Chapter 367 Polar Region 8
"Cough cough cough!" Cheng Jiu stood on the box, watching helplessly as the cracks continued to widen, slithering like venomous snakes towards the cave where the snow rabbit herd was located.
The two were not far apart to begin with, so how could those stupid rabbits possibly survive?
Cheng Jiu's heart pounded wildly, and an inexplicable, bittersweet emotion welled up within her, which she couldn't stop.
A chilling current flowed past the box, and the undercurrent split at Cheng Jiu's footsteps, like a silent, deadly sword that devours people.
Cheng Jiu squatted on the box; she couldn't even save herself!
Wherever the undercurrent passed, spiritual energy was quickly devoured and drained. Cheng Jiu noticed this, but he was powerless to resist. As the spiritual energy in his body circulated, he only felt sluggishness and pain.
Cheng Jiu looked at the dark river, which still shimmered even in the darkness, and his face turned pale.
This underground river is the Weak Water!
No, Cheng Jiu felt the silent chill emanating from the river. It was a combination of Weak Water and other waters, appearing under the ice. What difference was there between this and sleeping on a cliff? You must understand that Weak Water can unconsciously devour everything around it!
"Woo~"
My rabbit!
The nine-tailed white fox let out a mournful howl, and an invisible blue light suddenly burst forth, causing the surrounding ice to crack rapidly, and snow rabbits were pulled out by the invisible force.
"Moo~!"
My territory!
The Minotaur thought it was bad enough that the food it had finally managed to get was wiped out by these two guys, but it never expected that this charlatan would destroy its territory just for a bunch of rabbits!
The weak water gushed out like a fountain, its inherent power of absorption rapidly sweeping across the surroundings.
Even the three giant beasts had to avoid the Weak Water and quickly ran towards the high ground to the side.
Nothing can float on the Weak Water. Cheng Jiu lay on the Phoenix Cry wooden box, trying to maintain his posture, swaying with the waves of the Weak Water.
Fortunately, the Phoenix Weeping Bloodwood was not included in this list. Cheng Jiu was still mourning the impending fate of the Snow Rabbit Clan.
As a result, the invisible spiritual energy fluctuations quickly shattered the surrounding glaciers, and the rabbit was lifted up by the invisible force.
The Weak Water, now unrestrained, gushed forth rapidly, and the box where Cheng Jiu stood became her isolated island of survival.
Cheng Jiu: "..."
"Never mind," she said, "I'm used to it." She was tired of saying that.
It's good that the rabbit is alright; she's still alive.
The Arctic is a curse for her!
Cheng Jiu was certain.
The Weak Water carried her, setting sail and constantly swallowing everything in its path.
Cheng Jiu strongly suspected that the Weak Water was connected to the largest Black Water River. Although the two were thousands of miles apart, this was the world of cultivation, so nothing was impossible.
The dangers of the polar night seemed so insignificant in the face of the Weak Water tide. The silent Weak Water swallowed everything in its path. Cheng Jiu stood on her own two feet, not knowing where the Weak Water would take her.
Legend has it that the Weak Water has no source and no nearby location.
Cheng Jiu was pale; he needed to save himself quickly.
Cheng Jiu did gain something from this ordeal, besides the Phoenix Weeping Blood Wood.
Finally, the polar power exploded, and the remaining polar power was actively absorbed by Cheng Jiu, without being swallowed by the Weak Water.
Cheng Jiu called this power the blessing of the polar regions.
It was of little use, but it made Cheng Jiu more sensitive to the polar regions.
To give an example, in the past, due to various restrictions, Cheng Jiu was in the polar regions and had poor access to information, so he was completely clueless about the polar regions.
Now, the administrator has proactively granted Cheng Jiu some permissions, allowing him to log in and use certain functions.
In other words, Cheng Jiu can sense the surrounding environment and terrain through the polar power within his body.
This power was not limited by the Weak Water. Cheng Jiu tried his best to sense it, attempting to find a glimmer of hope on this journey.
Otherwise, she wouldn't know where the Weak Water would take her.
The Blackwater River? The River Styx? The River of Time?
No way! She doesn't want to be forgotten. What's the difference between that and dying?
(っ╥╯﹏╰╥c)
Ahead, there seems to be a sharp-angled glacier?
Although it wasn't very big, it was still bigger than the one she was standing on, and more importantly, it stood firm in the middle of the Weak Water!
Let's go!
Cheng Jiu worked tirelessly to adjust the treasure chest's trajectory, continuously advancing towards the Sharp Angle Glacier.
Bang! It ran aground.
Cheng Jiu quickly climbed onto the glacier and firmly grasped the Phoenix Weeping Blood wooden box that was about to be swept away. She had risked most of her life to get it, and if it was washed away, she would definitely vomit blood.
"what!"
The box, weighing tens of thousands of pounds, was pulled out of the Weak Water by Cheng Jiu and smashed!
The ground was dented deeply from the impact.
call!
Cheng Jiu looked at the glacier, and there came a vast expanse of Frost Spirit Marrow Flowers. They grew wildly, covering the glacier, with buds ready to bloom, tempting people to pick them!
Cheng Jiu's eyes were completely captivated by a glimpse of moonlight. What was this? What was this?
Moon Spirit Essence Flower!
Cheng Jiu couldn't help but smile. She knew it, she knew it.
Heaven loves her.
Everything before was merely a trivial test for Cheng Jiu Xiao Jiu!
They've struck it rich! They've really struck it rich!
If all of these are harvested, how many spirit stones would they be worth?
No wonder the people of Dingming City say that the higher the risk in the polar regions, the greater the reward!
That's absolutely true!
She deserves all of this!
Cheng Jiu's smile froze slightly; she had forgotten that because of Ruoshui, her storage ring was now unusable.
Cheng Jiu's gaze slowly shifted to the Phoenix Weeping Blood wooden box beside her. Although she disliked the fact that this thing had previously contained dead people, she found it even harder to accept that she had entered a treasure mountain and returned empty-handed!
At worst, she just won't have to sell them.
Cheng Jiu opened the box, and because there was a layer of brocade padding, the box was relatively clean overall.
Cheng Jiu slowly scraped off the surrounding layer, and threw the damaged Lin Wenjin into the Weak Water to be swallowed.
Anyway, the most crucial evidence has already been destroyed, and Lin Wenjin, who is left, can't prove anything. Keeping her around would only be annoying.
The box was large enough to hold an adult's suit of armor. Cheng Jiu pried open the relatively intact Lin Wenjin box on the east side, and a golden imperial edict fell out from the east side.
The fabric of the imperial edict is very special and is exceptionally well-preserved, showing that its owner cherished it greatly during his lifetime.
Cheng Jiu was somewhat surprised. She thought that such a malevolent creature buried in such an extreme place would not be so brazenly committed to evil deeds.
Surprisingly, there was another hidden secret.
Cheng Jiu unfolded the imperial edict. Although he was somewhat prepared, he was still disgusted by the scandals of the Lin Dynasty.
Feng Changli was appointed as a first-rank Protector of the Nation General, and was ordered to enter the palace in armor and with Lin Wenjin to express his gratitude for the Emperor's favor.
Those who don't know might think this is just a very ordinary imperial edict conferring official titles, right?
But that's the most disgusting part. Anyone with even a slight understanding of the history of the Lin Dynasty knows just how disgusting the filth hidden in this imperial edict is.
Feng Changli was a notorious traitorous general of the Lin Dynasty. He came from a powerful family, and his first ancestor had fought alongside the founder of the Lin Dynasty and received a title.
Later, he volunteered to go to the harsh northern frontier to defend against the northern barbarians and the beast tides that could attack at any time.
Later, the dynasty collapsed and split into three dynasties. The Feng family remained diligent and loyal to the Lin dynasty, and refused the offer of the then-friendly Princess Qiongyun.
Continue to defend the Lin Dynasty, in the northern border.
Feng Changli was the most dazzling pearl of the Feng family at that time. He was born into the Martial Realm and at the age of twelve, he made a name for himself in the Northern Territory, making the invading demon race in the Northern Territory tremble with fear.
In Cheng Jiu's previous life, he would have been a young general like Huo Qubing.
Moreover, the Feng family was known for its integrity and loyalty, with generations of members sacrificing their lives for the Lin dynasty.
Do not vie for power, do not seize profits.
When Feng Changli was twenty-one years old, he led his army to a great victory against the invading northern demon army, saving the Lin Dynasty from danger and achieving great military exploits.
This young general, renowned for his military exploits and the loyalty of his entire family, donned armor and entered the palace to assassinate the emperor, intending to rebel.
The young general was imprisoned, beheaded at the Meridian Gate, his family property was confiscated, and his entire clan was exiled.
Apart from the young general, the Feng family consisted entirely of women and children. The battle was too fierce, and all the men of the Feng family died in the battle.
The events unfolded far too suddenly, and the emperor acted too decisively, even though Feng Changli insisted that he had been ordered to enter the palace.
But the missing imperial edict became a sharp blade that left Feng Changli speechless.
Upon learning that his mother and grandmother had died of illness during their exile, the spirited young general, in despair, committed suicide in the imperial prison!
Everyone knew the young general was innocent, but there was no evidence. Unexpectedly, the evidence appeared here. It seems that the armor was also worn by the young general when he was alive.
What exactly does the Lin dynasty want to achieve?
Cheng Jiu felt disgusted and itchy all over. He was extremely mean and ungrateful, and extremely heartless and ruthless!
The Feng family fought for the Lin Dynasty for generations, and countless people died for the country. However, the Lin royal family did not even give the Feng family the last bit of dignity. Even after death, they did not allow their meritorious officials to rest in peace. Instead, they transformed them into this inhuman and ghostly creature and suppressed it here.
And this imperial edict, is it meant to make Feng Changli die with his eyes open in disgrace?
What exactly did the Feng family do to offend the Lin royal family and deserve such treatment?
Cheng Jiu's impression of the Lin Dynasty was extremely low.
Holding the imperial edict that had once driven a general to his death, Cheng Jiu was not one to meddle in other people's business, but if given the chance, she would definitely clear his name.
History should not be altered, and crimes should not be buried.
Besides, General Feng is a hero!
Cheng Jiu suppressed his complicated emotions and continued cleaning the inside of the box.
To be honest, the Lin family emperor was really disgusting. The burial of General Feng Xiaojun was done with the same Lin Wenjin that the Feng family had always honored. What kind of nonsense is this, killing you and then making you bring your own coffin?
Cheng Jiu thought that if she were a member of the Feng family, she would definitely fight the Lin Dynasty to the death!
After cleaning up all the remaining pieces of cloth, Cheng Jiu immersed the Bloodstained Wood in the Weak Water to wash it.
Weak water washes away all evil, making one cleaner with each wash.
After placing the box down, Cheng Jiu began carefully picking these precious medicinal herbs.
One flower, two flowers—just halfway up the mountain, the box was already overflowing.
Cheng Jiu wrapped the precious Moon Spirit Essence Flower in ice and snow, intending to keep it separate after escaping this place.
Fortunately, the polar moon spirit flower is not delicate; otherwise, Cheng Jiu would be heartbroken if it lost even a little bit of its medicinal effect.
"Huh? Huh?"
A colossal white beast chased after the Weak Water, relentlessly searching for something along the way.
The fox clearly said the little human was here.
where?
Why can't I see it?
Cheng Jiu, who was picking Moon Spirit Essence Flowers, heard a familiar voice and felt a sudden, intense pain all over his body.
The experience of being ejected was hardly a pleasant one.
"Holy crap!"
Look, little human!
The white behemoth was overjoyed and let out a long roar. It moved with great agility among the remaining glaciers of the Weak Water, leaping high with its massive body.
Cheng Jiu's face turned pale. "Help! I'm being crushed to death!"
The giant beast transformed into a medium-sized small beast the instant it landed.
"Huh?"
It's so cute, but Cheng Jiu can't smile. If she had an expression, it would probably be like that world-famous painting—The Scream!
Σ( ° △ °|||)︴
In other words, that little beast was actually this giant, giant beast!
No wonder the little cloud beast was bullied so badly!
She wronged it! I'm sorry, Rainbow Dash!
( ?? ﹏ ?? )
"Holy crap!"
Little humans!
The white little beast nuzzled affectionately against Cheng Jiu's waist, pulling him back from his daze.
"Giant, giant beast grandpa!"
"Holy crap!"
Yes, it's me!
His flat face revealed a sense of pride and self-righteousness.
You little human have great taste!
"Holy crap!"
It's dangerous here, I'll take you out!
Cheng Jiu hesitated, looking at the giant beast's crouching body: "Is this asking me to go up?"
"Ding! Ding!"
Cheng Jiu looked at the box next to him with some distress.
The giant beast immediately knew what was going on. It opened its massive maw and swallowed the box whole.
"Holy crap!"
You can come up now!
Cheng Jiu placed all the Moon Marrow Spirit Flowers on the little beast's back and nimbly climbed onto it.
"Holy crap!"
Seeing that Cheng Jiu was seated, the little beast quickly ran around. Its huge body did not appear clumsy in the Weak Water, but rather extremely agile!
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
A huge white figure moved nimbly through the Weak Water, its massive size showing no clumsiness. The Weak Water was turbulent yet calm, and every step it took was a brush with death.
Cheng Jiu felt the splashing water droplets brush past him, and his heart pounded with the movements of the giant beast!
Finally, the giant beast leaped, and the powerful force from its back kicked Fuchuan, who had landed there, into the abyss!
Safe!
When Cheng Jiu got off the giant beast, his limbs were weak, and he lay sprawled on the ice without any regard for his image. At this moment, the extreme cold in the air could not compare to the burning passion in his heart.
"Thank you for saving me again!" Cheng Jiu's expression was incredibly earnest at this moment.
"Holy crap!"
The giant beast affectionately licked Cheng Jiu, as if to say, "Don't be shy, little human!"
"Moo~"
A mournful roar came from the side, and a huge bull-headed beast poked its head out from somewhere, looking at the white beast with resentful eyes.
"Huh?"
"Moo~! Moo~!"
My territory has been destroyed, aren't you going to say a few words?
The minotaur looked at its former territory and glared at one of the culprits!
"Holy crap!"
The white behemoth felt guilty yet self-righteous. "I didn't destroy your territory; you should go find the culprit, the fox."
"Moo~!"
The fox said it wanted me to come find you!
"Holy crap! Holy crap?"
Seriously? That fox is so shameless!
"Moo~!"
Anyway, I don't care. That fox has already compensated me. Now it's your turn, or else we'll fight!
