On the sea.
From time to time, some marine creatures leap out of the sea, causing a lot of splashes.
The sea breeze brings with it the salty and fresh scent of the ocean, and under the bright sunshine, it gives people a refreshing feeling of being on vacation abroad.
We sailed north along the coast from Silvestre until twenty days later.
Xia Liang and the Shui family's soul hunting team finally entered the vicinity of the northern border of the Tiandou Empire.
At this time, they were walking on a piece of frozen ground.
The further we walked, the louder the wind howled and the colder the air became.
Stopping in his tracks, Xia Liang pulled up the hood of his cotton-padded jacket to block out the biting cold wind, but the icy air still penetrated into his body through the gaps like a knife.
There was already a layer of frost on everyone's brows.
Even the ice-attribute soul masters of the Shui family had to wear thick cotton-padded clothes to resist the invasion of the extreme cold air.
Looking carefully at the surrounding terrain, Xia Liang's eyes fell on a road sign in front of him.
The road sign had been frozen into ice, with a line of large characters written on it: The Far North, a restricted area for humans, Danger!
Among them, the word "danger" is marked in red.
The destination has finally arrived.
The vast expanse of white before your eyes is the Far North.
"Are everything ready?" The head of the Shui family suddenly shouted to everyone.
After checking the belongings they had brought with them, everyone nodded.
The head of the Shui family looked at Xia Liang, and his serious face suddenly smiled, "My friend, can you skate?"
Xia Liang shook his head hesitantly, "I haven't learned it."
"Then you learn it now. Ice skating is not difficult, just pay attention to keeping your body balance." As he said that, the head of the Shui family winked at a Soul Emperor.
The Soul Emperor took out a pair of skates from his soul guide and handed them to Xia Liang.
Xia Liang put on his skates without knowing why. He often went swimming in Blue Star but had never been to the ice rink.
However, as the head of the Shui family said, with the physical fitness of a soul master, he only needs to pay attention to maintaining his body balance.
Xia Liang tried walking a few steps on the spot, and when he didn't feel his ankle was sprained, he began to slide in a circle around the crowd.
"How is it? Is everything okay?" asked the Soul Emperor.
Xia Liang nodded. He probably guessed it.
The terrain in the Far North is dangerous and treacherous. If you walk there, not only will you consume your energy due to the deep snow, but you may also step on some soft ice and fall into an ice cave.
In order to travel faster and more safely, the Soul Emperor will use his ice attribute soul skill to freeze the snow in front of him into ice. In this way, everyone only needs to slide on the ice and can reach the outer area of the Far North without any hindrance.
"Shui Yin, have a hot drink." A Soul Saint said to the female Soul Emperor of the Food Department.
Six soul rings lit up, and after reciting the soul spell, a ball of milky white liquid appeared on the right palm of the food-type female soul emperor. This was exactly the soul emperor's food-type martial soul, milk.
Seeing everyone holding a container to collect the milk made by the Food-Type Female Soul Emperor, Xia Liang was stunned. The martial spirits in Douluo Continent are really amazing. Fortunately, milk can be made with just hands. If it is that part,
"Here." A clear and light voice sounded, and then a magatama-shaped container appeared in front of Xia Liang.
The person who handed over the magatama-shaped vessel was a girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old, who was also wearing a cotton coat that covered her entire body, leaving only her face exposed.
This soul beast hunting operation was for her.
Xia Liang remembered that this girl was mentioned in the original novel. She was Shui Binger, the future big sister of Tianshui College, and her martial soul was Ice Phoenix.
The head of the Shui family is Shui Bing'er's father. No wonder he attaches so much importance to this soul hunting trip.
"Thank you." Xia Liang took the magatama-shaped container and asked, "Can this thing be used to store the milk created by soul skills?"
Shui Bing'er nodded slightly, "Each of Sister Yin's soul rings can add different soul skill effects to the Milk Martial Soul. Now she is making hot drinks for everyone. After drinking it, you can resist the cold air from entering your body within six hours. When the cold-resistant effect disappears, just drink another sip. The hot milk drink made can last for a day. If you are embarrassed, I can help you pack it."
"No need. I'll do it myself." As he said that, Xia Liang slid in front of the Food-Department Female Soul Emperor and filled a pot of milk with a magatama-shaped container.
After drinking a sip of milk, the coldness that had invaded his body disappeared instantly. Xia Liang only felt a current of heat wrapping around his body, making him very warm.
"Bing'er, it's your turn." The voice of the head of the Shui family sounded again.
"Yes." With a reply, Shui Bing'er's second soul ring unfolded under her feet, and her second soul skill, Ice Ring Armor, was activated.
Circles of blue light spread out in all directions, and before Xia Liang had time to step back, he was hit by the blue light.
The next moment, he was suddenly wrapped in a layer of translucent blue armor.
The same thing happened to the rest of the people.
"The wind and snow in the Far North block my vision. While skating, I might bump into some soul beasts that I won't be able to avoid in time. My Ice Ring Armor is a defensive soul skill that can offset the damage caused by the collision and avoid meaningless injuries."
After listening to Shui Bing'er's explanation, Xia Liang tried to move his limbs and found that the flexibility of his body was not restricted by the presence of the translucent armor.
"Okay, let's go. My friend, when we reach the outer area of the Far North, I will have to trouble you to use your soul skills to help find soul beasts. Don't waste your soul power carelessly now." After instructing Xia Liang, the head of the family winked at the Soul Emperor beside him.
After receiving the instruction, the Soul Emperor revealed his third soul ring and pushed his right palm forward, and a blue-white light shot onto the snow on the ground.
Suddenly, the snow a hundred meters ahead turned into a straight ice track.
The Soul Emperor slid on the ice track while maintaining the freezing effect of his soul skill. Wherever he went, an ice track was formed immediately.
Xia Liang and others also slid on this ice track. With the soul power released by the patriarch as a warning, the surrounding soul beasts avoided them one by one.
After all, this is just the entrance to the Far North, and the soul power of a Soul Douluo is still extremely intimidating.
After sliding on the ice track for about ten minutes, Xia Liang finally felt at ease. Judging from the series of operations just now, it was obviously not the first time that the Shui family's soul hunting team entered the Far North.
Since they dared to take the risk again, it meant they were confident that they could leave safely.
It seems that there is no need to worry about too many variables on this trip, just do your best to do your job of finding soul beasts.
One day later.
The Far North, the outer area.
After a day's journey, Xia Liang and the Shui family finally arrived at a relatively safe area on the outskirts of the Far North.
A Soul Saint used his ice-attribute soul skills to condense the surrounding snow into an ice castle with a diameter of 20 meters.
After a night's rest, everyone came out of the ice castle.
"The Far North is extremely dangerous. The deeper you go, the closer you are to death. Shui Yin's hot milk drink can only protect against the cold air in the outer area of the Far North. For safety reasons, we will just go here. My friend, I'll leave it to you to find the soul beast."
The head of the Shui family looked at Xia Liang who was standing with Shui Bing'er and introduced, "The Ice Scorpion King is a very powerful ice-attributed soul beast. They gave up the scorpion's poison attribute and focused on the cultivation of ice attributes. With the help of the extreme cold air in the Far North, they are known as the strongest in the field of ice attributes."
"The soul beast atlas handed down by my ancestors records that the Ice Scorpion King mainly lives on the ice fields in the outer areas of the Far North, but uses ice and snow as cover. It is definitely not easy to find them. This is not only a huge consumption of time and energy, but also comes with various unknown risks."
After hearing this, Xia Liang was a little surprised. It was the first time he heard of soul beasts like the Ice Scorpion King.
It seems that the soul beast manuscript given by Yu Xiaogang did not record the soul beast knowledge related to the Far North.
However, judging from the description of the head of the Shui family, top-level ice-attributed soul beasts such as the Ice Scorpion King may be the Ice Jade Scorpion clan mentioned in Unrivaled Tang Sect.
