"Our supplies are running low. If we can't find any more resources, some of us will definitely starve or die of thirst. This damned Ruins is so barren that we can't even grow food. The vast lands we see are all just wasteland. Only in settlements can we grow crops. We must find a way to establish a settlement and develop. Otherwise, we'll just have to keep wandering. It's just too hard to survive."

The scarred man was named Liang Hongguang, the tall, thin man was named Tian Buqi, and the fat woman was named Pang Yan.

Among the three, Liang Hongguang was the leader, Pang Yan was the second, and Tian Buqi was the third, and they pulled together the group of wanderers in front of them.

"Indeed, we can't keep wandering forever, but the Land of the Flame isn't so easy to find. Before it's activated, it's said that it only emits strange light on the day of the month's transition. At that time, only those who are close can get there. If you're far away, it will either be occupied by someone else or you won't be able to get there in time. It will hide before it's activated. The Seed of the Flame is constantly moving."

Tian Buqi said with some emotion.

"If we can't find the Land of the Flame, it would be even better if we could get the Heart of Miracles. That would be a better choice than the Land of the Flame. With the Heart of Miracles, we can build a real home for ourselves. I'm so fed up with this nomadic life. Even if we don't have the Heart of Miracles, we can find wonders or marvels. We can settle down no matter what."

Pang Yan's chubby face twitched slightly, revealing a longing expression.

"These wondrous objects can only be born within the Primordial Land, which was formed when external objects fell into the Ruins of Return. According to many people's speculation, the Ruins of Return within the Primordial Land merged with fragments of the external world, causing corresponding collisions in the laws, which gave birth to the miraculous power. It is the collision and fusion of laws and rules that allows the Primordial Land to undergo the most magical changes, giving it the opportunity to nurture wondrous treasures and rare gems. They can no longer be born outside the Primordial Land, which is why they are called wondrous treasures and rare gems."

Liang Hongguang also looked at the starting point with an envious gaze.

"Yes, when I talked to the Purple Scorpion Wandering Camp before, they mentioned that someone obtained a top-level skin-refining technique in the Initial Land. It was born entirely within the Initial Land, and there are no restrictions on its cultivation. It is a Heaven-rank technique, and it is also a classic among classics, manuals, techniques, and methods. It is a top-level technique that can be cultivated all the way to condense the Skin Dao Fruit. It is the path to becoming a Skin Demon King."

Pang Yan said with a hint of envy.

"Sister Pang, you're following the path of flesh refining, which is to condense the flesh Vajra Dao Fruit. If there really was a top-level skin refining technique, would you know how to cultivate it?"

Tian Buqi said jokingly.

"Practice? Why wouldn't I practice? My main cultivation technique for flesh is just a Xuan-rank technique called 'Wild Boar Earth-Shaking Fist.' If I had a top-tier skin-refining technique, only a fool wouldn't practice it. Anyway, for all realms like skin refining, flesh refining, and bone refining, you can choose one to cultivate, and you can choose any path to cultivate. If you succeed in cultivation, you'll all develop a Black Iron Membrane, and you'll all be at the Black Iron level. The competition is still about your own strength. Although choosing multiple paths can lead to cultivating multiple layers of Black Membrane, taking a single path can also give you a chance to reach the heavens. Only a fool wouldn't practice a technique that can lead to the heavens."

Pang Yan grinned and said disdainfully.

This is not a multiple-choice question; it is a mandatory question.

"The time for the initial land to merge varies, but it will definitely not exceed a month. If it is short, it will be over in a day or two. Everyone, find a place to set up camp first and keep a close eye on the situation inside the initial land. Once the restriction is lifted, we will go in and see if we can scavenge some essential supplies and obtain some opportunities."

Liang Hongguang made a decision immediately.

give an order.

Finding the starting point is no easy feat.

The opportunity is right in front of you; it would be foolish not to seize it.

Moreover, given enough time, other wandering groups might discover this place.

The team members were all excited about the decision to temporarily set up camp. Once the initial area was free of restrictions, it would become a carnival, and only by exploring the initial area could they obtain various rare resources.

For example, food, drinks, food, water, and daily necessities.

For a nomadic camp, they were desperately short of resources.

Their eyes shone as they looked towards the starting point.

In the beginning, all opportunities and creations existed.

Inside the hotel.

Due to the catastrophic fall into the sinkhole, it was nighttime when they crashed. Although nighttime on Earth doesn't necessarily mean nighttime in the Guixu (Netherworld), the people inside the hotel were completely oblivious to this. They were told to sleep and rest. Outside, a dense fog obscured all light; day or night was irrelevant.

However, many people did not sleep well that night.

After all, this was a fall into a sinkhole, being in an unknown place, and having just come into contact with the extraordinary—the Void Returning Watch, the personal panel, and innate abilities. All of this had already stirred up unrest among the people in the hotel.

Many people stayed up all night.

Everyone is making the most of their time to study their newly acquired power and personally experience the power of their talent.

Just as the hotel was becoming quiet.

The fog outside grew even thicker.

Shhh! Shhh!

In the mist, strange sounds could be heard, as if something was crawling on the ground. It also sounded like some kind of wind. The guards on the first floor of the hotel were frequently startled, their expressions showing tension.

They were afraid something might rush in from outside.

The hotel's glass doors and walls couldn't withstand a strong attack.

"Notify the hotel guests that breakfast will be served promptly at 7:00 AM. Restaurants A, B, and C will all be open until 8:30 AM." In the lobby on the first floor, Cai Honglong raised his wrist and glanced at the Guixu wristwatch.

The Guixu watch is amazing; it displays your personal dashboard and allows you to monitor your personal information in real time.

Furthermore, it can display the time.

For example, right now, you can see that the watch shows 6:30, and the timekeeping method is also in 24-hour format. This will not be confused by any method, and you can clearly know your own time. Everyone's time is accurate.

Soon, hotel staff were using walkie-talkies to relay messages and knocking on doors to notify guests to come downstairs for dinner. The hotel was out of power. Although there were reserve generators, they wouldn't be used unless absolutely necessary. This wasn't a regular power outage; they couldn't find a way to store electricity, and starting generators wouldn't last long. The fuel used for generators was limited and couldn't be wasted.

Fortunately, the hotel has walkie-talkies, which allow for communication; otherwise, how could such a large hotel be properly monitored?

A knock on the door was heard.

Ji Tianhao also stepped out of the room and saw the Thousand-Faced Fox also coming out of the door.

"How's your research on the Guixu watch going? Have you made any progress?"

The Thousand-Faced Fox didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly.

"No, what can you learn in one night? The basic functions of the watch are all the same. It can only display personal attributes and has no other functions. It's not like in the game where you can increase your proficiency through practice, but you can see your progress directly. Last night and this morning, I practiced the Five Animal Frolics a few times, and my proficiency in the later stages of the Five Animal Frolics increased a little. After that, I also felt that my understanding and comprehension of the Five Animal Frolics had improved further."

Ji Tianhao spoke.

As I said before, being able to directly see one's own progress is already a tremendous blessing, comparable to the reward of hard work, and an opportunity that many people dream of.

In short, the Guixu Watch is a special mark that everyone has, and it is a gift from Guixu. So no matter what, it can't really be simple. I always feel that the Guixu Watch is incredibly mysterious and far more complex than it appears on the surface.

"I've tried it too, and I can definitely see my own progress directly. As for Guixu, I don't know what kind of place it is or what our future will be like."

The Thousand-Faced Fox nodded and said.

"By the way, what's your name? We're practically comrades now, so I can't keep calling you Thousand-Faced Fox."

As Ji Tianhao walked down to the restaurant, he asked the question.

"My name is Hu Youni."

The Thousand-Faced Fox paused for a moment before finally speaking.

Now that we're already here, there's no need to keep our names a secret.

"You're kidding me!!"

Ji Tianhao glanced at the Thousand-Faced Fox with a mocking expression.

"Hmph, what's so funny? Call me whatever you want, or call me Thousand-Faced Fox."

"The Thousand-Faced Fox said with a displeased expression."

She knew that telling her real name would definitely be ridiculed, but her name was given to her by her parents, and there was no way to change that. Anyway, she had already been mentally prepared since she was a child, so she wasn't afraid of these jokes.

As he spoke, he walked downstairs.

Although they lived on the 18th floor, an ordinary person would be panting heavily after climbing up and down, but when they arrived downstairs, their breathing remained stable and there was nothing unusual.

"Gentlemen, breakfast is ready at the restaurant. You can choose any restaurant to dine at. The food is the same in all the restaurants. Restaurant A is in the east, Restaurant B is in the north, and Restaurant C is in the west."

The hotel's power supply remains operational on the first floor; the hotel's generators are designed to ensure this situation is handled correctly.

Last night, candles were distributed for lighting inside the hotel.

Soon, the two arrived at Restaurant B.

The restaurant was gradually filling with people. Some were alone, while others were with their families.

Because it's a rationing system, each person in the restaurant can choose one main dish, such as noodles, porridge, vermicelli, or steamed buns. The ration is based on the quantity, not the type of dish, and each person's quota is one jin (500 grams).

You can be less than a pound, but you cannot exceed a pound.

Each person can choose freely, and after selection, the weight will be weighed directly.

Ensure relative fairness.

Ji Tianhao chose a bowl of bibimbap, a basket of steamed buns, two fried dough sticks, and two eggs.
