Douluo: Take Tang San to fight Gangzi

Chapter 428 Desert Sunflower

"My name is Kikyo. I'm 54 years old this year. My martial spirit is Shadow Lion. I'm a level combat spirit master. I never lie. Everyone who knows me gives me an honest and reliable evaluation..."

"cough!"

"Your Majesty, I was wrong, but I really didn't lie to you!"

In the desert, a white tire knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xiao Lin to apologize.

"Your voice is loud, and you don't seem to be admitting your fault, do you?"

Xiao Lin was teasing her intentionally, and said in an impatient tone.

"Your Majesty, this is natural to me. I am such an honest person!"

"An honest man never says he is an honest man. Why did you come to me?"

"Your Majesty dared to go to the wilderness alone. I thought you were very powerful, but a little stupid, so I wanted to team up with you to dig for treasure."

"I think you are trying to trick me?"

"I dare not, Your Majesty! I am a very honest man and I never lie to anyone."

Xiao Lin's intimidation worked, and Kikyo had already put away her little thoughts.

Seeing that Kikyo became obedient, Xiao Lin stopped making things difficult for her.

"Tell me, what's going on here, and what about the treasure you mentioned?"

Xiao Lin asked calmly, but his eyes were looking at the huge desert river in front of him.

When Xiao Lin observed the desert river in front of him from the sky, he found that it had no end as far as the eye could see, and countless sands were flowing forward in an endless stream.

Faced with this unusual scene, and without any locals around, Xiao Lin really didn't want to act rashly.

"Hehe, Your Majesty, you don't know this."

Hearing that Xiao Lin's tone was no longer serious, Kikyo immediately stood up and acted as a guide.

"Your Majesty, this is the Quicksand River, also known as the Desert Sunflower. At the western end of this 800-mile long river of yellow sand is a huge circular quicksand terrain. If you look at it from a map, it looks like a sunflower."

"This place is very dangerous. Once, a group of people were looking for something nearby. Many Soul Emperor-level warriors accidentally fell into the Quicksand River. Eventually, they were carried to the west by the sand and sank into the Quicksand River."

"Those Soul Emperors are exactly the ones who sold the map to Your Majesty."

When Kikyo finished speaking, Xiao Lin narrowed his eyes and said, "How do you know those people are the ones who sold me the map?"

"Your Majesty, do you think those people are looking for something here that they can hide from us locals?"

Kikyo raised the corner of his mouth with a look of disdain.

"In fact, even without your map, we have quite a few people here who are looking for something, and they are almost finding the location on your map."

When Kikyo finished speaking, Xiao Lin frowned.

Was he cheated by the auction?
As if knowing what Xiao Lin was thinking, Kikyo continued.

"Your Majesty, don't feel like you've been deceived. In fact, it's better to be deceived."

"The place on your map is the key location of the treasure. Without a correct map, it would take hundreds of people at least three years to find it."

"It doesn't matter. What is the treasure you are talking about?"

Xiao Lin interrupted Kikyo and turned his attention to the treasure.

"Your Majesty, the treasure you are looking for is the soul guide of the Great Wilderness Ancient Country, right? This is the treasure I am talking about."

After Kikyo finished speaking, a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Lin's eyes. This woman was quite intelligent.

"To be honest, I happened to be there when that group of people were digging for soul guides. My Shadow Lion Martial Spirit gave me perfect hiding abilities, and I witnessed the situation with my own eyes."

Next, Kikyo explained in detail what had happened.

One night, Kikyo used her martial soul's soul skills, hid in the dark, and discovered that the group of people at the auction had dug out dozens of soul-guided weapons.

But unfortunately, the other weapons were weathered the moment they were taken out. Only that one weapon, because of its highest quality, was able to withstand the attack of time.

It was at that time that the group of people at the auction, out of greed, began to dig into the Quicksand River little by little, and then accidentally, several Soul Emperors were sucked into the terrifying quicksand.

"And the treasure I'm talking about is the same thing as what Your Majesty wants, but the location on Your Majesty's map is actually just a switch to the treasure location."

"Your Majesty, if you look carefully at the map, you will know that the location is right beside the Liusha River."

"But in fact, from what I have observed, this location is actually inside the Quicksand River."

"That is to say, in order to find the treasure and the switch, we must enter this quicksand river."

Kikyo spoke eloquently, his face full of confidence, like a highly educated person.

However, there was a loophole in Kikyo's words.

That is, how did she know that there was a switch in the Quicksand River?
She had never been in there.

Any Soul Emperor who entered would only die, and as a Soul King, she had no means of escaping death.

Soon, Xiao Lin expressed his doubts.

"Your Majesty is worthy of being Your Majesty. You easily asked the key to the problem. In fact, this is just my speculation."

"I suspect that the real treasure map of this ancient country is in the center of the Desert Sunflower, and the starting point of this Quicksand River has a switch to control the Quicksand River."

"You don't have a sound argument for this point."

Xiao Lin shook his head.

"Who said there wasn't one?"

When Kikyo heard Xiao Lin's words, she became anxious and shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty, please look carefully at the map. Is the center of the Desert Sunflower the center of the Great Wasteland? Is this a coincidence?"

"Even if that's the case, why is the switch placed here, eight hundred miles away?"

Xiao Lin still shook his head. Although he might not be able to find the treasure on the map, he would not believe the illusory treasure location mentioned by Kikyo.

"I don't know about that. Anyway..."

Kikyo was stunned by Xiao Lin's question. She couldn't say it was a feeling.

"Xiao Lin, what this woman said might be true."

At this moment, the Fire Dragon King said lightly in Xiao Lin's consciousness space.

Without waiting for Xiao Lin to ask back, he gave his reasons.

"I can sense that the spiritual energy here is flowing towards the direction of the Quicksand River. This means that there is a large amount of spiritual energy in the center of the sunflower."

"What's wrong with that?" Xiao Lin asked back.

"This means that there may be a large amount of something similar to the ten thousand year old ice marrow in the Far North at the center of this sunflower."

The Ice Dragon King responded indifferently, and after hearing the Ice Dragon King's explanation, Xiao Lin instantly understood.

That desert sunflower is the "soul core" of this vast wilderness. Even if there is no mountain dragon king fossil that he wants, even if there are no remains of soul guides from the ancient country of the wilderness, he can still explore that place.

"Well, anyway, let's go and take a look."

Xiao Lin convinced himself that in addition to the two reasons mentioned above, there was another reason.

That is to say, if the Mountain Dragon King incarnated into the continent, it should have spread out in all directions. The center of this sunflower also happens to be the center of the wilderness.

Maybe the remains of the Mountain Dragon King are underneath.

So, Xiao Lin went straight to the location on the map without saying anything.
