738 The Terrifying Oasis
It was said that Wushuang Ghost rarely left Huangsha Town. He usually hunted fierce beasts in the surrounding area. This time, he suddenly left the town and appeared at the Dragon Inn. This seemed to be different from his usual behavior.
“Of course not. Although hunting fierce beasts is my interest, the Golden Desert is full of yellow sand. I hate yellow sand, so if I won’t go too far, I’ll try to stay there. However, I heard the news about an old friend and I wanted to see if it was true. So I left Huangsha Town and came here,” said Wushuang Ghost with a serious expression.
There was a hint of anticipation and complications in his words.
The anticipation was because he hoped to see the old friend, but the complexity was that he was afraid that the news was fake and that it would be an empty joy.
“Have you found the old friend you’re looking for? Who is he?”
Li Xiang immediately took this seriously. With Wushuang Ghost’s ability, an old friend he recognized was certainly not ordinary. He might even be the talent he was looking for.
“Well, I haven’t had the time to find it. But according to the news, I feel that it is very similar to my old friend. Moreover, it’s said that he is lost in an oasis, so I plan to go and take a look. If he’s really my old friend, I’ll save him no matter what,” said Wushuang Ghost in a low voice.
“Lost in the oasis? Is the oasis you’re talking about the legendary Devil Oasis?” Jin Xiangyu’s eyes flashed and she asked directly.
“That’s right! It’s the Devil Oasis!” Wushuang Ghost nodded in confirmation.
“What is the Devil Oasis?” Li Xiang asked with a slight frown.
“In the Golden Desert, there are a few terrifying forbidden places. They are the Devil Kingdom Secret Realm, the Devil Oasis, and the Quicksand River. These were all terrifying forbidden zones for life. It was almost impossible to come out alive once one encountered them. Not even one out of a hundred people could come out alive. The Devil Oasis is a moving oasis!”
Jin Xiangyu said with a serious expression, “The oasis can appear anywhere, in any area. It’s not much different from an ordinary oasis. It’s said that cultivators, fierce beasts, foreign races, and all kinds of monsters near the Devil Oasis will be attracted by a mysterious force and enter the place unconsciously, then never come out again.”
The Devil Oasis was a forbidden existence in the Golden Desert. It was a forbidden zone for life.
The scary thing about the Devil Oasis wasn’t that it could make people enter it, but that it could move. Once the oasis appeared, the cultivators nearby would be in danger. No one knew if they could survive.
The unknown was the most terrifying.
“Yes, it’s the Devil Oasis. If it wasn’t for the possibility of an old friend being lost there, I wouldn’t have gone to the Devil Oasis. That place is too dangerous. Even I don’t have the confidence to come out alive,” said Wushuang Ghost seriously.
Li Xiang nodded to himself.
Despite knowing that it would be difficult for him to come out alive once he entered, he was still willing to go and save his old friend. Just this point showed Wushuang Ghost’s character of valuing relationships and friendships. With the virtues of the ancient people, he could do anything for his brothers.
“The most recent appearance of the Devil Oasis is three hundred Li away from the Dragon Inn. At that time, a group of desert bandits and a female cultivator had been fighting fiercely. The Devil Oasis had suddenly appeared, and the group of desert bandits and female cultivators had entered the oasis without being aware. Many cultivators in the surrounding area also disappeared. Someone had been waiting for an entire day and hadn’t found anyone coming out of the Devil Oasis.” Jin Xiangyu once again revealed an important piece of news.
This was the latest news, and it was a big event that happened near Dragon Inn. How could she not know? Jin Xiangyu wouldn’t have to do any intelligence business if she didn’t even know this.
“Could your old friend be that female cultivator?” Li Xiang looked at Wushuang Ghost and asked.
“Yup, but I’m not sure if it’s her. However, according to the information, the way they dressed and their cultivation levels were very similar. No matter what, I still have to go and take a look.”
“But the Devil Oasis has already disappeared!” said Jin Xiangyu.
“Although the Devil Oasis moves, according to the pattern of its movements in the past, it’s estimated that it won’t move too far away from the previous time under normal circumstances. If I’m not mistaken, the Devil Oasis should still be moving around the surrounding area. Besides, this is also the reason why I came to Dragon Inn. In terms of information, Dragon Inn is second to none in the Golden Desert.”
Jin Xiangyu was not humble at all when it came to information.
This was the business of Dragon Inn. It was the most important thing for it to be well informed. Moreover, it was not just human cultivators who collected information. It was also a way of communicating with other people. The inn itself had a powerful intelligence system, a complete set of the information collection system.
This was a unique method of Dragon Inn.
As for what their information collection system was, it was very difficult for outsiders to know other than the inn’s people.
“The Devil Oasis is too strange. No matter what it is, it will attract whatever that comes within a certain range. Even my spies don’t dare to approach it easily. The Devil Oasis’ whereabouts are uncertain and irregular. Even if it is nearby, it is still a huge area with a radius of hundreds of miles. It’s more difficult to find it in the huge Golden Desert. However, if nothing unexpected happens, there will be news of the Devil Oasis by tomorrow morning,” said Jin Xiangyu confidently.
“That’s great! It’s said that the Devil Oasis will stay for three days every time it appears. As long as the news comes fast enough, we’ll have enough time to get to the oasis.” Wushuang Ghost was overjoyed.
The main purpose of coming to Dragon Inn this time was to obtain information about the Devil Oasis. Now it seemed that he had made the right decision.
“That’s good. We’ll stay in the inn for the time being. We’ll talk about everything tomorrow.”
Li Xiang nodded and said.
He was also very interested in the Devil Oasis. There might be great opportunities in such a forbidden land. Danger always coexisted with opportunities. The greater the danger, the greater the opportunities.
“Then please stay here for a night, Country Lord Li. There will be information tomorrow morning,” Jin Xiang Yu nodded and said confidently.
Obviously, she wasn’t worried about getting information about the Devil Oasis. Others might not know, but every time the Devil Oasis moved, they could get the news in the shortest time and find its traces unless the distance was too far apart.
Such a forbidden area was the best source of information. Many people had come here specifically to buy information about the forbidden area. First, they could avoid danger; and second, they could accurately find the location.
