The Glorious Summoner
Chapter 617

617 The desert prison

There was only the noise of the sand in the desert. What was left for Xia Pingan and Shu Longxi was endless desolation and loneliness.

As a Summoner, it would be beneath her to travel on foot in such a place. Xia Pingan summoned the thousand-mile horse and the crane, which could be used as mounts. She wanted to use them to travel. However, although these two things could be summoned, they trembled as soon as they were summoned. The thousand-mile horse knelt on the ground and refused to leave, while the crane could not fly into the sky. It was like a silly bird.

Seeing that Xia Pingan’s summoning was not successful, Shu Longxi finally seized the opportunity to mock him, ” this is the miniature version of the God’s kingdom of the fallen God. It has absolute suppression on all Summoners that come here. If you want to summon something from the God’s kingdom, isn’t that the same as being a guest in someone else’s house and then making the host the host? naturally, you will be suppressed. Just walk away obediently.

Xia Pingan had nothing to say and could only walk obediently.

The ten black Suns were right above the silent desert. There was no light, but the desert was unusually hot. Every grain of sand was boiling hot.

Xia ping ‘an’s body was far stronger than others, but walking in such a place would make people sweat unconsciously, and their bodies would quickly become dehydrated. Their physical strength would be consumed quickly.

At this time, the advantage of a Summoner having a spatial warehouse was revealed. Xia Pingan’s spatial warehouse had a lot of water and food. Shu Longxi’s spatial equipment also had sufficient water and supplies. The two of them didn’t lack water and food and could support the consumption of their physical strength.

Although the two of them were walking normally, their speed was also very fast, similar to a normal person’s running.

After walking for less than seven or eight hours and more than 100 miles, the ten black Suns finally set. The temperature in the desert rapidly turned from hot to freezing. Every grain of sand seemed to be fluorescent, emitting a faint cold light. The entire desert had become a sea of sand that was emitting cold light. At first glance, this sea of sand was very beautiful, but one could only feel the horror of this place when one was in it.

Balls of dark green will-o’- the-wisps appeared on the desert, making people’s hearts beat faster.

Xia ping ‘an carefully threw a fireball at a ball of green will-o’- the-wisp that had appeared on a sand dune. When the green will-o’- the-wisp met a real fireball, it instantly turned into countless green sparks and scattered. However, in a short while, those green sparks gathered together again and turned back into a will-o’- the-wisp.

There was no life in this place. There was a Black Sun in the day, and it was unbearably cold at night, just like the netherworld.

we can’t use summoning spells or fly in this place, and it’ll consume the summoner’s energy quickly. I suspect that there might be a terrifying formation with the desert as the base. We don’t know how big it is, but it might be unimaginably big. It’ll be dangerous if monsters come out of this place after we’ve used up our energy or the materials in the invisible storage equipment. I suggest we rest during the hot day from tomorrow onwards. When it gets cold at night, we’ll hurry on with our journey. This way, we can preserve our physical strength and supplies to the greatest extent, hehe.”

A Summoner at the seven Suns realm could not completely go without food, especially in a place like this. The physical consumption was too great, and it was impossible not to eat.

Shu Longxi nodded in agreement, but then she pointed at a sand dune in the distance. can you go over there tonight? don’t come near me!

“What are you doing?” Xia Pingan was stunned for a moment.

“Because I’m going to take a bath, you’re not allowed to peek at Yingluo.”

Looking at Shu Longxi’s stubborn expression, Xia Pingan also felt his teeth hurt. He glanced at Shu Longxi. with your figure, what’s so good about it? you actually need me to leave.

“Get lost!” Shu Longxi hugged her chest and glared at him in embarrassment.

“Sure, but don’t beg me when you run out of water!”

Shu Longxi snorted coldly. I’m covered in sweat after walking. If I don’t take a bath, I’d rather die right now. If you really have the ability to make me die Here, then go out and see if the Shu long family will let you off!

Xia Pingan was speechless and could only avoid it.

Seeing that Xia ping ‘an had really left, Shu Longxi took out a tent and set up a formation disk to protect herself. Only then did she feel at ease and went into the tent to take a bath.

If Xia Pingan was beside her, Shu Longxi felt that even if she took out the disk array, she wouldn’t be able to protect herself. She would feel exposed. She had to let Xia Pingan go far away before she could be at ease. This was a wondrous psychological feeling.

After climbing over the hill, Xia Pingan took out a tent made of the shells of the demonic fire spiders by the craftsmen in the secret mandala and went inside to rest. Although summoned creatures could not be used here, the disk array and mechanical puppets could be used. He used a disk array to protect himself and released a few Spider puppets to run outside the disk array and drill into the sand to be sentries. He then placed a Brazier made of the fire sacks of the demonic fire spiders in the tent to keep warm. The tent became warm all of a sudden. Xia Pingan also fell asleep immediately to recover his energy and strength.

Ever since they had left the heavenly movement sect’s Secret realm, Xia Pingan had either been running or fighting. He had exhausted a lot of energy.

On the second day, ten black Suns appeared again. The temperature in the Desert Rose rapidly, and the heat returned. Xia Pingan stayed in his tent and took out some metals and tools. He began to study the mechanical puppet technique and make lightning talismans. When the sun had set and the will-o’- the-wisps appeared in the desert again, Xia Pingan put away his tent, the array disc, and the spider puppet, and prepared to continue his journey.

Xia Pingan put away her things. Shu Longxi also put away her formation disks and tent.

The two of them resumed their journey.

Although it was cold to travel at night, they didn’t feel cold when they walked. They didn’t need to drink water frequently to replenish their body’s water, so it was indeed much better than traveling during the day.

The two of them traveled in the desert for more than a hundred days.

The desert was boundless. Other than the sand and the green will-o’- the-wisp that had appeared that night, there was not even a single cactus. In the beginning, the two of them were worried that there were monsters in the desert. However, as time passed and it was too boring, Xia Pingan actually hoped that something would come out of the desert to relieve his boredom.

Unfortunately, there was nothing but sand.

If there was no one by his side, he might really go crazy if he trekked alone in this vast sea of sand for such a long time.

This desolate and strange desert was like a vast and boundless cage. The sand was the guard of this cage, and it was everywhere.

Just like this, for more than a hundred days, Xia Pingan and Shu Longxi walked down together. Occasionally, they would chat a little, and they would become familiar with each other like they had become friends.

Unconsciously, the two of them could camp together during the day. Shu Longxi didn’t seem to be afraid of Xia Pingan setting up camp beside her.

Shu Longxi bathed every day. Xia Pingan discovered to his surprise that this woman’s spatial storage was so big. The water seemed to never run out. Not only that, Shu Longxi also changed into new dresses and new clothes every day. There was no repetition. He really didn’t know how many things this woman had brought him.

Realizing that Xia Pingan had a spider puppet, Shu Longxi shamelessly asked for a few from Xia Pingan to keep watch for her.

These days, when Xia Pingan was resting during the day, he would study the art of puppetry when he had nothing to do. It was rare that no one would disturb him here. Unknowingly, Xia Pingan’s level of puppetry had improved by leaps and bounds. It could be considered an unexpected gain.

Because he was afraid of getting lost in the desert, Xia ping ‘an would summon Cui Hao every three days and let Cui Hao divine to confirm the auspicious position to correct the direction. Luckily, the direction that Cui Hao divined was very fixed and always pointed in the same direction. Xia ping’ an and Shu Longxi were confident that they could walk out of this desert.

......

On this day, the two of them were still walking in the desolate desert. Unconsciously, the two of them found that there were more green will-o’- the-wisps in the desert in front of them, and the two of them became more careful.

“What’s that?” Shu Longxi suddenly pointed at a sand dune in front and called out.

There were over 10 will-o’- the-wisps on that Hill. Among the green will-o’- the-wisps, a silver light was faintly flickering, which was especially dazzling for those who had been used to the monotony of the desert.

Xia ping ‘an and Shu Longxi were like people who had sailed on the sea for too long and discovered a new continent. The two of them looked at each other and their spirits rose. They hurriedly ran towards the place where the silver light was.

Under the sand dune, the silver light only revealed a little bit about the size of half a palm. It was abnormally smooth and looked like an upside-down silver bowl.

Xia Pingan ran over, squatted down, and dug open the sand dune next to the silver light. Only then did he realize that it was a skull, a silver skull. The silver light that had just been exposed outside the sand dune was The Silver Skull of a skull.

There was a spine under the skull. It seemed to be a complete corpse, but no one knew how long it had been buried here.

“I’ll go!” Xia Pingan stood up. He was also shocked by The Silver Skull.

let me sort it out, ” Shu Longxi said. Xia Pingan pushed her away. Shu Longxi pointed at the sand dune, and a mysterious divine power appeared from her body. The sand dune started to surge up like a fountain. The sand at the bottom rose up, and even the silver skeleton buried in the sand dune was brought up by the rolling sand.

The skeleton was very complete. All the bones were silver, and it didn’t look like an ordinary person.

Shu Longxi squatted on the ground and inspected it. Then she stood up, her brows furrowed.

...

“Who is this person? why is the bone armor silver?” Xia ping ‘an asked. In terms of knowledge, Xia ping’ an knew that the woman in front of him was ten times more knowledgeable than him, and he really could not compare to her.

“This is the skeleton left behind by a Summoner of the eight sun realm. It looks like it has been here for a few hundred years,” Shu Longxi said to Xia Pingan.

Even Summoners at the eight-sun realm died here?

The desert seemed to have become dangerous all of a sudden. The two of them looked at each other and immediately raised their vigilance.
