Chapter 339: All the way to the east
readx;
The Tracker Bird took Cao Ke's tracking team and kept shuttling through the jungle, while moving forward at a rapid pace, the Tracker Bird adjusted its direction! Soon, the Tracker Bird let out a cheerful cry, and a pair of small wings also violently retracted to the sides of its body, instantly increasing its speed to a new level, and rushing down along the direction of the sun in the sky!
Seeing this, Cao Ke hurriedly shouted at all the team members behind him: "The tracking bird has found the mark left by Karnaca, all the personnel speed up!
After speaking, Cao Ke quickly breathed a sigh of relief, strengthened his feet, and brought up a series of afterimages, bypassing the trees blocking the way in front of him, meandering forward like a spiritual snake, and chasing in the direction of the tracking bird!
As soon as Cao Ke's side speeded up, of course, Jessica, Mu Ling and the others couldn't be left behind, and everyone followed Cao Ke's instructions and accelerated their speeds, allowing themselves to keep up with Cao Ke's pace tightly!
After about a stick of incense, the tracking bird, which had been flying at a fast speed, finally slowed down, and finally flapped its little wings a few times and landed on top of a large rock!
Cao Ke and others soon caught up, when everyone found that the tracking bird fell on the stone, they also stopped their steps, Cao Ke stepped forward, squatted down, stretched out his palm, and the tracking bird standing on the big stone happily jumped on Cao Ke's palm, chirping non-stop.

Cao Ke frowned slightly, and set his eyes on the big stone. Jessica and the two daughters of Mu Ling also came up at this time, Jessica looked at Cao Ke, and then at the big stone on the ground, and asked with some confusion: "Cao Ke, what's wrong, is there anything strange about this stone?"
Cao Ke did not answer Jessica's question, but waved his hand, signaling her not to make a sound first, and then, Cao Ke circled around the big rock, and suddenly raised his foot, and raised his toes upward, and heard a loud sound of "boom!", and the big stone was completely flipped over by Cao Ke!
After the big stone was turned over, everyone understood why the tracking bird suddenly stopped and landed on the stone, because at the bottom of the big stone, a red "east" character appeared!
"East?" Jessica was slightly stunned when she saw this, and said, "Could this be a clue that Karnaca specially left for us?"
Cao Ke nodded and said: "It should be, judging from the dye written in this 'east' character, it is unique to our Cao family!
"Oh!" Jessica said suddenly: "Since you have confirmed that this is the clue left by Karnaca, then we don't need to hesitate anything, we all understand the meaning of the word 'east', the dragon detachment that Kanaka is tracking should be heading east!
"Wait a minute!" Mu Ling waved his hand and said, "It doesn't seem to be that simple! This 'east' character is a tracking clue left by Karnaca, I don't have any objection to this, but what I can't figure out is that after Kanaka left this 'east' character, why did he bother to detain this big stone to hide this 'east' character?"
As soon as Mu Ling finished speaking, Yin Tao, who was standing behind her, interjected with a smile: "This is also very easy to explain! Lord Kanaka should be afraid that others will find out the word 'east' he wrote, so he will turn over the stone! Because Lord Kanaka knows that Boss Cao has a tracking bird in his hand, even if Boss Cao can't see the words he left, the tracking bird will help Boss Cao find it!"
Mu Ling snorted and said, "Yes, what you said is very reasonable, Karnaca is afraid that others will find out the word 'east' he left behind, so the problem comes again! Karnaca is in the rear of the dragon team, and after him, it should be us, since it is us, why should Karnaca make another move and turn over the stone? When we come and see the words, we will naturally deal with them! Is Karnaca afraid that who will see his words?"
As soon as Mu Ling's question came out, all the people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer, indeed, Karnaca, who had always been in charge of tracking and probing in the Exterminator team, acted quite cautiously, he must have his own reasons for turning the stone over!
Jessica thought for a moment, shuddered, and said, "Could it be that when you left this word, Karnaca had already discovered something that we didn't expect?
"Another group of people?" Hua Qianli asked in surprise: "Could it be that on this continent of Selmir, in addition to the elves and us, there are still people who stand on the opposite side of the dragon clan and want to deal with the dragon clan?"
Cao Ke suddenly smiled and said coldly: "If Xiaoka's guess is correct, then I may know who this group of people outside of us is......"
After saying this somewhat inexplicable sentence, Cao Ke didn't explain much, he directly waved his hand and shouted in a low voice: "Okay, we have lost enough time! Don't forget, the way their dragon clan is advancing is flying! If we don't catch up quickly, when the dragon clan completes the task and returns to the camp, our plan will really fail!"
After speaking, Cao Ke raised his hand, and the tracking bird lying in his palm "fluttered!" It rose into the air and continued to fly eastward! Cao Ke quickly looked around at all the people, and on tiptoe, he followed the tracking bird and ran down!
Jessica and Mu Ling glanced at each other helplessly, and could only lead everyone to chase in the direction of Cao Ke and the Traced Bird!
In this way, under the guidance of the Follower Bird, Cao Ke and the others found one sign after another that Karnaca had left for them, and like the first one, Karnaca had written the mark on a large stone, and then turned the large stone upside down, in order to hide the direction of their pursuit.
After five days, everyone climbed over seven or eight mountain peaks, five or six jungles, and even two large rivers, and finally came to an orange-red stone forest!
Standing on the edge of this orange-red stone forest, looking at the lush green behind them, and the bare orange-red in front of them, all of them had a wonderful feeling! Nature is so magical, one step is staggered, two completely different scenery, as far as the eye can see, there are a few different customs in it!
Jessica, who had been following Cao Ke's side, said softly: "Further on, there is the unique fire landform of our Selmill State! You look at this fire landform, except for the jagged stones, there are no other animals and plants, and that is because in the center of this fire landform, there is a place that the people of Selmir call the 'Great Rift Valley'!"
"That's a veritable 'Great Rift Valley'! Above the Selmir Prefecture, there are dozens of such Great Rift Valleys, large and small, and among them, the shortest Rift Valley, as far as I know, is more than a few hundred kilometers! There is no bottom in sight at the bottom of every Great Rift Valley! Because the bottom of all Great Rift Valleys is full of hot underground magma flowing all year round! Not to mention ordinary people, even if a cultivator with a high level of cultivation goes down, he will definitely not be able to last long!"
"It is precisely because of the presence of magma at the bottom of these rift valleys that the land around it has become such a lifeless orange appearance!"
"Between me, it's getting late now, let's rest on the green side for the night, prepare enough water, recover our physical strength, and go through the orange plain and the Great Rift Valley tomorrow!"
Cao Ke thought for a moment, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I remember that not far from the road when we came, there was a small stream with clear water flowing through, let's set up camp on the edge of that stream tonight, and then continue to track it after dawn tomorrow!"
Hearing Cao Ke say this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at Jessica with grateful eyes, because in the past five days, everyone has basically not slept well, rested and rested, and has been running wildly with the tracking birds! There are many people who have prepared water bags when they set off, because of the huge physical exertion, the water in them has also been drunk, if Cao Ke still asks everyone to maintain their speed and cross the orange plain, then everyone may really fall behind!
Now, Cao Ke agreed to Jessica's suggestion to let the team stop and rest for a good night, so that when everyone's state is restored tomorrow, no matter how high the temperature in the Orange Plains is, everyone will have the confidence to rush over!
Soon, with the joint efforts of everyone, simple tents were erected, bonfires were set up by the stream, a pot of hot soup was cooked, and dry food was served.
Slowly, it was midnight, and almost everyone lay down in their tents, resting beautifully, and in many tents, there were even bursts of snoring, which showed how tired these people had been during this time......
At this time, Cao Ke was also pillowing his arms, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he kept leaning together, as if he might fall asleep at any time.
Suddenly, in the haze, Cao Ke heard a slight sound from Jessica's tent next to him, and then, there was also a sound in the tent of the wood spirit on the other side of him, which made Cao Ke frown inexplicably, and said in his heart: "It's been the middle of the night, the two girls don't sleep honestly, what are you going to do when you get up?"
Soon, the voices in the tent of the two women converged to the door of Cao Ke's tent, and then Jessica's voice sounded softly: "Mu Ling, go and see if Cao Ke and the others are asleep? Don't they are not asleep, wake up halfway, then it will really be over!"
"Yes!" Mu Ling replied solemnly, and then tiptoed towards Cao Ke's tent......
