"Big brother?"

"Brother Gu!"

A strange and panicked sound came from the cow next to him. Gu Xing finally couldn't help it. With a "puff" sound, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth.

But before he could say anything, his expression changed and he suddenly pulled Sally over.

And the next moment, a grain of sand passed silently through the place where Sally was before.

Sally's scalp tingled as she watched this scene.

"Brother, what's going on?"

Sally said in horror.

Gu Xing covered his chest and looked at the seemingly beautiful and fantastic sand river in front of him, and said in a deep voice.

"There's something blocking the road ahead."

"Where?" Sally looked around but saw nothing.

"It's hidden in that sandy river."

Gu Xing coughed and said.

The grain of sand was meant for his heart, but because of his urgent twist, it deflected a little and probably hit his lungs. Now it hurt whenever he spoke.

Fortunately, the sand has no other abilities except pure speed and strength, otherwise, if it invaded Gu Xing's body, he would also be in trouble.

Now, although it can be considered a serious blow, it is not fatal.

Gu Xing threw a few pills into his mouth and waited for it to recover on its own.

However, due to damage to his lungs, he would cough from time to time.

"Brother, are you injured?" Sally heard the cough and looked at him worriedly.

"It's okay." Gu Xing uttered two words, coughed, and continued, "Stand behind me."

After saying that, he took out the broken sword from behind him and looked ahead vigilantly.

At the same time, a gleam appeared in his eyes.

This is the strange phenomenon that occurs when spiritual energy flows into the eyes when using the Xuanyi Jue.

After using the spirit stone to practice before, he still had a certain amount of spiritual energy stored in his body, which he had not used.

Until now, he has been practicing this technique regardless of the cost.

The Xuanyi Domain has a limited range, therefore, when the attack came from the Sand River, he did not notice it at all. It was only when it reached nearby that it was sensed by the Xuanyi Domain.

But by then, it was too late. Even though Gu Xing tried his best to dodge, he was still hit.

However, the Xuan Yi Jue does not have such restrictions.

It can play a role in everything you see, hear, and perceive.

This is also the reason why Gu Xing was able to respond in time when the second attack occurred.

Moreover, through the Xuanyi Jue, Gu Xing's eyes also keenly perceived the existence hidden in the sand river.

Whenever an attack occurred, Gu Xing could find unusual fluctuations somewhere in the sand river.

However, due to the distance, Gu Xing was unable to determine what was hidden inside.

Just as Gu Xing was thinking, he sensed another attack coming.

Then, he swung the broken sword in his hand, and with a clang, a grain of sand was blown away.

Ignoring the curses from Duan Jian in his ears, Gu Xing looked at the sand river in front of him. This time he made some discoveries.

Hidden in the sandy river seems to be a fish.

The fish was muddy yellow all over and looked rather ugly. It opened its mouth and spit out a grain of sand which flew towards them at an incredibly fast speed.

Now that we know what it is, there is no need to worry too much. Just destroy it.

But there was still a problem standing in front of them.

There is still a long distance from the heads of the people under their feet to the Sha River.

Gu Xing was not sure whether this distance would be the same as before, so if he wanted to go over there, he would probably need to control the power of the river throughout the entire process.

But after arriving in Shahe, where should we go?

A trace of confusion flashed through Gu Xing's mind, but he quickly became determined.

No matter what lies ahead, we should just take one step at a time. It can't be more dangerous than the huge human heads all over the ground here, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Xing summoned the river.

It did not use it for defense, but instead carried its group of people and rushed towards the turbulent Sand River.

The consumption of such manipulation is naturally terrifying.

Therefore, facing the sand that might fly from the front, Gu Xing could only rely on the Xuanyi Jue to solve it.

The consumption and operation methods of the two forces are completely different, but with Gu Xing's full concentration, they are exerted in an extremely coordinated manner without affecting each other.

And so they headed towards the Sha River.

The Shahe River has been flowing slowly, with fine sand particles sparkling with starlight, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

However, the muddy yellow fish that emerged from it from time to time gave Gu Xing a very dangerous feeling.

And, most frustratingly, there are more than one of them.

At first, only one of them attacked them, probably because it was the only one that discovered Gu Xing and the others.

When Gu Xing and his companions got closer, countless muddy yellow fish emerged from the sandy river.

Brother Gu wielded the broken sword so vigorously that it was impenetrable, and from time to time he had to rely on the power of the river to defend himself, so that he could completely block the attacks of the fish.

Fortunately, apart from spitting sand, these fish have no other means of attack.

Therefore, Gu Xing was still able to cope with it.

At this moment, Broken Sword suddenly stopped cursing and spoke in confusion instead.

"There are actually spirit fish here?"

"What spirit fish?" Gu Xing asked calmly while his hands kept moving.

"See those fish in the sandy river ahead? They are spirit fish."

"Oh, what is a spirit fish?"

"Spirit fish are creatures born from extremely pure spiritual energy."

"What is the use?"

Gu Xing stuffed a pill into his mouth, waved the broken sword, and asked.

"Spirit fish is similar to spirit stones, but it is much stronger than spirit stones. After eating it, you don't need to refine it deliberately, and you can improve your cultivation. If you use it with some special formulas, you can maximize its effect."

"Oh, do you know the recipe?"

"I don't know." Broken Sword said frankly.

"…Then we can only eat it directly?"

"Eat it, and remember to give me some."

"How do you eat?"

"Spirit fish are made of pure spiritual energy, and they don't need to be bitten with the mouth."

"..."

While Gu Xing and Duan Jian were chatting quickly, they were approaching the Sand River in the blink of an eye.

The slowly flowing sand in the river did not give Gu Xing a sense of danger.

But Gu Xing still tried it out and only stepped on it after confirming it was safe.

These grains of sand are very special. You won't sink into them when you step on them.

While blocking the attack of the spirit fish, Gu Xing reached out and pinched a pill in his hand.

Then he discovered that these grains of sand were extremely heavy. Each grain weighed probably dozens of kilograms. No wonder even though they were flowing sands, they could still be carried.

Seeing this, Gu Xing couldn't help but ask.

"What is this sand and why is it so heavy?"

"I don't know." Broken Sword said.

"forget?"

"forget."

"..."

Even if he had forgotten it, his unusual weight still allowed Gu Xing to confirm that it was a good thing.

So he took out a magic storage device and put all the surrounding quicksand into it.

And this time, he also gained an unexpected benefit.

A spirit fish was hiding not far from their feet!
