Chapter 352 The End of the Fire Chase
Chapter 352 The End of the Fire Chase
The inner layer of the scepter, the outer edge of the core area.
When Lin Qiong and his group passed through the nameless Titan's Tomb and entered the core area of the Imperial Scepter.
What came into view was a vast and boundless sea of sand.
Above the sea of sand, yellow sand fills the sky, the scorching sun hangs high in the air, and broken ruins are piled up between the sand dunes like garbage.
"No, let me calm down first."
Inside some ruins, March 7th was kneeling on the sandy ground, holding his head. "This is the first time I've ever experienced motion sickness."
Meanwhile, Walter Young, standing to the side, had a furrowed brow, one hand supporting himself against a broken pillar, the other covering his mouth as if he was about to vomit.
“...Miss Xi Lian”.
Dan Heng suppressed his discomfort and said in a low voice, "Excuse me for speaking frankly, but making them transform into trains is not a wise decision."
As soon as these words were spoken, Himeko, whose expression was also not good, immediately expressed her strong agreement: "Danheng is right."
Upon hearing these words, Xi Lian fell into deep thought.
"Hmm... As expected, it seems that recreating the Star Train from memory alone is not feasible."
She stood in the shadow of a dilapidated wall, gazing at the fine sand swirling at her feet.
After a long pause, she sighed softly and then muttered to herself, "I wonder what it would feel like to ride the real Star Train. I hope it won't be this bumpy."
However, just then, a noisy argument came from ahead, instantly interrupting Xi Lian's thoughts.
"I already said! The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. We should have just gone straight through the middle of the ruins!" the male voice hurriedly explained.
The other female voice was not to be outdone and immediately retorted:
"No! What if we trigger a trap if we go through the middle? We should follow the route marked by Lady Black Tower!"
Upon hearing this, the man's voice immediately rose several decibels:
"A trap? What trap? Lady Black Tower only marked the final destination, not the specific route. I think you're just looking for an excuse to play a little longer!"
The sounds of arguing echoed over the ruins, drawing the attention of several people nearby.
The group looked in the direction of the sound and saw Lin Qiong and Xing standing in the center of the ruins, facing each other.
The two were only a step apart, but the atmosphere was extremely tense.
If we analyze the content of their current argument in connection with what happened a few minutes ago.
It's easy to deduce that the two were reviewing who should drive the Star Train.
Just minutes ago, in order to reach the core area of the Imperial Scepter as soon as possible, the final battle against the "Iron Curtain" had begun.
With the help of the power of "memory", Xi Lian recreated a Starry Sky Train using Lin Qiong and Xing as the carriers.
Of course, this is not the real Star Train, but merely an empty shell formed by the projection of memories.
To put it more simply, this train is essentially a sedan chair that Lin Qiong and Xing lifted together.
Both the direction and speed of their journey were decided by the two of them.
However, that's exactly where the problem lies.
Everyone knows that for a sedan chair to be stable, the people carrying it must be of one mind.
However, during their journey through the nameless Titan's tomb, Lin Qiong and Xing had a disagreement.
Lin Qiong originally planned to directly pass through the tomb and reach the target point in one step.
But Xing wanted to proceed gradually, taking longer routes to avoid encountering traps along the way.
The pulling and tugging between the two caused the star train they had transformed into to shake violently.
Those who suffer are naturally the passengers on this train.
"Alright, alright, we've successfully reached the finish line."
After letting them fuss for a while, Xi Lian slowly stepped forward, stopped between Lin Qiong and Xing, and used her body to separate the two.
"This unforgettable journey of chasing fire is finally coming to its final chapter."
She looked around, her gaze sweeping over Lin Qiong and Xing, then took their hands and said with a smile:
"Let's finish this together, okay?"
Feeling the warm touch from his right palm, Lin Qiong was slightly taken aback.
He could clearly feel that the resentment that had accumulated from the previous disagreements was dissipating at an extremely rapid pace.
Xing, whose right hand was also being held by Xi Lian, was also visibly taken aback.
She first glanced at Xi Lian beside her, then raised her head to look at Lin Qiong in front of her.
After a few seconds of silence, Xing playfully stuck out her tongue at Lin Qiong and said, "Fine, I'll let it go this time for Xi Lian's sake."
"However, if we combine into a train again next time..."
She suddenly changed the subject, deliberately drawing out the last syllable, and added, "The driver's seat must be mine!"
You're still thinking about this?
Lin Qiong glanced sideways at Xi Lian, who was smiling broadly beside him, and couldn't help but sigh.
He knew in his heart that if he continued to argue, it would never end, so he could only nod and agree: "Okay, okay, I won't argue with you. It's yours, it's all yours."
Xi Lian stood aside, and seeing that the two had stopped arguing, the smile on her lips deepened.
"Okay."
Xi Lian gently patted the backs of their hands, drawing their attention to her: "Lord Bai E is still waiting for us at the finish line."
She slowly raised her head, gazing at the crack in the sky in the distance, and spoke softly:
"It's time to set off, to embark on the final journey."
......
After a few minutes.
After everyone else had rested sufficiently, Lin Qiong and his group emerged from the ruins and headed towards the sweltering horizon.
But not long after they left the ruins, they encountered a familiar figure—Wan Di.
Seemingly noticing someone behind him, Wan Di slowly turned around. Upon seeing Lin Qiong and his group, a familiar faint smile appeared on his cold face.
After some conversation, Lin Qiong learned that the reason Wan Di had waited for them here was that he planned to fight against the "Iron Curtain" together with them.
Upon hearing this news, everyone agreed to Wan Di's proposal without any hesitation.
After all, more people mean more strength, and everyone understands that principle.
Later, when they received the ring from Wan Di, they were surprised to learn from him that there were other Golden Descendants waiting for them ahead.
So Lin Qiong and his group set off again, heading towards their destination.
As they continued to move forward, their ranks grew larger and larger, like a snowball rolling downhill.
Along the way, those familiar Golden Descendants—
"Trickery," "life and death," "sky," and "reason" have all gradually been incorporated into this team.
Ultimately, at the core of the imperial scepter.
Lin Qiong and his group finally met the man who had turned himself into firewood and burned himself through thirty million reincarnations—
White Calamity.
