Chapter 782 Departure, the Boundless Desert

The two stayed in the Crimson Flame Plains for a few days to replenish their prey before heading deeper into the plains.

The once boundless Crimson Plains have long since become a snowfield.

However, deep within this snowfield, it was as if a great being had drawn a clear boundary with a green pen.

On one side, it was a vast expanse of white; on the other, it was a dazzling golden hue. From a distance, the boundary was clearly defined.

Wu Yue and her companion, who had been traveling leisurely for a long time, were stunned by the scenery in the distance.

"It really feels like it's been cut in two; there are two different climates in one place. It's amazing."

Yuan Lang didn't speak, but he was clearly shocked by the fantastical scene before him.

As the distance closed, the place that seemed to be cut apart by a green line lost some of its fantastical quality.

Where the golden desert meets the white snowfield, there exists a green lifeline.

Perhaps it was because of the nourishment from the snowmelt that it grew so vigorously.

Ta Yun paused on the green grass, occasionally lowering his head to nibble on the rare blades of grass.

Wu Yue and the other looked out at the vast desert ahead: "It looks like a very hot place, but the temperature is no higher than that of the snowfield."

"Should we go in? Without someone familiar with the terrain to lead us, we're afraid we'll get lost inside."

Yuan Lang frowned slightly.

Without a familiar guide or a map of this golden territory, and more importantly, with everything looking the same, it would be difficult to even find one's way once inside.

"Host, a life without adventure is incomplete."

Go if you want to, I support you completely.

The system popped up at just the right time.

He chuckled and pulled out a tattered animal hide that looked like it had been passed down for dozens of generations from behind him: "Master, I can give you a map of the boundless desert at a rock-bottom price. It not only contains all the terrain and landform information and the location and information of the tribes, but also provides real-time navigation."

For just 100 points, trust me, you won't lose out or be cheated.

In modern society, even a mobile phone costs more than that, don't you think?

After saying that, it looked at its host with an expectant expression, its eyes full of sincere little stars.

Wu Yue's eyes lit up upon hearing this. For her, who now possessed a large number of points, spending 100 points to buy a navigation device was a piece of cake.

Without further ado, he waved his hand and sent 100 points: "Changed, changed, remember to get it set up properly for me."

Upon hearing the pleasant sound of points being credited to my account, the system immediately switched to professional mode.

After changing into a professional technician's outfit, I started working on DingTalk with its banging sound.

In just a moment, he wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead, grinned, and said, "Dear host, the system map has been installed. You can access and view it from the system panel at any time to locate it."

He then respectfully handed her the old, almost weathered animal hide: "This animal hide map can be used as an external map. Have a pleasant journey."

For any questions regarding usage, please feel free to contact Xiaotong. I will be happy to assist you, and my phone is available 24/7.

After dismissing the obsequious servant, Wu Yue took out an animal hide and handed it to Yuan Lang: "Here, a map of the boundless desert."

The orc raised an eyebrow, knowing it was that little female's amazing ability again. He smiled, took it, and carefully unfolded it.

The next second, he pointed in surprise to a small red arrow on the map that was trembling from time to time: "This is..."

Wu Yue peeked over and saw the familiar cursor-like arrow. She laughed and said, "This is our current location. We can see our current location on the map at any time, so we don't have to worry about getting lost in this desert."

As she spoke, she quickly took a few steps away from Yuan Lang and walked to the side.

As Yuan Lang was looking at the map, he noticed that as Yue left, a new arrow appeared where there had only been one moving arrow, and its trajectory was exactly in the direction Yue had left.

The cursor representing him remained in its original position without moving.

This animal skin scroll called a map is simply a divine object.

With the most important problem solved, the two rested for a day on this lifeline at the border before entering the cold yet intensely hot boundless desert.

In the boundless desert during winter, the golden sand that used to be scalding hot now seems to have absorbed all the cold air, making it piercing to the touch.

Scattered across the vast, boundless golden sands are oases of all sizes.

In the heart of the oasis lived one of the more powerful tribes in this boundless desert.

In the sand dunes not far from the oasis lived some smaller and weaker tribes.

They dug caves large enough to live in under the undulating dunes, and the blood of a scorpion-like beast that lived in the desert was used to solidify the shape of the sand grains.

The stronger the scorpion beast, the longer the sand pit it creates will remain solid.

However, despite their powerful reproductive ability and large numbers, these scorpion beasts seem to have difficulty improving their strength.

To date, only a few tribes in the major oases possess sand pits formed from the blood of gold-tier scorpion beasts.

It is said that it was passed down from their great-great-great-grandfather, and only the great shaman is qualified to live there.

At this moment, Wu Yue and Yuan Lang were sitting cross-legged in a slightly narrow sand pit, chewing on dried insect-killing jerky, listening intently to the old shaman opposite them talking about the boundless desert.

To find out why the two were here, we need to go back three days.

The two wandered around the desert, and guided by a tattered map, they finally arrived near a small oasis.

He was just about to take out a few bags of salt from his spatial storage and hang them on Ta Xue to disguise himself as a small trading team.

Before the two could even get their gear ready, they heard howls coming from behind the sand dunes ahead, as if orcs were hunting.

And the sound was rapidly approaching them.

Wu Yue only had time to make Ta Yun shrink his body and crawl into the backpack beside him before a fat, ferocious worm, as thick as an orc's waist, darted out from behind the sand dune.

The deep yellow worm was covered with a layer of scales. Sensing the presence of the two people in front of it, it opened its previously closed mouth and let out a threatening roar.

Wu Yue felt her sanity plummeting. She desperately wanted to ask how the other person's fist-sized mouth could split into eight pieces and be filled with sharp teeth in the instant of roaring.

Seeing her pale face and frightened expression, Yuan Lang's eyes suddenly turned cold.

The tall figure shielded the small female behind him, took off the black bracelet from his wrist and threw it away: "Go, get to work."

The black ring that was thrown hit the worm's open mouth, making two bouncy "duang~duang~" sounds.

Then, after seeing the scene clearly, the bracelet straightened up completely.

Suddenly transforming into its complete form, it instantly unleashed a deadly entanglement upon its opponent, especially its eight-lobed mouth, leaving no gap whatsoever.

Moments later, the fleshy worm that had been coiled around the giant snake showed no signs of life.
