Antarctic blue ice tunnel.
It is a 5-meter-high, 150-meter-long ice tunnel, a natural ice tunnel formed by the tension of the ice ridge on the ice shelf and the melting of the ice.
The blue color of the blue ice cave is mainly related to ice.
Because glaciers are compressed over millions of years, their ice layers are thicker and denser than ice formed from ordinary water. This unique texture allows glaciers to absorb colors other than blue in the spectrum.
The fewer air bubbles an ice contains, the less light is refracted and dispersed when it is exposed to light. When the light penetrates the ice layer without interference, it will appear as a particularly pure blue color.
As ice is exposed to air, it crystallizes and enters air bubbles, which affects the appearance of the blue color.
Because Antarctica is a glacial region, the conditions for the formation of blue ice tunnels are better, so you can still see them if you go to Antarctica in December.
Li Yao put on a thick polar suit, along with a hat, scarf, earmuffs, and gloves.
After setting the location on the teleportation portal, I was ready to set off.
At this moment, 6834 jumped into Li Yao's arms, strongly indicating that it wanted to go too.
After confirming that 6834 was indeed not afraid of the cold, Li Yao still dressed it in a pet onesie with a lot of ceremony, then picked up 6834 and stepped out of the [teleportation portal].
December 22, the Antarctic Circle experiences midnight sun.
Li Yao happened to arrive on such a day, but since she arrived at 10 a.m., she couldn't feel any difference.
The Antarctic glaciers are still quite spectacular.
While controlling her fire-based powers to circulate throughout her body, Li Yao flew low over the glacier on skis.
On the Antarctic glacier, Li Yao saw emperor penguins foraging for food and seals sunbathing on the ice.
There were also orcas. Li Yao was watching the seals when she suddenly heard a very ethereal and high-pitched sound. To her surprise, the sound contained the aggressiveness of a level 6 superpower, which meant it was a sonic attack.
Li Yao was alright; she was of a high level and had nothing to fear. The seal that was sunbathing nearby immediately leaped into the water with its flippers, and darted out hundreds of meters with a flick of its tail.
Li Yao had initially thought that the seal's awakened speed-type ability might not be as useful as its water-type ability, but now it seemed that the seal was using it very skillfully, and it was the fastest at running away.
Li Yao changed direction and flew towards the killer whales. From afar, she saw two killer whales using sound waves to attack schools of fish underwater, driving them together to capture them.
The last orca with level 7 superpowers used a sonic attack to knock out all the fish and shrimp, and the three orcas began to eat.
The scene, combined with the orca's enormous size, was truly spectacular.
Li Yao watched with great interest from high above.
Animals should not be disturbed while they are eating, otherwise they will be seen as stealing food and the other party will fight you to the death.
Thinking of this, Li Yao quietly retreated, about 5 kilometers away from the orca. There was a block of ice there that could conceal her.
However, even after she left, her spiritual power was still secretly watching.
I must say, orcas are quite handsome, with black and white fur and a rounded body.
The mutated orcas did not change much in size, but Li Yao's mental scan revealed that their brains had become larger.
This is clearly different from the normal orcas that Li Yao had seen in the materials.
Perhaps this means that what orcas have evolved is intelligence.
Li Yao was interested in playing with the orcas, but seeing the faint blue glow of the glaciers beneath the surrounding snow, it seemed it was time to visit the ice tunnels.
Li Yao thought that time was fleeting and if she missed it, she might not be able to see the deep blue ice anymore, so she decided to go to the ice cave first.
