Dragon's Origin

Chapter 355: The Common Problem of Disbelieving in Evil (Part 1)

Wang Sheng didn't care how the two families left their marks; he only cared about leading the way. He easily walked through the jungle and quickly reached the edge of the ice and snow world.

The long rope left last time was still tied to the big tree at the edge of the jungle, but the other end was frozen in the solid ice.

Seeing this, the two families were even more relieved. This was clearly the old path, not a random detour.

After changing clothes and tying another long rope, Wang Sheng took the lead and slid down. The experts behind him followed one by one.

"When you return, if the rope is unusable, use your own weapons to help you climb up," Wang Sheng simply warned. "No matter how good your weapon is, it's not as important as your life. Don't be stingy."

Some people thought their weapons were precious and were reluctant to damage them, sometimes making foolish mistakes. Wang Sheng's words made a few of them stir slightly, but they said nothing.

Still using coarse gauze, covering the face, even the eyes, with several layers of thickening for warmth around the nose and mouth. When Wang Sheng told them that this was the method to prevent snow blindness, even though Wang Sheng had said in advance that the method was very simple, the two families couldn't help but feel the pain for the huge purchase price they paid in the capital. If they had known it was so simple, why bother buying it from Wang Sheng?

But then again, if they didn't get it from Wang Sheng, they really couldn't buy this method. Wang Sheng's goggles were not something anyone could create just by looking at them. The two families could only swallow this loss. Anyway, when dealing with Wang Sheng, just remember that he's greedy for money, and it's even worse after changing to Mei'er.

Continuing forward, the road was not as peaceful as in the jungle. Especially since Wang Sheng strictly forbade them from revealing the aura of the peak of the Legendary Realm, their strength was inevitably suppressed. Occasionally encountering a few large demon beasts made it very troublesome to deal with.

Fortunately, the two families had a tacit understanding, and unlike the first time, when many people had their own thoughts, there was no idea of being lazy and preserving strength. Some demon beasts in the early stages of the eighth or ninth level really couldn't withstand the combined efforts of twelve people.

Five days later, Wang Sheng led the group to a place five miles away from the location of the first demon beast and told them the location.

The reason for this was that the two families had to mark the map to identify the direction, so as to confirm that they had not taken the wrong path. You know, Wang Sheng would not be there when they returned. Even if marks were left, being able to rely on the map to identify the direction was a possible method.

In order to avoid alarming the demon beast experts, Wang Sheng and his party only took a look five miles away and continued on their way. However, the Shi and Gan families, relying on the direction and distance along the way and the comparison with the map, once again confirmed one of the four circle formations that Wang Sheng had mentioned.

"Do you want to go to all four formations that I know, or just pass by the next one and go directly to the location of the hidden treasures?" As they began to trek through the snow again, Wang Sheng did not forget to ask the captains of the two families.

"If we are going to pass by the next one, let's just look at that one." The two simply discussed it and declined Wang Sheng's good intentions to take them to see the locations of the four formations.

The perfect match between the locations of so many formations before and the circle marks on the Peerless Treasure Map had already proved that everything Wang Sheng said was true and there were no falsehoods. As long as the formations passed along the way were correct, it didn't matter if a few formations were verified.

As they walked along, when Wang Sheng pointed in a direction from afar and said that there was a demon beast expert's formation five miles away, there were already casualties in the team.

There was no way around it. The demon beasts in the Thousand Desolation Land were too ferocious. Even if the team was full of Legendary Realm experts, it was impossible to defend against those extremely good at hiding demon beasts hidden under the ice and snow. In addition, Wang Sheng was a little bit slack, so injuries were inevitable.

The only thing that could be said to be okay was that the two injured were only slightly injured, and they were all in unimportant places such as arms and shoulders. There was no problem in keeping up with the team, and at least 90% of their combat power was retained.

However, Wang Sheng did not allow the Shi and Gan families to enjoy ice houses, so everyone could only rest in simple double-layered tents. Although the double-layered tents were made of white high-grade demon beast skin, which could effectively isolate wind, snow, and odors, they could not make a fire, so they could only rely on their personal spiritual energy to activate the warmth-preserving formations in their clothes. They had been consuming energy all the way.

It had already taken six days to get here. Traveling in the ice and snow was not as easy as in the jungle. It was extremely exhausting. While ensuring safety, they consumed physical and spiritual energy all the way. It was the limit to be able to walk more than twenty or thirty miles a day.

Another formation area was confirmed. This time, in order to ensure that the location was correct, the two families specially sent an expert each to sneak over and see the demon beast expert with their own eyes. Otherwise, just relying on Wang Sheng pointing in one direction and saying that there was a demon beast expert five miles away, which happened to match the map, the two families would not dare to trust him completely!

Moving a little further away, Wang Sheng found a leeward place and began to set up camp for rest. Everyone had their own tent, and the styles were exactly the same. These were urgently customized by Wang Sheng before departure. They were sturdy enough to withstand wind and snow.

Everyone stayed in their tents to rest. Someone was specially responsible for guarding, but Wang Sheng did not need to be on duty, because he was the guide, always walking in the front, and consuming the most physical strength. Another reason was that even if Wang Sheng was willing to stand guard, the two families might not dare to trust him.

The first two days were okay, but in the past few days, as long as it was time to rest, everyone couldn't wait to fall asleep from exhaustion. In this situation, if someone really had ulterior motives, it would be too easy to deal with these people who were about to collapse from exhaustion. Therefore, the two families sent people to stand guard. Wang Sheng's tent was in the middle of the two families, which was a dividing line.

Sitting in his tent, Wang Sheng began to prepare for rest methodically. Unlike the Shi and Gan families, who could only eat cold dry food and drink cold water or even ice water and rely on their cultivation to resist, Wang Sheng could drink warm water, eat warm dry food, and sleep in a warm bed.

Nothing else, just a simple trick. Wang Sheng's at least two storage rings were filled with quicklime. There was a special thing like a hot water bottle. Wang Sheng only needed to put some ice and snow in it, then stuff some quicklime powder, and drip a little water. Calcium oxide reacts with water to produce calcium hydroxide, which releases a lot of heat, melts the ice and snow, and turns the hot water bottle into a scalding water bottle.

With this scalding water bottle, Wang Sheng could heat water, heat dry food, and warm his bed. But which of the experts from the two major families could think of such a simple trick? They couldn't make a fire, so they could only resist.
