Limitless Treasure?

The mortality rate for those who have been sent to the Lost Grand Canyon is not 100%, largely due to the well-intentioned reminders given by the elders who brought them there.

Without the Subduing Demon Douluo's reminder, how would Wu Qi and his companions know which direction the Oasis was?

If they miss it, they might end up at another end of the Lost Land, eventually having to turn back and continue their search.

After a while, anyone would get lost.

It was precisely because of the elders' kind reminders that the Trialist avoided many detours, which increased their survival rate.

As they approached the entrance to the Lost Grand Canyon, the Subduing Demon Douluo said one last thing, "If you get lost, don't even think about using your flying ability to leave the Lost Grand Canyon."

The sand and dust were so thick that it was impossible to see the road ahead, especially in the air, making it easier to lose one's way.

Without directional guidance, Soul Master cannot maintain a single direction while flying; they will only sink deeper and deeper.

Moreover, Soul Master below the Titled Douluo have limited flight altitude and cannot exceed the height of the clouds. Only Titled Douluo can fly to the extreme altitude and rely on their flight ability to leave the Lost Grand Canyon.

It can be said that once trapped inside, only those who break through to the Titled Douluo will have a chance to escape.

Even if those Exiles manage to snatch the Trialist ' Gold Token, they might still not be able to find their way out.

Because Wu Qi possessed a flying Martial Soul, the Subduing Demon Douluo spoke these words out of turn.

Of course, given Wu Qi's knowledge and understanding, he would surely be able to understand.

The first half of the Lost Grand Canyon is a cracked surface, more like a large rift valley.

The area was guarded by many powerful figures from the Spirit Hall. Upon seeing the Subduing Demon Douluo, the middle-aged man at the head of the group took the initiative to greet him.

"How lively! I never imagined that one day, geniuses would come here one after another to hone their skills."

The Subduing Demon Douluo said calmly, "Golden Blade Soul Douluo, I'm entrusting these people to you. Don't treat them like Exiles, and definitely don't take them to the Lost Land. They are key figures Worship Hall!"

The Exiles weren't fools; if they weren't led deeper into the wilderness, they would surely sneak back under the cover of night.

The Spirit Hall experts who work here year-round are naturally familiar with the internal layout. If they mistook Wu Qi and his group for Exiles, they could very well get lost.

Golden Blade Soul Douluo patted his chest and laughed, "I know what to do, Master, please rest assured."

Before leaving, Subduing Demon Douluo looked at Wu Qi and the others and smiled, "Go on, my brothers and I will wait for you to return in the Worship Hall."

Led by the Golden Blade Soul Douluo, Wu Qi and his two companions descended into the rift valley.

This is the real Lost Grand Canyon. The sandstorms in the rift are so strong that they blind people.

Golden Blade Soul Douluo led the way, laughing loudly as he said, "The Lost Land was originally the capital of an Ancient Kingdom. Because it angered the gods, Meteorite fell and buried the entire Kingdom in the sand. From then on, this place became a barren land."

"If you're lucky enough to stumble upon the ruins of a former Royal Palace, all the treasures inside will be yours."

Wu Qi frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly do you intend to achieve by saying all this?"

Golden Blade Soul Douluo shrugged and casually said, "It was just a friendly reminder."

After saying that, he fell silent.

Before long, the group emerged from the rift valley and were greeted by an endless desert.

The frequent gusts of wind whipped up clouds of dust, severely obstructing visibility.

The Golden Blade Soul Douluo stopped and laughed, "I'll take you this far."

"Next, you can go inside on your own, obtain the Sand Mandala, and then return here. I will personally escort you away."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Watching his figure recede into the distance, Qiangu Changkong finally asked, "Wu Ge, why didn't you let him continue? That's the Royal Palace, a treasure trove indeed."

Wu Qi sneered, "It's not that simple."

Before setting off, he used his access privileges in the Spirit Hall's Library Pavilion to peruse a great deal of information about the Lost Land.

The earliest record of the Kingdom in this place dates back tens of thousands of years, which happened to be the years when the Spirit Hall was officially established.

At that time, the Spirit Hall possessed Deity — the Angel God.

The so-called Divine Punishment is what the Angel God bring down.

Due to the passage of time, information about this place is very vague.

Some say that the king of this place committed an act that angered both heaven and man, causing turmoil in the Spirit Master world and leading to Divine Punishment from the Angel God.

Some records also say that this place was once Kingdom established by Evil Spirit Master. In order to uphold justice and to prevent the Evil Spirit Master' cultivation methods from spreading, the Angel God buried it completely.

"Regardless of the version, this place is unclean. Even if there are treasures, they're most likely related to Evil Spirit Master. Even if they aren't, after tens of thousands of years, buried in the sand, any treasures would be rendered useless!"

"Let me ask you again, if they knew there was treasure here, were the successive Pope of the Spirit Hall fools? Wouldn't they have sent people to dig it up?"

With the destructive power of Titled Douluo, once the Kingdom is located, the location of the treasure vault can be easily found.

The treasure has probably already been taken!

Even if they weren't taken, a treasure that even Titled Douluo couldn't take away—could they possibly take it?

The Golden Blade Soul Douluo was clearly mocking them by saying that!

They even wanted to incite their greed, only to be buried in this sea of sand.

Upon hearing this, Qiangu Changkong was filled with indignation. "This guy really is a lackey of the Papal Hall, he can't wait for us to die here!"

Wu Qi disagreed. "His statement precisely demonstrates that the treasure remains buried beneath this desert, undiscovered by anyone for tens of thousands of years."

"Regarding the treasure, just keep an eye on it, but it's not our training objective, so don't be too fixated on it."

"It would be best if we met, but there's no loss if we don't."

The Qiangu Changkong remained silent. "Wu Ge, didn't you say there would be danger?"

Wu Qi shrugged. "Wouldn't it be stupid not to take it if I encountered it? Besides, have you forgotten my Soul Skill?"

If necessary, he could control the Exiles to retrieve the treasure, and even if they encountered danger, they would be in a safe place and would not be affected.

Before setting off, Wu Qi made his own Compass. Since there was no magnetic field interference in this area, the Compass worked normally.

According to the Subduing Demon Douluo, they were heading west.

In the desert, the weather is hot and dry, making it very easy for the body to become dehydrated.

Seeing Chen Ping and Qiangu Changkong gulping down water, Wu Qi couldn't help but remind them, "We don't know how long we'll be walking, so drink your water sparingly, or we'll die of thirst here."

Of course, things aren't always absolute. If you dig deep underground, you'll eventually find groundwater; it's just a matter of how deep you have to dig.

To conserve physical and mental energy, it's best not to go that far.

Panting heavily, Qiangu Changkong said, "Wu Ge, if this place is not suitable for survival, wouldn't all the Exiles die here?"

"I estimate that although the environment here is harsh, there must still be a source of food."
