After so many years, with the physical quality of human beings, it is difficult for them to reach those places with harsh conditions, and even if they do, it is difficult to stay for a long time, so in today's human history, there is no naturally generated space passage.

No one knows how long it has been since Death Valley became what it is today, but it has been nearly 200 years since his notoriety spread.

The vast white expanse in front of Ling Xiao's eyes was full of salt, and there was not even a drop of water at the bottom of the entire Bad Water Basin. Due to the long-term lack of rain, the salt layer here is very hard, and in some places it is extremely sharp, and if you are not careful, you may fall and get injured, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a mirror of hell.

Ling Xiao didn't carry the Ancient Winter Coffin with him this time, after entering the Badwater Basin, he directly borrowed the ability of Thunderbolt Fire Jonathan, no matter how high the temperature here in the Badwater Basin is, it is really nothing to a powerhouse who can burst out of thousands of degrees of heat at any time.

The Bad Water Basin is not small, at least about 30 kilometers in radius, and for the more detailed location, Luo Relei can't say clearly, she only remembers that it was in a pool in the basin that opened a spatial passage and walked out, as for where the pool is, she doesn't know too well.

But from a distance, the basin looked like water, but when I got closer, I realized that it was actually a salt flat, shining in the sun.

It was not easy to find the pool that Lorelei was talking about, but Ling Xiao was not in a hurry, and walked steadily in the basin step by step.

Behind him, there is also a backpack filled with water and food and drink, which looks like a real ordinary adventurer.

Although he didn't know what conditions would induce the appearance of the spatial crack, Ling Xiao was very careful with every step he took, and every time he took a step forward, the salt particles on the ground immediately shrouded within a few meters in front of him, as long as there was a slight abnormality, Ling Xiao could detect it.

It was precisely because of this caution that Ling Xiao walked extremely slowly, and when it was dark, he had only walked less than half of the distance, so he simply left, and with a dodge, he teleported back to the peak of Mount Whitney in the distance.

For the next few days, Ling Xiao had been patrolling the Bad Water Basin, but for several days, he had looked at all the places, and he didn't find any pools, let alone any spatial passages.

Until noon one day, not long after Ling Xiao came to the Bad Water Basin, he suddenly saw a pool of water in the basin, a pool of clear water.

There is really such a small bay of clear water in the Bad Water Basin, it is really strange, and what is even more strange is that this pool is not dry all the year round, quietly without a trace of water lines, because it is in the salt land, the water does not smell, and the reflection of the mountain is clearly visible in the water.

Ling Xiao stretched out his hand and scooped it up, washing his hands slightly, but what surprised him was that this pool of clear water was all fresh water, you know, this is in the center of the salt lake, there is such a pool of fresh water, it really can't help but make people feel extremely surprised.

Immediately after, Ling Xiao's brows furrowed tightly. Although this Death Valley Badwater Basin is not a world-famous tourist attraction, there are not a few people who come here every year to venture here, but why such a strange thing has never appeared on the Internet today, as if no one has ever known.

Not to mention the Internet, it is himself, he has been to this place several times, but he has not found the existence of this pool.

Ling Xiao couldn't help but touch his chin, and after thinking carefully for a while, he faintly had a clue, maybe it was related to time.

You know, the first few times he passed here, most of the time was at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, but now it's one o'clock in the afternoon.

Now that the existence of the pool has been discovered, Ling Xiao can naturally clearly sense the existence of the spatial passage, so directly above the pool, there is a spatial crack that is not very big, and it is still slowly shrinking.

Shrink?

Ling Xiao was shocked, the spatial crack here would shrink, this was something that Lorelei had never mentioned to him, and Ling Xiao had never known that there was such a thing, so he couldn't help but concentrate and continue to observe.

Ling Xiao stared at the spatial crack tightly, and finally in just half an hour, the spatial crack was completely closed, and the bay pool was completely gone.

I see, it turned out that the bay of lake water actually appeared with the appearance of the spatial crack, and disappeared with its disappearance, it seems that he is thinking about it.

Originally, in Ling Xiao's opinion, the appearance of the spatial crack must be related to the temperature in the Evil Water Basin, you must know that the highest temperature of the day is around three or four o'clock in the afternoon, so he will appear here half at noon, and only leave here at five or six o'clock in the afternoon.

And now it seems that the appearance of this bay lake is actually related to something else, no, it must also be related to the temperature, otherwise why in winter, when the temperature drops, the existence of pools and spatial passages has never been discovered here.

Ling Xiao was slowly pondering, if he wanted the spatial passage to appear here, it was indispensable to have the temperature, for example, in mid-July, the temperature here was at least above 50 degrees. And the time he appeared seems to be very short, and it seems to have something to do with time.

Perhaps the pond has appeared briefly in the summer, but those who can appear here above 50 degrees will inevitably see the appearance and disappearance of the pond as their own illusion or mirage-like existence.

Now that he had found the specific location of the spatial passage, Ling Xiao was no longer in a hurry, and began to observe the pattern of his appearance day by day.

Sure enough, the appearance of the space passage and the pool was only less than an hour and a half a day a day, and during this time, the temperature all exceeded sixty degrees, which was already very revealing.

Just like the clear spatial passage that only appeared when the stars of the nine kingdoms of the Greenwich Observatory converged, this small spatial passage for only one person to enter and exit here is also inevitably affected by the gravitational pull of the stars, which is the essence of the appearance and disappearance of the pool.

Of course, there must be other reasons for this, Ling Xiao didn't know how to explore it for a while, he just appeared here from 12 o'clock to 1:30 o'clock every day, observing the opening and closing of the spatial passage, slowly analyzing and pondering it, and the others had not yet had time to explore.

In fact, every time he came to the edge of the pool, Ling Xiao could always feel a faint threat, in this bay that seemed to be less than a foot deep, although he didn't know what the danger was, but Ling Xiao didn't intend to provoke it.

It is not easy to find a stable and regular space passage on Earth like this one, and it is possible to observe it at any time.

What if he provokes the danger under the pool and destroys this spatial passage, and Ling Xiao doesn't want to see any accidents at this time, the disintegration of S.H.I.E.L.D. is imminent, he doesn't want to miss this feast because of his recklessness, and no one can stop him from taking advantage of it.

During this period of time, although he has always focused on the spatial passage in the Badwater Basin, he is still always concerned about the affairs of the outside world.

After the Lorelei incident, Las Vegas was purged by S.H.I.E.L.D. from the inside out, and many long-time felons who had been hiding here were arrested.

However, none of the Pai Huang and other people were arrested, in order not to waste resources, after the purge, the large force of S.H.I.E.L.D. decisively gave up, leaving only a small team of elite men to stay here to continue to monitor Las Vegas, and soon after, Pai Huang appeared in Las Vegas again.

Only a small number of people know the news of Pai Huang's appearance, and the elite agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. who stayed here did not know whether they were unaware or for some other reason, and they did not take any action, which made the other forces in Las Vegas more and more afraid of Pai Huang.

Coulson's team completed Lorelei's mission and returned to dealing with anomalous events around the globe, and this time the problem arose with S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy.

One after another of the students at S.H.I.E.L.D. were frozen, and Fitz and Simmons cooperated with Ward to secretly investigate under the pretext of returning to their alma mater to give a speech.

In the end, it was revealed that two students, Donnie and Seth, had built the Superstorm Machine, and the machine was unstable during the experiment, causing the other students to be frozen.

And at the critical moment of the investigation, Donnie and Seth also found the buyer of the Super Storm machine, a billionaire Quinn.

Quinn had previously fought with Coulson's squad due to incidents, and now he wanted Seth and Donnie to demonstrate the power of the device at S.H.I.E.L.D.
