Iceberg Blossoming
"It's just a pity that Tang Ge isn't here." Xia Ming sighed, Tang Ge was swept away by the beast tide and his whereabouts are still unknown. If Tang Ge were here, with him being a fifth-level peak warrior, the three-man team would have been unbeatable, and it's highly likely they could have obtained the Thousand Year Ice Jade in one go.
"That guy shouldn't die so easily, they say good people don't live long, but troublemakers live for a thousand years." Su Weiwei smiled lightly and made a rare joke to comfort Xia Ming.
Xia Ming also showed a smile on his face. Thinking about it, Tang Ge that dead ghost was always lively and energetic everywhere, he wouldn't die.
Xia Ming and Su Wei walked side by side, their partnership growing more harmonious with each passing day. A warrior and a mage, they were originally a perfect combination, and as they gained a deeper understanding of each other's personalities and ways of doing things, they could almost understand each other's intentions with just a simple gesture, reacting quickly to any situation that arose.
Xia Ming and Su Wei walked in the forest, both of them began to pay attention to the fluctuations of the elements around them. Whenever a spiritual object like Qian Nian Bing Jue appeared in the world, it would inevitably cause elemental abnormalities. With their current cultivation level, they could not be deceived by these elemental abnormalities.
However, after searching for several hours, they still did not find any movement. In the patient search, the two could only search and analyze the current situation at the same time.
"As it stands now, Julian and Gosla are our greatest opponents in obtaining the Millennium Ice. Both of them are sixth-level experts. Julian seems to have entered the sixth level for some time, with a deep foundation that doesn't allow for any carelessness. As for Gosla, he appears to have just recently advanced, but his secret methods are quite unusual, and on top of that, he has many mercenaries helping him..." Su Weiwei analyzed it incisively, pointing out the situation of each person one by one.
Xia Ming nodded: "Yulian is indeed the strongest among these people, and it can be seen that he is ruthless and has a lot of heart. Gosla is strong, but his surname Ge doesn't have such a sinister heart, from the beginning he fought alone against the Lion King. However, what I'm most worried about is not these young generations, but afraid that other powerful people will notice the Thousand Year Ice...”
Xia Ming's greatest concern was still the master who exceeded level 6. To say nothing of others, even if an Aurous Magic Master came, they could only leave with their tails between their legs, unable to gain any advantage.
"It should be very few, it seems that someone is guiding, everyone's attention is focused on the Unicorn King, thinking that these people are all here to hunt and kill the Unicorn King, but only a few know the real secret." Su Weiwei said.
"I hope so."
As long as the old masters don't intervene, there are still some opportunities.
"Just now, Julian and the others left in a northerly direction. They should be clear about the general range of the Millennium Ice Seal. We can just follow them. As long as we are within a rough range, it's not difficult to detect the elemental fluctuations when the Millennium Ice Seal appears with Xiaoming's spiritual sense."
With the map in hand, the two of them headed north once again. The more they went north into the Misty Forest, the more dangerous it became. They had to be extra careful not to attract the attention of powerful magical beasts.
During this time, Xia Ming mainly did one thing, which was studying the Book of Eternity.
That's right, The Book of Eternity!
After his strength broke through the sixth level, his spiritual power surged again, and the seal of the Eternal Book was broken open by another layer.
"All knowledge of potions, enchantments, and runes below level 8 can be opened, and magic spells are no exception. All magic spells below level 8 can be easily browsed." Xia Ming checked the Eternal Book in the spiritual sea again, this time the seal of the Eternal Book was lifted, which also brought him great benefits, one of the greatest gains being magic spells, magic spells below level 8.
The Book of Eternity is said to be the top treasure of the magical profession. After this seal was broken, Xiaoming discovered many rare magic spells. The last time he used Meteor Shower was one of them, and there were several other very practical magic spells that Xiaoming also remembered, planning to study carefully.
"There are also rare magic spells that can be used above level 7, and if any of these spells were to be taken to the mainland, they would probably cause a sensation. Unfortunately, my current strength is not up to that level, so I still can't use them." Xiaoming shook his head, the rare magic spells recorded in the Eternal Book are basically all above level 7, which only magic masters of that level or higher can use, unfortunately he can't use them yet.
Suddenly, Xiaoming found a faint light spot in the sea of consciousness, which was the knowledge imparted by the Eternal Book.
"Huh, is this... new knowledge from the Book of Eternity?"
Xia Ming was a little surprised because at that time, the Eternal Book brought new knowledge that he had never touched before.
"Tempering! It's actually tempering!"
New knowledge, is the art of smithing. On the continent of Canaan, smithing was also a very difficult technique to master, this technology was generally mastered by the dwarven tribes, although humans also had mastery, but few were proficient.
"This way, when I return to the academy, I can forge a staff for myself. The Flame Staff is really not keeping up." Xiaoming thought to himself, but he didn't know what level of forging technique was recorded in the Eternal Book, and it probably wouldn't be too bad anyway.
Xia Ming stroked the Earth Flame Staff in his hand, this staff which had cost several thousand gold coins at the time, was also due for a change. Xia Ming fiddled with the Earth Flame Staff, drawing out strand after strand of staff flowers - if he were to switch to a higher quality magic staff, he was confident that he could once again increase the speed of his spell chanting by another level.
"It turns out that the Eternal Book is not just the previous knowledge, but rather, with the breaking of the seal, new knowledge has emerged." Xia Ming suddenly found it interesting.
Just as Xia Ming was about to carefully examine the Book of Eternity, his spiritual power suddenly stirred slightly, sensing a thread of abnormal elemental fluctuations coming from the north and seemingly from a high place.
Along the direction of the most obvious element fluctuation, Xiaoming saw a mountain that was not very high, and the most intense element fluctuation was at the top of the mountain.
Su Weiwei also seemed to have noticed something, her beautiful eyes scanning towards the top of the mountain.
"In that case, let's head to the location of the Millennium Ice Jade!" Xiaoming made a swift decision and his figure darted out. Su Weiwei also quickly got up and walked alongside Xiaoming, both of their speeds extremely fast.
Two people quickly traversed through the forest, and before long they had climbed up the mountain, where they saw several familiar silhouettes again.
"Yurian, Gosura! They've come too!"
Those few familiar figures were Yurian and Gosla, the two of them did not stand together, but separated. The mercenaries under Gosla's command could not keep up with Gosla's speed and were still far away.
Yulian and Gosla also met Xiaoming and Su Weiwei, their eyes were cold, the thousand-year-old ice was born, they all had to get what they wanted, of course, the fewer competitors the better, at that time it would be inevitable another fight, of course, this fight would not be as simple as the one-horned lion king, it would definitely be a bloody battle.
"On the mountain top." As the elemental fluctuations drew closer, Xiaoming's spiritual sense perception became increasingly acute. Previously, he could only vaguely sense a direction, but this time it was completely locked onto the mountain top.
Xia Ming and Su Weiwei ignored Yulian's two people and rushed quickly to the top of the mountain.
Yurian and Godzilla also didn't dare to delay, both rushing towards the mountain top.
"It's so hot, this is... magma!" Xiaoming's eyes narrowed, after climbing to the top of the mountain, he unexpectedly found a huge heavenly pool, with thick fire elements bursting out from it. The heavenly pool was filled with rolling magma, bubbling and churning, emitting bubbles.
"Could it be that the thousand-year-old ice crystal was nurtured in this magma?" Xia Ming's mind rose with this thought, and he swept his gaze around, but didn't find any other abnormalities, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Gosla and Yurian also climbed to the top of the mountain, standing apart from each other, their eyes flickering on Xiaoming and Su Weiwei, occasionally paying attention to the lava.
In just a few minutes, Dandong and Huoyuer also appeared. These two people almost arrived at the same time. Seeing Xiaoming and the others, they were all stunned for a moment, not expecting that they would be the last to arrive.
Xia Ming felt a slight relief, fortunately, not many unexpected guests had arrived. What he was most worried about was the appearance of other powerful beings. However, it seemed that the news of the Thousand Year Ice Coffin was indeed sealed very secretly, and only a limited number of people knew about it. Probably, most people thought that everyone was hunting the Unicorn Lion King, and were completely unaware of the existence of a sixth-level magic beast.
As Xia Ming pondered, his eyebrows slightly moved, and he felt the elemental fluctuations around him suddenly converge. The bubbles in the magma pool churned as if boiling, with a faint glow within, seemingly on the verge of bursting out at any moment.
"Thousand Year Ice Frost!" Huo Yuer's gaze was fixed on the bright light in the lava pool, her red lips slightly parted.
