Chapter 388

Nowadays, professionals had already given up on making dictionaries for real runes and directly used the dictionaries in their inherited memories. Other than a few key runes, most of them used virtual runes to create virtual runes, which could save a lot of materials and work. However, after Guo Shier obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Soul Altar, he understood that this step was indispensable, as it would affect his future construction of the Soul Altar.

In Guo Shier's soul, there were already more than a hundred real runes. They were all the most basic runes, and each rune was a rune. At the moment, he still had no way to form rune commands, so he could only use the real runes to transform into virtual runes. Although he could not see the effect at the moment, he still purified the materials step by step and continued to make runes.

This kind of rune needed high-quality materials to make. If he had not obtained a high-level Variant Gold Armor, he would not have been able to gather the main materials. This time, he was very lucky to obtain the Variant Gold Armor and a lot of high-quality materials for making runes. As long as he purified them, he could make a lot of runes.

The outer shell of the Variant Gold Armor was one of the best rune materials. Of course, it would be even better if he used the outer shell of the Variant Gold Armor, but that was impossible. Guo Shier did not have the ability to obtain such high-quality materials.

In addition to purifying the materials, Guo Shier also made two runes and integrated them into his soul. This was painstaking work, and could not be done in one go. It required a lot of time and energy. However, he was not anxious. The power of the real runes to virtual runes was indeed great, but he could also use virtual runes to transform them into virtual runes. When he did not have any runes, he could use virtual runes to satisfy his needs.

Seven days later, Luo Zhan and Xu Yan returned together.

Guo Shier smiled and asked, "Uncle Luo, how was it?"

Luo Zhan's face was flushed red. Xu Yan rushed to say, "Shier, I didn't expect Old Luo to be so powerful. He immediately obtained the inheritance of an advanced Mad Master. As long as he spent some time digesting and absorbing it, and studied a little harder, advancing to an advanced Mad Master would not be a problem. Hehe, I didn't expect that."

Guo Shier and Falconer did not find this strange. They already knew that Professionals from low level continents would have a shocking improvement as long as they had the opportunity to obtain an inheritance. This was because the external conditions of the professions in low-level continents were too poor. To be able to reach the peak of their profession in a low-level continent meant that their potential was very good. Moreover, they were all very hardworking people. In this aspect, the professions in high-level continents couldn't compare.

Xu Yan said, "With Old Luo's potential, becoming a Great Saint Master … shouldn't be a problem."

Guo Shier now knew that the Great Saint Master was actually a dividing line. Only after surpassing the Great Saint Master could one be considered a true top-level professional. As for how the Professions were divided after the Great Saint Master level, he wasn't too clear on that. However, the Great Saint Master was the peak that most Professions pursued. If one wanted to surpass it, then it would be extremely difficult.

Luo Zhan said happily, "Ai, I'll borrow your auspicious words. If I can become a Great Saint Master, then I'll be satisfied for the rest of my life."

Guo Shier's goal was not to become a Great Saint Master. His goal was to reach the same level as Li Ran. Ever since he saw that Li Ran had a six layer Soul Altar, he was determined to reach that goal. Great Saint Master was just a level he had to surpass. Of course, before he succeeded, he wouldn't casually say it. Even if he did, no one would believe him.

After Luo Zhan returned, Guo Shier decided to stay for a few more days. He needed to give Luo Zhan some time to digest and learn. With Falconer by his side, Luo Zhan obtained a lot of convenience. He could ask him for guidance at any time. Falconer was already a Primary Saint Master. He had basically digested and absorbed the Ancient Soul Altar's inheritance. Although it was still lacking, it was enough to teach Luo Zhan.

Unknowingly, they had stayed at the Fire School for another ten days. On this day, the three bid farewell to Han Yan and Xu Yan. Han Yan felt a bit regretful. He really wanted to pull Guo Shier into the Fire School, but if Guo Shier didn't want to stay, he couldn't force him. After giving Han Yan and Xu Yan a small gift, Guo Shier left with Falconer and Luo Zhan.

Xu Yan saw the three out of the Fire School, and Guo Shier exchanged communication talismans with him. During this time, the two had become good friends. Guo Shier promised that if he ever came to the Earthfire Continent, he would definitely come to the Fire School to find him.

It wasn't easy to make friends in this world. After leaving, they might never have the chance to meet again. Thus, everyone was very open-minded and free. To be able to become friends by fate, they naturally treasured it. Even if they never met again, it would still be a memory in their memories. After waving goodbye, Guo Shier brought Falconer and Luo Zhan into the distance.

The Earthfire Continent was enormous, and the Fire School only occupied a very small area. Although it was the largest sect on the Earthfire Continent, the entire continent was much larger than the North Fu Men that Guo Shier had come from. During this time, Guo Shier had been constantly inquiring about Luo Jie's whereabouts, but he hadn't received any news from the Fire School. This meant that Luo Jie hadn't been to the Fire School's territory.

After passing through a large forest, they quickly arrived at a swamp.

Guo Shier had obtained a talisman map of the Earthfire Continent from the Fire School. It was a rough map with the distribution of some sects, the distribution of volcanoes, and a few important regions. However, it was very simple. This swamp was recorded on the talisman map. It was called Yumo Swamp, and it was shrouded in a hazy drizzle all year round.

Falconer asked, "Is there a description on the talisman map?"

Guo Shier fiddled with the talisman map and said, "Yumo Swamp, this place is called Yumo Swamp. There's no specific description. If we want to go there, it'll take about six days, or three if we fly at full speed. However, the talisman map doesn't record any dangerous mutated talisman insects or mutated talisman beasts."

Luo Zhan frowned and said, "The swamp … is very difficult to walk."

Guo Shier laughed, "That's not a problem. I have the Perching Dragon, so it shouldn't be a problem. The Perching Dragon is amphibious, so it won't be difficult to walk through the swamp."

Falconer said, "Don't joke around. Most swamps are filled with traps. If your Perching Dragon falls into one … uh, I was wrong. Your Perching Dragon is a spirit beast, so it's not afraid of falling into the swamp."

The Perching Dragon was not a real mutated talisman beast, but a spirit beast. Once it fell into the swamp, as long as Guo Shier kept it in the beast talisman, there would be no problem.

Guo Shier was a little worried about the swamp. He knew that this kind of uninhabited place was gloomy and damp all year round. It was most likely to breed strange creatures. Especially in this world, extreme environments would have extreme creatures. For example, there would be strange talisman insects like the Big Golden Armor in the magma of a volcano. This was completely unimaginable in his previous world.

However, they had to cross this swamp no matter how difficult it was.

With a loud rumble, the Perching Dragon appeared in front of them.

Luo Zhan shook his head and said, "This big guy is a little scary."

Guo Shier flew onto the back of the Perching Dragon and said, "Uncle Falconer, Uncle Luo, come on."

The Perching Dragon was very excited. It raised its head and roared. It was very unhappy to be stuck in the beast talisman. Now that it was finally released by its master, it couldn't help but roar in excitement. Guo Shier stomped his feet and scolded jokingly, "Don't shout like a ghost! Let's go! "

The Perching Dragon didn't care about Guo Shier's scolding. It swung its thick tail proudly and rushed out with a bang.

Guo Shier stood on the Perching Dragon's wide forehead. Falconer and Luo Zhan stood on his left and right respectively. The Perching Dragon was very fast. It had been stuck for too long and couldn't help but run like crazy. Its huge body was like a battleship, and its thick feet stepped on the swamp, splashing up a lot of muddy water.

The Perching Dragon was tall and long. One step was 100 meters. It was not slower than the flying people.

Guo Shier smiled and said, "At this speed, we can get out of the swamp in two days."

Falconer said, "Not necessarily … Shier, look behind you."

Guo Shier turned around and saw that the Perching Dragon had left huge footprints in the swamp, which were then filled with water, creating a large amount of white foam. The muddy water in the swamp was tumbling, and countless insects emerged from the water, forming a fog of insects that followed the Perching Dragon. Because the Perching Dragon was very fast, the fog was always left behind.

The fog was gray. Guo Shier couldn't see how many insects there were. Fortunately, the insects weren't big. The biggest one was only a foot long. Countless insects gathered together. It was so densely packed that it made people's scalp go numb.

Guo Shier exclaimed, "Damn, there are so many small insects!"

Luo Zhan said, "Let's run … although the insects are small, who knows what's strange about them!" He knew that talisman insects were hard to deal with. Moreover, talisman insects were insidious. It was best to avoid them as much as possible. He didn't want to fight with these small insects at all.

Guo Shier knew the characteristics of talisman insects better than Luo Zhan. He immediately urged the Perching Dragon to speed up.

As the Perching Dragon moved forward, the fog behind them became bigger and bigger. Falconer reminded, "Shier, be careful in front. There seems to be a fog of insects over there!"

Guo Shier wiped his eyes. A rune flashed and he immediately saw the fog of insects in the distance. He made the Perching Dragon turn around without hesitation and said, "Good fella, a foot long mosquito!"

Falconer said anxiously, "Give me a rune."

Guo Shier casually added a rune to Falconer's eyes. Immediately, Falconer could clearly see the fog of insects in the distance. The most frightening thing was that the fog of insects was flying towards them at high speed.

The foot long black mosquito was obviously a mutated talisman insect. The black mosquito's body was covered with white runes. The flapping sound of its wings could be heard from far away. The buzzing sound made people's hair stand on end.

Luo Zhan said with a bitter smile, "This place is a bit evil!"

Falconer said, "Evil or not … since we are already in, we have to find a way to get out as soon as possible."

Guo Shier also smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew that the swamp was not easy to walk through, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult. Last time, he had experienced the insect tide of golden-shelled insects. He knew that once the talisman insects formed a large group, they would be very difficult to deal with. There was no way to kill them. Even if it was just a low level mutated talisman insect, it was still not easy to deal with.

When the Perching Dragon turned around, Guo Shier knew that it would not be easy to run out of this swamp. When he looked at the rune map, he knew that this swamp was long and narrow like a ribbon. It would only take six days to cross it. If he used the Perching Dragon, it might only take two days. However, if he was forced to turn around, it would take far more than two days to cross.

Luo Zhan also saw the fog of insects at this time and couldn't help but shout, "Damn … another group of mosquitoes!"

Falconer shouted, "Go through this way!"
