Immortality Starts From Making Money.

After a full night's rest, at dawn, all the caravans departed from their base and entered the Desert of Fallen as if they were going to war.

The air was still.

Every guard had their hands at the hilt of their weapons. Each caravan group moved in a tight formation.

The yellow sand softened under the hooves of the horses. The Desert of Fallen was peaceful and quiet.

Dunes rose and fell with gentle wind dancing over them in the early morning. But everyone knew this was all just a facade.

Many had lost their lives due to the peaceful facade, buried beneath the dunes. Under the dunes were many horrifying beasts, ready to pounce on their prey with primal ferocity.

The Desert Scorpion was one of the horrifying threats of the desert. They moved in packs.

Their sturdy pincers could cut through almost anything and their venom was almost impossible to survive.

Inside the desert, their movements were swift and calculated. When their prey fell, they gave it no time to retaliate before dragging it deep into the ground.

As for Sandbone Worms, they were feared by all. Even the Desert Scorpion would flee in their presence.

Unlike the Desert Scorpion that moved in packs, the Sandbone Worms were solitary.

Most of the time, they never left their home, hundreds of meters below the dunes.

However, when they came out to feast, their hunger was difficult to satiate and they went on a killing rampage.

A single Sandbone Worm had a length close to 500 meters, resembling a massive serpent.

The Sandbone Worm did not have any eyes. Its head was made of deadly jagged round teeth that could devour anything.

Its movements were fast and swift, appearing at any location within minutes.

It could burrow deep beneath the scorching sand, leaving no trail behind.

When it appeared, it swallowed everything around its ten-meter radius, making it a nightmare to encounter.

With no way to track the Sandbone Worm, many caravans moved as slowly as possible in the desert.

According to legend, the Desert of Fallen was not originally a desert but a beautiful grass plain.

Legends told that two experts fought and their aura turned the beautiful grass plain into desert.

As for the terrifying Sandbone Worm, legends say they were nothing but ordinary worms that managed to feast on one of the expert's blood, turning them into horrifying monsters.

For the last threat, it was the Ghost Face Sandstorm. A sandstorm unlike anything.

It could appear anywhere and disappear in a blink.

The real terror of the Desert of Fallen.

Anyone lost inside the Ghost Face Sandstorm was forever lost. Their bodies were never found or recovered.

Many experts had tried to discover the mysteries beyond the horrifying Ghost Face Sandstorm but failed.

When the Ghost Face Sandstorm appeared, its height would be over 2 km and its length—tens of kilometers.

At the center of the storm was an eerily ghost face that swallowed everything on its path to oblivion.

With all these terrors, to overcome the danger, the various merchants came to an agreement to always travel together when passing through the Desert of Fallen.

With the Thousand Wealth Chamber having the strongest force, all the groups did not travel far from them.

Leader Peng's caravan was slightly a few meters behind the Thousand Wealth Chamber to their right, while Leader Shi's group maintained the left.

As for other groups, they scattered around them.

Inside the carriage, Mo Jian watched the outside scene without any change in his expression.

He knew the plot of these cunning leaders but was too lazy to speak.

Besides, he was not without a plan.

If they thought they could use him as a shield, they were wrong.

Quickly, they had traveled tens of kilometers deep into the Desert of Fallen.

Everywhere was quiet and the sun hung over them as if monitoring their movement.

Suddenly, the Thousand Wealth Chamber stopped in their tracks and every caravan also stopped.

Why did they stop? They all wondered in their hearts.

Just as they were wondering what was going on, they saw the servants coming out of the carriage setting up makeshift tents.

Seeing this, all the caravans were stunned. How could they think of relaxing in such a dangerous place?

Many were furious and wanted to curse the Thousand Wealth Chamber. Unfortunately, the might of the Thousand Wealth was too terrifying and they could only swallow down their anger.

Left with no choice, they all stood frozen in their spot as they watched the Thousand Wealth Chamber eating their lunch.

Leader Shi left his carriage to meet Leader Peng and they had a short conversation.

Shortly, Leader Peng left his carriage and approached the Thousand Wealth Chamber.

"Please return. Our Young Master is resting and will not see anyone," the Old Withered Man said coldly before Leader Peng could open his mouth.

Shocked, Leader Peng opened his mouth but words failed to come out. Left with no choice, he returned to his carriage.

When the other leaders saw this, they were confused. Are they not in a temporary alliance? Why the cold shoulder?

Although confused, everyone maintained their silence. They were all waiting for the Thousand Wealth Chamber to resume their journey.

But to their shock, for the next two hours, the Thousand Wealth Chamber were still relaxing at the spot as if they came to the desert for a picnic.

Inside the carriage, Mo Jian watched the scene and chuckled. He had to commend their patience.

His plan was to make them impatient and then, they would leave. Unfortunately, they were more determined than he expected.

He took his teacup and prepared to take a sip when his Spirit Link vibrated.

'Movement detected from the east.'

The message was from Elder Bai, and without hesitating, he commanded the Old Withered Man to depart at once.

Quickly, the command was passed to all the guards. The servants outside quickly packed everything and returned to their carriages.

Watching all this, all the various leaders had a victorious smile on their faces.

'Finally, our meat shield is up,' they thought.

But to their dismay, the Thousand Wealth Chamber caravan shocked them.

Their Cloud Chase Horses shot forward like a broken arrow, leaving a thick yellow dust in their trail.

'What is going on?'

'This is foolish!'

This kind of speed would alert the Desert Scorpion, which would be detrimental to their journey.

Conflicted, many did not know whether to follow them or wait.

Leader Shi turned and looked at Leader Peng.

"What should we do?"

Leader Peng thought for a moment and responded, "Let's take it slowly. Since they chose to draw attention to themselves, let them, while we continue at the same pace."

Leader Shi agreed with his conclusion, and their group continued at the same pace while most of them were grinning with a cunning smile.

Unknown to them, from the east, thousands of Desert Scorpions were racing toward them at an alarming speed.
