Chapter 74: Going deep into the Arctic ice field!
(Today’s fourth update has been posted, please support me readers!)
On the spacious loess road, Huo Yuhao, dressed in white clothes, was running with sweat on his face. Every time he landed, it was like a heavy object falling to the ground, hitting the ground heavily, splashing yellow dust all over the ground. .
What he was carrying on his back was the Xuanzhong Ruler given to him by Yao Lao. The length of the ruler almost exceeded his height. Such a strange combination made some people who occasionally passed by couldn't help but cast their eyes on him. To get curious glances.
After walking a few hundred meters again, Huo Yuhao finally couldn't hold on any longer. He kept breathing heavily like a windmill, and dragged his feet, which weighed as much as a thousand kilograms, toward the shade of the big tree on the roadside.
When he reached the bottom of the tree, Huo Yuhao fell directly on his back on the cool turf, letting the sweat on his forehead flow down like a stream.
"Young Master, are you okay?" Yu Tao said worriedly.
He had seen and felt the Mysterious Chong Ruler that Huo Yuhao was carrying before, so he also knew the effect of the Mysterious Chong Ruler in suppressing cultivation.
What made him unbelievable was that with Huo Yuhao's cultivation as a first-level soul master, he was able to fly with him for an hour while carrying this ghost on his back. He was simply a lunatic!
Huo Yuhao waved his hand feebly, indicating that nothing serious was wrong with him. When Yu Tao saw this, he didn't say much and found a stall on the roadside to buy tea.
"Teacher, this Xuanzhong ruler is too terrifying. The movement of my soul power on my back has become sluggish, and I can't fully activate the Tianluo Jue. And this ghost thing is too heavy, right? It's only a day's journey. , it’s been two days now, and it hasn’t arrived yet!”
After taking a few heavy breaths, Huo Yuhao's voice actually sounded hoarse due to excessive exertion.
"Hey, where is the earth-level fighting skill so easy to practice? You don't think it's as simple as just wandering around on the road, right? Since it's called holiday hard training, then prepare to enjoy the hardest treatment. In Shrek City That comfortable life has begun to leave you." Yao Lao said with a gloating smile.
Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and shook his head. Because he was carrying the Xuan Zhong Ruler, his cultivation was reduced to less than the level of a first-level soul master.
As for Tianluo Jue, which he has cultivated to the eighth level, he can only use the power of the third level, and the speed is far slower than before.
Moreover, its abnormal weight almost caused Huo Yuhao to break his waist while using all his soul power.
Although the Far North Icefield is eight thousand miles away from Shrek City, it is not difficult to reach it within five or six days at Huo Yuhao's original speed.
But at the current speed, it will take about ten days to reach the Far North Icefield. During these ten days, Huo Yuhao was probably able to feel what it meant to be truly exhausted.
"Yu Hao, you are the most desperate human being I have ever seen in cultivation. If I had been as cruel as you back then, I would have dealt with those ferocious beasts in the core area long ago." In the sea of spirits, Tian Meng Brother said with great admiration.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Huo Yuhao took the tea handed over by Yu Tao and drank it all. ,
After resting for a while, he pushed himself up from the ground, patted the thick body of the Xuan Zhong Ruler behind him with hatred and love, and took heavy steps again, walking towards the distance.
The far north ice field is the northernmost part of Douluo Continent. This place has snow that never melts all year round, and the environment is extremely cold. It is the habitat of countless ice-type soul beasts.
The core area of the Far North is as dangerous as the core area of the Star Dou Forest. The reason why the Star Forest is dangerous is because of the powerful spirit beasts in it, while the danger of the Far North is because the environment here is very dangerous. It's a desperate situation for humans.
The air here is extremely dry, and the biting cold wind sweeps away large snowflakes, cutting everything on the ground like sharp blades, leaving no grass growing on the ground.
Even a titled Douluo-level soul master would find it difficult to survive here for a long time. To withstand this extremely low temperature environment requires a huge amount of soul power to be consumed every moment. And once his soul power is exhausted, the result waiting for him is to sleep on this land forever, or become food for soul beasts, or become an eternal road sign here.
Moreover, ice attribute soul masters are extremely rare on the mainland, and few soul masters will come here to hunt soul beasts. Because there are no humans to hunt the soul beasts in the far north ice field, their numbers are increasing day by day, and their overall strength can even compete with that of the Star Dou Forest.
Huo Yuhao and Yu Tao traveled to the eighth day and finally entered the vicinity of the northern border of the Tianhun Empire. After arriving here, the map in his hand had become blank.
Stopping, Huo Yuhao panted slightly. White water mist exhaled from his mouth and nose, and immediately turned into ice shards and scattered in the air.
Colorful light flashed in his eyes, and the flame power released by the Flame God Eyes instantly spread throughout Huo Yuhao's body, causing him not to feel a trace of coldness.
Looking at the map carefully, based on their current location, there is a large area of emptiness to the north, and there is a line of small text annotations on the map.
"The far north is a restricted area for humans. Soul beasts are infested. Danger, danger, danger!"
The last three dangers are all marked in red letters, which shows how fearful the people who compiled the map were of the cruel environment of the Far North Icefield.
"Brother Tianmeng, don't sleep. We've arrived." Huo Yuhao called Tianmeng Iceworm in the sea of spirit.
"Guide the way? Which way?" Tianmeng Bingcan's confused voice sounded. "I don't know this place. As long as we follow the guidance of my spiritual power and find the target we are looking for, won't it be done? By the way, take off your clothes first, and I will keep you warm. Although you are now relying on The power of martial arts can withstand the cold here, but after all, it is not a long-term solution."
"There is no need for this." Yao Lao's voice suddenly rang out from Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea. Then, a wisp of white flame escaped from the simple black ring and turned into a membrane as thin as a cicada's wings to wrap around Huo Yuhao's skin.
Huo Yuhao tried to take back his martial soul, but he still didn't feel any coldness. On the contrary, it was Yu Tao who was standing beside him. There was already a layer of frost on his eyebrows.
"By the way, what should we do with this human being?" Brother Tianmeng asked. "We can't take him with us, otherwise something bad will happen."
Huo Yuhao chuckled and said to Brother Tianmeng: "It doesn't matter, the teacher and I have already made arrangements. Brother Tianmeng, you lead the way first, and I will naturally find a solution when the time comes."
"Well, let's go all the way north first and enter the core area of the Far North. Do you have enough food? We conservatively estimate that we will have to stay in this Far North for more than ten days. There is no shortage of water here, but But there is no food for you to eat." Brother Tianmeng said.
"Don't worry, I'm quite prepared." Huo Yuhao replied.
Starting again, Huo Yuhao and Yu Tao headed towards the north of the Arctic Icefield. Although the biting cold wind was no longer a threat to Huo Yuhao, the gradually appearing ice and snow still restricted his speed.
The further north you go, the colder the surrounding environment becomes. Gradually, even Yu Tao couldn't hold on any longer. After traveling for a period of time, he needed to stop and rest.
Another two days passed in the blink of an eye. Huo Yuhao has completely penetrated into the desolate and uninhabited extreme north. They also saw some spirit beasts on the way, but under the guidance of Tianmeng Iceworm, they never encountered any threats to him.
Suddenly, Tianmeng Iceworm's urgent voice sounded in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.
"Quick, get down on your knees, lie down on the ground and bury yourself in the snow. Don't move at all. Even if something touches your body, don't move."
Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with light at this moment, and he looked at Yu Tao beside him, with a smile on his lips.
"Brother, I'm sorry!"
