Chapter 116: Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Adventure in the Desert
The sky of the Fantasy World Continent was shrouded in a thick, inky haze, as if the heavens had turned a huge black pot upside down on this land, suffocating the entire world. The strong winds were like a group of mad demons, roaring recklessly, rolling up the dust in the sky, forming huge sandstorm dragons that covered the sky and the sun, and raging wildly in this desert.
Lin Xiao stood alone in the desolate desert, her clothes rustling in the strong wind, as if they would be torn into pieces at any time. Her hair had long been a mess, and her face was covered with sand and dust, but it still couldn't hide her firm and stubborn eyes.
"This shabby place is simply hell! Why am I so unlucky to end up here!" Lin Xiao gasped and muttered to himself.
At this moment, her lips were as dry and cracked as the land after a long drought, and the bloody cuts made people feel distressed. Her cheeks were scratched by the wind and sand, as if countless knives were constantly scratching them.
She raised her feet with difficulty, and every step she took felt like she was sinking into a bottomless quagmire, so heavy that it made her despair.
"When will this end?" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, his voice seemed so insignificant in the strong wind.
Suddenly, a low and terrifying roar came from the distance. The sound seemed to come from the depths of hell, echoing in the empty desert, making people feel creepy.
Lin Xiao's heart suddenly tightened, "Oh my god, what the hell is this?"
Her heartbeat accelerated instantly, and her hands unconsciously clenched the sword in her hands, her palms full of sweat.
A huge sand beast slowly emerged from the dust. It was as big as a moving hill, and its scales flashed strangely in the dim light, like sharp blades, which made people shudder.
Lin Xiao took a breath and his eyes widened. "Oh my God, this guy is too scary!"
The sand beast opened its bloody mouth, a foul smell came towards Lin Xiao, and it pounced towards him.
Lin Xiao reacted quickly, leaning sideways and narrowly avoiding the fierce attack.
"Hmph, it's not that easy to hurt me!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, her voice full of anger and unwillingness.
She swung her sword and slashed at the sand beast's legs. However, the sand beast's skin was as hard as iron, and the sword only splashed a few pitiful sparks, unable to cause any damage at all.
The sand beast was completely enraged. It opened its mouth again and pounced towards Lin Xiao. Its huge claws brought up a gust of wind, and the sand was blown all over the sky.
Lin Xiao rolled over and tumbled several times on the ground before he barely dodged it.
"This is not a solution. I have to think of a way!" Lin Xiao was extremely anxious, and sweat kept dripping down his forehead.
At this moment, she suddenly discovered that the sand beast's eyes seemed to be its weakness.
"Now!" Lin Xiao took a deep breath, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
She mustered up her courage and rushed towards the sand beast's eyes like an arrow.
The sand beast sensed Lin Xiao's intention and desperately twisted its huge body to try to stop her.
But Lin Xiao was agile and nimble, dodging left and right and approaching the sand beast's eyes in an instant.
She raised her sword high and stabbed it with all her strength.
"Ah!" The sand beast let out a shrill scream, and the entire desert trembled.
It fell to the ground, rolling over and over, raising a large cloud of dust.
Lin Xiao was so tired that he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, "Finally got rid of this guy."
There was a relieved smile on her face, but it revealed endless fatigue.
But before she could recover, a strange light suddenly appeared in the sky. The light was as colorful as a rainbow, but it also had a mysterious and irresistible power.
In the light, a mysterious figure is looming, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Who? Who is there?" Lin Xiao stood up vigilantly, holding his sword tightly in both hands, his body trembling slightly.
The mysterious figure slowly descended and appeared in front of Lin Xiao.
This is a mysterious man in a black robe, with a silver mask on his face, so his face cannot be seen clearly. But the aura emanating from him makes people feel an invisible pressure.
"Little girl, you are very brave." The mysterious man's voice was low and magnetic, as if it carried a kind of magic that made people want to listen.
Lin Xiao frowned, his eyes full of confusion and vigilance, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The mysterious man smiled slightly, and that smile looked particularly mysterious under the mask. "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that your destiny is about to change."
Lin Xiao's eyes widened. "What do you mean? My destiny? What nonsense are you talking about!"
The mysterious man stretched out his hand, and a gem emitting mysterious light appeared in his hand. The gem shone brightly, as if it contained endless power.
"This is a treasure that can help you, but it will also bring you great danger. Do you dare to accept it?" The mysterious man stared at Lin Xiao with burning eyes, as if testing her.
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, his eyes fixed on the gem, his heart full of confusion.
"What on earth is this? Is it a trap?" Lin Xiao thought to himself.
But looking at the mysterious man's determined eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "Why are you afraid?"
The mysterious man handed the gem to Lin Xiao and said, "Remember, all the choices are in your hands."
After saying this, the mysterious man turned into a ray of light and disappeared.
Lin Xiao held the gem and felt a strong and unfamiliar force surging in her body. This force made her feel excited and scared.
"What kind of power is this? Can I control it?" Lin Xiao's mind was full of questions.
At this moment, there was another noisy sound coming from the distance, as if a large group of people were rushing towards this side.
"It won't be another trouble!" Lin Xiao frowned, his heart full of worry.
She gripped her sword tightly, ready to face new challenges.
Who are these people? What is their purpose? Can Lin Xiao cope with the next crisis? Everything is unknown...
