Chapter 2654: Magical Ice Flower Valley

Lin Feng opened his eyes, and with a slight gesture, the blue flame gradually extinguished. Slowly, the surrounding airflow began to stir again, and the blue flame transformed into a small flicker, flew back to Lin Feng’s hand, and then disappeared.

Countless small particles emitting a pale blue glow appeared in Lin Feng’s hand. The Cold Condensing Pill has a tremendous effect on cultivators and demon beasts with cold attributes, significantly enhancing their strength. It is a rare Universe Grade Elixir.

Lin Feng smiled faintly, placed these Cold Condensing Pills into a bottle, then stored it in his space, flew back to the edge of the Myriad Ice Water Springs, and said to everyone, "We can go."

"Great! Boss, you did it!" Tangyuan flew onto Lin Feng’s shoulder and said. It looked at the now empty Myriad Ice Water Springs and Lin Feng’s satisfied expression; this time the harvest must have been significant.

"Let’s go!" Ma Biaohu walked at the front. Although he didn’t know what kind of elixir the boss refined, just being able to leave this place was good. Now he only thought of heading quickly to the Ice Flower Valley, the name of which sounded much better than Myriad Ice Water Springs.

The Purple Thunder Transforming Sky Dragon and Nether Thunder Devouring Heaven followed closely behind Lin Feng...

How did Lin Feng do it?

Ao Lin slowly walked at the back, and observing everything Lin Feng did, developed a deep awe for this young man. He truly didn’t expect Lin Feng to unravel the secret of Myriad Ice Water Springs, a forbidden area for the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan for thousands of years. They had speculated what magical properties the Myriad Ice Water Springs might possess, but since it was sealed, no one dared venture in. Yet Lin Feng effortlessly helped them solve such a major problem.

Though he hadn’t entered the Extreme Cold Ice Cave before, Lin Feng’s survival proved his strength to be astonishing. He even managed to drain the Myriad Ice Water Springs, allowing the forbidden area to be lifted. The next place was Ice Flower Valley; if Lin Feng could resolve the issues there, then...

Thinking of this, Ao Lin felt a bit ashamed. As the Clan Leader of the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan, he hadn’t fulfilled his duties. Without joining Lin Feng at the Myriad Ice Water Springs, he might never have learned its secret. Years ago, many clan members who ventured there vanished without a trace, marking it as a dangerous place. Some had even been frozen into ice blocks by the Myriad Ice Water Springs and subsequently disappeared, making it a forbidden area for the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan. Coming with Lin Feng to the Myriad Ice Water Springs and unravelling its secret was a great relief.

Lin Feng is truly rare, possessing both exceptional intellect and courage, as well as impressively awe-inspiring strength. The Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan is immensely fortunate to have encountered someone like him. He didn’t know how to thank Lin Feng, who saved his beloved granddaughter, helped the clan refine crucial elixirs, and revealed the secret of the Myriad Ice Water Springs. Lin Feng is indeed a great benefactor of the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan.

"Clan Leader, in which direction is Ice Flower Valley?" Lin Feng asked when he noticed Ao Lin trailing behind and seemingly deep in thought.

"Head north all the way; it will take a few months," Ao Lin replied as he returned to Lin Feng’s side, remembering that Myriad Ice Water Springs was in the southern part of the Snow Peak Ice Field, while Ice Flower Valley was in the northernmost part of the Snow Peak Ice Field, right at the boundary shared with the Ice Peak Wolf Clan.

"What? That far!" Tangyuan swayed its head and said, feeling that ever since they set out on this adventure, it has been a continuous journey. The Southern Region is astoundingly vast, with each island spanning a great area, and now it just wants to find a place to eat some meat and have a nice sleep.

Upon hearing Tangyuan say this, Ao Lin chuckled, then looked at Lin Feng and said, "Brother Lin, the distance to Ice Flower Valley is significant; let’s ride there."

He knew that walking would take a long time and that there weren’t any remarkable terrains on the way to Ice Flower Valley, so taking the Snow Spirit Deer, unique to the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan, would be much quicker.

Lin Feng looked at Ao Lin, surprised to learn there were mounts on the Snow Peak Ice Field. He nodded, saying to Ao Lin, "I’ll follow your lead."

Ao Lin snapped his fingers in the air, and instantly a gust of wind rolled up layers of white snow. Clear hoof sounds approached from afar, and in a blink, four giant demon beasts appeared in everyone’s sight.

Each demon beast was over a dozen yards long and several yards tall, covered in snow-white fur with horns atop their heads, long limbs, resembling giant deer, emanating a sacred white glow. They drew an ice sled behind them.

"Goodness, what are those?" Tangyuan exclaimed at the sight of the enormous creatures, hiding on Lin Feng’s shoulder. Though the demon beasts seemed docile, it hadn’t expected to see demon beasts other than those of the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan on the Snow Peak Ice Field.

Ao Lin walked over to the Snow Spirit Deer and patted its head, then explained to everyone, "These four Snow Spirit Deer are my mounts, capable of covering ten thousand miles daily at incredible speed. Let’s get on."

He had found these small deer at the border of the Snow Peak Ice Field. They were tiny then, possibly abandoned by demon hunters from other islands. Feeling pity for them, he took them in, never imagining they would someday become his mounts.

Ma Biaohu nodded, first jumping onto the sled, and then everyone sat on the sled. With Ao Lin’s command, the Snow Spirit Deer shot out like lightning...

As they raced through the snow, the speed was so fast that everyone on the sled couldn’t open their eyes, and they could clearly feel the cold wind whistling past. The clash of the Snow Spirit Deer’s hooves with the icy surface produced a clattering sound.

"This speed is really extraordinary!" Ma Biaohu shouted excitedly on the sled, feeling thrilled and not expecting that this demon beast could run so fast.

"Indeed!" the Purple Thunder Transforming Sky Dragon and the Nether Thunder Heaven Devouring Tiger chimed in.

"Wow! This is amazing." Tangyuan lay in Ma Biaohu’s arms, snuggling against him, thinking finally he could get a good sleep.

Lin Feng sat on the Snow Spirit Deer, feeling that these deer were definitely not ordinary demon beasts. Such speed surprised him, and living on Snow Hidden Island, they must be very resistant to cold. Could there be other races on this island? But he didn’t pursue this question further.

Ao Lin, hearing everyone’s praise for the Snow Spirit Deer, felt very proud. These demon beasts naturally possessed extremely fast speeds, making them the best for traveling on the Snow Peak Ice Field, but he humbly smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad!"

The Snow Spirit Deer galloped on the vast ice field for over a dozen days, finally reaching near the Ice Flower Valley. The surrounding terrain here was rugged, making it impossible for the Snow Spirit Deer to enter, so they had to disembark and walk. The Ice Flower Valley lay at the border of the Snow Peak Ice Field and was within the shared domain of the Ice Peak Wolf Clan and the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan, making it extremely dangerous.

Before them appeared a not very high ice mountain, yet it was so long that the end couldn’t be seen, stretching at least tens of thousands of miles. From afar, the ice mountain was filled with ice pillars standing tall, with no visible path and very steep.

But at the foot of the mountain, a small cave entrance the size of one person could be seen. Inside, it was pitch dark to the point where one couldn’t see their hand in front of them, and a layer of transparent ice covered the entrance. Ao Lin rhythmically knocked on the ice three times, and then the ice disappeared.

"Isn’t this the same as the ice gate we came through when we first reached the Snow Peak Ice Field?" Ma Biaohu suddenly remembered he had foolishly knocked on the ice gate before, then said it was real, not expecting such a strange gate here as well.

"That’s right." Ao Lin replied while leading everyone into the ice mountain, explaining that the invisible ice gate was also set up through a secret technique by the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Tribe, playing a significant role in preventing foreign invasions.

"How much longer?" Lin Feng asked Ao Lin. He knew riding the Snow Spirit Deer had saved a lot of time, and it shouldn’t take too long to traverse through this mountain cave.

"About two more days. This place is already at the boundary between the Ice Sealing Wolf Clan and the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan. Beyond the ice mountain is the Ice Flower Valley, which is the shared territory of both clans." Ao Lin thought and said. This mountain acts as the border line, and due to the special terrain, generally, the people of the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan wouldn’t come to this side, only some elders guard within the mountain to prevent invasions from the Ice Peak Wolf Clan.

Inside the icy cave tunnel, it was very dark, and the sound of eerie winds could be heard howling around, quite terrifying. Inside, the tunnels branched out in all directions, resembling a maze. Without a guide, one would definitely get lost.

Everyone closely followed Ao Lin, except for Lin Feng, who walked side by side with Ao Lin, inquiring as they walked.

"Clan Leader, why is the Ice Flower Valley a forbidden land?" Lin Feng asked. The Extreme Cold Ice Cave and Myriad Ice Water Springs before had certain dangers, so the Ice Flower Valley should be similar.

Hearing Lin Feng ask this, Ao Lin replied, "Previously, someone accidentally entered the valley, but before going far, they turned into an ice sculpture. No one knows why. From the outside, the Ice Flower Valley appears very ordinary, just like other valleys, but once you go inside, everything freezes into an ice sculpture. Since then, no one dares to explore it. In both our Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan and the Ice Peak Wolf Clan, it’s designated as a forbidden area."

"Is it the same for demon beasts of any rank?" Lin Feng continued to ask, wanting to know if this valley affects demon beasts above the rank of Demon Venerable.

"That is unknown, but definitely below that rank." Ao Lin answered.

Lin Feng nodded, continuing to ask, "Is it the same for all life forms?"

"Yes, not just for the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan, but the Ice Peak Wolf Clan too." Ao Lin replied, then introduced to Lin Feng, "This island is actually called Snow Hidden Island. Our Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan occupies one half, and the Ice Peak Clan occupies the other. Only our side is called the Snow Peak Ice Field, and for millions of years, we’ve never crossed the boundary."

"I see." Listening to Ao Lin’s words, Lin Feng finally knew what the island was called. Until now, he always thought this island was called the Snow Peak Ice Field, realizing now it was just the name given by the Ao Xue Hiding Fox Clan. Observing the island from above, he noticed it was significantly larger than Shuangcheng Island, and now he even developed an interest in the other side held by the Ice Peak Wolf Clan.
