49: The demonic plague is approaching!

The tornado sped closer, and Shen Li, without hesitation, maneuvered the flying boat to race away.

Wang Teng was about to speak when he couldn't help but retch, leaning over the side of the magical boat.

The Wang Family Cultivator held Wang Teng's back to prevent him from being thrown off.

Even Xiu Ya and Wang Shan gripped the edge of the magical boat tightly, their faces contorted.

They secretly decided that they would never let their Young Master pilot a flying boat again.

Qiu Ya said, “This tornado came too fast; it seems to be specifically heading for us!”

Shen Li's voice sounded ethereal in the wind, and he seemed somewhat excited as he said, “The size of this tornado isn't naturally formed at all; it must be condensed by some Essence Spirit manipulating a magical art!”

Xiu Ya said in alarm, “These Yao Beasts actually have such an ability to trigger natural disasters?”

“It's not so much triggering. How does a slow-burning fire draw Qi? The weather is dry, with no water or springs. A single spark is just the initiator. What promotes the fire is the wind, the dry earth, and wood.”

“Yellow Sand Plains has no shortage of dry earth, wood, and wind!”

“Hold on tight!”

The speed of control was very fast. The magical boat burst into full speed, Spirit Stones were rapidly drained, and the Wang Family Cultivator quickly replenished them!

Dodging left and right, Wang Teng, however, suffered greatly.

“Shen! Do you even have a magical boat driving license?”

“What's that?”

“If you keep this up, I'm going to report you to the Market! They'll fine your Spirit Stones!”

“Oh.”

After dodging and weaving for about two or three incense sticks' worth of time, they finally shook off several small tornadoes. The magical boat slowed down, and Shen Li turned his head, indeed seeing these tornadoes collide with each other.

Spiritual Qi was chaotic and repelling.

Then they vanished into nothingness.

Waves of ripples spread out, and yellow sand covered the sky!

He said, “We need to hurry back to Black Ridge City and set up defensive fortifications.”

“Is it really that urgent?”

“After all, this place is too close to Black Ridge City!”

“Alright!”

As the magical boat sped away, a yellow-robed figure appeared on the spot, gazing into the distance.

The Yao Beast beside him not only felt no tension at the appearance of this person, but even had a hint of apprehension within its Clone.

He asked indifferently, “How many market strongholds are left to be wiped out?”

“Thirteen.”

“How long will it take to wipe them out?”

“It will take at least three more months.”

“One month… don't delay my main business.”

“This matter concerns not only my Luan Xiu Alliance but also the Dao Foundation path of your 'Yellow Sand Tribe' Old Ancestor.”

“I know.”

“Recently, the border passes inside and outside Yellow Sand Plains have been unstable, so several Immortal Masters from Qingchi Mountain have already gone to the border. The Yin Nether Sect is fanning the flames within Qingchi Mountain, and some hidden agents are also exerting their influence.”

“After your Clan's Old Ancestor reaches Dao Foundation, he will also be an extremely powerful force. Wang Family Market has a Half-Step Dao Foundation. Although your Yellow Sand Tribe and Immortal Sen Yan have a private feud, do not try to use my Luan Xiu Alliance to retaliate against the Wang Family.”

“If something goes wrong, you know, there are many ways to torment your Yellow Sand Tribe.”

“You don't need to say so much nonsense. I know what's important and what's not.”

The man gave a sinister smile, and his body dispersed like yellow sand.

It seemed he had cultivated some kind of escape art, submerging into the sand, and then there was no movement!

Leaving a faint trace that subsequently vanished.

Afterward, a Yellow Sand Sand Soldier wearing yellow sand armor and at Qi Refining Stage 5 came forward, its voice sharp and already possessing sentience, saying, “What's this troublesome Luan Xiu Alliance? What's their origin?”

“A league of disgruntled losers, a bunch of good-for-nothings who were defeated by Qingchi Mountain.”

“Are they reliable?”

“Reliable, but not to be trusted too much.”

“I clearly saw the magical boat from earlier; it was the Wang Family's magical boat. There were few people on it, so it was obviously not a passenger magical boat. There must have been Wang Family Cultivators on it.”

“Are we really going to listen to this person? You know the blood feud between us and the Wang Family.”

“Back then, this Wang Family, for Immortal Sen Yan, forcibly took our Yellow Sand Tribe's spiritual essence to nourish a ninth-rank heaven and earth treasure, causing heavy casualties to our Yellow Sand Tribe.”

“We must have our revenge!”

A hint of ferocity flashed across the Sand Essence dwarf's ugly face, and then he said, “Soon, our Clan's Old Ancestor will activate a Magical Artifact to induce this year's tornado season to arrive early. With yellow sand covering the sky, let alone magical boats, even carrier pigeons won't be able to pass normally!”

“At this time, isn't it perfectly normal for one or two Wang Family Cultivators to die?”

“Naturally, we won't provoke them casually, but if they die without a burial place, who would know it was us who did it?”

“Our blood feud must be avenged!”

“I understand!”

“The mark on the magical boat, should it have been planted?”

The Yellow Sand Soldier was smug.

“Of course.”

“Even though there's someone practicing Little Vajra Technique on board, he won't be able to detect my 'Sand Guiding Art'.”

“That's right then. When the tornado comes, that will be his day of demise!”

The yellow sand receded, leaving only a huge deep pit. The scorching sun set, but there was nothing there, only silence.

A sand lizard poked out its head, moving through the hot sand as if its feet were on fire, and hid in the shade!

Later, travelers hurried by, only smelling a faint scent of blood in the air, but saw nothing.

They walked into the distance with puzzled eyes.

Leaving footprints that were gradually covered by the wind and sand.

On the magical boat, the control was smoothly handed over to the Wang Family Cultivator.

However, they continuously saw many bloodstains along the way.

The atmosphere gradually grew heavy.

Wang Teng, having recovered, said in a deep voice, “I know that group of Yao Beasts.”

Shen Li nodded, took a sip of water, and gestured for him to continue.

Wang Teng's eyes flickered, but he revealed a secret.

“The Sand Sea Plain is vast, hundreds of thousands of miles wide. Earth and Wind Elements are strong, and under the scorching heat of the Fire Element sun, 'Sand Element' beings have been born.”

“Compared to the basic Five Elements, the Sand Element is unpredictable, with exceptionally strange methods. They can transform into sand sea whirlpools, gather sand into towers, or make sand particles as hard as fine iron, all sorts of extraordinary things.”

“And among them, one tribe is the most famous, named the Yellow Sand Tribe.”

“This territory originally belonged to demons, so these beings regard Human Race Cultivators as food and are naturally at odds with us.”

“In the early years, when my Wang Family established the Market, it was frequently harassed by this Yellow Sand Tribe, to the extent that several Wang Family Immortal Seedlings perished in Yellow Sand Plains.”

“The family was extremely enraged, and an Old Ancestor who cultivated 'Metal Arts' came and literally dismembered the Dao Foundation great demon that this Yellow Sand Plains had worshipped for generations.”

“These beings are born from heaven and earth, possessing abundant Sand Element Spiritual Qi on their bodies, and they even condense into spiritual essence. Staying in place, their cultivation increases day by day, but similarly, this method can also be acquired by Cultivators!”

“So my Clan's Old Ancestor then used the Yellow Sand Tribe's Clan Chief as a medicinal primer, refining him into a ninth-rank heaven and earth treasure.”

“My Immortal Sen Yan was at Perfection at that time, still lacking a heaven and earth treasure to forge his Dao Foundation. Coincidentally, his Spiritual Root had Wood and Earth attributes.”

“So my Clan's Old Ancestor, going all out, killed nearly half of the Yellow Sand Tribe's beings and nurtured an eighth-rank treasure, which he gave to my Immortal Sen Yan to serve as his Dao Foundation.”

“This grudge… was thus formed.”

“It's just that this Yellow Sand Tribe has been hidden for many years. Why have they appeared now?”

Shen Li's mouth twitched.

As expected of the hot-tempered Wang Family.

They can play like this?

Much more ruthless than his Old Shen Family.

No wonder they raised a talent like Wang Teng...

However, the latter sentence made him shudder.

Shen Li said calmly, “The plain is quiet, but the Human Race markets have suffered, and it's likely not just one place. Even many previously unseen Yellow Sand Tribe members have appeared.”

“Perhaps a disaster is approaching.”

“Perhaps… this is what that Immortal Master Hong Tu spoke of… the Yao Beast calamity?”
