The entire Spirit-Seizing Land was shaped like an elliptical spindle, with the Cloud Map Tribe and Fire Radiance Tribe each occupying half. Passing through the Fire Radiance Tribe, you could see the Fire Radiance Dunes.
The Fire Radiance Dunes soared about three hundred zhang high, with scorching golden sands cascading down their slopes!
You could scarcely make out the edge; everywhere you looked, it was nothing but yellow sand.
Above the sand, waves of blistering heat radiated, and the air shimred with the sheer intensity of the temperature.
"Senior Brother Long, we’ve been here before and tried to climb it, but it’s completely impossible—the heat is way too much."
Yu Lingfei stared at the searing heat inside the Fire Radiance Dunes, her elegant brows knitting together deeply.
After that incident, her heart had sunk to rock bottom.
She had no desire to end up as one of those mummies; her true ambition was to beco a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator. Yet, to her disbelief, a single misstep had landed her in this hellish place.
"Is this really how my life ends—trapped here forever?"
Zhuo Yijian looked at the Fire Radiance Dunes, his brows deeply furrowed, eyes brimming with despair.
Right now, Zhuo Yijian was seething with regret.
They’d thought that Concealing Array would be a major opportunity. Who could have guessed it would strand them in this barren wasteland instead?
"Vajra Bright King Body!"
Lin Chang’sheng fixed his gaze on the scorching dunes swirling with yellow sand. He activated his Vajra Bright King Body and strode cautiously forward.
Boom~!
A terrifying wave of searing heat engulfed Lin Chang’sheng as he continuously channeled the Vajra Bright King Body, resisting the fiery onslaught.
As Lin Chang’sheng walked toward the Fire Radiance Dunes, Zhuo Yijian, Yu Lingfei, Fu Qingyu, and the others all watched him without blinking.
"God damn! The temperature’s off the charts—can’t hold it, can’t hold it!"
Lin Chang’sheng had managed to walk a little over twenty zhang before he felt his whole body roasting in agony, his mind starting to reel. Not daring to go further, he leapt backward and hurriedly retreated.
He had this gut feeling that if he kept moving forward, he’d end up cooked alive—eting the sa fate as those mummies inside the Fire Radiance Tribe.
"No wonder those people turned into mummies. It must’ve been because they refused to stay trapped here and forced themselves to climb the dunes!"
"The temperature’s just too brutal. Forget about crossing the Fire Radiance Dunes—even going thirty zhang forward feels utterly impossible!"
Staring at the sand dunes, Lin Chang’sheng’s heart bottod out.
His physical strength matched a Foundation Establishnt Fifth Layer cultivator, and even he could only hold out for roughly twenty zhang before it beca unbearable. As for those cultivators without magical power, forcing their way in, unable to move forward or back, they’d eventually dry up and beco those mummies.
"Let’s check out the sides!"
Unwilling to give in, Lin Chang’sheng eyed the dunes and walked along the edge of the Fire Radiance Dunes. As he pressed on, he realized the dunes stretched endlessly—he’d walked this far and was still surrounded by yellow sand and blistering heat.
In the end, the Fire Radiance Hill and the boundless sea ford a dividing line between yin and yang. Blazing heat and seawater collided, sending plus of mist into the air, while a thick layer of sea salt accumulated at their border!
"Looks like there’s no way out."
Lin Chang’sheng stared at the endless yellow sand, desperate, muttering to himself. "Could it be that the top Golden Core of the Southern Domain Cultivation Realm, Jiang Yukun, and the Jiang Yukun who supposedly escaped from here, aren’t actually the sa person?"
The more he considered that possibility, the deeper his despair grew.
"No—I’ve got to go check out that island!"
A flicker flashed through Lin Chang’sheng’s eyes as he resolved inwardly.
He rembered that the Jiang Yukun in here had once traveled to an island a thousand li away—after returning, he entered the Fire Radiance Dunes and no one ever discovered his mummy.
Very likely, he truly escaped this place!
This was Lin Chang’sheng’s last hope.
"Even Senior Brother Long has no other ideas..."
Yu Lingfei, Zhuo Yijian, and the others trailed behind Lin Chang’sheng. Seeing how grim he looked, they exchanged helpless glances, faces filled with despair.
Lin Chang’sheng imdiately turned around. He needed to head back and prepare to set out for that distant island tomorrow.
Of course, before leaving, he needed to check with Xuan Feng and Tu Mu to clarify the island’s location.
The nine of them walked back along the coastline, each one exhausted and spent, their bodies almost limp. Only Lin Chang’sheng was still brimming with energy—his physical power rivaled a Foundation Establishnt Fifth Layer cultivator, after all.
[Celestial Array of Earth Fire Heaven-Burning Spirit Locking: Entry Level!]
As Lin Chang’sheng’s group retraced their path, it wasn’t long before they reached the spot where he had ventured deepest into the Fire Radiance Dunes. Suddenly, a red prompt popped up on his panel!
"Hmm?"
"Celestial Array of Earth Fire Heaven-Burning Spirit Locking? The Fire Radiance Dunes are actually an array?"
Seeing the prompt on his panel, Lin Chang’sheng’s eyes lit up with surprise and delight.
If it’s an array, that ans there’s a Life Sect.
That ans there’s a way out.
[Celestial Array of Earth Fire Heaven-Burning Spirit Locking detected. You may simplify it by spending 3,000 Spirit Stones. Simplify?]
Just then, another red prompt popped up on Lin Chang’sheng’s panel.
"Three thousand Spirit Stones?!"
Staring at the red prompt, Chang’sheng’s eyes narrowed. Counting up the Spirit Stones he’d found in the storage bags of these cultivators, he had sixty or seventy thousand in total. Three thousand was definitely doable.
Still, with Zhuo Yijian, Zhang Aoxue, Yu Lingfei, and the others all around right now, there was no way he could simplify the array here!
"Everyone, let’s head back."
Lin Chang’sheng swept a look at Yu Lingfei and the rest, his tone deep.
He needed to go back first in order to simplify the Celestial Array of Earth Fire Heaven-Burning Spirit Locking.
"Alright."
Zhuo Yijian, Yu Lingfei, Fu Qingyu, Zhang Aoxue, and the rest all cupped their fists at Lin Chang’sheng and left dejected and spiritless.
Lin Chang’sheng headed for the Yuan Tu Tribe as well.
"Simplify!"
Once everyone had left, Lin Chang’sheng swept his Divine Sense over the storage bag, took out three thousand Spirit Stones, and tapped "Confirm" on his panel.
