Devour: Emperor Yan

Six streaks of light swiftly swept across the void before stopping and revealing their forms.

It was Lin Kun and his group of six.

At this moment, they gazed at the distant mountains ahead, a look of awe appearing in their eyes.

The distant mountains appeared as if shrouded in a blanket of snow, creating a dark and gloomy scene.

No, to be precise, it wasn't snowflakes at all, but a gale with a lot of stones mixed in, and countless tiny stones flying around!

Meanwhile, a thick layer of cumulus clouds covered the mountains, with countless electric snakes darting and flowing within them, as if they were about to strike with lightning at any moment.

"According to the map, that's Wind and Thunder Canyon ahead." Thor held his breath.

"With cumulus clouds of lightning hanging in the sky for so long, there's probably no other place in this world of thunder besides the Wind and Thunder Canyon where you can see such a sight," Hong said, squinting his eyes.

Luo Feng watched with bated breath, while Lin Kun's expression also became much more serious.

Wind and Thunder Canyon is the core and central place of this world of thunder, and also the most dangerous place!

However, one of the items required for the Space Apprentice Mercenary Assessment, the Windhorn Stone, can only be obtained from within the Wind and Thunder Canyon.

Of the adventurer teams that successfully traversed most of the Thunder World to reach this point, perhaps only one in ten survived, but those who did arrive were undoubtedly all elites.

......

"Let's go!" Lin Kun landed first.

This time, he led the way.

The six of them stopped flying and instead cautiously and slowly walked towards the Wind and Thunder Canyon.

As they continued their journey, perhaps aware of the dangers of the Wind and Thunder Canyon, no ferocious beasts appeared in the vicinity of this area.

No plants can survive here; as far as the eye can see, there are only bare rocks and rocky mountains.

The stone was pitch black, with occasional streaks of silver.

Lin Kun walked in front, with Luo Feng and the other four following closely behind, swaying as they entered the raging wind.

"The wind is so strong!" Luo Feng was unsteady on his feet.

"What level of wind is that?" Thor and Hong couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Even Lin Kun shrunk his size to less than two meters tall to minimize his exposed area.

What Earth calls a category 10 typhoon or natural disaster is like a gentle breeze to a star-level powerhouse.

Compared to this, it's nothing.

At this moment, Luo Feng, Lei Shen, and Hong were even unsteady on their feet, which speaks volumes.

Once here, Lin Kun had to be careful.

"According to the map description, the winds in Wind and Thunder Canyon are stronger the closer to the center and the bottom."

"The wind at the very center, at the bottom, is like a sharp blade, containing terrifying power. Even a cosmic-level expert who enters it will be torn to shreds by the gale and will undoubtedly die!"

"The most dangerous part of the bottom, covered by the gale, is where the most wind-blown rocks are."

"Of course, many wind-blown stones will also fly through the air with the strong winds."

Thor shouted, "The most dangerous thing in the entire Wind and Thunder Canyon is the lightning in the cumulus clouds above. If lightning strikes and you're unlucky enough to be hit, even a weaker domain lord will die instantly!"

"There's virtually no chance of survival for beings at the cosmic level, let alone for us celestial beings. So, what do you all think we should do to get that Windstone?"

Lin Kun replied, "Let's go into the canyon first and see what the situation is like. As long as we are careful, with the overall strength of our team, obtaining a few Windstones shouldn't be too difficult."

At this moment, Luo Feng said, "There are a total of 1093 humans within a 20-kilometer radius around us."

"So many?" The group was quite surprised to hear this.

Looking around, I could only vaguely see two or three small teams, about twenty or thirty people in total.

"Most of the teams are near the canyon and they've all hidden themselves, so it's hard to spot them unless you look closely," Luo Feng explained.

This information was all discovered by Babata through scanning with detection instruments; Luo Feng was merely recounting it.

"Understood." Lin Kun and the others nodded.

Then continue onward.

......

Stepping into the canyon area.

As far as the eye could see, all that could be seen was barren land.

The rocks on this mountain range are almost entirely black, with only occasional streaks of silver.

Lin Kun and his group of six proceeded cautiously, remaining vigilant about their surroundings at all times.

In the very center of this mountain range, it was as if a god wielding a giant sword had cleaved the entire mountain range in two, creating a narrow canyon.

This enormous canyon, which looks as if it were cleaved by a knife, is the Wind and Thunder Canyon.

A powerful and terrifying gale raged and howled within, carrying with it a large number of flying, crackling stones.

Among them were some wind-shaped stones mixed in.

Hidden on both sides of the canyon and in various places along the mountain walls are many people. They are the younger generation from various families, forces, and planets in the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield.

They are the best of the younger generation in their respective factions, elites, but they have not yet become true powerhouses.

This is their first test on the path to becoming a strong person.

Such people are easy to identify; they are usually at the low level of the Eternal Star level, but they are accompanied by several bodyguards at the ninth level of the Eternal Star level.

Some even have eight or nine bodyguards at the ninth level of the Hengxing star, which clearly indicates their noble status!

People like Luo Feng, Lei Shen, and Hong are considered very low-key and ordinary here.

There were three people, accompanied by three level nine bodyguards of the Hengxing star.

Of course, Lin Kun's so-called "bodyguard" is on the higher end of the spectrum.

Ordinary people can't afford to hire him, and they certainly don't have that kind of influence.

Even if the prince of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom came, it wouldn't work unless more money was offered!

......

Ok?

Lin Kun, who was walking, suddenly had a sudden thought and reached out his hand.

His arm and hand instantly enlarged, reaching out more than ten meters, and swiftly grabbed something before shrinking back quickly.

Looking down, in his palm was a smooth stone about the size of a normal person's fist.

Upon seeing this, Luo Feng and the others also crowded around to look.

The stone had a smooth surface and was black overall, except for a strange blue layer on its surface that looked like a coating.

The ordinary stones here are all black, or black stones with a hint of silver.

Only the surface of the wind-shaped stone has a deep blue halo.

According to the information, this Windhorn Stone is a strange stone that was struck by lightning but did not turn into powder. Instead, it absorbed a trace of the lightning's power and was thus formed.

"The Windstone, this is the Windstone," Thor said. "It's almost exactly the same as depicted in the picture."

"I didn't expect to get one so easily." Luo Feng gave a thumbs up and praised, "Brother, your reaction speed and keen observation are amazing!"

Hong and Thor nodded in agreement.

"No problem, just basic stuff."

Lin Kun smiled, casually handed the Wind Horn Stone to Thor and the others to study, and after looking around, said, "Luo Feng, ask Babata if he can find a good place to hide and wait for them to come to him, just like the other teams."

"Otherwise, it's not good for us to stay outside all the time. If we're unlucky enough to get struck by lightning, it could be fatal."

"Wait a moment, Babata is searching." Luo Feng nodded.

Soon.

"Luo Feng, this is a map. The location marked on the map is a very good spot. It would be best if your team hid there," Babata informed Luo Feng.

Luo Feng looked down at the computer screen on his arm.

"Found a good place, follow me," Luo Feng said in a low voice, then walked ahead to lead the way.

Lin Kun and the others followed behind.
