226: Chapter 65 Gold Armor Forbidden Insect (Part 1)_1 226: Chapter 65 Gold Armor Forbidden Insect (Part 1)_1 At this moment, Zi was thinking about other matters.
The first thing that came to his mind was that he had been deceived by Red Spirit.
The reason Red Spirit came back was not because she fell for his feigned retreat but because she had stolen Krypton Gold from the most powerful force in the Northernmost Wilderness and, in order to survive, had no choice but to rely on him and his panions.
Another issue he considered was even more significant.
Such a massive amount of Krypton Gold was definitely priceless.
Who in the world would present it to the Thunder God Tribe?
Ye Yinzhu accepted the Krypton Gold, taking it under the pleading of Red Essence Red Spirit.
And so, their group for the trip increased from ten to eleven people.
Although defeating the Wolf riders wasn’t difficult, Zi and Ye Yinzhu decided to change their route immediately after consulting each other.
The news of the Wolf riders might reach the Thunder God Tribe and possibly bring the tribe’s army to them.
Even though they were already a considerable distance from Thor Hammer Fort, being cautious was always good.
The Northernmost Wilderness was very cold, with no sense of spring.
The further north they traveled, the more pronounced this feeling became.
Supplies weren’t a problem for them.
The various wild animals in the Northernmost Wilderness were plentiful; due to the cold environment, most of them had fatty and tender meat, while the unthawed snow provided ample fresh water.
On their journey, they carefully avoided the various Beastman clans in the Northernmost Wilderness, deliberately choosing remote mountains and wild ridges to travel through.
During such times, Ma Liang’s value pletely showed.
No matter the terrain, he could summon the most suitable mounts with his summoning technique, maintaining the group’s speed unaffected.
Night fell, marking the fifth day since they entered the Northernmost Wilderness.
After crossing a not-too-high mountain peak, they temporarily set up camp at its foot.
The place they stayed at was very simple.
With mountains nearby, the prepared tents were unnecessary.
Perkins and Dis each punched once, creating a large hole in the mountain wall that was enough to shield everyone from the cold wind.
The two brothers respected Zi pletely, as if it was ingrained in their blood.
Without Zi’s instruction, they immediately went out to hunt for wild animals after setting up the living area.
It had been this way for the last five days.
They almost solely handled procuring all the food.
After another day of traveling, everyone was somewhat tired, especially the mages.
Upon entering the temporarily opened stone cave, they immediately began their meditation.
Ye Yinzhu and Zi sat together, with An Qi still leaning against Zi’s side.
After these days of travel, the two bundles of spiritual power in her spiritual imprint were still very calm, showing no signs of conflict.
An Qi was clinging to Zi every day, even unwilling to be far from him during the night when they slept.
Although Zi occasionally showed signs of impatience, Ye Yinzhu could clearly feel that his gaze had bee softer and softer when looking at An Qi.
“Zi, how much longer before we can enter deep into the Northernmost Wilderness?” Ye Yinzhu asked.
Zi pondered and then replied, “Based on the distance, we will need at least fifteen more days to pletely pass through the range of the various Beastman clans’ territories and enter the area of the Frosty Forest.
The Frosty Forest is the northernmost place of the entire continent, where snow accumulates year-round, and the temperature is always extremely low, no matter the season.
Centered around the Frosty Forest and covering about one-third of the Northernmost Wilderness is our target for this search.
I’ve heard Perkins say that people from the Thunder God Tribe have seen footprints of Mountain giants near Frosty Forest before, but when the entire tribe went to search, they found nothing and were instead attacked and routed by the Magical Beasts of the forest.
Magical Beasts capable of surviving in such freezing cold are at least Seventh rank and above.”
Ye Yinzhu nodded and said, “I’ve heard about that place.
It’s said that the Frosty Forest is one of the most dangerous forbidden areas on the entire continent, with powerful Magical Beasts lurking everywhere, always waiting to devour life.”
“Ming Xue’s home is in the Frosty Forest.
Grandfather brought her back from there and gave her to me,” Yue Ming’s voice suddenly interrupted, as she opened her eyes from meditation.
The five days of travel had been somewhat harsh for such a young girl like her, even with summoning mounts, the trek’s fatigue made her look haggard.
Among the mages, she was the one who found the journey most taxing.
Both she and Haiyang were the only girls among the mages.
However, every day during the journey, Haiyang, not only dressed in thick fur but also cozily nestled in Ye Yinzhu’s arms, had it much easier than Yue Ming.
Yue Ming had always been very proud and stubborn, so even through the hardship, she never uttered a plaint.
“Yue Ming, how are you?
Are you okay?” Ye Yinzhu turned around and asked.
Shaking her head, Yue Ming walked over and sat beside the two, “Grandfather said that the Frosty Forest is very dangerous, with the strongest ice-attribute and wind-attribute Magical Beasts on the entire continent living there.
Even the rank Nine Beast Snow Spirit You Ming isn’t the strongest existence there.
When grandfather went to the Frosty Forest, he was looking for some special Magical Materials and incidentally captured Ming Xue.
Even with my Grandfather’s Fifth Rank Zi rank strength, he narrowly escaped death several times.
I wonder if our bined strength is enough to contend with those rank Nine Beasts.”
Smiling, Ye Yinzhu said, “Don’t worry.
As soon as we enter the range of the Frosty Forest, the first thing we’ll do is to help you look for Ming Xue’s parents.
I think Ming Xue must be very familiar with her home.
By then, we might actually have to let her lead the way.”
With a trace of reluctance in her eyes, Yue Ming nodded and said, “I hope so.
These are for you, they might be of some help.
They are Dark Ice Amulets made by Grandpa.” More than ten black jade amulets appeared in her hands.
The amulets were small and delicate, showing a grey color throughout.
Because Ye Yinzhu was a Foreign Silver Dragon, he was extremely sensitive to various Magic Elements and immediately noticed that within these amulets, there existed both Ice and Dark Magic Elements.
These elements were arranged in some special sequence, but he was unsure of their purpose.
Yue Ming placed the Dark Ice Amulets in Ye Yinzhu’s hand and explained, “Whoever wears them can produce a layer of ice-like aura around their body and then use the Dark Element to create a double barrier for our aura.
This way, we won’t be easily detected by Magical Beasts.
Beasts attuned to Ice and Wind Elements are very sensitive to the aura of living creatures, and if we enter rashly, it may attract a large number of Magical Beasts to attack.”
Zi took two Dark Ice Amulets from Ye Yinzhu’s hands, revealing an admiring look in his eyes, “Thank you.” While speaking, he kept one for himself and pressed the other into An Qi’s hands.
An Qi curiously placed the Dark Ice Amulet in her palm and seemed to discover something as a faint purple light emerged from her hand.
With a flash, the amulet suddenly shone brightly, with circles of dark blue halos revolving around her body.
The sequential light made her giggle.
Yue Ming said in astonishment, “Such a strong Magic fluctuation.
She, she is a Fifth Rank Zi rank Dark Ice Dual Attribute Grand Sorcerer?” She had seen her grandfather achieve the same effect, but the Magic Elements seemed to be even less than those of this young girl before her.
Ye Yinzhu said with a wry smile, “No, she’s not just a Dark Ice Dual Attribute, she’s Nature and Darkness Dual Attribute.
She can control all Nature Sequence Magic Elements plus the Dark Element.
Don’t inquire about her identity, it’s not good for you.”
Yue Ming fell silent, feeling her own power so inconsequential at this moment.
At this time, Dis and Perkins had returned from outside, one carrying two huge wild boars and the other holding many dry woods, to be used as firewood.
Putting the items down, Dis immediately went over to Sura who was meditating nearby, and said ingratiatingly, “Brother Sura, I’ve brought the things back.
Wake up, wake up.”
The green Douqi light receded, and Sura opened his eyes, seeing Dis’s shiny bald head twinkling before his own, he couldn’t help but show a smile, “e on, help me with this.”
Among the party of eleven, only Sura could cook.
Although it was roasted meat every day, Sura’s culinary skills were acknowledged by everyone.
The meat he roasted over these few days was such that no one felt tired of it; instead, they would look forward to it during their travels.
This was most true for the two Golden Behemoths.
As one of the strongest beings of the Beastman Clan, they used to eat roasted meat as well, but what could the Beastman Clan’s seasoning and culinary skills pare to those of Humans?
Ever since they first tasted the roasted meat prepared by Sura, the respect the two Golden Behemoths had for him instantly rose to the same level as that for Ye Yinzhu and Zi.
It could be said that Sura’s presence was their greatest motivation to hunt for game every day.
Under Sura’s direction, Dis and Perkins began to clean the two wild boars.
Watching them busily at work, Ye Yinzhu took out his Haiyue Qinhui Zither from his Space Ring and began to play.
Sura’s barbecue and Ye Yinzhu’s Zither music were the things everyone looked forward to the most after the monotonous journey each day.
Clad in white, with the Ancient Zither in his hands, Ye Yinzhu’s demeanor always returned to its most elegant state the moment his hands touched the zither strings.
No matter where he was or under what circumstances, as long as he played the Zither, such a scene would emerge.
It was as though the Zither and he were indivisible, and only in his hands could the Ancient Zither fully blossom with its deserved radiance.
Both hands moved simultaneously, the left hand pressing down lightly, the right hand plucking gently, and a touching melody drifted forth.
The zither music was delicate and implicit, the finger technique subtly controlled the tempo—slow and heavy, then briskly rhythmic, carrying a looping and lingering charm that seeped into the depths of one’s heart.
A yellow light glowed quietly along with the movement of his hands, emitting from the almost transparent zither strings, it was the melody of “Green Water”.
