens of red sands tore through the dune giants and passed through the bodies of the two giants.

"Um?"

Qin Mu was shocked, and felt that the magic power contained in this magical power of his was devoured. The sand passed through the body of the dune giant, and all the magic power contained in the sand disappeared!

Pangong Tso saw an opportunity and rushed forward with a cauldron on his head. At the back, two dune giants absorbed the magic power from his supernatural powers, swallowed up the dozens of sand dragons, and suddenly grew in size and rushed towards Qin Mu.

Qin Mu clenched his fist, raised his thumb, and fought with Pangong Tso. Pangong Tso immediately felt that his punch was not very powerful, and there was a kind of inward force in his fist, pulling him in front of him.

And when Pangong Tso saw Qin Mu's raised thumb, he felt a little creepy!

"The power of his punch lies in this finger!"

He tried his best to break free, but Qin Mu's move was not a boxing move at all, but a sword move. His thumb was his sword. If he couldn't break free, he would press down with his thumb, and the sword would surely cut him in half!

"This guy, how come his fighting skills have improved so quickly and so horribly? It's been less than a year since our last fight, how come his strength has improved so quickly?"

Pangong Co used all his strength and finally broke free from Qin Mu's fist. At this moment, the sword light at the tip of Qin Mu's thumb suddenly increased, and his vitality turned into threads. Each thread was a thin sword entangled together. The sword light chopped down with a hissing sound as Qin Mu pressed down his thumb!

Pangong Tso suddenly turned into a black shadow and fell down, sticking to the sand. The shadow moved quickly away from Qin Mu.

Qin Mu raised his hand and pressed down. Suddenly, a huge palm print with a radius of half an acre appeared on the ground. Pangong Tso breathed a sigh of relief: "This guy missed the target..."

But at this moment, the overwhelming sword light in the air buzzed and shot downwards, covering a very wide area, making it impossible for him to escape from the coverage of this sword rain.

Suddenly, the third sand dune giant stood up from under Qin Mu's feet, and the rain of swords shot down from the air suddenly got out of control. Pangong Co hurriedly freed himself from the black shadow. The black shadow turned into a man and jumped up from the desert, dodging the arrows and escaping from the ruins.

He looked back and saw Qin Mu was submerged by three sand dune giants, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

"When this guy is severely injured by the dune giant, it will be the best time for me to kill him!"

Pangongcuo had just thought of this when he saw Long Qilin rushing towards him. Pangongcuo sneered, "How dare you, a beast, attack me?"

At this point, he bowed his head and shouted, "Fatty Long!"

A huge altar immediately appeared behind him, and the demon on the altar also bowed his head in worship.

Long Qilin was unmoved. Pangong Tso was a little panicked and hurriedly bowed again: "Long Qilin!"

The dragon unicorn was not far away from him, with fire coming out of its mouth.

Pangong Tso vomited blood. He had already suffered serious injuries. This kind of spiritual power of worshipping souls was extremely depleting of his energy. Worshiping souls twice had already caused him to suffer heavy losses.

"Qingqing!" Pangong Tso gritted his teeth and bowed again.

Xiong Qier grabbed the dragon unicorn's mane and climbed onto the head of this fat giant beast, looking at Pangong Lake curiously.

A stream of blood spurted out from Pangong Lake with a loud cry, and a pillar of fire from Long Qilin's mouth emanated blazing flames, sweeping across an area of ​​more than ten miles. Wherever it passed, several sand dunes were flattened by the pillar!

Pangong Tso hurriedly hid in the cauldron, only to hear the loud clanging noise gradually fading away. The cauldron was swept into the air, fell down, and was swept away for dozens of miles.

Long Qilin ran over and saw only a sand pit and a pool of blood where the cauldron had fallen. It was obvious that Pangong Tso had escaped underground.

“My strength is not enough to stop him? Being able to live for ten thousand years is really amazing. His ability to escape is even better than the leader.” Long Qilin exclaimed.

Suddenly, there was a loud earth-shaking noise coming from the ruins. Long Qilin looked back and saw a fourth sand dune giant appearing in the ruins. The giant was more than thirty feet tall, comparable to the Thousand Buddha Pagoda of the Great Leiyin Temple. He moved extremely fast and chased Qin Mu relentlessly.

"We can't let the leader get hurt!"

Long Qilin hurriedly ran there, and suddenly Qin Mu's figure disappeared, and the next moment he appeared in front of him, floating in the air, covered in strange flames and a rapidly rotating teleportation rune array.

Qin Mu quickly put out the fire on his body and his face was burned black. Fortunately, the clothes on his body were refined by Yu Zhaoqing and other strong men of the Tianyu clan and were not destroyed in the flames.

A rustling sound was heard, and Qin Mu looked back. Those sand dune giants actually rushed out of the ruins like flying and rushed towards this side with great momentum.

"Fatty Long, move back!" Qin Mu waved his hand to stop Long Qilin from rushing over.

Those dune giants were extremely fast and soon rushed in front of Qin Mu. Then the huge sand dune shook and separated to both sides, attacking Qin Mu from both sides.

Just as they were about to pounce on Qin Mu, the teleportation rune array around Qin Mu lit up and his figure disappeared again!

Those dune giants collided with each other, sand flew all over the sky, and then one dune giant after another took shape and rushed madly to the ruins. Before these dune giants returned to the ruins, they suddenly collapsed and turned into sand dunes piled up together.

Long Qilin ran over quickly, only to see Qin Mu floating in the air, and below him was a palace that had collapsed for the most part. In the center of the palace was a shrine with a wooden statue covered with strange textures. At this moment, the head of the statue had fallen to the ground.

Qin Mu raised his hand, the Wuyou Sword flew back, and he looked at the head of the wooden statue with a serious expression.

Just now he led out these dune giants, returned to the ruins and looked around with Danxiao Sky Eye, and found that the strange texture on the wooden statue was constantly flowing, so he cut off the statue's head with a sword!

The head of the statue was chopped off, and the textures that were originally shining were now slowly extinguishing.

And at the moment he cut off the statue's head, he sensed a terrifying spiritual wave rushing out of the statue and rushing towards him, but it was blocked by the jade pendant on his chest.

“Very strange…”

Qin Mu turned around and asked, "Qier, are there any gods in your Xitu Zhentian Palace?"

Xiong Qier shook her head and said, "I've never heard of it."

Qin Mu held the jade pendant in front of his chest and whispered, "There is a spirit hidden in this statue. It attacked me even when I cut it off. The owner of the statue should still be alive."

"Master, Pangong Tso has escaped." Long Qilin said hurriedly.

Qin Mu didn't take it seriously and said, "He has been on the run for ten thousand years and has long since become a spirit. It is indeed not easy to destroy him in one fell swoop. Didn't he also escape when Imperial Master Yankang besieged the Golden Palace? What makes me nervous is that there may be a living god in the True Heaven Palace in the West..."

He raised his head and looked towards the west. The wooden statue of the god was able to gather sand into a giant, indicating that he was using the unique skills of the Zhentian Palace.

The unique skill of Zhentian Palace is called Ten Thousand Gods Natural Skill. This skill is suitable for women to practice. Although Xiong Xiyu taught this skill to Qin Mu, Qin Mu did not gain much.

"The Imperial Master and Palace Master Xiong Xiyu went to the Zhentian Palace. They might be in trouble."

Qin Mu retracted his gaze and thought, "I hope that god is not very powerful, otherwise..."

He shook his head.

"What worries me even more is why this god of the True Heaven Palace left behind these palace ruins? These dune giants were clearly used to kill the abandoned people who left the Great Ruins. What is the true face of the True Heaven Palace?"

He jumped onto the back of the dragon unicorn, and the dragon unicorn carried him towards the west, quickly running more than ten miles.

The ruins were quiet. After a while, a rustling sound was heard, and the textures on the two pieces of the wooden statue gradually lit up. The head of the wooden statue suddenly flew up and landed on the neck of the statue.

The texture of the wooden statue became brighter and brighter. It seemed that the wooden statue was slowly turning into flesh and blood. Its wooden body was actually about to turn into flesh and blood!

What was even more terrifying was that the wooden statue actually turned its head, twisted its face behind its body, and slowly opened its eyes, looking in the direction Qin Mu left.

The wooden statue spoke, its voice dry and strange: "I am a noble among the abandoned people, this lady..."

Swoosh——

A sword light came through the air parallel to the ground, piercing through the wooden statue's head that was turning into flesh and blood like lightning. Then the sword light surged and chopped the wooden statue into countless pieces!

Twenty miles away, the sword light flew back quickly and inserted into the scabbard behind Qin Mu.

"God, I have killed two or three of them too." Qin Mu put his hands in his sleeves and stood on Long Qilin's head. His body rose and fell as Long Qilin moved forward.
