The demon race has been eliminated, and the four brothers of Ao Guang have departed to attend to the Dragon Clan's affairs.
Xu Fang was not overly concerned about this. According to the trajectory of the Great Desolation, the Dragon Clan would eventually establish their roots in the Four Seas. Even if they were to submit to the Heavenly Court, the Four Seas would remain firmly under the Dragon Clan's control, akin to an autonomous region governed by the Dragon Clan as powerful regional officials. Therefore, his befriending of the four brothers, who would become the future Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, and his guidance to them was not a sudden burst of benevolence, nor a waste of time. Once he refined Penglai Island into his dojo, he would have good neighbors. Wouldn't it be wonderful to build a beautiful home together?
"The matter of Penglai Island is provisionally resolved. I can now venture further," Xu Fang mused. In the past, when he spoke of traveling the Great Desolation, his heart would still linger on Penglai Island, wondering how his silly elder sister was faring there. Now that such worries were no longer present, it was naturally time to seize this opportunity for a grand tour and thorough exploration of the Great Desolation. As for where to go, Xu Fang was too lazy to ponder and simply opened the chat group. He had no particular destination in mind; he would rely on the treasures within the group. After a quick perusal, Xu Fang's gaze fell upon two items. The coordinates of these two treasures were the closest to him, and they were at the same distance, clearly indicating they were together. Xu Fang clicked on the icon of one of the treasures, and its information interface immediately appeared before him.
[Four Seas Bottle]
[Grade: Ordinary Innate Spirit Treasure.]
[Ownership: None yet.]
[Current Location: East Sea, to the host's east. The system map continuously navigates for the host.]
[Description: This treasure is named the Four Seas Bottle, and its power is as its name suggests: it can hold the waters of the Four Seas within the bottle. This is a water-elemental treasure, specifically effective against fire-elemental spells and treasures.]
After reading, Xu Fang quickly clicked on the information for the other treasure.
[Dew and Mist Qiankun Net]
[Grade: Acquired Supreme Treasure.]
[Ownership: None yet.]
[Current Location: East Sea, to the host's east. The system map continuously navigates for the host.]
[Description: A wet net-like covering that expands boundlessly when cast, imbued with water that extinguishes all flames. Dew and mist are true water, and water can overcome fire, thus this treasure is a water-elemental artifact, specifically effective against fire-elemental spells and treasures.]
Xu Fang quickly finished reviewing the information on these two treasures. After searching his memory, he found little recollection of them. "Indeed, one is an ordinary Innate Spirit Treasure, and the other is an Acquired Supreme Treasure. Even if I had heard of them, I would have forgotten," Xu Fang shook his head. The Great Desolation was filled with countless treasures, and he only knew of a few famous ones. These two treasures had clearly been relegated to some forgotten corner of his memory, indicating they were not particularly renowned. However, even if these two treasures seemed obscure, since they were located together, Xu Fang would not let them pass. Who would ever have too many treasures? Whether they were useful or not, he would collect them first!
However, before departing, Xu Fang felt a touch of doubt and inwardly inquired, "System, what does this system map mean?" Xu Fang looked at the newly appeared system map, puzzled as to why it hadn't been present when he was searching for the Liang Tian Chi and the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
"Ding!"
"Because the host successfully found the Liang Tian Chi and the Ruyi Jingu Bang according to their coordinates and made them official members of the chat group, the mission of 'Great Desolation Treasure Hunter' was triggered."
"Therefore, to better assist the host in finding treasures and expanding the chat group, the system has activated the Great Desolation Treasure Map. Please continue your efforts!"
The system's mechanical voice responded to Xu Fang's question. Xu Fang was overjoyed to hear this. Such a good thing existed? He quickly found a treasure icon in the chat group and clicked on it. On the treasure's information interface, he found the current location section and clicked on the map icon behind it.
Instantly, the scene before him changed dramatically. A massive map appeared, with a cursor indicating the location of the treasure. "Buzhou Mountain? This treasure is too far away. Let's check the location of those two treasures from earlier." Xu Fang shook his head. He was currently in the East Sea, and Buzhou Mountain was extremely far away.
With a slight thought, Xu Fang saw the map cursor on the screen move rapidly, and in a short while, it settled on a location, precisely where the two treasures he had just mentioned were. The large map cursor flickered, and the icons of the two treasures beneath the cursor emitted a faint glow. Near these two treasures, another cursor was also flashing, and two treasures upon it emitted a faint glow. These were the Liang Tian Chi and the Ruyi Jingu Bang. Xu Fang immediately understood. This was his current location.
"If only this treasure map could be placed on the side, not obstructing my view," Xu Fang thought. That way, he wouldn't have to check the treasure coordinates in the chat group every few steps like before to determine his direction. He could simply glance at this map. As Xu Fang's thoughts shifted, the treasure map suddenly rapidly shrunk, and soon it was hovering beside Xu Fang. Xu Fang was delighted. So, this treasure map moved according to his will?
"This treasure map is truly wonderful!" Xu Fang rejoiced. Not only did it provide automatic navigation when searching for treasures, eliminating the need to frequently open the chat group, but with this treasure map, he no longer had to scan the list of treasure members to find the closest one. By simply looking at the treasure map, he could clearly see his current location and what treasures were around him. All he had to do was follow the treasure map floating beside him to find the treasures, as the route was already planned once he set his destination.
"This treasure map is indeed an indispensable treasure for finding treasures and traveling the Great Desolation!" Xu Fang mused. This treasure map was not just for assisting in treasure hunting; it could also help him avoid people he didn't wish to encounter, based on the locations and ownership of the treasures marked on the map. After all, this treasure map was calculated and updated in real-time.
"It seems this treasure hunting journey is not only making me stronger but also allowing me to upgrade the system and fully unlock the functions of the chat group," Xu Fang thought. Finding two treasures had provided him with such a convenient assistant. In the future, he would need to search for more treasures to enhance himself and continuously upgrade the chat group system. It was truly a win-win situation. Xu Fang suddenly felt his future was bright and filled with ambition.
"Let me do a good job as a Great Desolation Treasure Hunter, a profession full of promise!"
