However, this thod has been incorporated into a seemingly superstitious procedure.
Or perhaps, this is also a thod to test the people accompanying them.
If soone doesn't even want to follow in this minor matter and intends to cause trouble, the Wei Clan can stop the losses in ti.
At that ti, by slightly deviating from the found safe path and encountering so thrilling but harmless incidents, they could use it as an excuse to return and avoid offending people openly.
After all, in this world, claiming there are ominous signs and that moving forward may lead to a fall isn't necessarily just a trick to fool the naive.
These families with long lineages, regardless of their current power, must have so skills if they manage to live peacefully without offending others.
Now that they had calmly crossed the Hengduan Mountains, Yu Ziqing roughly understood Wei Jing's attitude.
Wei Jing was indeed very satisfied with Yu Ziqing, being very tactful, and after setting off, he really listened to the guide's words without a single question. Wherever the guide said to go, he followed.
In places with established paths, it's best not to irresponsibly express immature opinions.
Past the Hengduan Mountains, without seeing the big picture clearly, they were first struck by blinding light, and a bitter cold rushed over them.
Monts later, after adjusting to the light here, they saw clearly that most places were covered with ice and snow, with only a very few sheer cliffs exposed.
In a world completely covered with ice and snow, it was silent to the point of deathly stillness, with not even a bird in sight.
Just crossing a mountain range made the temperature drop significantly.
"It's colder than before..." Wei Jing murmured softly, then turned to look at the pair, one yellow and one blue.
"Rember, caution is most important. No matter what happens, you must prioritize survival and fall back."
They continued forward; no one dared to fly, because there might be invisible Extre Cold Streams descending from the sky, entirely unpredictable.
In the following half month, although the pace was slow, Wei Jing, with his rich experience, always found safe paths.
Half a month later, Yu Ziqing suddenly felt a jolt in his heart, looking up towards the distance, seeing no changes.
He rembered the Extre Cold Stream Wei Jing ntioned and looked up at the sky, seeing cloudless clear skies and the sun shining high.
The next mont, Wei Jing suddenly shouted low.
"Quickly, get into the valley bottom, enter the cave where we rested just now."
Their actions were swift, covering several miles in breaths and darting into a cave with a narrow entrance.
The next mont, through the cave entrance, Yu Ziqing saw a distant snow-covered peak swiftly turning into an ice mountain.
With a cracking sound, an avalanche occurred, but the snow, collapsing like giant waves, fell only a few feet before freezing solid in place.
The previously pure white snow peak began to radiate a faint blue glow.
The next mont, cold Qi surged through the cave entrance, causing a layer of frost to instantly form, and then it thickened, eventually becoming a light blue thick ice.
Yu Ziqing, standing slightly closer to the entrance, noticed his own Qi-Blood circulation seed to slow slightly due to the sudden cold Qi.
"This is the Extre Cold Stream, invisible and hard to sense.
To detect it in advance, one must always observe or cultivate special Dharma thods.
Or be like you, a Body Cultivator with a naturally strong physical perception.
But even so, like today, only being able to detect it a few breaths early is normal."
Wei Jing's internal power fluctuation was minimal, resisting the severe cold solely by the flow of his strength.
"Also, when an Extre Cold Stream appears, don't use fire; it's very dangerous.
Let's wait; this bout might take one or two days to end.
Legend says, the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land is the highest place in the world, closest to the Void.
The Extre Cold Stream falls from the Void."
Yu Ziqing said nothing; he knew the normal Void wouldn't have such things.
It's not like he hadn't been to the Void...
"But encountering the Extre Cold Stream does indicate one thing, that we've already stepped into the outskirts of the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land.
Be careful; I feel the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land is even more unpredictable than last ti I was here.
Not only is the environnt dangerous, but also those monsters long dormant in the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land may awaken."
"Hmm? Are there living beings there?"
"Not normal living beings, by rights, those monsters shouldn't awaken in this season.
But now nothing is normal, so it's not certain."
"What kind of monsters are they approximately?"
"Bodies made of ice and snow, nearly impossible to kill, even if you destroy their bodies, they can quickly revive in this environnt.
Body cultivation has a Divine Skill called Blood Rebirth, you're aware of it, right?
It feels quite similar to that Divine Skill, anyway, try not to provoke them.
Those monsters hold grudges intensely."
Three days later, Wei Jing took out a candle and slowly burned the solid ice sealing the cave entrance, taking an entire day to lt it, and they walked out again.
Outside, it was already faintly shimring a light blue, and Yu Ziqing touched the solid ice, finding it comparable to the lowest grade of Profound Ice, difficult to lt by ordinary flas, harder than Mysterious Iron.
Continuing forward, before long, after crossing several mountain ridges, the land ahead transford into an endless plain.
"From here on, it's considered stepping into the range of the Extrely Cold Forbidden Land.
Where Brother Qing wants to go, you must cross here, and you can't fly over it."
While speaking, Wei Jing pointed to the sky.
In the distance, countless ice pillars pierced the ground, growing thicker and rising higher, the sharp ice ridges forming as if soone was casting a Secret Technique.
