Chapter 450
Chapter 450
After Fu Shaoping stepped into the barrier, he felt dizzy. When he steadied himself, he found himself in a vast desert.
There was scorching sand under my feet, and the heat rising up distorted the air around me, making the scenery in the distance blurry.
He was just about to circulate the spiritual power in his body to resist the scorching heat, but was shocked to find that his cultivation had been suppressed to the Yuandan realm.
Originally, when he was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, he could easily call upon powerful spiritual power, but now, that familiar power became weak and elusive. He tried to cast a simple cooling spell, which used to be completed with just a thought, but now it consumed a lot of his energy and had little effect, only forming a small, slightly cooler area around him.
Fu Shaoping took a deep breath and continued walking towards the depths of the desert.
With every step forward, the scorching heat became more intense, as if it was going to melt his entire body in the desert.
"What the hell is this place? Why is the temperature getting higher and higher?"
Fu Shaoping frowned.
He could clearly feel that his cultivation was being further suppressed under the rising temperature.
The original Yuandan realm cultivation level was now like being constantly squeezed by an invisible giant hand, gradually becoming weaker.
When he walked forward for a distance with difficulty, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body and spat out a mouthful of blood. He was horrified to find that his cultivation level had been suppressed from the Yuandan realm to the Tianyuan realm.
"how so?!"
Fu Shaoping frowned.
He tried to mobilize the little spiritual power left in his body to resist the high temperature and the suppression of his cultivation, but found that it was all in vain.
As he went deeper, the air around him seemed to be burning, and the high temperature made his vision blurred.
Suddenly, his body shook again, and his cultivation was suppressed again, this time directly dropping to the Earthly Yuan Realm.
Fu Shaoping felt helpless after his energy system was suppressed to the Earthly Yuan realm.
But he quickly calmed down.
"Try the mental power system."
Fu Shaoping secretly rejoiced in his heart, and the light of hope rekindled in his eyes, which had been somewhat dim. He concentrated his mental power. As a peak spirit talisman master, he had already reached an extremely high level of control over his mental power.
He slowly raised his hands and began to mobilize the mental power in his body.
As his spiritual power circulated, his natal spirit seal began to glow in his palm. The spirit seal emitted a faint blue glow, and the runes appeared and disappeared in the light, as if they had their own life.
Fu Shaoping was mumbling something. It was an ancient and mysterious spell, the essence of what he had been studying since he became a talisman master.
As the spell was chanted, the light of the natal talisman became stronger and stronger. Suddenly, an illusion of a green lotus slowly rose from the talisman.
As soon as the green lotus appeared, it quickly grew larger, covering Fu Shaoping's entire body.
The petals of the green lotus flickered with a faint fluorescence, and there were complex runes on each petal. These runes echoed with Fu Shaoping's mental power, forming a powerful protective barrier.
"Spiritual power is not suppressed!"
Fu Shaoping was delighted.
Looking at the green lotus shield around him, he felt a little more at ease.
He could feel that the Green Lotus Shield blocked some of the scorching heat, giving some relief to his body that was almost collapsed by the high temperature.
However, he also knew that this was only temporary relief.
He must find a way to leave this desert as soon as possible.
Fu Shaoping was relying on the green lotus to protect his body, observing his surroundings vigilantly. Suddenly, he felt a slight vibration coming from the sand under his feet, and the vibration became stronger and stronger, as if something huge was breaking out from deep underground.
His heart tightened, and he concentrated his mental power more on the natal spirit seal. The sand began to roll like boiling water, and then, densely packed soul-eating insects emerged from the ground. These soul-eating insects were like a black tide, endless at a glance.
"what is this?"
Fu Shaoping widened his eyes and a chill rose in his heart.
He could sense a greedy aura emanating from these soul-eating insects, which was a desire for spiritual power.
As soon as the soul-eating insects appeared, they rushed towards Fu Shaoping like sharks that smelled blood. Wherever they passed, the spiritual energy in the air seemed to be drained and became thin.
Fu Shaoping did not dare to neglect it. He quickly formed seals with both hands, and the light of his life spirit seal became brighter. Under his control, the Green Lotus Shield also bloomed with a stronger light, temporarily blocking the first wave of attacks from the Soul Devouring Insects.
"Humph, it's not that easy to devour my spiritual power!"
Fu Shaoping gritted his teeth and continuously injected his mental power into the talisman of his natal spirit. The runes on the talisman began to flash with dazzling light.
Suddenly, rays of spiritual light shot out from the natal spirit talisman. These rays of spiritual light were like sharp blades, cutting towards the swarm of soul-eating insects.
Wherever the spiritual light passed, the soul-eating insects were cut off one after another and turned into wisps of black smoke that dissipated in the air.
However, there were too many soul-eating insects. Once the ones in front were eliminated, the ones behind immediately swarmed up.
I saw countless soul-eating insects beginning to gather, twisting their black bodies, like black currents swirling and interweaving in the air.
Suddenly, some of the soul-eating insects quickly gathered together to form a huge black battle axe.
The axe blade flashed with a cold light, as if it could cut through everything. After the axe took shape, it roared towards Fu Shaoping's Qinglian shield with a powerful force.
"Hmph!" Fu Shaoping snorted coldly, and his hands quickly changed the seals, and the natal spirit seal flashed. The runes on the Qinglian shield circulated faster, and a faint halo appeared on the surface of the shield.
When the battle axe hit the shield, there was a deafening sound, and the surrounding sand was lifted high. Fu Shaoping's body shook slightly, but the Qinglian shield still blocked the attack steadily.
However, the soul-eating insects did not stop attacking.
More soul-eating insects began to gather, and this time they transformed into a huge black crossbow.
On the crossbow was a black arrow made of soul-eating insects, and the arrow exuded a heart-pounding aura.
With a buzzing sound that seemed to come from hell, the arrow shot towards Fu Shaoping.
As the arrow flew, the surrounding air was torn apart, forming black air currents.
Fu Shaoping frowned, he concentrated his mental power on a corner of his natal talisman, and muttered something.
A rune on the natal spirit seal suddenly lit up, and a spiritual wind blew out from the seal. The spiritual wind met the arrow, and the two were in a stalemate. The spiritual wind tried to blow away the arrow, while the arrow tried desperately to penetrate the spiritual wind. Fu Shaoping gritted his teeth and increased the output of his mental power. The spiritual wind gradually became stronger, and finally blew the arrow away into a group of soul-eating insects.
But the attacks of the soul-eating insects became more and more fierce.
Another group of soul-eating insects gathered together to form a huge black sword.
The blade of the sword was engraved with strange runes, which flashed with strange light. The sword drew a black arc in the air and stabbed towards the weak point of the Qinglian shield.
Fu Shaoping sensed the danger and quickly adjusted the power of his natal talisman.
A petal on the Green Lotus Shield suddenly broke away and turned into a spiritual shield that rushed towards the sword.
The petals collided with the sword, making a sharp metal collision sound.
The runes on the petals and the runes on the sword intertwined and confronted each other, sparks flew everywhere. Fu Shaoping took the opportunity to inject more spiritual power into the natal spirit seal, and a spiritual fire shot out from the natal spirit seal, burning towards the sword and the soul-eating insect.
The sword made of soul-eating insects began to deform under the burning of the spiritual fire, and the soul-eating insects on the sword fled one after another.
However, they soon gathered together again, this time forming a huge black bell. The bell swayed in the air, making a breathtaking sound. This sound was like a materialized wave, rushing towards Fu Shaoping.
Fu Shaoping felt a sharp pain in his head, as if countless needles were piercing his head.
He endured the pain and raised his natal talisman above his head.
The natal spirit seal released a spiritual barrier to try to block the attack of the sound. The barrier continued to tremble under the impact of the sound waves, and Fu Shaoping's mental power was also rapidly consumed.
He knew that he had to break the bell, otherwise he would be defeated by the sound sooner or later. So he poured most of his remaining mental power into his natal spirit seal, which emitted a strong spiritual light that shot towards the black bell. The bell shook violently under the impact of the spiritual light, and the soul-eating insects that made up the bell began to become chaotic.
Fu Shaoping seized this opportunity and once again controlled the Green Lotus Shield to release a powerful wave of spiritual power, sweeping towards the bell and the swarm of soul-eating insects.
Under the sweep of the spiritual power fluctuations, the black bell trembled violently, and the soul-eating insects that made up it were smashed to pieces by this powerful force. The soul-stirring sound also stopped abruptly, and the severe pain in Fu Shaoping's head was instantly relieved a lot, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the scattered soul-eating insects began to gather again, as if driven by a mysterious force, and quickly formed a huge black sphere. The surface of this sphere was shining with a dark light, as if it could devour all life in the world, giving people an extremely depressing feeling.
Fu Shaoping's heart trembled. He knew that these soul-eating insects would not give up easily. He clenched his fists and focused his mental power on the natal spirit seal again. At this time, most of his mental power had been consumed, but his eyes were still firm.
The black sphere slowly moved towards Fu Shaoping, leaving a deep mark on the sand wherever it passed. Fu Shaoping took a deep breath, knowing that it would be difficult to completely repel these soul-eating insects with his current strength:
“Perhaps the divine power is not suppressed here.”
Give it a try!
Fu Shaoping closed his eyes, muttered something, and began to perform the summoning technique. His natal spirit seal began to emit a strange light, which became brighter and brighter, gradually forming a complex rune array. As the rune array rotated, the surrounding space began to distort, and a strong underworld aura spread.
"Dragon God, give me a hand!" Fu Shaoping shouted. In an instant, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and a huge crack appeared above the clouds. A dazzling golden light shot out from the crack, accompanied by a thunderous dragon roar, and the Dragon God descended.
The Dragon God is huge, radiating golden light all over. Its scales are like hard armor and its dragon horns are extremely sharp.
As soon as it appeared, it blew a breath of dragon's breath towards the black sphere. The hot dragon's breath collided with the black sphere, making a thunderous roar. The powerful impact spread in all directions, and the surrounding sand was lifted dozens of feet high, forming a sand wave.
Under the attack of the dragon's breath, cracks began to appear in the black sphere, and the soul-eating insects fled out from the cracks. Seeing this, the Sky Dragon God swept his dragon tail, and those fleeing soul-eating insects were instantly swept away to ashes.
After solving the threat of the soul-eating insects, before Fu Shaoping had time to catch his breath, the sand under his feet suddenly shook violently.
He was startled and saw the sand in the distance began to sink, and a huge figure slowly rose from the sand.
It was a huge sand beast. Its body was made of sand and it was glowing with an earthy yellow light. Its two huge eyes were like two bright lamps, emitting a fierce light.
As soon as the sand beast appeared, it let out an earth-shaking roar towards Fu Shaoping.
There was such a powerful force in this roar that Fu Shaoping felt like his eardrums were about to break.
The Dragon God was not afraid at all. He swooped down towards the sand beast and grabbed its head with his dragon claws.
The sand beast raised its huge claws to resist the attack of the Sky Dragon God. The two collided with each other, making a sharp friction sound. The power of the sand beast was very strong. It threw the Sky Dragon God out with force. The Sky Dragon God stabilized his body in the air and rushed towards the sand beast again.
This time, the Dragon God blew out a more powerful dragon breath, which contained the power of the underworld. The sand beast wanted to dodge, but the range of the dragon breath was too large, and part of its body was hit by the dragon breath.
The sand began to melt where the dragon's breath hit, and the sand beast roared in pain.
The Dragon God took advantage of the victory and pursued the beast. It flew above the sand beast, circling its entire body, and then rushed towards the sand beast. The dragon horn directly pierced the sand beast's body. The sand beast struggled frantically, but the power of the Dragon God suppressed it tightly.
Seeing this, Fu Shaoping didn't want to miss this opportunity.
He injected the remaining mental power into his natal spiritual talisman, and a ray of spiritual power shot out from the natal spiritual talisman, shooting towards the vital parts of the sand beast.
Under the joint attack of Tianlongshen and Fu Shaoping, the sand beast finally couldn't hold on. Its body began to collapse and turned into countless sands that scattered all over the ground.
After completing his mission, the Dragon God nodded to Fu Shaoping and slowly flew back to the Underworld Temple. Fu Shaoping sat on the sand tiredly. He knew that his adventure in this mysterious and dangerous desert was still going on, but with the experience of summoning the Dragon God, he had more confidence in the next challenge.
