Chapter 638

Meng Ying heard Lucynee's words and nodded slightly.

The Endless Desert is too vast.

If it could be reclaimed, it would indeed be a great achievement.

But one need only think to know that such a vast desert, if to be reclaimed, would certainly be no easy task.

At this moment, within the Endless Desert, a million captives had been transported and were beginning to dig wells.

The groundwater beneath the Endless Desert was buried extremely deep, so these wells were very difficult to dig.

But once drilled through, the Medusas could use magic to concentrate and draw up the groundwater, forming rivers across the Endless Desert.

With rivers, oases would appear.

When these oases connected into a continuous expanse, the Endless Desert would slowly transform into one great oasis.

Of course, the time required would be extremely long.

Whether drawing too much groundwater might cause ground collapse was not a concern of the Medusas.

There were no people living in the Endless Desert anyway; if it collapsed, so be it.

They were all powerful beings; ordinary geological collapses posed no threat.

Given the stability of the Continent of Gods, surface collapses mattered little; new geological structures would soon form after collapse.

"We've arrived, Holy Maiden Meng Ying. Let us part here."

After arriving at the Medusas' dwelling place, Lucynee smiled brightly and said.

At this moment, Lucynee was in her leg form.

She could remain in leg form for long periods, needing only to periodically revert to her serpent body for movement.

Meng Ying thought for a moment and said, "Chief Lucynee, wait a moment."

Lucynee turned back and asked, "What is it, Holy Maiden Meng Ying?"

Meng Ying said, "Reclaiming the Endless Desert will take too long. I wish to pray to my deity and see if my deity can grant us aid."

"The Great Lord of Flame?"

Lucynee's expression turned curious.

Meng Ying nodded.

Lucynee said, "Then thank you very much, Holy Maiden Meng Ying."

She couldn't help but wonder whether the Lord of Flame might have some good solution.

After all, just from the name, the Lord of Flame's power seemed related to fire.

But reclaiming the Endless Desert truly required water.

After speaking, Meng Ying began to pray.

In the divine realm of the Winged Demon God, Lin Yan heard Meng Ying's prayer.

Among Lin Yan's divine rank sequence, Meng Ying, Qing Ling, Chenxi, and Succubus Natasha were in the first tier.

When they prayed, Lin Yan could hear them directly.

Their voices were all pleasing, each with its own character; listening to their prayers was sometimes an enjoyable thing.

"Reclaiming the Endless Desert?"

Lin Yan thought for a moment and turned his gaze toward it.

Lin Yan naturally knew that vast desert.

Long ago, when the Lion Clan and Tiger Clan fought, the remnants of the Tiger Clan had fled into the Endless Desert.

But the Tiger Clan's remnants were likely all dead by now; the entire Tiger Clan had only Wen Ni left.

Wen Ni had laid down her hatred for the Lion Clan, for the true culprits behind the Tiger Clan's destruction—the Wang Zu bloodline—had been utterly eradicated by her, not a single survivor remaining.

But Wen Ni now rarely stayed in Yan Province.

Probably because she feared being reminded of the past.

She usually remained in Xiling Province.

Now she had a more important task: to guard the Purple Gold Empire.

This was something she very much preferred.

Reclaiming the desert seemed unrelated to flame in every way.

But Lin Yan could fully activate the Rule of Life and, with vast divine power, rain down "Divine Dew."

Just as when divine grace had fallen from the heavens after the Dark Forest had been reclaimed.

But the desert differed from the forest.

The forest already had an environment suitable for plant growth.

The soil was fertile, and both soil and air contained abundant moisture; the divine rain Lin Yan had rained down then was merely an added blessing.

But the Endless Desert's environment was inherently the enemy of all plants, even the enemy of life itself.

There was not a drop of moisture in these sands.

There was also little nutritional substance within them.

And the sand layer was extremely thick.

If Lin Yan were to use the same method as before, the energy cost would increase more than a hundredfold.

Of course, for Lin Yan, this was not unaffordable.

But such a waste of divine power made Lin Yan feel it was wasteful.

"I might as well try the method I recently comprehended."

Lin Yan thought.

Yes, after burning two Abyss Demon Gods and analyzing their data, Lin Yan had gained profound insight into how deities manipulate the conversion of matter and energy.

Moreover, Lin Yan can do better than many gods.

It's just that Lin Yan has recently been studying the Divine Realm and has had no spare time to try.

Now, it's the perfect moment to give it a try.

Thinking of this, Lin Yan activated his Divine Core.

Above the endless desert, on the flying ship, Lucini watched Meng Ying praying devoutly, still wondering whether the Lord of Flame would descend to help.

Beneath the flying ship lay a line of a million captives, stretching tens of kilometers, digging wells.

At that moment, Lucini felt something land on her face.

She reached out and touched a drop of water.

"Huh? Where did this water come from?"

Lucini was curious.

Then she looked up and saw countless raindrops falling from the sky!

It's raining!

Lucini had not seen rain in over a hundred years.

Rain had never fallen in the endless desert!

"Chieftain, it's raining!"

Beside her, a Medusa with petrifying eyes murmured.

Yes, it's raining!

It's actually raining!

Meng Ying stopped praying, for she had received the Lord of Flame's revelation.

This rain was brought by the Lord of Flame.

In the endless desert, where no rain had fallen for centuries, who else but the Lord of Flame could bring this rain?

"It's raining, it's actually raining—is this a divine manifestation?"

On the ground, tens of thousands of snake women erupted in joy.

In the distance, the million captives digging wells also raised their heads to gaze at the sky.

It was raining in the endless desert.

And this rain quickly turned into a torrential downpour, pouring like buckets!

"Holy Maiden Meng Ying, the great Lord of Flame has truly helped us—look, the area covered by this rain is enormous."

Lucini's voice rang out with excitement.

In her line of sight, the area covered by this rain was astonishingly vast!

At Meng Ying's command, the flying ship flew through the rain.
