Chapter 606: Sunset Plains

Three days quickly passed. The numerous wanderers used those three days to hunt down many Level Surpassing Magical Beasts in the vicinity, and even the Sword God Gerald, as well as the Chief Elven Priestess, had done the same. They led their clansmen and started hunting in the vicinity. They all made great gains. They didn’t just get 100 Level Surpassing Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, but they also hunted a God-Level Lightning Eagle and got a precious Godhead.

Level Surpassing Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals weren’t precious to the numerous God-Level wanderers that drifted in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils for many years, but they had a great significance to the Sword God Gerald and the Chief Elven Priestess. They could be used to train a large number of elite clan members.

Richardson didn’t cross the past few days like the crowd who went hunting in the vicinity, and he crossed carefree days as he had fun everywhere with the beauty Sala. He walked along the Red River, admiring its mesmerizing scenery, and he got closer to the beauty Sala. They seemed like close lovers in other people’s eyes.

Swoosh!

Yang Ling was dripping with sweat, and he threw over a large boulder filled with Pure Gold Sand that weighed several tens of thousands of pounds. The boulder fell on the ground with a loud rumble and made a deep pit in it. In an instant, the ground started shaking as if an earthquake had occurred, and a large storm of dust arose.

Yang Ling used the three days’ period to train and raise his power quickly. He still wasn’t able to fuse completely with the Godhead within his body, but he still absorbed more of its energy thanks to the Black Crystal Marrow, and he got deeper comprehension of the Force Law.

His body was strengthened again thanks to the Body Honing Wizard Mantra’s effects, and his defense, as well as his close-quarters combat ability, were better than even the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra. Even the bald mammoth Bartley couldn’t deal with him any longer, let alone the Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and the others.

He didn’t make any progress in the Soul Wizard Spells’ aspect, but he still turned stronger and got closer to the day where he would become an apex Wizard Warrior.

“Lord, we have excavated the last batch of Pure Gold Sand Ore.” The Flying Dragon King Seylius rushed over quickly and reported the progress to Yang Ling.

“Fine, let’s go.” Yang Ling collected the large boulder of Pure Gold Sand on the ground and walked out of the cave with large strides.

In the past three days, the Thousand-handed Blood Vine, the Corpse Wizard King, and others engrossed themselves in mining, and they mobilized all available manpower to speed up the process. They worked together with a common purpose, and they managed to excavate a large amount of excellent Pure Gold Sand Ore. They finally managed to finish the task on the third day!

The crowd made a large hole with a depth of tens of meters in the vast plaza in the depths of the cave. They didn’t just dig out excellent Pure Gold Sand; even the impure ore was mined by the attentive Ophelia and others, and they organized them by categories. After the last batch of Pure Gold Sand Ore was moved into the Wizard Pagodas dimension, a great mountain of Pure Gold Sand was piled up, and Master Aaron, who was in charge of crafting weapons and equipment, grinned from ear to ear.

He was a master who invested his whole energy on craftsmanship, and nothing would make him so excited other than a large number of precious materials.

“Ophelia, Rodriguez, you should snatch the remaining time to take a rest.”

When Yang Ling discerned that the Corpse Wizard King and others were all exhausted because they had worked too hard, to the point where their eyes turned bloodshot, he waved his hand and moved them into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. He instructed them to use the remaining time to rest, before he left the empty mine with the energetic Thousand-handed Blood Vine, Elizabeth. He quickly looked for the Sword God, Richardson, and the others that were eating roasted meat in the vicinity and he offered every person a pile of excellent Pure Gold Sand Ore.

“Yang Ling, thank you. Come over and taste the little sheep I roasted.” The Chief Elven Priestess sliced a piece of fragrant roasted meat and carefully sprinkled spices over it before she presented it to Yang Ling. She wore a smile across her face as she observed Yang Ling wolfing it down in several pieces, and she quickly waved her hand to take the heavy pile of Pure Gold Sand Ore into her spatial ring.

“Hehe, good. It would have been better if you offered me another pile.” Richardson’s eyes lit up upon seeing a large pile of Pure Gold Sand Ore, and he collected it without the least bit of hesitation. Soon after, he stretched out his hand and sliced a large piece of golden cow meat. However, he didn’t offer it to Yang Ling, but to the beauty, Sala, who was next to him.

“How is the development of your relationship?” Upon seeing Richardson and Sala stuck together, Yang Ling couldn’t help but shake his head. He didn’t expect that they would develop feelings for each other so quickly. Sala had already swallowed a Godhead, but none knew when she would advance into the God-Level, and allowing them to continue like this wasn’t a valid solution.

What should be done?

Yang Ling’s eyebrows furrowed as he observed Richardson and the beauty, Sala, who were as close as lovers. He found this matter was more thorny than facing a group of Abyssal Demons.

Separating an affectionate couple by force wasn’t a valid solution, and Sala, who seemed radiant with happiness, wouldn’t give up on her own accord. It also wasn’t appropriate to inform Richardson of Sala’s situation, and this was why he didn’t know what he should say. If he allowed them to continue developing their relationship like this, who knew what accidents would occur if Richardson or his family’s members discovered the truth?

“The Black-Horned Demon’s awakening day is close at hand, and more demons are in guard near the Moon River. Sirs, if we don’t quickly set out on a journey, sneaking into the Moon River will only become more difficult.” The black-robed old man, Welkox, was quite worried. He was worried that more demons would guard the Moon River’s vicinity.

“The higher the number of demons, the better. We should take out their Godheads.” Yang Ling chuckled and sliced a piece of golden, roasted meat.

“After we eat to our fill, we must set out on a journey and rush quickly to the Wandering Castle.” Richardson drank a cup of Rum in one gulp and spoke loudly. “As long as I craft a large sword with Pure Gold Sand, any demon who dares to cross my path will only throw away his life in vain.”

…

Richardson was quite excited, and he wished to quickly rush into the Wandering Castle to ask an expert there to make a tough, sharp, heavy sword with a large amount of Pure Gold Sand Ore. After he ate and drank to his fill, he made ample preparations and set out on a journey toward Sunset Plains with the crowd. But they unexpectedly ran into some troubles when they had just set off.

The river wasn’t big, and God-Level experts could instantly fly over it. But it wouldn’t be easy for Golden Cloak Warriors with Sacred-Level or Domain-Level power to cross it. A certain Golden Cloak Warrior rushed into the water excitedly and was about to swim through it, but when he just swam for several feet, he felt into a swamp-like mass of silt with unfathomable depth. If a sharp-eyed wanderer with deft hands hadn’t quickly pulled him out, he would have probably sunk and drowned.

What should be done?

The Sword God Gerald looked at the two unfathomably deep masses of silt in both sides of the Red River and furrowed his brows. If it was just the two of them here, it would have been possible for them to fly over them reluctantly. But they had tens of clansmen that couldn’t fly, and even if they were to work hard until exhaustion, it would still be difficult for them to bring over all of the clansmen. This was why, after Gerald had muttered to himself irresolutely for a moment, he asked his clansmen to start working. They planned to cut down several large trees and craft wooden rafts that would carry them all.

“The Graveyard of Gods and Devils is really not a place which people with Domain-Level or Sacred-Level’s power should venture into carelessly.” When Richardson saw the numerous Golden Cloak Warriors undertaking the task and cutting down trees to make wooden rafts that they would use to cross the river, he shook his head. He was about to instruct every wanderer to bring with him a person so that they could directly bring over the numerous Elves and Golden Cloak Warriors.

“Hehe, you don’t have to trouble yourself. Just observe this.” When Richardson was about to speak, the Thousand-handed Blood Vine, Elizabeth, stepped forward, and a sizzling noise echoed out as she stretched out the numerous tentacles behind her. She lifted up several Golden Cloak Warriors and spun them in the air one time before she threw them strongly.

Ah!

The several Golden Cloak Warriors in mid-air were caught off-guard, and they let out sharp cries. They were afraid that they would fall by mistake into the unfathomable Red River or the swamp-like mass of silt. But, as a “thump” sound echoed out, they fell heavily on the opposite bank, and they finally heaved a sigh of relief after they stepped upon firm ground.

One, two…

The Thousand-handed Blood Vine had already advanced into the God-Level, and it possessed great power. As its tough and strong tentacles danced in the air, she quickly threw over all of the Golden Cloak Warriors and Elves. Soon after, she retracted all tentacles into her body and turned into a scarlet beam that streaked across the air. She quickly flew to the opposite bank.

“Tsk, tsk. It’s amazing! Let’s go. Let’s go, quickly.” When Richardson witnessed this shocking sight, he couldn’t help but admire her. He quickly led the numerous wanderers and crossed the Red River. He had already practiced to the High-Level Deity Stage’s peak, but he still wasn’t sure that he could face the Thousand-handed Blood Vine, Elizabeth, head-on, because he had already seen her great power. Putting aside everything, he wouldn’t be able to deal even with her innumerable tough and agile tentacles.

Swoosh!

After the crowd crossed the river, they advanced forward quickly without stopping. The crowd, led by the black-robed old man, Welkox, traveled several thousand miles and reached the Sunset Plains’ vicinity. They crossed many tall mountains, one after the other, and they crossed many ravines. They quickly distanced themselves from the raging Red River, and, on the way, they managed to evade many patrol teams of Abyssal Demons, as well as bloodthirsty and crazy groups of God-Level Magical Beasts, thanks to Yang Ling’s early warnings.

If this was in normal times, Yang Ling wouldn’t mind commanding the Magical Beast Army to set up an ambush and kill lone Abyssal Demons or God-Level Magical Beasts. But he could only hurry up with the crowd so that they could sooner reach the Wandering Castle on the Sunset Plains. God-Level Magical Beasts could be seen everywhere in the large Graveyard of Gods and Devils. But, if they couldn’t rush into the Moon River before the Black-Horned Demon’s awakening, they probably wouldn’t get another chance to collect the precious Moon Stones.

The crowd practiced for several days, and they all honed their strength for one big push. This was why they were quite swift. They managed to reach the border between the mountain range and the Sunset Plains in the evening.

If one stood atop a tall mountain’s peak and surveyed the surroundings, he wouldn’t manage to see the end of the verdant and lush Sunset Plains that stretched for tens of thousands of miles, or even several hundred thousand miles. Most of this region was a wide expanse of flat land, and there were only a few hills in it. There were numerous rivers, and it had a habitat with water sources and grass. There were innumerable Magical Beasts living here, and all kinds of roars echoed out repeatedly.

This was a plain with a beautiful landscape, and it was a paradise for Magical Beasts.
