Chapter 292 Ice



"Aww!" We'll leave after the floodwaters recede.

Tiger Dad was helpless against the raging flood and could only set up camp on the spot. In his memory, floods usually take several days to recede, but the flood in front of him was so terrible that he didn't know how long it would take.

Of course, Tiger Dad and Mountain Wind can fly, but unfortunately, this ice field is too big and has no end in sight. After getting on the ice mountain, the only protruding object they can see is the ice mountain under their feet, while the area around the ice mountain has been submerged by endless floods.

The once endless ice field has turned into a boundless torrent.

The iceberg instantly became an isolated island, the only foothold and the only safe zone in the boundless torrent.

Having just arrived in this place, Tiger Dad didn't know what was around him or how large the area covered by this flood was. These unknown factors were the reasons why he couldn't leave easily.

The mountain breeze, pushed into the ice cave, nodded obediently. After Tiger Dad lay down at the cave entrance, the boy, Ma Liu, took out a moisture-proof mat and made himself a simple 'bed'. Then, he wrapped himself in thick animal skin and rested against Tiger Dad's thick tiger fur.

Tiger Dad is simply a lifesaver! The cold wind outside can't affect Tiger Dad at all; he's warm and cozy like a furnace.

Seeing Tiger Dad squint his eyes, Amo's desire to cooperate vanished completely. He could tell that Tiger Dad had absolutely no interest in them.

On the indigenous side, someone noticed the tiger father's digging speed and was pointing at the big tiger, his surprise clearly evident.

Although the ice hole dug by Tiger Dad was now hidden by his massive body, it was still clearly visible to those who had seen it before.

Amer tried digging into the ice wall with his spear, and his brows furrowed instantly. He could dig, but...

Looking at the ice block, about half the size of a fist, on the tip of the gun, Amo was speechless.

He used spiritual power in that attack, intending to quickly dig a hole to shelter from the wind, but unexpectedly... that's it?

Ah Xu was stunned to see that the magical weapon in his hand, which had always been invincible, could only penetrate 5 centimeters before it could no longer go in.

The two exchanged a glance and realized that the ice on this iceberg was not the kind they had imagined. No wonder the indigenous people seemed to be digging so slowly.

Afu looked at Tiger Dad, then turned back thoughtfully, snorted disdainfully at Amo and Axu, and then proudly raised its paw.

With a crisp "sizzle," the dog paddle yielded a thin, palm-sized block of ice.

Afu was stunned. He flipped his paw over to look at it, and then, still not believing it, scratched it twice more. Two pieces of ice, slightly thicker than the first, fell to the ground.

At that moment, Afu's dog ears drooped down instantly.

Woof woof, even after all this evolution, dogs are still inferior to tigers?

Ah Xu and Ah Mo picked up their respective weapons and silently continued digging. It seems that the difference is not between species, but between strength!

Although the cave was difficult to dig, Amo and his companions had to dig it anyway. Otherwise, the cold wind on the mountaintop would freeze them to death in just one night, let alone a few days.

Superpowered individuals can use spiritual energy to form shields for defense, but their reserves of spiritual energy are limited, and the current environment is not absolutely safe, so they naturally cannot squander it.

The indigenous people also witnessed Afu's failure, and instantly they turned their attention back to the dozing tiger.

Afu's level is not much different from Tiger Dad's, and their strength is not much different either. Although the sharpness of the dog's claws is not much different, it is not a big problem for digging. However, Tiger Dad is far superior to Afu in terms of spiritual energy reserves and application. This is the main reason why Tiger Dad can dig the cave quickly while Afu cannot.

Tiger Dad judged the hardness of the ice wall with his first dig, and from the second paw onwards, he used his spiritual power to dig with all his might, which is why he was able to achieve such a fast efficiency.

Such output naturally consumes a lot of spiritual energy, but because the area being excavated is not large, and there are spiritual stones in the space to replenish it, Tiger Dad can still afford to consume it.

Afu's full-force claw attack can achieve a similar effect to Tiger Dad's single claw strike, but Afu cannot afford to expend the energy required.

Not to mention that the area they need to excavate is at least three times larger, just considering the spiritual energy reserves, Afu would run out of spiritual energy after digging only 5 square meters, and Amo and the others also don't have any spatial spiritual energy. Their only replenishment supplies are in their three backpacks, which is simply not enough.

Shanfeng originally only carried a backpack. Although the chipmunk had given him a spatial artifact, Shanfeng had never used it while at the human base.

He is still using the supplies that Lin Qian temporarily gave him, which were prepared in advance for entering the Nine Gates, and the supplies inside are sufficient.

Not to mention spirit stones, spirit liquids, food, and water, they even provided several pieces of animal hides, showing that the preparations at Spirit Beast Mountain were truly thorough.

To be honest, Amo's team probably had the fewest supplies.

Didn't you see that the indigenous people over there have already unloaded their heavy bags and become thinner? It turns out that their previous bulky figures were supported by their luggage.

After sizing each other up for a while, Amer had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on. These indigenous people probably already knew the flood was coming back, which was why they had prepared supplies and come to this iceberg.

This actually relieved Amo; the other side had come prepared, so this place was no longer a dead end.

On the locals' side, amidst the clanging and banging, several people kept an eye on Tiger Dad and Amo, clearly very wary of these unfamiliar creatures.
