Chapter 1585: Extreme Cold

Two days later, Su Xiao was riding on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's back, with Amu running rapidly behind.

The biting cold wind blew, whipping up snow across the sky. At this time, Su Xiao had arrived at the Northern Territory, located on a snowfield named Nitani. Once on the snowfield, the happiest one was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang.

"Nitani Snowfield, very soon."

Su Xiao put away the map in his hand. According to the information Moi Nora revealed before she died, the Land of Death was located on an iceberg deep in the Northern Territory.

In fact, once you reached the Nitani Snowfield, you could no longer see civilians of the Northern Territory. The area of the Northern Territory was three times that of the Central Plains and twice that of the South; over 70% of the area here was unsuitable for living.

After arriving at the Nitani Snowfield, Su Xiao discovered that the daytime temperature here could reach minus 52 degrees. At this temperature, if you spat, it would freeze into an ice cube before hitting the ground.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Amu didn't care about the temperature here at all, and even wanted to lie in the snow for a nap, while Su Xiao relied on his powerful physique to resist it.

The sky was a hazy white, and the sun couldn't be seen at all. The Nitani Snowfield was a polar day zone, where the night lasted only 2–3 hours.

The environment here was already harsh enough, but Su Xiao still had to go deeper into the snowfield to reach the Eternal Frozen Sea, a place where even Northern Territory people wouldn't go.

At the edge of the Nitani Snowfield, the wind and snow howled. Zango stepped deep and shallow in the snow. This little brother could no longer see his former might; his face was covered in gray-white char, and the animal skin he wore was tattered. Even if someone said he was a scavenger, they would believe it.

Zango grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth, crunching and chewing. In his current appearance, where did he look like an assassin from the Void?

Deep in the snowfield, Su Xiao took out fresh water from his storage space. After drinking two mouthfuls, the fresh water in the bottle froze into an ice lump.

The temperature had reached a terrifying minus 67 degrees, fortunately not to the extent that Su Xiao couldn't maintain his body temperature.

By now, Su Xiao understood why the Moi family heirloom was used for cold protection. The Moi family's strength was clearly related to the Land of Death. With the temperature of the Nitani Snowfield, they didn't need to guard the Land of Death at all, or rather, they couldn't guard this place either.

The Nitani Snowfield was cold to this extent; once they reached the Eternal Frozen Sea, it could freeze a witch to death.

The low temperature of the snowfield was indeed dangerous, but fortunately, there were basically no living creatures here. Except for the pursuit from behind, Su Xiao was unimpeded all the way.

As the temperature dropped rapidly, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang carried Su Xiao to the end of the snowfield. Observing with the naked eye, the front was actually a snowfield, but if you shoveled away the accumulated snow, you would find that the bottom was a frozen sea surface.

The Eternal Frozen Sea had arrived. Just stepping into the Eternal Frozen Sea area, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang shivered. Once here, even Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang felt cold, while Amu remained sturdy.

Su Xiao took out the temperature measuring device from his bosom. The bright red minus 79 degrees on it told him just how cold the Eternal Frozen Sea was.

"Almost there, hold on."

Su Xiao patted Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's back. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang seemed to feel that it was shameful for the King of the Snowfield to be afraid of the cold. It shook its head, meaning it wasn't cold at all.

Two hours later, a stumbling figure stepped into the Eternal Frozen Sea area. Zango's lips were trembling slightly. The Bajing race could adapt to most harsh environments and could even survive in an oxygen-free environment. The flames of thousands of degrees were just helping them keep warm, but they, who lived on high-temperature planets, didn't seem to have very good resistance to low temperatures.

"I, I, am, a warrior, just... low, low, low temperature..."

Zango hugged his shoulders with both hands, his teeth colliding up and down at a speed of dozens of times per second.

"Ah, ah, ah-choo!"

Zango let out a loud sneeze, and the surrounding snow was blown away. After sniffing his snot hard, he continued forward. Although reckless and a bit of a blockhead, his persistence was worthy of respect.

The cold wind wailed like a ghost. Su Xiao wore cold-protection clothing; the surrounding temperature of minus 105 degrees was no joke. At this temperature, steel would transform from 'austenite' to 'martensite'. Simply put, steel would be as fragile as glass at this temperature.

*Tut-tut-tut... *

A strange sound came. Su Xiao leaned over to look at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang in front of him.

"Xiang Bubu, if you're cold, put on the cold-protection clothing."

"Woof~"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked, indicating it wasn't cold at all, but the 'tut-tut-tut' sound just now was clearly its teeth colliding with each other.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang quietly sniffed its snot; it was actually almost frozen into a dog.

The further forward, the lower the temperature. After going deep into the Eternal Frozen Sea, the temperature dropped from minus 105 degrees to minus 178 degrees.

With a crisp *crack*, Su Xiao felt a cold wind drill in from his shoulder. The Piana microbial cold-protection clothing had cracked!

The sub-zero low temperature was different from flame temperature. Once the sub-zero temperature exceeded 150 degrees, it became increasingly terrifying. It was fine for a short time at this temperature, but it required a very strong physique for a long time.

When the temperature reached minus 273.15 degrees, that was a qualitative change. Minus 273.15 degrees was called absolute zero. At this temperature, the thermal motion of internal molecules would stop completely, and they would be in a static state.

Judging from the current momentum, continuing to go deep into the Eternal Frozen Sea, the temperature being lower than minus 200 degrees was a matter of minutes.

"Woof~"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang in front of Su Xiao barked low, meaning: "Master, hurry up and give me the cold-protection clothing, it's too cold, this dog will never show off again."

"Too late."

Su Xiao knocked on the cold-protection clothing on his arm. With a crisp *snap*, the entire cold-protection clothing shattered. At the low temperature of minus 197 degrees, the cold-protection clothing sacrificed itself.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's mouth still made a *tut-tut-tut* sound. After a while, Su Xiao gritted his teeth; if he didn't do this, he wouldn't be far from *tut-tut-tut* either.

Beside Su Xiao and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu's style changed. This guy was gnawing on an animal leg. At this time, the texture of the meat was similar to soda crackers, very crispy. Looking at Amu's appearance, it seemed like it was here for a vacation in the extreme cold zone...

"Amu, don't you feel cold?"

Su Xiao tightened his collar. Amu looked at him blankly.

"I'm not cold, what is cold,"

"..."

"..."

Su Xiao and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang didn't speak, braving the cold wind and flying snow to continue forward. By now, they couldn't ride Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang anymore; the consumption of stamina would lead to a drop in body temperature, which would kill it.

After continuing forward for three hours, the temperature reached minus 225 degrees. Su Xiao, who was moving forward, began to feel the bone-chilling cold. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was running in circles to increase the heat in its body.

*Boom! *

The alchemy bomb exploded. Su Xiao and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang dashed to the flames of the explosion, however... it didn't have much effect.

"It's around here."

Su Xiao patted the snow on his head. According to Moi Nora, the Land of Death was on top of an iceberg, and the iceberg was nearby.

Su Xiao didn't search for too long before seeing the iceberg in the flying snow. Or rather, it would be hard not to see it. This iceberg was too high, conservatively estimated to be several thousand meters high, and its length was boundless.

Arriving at the bottom of the iceberg, Su Xiao glanced at the temperature measuring device in his hand and threw it away. This thing had gone off the charts, fixed at minus 235 degrees.

Looking up at the iceberg, the veins on the back of Su Xiao's hand bulged. With a crisp *crack*, his five fingers pierced into the hard ice.

Just after climbing up more than ten meters, Su Xiao felt the temperature drop sharply, and a layer of ice crystals appeared on his body.

"Xiang Bubu, wait here, keep moving. If that guy chases after you, find a way to attract him."

"Woof!"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked shivering. Beside it, Amu grabbed the rope hanging from Su Xiao's waist and climbed upward. Once here, Amu's combat power became the strongest; it wouldn't be affected by the low temperature.

*Crack, crack... *

Su Xiao gradually climbed toward the top of the iceberg, breathing white air from his mouth. The stinging pain of his fingers touching the hard ice was exceptionally clear. He couldn't climb up quickly; the higher he went, the lower the temperature. Increasing his height quickly here would likely lead to frostbite from the sharply dropping low temperature, or even freezing into an ice lump, thereby falling off the iceberg and shattering. ===== CHAPTER 1586 =====
