…
The wind was scorching hot, and there was a little stove on his shoulder. Mofan felt like he was having a hard time living here.
"Little Flame Belle, can't you go back to your nest and sleep?" Mofan could not stand the heat any longer. He asked Little Flame Belle.
Little Flame Belle was unhappy. Her pitiful eyes seemed to be saying, "Daddy, are you tired of me?"
"Fine, you can lie down, just don't drool on my shoulder," Mofan said helplessly.
Hanmi City was not huge. It was around the size of a second-tier city in China. However, its population was a lot less than in China. There were only a few cars and pedestrians on the long road. Perhaps it was because it was not the time to get off work.
"What kind of trouble did you guys run into?" Mofan asked Nan Jue.
After finishing the cold beer, the group kept discussing the incidents that had happened recently. Some were complaining to one another, while others were discussing how to outsmart the others. Mofan had just come online, so he had no idea what they were talking about.
"Here's the thing, around seventy kilometers away from Hanmi City, there's a city called the Ruins of Peru. I heard from the locals that the place has strong wind and strange energy, so there might be some good stuff there. The resources that the advisors are giving us aren't enough for us to survive. Apart from challenging the National Training Hall, most of us are trying our best to search for treasure, "Jiang Yu answered.
Even though everyone had a strong background, no one would complain about having too many resources. Weren't they traveling all over the world to search for valuable treasures?
Besides, the world was huge, so it was possible to find some rare treasures. Many of the experts had managed to find rare treasures and unique resources during their training, allowing them to slowly reach the peak of their lives. Therefore, it was important for them to have a fortunate encounter!
"Strong wind and strange energy, the Ruins of Desert City, interesting …" Mofan murmured.
He lowered his head and glanced at the Essence Orb in his hand.
As a matter of fact, when the plane landed in South America, the Essence Orb had already reacted. The light was pointing in the direction of the desert ruins. It seemed that the special ancient ruins had some kind of energy that could fill the Essence Orb!
"Interesting my ass, there's a long and narrow valley in front of the ancient ruins. It's the safest path to the ancient ruins, but we've already tried it, and it almost ended up in serious trouble. The valley is inhabited by a bunch of Earth Elemental Creatures with strong skin and flesh. We have no chance of crossing their territory," said Jiang Yu with a wry face.
They had tried it a while ago and were almost trapped in the Gobi Valley.
Of course, they knew that there would be a strange phenomenon in the ancient ruins and that a great treasure would appear. However, since they couldn't even pass through the Gobi Valley, they could only look at the ocean and sigh.
"I think we should just forget about it. We can't even make it through the Gobi Valley. Who knows what other dangerous things are lurking in the ancient ruins? There's no need to risk our lives for the unknown," Zu Jiming said.
"You're such a coward!" snapped Jiang Shaoxu.
Jiang Shaoxu was holding a grudge against Zu Jiming. She would never forget how Zu Jiming had abandoned her without any hesitation in the East Maritime Fortress.
"Coward, if you have a way, just go through the Gobi Valley. If you can't, just leave at once. You're wasting our time here!" snapped Zu Jiming.
"Don't, I think there must be something valuable there. What if it's a Soul Seed?" said Mofan.
Everyone's eyes flickered when they heard the name Soul Seed.
A Soul Seed was something that even their background might not be able to afford. Not only would the strength of their spells be multiplied when they obtained a Soul Seed in the Advanced Level, they would also have a chance to acquire a powerful Domain.
Everyone was well aware of how powerful a Domain was. The control of a Magician within the Domain would improve significantly, allowing them to manipulate and manipulate the spells of their respective Elements as they pleased!
"Yeah, we can still sense the unusual Wind and Lightning Elements from so far away. Luckily, the place is sparsely populated, so no other Magicians have noticed it yet. If we miss out on this opportunity, we're going to regret it for the rest of our lives," Jiang Yu suggested.
"Do you think it's that easy to find a Soul Seed? How naive!" said Guan Yu disdainfully.
Mofan had no idea if there was a Soul Seed there, but he was certain that it would have something he needed to replenish the Essence Orb. He had to go there.
However, according to Jiang Yu, the Gobi Valley was the habitat of the Earth Elementals. It was not going to be easy to cross it.
It would be great if Nan Ling was here. The little girl was smarter than humans. She might be able to come up with a plan.
"Actually, the Gobi Valley isn't as difficult as you think. They don't have eyes, and their senses are extremely slow. They only rely on the slight vibrations of the ground and the walls to track the intruders," said Nan Jue.
"Forget about flying, there are Black Sun Bats on both sides of the walls. They will surround us even if we fly in the sky, let alone flying across the valley. We shouldn't trespass on the demon beasts' territory," said Zhao Manyan, shaking his head.
He might have Wing Magic Equipment, but flying was the most dangerous part. The eyes of the demon beasts within a few dozen li would lock onto him like spotlights in a prison …
"I've spent the night constructing an Elemental Device that can alter the vibrations of the ground. We won't wake them up even if we cross their territory. However, we need someone to set up the Elemental Device and spread it out like a puzzle, so we can only travel between two Elemental Devices …" said Nan Jue.
"Why don't you give it a try?"
"Mm, I don't want to let go of the chance either."
The principle behind the device Nan Jue had constructed was very simple. It simply used two Elemental Devices to emit weak vibrations to stabilize the structure of the ground, preventing it from vibrating when the group was walking on it.
The Earth Elementals were extremely sensitive to the ground. Even a kitten walking on the ground would wake them up …
…
After leaving Hanmi City, the group headed straight to the Gobi Valley.
When they arrived at the Gobi Valley, Mo Fan noticed that the reaction of the Essence Orb was stronger than before. Mo Fan was overjoyed. It seemed like the ancient ruins did have something that could be filled up.
If he could collect more of the energy, Mo Fan had a feeling that he would be able to do whatever he wanted!
"Alright, what should we do now?" Guan Yu crossed his arms in front of his chest and stood proudly in front of the Gobi Valley.
He did not take another step forward. After entering the Gobi Valley, the ground had changed significantly. It was no longer a dry orange-yellow, but had a hint of red. The whole Gobi Valley was dark red, too!
As a matter of fact, the formation of the Gobi Valley was quite spectacular.
The vast and boundless land was divided into two layers. Towards the west, there was a sudden rise, and there was a continuous cliff parallel to the horizon. The cliff was like a magnificent city wall, blocking the originally flat terrain, as if it had divided into another world.
The ground at the top was made of scorching rocks. The temperature was shockingly high due to the intense heat of the sun. Even Advanced Magicians would feel like they were walking on fire when they walked on the ground.
The only thing with a slightly normal temperature was the long valley. The sunlight was unable to reach the valley, thus the temperature was a lot lower than the ground at the top.
The ancient ruins were located on the other side of the raised ground. It was an ancient sacred land that was isolated from the rest of the world, protected by the scorching heat of the mountain range. No one had ever explored the place. Even demon creatures would have a hard time breaking into the place. It was the place that had the highest chance of containing the Natural Treasure!
It was the main reason why the group had been lingering in the area for so many days.
"There are only three Elemental Devices, and each of them is a hundred meters away. We'll need someone to move the Elemental Devices forward, and someone to retrieve the Elemental Devices before we can move on," Nan Jue told the group.
"I'll go first!" Ai Jiangtu said.
"Mm, the Earth Elementals ahead aren't that strong. I don't think your Space Element will startle them," Nan Jue said.
"Can't I just move the Elemental Devices forward with my Telekinesis?" Mo Fan asked.
"No, the Elemental Devices have to be adjusted manually. The Elemental Devices have to be adjusted to different frequencies depending on the terrain," Nan Jue said sternly.
"Alright …"
Nan Jue placed an Elemental Device that looked like a spinning top at the entrance of the valley. She adjusted it manually, and when the Elemental Device emitted a green glow, she signaled Ai Jiangtu to set off.
Ai Jiangtu immediately constructed a Star Constellation. His body emitted a mysterious silver glow.
The space shuddered as Ai Jiangtu vanished into thin air. He reappeared a hundred meters away from the valley all of a sudden.
"Crack, crack, crack, crack ~"
Almost as soon as Ai Jiangtu landed on the orange-red ground of the Gobi Valley, horrifying noises immediately came from both sides of the walls. Stone faces appeared on the walls one after another, becoming more and more solid. Eventually, their entire heads broke free from the walls …
Mo Fan subconsciously opened his mouth wide when he saw the astonishing sight. He could easily tell how many Earth Elementals there were in the valley just by looking at the huge heads on the walls …
"These are the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons of the Earth Elementals. Each of them is as strong as a Little Warrior-level Demon. They are not fond of moonlight. We were initially thinking of using the moonlight to attack them, but the valley is too narrow. On top of that, we're in the Southern Hemisphere, so it's difficult for the moonlight to reach the valley. No wonder there are so many Forbidden Moon Rock Demons here, "Jiang Yu was a demon maniac. He immediately explained to Mo Fan, who was clueless about the situation.
"Quick, adjust the frequency and rotate it to the corresponding location!" Nan Jue blurted out to Ai Jiangtu when she saw the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons were about to wake up.
Ai Jiangtu's expression darkened when he saw so many Forbidden Moon Rock Demons.
He quickly adjusted the needle to adapt the Elemental Device to the terrain, so it could transmit the Earth Wave to the first Elemental Device at the entrance of the valley.
"Holy crap, is this thing even working …" said Zu Jiming.
Half of the Forbidden Moon Rock Demons had already broken free from the walls, yet the Elemental Device had yet to activate. The group began to consider retreating when they realized that the device was not as simple as it sounded.
"It's turning green!"
Ai Jiangtu finally yelled.
