"We've finally reached the far north."
Looking at the blank space on the map, Qing Mu knew that he had arrived at his destination. This was a place that humans had never set foot in, so there was naturally no map there.
As for the danger warnings marked above, he simply ignored them.
He wouldn't have come if it wasn't dangerous!
"Da na, da na~" (What kind of spirit beast are we going to hunt?)
At this moment, Ivysaur, standing beside Qingmu, looked at her with some curiosity.
Ivysaur knew that Qing Mu had traveled a long way to such a remote place, so it couldn't be just for leveling up; he must also have the intention of hunting for the seventh spirit ring.
Especially since their current level is not far from level 70 and they could break through at any time, their need for the seventh spirit ring is even more urgent.
Upon hearing this, Qing Mu smiled slightly and said, "It depends on luck. If we can find that big worm that eats and sleeps and then eats again, that would be best. If we can't find it, then we can only look for other 100,000-year-old soul beasts."
Although the far north is not as strong as the Star Dou Great Forest, it still has many soul beasts that are over 100,000 years old, such as the Ice Bear King Xiaobai, which is close to 200,000 years old, and the Titan Snow Demon King, which is over 200,000 years old. These can all be candidates for Qing Mu's seventh soul ring.
As for the stronger Ice Emperor and even the Snow Emperor, Qing Mu felt that even if his strength had improved compared to when he fought the Crimson King, he would most likely still be no match for the two soul beasts, so he was not considering them for the time being.
After all, both of them possess ice attributes at the level of ultimate ice, which is enough to break through the ice immunity provided by the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass.
"It's a pity that Ivysaur doesn't have the ability to Mega Evolve yet. Otherwise, the Thick Fat ability combined with Ice and Fire immunity would definitely further enhance Ivysaur's Ice resistance. Even if it can't completely resist Extreme Ice, it could still significantly reduce its power."
In this way, even the Ice Emperor, who is nearly 400,000 years old, might be able to put up a fight.
Thinking of this, Qing Mu felt a little regretful. His current combat strength had reached the peak of level 96. If he were to use a combination skill and the Wood Realm descended, the 290,000-year-old Crimson King would have a high chance of falling into his hands.
Even the current level 98 Golden Crocodile Douluo's true strength is probably not much higher than Qing Mu's when he uses the combination skill "Wood World Descent".
If we add the huge boost brought by Mega Evolution, there should be no Soul Master below level 99 who can rival him.
It's important to understand that the current level 99 is not the same as the level 99 breakthrough of later generations.
Both Poseidon and Sendou are divine servants who can mobilize divine power, and their combat strength can be greatly enhanced in a battlefield suitable for them.
Tang Chen, a genius, cultivated to level 99 on his own and even created the divine skill "Great Sumeru Hammer Ring Explosion".
Not to mention that Tang Chen, who obtained the Asura Demon Sword and passed the Eight Trials of the Asura God, possessed the ideal body of a demigod, his strength might even surpass that of Poseidon, who used the power of the Sea God in the ocean.
Among all the Limit Douluo of the past tens of thousands of years, their strength may not be the strongest, but it is definitely among the top.
Shaking her head, Qing Mu snapped out of her reverie.
If I gain it, I am fortunate; if I lose it, it is my fate. His current situation is already far superior to that of other Soul Masters. Even if it is not perfect, it doesn't matter. After all, where in this world can there be so many perfect people?
"Da na, da na~"
Ivysaur nodded. A 100,000-year spirit ring is already quite good, and when a 100,000-year spirit beast dies, it will inevitably drop a spirit bone, at which time its strength will increase significantly.
Moreover, even if they absorb the seventh soul ring, they will only be at the Soul Saint level, and they will still have two soul ring slots left. They can find better soul rings later.
Ivysaur was even looking forward to seeing who would be their match after he and Qingmu broke through level 90 and absorbed their ninth spirit ring.
Without lingering, Qingmu and Ivysaur rode the Millennium Snow Wolf into the far north, a forbidden zone for humans.
The far north truly lives up to its reputation as a forbidden zone for humankind; the further Qing Mu and the others ventured in, the colder the temperature became.
The white mist that Qing Mu released turned into ice shards almost instantly, falling from the sky like snowflakes.
The saying "water freezes into ice" is no longer just an empty phrase here, but a real and common occurrence.
Qingmu even felt that the clothes she was wearing were showing signs of becoming brittle in this environment.
"This is a bit of a problem. If this continues, my coats will soon become brittle and break. Without them, even if I were exposed to this cold wind, I probably wouldn't feel very comfortable."
Seeing this, Qing Mu frowned slightly. The temperature in this far north was somewhat beyond his expectations. Although the current temperature was nothing to him, the temperature around them would only get lower and lower as they went deeper.
He remembered that the core area of this far north had temperatures approaching the extremes of ice.
More importantly, if he didn't have clothes, wouldn't he be running around naked? Although there was no one here, Qing Mu wasn't a pervert, and given a choice, he didn't want to run around naked.
"Let's take it one step at a time. I have an affinity for ice, so I'm considered a member of the ice element. Do you think I'll freeze to death?"
"If all else fails, I'll find the hide of an ice-attribute soul beast and make clothes to wear. Since these ice-attribute soul beasts live here, their fur must have good resistance to the extreme cold of the far north through natural selection," Qing Mu thought to himself.
"By the way, I wonder if the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass has any objections? For him, this place should be second only to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, right?"
Immediately, Qing Mu connected her spiritual power with the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and asked, "Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, how do you feel?"
"I feel great. The free-floating ice-elemental energy here is exceptionally rich. If I can cultivate here for a long time, my comprehension speed will be twice as fast."
The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass sounded cheerful, clearly enjoying the environment.
"Let's forget about it!"
After the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass spoke, the Fiery Apricot Beauty immediately interjected, "No matter how good it is, it can't compare to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. If you want to comprehend it, you should wait until you reach the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire."
"It's not quite the same. Although the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is the best place for us immortal herbs to grow, it is still different from such a naturally cold place."
Moreover, I can vaguely sense that there are some treasures here that would be useful to me, as well as some extremely powerful auras.
"Eight-cornered Ice Grass retorted."
"An extremely powerful aura?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Mu's eyes flashed, and she immediately used her spiritual power to ask, "Octagonal Ice Grass, where are those extremely powerful auras you mentioned? Is any of them similar to the aura of a soul beast like the Ice Silkworm?"
