Xu Xing gradually landed on the ice beneath his feet and withdrew the protective shield that had been in the open state during high-altitude flight.
Suddenly, an extremely strong gust of cold wind rushed towards us.
Just like falling into an ice cave in the sweltering summer heat, every pore on Xu Xing's body could feel this cruel cold.
Although with Xu Xing's current strength, this cold weather wouldn't harm him at all, the damage from this real-world sharpening magic was still exceptionally astonishing.
Xu Xing roughly estimated that he was currently only in the outer layer of the Arctic Circle, but the actual temperature was definitely below minus seventy degrees Celsius.
This temperature also occurs during peacetime, and there are residents there as well.
However, that was during the coldest winter in extreme conditions. The Inuit, with their thick skin, would hide indoors and wait for the cold to subside.
Xu Xing had no doubt that if he rashly grabbed an ordinary person and put him here, his blood would freeze solid within two minutes, and he would freeze to death.
Even those with superpowers below level four will have their strength greatly weakened, or even be injured or killed, if they come here.
Xu Xing gazed at the vast expanse of white before him, composed himself, and took out a white fox fur coat from his spatial storage, draping it over his shoulders.
It covered most of his body.
The fur of the fox fur coat is made from the pelt of a real mutated white fox that died. It was put to good use and patched up to make a coat that looks quite stylish.
Its actual effectiveness is also top-notch.
Putting everything else aside, just the moment Xu Xing put it on, he felt much warmer, and his body temperature returned to normal.
Xu Xing, draped in a fox fur coat, swiftly skimmed across the ice, leaving a wide trail of snow behind him.
There wasn't much snow underfoot, only up to my ankles, so it didn't affect my driving.
Below that was a solid, thick ice surface. Xu Xing could hardly imagine how thick it was. Even when he tried to probe with his mental power, he could only penetrate a small part of it, and the result was still ice.
With his current strength, it would be extremely difficult for him to break through.
It seems to have formed another unique continent, just like Antarctica.
Since Xu Xing entered the Arctic Circle, he has been hesitant to act too conspicuously.
Who knows if there are other exceptionally powerful creatures in this area? Putting aside everything else, Xu Xing's "friend" seems to be within the Arctic Circle as well.
However, the Arctic Circle is too large, and whether they will run into each other is another matter. Besides, Xu Xing's main purpose is not to catch up with old friends.
This journey was extremely tedious and boring. Along the way, there was nothing but ice and snow.
Not to mention humans and zombies, there wasn't a single trace of any other creature activity to be seen.
It was as if it were a desolate, otherworldly place.
In stark contrast to the landscape in the middle of the earth, one side is vibrant with life, while the other is beautiful yet desolate.
"No!"
"Perhaps, there are still creatures living here..."
Suddenly, Xu Xing smelled a faint scent of blood on the empty ice surface.
The flavor wasn't strong, it was very thin and mild, but in this deathly quiet environment, it felt so real.
Xu Xing's senses were extremely sharp, and he locked onto the direction almost instantly.
"Right front! Should we go check it out?"
Xu Xing was conflicted.
However, curiosity prevailed over a slight doubt, and Xu Xing changed direction slightly and continued forward.
However, Xu Xing was very cautious and reinforced himself with several layers of protection.
The convenience of triggering the system at the very first moment, and even the escape route has been planned out, all to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
"Roar~"
The deep voice continued to spread around, and some of it bounced off the surrounding ice, creating an echo.
Xu Xing finally saw the source of the sound.
"So it was a mutated polar bear after all?"
Xu Xing wasn't quite sure, because he had never seen this thing before...
I didn't encounter anything like this when I came to the Arctic in my previous life.
In the distance, on the vast ice surface, a creature with pure white fur lay prone, surrounded by a massive ice skeleton.
In some places, it was even steaming, clearly indicating that the creature had just finished eating not long ago.
Even more outrageous, not far from that creature, a few drops of seawater were bubbling up from a huge, bottomless pit.
Xu Xing frowned. Even he couldn't break through the ice, so how did this thing on the other side manage to break through?
Judging from Xu Xing's analysis, the polar bear-like creature in the distance is at least 7 to 8 meters long, and its normal lying height is more than 3 meters.
Only the size of a wonton can compare to it.
Those thick bear paws were as huge as the woks used by the cafeteria ladies.
His bloated belly clearly indicated that he had eaten quite a lot this time.
They were dozing off on the ice.
The white airflow that continuously sprayed from the nasal cavity clung to the surroundings, then froze into small ice crystals and fell to the ground.
Its body is covered in layers of white down, no wonder it can adapt to the environment here.
The next moment, the mutated polar bear suddenly opened its eyes, its large, bell-like eyes staring intently at Xu Xing, radiating a terrifying aura.
The sparse snowfall around us seemed to freeze for a moment, and even the temperature in the air seemed to drop a few degrees.
Xu Xing wrapped his fox fur coat tighter around himself: "Also at the peak of level six?"
He found it hard to believe that such a creature could be cultivated in a desolate, barren place where weeds grow and birds don't even poop!
