Jiang Yixin and Li Feng voluntarily joined Luo Bi and Feng Ling's team. As Luo Bi's step-brother, Hua Ran naturally had to join them as well. The five of them stood on the sandy ground, squinting to look around. Opening their eyes wide was no good; the sun was too blinding.

"Can you sense where there are spirit plants?" Jiang Yixin asked.

"I don't know, let's just look around," Luo Bi replied. She had never sensed spirit plants in an open field before, so she could only search blindly.

Since she couldn't sense anything, the group had to search aimlessly through the sand and rocks. They would examine any plant they found, no matter what kind it was.

The small plants were trampled and hard to find, except for a few that survived in the crevices of rocks. After searching, they managed to find a few intact spirit plants.

Luo Bi looked at them and saw that most were Flame Grass. The plants weren't very large; if they grew too big, they would be trampled. The stems and leaves of the Flame Grass were red, and the roots were also red. Holding it in her hand, it looked like a small flame, very vivid.

With the scorching sun overhead, Luo Bi felt her heart burning just looking at the Flame Grass, so she quickly put it away in her storage bracelet.

"Wow, I found a melon!" Jiang Yixin exclaimed from a few meters away.

"Really! Let me see." Li Feng, who was always with Jiang Yixin, was just a few steps away. He walked over and looked: "Hey, it really is. Let's see if any of the melons are still intact."

The melon vines grew from the crevices of the rocks. The plant wasn't very large, with two green melons hanging from it. One was trampled, but the other, which was smaller and sheltered by the rock, was still intact. Jiang Yixin reached out to pick it and smiled, showing his white teeth: "This one is good."

He ran over to Luo Bi with the melon, which was about the size of a fist, and said proudly: "This is a wild nutrient melon, which only grows in hot, sandy areas. The flesh is very sweet. I'm giving it to you."

Luo Bi was poking at a rock crevice with a small branch. She turned to look at the green melon in Jiang Yixin's hand, and her eyes widened. She took it and examined it carefully, then sniffed it. The rough green skin had no scent.

"Where did you find it?" If she wasn't mistaken, this should be a Hami melon. Even though it was a mutated variety, Luo Bi was very excited.

"Over there." Jiang Yixin pointed to where he found the melon: "There are no more melons on it, and the vines are trampled. What are you going to do there?"

Luo Bi didn't answer him and walked over to squat down and look.

The melon vine was about eighty centimeters long, sprawling on the sandy ground, with one tendril climbing up a nearby rock. The tendrils were thin, the stems had ridges, the leaf stalks had coarse hairs, and the leaves had serrated edges.

The more she looked, the more it resembled a Hami melon vine. Luo Bi couldn't contain her excitement and called for help: "I want this sand and soil. Help me collect it."

"This kind of rocky sand is poor soil. Just because one melon grew here doesn't mean anything else will grow if you plant it again," Li Feng kindly reminded Luo Bi.

"I know, just help me collect it," Luo Bi insisted.

Li Feng took out a few bags, and the others helped shovel the soil. Luo Bi directed them, and they collected enough to fill three bags.

Wen Xiao wandered over at some point and teased, "Wow, you're really scraping the earth three feet deep!"

"We want to, what's it to you?" Jiang Yixin retorted, then glared at him: "What are you doing over here? Go back to your own side."
