Chapter 22: To the Icewind Mountains

On the way forward, Sun Xiaofei kept recalling the scene just now in his mind. In the past year, he has cultivated in the secret realm, and with the help of the fire lotus, the power of the fire law has been thoroughly comprehended, and he can enter the long-awaited realm.

It's a pity that in the end, it fell short and failed to make a breakthrough and advance to the out-of-body period. It can be seen from the condensed clouds and terrifying power on the volcano of the Flame Mountain Range just now, but it has not formed a heavenly tribulation.

Sun Xiaofei knew that this was because he had advanced too fast during this time, the realm had not yet been consolidated, the cultivation and the realm were not coordinated with each other, and the realm could not keep up with his current actual cultivation.

The improvement of strength, in addition to the increase of cultivation and mana, must also have the corresponding realm cooperation, in order to be able to exert all of its own strength, and even exert it extraordinarily.

Mana is like a soldier, it belongs to the basic power of the body, the comprehension of various exercises and powers, just like a general, mastering the use and control of various powers. The realm of cultivation is also indispensable as an auxiliary force, and the level of the realm determines how much of one's own strength can explode. The higher the realm, the stronger the strength that can burst out.

To take a simple example, a person with a comparable cultivation realm can only exert 100% of his strength at most. A person whose realm is higher than cultivation can burst out with the power of several times his own strength, and completely burst out the potential in his body, this ability is the goal that Sun Xiaofei pursues in his hard work.

In front of Sun Xiaofei's terrifying speed, Blazing City arrived in a blink of an eye, and his current flying posture was completely filled with the fury of a fire-based power, like a volcanic eruption, with that indomitable fierce momentum. No amount of obstruction could stop him.

When Sun Xiaofei approached Blazing Flame City, he still restrained his violent aura so as not to attract the attention of those powerhouses in the city. Although now he is not afraid of them. However, try to avoid such troubles.

Sun Xiaofei easily found him through the agreement between him and Lucia. The two were naturally very happy to meet, and they found a place to sit down and chatted with each other about their experiences in recent years.

Lucia felt very envious of what happened to Sun Xiaofei, and was able to get such a good opportunity to come back after entering the secret realm to cultivate.

Sun Xiaofei was humble, and he could also see that Lucia was not without progress in staying in Blazing City. At least in his induction, Lucia's whole temperament became more calm and calm. It gives a sense of danger.

Sun Xiaofei asked casually why Lucia had changed so much.

In Blazing City, there is an ancient custom, that is, martial arts competitions. This custom is no different from the rest of the continent, until the other side is defeated.

It's just because of its proximity to the Flame Mountains that the way Blazing City competes is a little different from other places.

Blazing City has a special venue for martial arts competitions, and this venue is set up on the formation in the city. This formation has existed since the construction of Blazing City, and it can absorb the fire energy of the entire city, condense it, and release it when needed to attack or defend. Therefore, the temperature of the competition platform built on it was terrifyingly high.

In normal times, there are few people here, and the heat of the competition platform is unstoppable, and the terrifying blazing temperature can almost roast a person into a dry corpse.

The rules of the competition are very simple, as long as the contestant can hold on to the stage for an hour and not be knocked off the stage by other challengers, he will win the ring master of the day. If you accumulate 100 days and are not shot down by others, you will become the Lord of the Hundred Days Ring in Blazing City and obtain the title of King of the Hundred Days. The Hundred Days King was rewarded with a set of high-grade fire-based armor from Blazing City.

Lucia also went through several setbacks and several hard battles before he was lucky enough to win the title of the Hundred Days King and get a set of fire-based armor. In contrast, Sun Xiaofei seems to have gained a greater opportunity. Lucia is not a fire mage, and the fire armor he got is not very useful to him, and the way wind mages fight is mainly based on guerrilla fighting, and rarely fights head-on enemies. Obtaining this set of fire-based armor only increases his defense and reduces the amount of damage taken in battle.

Sun Xiaofei knew in his heart why Lucia did this, because Maria was a fire fighting qi cultivator, and with the relationship between the two, Lucia's intentions were self-evident. Sun Xiaofei doesn't break it, he keeps his deep blessings for the emotional belonging of good friends.

"Ryan, when are we leaving?" Lucia suddenly asked after the two had been talking for a long time.

Sun Xiaofei chuckled lightly and said, "Let's go prepare some things first, and then set off for the Ice Wind Mountain Range." ”

"Oh!" Lucia nodded.

Now that the next matter has been discussed, Sun Xiaofei will not delay the time anymore, return to his residence with Lucia, pack up and go out to buy all kinds of necessities. When the two of them had spent most of the day to complete this, it was already getting late, so they had to rest first, and wait until the next morning to leave Blazing City and rush to the Icewind Mountains.

Located at the junction of the Solaguey Empire and the Holy Empire, the Icewind Mountains are a continent of icy ice fields. The two countries relied on the Icewind Mountains to build their cities, and the people who lived there were generally of high physical quality. That kind of cold environment is suitable for most cultivators with ice-based talents or very different physiques.

The Icewind Mountains also have quite a few families, and most of these families that can develop in the Icewind Mountains are people who cultivate the water and ice systems. The vast majority of them are religious. Some people believe in the Lord God of Light, and some believe in the goddess of ice wind.

According to the number of believers and the geographical distribution, it is clear that the largest number of people believe in the Lord God of Light. Belief in the Goddess of the Icewind is confined to the vicinity of the Frozen Mountains.

Sun Xiaofei also inquired about the current situation on the continent in the city, the armies of the beast clan and several major empires, after dozens of battles of all sizes, each other's troops have lost, and the forces of both sides are currently in a state of stalemate in the territory of the Dark Night Empire.

This is due to the fact that the relationship between the Night Empire and the Holy Empire is not very good, and the Holy Empire and the other two empires are relatively close. Therefore, the Solaguyan Empire and the Raptors Empire did not send elite troops to aid the Night Empire.

The Night Empire is worried that sending a large number of troops to deal with the orcs will cause an emptiness in the country, and other empires will have the opportunity to invade the country's territory, not only will the country not be able to keep it, but it may also lose a large area of territory.

With this worry, the Night Empire will naturally not do its best in the big war with the beasts. The other three empires also have their own evil intentions and are unwilling to deal with the beasts, and the situation seems a little weird.

The orcs are also very smart, knowing that there are various interests and contradictions between the major empires. Therefore, when attacking human cities, they are all selective attacks. Attacking the Night Empire today, attacking the Raptors Empire tomorrow, and the turn of the Solaguey Empire the day after tomorrow will make several empires tired and unable to form a truly effective counterattack against them.

Sun Xiaofei learned about the war between the human race and the beast race on the Via Continent, and after falling into a stalemate, there was no sign of a large-scale war for the time being. At this time, Sun Xiaofei and Lucia had already hit the road and headed towards the Icewind Mountains.

It was a long way to get from Blazing City to the Icewind Mountain Range, and even if Sun Xiaofei and the others hurried non-stop, it would take at least a few months. There can't be any natural or man-made disasters in between, otherwise, this time will be much longer.

After Sun Xiaofei got the route map to the Icewind Mountains, he discussed with Lucia and finally decided on a more convenient route.

According to their planned route, the time of the trip would be shortened by one month, and if they were fast enough, it would take them almost three months to reach the Icewind Mountains.

Along the way, the two of them ate and slept in the open, and they both hurried to hurry, hardly stopping, only occasionally when needed, they would enter the city they passed through on the way, make a slight addition, and then leave in a hurry. When you get tired of running, you pause for a moment and rest for a while, and then continue to move towards the Icewind Mountains.

On the way, the two also encountered a lot of dangers, and finally survived with good cultivation. Those who are not threatening to them, Sun Xiaofei and the two can avoid them, and when they can't avoid it, they will also use what they have learned, making the other party suffer some hardships and retreat.

After stumbling all the way, they finally ran most of the distance. When passing by a tall mountain range, he was lucky enough to encounter a rare and powerful thunder beast, which Sun Xiaofei and Lucia subdued together, and then was accepted by Lucia as his magic pet.

Lucia rode this newly subdued thunder-type demonic beast to hurry, and the thunder beast could control the power of thunder and lightning between heaven and earth, and its flight speed was several times faster than Lucia's own. Lucia was grateful to Sun Xiaofei, if he hadn't cast a forbidden spell and blocked the space for the thunder beast's activities first, they wouldn't have subdued this thunder beast so easily.

If the thunder beast is bent on escaping, with the power of thunder and lightning, who can catch up.

Sun Xiaofei also saw this, so he laid down the forbidden technique as soon as possible, and first stopped the thunder beast from escaping, so that he could capture this thunder beast whose strength was not inferior to Xiaohui.

With the Thunder Beast walking, the speed of the two of them was even faster, and in just a few days, they came out of the territory of the Soracuay Empire and entered the territory of the Holy Empire.

The Holy Empire is located in a relatively remote area, and the climate is cold all year round, and the two of them are still a little uncomfortable at first, the temperature is getting colder and colder, and this low temperature weather can't do anything to them. It didn't take long for me to adjust my condition, and my expression was adjusted as usual.

After more than ten days of long travel, the end of the horizon in the distance could already be seen, and the wind was howling and the huge mountain covered with snow and ice was visible. That was the destination of their trip, the Icewind Mountains.

On the way to the Icewind Mountains, Sun Xiaofei found a city with human activities and decided to stop and enter the city to rest first. Anyway, it's not far from the Icewind Mountains, and it's estimated that it's only about a day's journey, so there's no need to rush there.

Besides, Sun Xiaofei had the heart to go into the city to find out the news, and it was also a good thing to know more about the Ice Wind Mountain Range. Lest they rush into it headlong when they get it, and instead of finding it, they lose their path and are trapped in the mountains.

Sun Xiaofei is as large as the Ice Wind Mountain Range, and there must be many dangers inside, if they are not careful, they are all in danger of falling. Even if he is already in the late Yuan Infant stage, he should not be careless, at least he must make some preparations first, and understand the Ice Wind Mountains in more detail before taking action, so that he can have greater certainty.

And the human city that appeared in front of him undoubtedly gave him a good choice.

Sun Xiaofei signaled, the thunder beast's fleshy wings fluttered, and it turned to the city below and glided down. In midair, lightning flickered, and he disappeared.
