GBP Chapter 360 The Polar Regions
Chapter 360 The Polar Regions
As soon as he got his hands on it, Cheng Jiu sensed something was wrong. The velvet heart rope in his hand fell with a "thud," and ashes rained down on him.
Cheng Jiu was stunned. "Ah, is it really that brittle?"
Seemingly sensing the commotion above, a blue, celestial-like eye peered out from the opening above the ice cave.
Vertical pupils resemble a snake, yet it is not a snake!
He stared straight at her, as if trying to confirm something!
With eyes this big, what kind of monster is this?!
Cheng Jiu's heart was pounding, and a sense of crisis kept exploding in his mind!
If it weren't for those eyes, she wouldn't have sensed the other person's presence at all!
As I looked away, a huge, furry paw reached in from above!
Ice cubes fell with a soft patter, and Cheng Jiu tried his best to dodge them.
Fortunately, the ice cave was very deep, and even with the giant beast stretching out its claws with all its might, it was difficult to hook Cheng Jiu!
But the claws, thicker than a person, still terrified Cheng Jiu!
"Holy crap!"
A very light and soft voice came from above.
Cheng Jiu was stunned. What was that sound?
Could it be that big guy up there making the noise?
Cheng Jiu couldn't believe that such a big thing could make such a confusing sound!
If she hadn't been facing this giant beast directly, she probably would have thought the sound was coming from some cute creature!
The ground began to shake violently, and the ice cave kept making cracking sounds. Cheng Jiu tried his best to maintain his balance, but he was still swayed from side to side by the violent tremors.
Just like the tiny figures inside a crystal chandelier, they are completely powerless against external forces!
Squeezing sounds, collision sounds.
A huge head slowly emerged from the cave entrance, its long, snake-like tongue flicking downwards!
Cheng Jiu was completely powerless to resist as the tongue rolled into his mouth!
A sticky, warm sensation came from all directions. It didn't smell bad, but Cheng Jiu felt like throwing up. Oh no!
Cheng Jiu struggled to cling to the warm tongue, trying not to be swallowed into that abyss of gaping maw.
What exactly is this thing?!
Cheng Jiu felt like he was about to die!
On her deathbed, she felt a rare sense of sorrow.
The campaign failed to achieve its goal, and it was all gone by the second day!
Sorry, Master!
We'll meet in the underworld on our very first commission!
I'm sorry, Senior Sister Ying and Senior Brother Wen!
Take good care of yourselves!
Cheng Jiu was extremely grateful at this moment. Fortunately, this was in the Xuan Tian Continent, and she still had a chance to start over.
If this happened on another continent, in another world, then death would be truly certain!
Of course, this doesn't mean that Cheng Jiu has given up on his fate!
The beast's mouth was very warm, and the Heavenly Wood Sword, which had been frozen, now emitted a sharp spiritual light and seemed ready to move!
Even if it means death!
Before she dies, she'll show this guy she's not so delicious!
Before Cheng Jiu could make a move, the tongue she was clinging to moved!
Its long tongue is very dexterous!
Hold on!
emission!
Like a shooting star, it crashed violently into the glacier!
Cheng Jiu was in excruciating pain all over his body! It felt as if his limbs, bones, and internal organs were all shattered!
She kept coughing up blood!
She has rarely suffered such severe injuries in all her years of cultivation!
Everything before my eyes was gray and gloomy!
Cheng Jiu seemed to see the Underworld Emperor beckoning to her!
Overwhelmed by pain, Cheng Jiu felt only grief and indignation!
This death was nothing like what she had imagined!
It wasn't dramatic or tragic at all!
What a pathetic death!
Cheng Jiu felt his life force constantly slipping away, and thought to himself!
The little cloud beast and the little black dragon were pacing anxiously in the spirit pouch!
But Cheng Jiu had already locked the spirit pouch tightly, so they couldn't get out at all!
"Ding! Ding!"
This human looks like he's about to die!
The behemoth's blue, celestial-like eyes showed a hint of panic, as if it were at a loss for what to do!
It looks like it's gotten into trouble!
I played this game with my owner before and nothing happened!
Are humans outside particularly fragile?
Having realized this, the giant beast carefully pried Cheng Jiu off the mountainside.
Placed on the softest downy fur on its head, it swiftly dashes in one direction like the wind!
Cheng Jiu has completely lost consciousness due to excessive blood loss!
The life force within his body was rapidly circulating, attempting to maintain the functioning of this riddled-with-holes body!
The bloodthirsty thorns on his wrists were somewhat desperate, their long roots digging into the body of the giant beast below, drawing life force to sustain Cheng Jiu's life!
A slight pain came from the top of its head. The giant beast paused slightly, as if sensing something, but did not stop, and continued to run forward!
The giant beast stopped beside a pool of deep blue water!
This place seems to be in the eye of the storm. The spring is not large, at least compared to the giant beast. It could be blocked by just one claw!
The dappled light sprinkled on the azure spring, as if the stars of this polar region were hidden within the spring!
"Thump!" The giant beast cautiously lowered its body, not daring to breathe loudly, and the ice chunks it cut carried Cheng Jiu from the giant beast's head into the clear spring!
The Bloodthirsty Thorn also retracted its roots at the opportune moment!
It could sense that the clear spring below was very beneficial to its master!
Seeing Cheng Jiu submerged in the spring, the giant beast dared not approach and instead cautiously left the spring!
After leaving the spring, the giant beast smashed through the nearby glacier, clearing a space, and lay down to rest.
The fluffy down was quickly covered by the blowing snow.
From a distance, it looks like a glacier!
cold!
It’s so cold!
Cheng Jiu regained some consciousness and felt as if his entire body was covered in cold!
Is this what it feels like after death?
Cheng Jiu thought about her previous life, which seemed to have been lived without her ever being reincarnated!
This time I really got to experience it all!
When I opened my eyes, I saw endless starlight.
Is she going to find the Ghost Emperor now?
I'm sure the Ghost Emperor would be surprised to see her!
They might notify the master immediately!
Cheng Jiu thought about it and almost laughed.
Then I choked on the water!
???
Can ghosts choke on water?
Cheng Jiu tried to adjust his body, his mind wandering aimlessly!
This water tastes pretty sweet!
Emerging from the water, a wave of extreme cold hits you!
Cheng Jiu shivered from the cold wind!
The spiritual robes she wore had long since lost their function after that attack!
In such an environment, not having any warm clothing is practically the same as running around naked!
At this moment, the icy spring beneath them was actually the only source of warmth!
Cheng Jiu guarantees she'll never forget this awful environment, even if she dies!
Isn't this godforsaken place the Arctic?
Could she still be in the polar regions after she died?
That's terrible!
Is she about to summon a portal to the underworld?
She can't!
Help! Even if I can't be reincarnated, I can't!
Oh, right! Ghosts seem to be able to fly!
People can do it too!
Cheng Jiu emerged from the water, hovered in the air for only a few seconds, then exhausted his spiritual power and fell into the cold spring!
Those few seconds almost froze her into an ice cube!
Damn it! Why does everything have to use spiritual power? Shouldn't it be using soul power or ghost power?
Or is it!
She's not dead!
Cheng Jiu finally came to his senses and reached out to touch his face and body!
Warm!
It carries the warmth of a living person!
"Ugh!" Cheng Jiu finally felt the overwhelming cold and shivered!
It’s so cold!
After climbing out of the cold spring, Cheng Jiu took out the fire sheepskin tent he had bought in the city, changed his clothes, and swallowed a healing pill!
Only then did my frozen thoughts begin to stir again!
The feeling of being near death was definitely not her imagination!
Who saved her?
Could it be that giant beast?
To be honest, Cheng Jiu hasn't seen the whole beast yet!
It's absolutely huge; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a colossus!
"Holy crap!"
A sense of crisis returned! Cheng Jiu's body stiffened slightly!
Looking at the fire-skin tent, Cheng Jiu hesitated to go out for a moment.
The sound grew increasingly urgent, seemingly coming from outside the tent!
Wait, outside the tent?
Cheng Jiu swallowed hard and carefully lifted the tent flap.
The white light reflected from the ice field stung her eyes!
What Cheng Jiu saw was a vast, boundless ice field, reflecting a clear, icy spring!
The dense spiritual energy condensing above the ice spring is clearly extraordinary!
Cheng Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was just his imagination!
"Ding! Ding!"
The sound came from below, like a puppy barking incessantly. Cheng Jiu stiffened and lowered his head slightly!
Blue, planet-like eyes; vertical pupils like a snake; furry paw pads; obsidian-like claws!
With wings resembling wings, slightly drooping airplane ears, and a constantly swaying ball-shaped tail, it's an adorable, white creature!
But those eyes, those vertical pupils, those claws!
These are familiar and unfamiliar faces!
If Cheng Jiu encountered such an adorable creature under normal circumstances, he would really want to hug and pet this cute and cuddly beast!
But now, I'm sorry!
She's stressed!
Cheng Jiu retreated to the tent expressionlessly and without any hesitation, zipping up the tent!
"!!!? Oh my god! Oh my god!"
The little animal kept crying out, its tiny paws constantly scratching at the tent.
They've completely forgotten their own power!
Cheng Jiu and the little beast outside the torn tent stared at each other in disbelief!
Cheng Jiu fell silent.
The little animal realized it had done something wrong, and lay on the ice, covering its eyes and burying its head in the sand, but its little tail revealed its emotions.
They look both cunning and pathetic!
Cheng Jiu knew he couldn't shake it off!
As for attacking the small animals!
Putting aside the fact that Cheng Jiu isn't that ruthless, what if the giant beast behind the little beast comes to take revenge after he's attacked it?
Can't afford it!
Seeing the little beast's appearance, Cheng Jiu sighed; there was no escaping it!
Cheng Jiu packed up the discarded tents, leaving no trash behind! A good habit of young people in the new era!
Let's get another tent.
Fortunately, she had bought enough, and opened the door a crack: "Come in! But don't do anything, this place can't withstand your rough handling!"
Upon hearing this, and seeing that Cheng Jiu didn't seem angry, the little beast raised its chin and entered the tent as if it were patrolling its territory!
This tent is nothing special, of low quality, and doesn't even come with any furniture or decorations!
The only redeeming feature is that it is exceptionally warm inside, and being made of fire sheepskin, it can withstand the polar winds!
The Fiery Snow Sheep is a species unique to the polar regions, living year-round in the deepest and coldest parts of the polar regions. They are gregarious, mythical beasts.
They only appear on the outskirts of the polar regions about twenty days before the warm season each year, and they move in large groups at high speed, making them very difficult to capture!
Fire sheep tents made from it are the perfect choice for polar exploration.
High-level magical artifacts are practically useless in the polar regions; these basic equipment items are essential for venturing into the polar regions!
The little beast was clearly a native of this polar region, and seemed extremely uncomfortable staying in the fire sheep tent!
But instead of leaving, they obediently occupied a section of the area.
The snow-white down was slowly covered by ice crystals, and even the fire sheep tent did not cause the ice crystals to melt in the slightest!
Cheng Jiu didn't go out either. She knew the giant beast was still around, but she wasn't worried. The beast had saved her, so it clearly didn't intend to take her life.
The most crucial thing is that she can't beat him!
Even if she's being overly worried, if they really decided to take action, she wouldn't be able to resist.
Cheng Jiu chooses to give up!
If all else fails, Cheng Jiu glances at the little beast obediently observing the fire sheep tent.
At worst, she can use the emperor to command the feudal lords!
I've thought about the worst-case scenario, so I'm not worried about anything anymore!
Cheng Jiu took out the small pot. Having just escaped death, Cheng Jiu felt incredibly hungry!
It's not physical, it's psychological!
Let's make some soup!
Calm down!
The prepared snow-feathered chicken bobbed and swayed in the pot!
Cheng Jiu took out the jade slip to see if there was any news about Senior Sister Yingyue and Senior Brother Wen.
I wonder how they are doing after we broke up.
The polar regions have a particularly strong interference effect on the jade slips; they don't even react, let alone send messages!
Cheng Jiu can't even send out a message!
That's really something!
Cheng Jiu lay sprawled on the ground, as misfortunes never come singly, and another disaster struck.
The little beast cautiously looked at the human lying on the ground. What happened to her this time?
I hope I didn't get hurt again!
In the little beast's heart, Cheng Jiu was that extremely vulnerable human.
If you're not careful, you could die here!
The little beast cautiously licked Cheng Jiu's face, as if sensing something.
Then he was violently pushed away by a cloud: "Waaah! Waaah!"
Yun cursed the little beast with extremely foul language!
"Ding!" The little cloud beast didn't care about the little cloud beast's offense at all, after all, in its eyes the little cloud beast was still a cub.
Why would it hold a grudge against a cub? The cub meant no harm.
The little beast lay on the ground with its eyes squinted, its fluffy tail seemingly swaying slightly in sync with the little cloud beast's curses.
He looked like he was thoroughly enjoying himself!
The little cloud beast's eyes widened slightly! This shameless old man who bullied its master!
How despicable! Utterly despicable!
The little cloud beast puffed out its cheeks, its plump white body repeatedly bumping against the little beast.
The small animal did not resist, but rolled along with the force of its impact.
Roll from left to right, and from right to left!
To an uninformed person, it would look as if the little cloud beast was bullying it.
Take Cheng Jiu for example.
"Rainbow Dash, stop bullying her!"
The little cloud beast, panting heavily, looked at its blind master in disbelief: "Woo? Woo woo woo! Woo woo woo!"
The little beast lazily stretched out its paws, blinked its bright blue eyes upon hearing this, and lay down on Cheng Jiu's lap, whimpering pitifully, "Erdeng, edeng~!"
It's as if they've suffered a great injustice!
Cheng Jiu felt a little guilty and reached out to touch the little beast's fur, which was covered in ice crystals.
Hmm? It feels surprisingly good! Cheng Jiu stroked it again, defending his child: "Yunbao, it, it doesn't have any bad intentions!"
It sounds a bit like a parent spoiling their brat! Cheng Jiu felt even more guilty.
He took out two sets of apology items from his ring: spirit beast pills and spirit beast food, both of high quality, which had always been effective!
The little beast enjoyed Cheng Jiu's caresses, ate spirit beast pills and spirit beast food, and lazily stretched its body!
This human may be weak, but he has quite a few good things!
Yeah, this human is under its protection!
