C827 Sea of sands
Over a hundred people were arranged on this huge ship, but no one knew what they were about to do.
Fortunately, the conditions on top of the ship were much better than the ones Wu Tian had helped them with. Everyone was arranged to live under the bed of the ship.
The bottom of the boat was separated into over a hundred rooms of different sizes. Every two or five people would be living in one room. The room was fully equipped, and the cleaning and furnishing were quite clean. Many people were surprised to find that they were living inside it. It was obvious that no one knew what these people had spent so much energy to lure them onto the large ship.
Qin Shaojie and Chen Yuner were allocated a room that could fit two people. However, the strength of their divine intents had long covered the entire boat.
There were about dozens of warriors on this ship, and they were not very strong. The weakest was at the Spirit Sea Realm, and most of them were at the Earth Origin Stage. There were also a few experts at the peak of the dead Profound Realm who were at the helm.
The boat seemed to be heading towards a certain destination. It was constantly moving and did not stop midway.
According to what the middle-aged man from before said, this should be the sand sea or river cave that Qin Shaojie was looking for.
In the vast ocean, other than the sun rising and setting in the east, there were almost no other directions to go in. Bai Tao Sect's entire ship continued to move forward day and night, without the slightest hint of deviating direction.
Thankfully, although it was below the deck of the boat, the three meals a day were provided by special personnel. Moreover, it appeared to be quite fresh and nutritious. Many people had already let their guard down and thought that this was heaven, but Qin Shaojie and Chen Yuner did not have this kind of thought at all.
There was no such thing as a free lunch. The other party probably had some ulterior motives for doing this.
In Qin Shaojie's eyes, this so-called goal was nothing more than entering the sea of sand.
After about a month of traveling in the Endless Sea, the huge ship finally came to a stop.
Through the gaps in the deck, Qin Shaojie realized that they were at the very end of his line of sight. Sure enough, after a short while, several small boats were seen flying towards the ship. The speed of the small boat was quite fast, it was not even the slightest bit inferior to the speed of the big ship in the Endless Sea.
Such a commotion had attracted the attention of everyone else on the bottom of the boat.
When the boat docked, they finally saw a lot of people walk up from the boat, but these people could clearly see that there were two groups. One of them was a disciple of the Bai Tao Sect, and the other one was dressed in ragged clothes. Only after carefully sensing their surroundings did he realize that their life forces were about to be completely used up.
These people were all holding a bag in their hands. The bag seemed to be filled with a lot of good things, because these things were currently being counted and searched by the people from the Bai Tao Sect.
Those who were still alive were arranged in other rooms on the deck.
At this moment, everyone finally understood why there were so many leftovers from the previous room. It was all prepared for this group of people.
Qin Shaojie happened to be in an empty room, so he dragged the two middle-aged men in.
However, one of them trembled the moment he entered the room, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying. His body trembled, and white foam kept spitting out from the corner of his mouth.
His body trembled for the space of only several dozen breaths. Then, with a roar, he died.
Seeing that, the disciples of the Bai Tao Sect also shook their heads, and then directly threw him into the ocean.
At the same time, many others also appeared. They were all ruthlessly thrown into the sea, and thus, they took advantage of the sea monsters.
At this moment, even a fool would know that their following situation would be similar to these people. They attempted to escape and frantically retreated, but their legs were trembling as they stood on the side of the ship, not daring to jump into the sea.
They were both from the Wan Jin Guo and were very good at swimming. Even if they could float in the ocean for three to five days, they could still survive. These sea monsters ate up all sorts of rotten meat and lives. Once they fell in, they would directly become their food.
Qin Shaojie had seen this from a long time ago, so he did not have any impulses.
Bai Tao Sect had spent so much energy and thought, if these people managed to escape, then it would be too unworthy of their plans.
Finally, the restless crowd forcefully suppressed the fear in their hearts and entered their own barrier. They knew that if they cooperated well, they would be able to live for at least a period of time.
Can you tell me what happened inside? Because the next batch should be us entering.
Qin Shaojie lied in his own room, and used the gap to talk to the person in the room beside him. Although he was not in a good condition, he had at least returned alive.
Qin Shaojie didn't know what exactly they had experienced, but it was exactly as he said, he would definitely experience it.
That place was the Jiangjin Cave, also known as the Sand Sea. Looks like you guys are unlucky people to have been brought here.
Coughing, the man seemed to have a feeling that he had survived a disaster. It seemed that it had been a long time since he last spoke to someone, so he did not hide anything from Qin Shaojie's question.
And his first sentence caused both Qin Shaojie and Chen Yuner to reveal traces of excitement.
Was that a sea or a river cave? This was the true destination they were looking for!
Back then, Ding Nuo had said that he was inside the cave, and as long as he entered, Qin Shaojie would have a very strong confidence in being able to find him!
The man didn't seem to care about Qin Shaojie and Yue Yang's reactions as he continued speaking.
He had originally been tempted and thought that he would be able to reach the peak of his life in the future. However, he did not know that this was the land of demons!
Life and death had nothing to do with Bai Tao Sect. In this kind of situation, they were powerless and could only follow what Bai Tao Sect said, otherwise, they would have died even faster.
The real purpose of the Bai Tao Sect was to get into the sea of sand and pick all kinds of herbs. The levels and ages of these herbs were quite good. After all, almost none of them had been developed in the entire sea of sand, so it was likely that there would be gains if one were able to enter.
However, this sea of sand was filled with an extremely strange scene. Anyone who entered it would have their mind slowly swallowed. Even their life force was continuously disappearing. If it were any ordinary person, then the speed of a martial artist inside would be much faster.
No one could survive past a month inside it. Most people would die within three days.
If they were in the sea of sand, their eyes would become bloodshot as if they had been possessed by the devil and they would begin to slaughter everything around them in a crazy manner. There were even some people who would directly kill themselves as if they were offering themselves as sacrifices.
Even if they survived, if they wanted to return to the ship, they would have to trade for the treasures they got from the sea of sand.
If they obtained enough treasures, they would be able to rest on the ship for half a year or even longer. If they were able to obtain enough treasures, then these people would be ruthlessly abandoned in this sea of sand, leaving their lives to fend for themselves.
Hearing this, Qin Shaojie and Chen Yuner's hearts trembled, they never thought that Bai Tao Sect, one of the three great sects, would actually do something so incomparable to this.
However, there was nothing they could do now that they were caught here. They could only allow themselves to be slaughtered!
This is already the second time that I've entered this place. However, this time, luck is better than price. I've obtained some good treasures. Perhaps, I'll be able to recuperate on the ship for half a year.
Coughing, a sliver of hope appeared on the man's face.
Half a year was already quite a luxury for them. This was because most people would never be able to return once they entered the sea of sand.
They only needed to do two things in the sea of sand: survive and find enough treasures. Only in this way would he be able to leave the sea of sand.
Back then, the people from the Bai Tao Sect had said that as long as every person entered three times, they would be let off. Now that he had already entered twice, he could only hope that the next time, his luck would be good and that he would leave this place as soon as possible.
If he could, he would rather die than enter this place.
With just that, Qin Shaojie sighed in his heart. The outside world never knew what exactly happened inside, which meant that no one sent out any messages, and even if it was the third time, there was probably no chance of it happening. The final result of Bai Tao Sect would definitely be killing all of these people.
Of course, Qin Shaojie did not give their names, because this was their last hope of survival.
As for the result of his roommates just now, he didn't care at all because he had seen an even more terrifying situation. All of this was already numbed.
When you enter, if you want to survive, you must remember not to go any deeper.
Also, do not trust anyone, especially when you have medicinal herbs, because there is no one there who is worthy of your trust.
After saying this, the man finally couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
He had barely slept well in the sea of sand, but it was rare for him to be able to relax on the deck. No matter what, life on the deck was pretty good.
Half a year of time was more than enough for a man to recuperate.2
But only Qin Shaojie knew that the man did not have much life force left in him. Based on the current situation, it was almost impossible to survive the third time.
Of course, Qin Shaojie had a way to save him, but it was not necessary at the moment. Once his vitality recovered, perhaps the people from Bai Tao Sect would force him to head into the sea of sand.
Should we just destroy the people on this ship? In any case, the sea of sand was ahead of them.
During this period of time, Chen Yuner had already hated and despised the methods of the Bai Tao Sect.
But Qin Shaojie shook his head.
Life and death had always depended on fate since ancient times. Some of these people had appeared here because they had been forcibly robbed, while others were because they were greedy.
However, in the end, they were not Bodhisattvas who saved a life. Furthermore, there were some things that, once done, would immediately attract the attention of the Bai Tao Sect.
The disciples of the Bai Tao Sect on the ship weren't much of a threat, but that didn't mean that the real Bai Tao Sect didn't have any tricks up her sleeve.
At that time, Ding Nuo and their whereabouts would be discovered.
Wait, I think maybe tomorrow. These people can't help but urge us to go into the sea of sand.
However, I am quite curious. Just what kind of existence is this sea, to actually make people feel that it is so terrifying?!
