Chapter 530 Tianji Locator
Xie Moxuan remembered that when he was first brought into the space by Shen Wanwan, there was clearly sand under his feet and a small sand hill next to him. But what he saw in front of him was not a small sand hill at all. There was a towering peak in the distance, and they were at the foot of the peak.
Earlier, they were unable to tell the direction due to the endless water. Now, it is even more difficult to distinguish east, south, west and north.
Gu Beichen lowered his head and asked the little Candle Dragon in his arms, "How should we go?"
The little Candle Dragon muttered, "Master, head southwest..."
It's a little angry!
He had just felt the rich spiritual energy, but before he could take a few more breaths, he was brought out by his master.
The master must have done it on purpose!
But there is no evidence.
Forget it, just hibernate.
Gu Beichen frowned. It said this, but it was as good as not saying anything!
"Speak clearly!"
Before Gu Beichen could speak again, the little candle dragon turned into a ray of light and disappeared between his eyebrows.
Gu Beichen frowned even deeper, and wanted to say something, but he found that the little Candle Dragon went into hibernation the moment it entered the sea of consciousness.
He looked up at the sky, but still couldn't see the sun and couldn't tell the direction clearly.
Gu Beichen was filled with doubts.
Ever since he entered this world, the sunset and sunrise have been normal, but after that strange black storm, the sun could no longer be seen in the sky.
Even though the sun is not visible, the perceived temperature is hotter than when the sun is visible.
When Shen Wanwan heard Gu Beichen's question, she withdrew her gaze from the distance and looked towards him. She was surprised to find that Xiao Zhulong was gone. "...Where is Xiao Zhulong?"
Xie Moxuan was also looking at Gu Beichen, his eyes flickering, and blurted out: "Little Candle Dragon entered your sea of consciousness?"
Ning'er loved reading storybooks, so he secretly collected a lot of them and sent them to her.
He flipped through two books and found that one of them was a book about cultivating immortals, which contained a brief description of the sea of consciousness.
When a cultivator awakens his spiritual roots and begins to practice, his sea of consciousness will be opened and widened as his cultivation level improves.
The book also said that everyone has a sea of consciousness, but it is filled with a cloud of white mist, and ordinary people cannot detect its existence at all.
It’s different for people who practice cultivation. After their spiritual roots are awakened, the white mist will tend to disperse, but it is still a long way from completely disappearing. Only after they truly begin to practice will it begin to gradually dissipate.
Only when one's cultivation reaches a certain level, the white mist in the sea of consciousness will completely dissipate, so it is called the opening of the sea of consciousness.
When Xie Moxuan first read the storybooks, he scoffed at the contents and felt helpless about Nangong Wanning's hobby of reading storybooks.
But he never expected that what happened in the storybook would now become reality and happen to people around him.
Xie Moxuan still hasn't fully digested the fact that Gu Beichen had contracted a dragon. Now that he thinks that the sea of consciousness is very likely to exist, he feels that this world is extremely magical.
In fact, whether it was Gu Beichen or Xie Moxuan, or Nangong Hao and Xie Leqing, they only knew that Jingsi Island, where they were about to go, might be different from Nanyao Kingdom, and they didn’t know as much about the things there as Shen Wanwan and Nangong Wanning.
Even though Shen Wanwan and Nangong Wanning learned a lot about Jingsi Island from Ye Tianlan, as long as they had not been to the island for a day, everything was just in their imagination, just an illusion.
When you really encounter it, you will still be shocked.
Ye Tianlan didn't notice the movements of the three people.
He came out of the space and immediately took out the Tianji positioning device from the Qiankun Hall and injected spiritual power into it.
He tried twice, and just when he was about to give up if it still didn't work for the third time, the Tianji locator showed an image.
The originally milky white color turned completely transparent, with a layer of faint light on the top. The faint light quickly gathered and formed the shape of a thin needle, sticking to the surface of the Tianji positioning instrument.
Shen Wanwan noticed Ye Tianlan's movements and walked over to him. "Royal brother, is the Tianji positioning device working again?"
When they were walking in the desert before, they tried to use the Tianji positioning device to guide the direction, but found that it did not work.
As soon as Shen Wanwan finished speaking, the blue light pointer attached to the Tianji positioning device suddenly swayed and then rotated at high speed.
"This……"
Shen Wanwan was shocked. This time, not only did it fail, it was out of control!
Ye Tianlan's eyes were fixed on the Tianji locator, his expression solemn.
Gu Beichen and Xie Moxuan also gathered around and looked at the transparent round object in Ye Tianlan's hand with a strange light in their eyes.
Is this a compass for surveying direction?
But that’s not right. How can there be such a beautiful compass in the world?
Not to mention the floating pointer inside and its exquisite structure, its overall transparent material is incomparable to ordinary compasses.
"What is this disc?" Xie Moxuan couldn't help but ask.
"This is a Tianji locator. It can be used to determine direction. If you inject spiritual energy into it, it can also be used to find people and objects. I was able to find Wan'er successfully back then, all thanks to it."
Ye Tianlan explained briefly, his gaze fixed on the Tianji locator. "However, it seems to be restricted by this world. After we entered the desert, we tried to use it to confirm your location, but found that it could not be activated."
He tried to inject spiritual power into the Tianji positioning device again. The high-speed rotating pointer slowly stopped and finally pointed to his left.
Ye Tianlan's face lit up with joy. He raised his head and looked in the direction indicated by the Tianji positioning device. "The safe location is over there. Let's go there quickly."
They were currently in the middle of the valley. It would take quite a while to walk from there to the edge, and then climb up the towering sand hill...
Gu Beichen was surprised, "Weren't you looking in the southwest direction just now?"
Ye Tianlan raised his right hand and gently wiped the top of the Tianji positioning device, and the pointer pattern above disappeared instantly.
At first glance, what he was holding in his hand was clearly a round piece of thousand-year-old ice jade.
Ye Tianlan shook his head. "Before I decided to activate the Tianji locator, I didn't know that was southwest. But now I know. The Tianji locator's direction has never been wrong."
As he spoke, Ye Tianlan had already put the Tianji locator back into his Qiankun bag.
Xie Moxuan was shocked again.
I originally thought that this object called the Tianji Positioner was similar to an ordinary compass.
I really didn't expect that it could not only identify the direction, but also clearly point out the safe and feasible direction.
After receiving instructions from the Tianji positioning device, the group of four no longer hesitated and immediately flew at full speed towards the southwest.
They were moving very fast, but it took them half a cup of tea to reach the edge of the valley on the opposite side.
Just as I was about to climb up, I suddenly heard a dull sound behind me.
The four of them paused and turned to look behind them at the same time.
The sound came from underground, and it was low, like muffled thunder in the sky.
"Oh no! That's the sound of the crater about to erupt. We must leave immediately!" Gu Beichen's expression suddenly changed.
Ye Tianlan concentrated, "The distance is still far, but the speed is extremely fast... It's too late!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Lingxu Sword was summoned out by him, flying in the air, and the sword body instantly became larger and wider.
Ye Tianlan leaped forward and landed steadily on top of the sword.
"Come up quickly!"
Flying with a sword at this time consumes a lot of spiritual energy, and carrying three people at the same time, the pressure is undoubtedly increased three times, and the difficulty can be imagined.
But if we didn't do this, and everyone climbed up the mountain on foot and then escaped, we would probably be annihilated in the lava before even reaching the top.
Shen Wanwan followed closely behind and jumped onto the Lingxu Sword. Gu Beichen did not hesitate and jumped up behind Shen Wanwan.
Xie Moxuan hesitated, "How about you..."
"Without further ado!"
Ye Tianlan directly threw out Qianchan Ling, wrapped it around Xie Moxuan's waist, and lifted him directly onto the Lingxu Sword.
When Xie Moxuan's feet left the ground, the Lingxu Sword shook slightly, and everyone's heart skipped a beat.
But it was only a moment, Ye Tianlan immediately stabilized the sword.
Only after Xie Moxuan stood firmly on the Lingxu Sword did the Lingxu Sword fly up quickly.
Soon, he arrived at the top of the mountain by flying on the sword.
The time that consumed the most spiritual energy had passed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this time, the strange noise behind him became louder and closer.
It sounded like a mighty army galloping towards them, or like the explosion produced by gunpowder bombarding rocks, or even more like the sound of thunder in the sky ringing beside my ears.
At this time, the ground at the bottom of the valley was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, soon catching up with the top of the mountain and continuing to rise.
The crater is about to form and magma will erupt soon!
