Chapter 275: Escape from the Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Game of Life and Death
Lin Xiao stood alone in the vast, desolate and silent desert. The scorching sun was like countless burning torches, mercilessly burning every inch of her exposed skin. The scorching heat seemed to evaporate all life in an instant, and the flying yellow sand was like a group of crazy demons, trying to bury her thin body completely.
Lin Xiao's brows were tightly twisted into a deep "川" shape, but the firmness and determination revealed in her eyes were like a sharp blade, flashing an unyielding light in this harsh environment. She raised her hand and wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sweat-soaked and dusty sleeves, but it was in vain, because new beads of sweat kept coming out in an instant. Her chapped lips cracked several times due to extreme lack of water, and each crack seemed to silently tell the desperate situation she was facing.
"Is this damn place really going to be my burial place? I, Lin Xiao, will never accept this!" Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and squeezed out these few words. His voice seemed so weak and helpless in the howling wind, but it was full of stubbornness and unwillingness.
Suddenly, a low and terrifying roar came from afar. The sound seemed to come from the devil in the abyss of the underworld, with endless anger and murderous intent. Lin Xiao's heart suddenly tightened, as if being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand. She subconsciously clenched the slightly mottled sword in her hand, and her knuckles turned white due to excessive force.
"No matter what it is, I won't give in easily!" Lin Xiao roared loudly to give himself courage.
A group of huge, hideous-looking sand beasts rushed out from the rolling sand like ghosts. Their bodies were as huge as small hills, their sharp fangs flashed a chilling cold light in the sun, and their eyes burned with greed and bloodthirstiness, as if they wanted to eat Lin Xiao alive.
"Come on, you beasts! I, Lin Xiao, am not afraid of you!" Lin Xiao's eyes were wide open and he rushed towards the sand beast without hesitation.
Her petite figure was like a lone boat in the sandstorm, and could be swallowed by the surging waves at any time. But her movements were agile and decisive, and the shadow of her sword flashed in the wind and sand, and she started a thrilling life-and-death struggle with the sand beast.
"Watch out for the sword!" Lin Xiao roared, and the sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning, accurately piercing the eye of a sand beast.
The sand beast let out a painful and shrill howl, blood splattered everywhere, and pounced on Lin Xiao even more frantically.
Lin Xiao dodged left and right flexibly, and each move was just right to avoid the sand beast's attack. Sweat soaked her clothes and stuck to her body, but she didn't notice it at all.
Just as she was gradually gaining the upper hand and a glimmer of hope was burning in her heart, a sharp and piercing bird cry suddenly came from the sky.
Lin Xiao subconsciously looked up and saw a group of strange black birds swooping down like a dark cloud. Their claws were as sharp as knives, flashing with cold light, as if they wanted to tear her into pieces.
"Oh no! This is really adding insult to injury!" Lin Xiao thought to himself, and his face instantly became more solemn.
At this time, the sand beasts that were originally suppressed by her also took the opportunity to launch a more fierce attack. They seemed to sense Lin Xiao's predicament and became more unscrupulous.
Lin Xiao was instantly trapped in a desperate situation with enemies attacking from all sides, but there was no trace of retreat or fear in her eyes. Instead, she was burning with an even stronger fighting spirit.
"I won't fall down like this! Even if I, Lin Xiao, die, I will take a few people with me!" Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, struggling to resist the attacks from all directions.
Suddenly, a mysterious and brilliant light flashed before her eyes. The light was like a dazzling galaxy, instantly illuminating the entire dark desert.
"What is this? Is it a savior or a new trap?" Lin Xiao's heart was full of doubts and vigilance, his eyes fixed on the light.
In the light, a mysterious figure loomed. The figure was tall and straight, exuding an irresistible and powerful aura.
"Who are you? Friend or enemy?" Lin Xiao asked loudly, with a tremor in his voice.
The mysterious figure did not answer, but slowly walked towards Lin Xiao. As he approached, Lin Xiao felt an unprecedented pressure.
"Don't play tricks! Show your true colors if you have the guts!" Lin Xiao clenched the sword in his hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
The mysterious figure finally walked in front of Lin Xiao. He was wearing a strange mask, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
"Little girl, if you want to walk out of this desert alive, follow me." The mysterious man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it carried endless vicissitudes.
Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, her heart full of contradictions. But looking at the sand beasts and strange birds approaching, she knew she had no choice.
"Okay, I'll go with you, but if you dare to play any tricks, I won't let you go!" Lin Xiao glared at the mysterious man and said.
The mysterious man smiled slightly, turned around and walked towards the depths of the desert. Lin Xiao followed closely behind him, never putting down the sword in his hand.
