Chapter 327: Comatose blonde beauty
Since there was no definite news, Lu Yao could only rely on himself to find it.
Fortunately, his divine consciousness was now tempered in the Duomo of Milan, and although the scope of his exploration was not expanded, the intensity and duration of his knowledge were much enhanced.
If Lu Yao's divine sense used to only last for ten minutes before he could retract his consciousness for a while, now he could use it for at least half an hour.
Lu Yao's agile gallop galloped through the forest belt that was opened up by the local residents to facilitate the planting of orchards, and in just ten minutes, he climbed to the position of the volcano above 900 meters above sea level.
From here on, Lu Yao basically couldn't see all kinds of vineyards and orchards, and the trees on the hillsides were verdant, and the trees that grew the most were all kinds of trees.
As far as Lu Yao saw, there were chestnut trees, beech, oak trees, pine trees, birch trees, and so on.
There weren't many regular roads here, which caused him a lot of trouble and slowed him down.
Since it was inconvenient to walk on the ground, Lu Yao simply jumped high, and used the light body technique and the wind resistance technique to step on the treetops and gallop all the way up, but he didn't expect that in this way, the speed would be even faster than just now.
Although Lu Yao didn't know exactly where the Spirit Fruit Tree grew in, according to Jerome's description, if there was magma in the valley, it would definitely not be in the middle of the mountainside.
The most likely place is above 2,000 meters above sea level, and only those places where magma can remain in the valley after the eruption.
After another quarter of an hour, under Lu Yao's divine sense, the trees near this place were very sparse, only sparsely scattered shrubs, and more places were covered with volcanic deposits such as gravel, stones, volcanic ash and volcanic cinders.
There is no need to look at the map, Lu Yao also knows that this place is close to the top of the mountain, at least more than 2,000 meters above sea level.
From here, Lu Yao had to increase his attention, keep his divine sense in a state of diffusion detection, and pay attention to whether there were any cracks formed after the volcanic eruption, and it was very likely that those magma tunnels were hidden behind those cracks.
Lu Yao was like a swift cheetah on the desolate rocks, his divine sense shrouded in a circle of one mile below, and everything was hidden.
But even so, compared to the whole of Mount Etna, it is only a small place.
At this moment, Lu Yao was extremely nostalgic for the divine consciousness of the Jindan period in his previous life, which was enough to cover a range of a hundred miles, just like a small radar, it was much easier to find things.
Lu Yao tried his best to avoid the winding mountain road and the route where the cable car was located, and looked for the dangerous and steep mountain road.
According to the clues provided by Jerome, the lava-filled valley must not be on the tourist traffic route, otherwise it would have been discovered by others for hundreds of years.
Combined with the dangers such as the Death Canyon introduced by Deqiao, they were all deviating from the winding mountain road, and Lu Yao had even more reason to believe that the valley with the Soul Fruit Tree would be in a more hidden place.
Lu Yao plans to explore the locations of the so-called Death Canyon that Deqiao told him today, and if there is no place he wants to find, he will make another plan.
There are more than 200 eruption craters on Mount Etna, and they are not all concentrated at the summit, but from about 2,000 meters above sea level, and eruption craters can occur in various locations.
However, many of the craters on the mountainside are remnants of historical eruptions, and their surfaces appear quiet and not as active as those on the summit.
Lu Yao took out a map of Mount Etna, which he had specially purchased during the day when he was visiting Catania.
Then finding the direction that Deqiao told him, combined with the route marked on the map, Lu Yao tried to choose a route close to the crater, so that the chance of discovering the volcanic valley would be greater.
It took more than three hours for Lu Yao to search for the two suspected places of Death Canyon that Deqiao told him, but he didn't find any lava tunnels.
A thick layer of gray mist wafted above those valleys, and a pungent smell of sulfur came from the valleys, and there were indeed some sparse shrubs and algae growing in the valleys, but there was no sign of the spirit fruit trees.
Lu Yao had seen the Spirit Fruit Tree when he was in the cultivation realm in his previous life, and if he really had it, he would not have missed it.
Seeing that it was almost three o'clock and dawn in a few hours, Lu Yao decided to rush to the last Death Canyon first, if not, he planned to go back first.
Fortunately, the last canyon is located in the middle of nowhere, but it is more than 2,500 meters away from the summit, and the eruption crater here has become much more active than below.
Lu Yao relied on his own Fanghu Immortal Island, which he could take refuge in at any time, so he didn't worry much about when the crater would suddenly erupt.
While he was running rapidly, Lu Yao's figure suddenly froze, and his divine sense suddenly sensed that there was a person lying on the ground in front of him on the left, who seemed to be in a coma, and it was a beautiful blonde girl.
"It's strange, how can a woman pass out here?"
Lu Yao stopped, used the disguise technique to change his appearance, and entered Fanghu Immortal Island to change into a spare set of clothes, which revealed his figure.
Lu Yao came to the unconscious woman, stretched out his hand to help her up, and found that her face was pale, without a trace of blood, and there were still traces of being bitten by something on her body.
His gaze suddenly froze, and he muttered, "Could it be that he encountered a vampire bat?"
Thinking back to Jerome's words, when he entered the Valley of Fire, he had to pass through a magma tunnel full of bats, and his heart was happy, could it be that he had already reached the vicinity of that valley?
"It's your luck to meet me, and it's cheap for you. Lu Yao muttered in a low voice again, took out a poison pill, and prepared to give it to the blonde woman.
The reason why the woman fell unconscious was not only because of excessive blood loss, but also because of the toxins on the teeth of vampire bats that paralyzed nerves.
Therefore, Lu Yao had to detoxify her first, and then he could better treat her. As for the adverse consequences of the poison pill, Lu Yao couldn't think about it so much.
Although the poison pill is only a mortal pill, it is still an elixir after all, and it has the magical effect of melting in the mouth.
Otherwise, the blonde beauty is unconscious now, and Lu Yao really doesn't know how to feed her, although she is very beautiful, Lu Yao doesn't want to take advantage of her.
As soon as the poison pill was taken, it had an effect, and the eyes of the unconscious blonde beauty began to roll, and her mouth began to murmur unconsciously.
"Help, help!"
Lu Yao ignored her words, and took out a bottle of water containing spiritual energy from Fanghu Immortal Island, and fed her to make up for the blood loss in her body.
