A Million Possible

Chapter 444 Oasis

“boom!”

The violent sand rose, the violent Spiritual Qi spread, and a monster’s corpse fell into the sand dunes.

Only half of his body was exposed.

The blue blood sprayed from the blasted wound looked very beautiful in the orange-red sky.

“Huh.” Cheng Lin exhaled deeply, and slowly dropped the He sword in his hand.

After checking the consumption of the sword just now, he had already drained the Spiritual Qi reserve in his body by more than one-third.

The consumption of Hejian Sword Qi is as great as ever, but the effect is quite good.

Stabbing the pitch-black iron sword into the sand, Cheng Lin slid the hilt to wipe his sweat, and then looked at the dead fifth rank monster with relief.

Yes, the fifth rank.

It was originally to “fishing for beasts” in accordance with the usual practice, but I did not expect to provoke a big guy.

Fortunately, Cheng Lin has enough cards, but it is not a big problem.

It’s just that when the situation is not good, this thing will turn around and escape.

“Now the main material is available.”

Cheng Lin wiped off his sweat and thought happily.

One of the main materials required for the gathering ceremony is the body of the fifth rank creature.

Manipulate the combined battle spirit to put away the sickle.

To absorb the energy of the opponent’s soul and restore the loss, Cheng Lin dug out the crystal core and moved the corpse into the spirit world. This was completely relieved.

The off-road vehicle parked aside.

Cheng Lin washed his hands with water, then leaned against the front of the car exhaustedly and squinted his eyes to look forward.

At this moment, it’s evening.

The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun sets in the long river.

Gu Yan didn’t see it, but the rest of the scenery was complete.

In the endless desert, the meandering river is much wider here, and you can still hear the sound of running water when you calm down and listen carefully.

In the empty field of vision, a huge red sun hangs on the horizon, releasing the last heat, rendering the whole world a dim yellow color.

If they were far enough apart, the car and Cheng Lin would become dark silhouettes.

With the setting sun in the upper desert, it must be a good view.

However, Cheng Lin’s mood at the moment is not beautiful, even a little worried.

“I have only got twenty fourth rank magic cores in total… and one fifth rank… and seeing the projection is half gone, I am afraid that the goal will not be achieved if this continues… although this goal is a bit too big. .”

Leaning against the car.

Cheng Lin was carrying a pocket in his hand. At this moment, he was carefully counting the number of crystal nuclei in it, and then he wrung his brows into the word “Chuan”.

After bidding farewell to the Wusi small lapel, he was also considered diligent along the way.

Apart from the normal exploration mark, it is to attract the fourth rank to hunt, but until now, the results have made him very dissatisfied.

No, it should be unusually unsatisfactory!

Twenty… the distance of three hundred is too far away.

Of course, thinking about it can also be understood.

After all, he is only one person, considering that the large troops behind him still dare not stay in one place for too long.

Even if it is attracted by flesh and blood, there is a high probability that some creatures below the third rank will be attracted. After all, the fourth rank is not everywhere in this desert.

However, until now, Cheng Lin has also discovered that the biological strength level in this projection is not high.

Seeing that I was about to come to the core area, the strongest monster I encountered was only the fifth rank… Maybe there was a higher one, but maybe I didn’t meet it.

“too slow.”

After putting the 21 magic cores away, Cheng Lin gradually began to recognize reality.

It seems unlikely that the materials will be collected in this exploration.

Before, he was thinking about going to the projection No. 1 next door. You can refer to No. 2. Cheng Lin felt that it was unnecessary for him to go.

In addition, the projection has not existed for a long time, and putting too much time on the road may not be worth the gain.

Lifting his head, he squinted his eyes and put his spirit on the black shadow in front of him.

Yes, compared to the map, the black shadow standing on the horizon in front of him is the central area of ​​the projection.

Because of facing the sun, Cheng Lin couldn’t see clearly, but vaguely felt that there seemed to be many trees there.

This made him extremely curious.

After the rest, I drank the medicine to fill up the Spiritual Qi in my body.

Cheng Lin got in the car again, stepped on the accelerator, and galloped toward the center area against the round sunset.

…

The speed of the car in the desert is still very fast.

Not long after, when the setting sun finally began to slowly drop to the horizon, Cheng Lin also came outside the central area.

Then he was taken aback.

oasis.

What appeared in front of him turned out to be a large oasis!

The verdant plants, vegetation, and rivers gather together to form this oasis that is thousands of meters long.

“squeak–”

The four tires rubbed violently against the ground. Cheng Lin stopped the car, then slammed the door and walked out, staring at the green fertile soil in front of him in surprise.

Perhaps because of the evening, or perhaps because of the climate here, the heat in the air has been significantly reduced.

Cheng Lin could even feel the oncoming cool breeze and the moisture in the air.

“This is the source of the river?”

Cheng Lin thought to himself, instead of rushing in, he turned on his perception ability and condensed Mental Energy into a bunch to explore the past.

Immediately, the scene inside came to mind.

The shimmering river in the setting sun, the verdant grass, the tall exotic trees, the leaves are full and fresh.

Some trees are still bearing fruit, and there are faint worms in the grass, but they can’t feel the existence of high-grade monsters, and they don’t even have a dangerous atmosphere.

The vast oasis is peaceful.

However, as his vision continued to extend, Cheng Lin finally discovered the anomaly.

There were many monster bones and rotten flesh and blood remaining in the grass.

Some were old, some were fresh, and he even saw a few that were obviously just dead recently.

He looks peacefully lying in the grass, on the ground, by the river.

With eyes closed, there is no breath.

There are various types and grades, scattered scattered.

The only amazing thing is that no matter what kind of monster it is, their heads are facing the center of the oasis!

All the corpses are facing the center, as if someone deliberately placed them!

Another special feature.

It’s just that almost no wounds can be seen on the bodies of these monsters, and they all look very old, and they feel like…

“They weren’t killed, but they were old enough to run over by themselves, lying here to die of old age!”

Cheng Lin suddenly opened his eyes, surprised.

This scene was quite strange, making him a little confused.

“If this is the case, then why do they do it? It’s like a ritual… and there are so many corpses here, but they haven’t been eaten by the monsters outside, it’s like… this is the entire desert. The public cemetery is generally… living monsters will not come to intrude.”

Cheng Lin thought for a moment without thinking, but another discovery made his heart pound.

In the skeletons of white bones in the grass, there are many magic cores scattered around!

This was obviously left over from the decay of the dead monster.

Based on his rough observation just now, there are probably thousands of magic nuclei deposited in this oasis!

This means that this “public cemetery” has existed for a long time…

“No magic core was found in the bones of monsters encountered in the desert before, indicating that the magic core is likely to be digested, eaten by other monsters, or naturally dissipated… If it has been here for countless years, then Perhaps…this oasis was formed by these magic nuclei.”

Cheng Lin could clearly perceive that the concentration of Spiritual Qi here is many times thicker than outside.

This made him breathe quickly.

No matter what the reason is, he is not prepared to give up, just to guard against possible dangers.

Cheng Lin opened up the wide-area vision.

He put the “Black Banner” behind his back, left the car, and stepped into the oasis on foot.

Relying on the perception ability, he began to look for the magic core above the fourth rank.

One…two…three…

The reserves here are unexpectedly large.

“Probably only monsters above the fourth rank can survive to old age. Most of the low-level monsters are preyed before they die of old age.” Cheng Lin thought.

At first he was very cautious, but after picking up dozens of them, he confirmed that there was really no danger here.

Gradually, he went deeper and deeper.

Soon, he came to the center of this oasis.

This is actually a shallow lake.

Not big, you can see it at a glance.

Clear and peaceful.

It is like a piece of warm jade dotted on this land, sparkling golden light in the brilliance of the setting sun.

It is hard to imagine that this is the source of the river.

“what is that?”

When Cheng Lin came to the shore and looked at this small lake, his eyes suddenly widened.

I saw a collapsed stone gate in the middle of the lake.

The stone gate seems to have existed for countless years, mottled vicissitudes, ancient and mysterious, like a beach of rubbish, piled there, soaked in lake water.

But it can still be seen that it should have been an extremely huge portal.

“Space door!”

Cheng Lin’s heart moved, and he recognized its origin.

This is surprisingly the entrance for another world monster to enter during the deduction. After Shi Shengcun exploded, it finally broke through the critical line and became the gate of real matter!

“It still exists?”

Cheng Lin remembered that when he released countless meteorites and ignited the Bohai Sea, the door had collapsed and sank under the sea.

But I didn’t expect it to still exist after countless years!

At this moment, he suddenly figured out some things, such as why these monsters turned their heads to the center like a ritual, and died of old age quietly.

“They are species that have absorbed the blood and genes of another world monster and evolved into it. To a certain extent, they are the offspring of those other world monsters, perhaps the information engraved in their genes, which makes them yearn for their hometown, and this Although the door collapsed, it still retains the breath of another world, so under the effect of this instinct, this oasis cemetery was formed.”

This is a bold conjecture without evidence.

Cheng Lin didn’t know whether his guess was correct or not, but this was the only explanation he could give.

And just when he stared at this “remains” in a daze.

West horizon.

The sun finally sank to the horizon.

The light and heat are gone.

On the sky, the last afterglow finally disappeared.

Cheng Lin only felt that the sky and the earth were dark, and the night was falling.

The next moment, he only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and a muffled noise that seemed to come from the horizon enveloped the earth!

A huge oasis, exudes radiant brilliance.

Everything in the world has changed drastically!
