Chapter 292: The Second Heart

Huang Yi and Overlord's mounts were very fast, and in no time they arrived near their destination.

"Look, why is there a forest over there?" Just then, Overlord suddenly pointed ahead, a trace of surprise on his wrinkled face.

In the midst of the scorching desert, a forest appeared out of place, lush and verdant, like a paradise in the hot, arid desert, tempting any traveler passing by to explore it and search for water sources.

"That means we've found the right place," Huang Yi said while gazing at the forest from afar. "This is a Mirage Illusion, conjured by the Sand Thief King to lure people into that area, where they get lost and are led to where the heart is hidden. In the end, they're trapped and die, leaving their Essence of Life to be absorbed by the heart. Countless years have passed; who knows how much Life Essence it has absorbed from passersby."
