Chapter 521 World Nine 31

After boarding the spirit boat, the group followed the map westward and soon arrived at the edge of the desert region.

There was little shade in the desert, and the sun was unbearably hot. The spirit stones on the spirit boat were quickly depleted in order to regulate the temperature.

But we can't do without it now. If we're already so distressed with the spirit boat, we might accidentally end up here if we try to leave on our own.

On the spirit boat, Jing Lin shook the simple map they had drawn on the spot, looking troubled.

“I think the sand dunes in the desert all look pretty much the same. If we keep searching like this, who knows when we’ll even find anything?”

“You’re underestimating us,” Yin Yin replied lazily. “The compass here is malfunctioning. If we’re not careful and get lost, after a gust of wind, you’ll find that this map is completely useless because you won’t recognize any of the places; everything will be new.”

Jinglin originally wanted to reply to her, but then realized that Yinyin was right, so he leaned back and said, "God help us find a place quickly. I've had enough of this bright sky on the spirit boat."

Fairy Lingsu and Yaoyao also nodded dejectedly in agreement.

Qi Tianyuan suddenly pushed open the window and glanced into the distance: "Perhaps your prayers have truly come true."

He gestured for the others to look out the window.

When Yinyin looked up, she saw a hurricane raging beneath a dark mass of clouds in the distance.

What's being rolled up isn't just yellow sand, but also the monsters of the desert.

"Wow," Jing Lin was dumbfounded, "This wind is too strong! That's a seventh-grade demon beast, right? It couldn't even escape the hurricane and was being tossed around inside."

Yinyin immediately stood up: "What are you still looking at? Quickly steer the spirit boat to a different direction!"

"Even a seventh-grade demonic beast can be swept up and flown through the sky, there's nothing we can do. Even with the spirit boat protecting us, how long can we hold out?"

The others finally realized what was happening and steered the spirit boat to avoid the hurricane.

But the hurricane seemed to have eyes, sweeping towards their location.

The spirit boat quickly went out of control.

Yinyin shouted, "Quickly close the door, or you'll get thrown out!"

The group immediately began casting spells to reinforce the spirit boat, but the violent shaking made it impossible for them to stand. The objects inside the house had become deadly weapons that they could avoid at all costs. They were too busy hiding to concentrate on casting spells.

Although they tried their best, the feeling of being out of control was too strong, and the spirit boat was suddenly hit by a huge impact, falling apart. The group was directly exposed to the hurricane and quickly lost consciousness.

When Yinyin woke up, she found herself lying on a tree, with fragments of the spirit boat among the leaves and branches.

Yinyin breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, she was still alive.

Yinyin carefully observed her surroundings and determined that she was in an oasis.

The oasis center is humid, but the further you go, the drier the air becomes, and the less water there is in it.

Yinyin had identified the spot and was about to jump down when a sudden feeling of unease washed over her.

She instinctively leaned back, narrowly avoiding an attack from a green shadow.

Yinyin looked closely and realized that it was a green snake with a small bump on its head.

The green snake hissed twice, looking at Yin Yin as if she were food.

Yinyin cautiously took the sword out of her storage bag, revealing a hint of cold light. She herself stood firmly in stare at the Green Snake without flinching.

After a while, the green snake, perhaps realizing how formidable she was, left on its own.

Yin Yin breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did she have time to pick and choose from her storage bag, finally selecting an eggshell shield that had been forgotten in a corner.

As soon as the eggshell shield was activated, an ice-blue barrier immediately formed around Yin Yin, enveloping her completely. If she were to encounter that snake again, Yin Yin wouldn't even need to dodge.

Actually, this thing isn't called Eggshell Shield; its name is extremely long and hard to remember. It's an experimental product from Senior Brother Jingyue.

However, because this thing is so conspicuous in the sunlight after the barrier is opened, it is too useless, and Yin Yin has not used it for a long time since she grew up.

Of course, it was quite popular when it was first built.

After all, only by putting on this thing could her two senior brothers feel at ease taking her out hunting, without worrying that they might accidentally run too far while chasing prey and have their sweet and soft three-headed junior sister stolen by a daring monster and turned into a meal.

Yinyin activated her free-roaming mode after using the eggshell shield, and soon encountered Jinglin, who had also woken up.

"Wow, amazing, Senior Sister!" Jing Lin's eyes were practically glued to the eggshell shield. "How come you even have this? I remember this thing is quite expensive to make and sells for a lot of money in the Spirit Weapon Hall."

"Usually only children from wealthy families have these; this is the first time I've ever seen one in person."

Yinyin rarely leaves the sect and had no idea that this thing was so expensive.

“When I was a child, my senior classmates took me out to play. They were worried about me, so they gave this to me specially.”

Jing Lin was jealous: "Senior Sister, I'm just saying, can't you really have another junior brother like me?"

"I don't ask for much. I just want my senior brothers and sisters to dote on me like this, and to just dump all the ridiculously expensive items from the Spirit Weapon Hall into my storage bag."

“It’s broad daylight, it’s not the right time yet,” Yin Yin said. “Otherwise, you can get a good night’s sleep and have a dream. You can definitely have anything in your dream.”

Jinglin was upset and wanted to cry, but it was no use; Yinyin completely ignored his poor acting.

Fortunately, not long after, the two reunited with Qi Tianyuan and the other two who had already gathered together.

Both Yao Yao and Fairy Ling Su were very interested in Yin Yin's eggshell shield.

Seeing Yinyin put away the eggshell shield, Yaoyao asked Qi Tianyuan, "Where's yours? I've never seen you take it out and use it before?"

“I don’t have it,” Qi Tianyuan said. “Only Junior Sister has this in the entire sect.”

The real reason is that Yin Yin has always been the youngest in the sect, so naturally she was the first to be given these protective measures.

When Qi Tianyuan first arrived at the sect, he almost single-handedly isolated everyone except his master, so naturally he wouldn't go out with Xuan Guang and the other two.

Later, when his relationship with Yin Yin and the others improved, and his cultivation level also increased, he no longer needed this thing.

Besides, he's a good cook, so all he has to do is help prepare the food. He doesn't need to find the ingredients himself, so it's perfectly normal that he doesn't have this eggshell shield.

Yao Yao, lost in her own thoughts, looked at Qi Tianyuan with a hint of pity.

Qi Tianyuan didn't feel there was anything to pity about. This thing was so conspicuous. It was already big when he entered the sect. It would be strange if he still needed to use it.

He subtly changed the subject: "I remember the map we found showed that the treasure was hidden in an oasis, but I don't know if it's here."
