Chapter 343: Chapter 222: Oasis (Request for Monthly Tickets)_2

There was more....

At this moment, an unknown beast standing outside the bushes growled lowly and lunged directly at Li Qian, who was lying in a shallow pit.

Li Qian suddenly rolled away, dodging a deadly strike, and fiercely stabbed out with a branch in his hand.

Crack!

But the branch snapped upon impact, numbing his arm. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

The beast’s hide was extraordinarily thick, his attack was unable to inflict any harm on the beast.

Li Qian crawled out of the bushes and sprinted towards the lights in the distance.

At this time, heading outside the Oasis was definitely not an option.

Although the Oasis also harbored more beasts... he couldn’t afford to worry about that now.

Ao!

The beast growled lowly and fiercely pursued him.

Li Qian pushed himself to his limits, hearing the howling behind him, he suddenly rolled again, followed by feeling a heavy thump on his shoulder, creating a cold sensation.

He didn’t have time to think, dodging left and right, evading the beast’s attacks from behind.

He was hit in several places... although there was no pain, he felt certain that he was wounded, and not just in one or two places.

At this moment, he finally entered deep into the Oasis, seeing vaguely a circle of simple wooden hut shelters, and silhouettes fending off the invading beasts.

Li Qian, unable to dodge in time, was overrun and toppled by the beast behind him.

The beast was immensely strong, opening its large bloody mouth, snarling towards Li Qian’s head.

After all, Li Qian was a Martial Artist by trade, and though his physique was like that of a regular person in the Yellow Sand World, his combat instincts remained.

He shrank and used his forearm to block the beast’s large mouth.

Along with a crack...

Li Qian felt one of his arm’s bones being directly crushed.

The intense pain made him gasp in a breath of cold air, but his eyes flashed fiercely as he tightly hugged the beast’s neck with one hand, entwining his legs around it, no matter how the beast tore at him, he just wouldn’t let go.

Once thrown off by the beast, he would surely have no chance of survival.

Suddenly, a figure dashed out from the encampment, moving incredibly fast, seemingly wielding a crude spear, and fiercely plunged it into the beast attacking Li Qian.

Ao!

The beast released Li Qian’s arm, roaring as it charged at the figure, only to be fiercely speared in the mouth.

After a mad struggle, the beast gradually stopped moving.

Li Qian still clung tightly to the beast, feeling the hot blood flowing from its body, and without hesitation began to gulp it down.

From his mouth to his stomach, the pain was searing, but he relished it.

He could feel his strength rapidly recovering.

"Are you a Refinement Returner?"

Suddenly, the figure who had killed the beast spoke.

Li Qian, enduring the pain, let go of the beast and with difficulty crawled out from under the heavy corpse of the beast, one arm nearly severed, bloody and exposed with stark white bone.

He looked at the rugged, tall man not far from him.

Strangely though, this man had two horns on his head and a tail...

"How did you know?"

Li Qian felt a strong oppressive force emanating from this man.

This man was very strong.

Even in his peak condition, he wouldn’t be a match.

Of course, that’s in the Void State.

"Those who appear here are all Refinement Returners, including me..."

The burly man said indifferently.

Saying this, he dragged the beast’s corpse and turned towards the encampment, "Come in."

By then, the battle within the encampment was nearly over.

Several corpses of the invading beasts remained.

And in the encampment, some people were injured.

Li Qian briefly glanced over, roughly seeing about a dozen people.

From their physical characteristics, it was clear they did not belong to the same tribe.

Their eyes also fell on Li Qian.

"Looks like a newcomer has arrived."

"Ts-ts, making it here means your luck isn’t too bad."

"He’s obviously from the Human Clan... the Human Clan is quite a popular group, plus this is a Refinement point of our area, it’s very likely he’s from the Longevity Realm?"

"Xu Ao, aren’t you from the Longevity Realm?"

....

These discussions sprung up among them.

All these people were Refinement Returners, slightly easing Li Qian’s mind.

He didn’t have to worry about additional risks due to being a Refinement Returner.

As long as it reaches the Supreme Saint, it’s possible for Refinement Returners to appear... the number of Refinement Returners entering this world is certainly not small.

Having a Refinement Returners gathering point here thus seemed quite normal.

"Everyone here uses a code name, choose one for yourself, my name is Tuo Ba."

The rugged man who saved Li Qian said.

"Qian Yuan."

Li Qian said one of his used names.

"Daoist Qian Yuan, you are a newcomer, entering this Oasis for the first time, you’re quite lucky, you should know how harsh the desert is, I as the temporary leader of this gathering point will briefly tell you the rules of the Oasis."

The burly man spoke: "The Oasis settlement is very dangerous, situations like tonight happen frequently, so if we want to maintain this Oasis settlement, we must unite. We’ll implement a rotating defense plan, whoever’s turn it is must stay unconditionally, rather than randomly ending Refinement."

"Daoist Tuo Ba, doesn’t the Refinement state end at dawn?"

Li Qian asked surprised.

"Who told you Refinement ends with time?"

The husky man Tuo Ba frowned as he responded.
