Qin Lun felt exhausted as he dragged Masta Xia ashore. Although there were no water-bound spirits entangling them in this swamp, the lake water seemed to have a kind of magic power that could absorb their energy. It was only a few hundred meters away, as if it had caused people to trek for hundreds of kilometers.

“Sand?” Qin Lun lay on the shore and adjusted his breathing. He inadvertently grabbed a handful of soil beneath him and discovered that there was no wet and muddy soil here. Instead, there was fine sand in his hand.

“Let’s go!” Mastasia rested for a while, but she recovered before him and stretched out her hand to pull him up.

“This is?” The two of them raised their heads and looked ahead, their faces revealing a trace of joy. The Highland Elves were right. They had indeed reached the entrance to the southern canyon deep in the Land of Death, where the Giant Demon’s Claw was located.

A steep wall stood in front of them like a city wall. The mosses that had not seen each other for a long time climbed up the mountain wall. Although the ferocious black rock on the mountain wall was shocking, it was more amiable than the life-threatening rowing sound behind him at this moment.

“Where’s the entrance?” Qin Lun and Masta Xia hurried two steps to catch up with the crowd in front of them.

“That shouldn’t be the entrance to the canyon, right? Why is it so seeping?” Winnie grabbed Rick’s arm and muttered with a frown.

Qin Lun fixed his gaze and hesitated, because the entrance in front of them did not look like a good place. It was said to be the entrance, but in fact, it was a conical crack on the mountain wall that was narrow on the upper side and wide on the lower side. It was only 1.5 meters tall and less than half a meter wide. It could only accommodate one person in and out. Moreover, it was so dark that one couldn’t even see one’s fingers.

“Perhaps this is some kind of magical beast’s nest, it has nothing to do with the entrance to the canyon. Why don’t we follow the two ends of the mountain wall to find the real entrance?” Largo suggested hesitantly.

Qin Lun couldn’t help but look back as he heard the approaching sound of paddling. His expression immediately froze as he shouted, “It’s too late. Hurry up and enter. The Ghost-Faced Squid is here.”

Everyone looked at each other and smiled bitterly. This sea beast’s willpower was truly astonishing. It had already swam ashore and was still persistent. There was nothing they could do. Even if there was a beast den in front of them, they could only go in and hide. They only hoped that the space inside was large enough to accommodate so many of them.

At the very least, judging from the size of the entrance, even if there were magical beasts inside, it should still be easier to deal with than the giant beast behind him.

Rick took the lead and bent down into the rift with his sword in hand. Rand was the second to follow in, a tiny flame rising from his finger. He needed to illuminate the front of the knight. Winnie could no longer maintain her Light Arts, so she had no choice but to support herself like this.

After entering the crack, everyone discovered that although it was relatively narrow, it appeared very deep. Although the ground was rugged and filled with sharp rocks, it was still winding and winding towards the mountains.

‘”

“Go to hell, haha!” Lago turned around and shouted loudly. A relaxed feeling of escaping death permeated the group, and everyone couldn’t help but laugh loudly.

“Unfortunately, our supplies have all been lost!” Winnie touched her shriveled belly. A sense of exhaustion arose spontaneously. After relaxing, she felt extremely hungry.

Actually, it wasn’t just her. Seeing Winnie’s actions, everyone couldn’t hold on any longer. They all sat down on the ground and rested.

“Haha, I still have some food here!” Qin Lun flipped his hands and a piece of meat as thick as a gasoline bucket appeared in his arms. It was actually the Ghost-Faced Squid tentacle that Rick had cut off back then.

“Haha, it can’t eat us, now it’s going to be eaten by us!” Lago laughed loudly, stood up, cleaned up the ground, and intended to build a grill out of stones.

“Unfortunately, there is no firewood here. Do you want to eat it raw?” Winnie looked around with a face full of regret. The female mage’s stamina had been exhausted. Normally, she would not eat this kind of food. Now, she had no choice but to eat meat and vegetables.

“Let me do it!” Qin Lun handed the tentacles of the Ghost-Faced Squid to Rand and took out a brown plant seed from his bosom. He looked around and pulled out a pile of fine soil from the rock peak, burying the seeds inside.

As a layer of green light emerged from Qin Lun’s palm, the plant seed began to germinate and grow. Soon, it turned into a vine that was more than a meter tall.

“Rand, it’s your turn!” Qin Lun smiled and pointed at the plants.

With a flip of his hand, the fireworks controlled the blazing flames and roasted the plants into a ball of charcoal. Everyone helped to put the charcoal into the stone grill built by Largo. Soon, the cracks on the cliff filled with the fragrance of meat.

Even after falling off for a long time, the Ghost-Faced Squid’s tentacles were still very resistant to fire. Fortunately, it was already half-cooked, and after another half an hour, it could finally be eaten.

“It’s really unpleasant!” Winnie frowned and struggled to tear apart the cut meat. The tentacles of the Ghost-Faced Squid tasted like rubber, full of resilience. As a legendary creature’s body, it didn’t seem delicious at all.

However, when it was eaten, everyone felt waves of heat rising from their stomachs, and their exhaustion gradually disappeared. This thing really contained a lot of biological energy, and it wasn’t poisonous. After eating a little, everyone was full.

In the end, half of the tentacles the size of a gasoline tank were left. Qin Lun put it back into his storage space with satisfaction and smiled at Hill and Rand.

[Reminder: Apostle 70053, you have collected an unrecorded legendary creature. Additional exploration rate is less than 0.001%. Cumulative settlement after return. Provisional settlement includes item rewards. The remaining Ghost-Faced Squid tentacles will be classified as Apostle Recovery items.]

Ghost-Faced Squid’s Tentacles (Legendary Quality): This is a top-grade regeneration treasure roasted by legendary creatures. It can recover 50% of HP and 70% of HP at the same time for 5 minutes (7 remaining). This was the first time he consumed this legendary food, permanently increasing Apostle’s physique by three points, strength and agility by a little.

“If I had known earlier, I should have picked up some too!” Rand rubbed his belly and said regretfully.

This was the first time they had seen such a high percentage of recovered food, and they could increase their stats by five points at a time. By placing the remaining seven portions on the market, it was clear that they could make up for the loss of the Meteor Pendant’s Magic Scroll.

“Haha, forget it. I saw it at that time. Other than the one Qin Lun picked up, the other amputated limbs are too big. There’s no way to put them in the storage space.” Hill patted Rand’s shoulder and comforted him.

After eating and drinking, everyone recovered a little, but none of them intended to continue. Lago patrolled around in a responsible manner and set up some small traps around him, treating this place as a temporary camp.

This cliff crack looked very deep. Although it might be the entrance to the canyon, no one dared to guarantee that there was any danger inside. It was obviously not suitable for him to continue on his journey in this state. It would be better to rest for one night before making any plans.

As everyone fell asleep exhausted, peace returned to the crack. A faint moonlight reflected from the lake in the distance. The surroundings were peaceful and peaceful. The previous journey of desperation seemed to have never happened. Now, it was like a dream.

After a night of silence, when Qin Lun opened his eyes again, a ray of bright light caused him to squint his eyes. Only after dawn did he realize that they weren’t too far away from entering the crack last night and could still hear the waves of the distant lake.

“You’re awake?” A pair of ladies’ leather boots appeared in front of Qin Lun, but it was covered in mud and could no longer be seen its original color.

Qin Lun raised his head and discovered that the person in front of him was Elves Mustacha of the Highlands. He immediately smiled and asked, “Are you feeling better?”

“It’s alright. The Ghost-Faced Squid meat I ate last night seems to have antidote effects!” Mustacha replied happily, pointing above their heads. “Look up there!”

Qin Lun narrowed his eyes and looked up. Apart from the ferocious rocks, he couldn’t see anything. He couldn’t help but spread his hands at Mastasia.

“Forget it, I knew you were a rookie!” Highland Elves curled his lips and explained to himself, “I’ve just checked the surroundings. It doesn’t seem to be a cave, but a canyon crack between two cliffs.”

“So we found the right place?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. Actually, everyone had only used this place as a refuge from the Ghost-Faced Squid’s pursuit last night. They never thought that it would actually be the entrance to the canyon of the Giant Demon’s Claw.

“Yes, I’ve only heard of a canyon entrance with a troll’s claw inside the Land of Death before. I didn’t expect it to be this kind of terrain.” “I really don’t know how the troll tribes in the mountains got in and out of the Land of Death through this place,” murmured Mustacha.

“Perhaps there is a bigger entrance around the beach!” Qin Lun said uncertainly, “Oh right, you said that the Giant Demon Tribe would often enter and exit the Land of Death … Then aren’t they afraid of the Ghost-Faced Squid’s hunt?”

“I don’t know. The Ghost-Faced Squid has great intelligence. If the Giant Demon can provide it with sacrifices from time to time, it is estimated that the two sides can reach a certain agreement!” Mastasia tilted her head and thought for a moment, giving an ambiguous reason.

As the two of them spoke, everyone woke up one after another, wiping their hazy eyes and looking at them.

“Should we continue forward, or should we go back to the beach and find another entrance!” Rick stretched his muscles and asked the two of them.

“Let’s move on. Mastasia said that this place is a crack between two cliffs. Perhaps we can enter the mountain range as well.” After pondering for a while, Qin Lun said, “It’s too dangerous to go out and look for it again. That Ghost-Faced Squid suffered so much that he might still be standing guard nearby.”

“Alright!” Rick shrugged his shoulders. That was all he asked. He remembered the thrill of last night. Even with his courage, he didn’t want to face that colossus again.

After recovering some energy, everyone set off for the crack. Mastasia was right. This crack was indeed not a cave. It was too deep inside. Moreover, it was extremely narrow outside. After walking for a while, everyone discovered that the path ahead had widened.

Most importantly, Winnie didn’t need to maintain the Light Spell anymore. As the road widened, the rocks above everyone’s heads became unobstructed. For the first time in so many days, a warm ray of sunlight fell on their shoulders.
