The scarlet sun lowered into the mountains of sand and slowly disappeared.

Nightfall was coming.

The group kept close together and slowed down their pace. As of now, preserving their lives was of importance above all else.

“Elder Shixiong, why don’t you just send for an aircraft to deliver food and drinks for me? I am parched and famished. I’m exhausted.”

Wang Mengyu pursed her cracked lips. Her mouth was dry as the dust beneath her feet.

“Is the thirst getting to your brain? Why don’t you take your phone out and see if there’s any signal?” Zhou Xiaokun sounded miffed. “Do you think we’d want to torture ourselves like this if we knew airdrops was possible from the beginning? We would already have had the planes drop us off at our destination!”

Wang Mengyu took out her phone and exclaimed, “God, it’s true! There’s no signal at all! Even the GPS is unresponsive!”

Ding Ding’ao explained, “The Black Desert contains a special magnetic field that jams all electronic devices. There were people who tried to get there by planes before. The entire crew crashed and not a single soul made it back! They couldn’t even locate the black box!”

“My god! They couldn’t find the black box?!” Wang Mengyu inhaled sharply.

The black box of an aircraft is designed especially for tracking. In event of an aviation accidents, the black box transmits a strong beacon that is used to find the remains of the aircraft.

If even the signals of these black boxes could be interfered with, the magnetic fields of the Black Desert must be extremely terrifying!

“If we can’t use airplanes and we can’t get any water, will we die?”

Wang Mengyu looked like she was about to burst into tears.

“Stop saying such pessimistive things!” Zhou Xiaokun scolded. “Once we arrive in the Black Desert, we’ll be able to find an ancient city. If we’re lucky, we’ll be able to find water by first light!”

“May God protect us. Help us find water… I don’t want to die!”

Wang Mengyu clasped her hands in prayer.

Right now, there were only two options: Find water quickly or die of thirst!

There was nothing else Wang Mengyu could do beside praying at this point.

“Look at them!” Ding Ding’ao said begrudgingly. “Look at those two mother*ckers! Why do they still look perfectly fine? Here we are dying of thirst, but the both of them don’t even look thirsty at all! Look at their lips! Plump and moist! There’s something fishy going on here!”

Wang Mengyu flinched when Ding Ding’ao used those vulgar terms to speak of Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti. Chen Xiaobei had saved her from death and she was extremely indebted for that.

But Ding Ding’ao lost an arm. Wang Mengyu was in no place to say anything, so she kept her displeasure to herself.

But in the midst of her silence, she overheard a shocking secret!

Zhou Xiaokun muttered under his breath, “Let’s not do anything to provoke the mother*ckers just yet! There might be another Crimson Crowned Snake later tonight! It’s not too late to teach them a lesson after we find our water supply!”

“Mm.” Ding Ding’ao nodded and suppressed the rage brewing in his heart.

Wang Mengyu was surprised at the conversation. She thought that Elder Shixiong had already approbated Chen Xiaobei. She did not expect him to be still holding a grudge and plotting revenge against Chen Xiaobei!

She found herself extremely troubled and in a dilemma. Elder Shixiong was someone that she deeply loved and admired on one hand, but on the other was Chen Xiaobei who had delivered her from death!

Should she report this to Chen Xiaobei?

Wang Mengyu found herself in a pickle. She was oblivious of the fact that Chen Xiaobei never once trusted Zhou Xiaokun and keep his caution around that man.

Midnight dawned not long after, and so did a swarm of Crimson Crowned Snakes.

Since everyone was on a hypervigilant mode, they did discover the snakes beforehand.

About a dozen of Crimson Crowned Snakes were killed with a blow to the head. Not a single one of them were hurt during the process.

Besides these snakes, there were no other threats posed that night.

As the sky began to slowly brighten, the whole expedition team’s spirits were raised.

“We’re here! This is the place marked in the map! We did it!” Zhou Xiaokun was practically jumping. “This is the closest that men has ever set foot on the Black Desert! We just need to go a little bit further to break record and create history!”

The group were excited but were too weak to cheer with him.

“Elder Shixiong, we better get to a water source first. Our disciples cannot hold on any longer,” said Zhuo Qunfeng.

Since noon yesterday, the journey had been ardous and torturous. Even if their cultivations were not exactly weak, but without water they would tire out very quickly!

“Alright! Everyone just hang on for a little longer! Let’s more forward! Remember that there were once 36 kingdoms in the Black Desert. We only need to find one to find water! Follow me! Let’s go!”

Zhou Xiaokun raised his hand and led the troop forward.

As the sun rose, the temperature in the desert surged.

Dehydration symptoms were worsening amongst the group.

It was only because they were all cultivators, whose bodies were stronger than that of common men were able to persevere this far.

Otherwise, they would have already been drained completely and passed out.

“Xiaobei, why don’t we give them some water?” Luo Puti whispered as she could not bear watching them continuing to suffer.

It was a fairly easy task for Chen Xiaobei to obtain water.

In his Infinite Space Ring itself, there were large cartons of bottled water, sufficient to quench the thirst of everyone in the group.

“I’m afraid that’s not possible!” Chen Xiaobei shook his head. “Men are greedy by nature. If they ever find out that I have the Infinite Space Ring, Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding’ao will not hesitate to kill me for my treasures!”

“…”

Luo Puti had nothing to say in return.

At that very moment, they were at an extremely alarming state of water shortage. Soon, there would be food shortage too. If they ever found out about Chen Xiaobei’s supplies, not only would Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding’ao plot against him but the other disciples too out of desperation to get it for themselves!

Besides, both Zhou Xiaokun and Ding Ding’ao’s combat powers were 130,000; so much higher than Chen Xiaobei’s.

Chen Xiaobei would certainly be at the losing end should any conflict be raised at this point of time.

“I understand that, but we can’t just watch them die of thirst.”

Luo Puti’s forehead creased.

“You don’t have to worry about that. If they listen to my instructions, I can help them find a water source very quickly.”

“Really?” Luo Puti looked pleasantly surprised. “So you discovered something?”

Chen Xiaobei nodded. “Didn’t you say that the Black Desert used to be home to 36 kingdoms? And because of a catastrophic sandstorm, they were all buried under the sand?”

“Yeah! That’s what’s recorded in the history books.” Luo Puti nodded. “Does that have anything to do with your discovery?”

“Of course!” Chen Xiaobei squinted. “Look right ahead! I’m seeing an abundance of Yin Qi! I’m afraid the spirits of the 36 kingdoms have all turned evil and buried underground! This means that the Black Desert is just right ahead somewhere! The spots where the Yin Qi is the most should be where the ancient ruins are!”
