It was a deep and serene valley, which was covered with large areas of fungi which could survive in the dark. All the fungi were higher than 2 m like huge umbrellas. Some fungi were as high as 3-4 m. They were like pavilions. At the first glance, the entire valley was like a bizarre children's playground...
Water was flowing out of the mountain walls on both sides of the valley. In the Earth-elements Realm, as long as there were underground plants, it would be full of vitality.
This was an ideal place for all the squads to take a rest.
All the knights in the team led by the white-eyebrow old man were knights of Zhang Clan of Tianlu Palace in Taixia Country. The white-eyebrow old man was called Zhang Anguo, the grand elder of the Elders' Committee of Tianlu Palace. Of course, "An" was exclusive to the knights of Zhang Clan of Tianlu Palace like "Mu" in Huaiyuan Palace.
Given that Tianlu Palace could dispatch a grand elder and 9 knights in the Earth-elements Realm, Zhang Tie knew the great gap between Tianlu Palace and Huaiyuan Palace. Zhang Tie sighed with emotions inside, 'I wonder when Huaiyuan Palace could reach such a level.'
The knights led by Old Monster Qi also came from the Lion Fortress. Besides Old Monster Qi, all the other black iron knights were strange faces in the Lion Fortress. As there were too many knights in the Lion Fortress, they had a high mobility; especially black iron knights. If they were not outstanding ace knights, they could barely make a name for themselves in the Lion Fortress.
The three teams of knights set up camp less than ten kilometers away from each other.
Zhang Tie's team directly chose to camp on the thighs of a huge sitting statue.
This position was 400-500 m high from the ground. It was relatively clean and refreshing. When the two thighs of the huge statue were put together, it was as large as a square. It was enough for thousands of people to camp here. Additionally, it was a valley where they could obtain food conveniently.
...
Zhang Tie also took out a simple foldable tent from his luggage. The tent only weighed 2-3 kgs and was only as large as a hat after being folded. After finding a suitable place, Zhang Tie threw the tent onto the ground. The tent then unfolded itself and turned into a camouflage dome tent. Now there was a place for them to live.
Such a simple portable tent was only used to prevent mosquitoes and rainwater and to protect one's privacy. It didn't have any defensive ability. All the others' tents were almost like this. As for knights, even if they slept in armored vehicles, the defensive ability of armored vehicles was not very useful to them. Therefore, they didn't have any requirement for tents.
The moment Zhang Tie pressed the steel nails on the four corners of the tent into the rocks and fixed the tent, Gong Ziyao came to his front, "Let's go get some food."
"Where's Brother Zhou?"
"He's going to get some materials to start a fire and some water. After being out for so many days, his mouth is already so bland. It's time for a change!"
Zhang Tie stood up as he called Filton who was not far away from him. Filton hurriedly ran towards him.
"We're going to get some food, do you want to go with us?"
After hearing that they were going to get food, Filton's eyes gleamed at once as he licked his lips, "I feel like vomiting after eating breadfruit and nutritious mushrooms in the Lion Fortress..."
Zhang Tie and Gong Ziyao burst out into laughter. After greeting Cecilia, Filton, Cecilia and Filton flew off the statue.
As there were about 2 days left before they could enter the magma sea, with three earth knights on their side, they became relaxed at once...
...
With the perception and night vision ability of knights, after a short while, the three people found a prey in a cluster of mushrooms in the valley.
It was a thing which laughed like a dog. When Zhang Tie caught sight of it, it was eating a fingernail-sized termite at the root of the mushroom. At the sight of this thing, Gong Ziyao took out a fluorite lamp with a lens and illuminated it towards that thing. At the sight of the light, that thing became still at once like being fixed in the legend. After that, Gong Ziyao casually walked over there and pointed at its head, causing it to die. Closely after that, he easily picked it up.
The whole process was pretty easy.
"Brother Gong, what's this?" Zhang Tie asked as he felt it was interesting.
"This thing is called ground beetle. It's very vigilant. However, as long as it sees light, it would not move at all. It would become relaxed all over. If you kill it in this state, its flesh would be very tasty. If you kill it in the dark when it's vigilant and scared to death, its glands would secrete a bizarre substance, which would make its flesh sour and poisonous. In that case, it would be inedible!" Gong Ziyao explained.
In the next half an hour, the three of them caught another ground beetle and found some edible mushrooms in a field of mushrooms. They took these things and flew to the side of a mountain spring. After cleaning them, the three of them brought their prey back to the campsite.
There were some bonfires in the camp. It was easy for them to find fire materials. Those withered mushrooms in the valley were natural firewood.
Lu Zhongming, Lin Huanxi and the others also started bonfires. After getting some prey, they were preparing to eat it.
At this moment, it was absolutely necessary for knights to take a proper rest and adjust their physical strength and state. Because they didn't know what they would face after entering the hieron ruins two days later.
Zhang Tie's group roasted two ground beetles and cooked a pot of mushroom soup, which was rare and delicious.
Sitting around the bonfire, the six people chatted while eating. Not until they ate up all the food did they return to their own tents for a rest.
Knights didn't have much time to sleep. Actually, they were cultivating and forming their chakras most of the time.
After entering his tent, Zhang Tie pulled up the zipper of his tent. Sitting in the tent with crossed legs, Zhang Tie started to count and digest the achievements of the demon knight that he had killed a few days ago...
As same as the first time, when Zhang Tie recovered his composure, he "saw" a large area of golden, pure earth element crystals rotating around his first chakra like satellites on the orbit of a planet, waiting to be converted into his earth chakra at any time...
This achievement was indeed a bit less than that of the demon knight that he killed last time. However, it was at least 4 dragon scales.
Zhang Tie revealed a smile...
The geometrical patterns of the earth chakra in King Roc Sutra gradually lit up one after another...
...
After a few hours, 4 more dragon scales in Cui LI's knight's crystal plate were lit one after another, increasing to 40 dragon scales on the entire crystal plate...
Such a speed, if it were to be spread out, it would simply be shocking.
Soon after Zhang Tie lit up the four dragon scales, a black light flashed across the sky.
"Something's wrong..." A muffled voice suddenly sounded outside...
All the knights woke up at the same time and rushed out of their tents as fast as they could, whether they had fallen asleep or were in cultivation...
In a place over 70 miles away, a knight's smoke rose into the sky and dimmed down in a split second...
