Chapter 1375: Chapter 1375: The Giant Eye
The sky is not always calm; the higher the altitude, the more likely various unexpected situations will occur. Wind force, light, thunder, clouds, and fog can all cause various effects.
Seeing Qin Sisi’s worried look, Ye You couldn’t help but laugh. He raised his hand and flicked it, and a circular disc-shaped object appeared not far away, precisely the "Shadowless" flying device.
"I’ll take you up with the flying device. That should be okay, right?" Ye You smiled at Qin Sisi.
Qin Sisi stared at the flying device for a long ti, then asked, "Why didn’t you use it before?"
They had relied on their own strength to fly in the harsh environnt of the Deep Pupil Desert for so long. If they had used the flying device, it would likely have been smoother and faster.
Ye You explained, "It wasn’t to deliberately make you suffer; I just wanted to learn more about the Deep Pupil Desert, just like when we were in the No Delusion Deep Sea and Dark Forest. Only by understanding a place enough can we better handle future problems."
Qin Sisi thought about it. Ye You’s words indeed made so sense. If they had quickly flown west with the flying device, they wouldn’t have understood much about the Deep Pupil Desert and felt its depth, nor would they have encountered the Red Ant Clan and the iyin Ugly Fish, nor had the chance to obtain the Red Ant scepter and the iyin Ugly Fish’s inner core.
The Earth Spiritual Power contained in the Red Ant scepter and the Music Spiritual Power contained in the iyin Ugly Fish’s inner core would have just slipped past her.
Choosing a seemingly harder path might hide rare opportunities within the difficulties and dangers.
So Qin Sisi smiled charmingly at Ye You, saying, "I understand, don’t worry, I won’t bla you. Shall we set off now?"
"Of course." Ye You replied cheerfully.
The two entered the Shadowless flying device, and Ye You operated the device to fly up into the sky, beginning to gradually ascend.
Qin Sisi sat by the window, carefully looking down at the desert below, but all she saw was endless yellow sand, without a trace of the eye that the iyin Ugly Fish had ntioned.
She couldn’t help feeling a bit unsure, wondering if the iyin Ugly Fish was deliberately using so strange words to deceive them.
Ye You continued to lift the flying device higher, and the color of the sky began to grow darker. Even though the sun was bright, the surrounding sky was gloomy and blurred, as if the sunlight could not reach this part of the sky.
It wasn’t until they reached ten thousand ters high in the air that Qin Sisi finally saw several rings forming an arc. She blinked hard and tried to look down, her expression increasingly shocked, quickly raising her head to shout to Ye You, "Look quickly!"
Both looked down together, only to see amidst the endless yellow sand an eye, round as ever, staring deeply at the sky.
It was composed of several large concentric circles, one nested within the other, with distinct layers, resembling eyelids embracing the sclera, the sclera surrounding the iris, and the iris encasing the pupil.
More mysteriously, on the outer edge of the largest circle were small streaks, like the "eye’s" eyelashes, making the eye even more vivid.
The legend the iyin Ugly Fish heard was true; the Deep Pupil Desert was indeed a giant eye.
In the very center of the "eye," it wasn’t the yellow of the sand but the black of the rock, indicating that it wasn’t desert there.
The color presented by each concentric circle around was different, showcasing the complexity of the terrain and environnt in the center of the Deep Pupil Desert.
At the sa ti, Qin Sisi and Ye You roughly judged their current position.
Just as the iyin Ugly Fish said, even though they had travelled for many days, they were still on the outskirts of the Deep Pupil Desert, and they needed to keep heading west.
The center of that "eye" was indeed to their west, as they had flown high enough; there was quite a distance between them and the central part of the "eye."
Having obtained the desired information, Ye You operated the flying device to land and then turned to Qin Sisi, asking, "Saint Empress, should the upcoming journey be with the flying device, or should I fly with you?"
Qin Sisi blinked teasingly, saying, "You decide, anyway you’re the one exerting effort; I don’t have to do anything."
Ye You couldn’t help but chuckle, reaching out to hold her delicate, soft body onto his shoulder, saying gently, "Then I’ll carry you; I like carrying you, like when you carried
back then."
Speaking, he leapt out of the flying device, put away the Shadowless flying device again, and then gathered magic wings to continue flying west with Qin Sisi.
They still traveled by night and burrowed into the yellow sand below for rest by day.
Along the way, they encountered many tough and dangerous situations, facing various demonic beasts. Luckily, not only did they manage to turn danger into safety, but they also gained a lot.
The Demon Beast’s internal alchemy they collected made them increasingly adapted to the harsh environnt of the desert, and their attribute magic also enhanced.
Qin Sisi couldn’t level up due to a curse, while Ye You relied on a substantial wealth of battle experience and the power of inner cores, upgrading from Low-level Magic Lord to Interdiate Magic Lord.
Ye You was afraid Qin Sisi would be depressed, so he constantly tried to make every effort to cheer her up.
Among the five elents, earth produces tal; the Deep Pupil Desert was evidently Earth Attribute, and beneath these vast yellow sands, various rich ore must be concealed.
Knowing Qin Sisi was interested in forging art, Ye You then was in no hurry to travel, using magic power to detect whether there were high-quality ores beneath the sands whenever they had ti.
When the ore quality is sufficiently good, it naturally also contains so spiritual power; reaching the level of a Demon Lord, if one is earnest and focused, they can feel remote subtle fluctuations of spiritual power.
Efforts rewarded those with dedication; as Ye You walked and searched, he actually discovered a mineral deposit, but the location was very deep underground.
Ye You’s Earth Escape Skill was, of course, fine. After Qin Sisi absorbed the Earth Spiritual Power from the Red Ant scepter, her Earth Magic’s power greatly increased, and the skill in Earth Escape naturally beca more proficient.
So, the two of them dived deep underground and extracted quite a bit of ore, waiting for Qin Sisi to practice her forging art.
Underground exploration was not smooth sailing; the deeper the depth, the greater the soil’s pressure, and the harder the Earth Escape Skill was to use. By the ti they finally reached the place where the ore was buried, the two had nearly reached their physical limits.
Relying on Ye You’s elixir, they alleviated a considerable amount of physical and magical power consumption, taking the chance to dig out a lot of ore and stored it in Ye You’s Portable Space and Qin Sisi’s storage ring.
This mineral deposit was vast; even if their Portable Space and storage ring could hold many things, they couldn’t take all the ore away.
They could only do their best, accept what they had collected, and, after gathering enough ore, use Earth Escape Skill to return to the surface.
