Chapter 159 Entering the Blazing Desert
"Heavens, you really did come."
The superior deity in charge of registration previously looked at Tian Xin and still couldn't help but flash a hint of surprise on his face, smiling as he spoke.
Three days passed in a flash, and Tian Xin arrived as scheduled, gathering at the city gate.
For these three days, Tianxin did not go out and about, but instead stayed in his own small courtyard to cultivate in peace.
Because someone was watching from the side, Tianxin's movements had been very quiet for several months, and most of his time and energy were spent on cultivating his yuan Shen power.
"I said I'd come," Tianxin said with a smile.
He looked around and found that there were already twenty or so people gathered around. Apart from himself, most of the others were mid-tier demigods, with a few upper-tier demigods. All of them had an aura of strong killing intent about them, clearly seasoned veterans of hunting crystal beasts outside the city.
This strength is not bad, Tian Xin thought to herself.
Those who survived the Crystal Beast's hunt outside the city are no weaklings.
After arriving in Lieyan City for several months, Tianxin also gained a deeper understanding of the cultivation world. Due to limited time, Longyan's explanation about the cultivation world last time did not cover more detailed aspects.
"I don't know what to say to you. But your courage is beyond mine. My name is Leiting. If we can make it back alive, I'll buy you a drink." Leiting shook his head and said.
"I'm telling you this because you're here today. I won a bet on the World Cup."
"If this harvest is good, when we come back, I'll treat you to a drink." Tian Xin said with a smile.
"Haha. Not bad. Refreshing enough. I like it." Laitning laughed loudly.
"Hunting parties that go out to hunt Crystal Beasts can consider themselves lucky if half of the party's members return alive." Raitingus said with a faint smile, his words filled with deep emotion.
"So whether you invite me or I invite you, we both have to come back alive."
”
"After we leave the city, you follow behind me and I'll cover for you." Laiting patted Tianxin's shoulder and said loudly.
"Then thank you," Tianxin said.
"How much longer do we have to wait?" Tianxin asked casually.
"In one more quarter of an hour, whether the rest are here or not, we shall leave the city," said Rettung.
The appearance of Tian Xin surprised the other members of the hunting team greatly.
Lower-ranking demigods, or those who have just been promoted to lower-ranking demigods, go out of the city to hunt crystal beasts. This world seems to be too crazy, and many people can't help but secretly lament.
But seeing him and Letting being quite familiar with each other, no one said anything.
Just as the hunting squad was about to leave the city, the last upper-tier demigod finally arrived.
The entire hunting squad consists of seven upper-ranking sub-gods, twenty-two middle-ranking sub-gods and one lower-ranking sub-god.
Apart from Tian Xin, everyone else had at least one experience of going out of the city to hunt and kill Crystal Beasts.
"I am Glass, leader of this hunting party."
The personnel of the hunting team arrived, and a blue-robed upper-ranking deity stepped forward and said.
Glaucos' strength is very strong, and it's only one step away from entering the top-tier demigod, and it's possible to enter the top-tier demigod at any time.
A whole body of murderous aura, it seems to have experienced a lot of cruel killings.
Apart from Tianxin, the others were not unfamiliar with Glaucus. Some of them had even gone out of the city to hunt Crystal Beasts with Glaucus before. As a top-tier Demigod, Glaucus' reputation in Flame City was not small. After all, there were not many top-tier Demigods who went out of the city to hunt Crystal Beasts, and even if they did, they usually didn't need to form a team.
"Except for that little brother, everyone else is not a rookie, so there are some rules, I won't say more, let's just assign tasks directly."
Grace efficiently assigned tasks to each member of the hunting party, according to their respective strengths, with each person taking on a specific role in defense, attack and reconnaissance.
Tianxin cultivates fire element law, and his mission is to follow Reitingusu to launch an attack.
"Good luck. Let's get out of here."
"After assigning the task, Grass waved his hand and said."
The hunting party led by Tianxin left the city, and Heduo's group followed closely behind.
The last one to arrive was Frey, one of the three old mice who monitored Tian Xin, but whether this name was true or false, Tian Xin didn't know and wasn't interested in knowing.
Although Frey made some disguise, it is impossible to deceive Tianxin.
A person's breath is hard to change unless they possess the hidden breath technique like Tian Xin, but in this world, Tian Xin has yet to see such a person.
Hed and his party, who were following the hunting squad, also came into Tianxin's line of sight.
A top-tier demigod and sixteen higher-ranking demigods - this is indeed a formidable force, devouring this hunting squad wouldn't be a problem.
But it's better if these mice are dealt with once and for all, so as not to cause any more trouble. Tian Xin thought to herself.
Tian Xin hadn't planned on confronting Hede and his group head-on, as their strength was considerable. However, the Blazing Desert was also a great place for hunting.
The Flame Desert is very large, but few people know exactly how big it is. It's said that even the Wind God flying at full power can't escape the Flame Desert in less than a dozen days.
As for whether the upper demon can fly out of the Lianyan Desert, it is still a considerable problem.
Inside the Flame Desert, besides having a large number of Crystal Beasts, there are also terrifying sandstorms.
If you encounter a terrifying flying crystal beast or
Even an upper-ranking demigod would be on the verge of death nine times out of ten.
So in the Blazing Desert, there are very few quasi-gods flying around.
The scorching sun hangs high, heat waves surge, and the entire world is like a furnace, unbearably hot.
The temperature in the Blazing Desert is extremely high, and only those with strength below that of a quasi-god can resist the heat by releasing their aura or magic. Even saint-level strongmen can only last about a day, while god-level strongmen can last a bit longer, but still for a very limited time.
The entire hunting party was on foot and moved very slowly.
Everyone did not use elemental powers and relied solely on physical strength to walk and resist high temperatures.
In the scorching desert, the demigods who cultivate fire-elemental laws and those who focus on physical training have an advantage.
If there were no Crystal Beasts and sandstorms, the Flame Desert would be a good place for Lesser Gods to cultivate fire elemental laws.
At least this environment with a strong fire element makes Tianxin feel very comfortable.
"The Crystal Beasts are highly sensitive to elemental powers, and the Elemental Crystals and Sub-God Bodies' elemental cores are their favorite foods. So in the Blazing Desert, if it's not necessary, never use elemental powers, or else you'll attract a large number of Crystal Beasts." Rayting explained to Tianxin.
"Even spiritual power is used as little as possible."
"Alright." Tian Xin nodded and said.
"Although I don't know what you have to rely on to dare to hunt the Crystal Beast when you're in a lower position than the Undergod, it's still better to be careful in the Blazing Desert, because life and death can happen in an instant." Laitens said with kind intentions.
"Your reminder, I will remember."
"I heard you just came out of Longshen Continent?" Laiting asked with some curiosity.
"Yes. No choice, I'm just too curious." Tian Xin replied casually.
Although Flame City is very large, news travels quickly.
Tian Xin's arrival on Yan Ling Xing was known by many forces within an hour of her exit from the transmission array.
Tian Xin's strength is just too weak, and many forces are not very interested in Tian Xin, or even if they are, they show it very secretly.
Everyone who joins the hunting party has some information about Rettung.
In Flame City, information about a lower-ranking demigod is generally worth less than a mid-grade elemental crystal.
"I see you're quite lucky too, or else you wouldn't have made it this far. In the cultivation world, being overly curious isn't a good thing." Laiting said with profound meaning.
"What experience does one gain from hunting Crystal Beasts?" Tian Xin changed the subject, asking casually.
"You can't let your guard down around a Crystal Beast until you've removed its Crystal Core."
"Don't get too close to the Crystal Beast or let it get close to you, its close combat strength is very strong. If you're not careful, you'll be done for." Rayting said cautiously.
"Lord, Ice Moon and her party have left the city. After that lower-ranking deity asked Tian to join the hunting squad of Gras, an upper-ranking deity of 'Ice Moon' also followed and joined."
"Now the top-tier demigod Cher is following behind the hunting squad with his men. It seems their goal should be that lower-ranked demigod." Sena Kiyoshi said in detail.
"Is an underground junior rank quasi-god really worth this much?"
The castle owner muttered to himself.
The lower-ranking deities might just be a facade; they have ulterior motives.
"In Flame City they can't take action, taking so many people out of the city. That old guy Chelna is probably trying to annihilate the entire hunting squad. What do they want to do?"
The castle owner fell into deep thought and remained silent.
A newly promoted underground deputy god actually has the guts to go out of the city and hunt crystal beasts, it's quite interesting, having a chance to meet him wouldn't be bad either.
Their destination is still unknown, so we've also inserted a high-ranking deity into the hunting squad. Once there's any news, it can be transmitted in time. Although 'Ice Moon' and his group are very powerful, they're not enough to cross the Flame Desert, so they'll definitely return to Flame City. If anything goes wrong, we can also keep them at that time.
Sen no Rikyū continued, knowing that the castle lord sitting in front of him was still listening.
"'Ice Month' is powerful, but it's necessary. It doesn't matter if they turn against us, as long as what we're doing has value."
If it weren't for some restrictions, bringing that questioner here directly would be the best approach.
This restriction is something even the castle lord doesn't dare break, and Senkichi stole a glance at the castle lord, secretly thinking to himself.
"Lord of the castle, shall we send someone to follow them, just in case?" asked Sen no Koe.
In the scorching desert, crises lurk everywhere, and anything can happen.
"Go and invite Old Man Le Wu to come over." The city master said after a moment of contemplation.
Senbei Kiyoshi was shocked by what he heard, and this matter actually got him moving.
In Flame City, his strength and status were second only to the city lord.
"Chelna is a formidable old man. Generally, top-tier demigods are no match for him. Apart from me, only Le Wu in Flame City can fight him to a draw."
Looking at the astonished Sen no Rikyuu, Jouzu explained calmly.
"Yes, Lord of the Castle, I'll go at once." Kihara replied respectfully.
