More than ten days have passed since Yuan Wen handed Green Lotus Core Flame's map to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Fan packed up the things in the room and gave instructions to Han Jue. From now on, Desert City will be under his jurisdiction and he will make full use of his power. Han Jue's loyalty to Xiao Fan is now unquestionable, and Xiao Fan is very relieved.
After unifying Desert City, Mercenary Group's resources have also increased visibly. After Han Jue takes Swallowing Hundred Herbs, his future cultivation will improve very quickly, and he can basically solve the problems encountered.
Today, Xiao Fan has to continue his journey. After all, staying in Desert City was a helpless move at the time. Unifying Desert City is also considered a casual move.
Under the scorching sun, in the arid desert, a man wearing Black Robe, shirtless, was walking in the desert.
If anyone saw him, they would probably be shocked. The desert is already hot, and there are attacks from monsters hidden in the sand from time to time. If you dare to wander like this in the huge Tagor Desert by yourself, you will probably fall into a coma due to lack of water soon. In the inaccessible desert, coma means death.
This person is none other than Xiao Fan. After leaving Desert City, Xiao Fan has been practicing in the desert, heading towards the map, planning his own route along the distance between several oases, and heading towards the territory of the Snake-People Tribe.
Shadowless Mask is still worn on Xiao Fan's face, but because of its specialness, Xiao Fan's face is still transformed into the appearance of Mo Shang.
The naked upper body was covered with large beads of sweat slowly flowing down Xiao Fan's collarbone, chest and abdomen, and under the baking sun, leaving traces of sweat mixed with wind and sand.
Xiao Fan's originally fair skin has gradually become like bronze due to recent practice, becoming less fragile and more resolute and masculine.
Xiao Fan exhaled slightly, feeling the pain that had gradually disappeared from his body, and took out a jade vial from Storage Ring again.
He evenly applied the red liquid in the bottle to his naked upper body. Although he was prepared, the burning pain still made Xiao Fan grit his teeth.
This is the Medicinal Liquid that Yao Lao prepared for Xiao Yan to practice in the desert. With Yao Lao's soul memory, Xiao Fan also easily refined it for his own practice while walking in the desert.
Where Medicinal Liquid is applied, Xiao Fan can clearly feel that both Fire Attribute's perception and absorption are faster. Dou Qi in the body is running slowly, and the energy of the whole body is also penetrated into the body along with the pores all over Xiao Fan's body. Xiao Fan's strength is also increasing slightly.
Because of the existence of the system, although Xiao Fan's strength can be increased by relying on system tasks, Xiao Fan still has not given up on his own practice.
I feel that the process of cultivation not only increases the strength of the body, but also the sublimation of the soul. Xiao Fan feels that the process of cultivation is like beating with the same name knife. Without personal training, even if it is given to yourself Dou Sheng In terms of cultivation, Dou Sheng cannot take advantage of it. On the other hand, Xiao Fan also enjoys the process of cultivation. After all, Xiao Fan does not have Yao Lao to accompany him, and there is no one to talk to to relieve his boredom. There is no practice that can give Xiao Fan a hint of vent in his lonely heart.
In this way, over and over again, Xiao Fan is still practicing in the desert. Soon, the Medicinal Liquid in Jade Bottle has bottomed out. He closed his eyes, Xiao Fan felt the Dou Qi in his body, and opened the system to view his own panel.
Five-Star Dou Master(5731000)
Thanks to the rewards for completing the previous tasks, Xiao Fan's cultivation level reached Five-Star Dou Master. Since it was already 420 before, after completing the task of unifying Desert City, Dou Qi increased by 100, reaching Dou Qi Points of 520.
During the period of entering the desert, in order to increase his cultivation level, Xiao Fan found Medicinal Liquid from the soul memory of Yao Lao, who assisted in cultivation. After this period of cultivation, he also reached a value of 573.
As long as the mission of Green Lotus Core Flame is completed, the system will reward 300 Dou Qi Points again, which means that Xiao Fan can advance across three levels in the Dou Shi stage.
Therefore, Xiao Fan wants to reach Six-Star Dou Shi during this period. By then, once the system tasks are completed, he will be able to reach the level of nine-star Dou Shi. Moreover, by absorbing the origin of Green Lotus Core Flame and his own strength, he may be able to reach the level of Da Dou Shi.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan's heart felt hot, and his determination to practice became even stronger.
After all, the ten-year period given by the system has now passed for two and a half years, making Xiao Fan feel more and more that it is really impossible to achieve the ten-year goal through slow cultivation.
Therefore, he can only seize every opportunity, improve his strength as much as possible, and then rely on his own strength to pull Xiao Yan up. Only in this way can he escape the system's obliteration. Another thing is the abnormality of the previous system. Xiao Fan has never understood what is going on. It is like a shadow, hanging in Xiao Fan's heart.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan couldn't help but laugh at himself, "Other time travelers are all protagonist templates, mine is just a supporting role, there seems to be something wrong with the system, ugh~"
A sigh brings all the joys and sorrows.
Shaking his head, Xiao Fan temporarily expelled all these thoughts from his mind. He should seize the time to practice and rush to the Snake-People Tribe to find Green Lotus Core Flame.
From Storage Ring, he took out Tagor Desert's map. Xiao Fan identified his location and walked towards the nearest oasis.
In the desert, water is an indispensable part. These days, the food prepared by Xiao Fan is enough. Only water is replenished in another oases in the desert.
When it was getting dark, Xiao Fan saw the oasis from a distance, and couldn't help but feel a little at ease in his heart.
After all, in the vast desert, there is yellow sand and dead silence everywhere, and the lush oasis is the best place for Mercenary people in the desert to live.
There is also an unwritten rule in the desert, that is, there will be no fighting or fighting near the oasis. After all, the oasis is the place where life is guaranteed in the desert, and no one wants the peace here to be broken.
Xiao Fan feels that this point is very common no matter which world it is in. Just like the animals in the previous life, during the season when the water source dries up, animals near the water source will basically not engage in predatory behavior, because this will cause siege by all animals.
Slowly approaching the oasis, Xiao Fan frowned slightly and sniffed the air.
"The smell of blood..."
Xiao Fan walked towards the oasis. There should be countless animals that depend on it for survival, but Xiao Fan didn't find a trace of life.
As soon as he stepped into the oasis, Xiao Fan felt the coldness that still lingered here.
Walking towards the middle of the oasis again, Xiao Fan soon arrived at the center of the oasis.
Lake usually drinks water from many creatures. At this time, on the beach around Lake, what caught his eye were the remaining tents and some corpses. Xiao Fan frowned and checked the surroundings, but did not find any traps. Among the many corpses, Xiao Fan also found out the cause of their death.
Drugs, many Mercenary, were caused by drugs, which caused great damage to their combat power, so they were killed without any worries.
After surveying the battlefield, Xiao Fan found that there were probably two groups of people fighting. One of the groups was supposed to have drugged the water. After Mercenary from the other group drank the drugged water, they launched a surprise attack, but they probably didn't kill them all, so they chased them all the way and left the place temporarily.
Xiao Fan discovered that there was another Mercenary. Although he was stabbed in the abdomen, he was still fine and avoided the vital points. He just lost too much blood and fell into a coma. However, if he did not receive treatment, he might also die.
"You're lucky." Xiao Fan muttered.
I walked to the river to get some water, and Xiao Fan made a little distinction. "There are basically no other problems."
Returning to the man, Xiao Fan took out the bandages and hemostatic medicine from his Storage Ring, cleaned his wound, sprinkled the wound medicine on him, and then bandaged him.
After finishing, Xiao Fan dragged the person to the nearby bushes and rested with his back against the big tree.
It didn't take long for the man to wake up gradually, and he was still shouting something, but Xiao Fan couldn't hear it clearly.
The man soon woke up, and just as he was about to get up, he felt a severe tearing pain in his abdomen.
Xiao Fan glanced at the man lightly and said, "Don't move, I just gave you medicine."
Hearing the voice of Xiao Fan, the man turned to look at him, showed his white teeth, and said with a grin, "This is Liu Yun from Chasing Wind Mercenary Group. Thank you young hero for saving my life. I don't know what to call him."
"Mo Shang." Xiao Fan said lightly.
"Thank you so much, Brother Mo. Unfortunately, I don't have anything right now that I can use to thank you." The man said and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Xiao Fan looked at him and asked curiously, "There is no sworn hatred around the oasis, and basically there will be no fights. How come you guys broke out in a fight here and drugged Lake."
You must know that the oasis is a fixed source of life in the desert. If you dare to drug the oasis, once word spreads, I am afraid that all the towns around Tagor Desert will ban this organization. After all, most of the caravans operating in Tagor Desert are hired from nearby Mercenary. If you lose the water source in the desert, you are not far from death.
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the man pounded the ground beside him with both hands and said bitterly, "They are bandits in the desert. They have taken a fancy to our goods. We did not expect that they dared to poison the oasis. That's why we were plotted. We don't know if the leader and others escaped."
There is also a profession in the desert, just like bandits in the mountains and pirates at sea. They specialize in guarding the places where caravans must pass through in the desert, and rob some small caravans. However, they generally do not poison the oases. After all, they live in the desert and cherish the oases even more.
Xiao Fan shook his head and said nothing. He had been drugged in the oasis and had made such a decision. The chance of escape was basically zero.
While the two were talking, outside the oasis, Xiao Fan vaguely heard the ringtone again.
