Hearing Lu Yu’s words, Xu Yuan and the others were stunned.
“This guiding crystal can do such a thing?”
“If that’s the case, won’t we be able to easily find the mines occupied by the Truth Department?”
“That’s great! Let’s get started!”
“With this crystal, things will be much easier!”
Lu Yu looked at the crowd and nodded. “That’s right. Next, we’ll rely on the guidance of this crystal to continue moving forward!”
The others nodded to express their approval.
Although their rest time was short, they didn’t say anything. After all, they definitely had to suffer this bit of hardship to catch up to Lu Yu. Otherwise, keeping up with Lu Yu’s speed of growth would be impossible!
“Alright, check your belongings. Once you’re ready, we’ll set off.”
After that, Wang Meng and the rest began to check their equipment and supplies.
They didn’t lack most resources, such as food, tents, potions, scrolls, etc.
After all, those who could come here were all children of wealthy families. Only a few were from poor backgrounds, like Lu Yu.
In terms of supplies, they would always bring an ample amount.
At that moment, Jiang Ning walked towards them.
“I see that you’ve gathered again. Are you planning to set off again?” She asked with a smile.
“That’s right, we’re leaving right now,” Lu Yu said, nodding.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning’s smile froze. “I was just joking. I didn’t expect you to set off this quickly.”
“It hasn’t even been a day. Shouldn’t you all rest for a while longer?”
“No, time is of the essence.”
If the Truth Department knew that Lu Yu had gotten the guiding crystal, they would definitely make preparations in advance.
Duan Ying’s failure to return to their base or the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce’s having contacted them might cause them to make preparations.
Therefore, Lu Yu felt that it was best to leave as soon as possible, just in case.
If he missed this opportunity, it would be difficult to catch them by surprise again!
Jiang Ning looked at Lu Yu and sighed helplessly. “Alright, I won’t stop you then. But once you’ve set off, you must contact us if you’re in danger. We’ll send reinforcements immediately!”
Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders helplessly. “The battle will probably be over one way or another by the time you get there. Don’t worry. If we can’t win, we’ll try our best to use the teleportation scroll to come back.”
Jiang Ning nodded and didn’t say anything.
“Are you all ready?” Lu Yu asked his teammates.
“I’m ready. We can set off at any time!”
Lu Yu took the lead and started to walk toward the gate.
Soon, they arrived at the main entrance.
Lu Yu looked at the guard beside him and said, “Open the gate; we’re going out.”
“Yes! Captain!”
The guard responded and pressed a button.
After that, the gate began to rumble open, and the massive iron gate was pulled up.
“We have to be prepared for a big fight. Such an important mine must have a lot of people guarding it!” Lu Yu stated.
“Understood, we’ll do our best!” Xu Yuan added.
Lu Yu took the lead and walked out of the gate, leaving the stronghold with Xu Yuan and the others following closely behind.
Soon, they entered the dense forest and began to advance quickly.
Every time Lu Yu advanced a certain distance, he would stop, take out the guiding crystal, correct their direction, and then continue.
“The foot of the snow mountain is not far ahead in this direction. I think the temperature will drop a lot.” Lu Yu said.
Wang Meng patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry. We’ve all brought warm clothes. Besides, we’re not weak. We don’t have to be afraid of the usual cold.”
A cultivator’s physical fitness was much higher than an ordinary person’s. Even in winter, they didn’t need to wear thick clothes unless the temperature was particularly low.
“I guess it’ll be hard to find the mine today. It’s already late in the afternoon.”
Lu Yu raised his head and looked at the sky. Lu Yu could still see the piercing sunlight through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves.
“It looks like we’ll have to spend the night in the wilderness.”
Lu Yu said.
“Let’s continue walking forward and see if we can find a suitable place to set up camp.” Xu Yuan said as he looked ahead.
“This is a dense forest. It’s not easy to find a good place.”
When Wang Meng heard this, he suddenly laughed and said, “Brother, leave it to me. I promise to clear out a large open space in a few minutes.”
He waved the sword in his hand, acting majestic as he spoke.
“Right, you’ve got a good weapon. Look at how smug you are.” Xu Yuan rolled his eyes at him.
Wang Meng chuckled and scratched his head, not saying anything.
“I’ll adjust our direction again.”
Lu Yu took out the guidance crystal and let it lock onto a new direction, and everyone continued to move forward.
“Boss, do you think the enemies in the mine will be powerful? After all, these crystals have such a powerful effect.” Wang Meng asked.
Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders. “It doesn’t matter. No matter how strong they are, we have to fight them head-on. I won’t let them go!”
Lu Yu had many reasons to deal with the Truth Department.
One of the most important reasons was that the shield Duan Ying held was a scale from the Death Spirit Dragon!
To put it another way, the Truth Department was somehow linked to the Death Spirit Dragon!
This was the only clue he had about the Death Spirit Dragon so far, and he could not give up.
As long as he continued to head in the direction of the Truth Department, he would definitely be able to find the dragon’s body and let it return to its own body!
The night gradually fell, and the surroundings began to darken. Danger lurked everywhere in the forest at night, so they had to be extra careful.
“It’s already dark. I guess we’ll spend the night here.”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, Wang Meng took out his storage ring and released a few tents on the ground.
“I’ll cut down all the trees around here and make some space.” Wang Meng took out his sword and walked toward the nearby trees.
The sharp blade easily cut through the tree as if it were paper.
The trees fell one by one, creating an ample open space in the surrounding area.
Xu Yuan and the others arranged the tents properly and set up a bonfire in the middle of the tents. The light of the burning bonfire illuminated their surroundings.
The temperature was getting low as they were already close to the snow mountain. After the fire started, they all sat around it and began warming themselves.
Lu Yu sat by the bonfire while Yun Zirou volunteered to go hunting.
“I’ll see if there are any ferocious beasts around. I’ll hunt two and roast them for dinner.” Yun Zirou then stood up.
Su Qing looked at her curiously and asked, “Didn’t we bring a lot of food?”
“Can the food we brought be compared to the animals in these ancient ruins? The meat of the animals here is very delicious.”
Yun Zirou licked her lips, turned around, and walked into the forest.
