Chapter 311: The Fantasy World of Deadly Sand Sea: Lin Xiao's Unrivaled Breakthrough
Lin Xiao stood alone in the vast desert. The scorching sun above her head was like a huge burning fireball, mercilessly pouring its blazing light onto the earth. The rolling heat waves were like invisible waves, hitting her one after another, making the air around her seem to be burning. She raised her hand to try to block the strong sunlight that could almost blind her eyes. Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, like beads that had broken off the string, and were instantly evaporated without a trace by the high temperature.
"This damn place is simply hell mode!" Lin Xiao couldn't help cursing, her voice full of despair and anger. Her lips were as dry as the land after a long drought, and she felt pain with every word she spoke.
The howling wind swept over, and the yellow sand in the sky was instantly blown up, forming a sand wall that blocked out the sky. The sand mercilessly lashed at Lin Xiao's face, hitting her painfully. She squinted her eyes and struggled to keep her body steady in the strong wind. The already tattered clothes on her body rustled in the wind.
"How could I be so unlucky to end up like this!" Lin Xiao cursed as he took steps with difficulty. Every step felt like he was sinking into a quagmire, extremely heavy.
Suddenly, a low and terrifying roar came from afar, as if it came from an ancient giant beast. Lin Xiao's heart suddenly tightened, and a chill rushed from the soles of her feet to her forehead. She looked vigilantly in the direction of the sound, and saw a huge sand beast slowly walking out from behind the sand dune.
The sand beast was as big as a small hill, and its body was covered with a layer of scales as hard as iron. Under the sunlight, it shone with a strange light, like a demon's armor. Its eyes were like two burning flames, full of violence and desire for killing.
"Oh my God, what kind of monster is this!" Lin Xiao screamed in horror, his voice becoming sharp and piercing because of fear.
The sand beast opened its bloody mouth and blew out a stream of hot air with a disgusting stench. Then, it pounced towards Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao dodged sideways quickly, her movements as agile as a cat. She swung the sword in her hand, making a sound of breaking wind.
"Dang!" The sword collided violently with the sand beast's scales, splashing out a string of dazzling sparks.
Lin Xiao was knocked back by the huge impact and almost fell to the ground. She gritted her teeth, held the hilt tightly with both hands, and her eyes revealed determination and resoluteness.
"Come on, you beast! Let me show you how I deal with you!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, his voice full of courage and challenge.
The sand beast was enraged, and it pounced again, as fast as lightning. Lin Xiao nimbly jumped to avoid it, his body as light as a flying swallow.
"Humph, it's not that easy to catch me!" Lin Xiao said provocatively while dodging.
While dodging, Lin Xiao found the right moment and stabbed the sand beast's eyes with a sword.
"Ah!" The sand beast roared in pain, the sound was deafening.
It attacked Lin Xiao even more frantically, and its huge claws left deep marks in the sand.
Lin Xiao dodged the attack of the sand beast, her clothes were torn, revealing wounds. Blood stained her clothes red, but she still resisted tenaciously, without any intention of retreating.
"I won't fall easily!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly, with an unyielding fire burning in his eyes.
At this moment, the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. The originally hot air suddenly became cold, giving people a feeling of ice and fire.
"What's going on? God, are you kidding me?" Lin Xiao looked up at the sky with an expression of surprise and confusion on his face.
A bolt of lightning struck the sand beast straight at it, knocking it to the ground instantly.
Lin Xiao took the opportunity to take a breath, but before she could recover from the shock, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Who are you?" Lin Xiao asked vigilantly, still holding the sword tightly in his hand.
The mysterious man smiled slightly, and there was an indescribable mystery in that smile. "Don't be nervous, little girl, I'm here to help you."
Lin Xiao frowned, his eyes full of suspicion. "Help me? Why should I trust you? There are so many scammers these days!"
The mysterious man took out a jade pendant from his bosom. The jade pendant was engraved with complex patterns and emitted a faint light. "You should recognize this, right?"
When Lin Xiao saw the jade pendant, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. "This... this is a token of my family! How did you get it?"
The mysterious man nodded, his eyes full of sincerity. "Yes, I am here to find you on behalf of your family."
A glimmer of hope rose in Lin Xiao's heart, but it was soon replaced by vigilance. "Then can you take me away from here? I've had enough of this damn place!"
The mysterious man shook his head, his expression solemn. "Not now, you have a more important mission."
Lin Xiao looked confused and a little agitated. "What mission? Don't play dumb with me!"
The mysterious man pointed at the unconscious sand beast and said in a serious tone, "This sand beast is just the beginning. There are countless dangers waiting for you. Only when you complete your mission can you truly leave this world and return to your hometown."
Lin Xiao clenched the sword in his hand, his eyes determined. "No matter what it is, I'm not afraid! I must return alive!"
The mysterious man smiled, with admiration in his eyes. "Okay, then follow me."
Lin Xiao followed the mysterious man and walked towards the depths of the desert. The wind was still howling and the sand kept hitting them, but Lin Xiao's steps were firm and powerful.
