In the next ten days, the team went deeper and deeper into the Black Desert until they completely lost track of the Lone Underground River.
An Liman's eyes turned red as he said helplessly to the crowd,""It seems that Hu Da only allowed us to go this far. I can't see anything at all.”
There wasn't even a single Haloxylon grass in this area, and the sand dunes didn't fluctuate much. It was impossible to find a path with the naked eye.
If they still couldn't find Jingjue City in three days, they would have to slaughter camels to eat when they returned.
Everyone was anxious. It wasn't easy to get here. Were they really going to give up?
Xue Li Yang turned her head to look at Xu Yuan. Seeing his calm expression, she couldn't help but think,"Did you find anything?"
"I think we should be there. Look at what the notes say.”Xu Yuan reminded with a smile.
Everyone's spirits were lifted.
An Li couldn't believe it. He looked around and saw nothing but endless yellow sand. There was no sign of Jingjue Ancient City at all.
Even if it was a ruin buried by yellow sand, there would still be traces.
Xue Li Yang had absolute trust in Xu Yuan. Without a second word, she took out her notebook and flipped through it.
"When we lost track of the Lone Underground River, in this barren sea of death, two huge black magnetic mountains stood facing each other in the afterglow of the setting sun."
"Magnetic Mountain?"
These two words attracted everyone's attention. They took out their watches, compasses, and other items.
"It does seem to be affected by a powerful magnetic force. In other words, we didn't go wrong. We just have to wait for the evening to arrive.”
The most excited person was none other than Professor Chen.
In order to find the Ancient City of Jingjue, he had prepared for many years. Moreover, his most outstanding student had fallen on the way. If he could not find it, he would definitely be troubled.
"Little Ye." At this moment, Sa Di Peng exclaimed.
It turned out that Ye Yixin had fallen off the camel. If An Liman had not made the camel lie down beforehand, it would have been dangerous.
Xue Li Yang put away her notebook and walked over. She checked it and said,"Not good. Xiao Ye is already showing symptoms of dehydration.”
As she spoke, she took out her water bottle and her expression changed.
"I'm almost out of water."
Not only her, but everyone else in the team, including Xu Yuan, was running out of drinking water.
From the two days before they arrived at the stone tomb, they had not found a source of drinking water. Until now, the drinking water they had brought with them had long been used up.
Hu Bayi said," We can't be sure that we'll see the magnetic mountain. We can't delay the matter of Little Ye. We have to decide whether we should continue forward or retreat."”
Xu Yuan didn't say anything. He didn't need to rely on the resources of the archeological team anymore. No matter what decision these people made, it wouldn't change his determination to enter Jingjue Ancient City.
If they retreated, Xu Yuan would ask An Liman to leave two camels for him.
"I'm fine." Ye Yixin struggled to sit up." Professor Chen, I believe in Brother Xu. Let's wait a little longer. As long as we reach Jingjue Ancient City, there will definitely be water.”
Xu Yuan was a little surprised. When did this girl start to trust him so much?
Forget it, she was right. There was indeed water under the Ancient City of Jingjue.
It was just a question of whether he could drink it.
Two hours later, dusk finally arrived.
Xu Yuan pointed at a tall pile of sand and said to Xue Li Yang,"Come, let's go up."
At this moment, not only the two of them, but the others were also eager to confirm if they could really see the gate of Jingjue Country in the setting sun.
Facing the afterglow, everyone narrowed their eyes slightly. After getting used to it, Xue Li Yang was the first to shout excitedly,"Look, there really are two black magnetic mountains.”
From their position, it was more like a black dragon crawling on the ground than a mountain.
The two sides of the magnetic mountain were endless, and there was only a mountain pass in the middle, just like the term Black Dragon's Hope that Xu Yuan had reminded him before he joined the team.
"Great, as long as I can take a look at the Ancient City of Jingjue, even if I die inside, it's worth it.”Professor Chen seemed to have an inexhaustible amount of energy.
On the contrary, Hu Bayi suddenly had doubts.
Before this, Xue Li Yang's father had led an expedition team to search for the Ancient City of Jingjue with these clues. What had they encountered in the end that caused them to never return?
Thinking of this, even under the scorching sun, Hu Bayi could not help but shiver.
However, the risk factor in his body was stronger than anyone else."Should we leave now or wait until tonight?”
Everyone looked at Xu Yuan in unison.
Whether it was the black sandstorm, the army ants, or the magnetic mountain, Xu Yuan's ability to predict the future had completely conquered everyone.
Even the sponsor of the team, Xue Li Yang, who was born into a rich family, had been f * cked by him.
If he said that they had to stay here for a night before they could continue, no one would dare to say no.
Xu Yuan found it funny, but he still said,""Mountain Gaze is a dead horse. The distance from here to Magnetic Mountain is not short. Our team members are dehydrated. It's better to set off now and find a water source as soon as possible.”
Chief Butler of the Corpse Clan, we're finally going to meet.
Hu Bayi's doubt was actually his doubt. Why did the Corpse Clan's Chief Butler find the spirit herb but not leave the Ancient City of Extinction to find Ji Zixuan?
Could it be that as the Queen of Exquisite, she would be trapped inside like those explorers?
