Chapter 195
On the northwest border of the Gama Empire stands a vast and boundless golden ocean—the Tagor Desert.
There, the scorching sunlight bakes the earth, and the violent sandstorms are like the roars of demons, hiding countless unknown dangers.
Xiao Yan, this once-genius youth, now stands at the edge of the desert, his eyes firm, preparing to step into this land of death and begin his journey of tempering.
"It took nearly a month to finally walk from the Magical Beast Mountain Range to this Tagor Desert." Looking at the boundless desert in front of him, a sense of heroism couldn't help but rise in Xiao Yan's heart.
This Tagor Desert not only has the Exotic Fire that Xiao Yan needs, but also the woman he needs to conquer, the arrogant Queen Medusa.
Xiao Yan took off his upper garment, revealing his sturdy chest, then took off his shoes and socks, wearing only a pair of shorts.
The scorching sunlight shone on his body, and Xiao Yan felt his skin burning, sweat flowing down along his cheeks.
There are many poisonous snakes and fierce beasts in the desert, but fortunately, Xiao Yan's strength is powerful, his physical body is tough, and he let these poisonous snakes bite him, but there was no major harm.
Xiao Yan walked in the desert for a day and didn't encounter any powerful magical beasts; the most powerful were only Tier 2, which were easily dismissed by Xiao Yan.
Shaking his head helplessly, Xiao Yan had to let Hei Yu go and scout where there were towns and villages nearby.
After Xiao Yan communicated with Hei Yu, he learned that even to the nearest village, it would take nearly ten days to reach by walking.
"Teacher, this Tagor Desert is indeed a paradise for fire-attribute cultivators. Before even entering it, the operation speed of the cultivation method in my body increased a bit, and the fire-attribute energy here is very rich. If I stay here for a year, I estimate that reaching Dou Ling will be no problem!" Xiao Yan said happily.
"You continue to enjoy the scenery! I'll go back first. With your current strength, even if you encounter a Dou Huang, you can retreat unscathed. I should also take a rest." Yao Lao smiled slightly at Xiao Yan, then turned into a mass of white light and drilled into the ring.
Seeing Hei Yu fly far away, Xiao Yan didn't stay in place either, directly lifted his feet, and walked into this boundless Tagor Desert.
Xiao Yan used his soul power to scout the entire village, and because the village was not big, he finished scouting it very quickly.
"Hehe! I definitely won't let Teacher down. But although this Tagor Desert is good, it's just too hot. This sweat is flowing like rain!" Xiao Yan wiped the sweat on his face and said.
With Hei Yu leading the way, Xiao Yan didn't worry about getting lost. In the blink of an eye, three days passed, and a village finally appeared in Xiao Yan's field of vision.
After everything was ready, Xiao Yan strode into the village, arrived in front of a dilapidated house, knocked on the door gently, and then shouted: "Is anyone there? I'm a passerby, it's getting late and I want to borrow a place to stay for the night, I wonder if it's possible?"
At this time, a strange smile appeared on Xiao Yan's face, and he laughed: "I've truly become Bu Jingyun now!"
"This village is too shabby! Is it certain that anyone lives here?" Looking at the few simple houses woven from poplar wood and willow branches in front of him, Xiao Yan couldn't help but furrow his brows.
However, Xiao Yan, who had experienced Exotic Fire body tempering, naturally didn't take this bit of temperature seriously, walking in the desert with leisurely steps.
However, Xiao Yan was still not satisfied, took out leather pants, leather armor, and leather boots made of magical beast skin from his storage ring and put them on, then took out a bright red cloak and draped it over himself.
In a little while, his originally slender hair became wavy. Looking at his changes, Xiao Yan couldn't help but laugh. Such a hairstyle is truly handsome.
Xiao Yan grew too fast, not giving Yao Lao a chance to exert his strength at all; Xiao Yan could handle all difficulties himself.
"A bit interesting!" A smile curled the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth, seemingly thinking of something interesting.
Xiao Yan didn't choose to let Hei Yu carry him while flying, because that way the tempering would lose its meaning.
"Normally it takes ten days! But I want to rush day and night, I estimate I'll arrive in three days at most." A smile curled the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth, and then he rushed toward the direction Hei Yu gave.
"Before coming, didn't I let you pack quite a bit of water." Yao Lao said with a faint smile.
After the sun went down, Hei Yu also flew back from the distance.
"Rest assured, I'm not a bad person, I just want to borrow a place to stay for the night. This water and meat are my reward." Xiao Yan smiled, took out a bucket of water and meat from his storage ring, and shook it in front of the door.
This is like playing an online game; riding a flying mount and flying in the sky all the time, what fun is there? Looking at the scenery?
Finally, he took out a strange black long sword from his storage ring, played with it in his hand for a while, and then inserted the sword into his waist.
Yao Lao is becoming lazier and lazier, eating and sleeping every day. When he is happy, he gives Xiao Yan pointers on alchemy, and when he is unhappy, he becomes increasingly indifferent to Xiao Yan.
"Eh? There's actually someone whose strength I can't scout!" After Xiao Yan finished scouting the entire village, he found that the entire village only had a few households, and they were all old, weak, sick, and disabled. The person with the strongest strength was only a two-star Dou Zhe, and the others were all at the Dou Qi stage. Only one person was like being separated by a layer of fog, and he could never scout their true strength.
"I feel it's not enough!" Looking at the boundless desert in front of him, Xiao Yan didn't know where he was at this time, because Xiao Yan had come directly through the interior of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
"Who told you not to go to a big city to take a flying magical beast, but instead came out directly through the Magical Beast Mountain Range? Now you're lost!" Yao Lao said teasingly.
"Isn't this wanting to save some time and look at the scenery?" Xiao Yan scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
After Xiao Yan finished shouting, he used his soul power to scout the room and found an old man leading a child secretly observing him through the door crack. Beside them stood a woman wearing a short skirt and a bamboo hat, who also seemed to be here to borrow a place to stay.
"This place is indeed very suitable for your cultivation, and there is also the existence of Exotic Fire here. If you can obtain another Exotic Fire and then devour it, your cultivation speed will accelerate again, and your strength will also increase significantly. I am very much looking forward to you reaching Dou Ling at eighteen, Dou Wang at nineteen, and entering Dou Huang at twenty!" Yao Lao said with a smile.
Xiao Yan reached out and beckoned, and flames appeared on both palms. He placed both hands on his hair and brushed it a few times gently.
Stepping on the sand grains that were like burning charcoal, Xiao Yan felt as if he were in a sea of fire, and a wave of heat rushed toward his face, making people unable to breathe.
Taking a pill from his storage ring and putting it into his mouth, the pill melted upon contact, and Xiao Yan's face soon changed, turning into a handsome long face.
"Grandpa, meat, meat!" The little girl beside the old man saw the meat Xiao Yan took out, and her saliva flowed out unconsciously.
"Sigh!" The old man sighed and opened the door helplessly.
