Volume 2 Chapter 67 The Carriage Journey (9)
On the second night, on the roof of the speeding carriage, a pillar similar to the night appeared, leading straight to the cold wind layer of the canyon above, and a layer of light ice made this slender pillar loom in the night.
After repeated confirmation, Shi Leiyin was finally convinced that due to the characteristics of the cold wind in the canyon, the roof of the carriage at night was not within the warning range of the coachmen, and at the same time, due to the existence of the cold wind in the canyon, most of the moonlight was also blocked, and he only needed to change the color slightly to achieve the effect of blending into the night.
So, instinctively thirsty for the absorption of the ice element, and at the same time eager to further obtain the ability of the ice element, Shi Leiyin ventured to put one of his tentacles into the cold wind layer of the canyon at night.
Because he has been exposed to the cold wind of the canyon, Shi Leiyin has done some special treatment on his tentacles, first of all, in order to prevent the tentacles from being directly frozen and cracked due to the invasion of the ice element that is too strong, Shi Leiyin has strengthened the ice element resistance of that part of the tentacles to the limit that he can control. At the same time, a double-layer structure was designed, like a thermos cup, a part of the air was wrapped in the middle of the two limbs, and this part of the air was also warmed by the body of Shi Leiyin located in the carriage relying on the heat of the fire elemental stone.
The tentacles themselves, depending on the night outside, are made to a slightly gray translucent form. The slime's body originally tended to be transparent, but after Shi Leiyin compressed the body nearly a thousand times, it has become closer to the color of sapphire, which is the result of a high degree of compression of internal energy and tissue, and it is very difficult to easily change back to the original transparent form, so the strength of the tentacles has been reduced a lot, but fortunately, in order to make the color light gray, Shi Leiyin mixed some things with the same composition as the wood of the carriage shell in the tentacles, which allowed the tentacles to enter the canyon cold wind layer straight without being easily blown down or blown offใ
In fact, the kind of wood in the carriage shell Shi Leiyin felt very strange when he obtained the sample, just a small sample, Shi Leiyin's fusion organ obtained complete information, as if every cell of this wood had all the information of the whole tree. Although it is a bit strange, because in the previous world, there was also a saying that the leaves of trees were equal to the appearance of the tree, and some plants could be directly cut off branches and other parts for cutting, so Shi Leiyin did not have much curiosity about this phenomenon. In addition, the hardness of this tree also made Shi Leiyin have a lot of sighs, and Shi Leiyin thought at first, this feeling is as hard as steel, there is no metal composition at all in the composition or even at the cell level, just relying on the molecular arrangement of the cell wall makes the wood itself hard to a certain extent, at the same time, Shi Leiyin found some residual magic reactions in the cell structure of these woods, very similar to the magic elements of the earth system but more active, Shi Leiyin thinks that this should be a plant-based magic element, but it has never appeared on any tree that Shi Leiyin has touchedBesides, the little bit of magic reaction left on the wood that had completely lost the vitality of the plant was really not enough for Shi Leiyin to get more clues.
The cold wind in the canyon at night was not as strong as Shi Leiyin imagined, and most of the cold winds that blew through the tentacles were not as strong as those that passed through the carriage during the day, but the frequency was very high, and the interval between each cold wind was definitely no more than two seconds. With this almost uninterrupted blowing frequency alone, Shi Leiyin could understand why the cold wind dove that could ride the cold wind of the canyon to dominate the entire cold wind canyon could not move at night. It's just that the frequency of cold winds in the most marginal areas is so high, let alone in places that are even higher, and besides, the intensity of the cold winds there is definitely far greater than where Shi Leiyin touches.
Through the tentacle medium, the ice element crystals in the cold wind of the canyon were continuously absorbed into Shi Leiyin's body in the carriage, and then they were completely decomposed and absorbed. It's just that what makes Shi Leiyin feel strange is that although with the increase in the amount of absorption, the power of the ice element that can be manipulated and used in his body has increased greatly, and there is even a tendency to catch up with the two elements of wind and thunder, but he still can't obtain the complete composition of the ice element, and there is no way to directly use his own magic power to imitate and create the ice element, and when he absorbed the wind spirit stone and the heart of thunder and lightning, only less than one percent of the amount he has absorbed now, his body has perfectly imitated and manufactured these two elements.
There must be something wrong with something, or something that has been overlooked. There is still some time before dawn, Shi Leiyin did not stop absorbing the ice element, although he encountered the limitation of the composition of the ice element and could not obtain the last part of the composition principle, but because of the relationship between absorbing and fusing the ice element in large quantities, the body's resistance to the ice element is getting higher and higher, according to Shi Leiyin's own estimate, if this resistance improvement can continue, he can reach the level of freezing immunity before dawn.
But obviously, the reality will not be as good as expected, Shi Leiyin's freezing resistance has also stagnated after rising to a certain level, although the canyon cold wind has been unable to cause any damage to his body, but it can still freeze his body slightly, Shi Leiyin knows that this has a certain relationship with the fact that he has not fully obtained the composition of the ice element.
Shi Leiyin absorbed a large amount of ice elements there to improve his freezing immunity, and the others who were also in the carriage were more unlucky. The open roof window is not a big problem, after all, the cold wind in the canyon can't blow in. However, in the process of absorbing the ice element, Shi Leiyin inevitably leaked a large amount of cold air, and he absorbed the heat of the fire elemental stone to prevent his tentacles from being frozen, and the corner of the carriage occupied by Shi Leiyin was covered with a thin layer of frost. How big is this carriage, Shi Leiyin did this, except for Shui Jing, who still enjoyed it, the remaining three could only huddle together, shrink in the farthest corner from Shi Leiyin, and wrap all the bedding and blankets around their bodies, so that they felt that they were resisting this cold.
This situation began to improve when Shi Leiyin's ice elemental resistance stopped growing, and at this time, Shi Leiyin continued to absorb the ice element, not to decompose and gain ability, but to simply store energy in his body. In the past, when he absorbed the Wind Spirit Stone, he directly converted the wind element in the Wind Spirit Stone into pure energy that could be used by his body, but this time, because he couldn't use his own energy to simulate the ice element, Shi Leiyin simply compressed the ice element crystals in his body to compress and store all the absorbed ice element energy. Originally, the ice element in the cold wind of the canyon existed in the form of small crystals, so it was compressed and combined by Shi Leiyin without any resistance.
Shi Leiyin began to absorb pure energy, and the cold qi generated by the decomposition and fusion dropped sharply. On the other hand, Shui Jing, who had been sitting next to Shi Leiyin and relied on his own absorption of cold to prevent the cold from freezing the remaining three people, also seemed to have broken through a certain critical point at the same time, and the speed of absorbing cold qi greatly increased. Shui Jing's crystal clear body has a trace of condensation, and it is no longer so soft.
