After Lu Sangjiu's group entered the Lost Desert, they came to truly experience how formidable this place was.
All they could see was yellow sand, and walking was much more strenuous than usual.
The sun was scorching. Although they all had Cold Ice Crystal Stones to cool them down, there was no escaping its searing heat. It felt like their skin was about to peel off.
Even when they rested, they couldn't find a single shady spot. It was sheer torture.
They didn't encounter anyone else along the way, but venomous insects were common, forcing them to remain on high alert for sudden attacks.
This kind of life was so dull and tedious that it was hard to suppress their growing irritation.
The only fortunate thing was that Chi Yan's direction-finding Magic Treasure hadn't failed, so they still had a clear path forward.
They traveled like this for three days. On the fourth day, while the group was resting and meditating, they were suddenly hit by a massive sandstorm!
