Chapter 174 - Traces of ghosts

Ghost Face used Earth Escape and fled to the back of a sand dune five miles away. Panting, he dragged his huge and heavy mace and walked on the sand for a long time.

He didn't dare to show his head above the sand dune, lest he be chased by the warriors again, so he could only escape with the help of Earth Escape.

But this "Earth Escape" vitality skill consumes a lot of energy. He only needs to perform Earth Escape ten or twenty times to drain all his energy. It is impossible to escape from this thousands of miles of desert by using Earth Escape.

There is no water or food in the desert, and it is impossible to walk out of this desert on two legs. I am afraid that I will be trapped in this vast desert within two or three days.

The leader of the sand bandits looked at the surrounding yellow sand with a ghostly face, feeling a little desperate.

Once upon a time, he was the overlord of this vast desert and the leader of the sand bandits.

But now that the Scorpion King is dead, his biggest reliance on controlling this desert is gone. The sand village was captured by the cavalry, and he could not go back.

They're all a bunch of damned warriors from that cavalry team.

He still hasn't figured out the origin of this group of warriors. They suddenly wanted to attack his village and were caught off guard by the attack.

"Oasis! Only by returning to the oasis and seeing the Saint can there be hope of survival! The Saint will definitely avenge me! Yes, the Saint's strength will definitely destroy them! I will go find the Saint!"

The ghost had a sinister look on his face and ran towards the canyon.

After a short while, his energy recovered slightly, "Whoosh!" An earth escape technique appeared five miles ahead, getting closer to the canyon.

He has the earth escape technique and can completely avoid the horse team and quietly enter the depths of the canyon oasis.

...

Mu Bing, Qin Yu'er, and Zhao Zhong, six martial arts masters, rode their horses around the sand where the ghost face disappeared for a long time, but they all could only stare blankly.

"The leader of the sand bandits, Ghost Face, is an earth-type warrior. He probably used earth escape to escape. What should we do? This desert is so big, there is no way to find him!"

"Which of you knows the earth escape technique?"

"I don't know how to escape, so I can't catch up with him! Moreover, I don't know the direction, so I can't catch up with him!"

Everyone was in trouble.

Cao Youwen was very sorry. The explosion of her wine mist just burned the Scorpion King to death, but failed to burn the ghost face, so the ghost face escaped.

Mu Bing soon discovered that Ye Fan, who was flying high in the sky, was also missing. She quickly asked: "Where is the young master? Have any of you seen him?"

Qin Yuer shook his head and thought of something quickly, guessing: "He flies high and can see very far. He must have discovered the whereabouts of Ghost Face and followed him, so he is not here! With Brother Ye's strength, this Ghost Face must be You're not his opponent, don't worry!"

Mu Bing thought about it and said to everyone: "There's no point in waiting here. Let's go back to the canyon sand village and wait for news about him!"

The Scorpion King had been burned into a pile of charred and cooked meat. Even the blood essence elixir deep inside the body was still barely useful, and it was worth about ten yuan stones.

Cao Youwen happily dug out the blood essence inner elixir and put it into her storage bag. This was her biggest gain since she went out to practice this time.

But in fact, she spent more. A palm-sized small gourd of the third level and ninth grade "Tian Xiang Zui" was worth at least a hundred yuan stones. This blood essence inner elixir is obviously not worth a tenth of it.

Of course, she doesn't care too much about this. This time she went out to experience alone away from her family, and her grandfather gave her a lot of fine wine. This Scorpion King was also the strongest beast she had ever killed independently.

No one else had any objections.

The way Zhao Zhong and others looked at her now felt more dangerous than when they looked at the Scorpion King, and they did not dare to have any objections.

They are completely confused now. What is the origin of Ye Fan and his party? Their hidden strength is so powerful. Even Cao Youwen, Ye Fan's personal "maid", was able to burn the terrifying Scorpion King to ashes with one move.

"Let's go! Go back to Shazhai!"

Then, the warriors and their six cavalry galloped towards the canyon.

...

Ye Fan spread his wings and flew in the air, following the ghost face all the way through the canyon towards the large oasis in the canyon.

This oasis is about tens of miles in scope, surrounded by a ring of peaks and canyons. There are many streams and springs in the valley, trees and jungles can be seen everywhere, and there are even many ferocious beasts dormant. It is a rare place of life in the desert.

"The sand village has been captured, and Ghost Face will definitely not be able to go back. Ghost Face fled all the way to the depths of the oasis. Where is he going to escape to? Is there a hidden cave deep in this canyon?"

Ye Fan flew slowly, a little puzzled.

He was not in a hurry to take action, wanting to see if Ghost Face had any other hidden means to rely on.

The leader of the sand bandits, Ghost Face, is now alone. He has lost his sand village and even the Scorpion King has been killed. The grasshopper who has now become the Queen of Autumn cannot live long.

The ghost face appeared deep in the oasis, near an ancient ruin several miles away.

This ruins is a palace, but it has long since collapsed. It is overgrown with weeds and collapsed stone ruins can be seen everywhere. Judging from the traces on the stones of this ruin, it is estimated that the history of the destruction is extremely long.

Ghost Face performed Earth Escape five or six times in a row. Panting from exhaustion, he came to a ruins of a palace.

After moving a huge boulder, a stone door was revealed on the ground that opened to the ground. There are some mysterious sacrificial patterns carved on the stone door, which seem to be the sacrificial patterns of the human race.

Ghost Face reached into his arms and was about to take out something to open the stone door of the underground palace.

"That's not right!"

Suddenly, Ghost Face noticed something was wrong. There was a faint shadow on the forest floor not far away. He originally thought it was the shadow of a bird in the sky, but the shadow actually stayed where it was.

Is this shadow spying on me? !

The ghost's face trembled, and he couldn't help but suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky.

I saw Ye Fanfei hundreds of feet in the air, holding his arms condescendingly, watching his every move coldly.

"Impossible! Why are you not dead? Weren't you swallowed by the whirlpool of sand! ... No, you flew into the sky early in the morning and have been following me?"

The ghost's face was full of shock and astonishment, and he cried out.

He suddenly figured it out, and suddenly felt that he had been deeply stupid. He ran for his life and was completely unaware of the people watching him from high in the sky. Instead, he brought this dangerous enemy to the place where he had always hidden.

"Ghost Face, you are very familiar with this ruins! There should be something hidden underground here. Let me guess... is there an underground palace down here? You didn't go to other places and escaped here. There must be something hidden down here. Something, or someone, can save your life!"

Ye Fan was a little curious instead.

Hundreds of feet high in the sky, Ghost Face had no means to threaten him. And he has many ways to torture Ghost Face to death.

"Who are you? Why did you attack my Shazhai for no reason and come to track down my secrets! I advise you to leave here. This is not something you can mess with."

The ghost-faced mace pointed at the sky and said angrily to Ye Fan.

"I'm just an adventurer! As a qualified adventurer, I will be interested in all unknown secrets. I originally just wanted to find the underground palace in the desert. I didn't expect that there is an extra sand village here, occupying the mountain. As the king. You don't need any reason to rob, and I'm just doing it incidentally by destroying your sand village."

Ye Fan said lightly.

As he spoke, a series of chi-long wind blades gradually formed in his hand, totaling nine in total. He waved his hand, and these wind blades shot down like a storm of wind blades.

Ghost Face hurriedly waved his mace to resist the wind blades falling from the sky, shouting angrily.

He had to resist, but he couldn't fight back against Mark. The dense wind blades struck the mace, and slashes were made on the hard mace weapon.

"Poof!"

A wind blade cut into Guimian's face. Guimian failed to dodge, and the wind blade immediately knocked off a "Ghost Face" mysterious weapon on his face.

The ghostly face was disheveled, with a deep bloodstain on his face, revealing a ferocious and terrifying face. He looked up at Ye Fan in the sky. Half of his rough face was normal, but the other half was as dry and skinny as a zombie, looking extremely terrifying in broad daylight.

"Ghost face? Are you a human or a ghost? Why do you have such a face!?"

Ye Fan was suddenly shocked. He didn't expect that the leader of the sand bandits, Ghost Face, actually had a terrifying face that was "half human and half ghost". Half of it turned into a corpse, but strangely, the other half still had a normal human face.

Ghost Face found that his mask had been knocked off, and when Ye Fan saw his ferocious face, he couldn't help but panic.

But soon, he calmed down, raised his head and laughed wildly, "Of course I was once a human warrior. However, since I was hunted down by humans in my early years, almost died tragically, and was saved by the ghost saint priestess. I have already surrendered to the ghosts. tribe, become a believer of the ghost tribe! The Holy Priestess has given me immortality, and I can live forever. I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, otherwise the Holy Priestess will turn you into a ghost puppet and make you a ghost slave forever. The whole In the Shenwu Continent, only our ghost clan is the eternal clan. Sooner or later, the Dongzhou human race and Nanzhou beast clan will become the territory of our ghost clan, and you will all become puppets. All living things in the world, only my ghost clan will not die. Those who believe in my religion will be able to live forever. Get eternal life! If you can't kill me, kill me once and I can still come back to life again."

The ghost face pointed at Ye Fan in the sky, with a crazy look on his face, and he screamed and roared wildly.

Ye Fan frowned slightly and ignored his crazy howling. Instead, he said calmly: "You seem to have missed one of the Beizhou Spirit Clan! The Spirit Clan are also immortal. In terms of longevity, the Spirit Clan is longer than other races! Even a saint-level powerhouse would not dare to talk about immortality, so you are going too far! Besides..." He paused after saying this.

"..."

Ghost Face opened his mouth, his expression stagnant, but unable to refute.

The Eldar are a bit special.

When humans and beasts die, once their corpses are left behind, they can be used by ghosts and become ghost skeletons or ghost zombies. This is a huge advantage for the ghost clan.

But the spirits are living beings condensed by the vitality of heaven and earth. When they are alive, they become Yuanlings. When they die, their vitality dissipates and returns to heaven and earth. So there is no possibility of becoming a puppet of the ghost clan.

Moreover, the lifespan of the Spirit Race is also extremely long. Although it is not immortal, it can easily exist for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

"If I kill you, you will never be able to come back to life!"

Ye Fan said lightly.

Above the palm of his right hand, a ball of lightning that became increasingly brighter gradually condensed.
