Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 228: Endless Sun Desert
Chapter 228: Endless Sun Desert
Shen Xu remembered the Endless Sun Desert from the original book.
According to the story, countless treasures were buried in the desert sand.
However, treasures and danger were almost synonymous.
At this time, Shen Xu looked at the map with an excited face.
"It’s really the Endless Sun Desert." He said, without waiting for Yang Shi to voice his opinion.
"We have to prepare before we enter the desert." Zhen Yuan said with a thoughtful expression.
From what he knew, the desert was relentlessly sunny.
It had no nights, no cold spells, and no cloudy days.
Even if the temperature varied, the ’coldest’ day was many degrees higher than normal places in the secret realm.
Most importantly, the desert sun emitted a kind of poison that was harmful and extremely difficult to deal with.
"You are right." Shen Xu nodded and quickly continued.
"Level five isolation talismans are enough to protect us from sun poison but I need to refine water leaf pills just in case."
"Do you have water leaf grass?" Zhen Yuan asked and Shen Xu couldn’t help but frown.
Water leaf grass was a spiritual plant; exclusive to the Endless Sun Desert.
Without it, Shen Xu couldn’t refine the water leaf pills, meaning they wouldn’t have a way to detoxify if they were accidentally poisoned.
"Xiaoxu, my body is immune to all poisons. How about you enter the space and come out after I find the water leaf grass?" Zhen Yuan suggested but Shen Xu shook his head.
"There is no need." He said and continued.
"A level five isolation talisman can last one day. How many do we have?"
"One hundred and fifty. I will give them all to you." Zhen Yuan said but Shen Xu didn’t agree.
"You won’t get poisoned but you are not immune to high temperature. Walking in the desert without an isolation talisman is asking for trouble."
"In that case, I will draw more talismans before we enter the desert."
"Good." Shen Xu nodded.
After all, they didn’t know when and where they would find a water leaf grass.
Considering that, it was safer to prepare more talismans before entering the desert.
Soon after, Shen Xu released a portable cave and the three went inside.
"I will go into the space to prepare." Zhen Yuan said, kissed his wife, and entered the space.
A moment later, Shen Xu looked at Yang Shi with a thoughtful face.
"You should go into seclusion." He said.
Because he and Yang Shi had a contract, he could sense the little snake’s state.
At the moment, Yang Shi’s aura was a little unstable and his cultivation was showing signs of a breakthrough.
"I will wait for lord Zhen to return."
"Ayuan will be out in a few hours. You don’t need to worry about me." The double urged.
"I..."
"Don’t argue." Shen Xu said and continued to persuade.
"Ayuan carved many formations and inscriptions on the cave walls. I will be fine even if a level seven monster or cultivator attacks the cave."
Hearing this, Yang Shi nodded and Shen Xu immediately sent it to the space.
"Now then, what to do until Ayuan comes out of seclusion?" Shen Xu muttered and then thought of the secret realm map.
Following that, he laid out the map and began examining it.
However, his efforts were in vain.
Unlike other places in the secret realm, the Endless Sun Desert was a large stretch of land made of countless blind boxes.
Until one opened a box, it was impossible to know what treasures they would find.
Recalling the treasures that Xiao Weimin and his harem got in the Endless Sun Desert, Shen Xu couldn’t help but feel a little regretful.
"I know the treasures but there are no landmarks to identify their locations." He sighed but soon peppered up.
’Ayuan and I are very lucky. We should be able to get good things even if we don’t grab the main protagonist’s opportunities.’ He thought.
Time passed and half a day later, Zhen Yuan appeared before the double.
"All done?" Shen Xu asked and Zhen Yuan nodded.
At the same time, he removed a batch of talismans from his storage ring and presented them to the double.
"We each have two thousand pieces. They are enough for five years."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"Don’t mention it." Zhen Yuan smiled, rubbing his lover’s hair.
Since everything was ready, the two left the cave, collected it and activated isolation talismans before stepping into the desert.
"Which direction do you want to go?" Zhen Yuan asked.
"West." Shen Xu immediately answered.
"Okay."
After that, the two headed West.
At a glance, there was nothing but endless sand in the desert.
However, Zhen Yuan saw things differently.
"Xiaoxu, what kind of treasures do you want?" He asked.
"Suitable cultivation resources and rare treasures. We don’t need to care about the rest."
Although Zhen Yuan could see laws, neither he nor Shen Xu was greedy.
As a result, they didn’t think of digging up the desert and taking everything.
"What opportunities did the book Xiao Weimin and his harem get in the Endless Sun Desert?" Zhen Yuan suddenly asked.
"Mmmhh..." Shen Xu hummed with a thoughtful expression.
A moment later, his eyes lit up and he glanced at Zhen Yuan.
"Their first opportunity was the water spirit pearl." He said and quickly continued.
"Xiao Weimin has the five-element spiritual roots and could use the water spirit pearl. However, this opportunity was given to his first wife; Lin Mengmeng. It was her opportunity to advance to the mid-stage of the spirit transformation realm."
Zhen Yuan frowned when he heard this.
"What’s wrong?" Shen Xu asked.
"Xiaoxu, even a genius cultivator needs several hundred years to advance from the nascent soul realm to the spirit transformation realm. However, based on the timeline, Xiao Weimin and his harem had only been in the Tianqi continent for a little more than one hundred years. How did they manage to advance from the golden core realm to the spirit transformation realm within that time?"
Shen Xu rolled his eyes when he heard the question.
