The Strongest Devouring Upgrade

Chapter 448: Deep into the snow

In the following period of time, the temperature that Lu Pingan and others felt was getting lower and lower, and the snow and frost they saw became more and more.

This means that they have gradually entered the inner area from the edge of the snowfield.

No one knows how big the snowfield is, only that it is extremely vast, as if it is endless.

Some people even think that it can be regarded as the "third continent" outside the east and west continents.

The scenery of the snowfield, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow.

As far as the eyes can be, there is a vast expanse of whiteness, and the scene is quite magnificent.

Zhuang Qingxi was familiar with this, but when Lu Pingan and others first saw it, they still felt quite shocked, as if they were in a pure and white dream world, it seemed that their hearts had become much broader.

But within a few days, they got used to it, and even felt a little bored with this monotonous landscape in addition to white or white.

And in this freezing environment, the existence of the flame blood horse really provided Lu Ping's and his party with enough temperature without consuming spiritual energy.

However, the problems they have to face are not just the dullness that needs to be endured during the itinerary, and the rather cold weather, but also many unpredictable complications.

For example, ice and snow storms are more terrifying and powerful than normal storms, and they can also cause chain reactions such as avalanches and ice cracks. In addition, there are sudden snow tides, snow whirlpools... etc.

These natural disasters, which are rare in the Eastern Continent, are more common here.

The snowy field, which looks white and beautiful on the outside, is like an irritable monster. From time to time, it will make some earth-shattering things to torture all the creatures here.

Lu Ping'an and the others encountered this type of situation five times within two months of entering the snowy field. Two of them came together, which was extremely dangerous.

As for the mysterious and weird snowfield monsters, they did not spare Lu Ping'an. Sometimes, the monsters were even more difficult to guard against and dangerous than those natural disasters.

But even in such a harsh environment, Lu Ping'an and the others survived without danger.

Injuries are inevitable, but they are not so serious that they affect spiritual practice.

And as long as they are not dead, with their realm of strength, coupled with the resources such as the pill that they carry, they can recover in a short time.

Of course, apart from their abilities, the biggest reason they were able to successfully survive several catastrophes was the presence of Zhuang Qingxi.

When planning the action, Zhuang Qingxi was already trying his best to choose routes that felt safer.

But no one can accurately predict the changes in the snowfield, dangers and disasters always come suddenly.

But even so, whenever a crisis occurs, Zhuang Qingxi will use his rich experience to tell everyone how to deal with it, or to lead everyone out of danger. It can be said that he fully assumes his responsibility as a team leader and also shows Out of her extraordinary ability in this area.

Without Zhuang Qingxi, although Lu Pingan and the others might not have been wiped out, they would have suffered heavy damage.

Judging from the results of these things, Zhuang Qingxi insisted on being the captain, really not for her own control of power, but only for her to give orders and arrange the team's actions so that everyone can continue to move forward.

After experiencing many hardships, Lu Ping'an and the others have already respected Zhuang Qingxi. Considering that she is a young monk who is actually more than 20 years old, they admire him even more.

Even Qin Sanchuan, who had always had an opinion on Zhuang Qingxi, gradually became calm during this process and was more willing to follow Zhuang Qingxi's orders.

After two months, everyone's realm of strength has improved.

Among them, Chunyu Feiqiong's progress is quite obvious, from the original triple breakthrough of reincarnation to the sixth reincarnation.

Lu Ping'an was striving for progress while steadily. During this period, he only consumed thirty-five high-grade beast cores of the ground level, making his cultivation level reach the fifth level of Yuanyang level, and he did not rush to upgrade.

The only regret is that Lu Pingan hasn't come across the right bloodline so far, so he hasn't found anything in this regard.

However, in terms of swordsmanship and other skills, he has improved a lot. From the perspective of experience, he has benefited a lot.

But the person who made the most progress was Qin Sanchuan. This kind of arduous practice environment was in line with the characteristics of their Vajrayana technique, which enabled him to raise his realm to the middle stage of the ninth stage of Xuan Yin within two months.

Qin Sanchuan said before that he must reach Yuanyang Realm within two months.

Although the time has come, he hasn't turned this sentence into reality, but being able to do this is already quite rare.

However, for the entire Snowfield Operation, their team did not get more gains apart from continuing to advance. This fact ultimately made Lu Ping'an and others feel a little frustrated.

...

"At this rate, how long will it take us to reach Sucheng?"

When everyone was resting in a safer place, Lu Pingan asked Zhuang Qingxi.

Sucheng, an independent city-state in the snowy field, is said to have once belonged to the legendary Baize Kingdom.

The environment there, relatively speaking, is not so bad, and it can be regarded as one of the few places suitable for long-term human living.

Therefore, Sucheng has become a post-station-like existence in the snowy field.

Many monks who want to go deep into the snowy field will first go to the city of Sui, where they can buy supplies or rest for a period of time to restore their vitality.

You can even see people from the Western Continent there.

Of course, these things were all told by Zhuang Qingxi to Lu Pingan and others when he was explaining the action plan in Bianxing City.

In their plan, Sucheng was also a necessary place. Only when they got there, could they determine which direction they would go in later.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Lu Pingan to ask such a question at this time.

Afterwards, only Zhuang Qingxi replied: "If there is no accident, it will take about half a month."

Chen Buzhan sighed and said, "It may take only five or six days to complete the journey in the Eastern Continent, but it takes half a month here, and it's so difficult to walk. This ruined place is really torturous. "

Gongsun Ying said, "It's not bad to survive. What does it mean to spend more time and energy?"

Chen Buzhan said, "It is correct to say that, but I am afraid that I will work hard until the end and find nothing. That is the most uncomfortable."

Gongsun Ying said: "At present, we have only encountered a small beast wave in the marginal area. The monster beasts we encountered later are all normal attacks. From this point of view, we really haven't found it yet. Useful clues."

Zhuang Qingxi said: "After passing the city of Sui, we have truly entered the depths of the snowy field. Therefore, in these two months, we are just on the road. There is no gain, it is completely expected. Only keep patience and continue. Only if we persist, we will be able to find out the truth."

Lu Pingan nodded and said, "I also think that patience is a very important factor in this operation. As long as we believe that there is still hope, we will always succeed."

At this moment, Chunyu Feiqiong suddenly thought of something and asked: "Elder Zhuang, do you know anything about the Jixia Academy team that entered the snowfield last time?"

Lu Ping'an was startled when he heard the words, he knew that what Chunyu Feiqiong was asking was the team that Jiang Yuebai was in.

Zhuang Qingxi said: "You know something about them."

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "Then do you know where or where they disappeared?"

Zhuang Qingxi said: "I have only heard that it is in a certain direction, but the exact location is unknown."

Chunyu Feiqiong said, "Is it in the depths of the snowy field?"

Zhuang Qingxi said, "Well, it's also a place after Sucheng, but we're not sure if we will go there this time."

Chunyu Feiqiong was stunned and said, "Not sure? This is troublesome."

"What? Do you want to find those who are missing?"

Zhuang Qingxi knew that Chunyu Feiqiong was a student of Jixia College, and seeing her so concerned about this matter, it was naturally not difficult to guess her thoughts.

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "Yes, to be precise, both Lu Pingan and I want to find those people."

Zhuang Qingxi glanced at Lu Ping'an and said, "Presumably, that's a very important person to you, right?"

Lu Pingan said: "Well, it's a friend that must be found."

Zhuang Qingxi said: "But like this, you still have to be psychologically prepared, the chance of success is very small."

Lu Pingan understood what she meant, and said, "You are still insisting, what reason do I have to give up this belief?"

In contrast, Zhuang Qingxi’s parents have been missing for longer, and logically speaking, the hope of finding or surviving is even slimmer.

However, after Lu Ping'an learned that she was still searching, he became more determined about Jiang Yuebai's affairs.

It can even be said that the incident of Zhuang Qingxi gave Lu Ping'an a lot of confidence and encouragement.

Zhuang Qingxi said: "Okay, but then again, in fact, where they disappeared is not very important. The people in that team have either been sacrificed or are still alive, and if it is the latter, it may be possible. It's in another mysterious place."

Chunyu Feiqiong said: "Before I left Jixia Academy, I also made a special confirmation. Judging from the special magical instruments used to judge their survival, some of them are still alive."

Zhuang Qingxi said, "That's probably there."

Lu Pingan frowned slightly and asked, "Elder Zhuang, is it the legendary Baize Kingdom?"

Zhuang Qingxi said: "That's right. Although my parents didn't leave any magical tools to judge the signs of life when they entered the snowfield, I think they were in the Baize Kingdom!"
