Lu Qingshan also failed to overcome this shortcoming.

Even with the Five Elements Sword Armor, he couldn't guarantee that he could withstand the thunder bombardment in the penalty area.

This is no joke, if you don't do it right, your life will be gone.

But he had to take this thunder fruit that was about to mature.

"It seems that we can only use foreign objects." After pondering for a moment, Lu Qingshan made a plan in his mind.

He hurriedly entered the city, and after getting the news he wanted, he also hurriedly left the city.

The figure flew straight up, following the map's guidance, and headed towards the direction of the Giant Bear Tribe's Giant Bear City.

.........

In the vast desert, the wind and sand are raging, and the scorching sun is shining.

Lu Qingshan, who transformed into a rainbow and moved forward, finally met his first cultivator after leaving Dongque City.

It was a bald monk who was naked except for a narrow strip of cloth covering the sensitive parts of his lower body. He was walking barefoot in the desert.

The monk did not activate any spiritual power to protect himself, so the yellow sand, which was as hot as iron particles on a hot pot, had already burned the soles of the monk's feet, which had just begun to practice Qi, and caused wounds one after another.

This is the most famous ascetic among the Western Regions practitioners.

Asceticism is not a certain inheritance, but a way of practice and belief.

In general physical cultivation, what is cultivated is the body.

Ascetics cultivate their bodies and minds at the same time.

In their view, a physical body without a strong heart, no matter how strong it is, is nothing but a skin.

Only if you have no distracting thoughts in your mind can you achieve true results.

This is the practice philosophy of ascetics.

They force themselves to endure things that ordinary people consider painful to exercise endurance and detachment.

The word ascetic originally means "heat" in Sanskrit, so receiving heat is the main method of ascetic practice.

Major deserts have become places frequented by these ascetics.

If one really reaches great success in practicing this way of ascetic monks, I am afraid that people will become a piece of wood with no desires or desires.

It is good to be just without desires, but at the same time it loses humanity.

This is a very terrible thing, because without humanity, it can be called a saint, but it can also be called a devil.

Lu Qingshan is not afraid of the pain of cultivation, but he cannot agree with this kind of self-inflicted hardship.

Besides, when you cultivate your true nature, you cultivate your true nature, not your seven emotions and six desires.

If that's the case, it's better not to practice this "truth".

Although he criticized the idea of ​​ascetics, Lu Qingshan still had some respect for these practitioners who could endure what ordinary people could not endure.

He slowly landed in front of the young ascetic, clasped his hands together, made a monk's salute, and asked politely: "I wonder if my fellow monks know which direction the Giant Bear City should go?"

Yes, even with a map, Lu Qingshan was still lost.

After leaving Dongque City, he encountered a sandstorm. After leaving the sandstorm, he lost his way.

Although at night, after the stars appear, he can get back on track.

But since we met an ascetic and asked for directions to save some time, why not?

The ascetic monk dared to practice like this in the desert, so he naturally had his own way of identifying directions, unlike Lu Qingshan who could only rely on the stars in the sky for positioning.

Seeing Lu Qingshan descending from the sky, the ascetic monk knew that Lu Qingshan was at least a monk in the foundation-building stage. He also clasped his hands together, saluted Lu Qingshan in return, and said politely: "Fellow Taoist, please wait a moment."

Then he grabbed a wisp of fine sand from the yellow sand under his feet and gently sprinkled it out.

The fine sand drifted away in the wind, and the ascetic monk did not know what method he used, but he actually identified the specific direction from it. Pointing to the opposite direction where the fine sand was scattered, he said: "Fellow Taoist, the Giant Bear City should be in this direction.

"

"Thank you, monk." Lu Qingshan said gratefully.

Immediately, Lu Qingshan stood up with his sword again, and continued to move forward in the direction pointed by the ascetic monk.

The ascetic monk didn't take this chance encounter in the desert seriously, and immediately continued walking barefoot under the scorching sun.

............

But half an hour later.

Whoosh whoosh!

Another dozen figures descended from the sky and landed in front of the ascetic monk.

The leader was an ugly male cultivator with a black birthmark on his face. His face was ferocious and his tone was extremely cold. "Monk, have you seen any monks passing by from the sky?"

The ascetic monk's heart skipped a beat.

Since he chose to practice asceticism in the Mogao Desert, he naturally has a certain understanding of the charming characters in the Mogao Desert.

The appearance of the person in front of him and the black birthmark were so conspicuous that he recognized his identity at a glance.

The evil cultivator who has a wanted order in Daxia, a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, is poisonous.

Because he practiced evil arts and harmed mortals, he was wanted by Daxia. In desperation, he finally fled into the Mogao Desert and joined the sand bandits.

Relying on his own cultivation and ruthless methods, Shendu gradually became a small leader among the bandits, responsible for intercepting and killing the so-called "fat sheep" who were alone.

And the Mogao Desert is so vast that you don't even see a bird on weekdays. How can a monk encounter it so easily?
