Where Have All the Big Scorpions Gone?
Gu Heng just felt refreshed.
Glanced back.
A few dozen steps away, there was still a huge sandstorm in the desert, but it was not as severe as it was a few days ago, and there was no movement below...
"Speaking of which, is this place really dangerous?"
During the days that Gu Heng was resting in the deserted city, he heard that some practitioners from East Xinjiang who had entered earlier had completed the assessment and were successfully sent out, taking the lead!
But after they came out, it was said that they were all still in shock, as if they had experienced a near-death experience!
They said the environment inside was "extremely horrifying, full of murderous intent," and that if one wasn't careful one could die suddenly and so on...
After hearing this, Gu Heng subconsciously thought, is this true?
The Holy Dragon Cave Mansion "looks" very dangerous, but actually, it's just that.
It was indeed very scary when dozens or even hundreds of extremely huge scorpions suddenly rushed out of the desert, shaking their tails and pincers towards him. However, Gu Heng felt that they were just scary and those scorpions were not dangerous at all.
He can kill them all with one strike!
I don't know if he is too strong or Scorpion is too weak.
If he is too strong, then I am just a Nascent Soul, or am I no longer a Nascent Soul now, but in a stronger and higher realm?
He doesn't know!
Gu Heng didn't have any means to test his strength. It would be impossible to find someone to try his hand at, especially those acquaintances who thought he was a "hidden master", because in their eyes, he was an unfathomable master.
The key point of unfathomable is "unfathomable"…
Gu Heng didn't want his "expert appearance" and moral integrity to be shattered to pieces and not be able to be put back together again.
It is not appropriate to find strangers. After all, everyone has serious work to do. If someone has nothing to do, they can try their hand at him. If the attempt turns into a failure, the consequences will be disastrous.
Summarize.
There is nothing I can do.
Gu Heng reluctantly threw away all the rumors he had heard outside from his mind and took out the goose feather knife.
Let's go on, head towards that mountain.
"Um--?"
After walking a few steps forward, Gu Heng heard some strange noises coming from the side and behind him, in the sandstorm.
Although there was a sandstorm disturbing him, he was still able to see and hear clearly. Turning his head, he found two figures about two hundred steps away, running wildly in the sandstorm. Looking more closely, Gu Heng saw that behind the two figures, there were five or six scorpions chasing them!
Okay.
There are indeed more than just a few scorpions in this desert.
But being chased by these scorpions in such a miserable state...it shouldn't be that serious!
As they got closer, Gu Heng discovered that the two poor guys being chased were both very young girls, and both were injured. They had to escape for their lives in the sandstorm, and they made themselves look very embarrassed.
Although they were being chased very closely, they did not give up hope. While speeding up their escape, they also swung their swords fiercely at the scorpions that wanted to poke them with their tails. However, it seemed to have little effect. After slashing many times with the sword, none of the scorpions' tails broke. Instead, their tails were aroused.
After thinking about it, he decided to lend a hand.
Although in such a "dangerous place", it is best not to get involved with unfamiliar practitioners. People's hearts are unpredictable, and no one dares to say that they can predict the kindness or evil of people.
But since Gu Heng was a doctor and was willing to help others, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Although the world has never said that good people will live long, it is never a bad thing to accumulate good deeds.
Gu Heng changed direction and ran towards the two girls.
After a while, he arrived at the location and joined the battle. The scorpions did notice that there was another piece of fresh meat to eat, so they immediately rushed towards Gu Heng!
"careful!"One of the girls, who looked older and more mature, hurriedly reminded Gu Heng that these half-human-high scorpions were actually far more dangerous than they appeared!
The two sisters accidentally separated from the main group, and in panic they touched a chaotic space gap somewhere in the Holy Dragon Cave Mansion, and were sent to this "Dragon Scorpion Desert".
Then, after walking for a few hours, they were spotted by a dragon scorpion beast.
After being chased for such a long time, the two sisters were almost exhausted, and the Qi in their Dantian was almost dried up. If they didn't see a way out, they would die!
Although a stranger who might be a helper suddenly appeared and rushed towards the dragon scorpion beast, the older girl always felt that he might be a moth flying into a flame!
He seemed to have no aura of cultivation at all!
Although these dragon scorpion beasts are only in their infancy, only those in the fusion stage can handle the siege of more than two at the same time!
However...
Gu Heng chopped the two scorpions that rushed towards him into two pieces with one knife!
?
He didn't even look at the scorpion corpse, and continued to wield the goose-feather knife, killing the remaining scorpions like chopping melons and vegetables.
The older girl and another younger girl stood there in a daze, watching Gu Heng standing next to the corpses of several dragon scorpion beasts. He casually inserted the goose feather knife into the sand, stirred it a few times, and then pulled it out.
"Well, it's worthy of being my masterpiece, still so smooth and sharp."
Gu Heng looked at the scorpion blood on the surface being cleaned by the sand and nodded with satisfaction.
"Are the two girls okay?"
After getting rid of those scorpions, Gu Heng realized that the two girls were as pale as paper, with sweat dripping from their foreheads, and they were looking at him with dull eyes.
Um?
This look is very strange, what does it mean?
Gu Heng frowned, looked around, and found that his clothes did not expose his buttocks, and there was no tear or dirt anywhere.
Was it because my posture just now wasn't handsome enough?
"…Uh, we're fine, thank you for your help, senior!"
The older girl finally came to her senses, wiped the sweat from her forehead, turned to look at her sister, her almond eyes full of concern and anxiety.
senior?
When an old man called him "senior", Gu Heng just took it as a joke, but when two little sisters called him "senior"...
Do you look old?
If this place wasn't considered a safe area, Gu Heng would have had a seizure on the spot.
"It's not safe here yet. Whenever there's a sandstorm there seem to be scorpions. Come with me."
Gu Heng led them all the way to the edge of the desert where he was just now. Here the ground was a mixture of green grass and sand, and the sandstorm had come out.
He turned around and looked.
Inside the sandstorm, more than a dozen scorpions were waiting there, but they did not chase us out. Instead, they went straight back or went deep into the desert.
Speaking of which…
Gu Heng just discovered it.
The scorpions he had just killed, although still of unusual size, were not as large as the ones he had killed a few days ago.
It's much smaller.
So young.
What I mean is, where have all those giant scorpions as big as lions and tigers gone?
