The four groups were sent to the four different directions, east, south, west, and north. Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena were a.s.signed to most arduous of the four military regions, and it was also the only one without any ties to the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, but it was also the one where there was the least chance of having their covers blown.

Tang Wulin was carrying an introduction letter with him that had been written by Holy Spirit Douluo Yali on behalf of Shrek Academy.

Compared to his friends, Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena had the longest journey ahead of them, and in Gu Yue's current condition, she wasn't going to be of much help to him at all. As such, after they arrived at their destination, Tang Wulin would have to find a place for Gu Yue to stay. After all, how was she supposed to join the military when she was acting like an infant?

Tang Wulin was feeling very conflicted. He was hoping that Gu Yue would get better soon, but he was also kind of hoping that she would constantly stay by his side like this. Regardless of what kind of secrets she was hiding, there was most likely a very good chance that she'd leave him after she recovered her memories, and that was something that he definitely didn't want.

Even though he could get intimate with Gu Yuena as that would essentially be taking advantage of her in her amnesiac state, just being with her every single day made him extremely happy and filled him with motivation.

He would just have to take everything one step at a time from here. He had already done everything that he could to cure her, so it was up to her to get better.

Three days later, they drove around Bright City and entered the western region of the continent. The roads in the western region of the continent were all very well-developed. At the very least, that was the case within a radius of around 500 kilometers around Bright City.

After two more days, a boundless expanse of desert appeared up ahead.

This area in the western region of the Douluo Continent didn't actually belong to the Douluo Continent. Instead, it only became connected to Douluo Continent over 10,000 years ago due to continental s.h.i.+ft.

At the time, this region belonged to the Sun Moon Empire, and the uncommon metals brought to the Douluo Continent by the Moon Night Continent was an important driving factor behind the rapid advancements of current soul technology.

After entering the desert, Tang Wulin adjusted the Tang Sect battle vehicle to desert mode. This allowed the vehicle to continue to progress onward smoothly, but its speed had decreased.

The main benefit of soul technology was that as a Soul Master, he'd never have to worry about running out of fuel; he could always recharge the vehicle using his soul power. Tang Wulin's soul power rank was now close 60, so he'd have no issues fueling this battle vehicle for a very long time.

Thankfully, the GPS was able to guide them. Otherwise, it would be extremely easy to get lost in this boundless desert.

After entering the desert, they'd have to drive about five more days before arriving at the westernmost region of the continent. They'd set off from Heaven Dou City and crossed over more than half of the entire continent, and their entire journey spanned close to 5,000 kilometers!

After driving in the desert for a day, Tang Wulin finally stopped the car as night began to descend.

”Father, I'm so tired!” Gu Yue wheedled as she got out of the car and stretched out her body.

Tang Wulin looked up at the sky to find that this was a remarkably peaceful night in the desert. An occasional gust of wind would blow past, carrying some sand toward them, and the air was extremely dry, but the sky was very clear.

The sky hadn't turned completely dark yet, and the remnants of the sunset in the distance seemed to have fused as one with the desert's horizon. There would be no way for anyone who hadn't visited the desert before to witness such a beautiful piece of scenery.

Tang Wulin smiled, and said, ”Just bear with it for a few more days; it's going to take about two and half more days of driving to pa.s.s through the desert and the entire Scorching Basin. After we emerge from the Scorching Basin and enter the Skyend Mountain Ranges, we'll be very close to our destination.”

Gu Yuena's brows furrowed slightly as she said, ”Father, I don't like this place; there's nothing good to eat here.”

Tang Wulin couldn't help but burst into laughter. ”It's alright, we have enough dried rations with us. There's nothing in the desert that can be used to start a fire, so we'll have to rely solely on those rations for a few meals. After we pa.s.s through the desert and enter the Scorching Basin, we can find a place to take a good rest.”

Not only did Gu Yuena not like this place, he wasn't fond of it, either. As the Son of Nature, he was naturally averse to deserts as there were no plants here, nor any power that he could borrow. The ideal settings of plant system Soul Masters were always forests or lakes; places that could nurture and enhance them.

If Tang Wulin were to cultivate in this desert, the effect achieved through 10 days of cultivation most likely wouldn't even be as good as what could be achieved by cultivating in a forest for a single day.

”We'll sleep in the car tonight. I'll get some dried rations for you to eat.” The battle vehicle had three rows of seats, and the final two rows could be folded down to form a makes.h.i.+ft double bed, so they'd have no issues sleeping in the car.
