Chapter 105. Mu Nujiao: When did you get a mind-body type again?
Although the monkey was somewhat reckless, he was also quite bold and meticulous. However, his earth element lacked a spirit seed, and being a powerful creature like the Sand Howling Tiger presented him with a significant challenge in battle.
"Roar~~~!!!"
With a loud roar, Sha Xiaohu leaped up from the soft ground and pounced on the monkey!
Its massive body, like a small mountain, exudes a powerful sense of oppression.
The roar of the Sand Tiger was deafening, as if it wanted to swallow the monkey whole.
"Kunzhi Forest!"
Mu Nu Jiao Jiao shouted, and magical light flashed in her hands.
"Shuashuashua!!!"
Vines burst forth from the ground, rapidly coiling around like serpents.
Soon, Sha Xiaohu's entire massive body was bound up.
The vines were strong and resilient, tightly binding the Sand Howling Tiger and rendering it unable to move.
"roar!!"
Sha Xiaohu roared, but he quickly realized that the more he struggled, the tighter the restraints became!
Its eyes were filled with anger as it struggled desperately, but to no avail.
"Let's attack together!"
Mu Nujiao said to Zhang Xiaohou.
She knew that with Mo Fan's strength, dealing with Sha Xiaohu wouldn't be difficult, but the fact that he had been watching from the beginning clearly indicated that he had no intention of intervening. Or rather, he would definitely not intervene unless they were unable to handle the situation.
"good!"
Zhang Xiaohou responded and got down. The next moment, the two of them completed the wind-based star map one after the other.
"Wind Disc - Heavenly Net!"
"Wind Disc - Heavenly Net!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"
The tearing winds roared together, and the two fierce gusts of wind began to tear apart the Sand Howling Tiger's demonic body.
The gale was like a knife, mercilessly cutting through Sha Xiaohu's body.
Sha Xiaohu struggled painfully, but its resistance seemed so futile under the powerful force of the wind disc.
Under the combined attack of Mu Nujiao and Zhang Xiaohou, even though the vines on his body dissipated, Sha Xiaohu gradually lost the ability to struggle.
Its body was torn apart by the wind, leaving it covered in wounds and blood.
Finally, Sha Xiaohu plummeted from the high school wall, crashing to the ground with a final, defiant roar.
After killing Sha Xiaohu, they quickly disposed of its carcass before continuing their journey.
They naturally encountered the group of hunter mages along the way, but after Lingling revealed her identity as a 'hunter master,' they had no choice but to slink away.
The little incident quickly passed, and the four continued their journey along the undulating sandy terrain.
This battlefield wasn't exactly boundless; after traveling for about a day, the land transformed into a Gobi desert dotted with countless exposed rocks.
The frequency of Sand Roaring Tigers appearing on the Gobi Desert has also increased, but Mo Fan has no intention of avoiding them.
Mu Nujiao and Zhang Xiaohou usually have to fight. Of course, the reason why they were able to quickly defeat Sha Xiaohu was because the opponent had been injured in a previous battle.
Faced with such a vigorous opponent, Mo Fan needed to step in and finish them off.
Of course, the monkey also demonstrated some of its experience within the Wei forces, such as circling them out.
Mu Nujiao did indeed learn some experience from the monkey. Although she couldn't say too much, the impact of the battle gave her an experience she had never had in the academy.
There was no danger along the way, and we gradually arrived at the area where the Sand River was located.
The Shawang River is a plateau stream that has been dry for countless years. After years of wind erosion, the entire river channel has become incredibly wide. Even on a map, the Shawang River looks like a long, earth-colored dragon lying on the land of Dunhuang. Its length is almost half of Gansu City, and its narrowest point is probably more than ten kilometers long!
This long, sandy river is teeming with a terrifying creature: the White Sand Demon Soldiers. Standing on the undulating Gobi Desert, one can see a barren land sinking into the depths.
Although it's called a river, it actually looks more like a sea, slowly sinking down the continental shelf. It's filled with fine white silt of varying thickness, rising and falling, making it look like a undulating white ocean from a distance.
"Isn't it said that White Sand Demon Soldiers can be seen everywhere here? Why haven't I seen a single one?" Zhang Xiaohou said, shielding his eyes from the sunlight as he gazed into the distance.
"They're hidden under the sand," Mo Fan said, casually tossing a stone over.
The moment the stone fell into the sandy river, waves of mud and sand suddenly erupted from the calm white sand.
Amidst the sandstorm, one by one, three-meter-tall semi-giant creatures wielding sand-transformed longswords stood up. They neatly surrounded the nearby fallen rocks, observing them warily for a moment before quickly transforming into fine grains of white sand that scattered into the Sand River.
The whole process took only a few seconds. From a calm white sandy land to the sudden emergence of forty or fifty white longsword giants, and then back to the previous calm, Zhang Xiaohou and Mu Nujiao were dumbfounded!
"Isn't this a bit too exaggerated???" Although Zhang Xiaohou was a mage, he had never encountered such a scene before.
"They are earth elemental creatures, but also resemble a kind of undead creature. Countless lives have been buried in this sandy river, which is why countless White Sand Demon Soldiers have been born," Mo Fan said.
They can be compared to the Terracotta Army.
It should also be the work of the ancient king.
"Let's camp here by the river tonight. It's getting dark, so we can set off again when it's light tomorrow," Lingling said.
When it comes to setting up camp efficiently, no one can compare to Zhang Xiaohou. So, after Lingling finished speaking, he began to set up camp.
"Can we make it through?" Mu Nujiao asked with some worry.
"If we're talking about fighting our way through, even I would struggle, because there are more than just White Sand Demon Soldiers in this Sand River. It's said that there's a Sand Bone Dragon, which should be a commander-level creature, or possibly close to the monarch level," Mo Fan said.
(This is a product that has never appeared before, so I don't know how other fanfictions have set it up, and I won't set it up here for now.)
Mu Nujiao blinked her big eyes and looked at Mo Fan, as if she wanted to ask him, "Then how do we get there?"
"We can just walk over there. We're just using the road and we're not doing anything, so it's no problem," Mo Fan said with a smile.
"Borrowing a passage??"
Mu Nujiao felt as if she had been tricked!
Even a single stone can provoke the ire of these White Sand Demon Soldiers, so why are you asking to pass through?
Are their knives not sharp enough?
"I'm a mind-based mage, it's just a matter of borrowing a passage, no problem at all," Mo Fan explained.
"When did you acquire a mind-based ability?!" Mu Nujiao was stunned upon hearing this!
