He had only been climbing for about ten minutes and had already reached a height of more than three hundred meters.
It was also thanks to his increased arm strength that he could climb two or three meters at a time, which allowed him to climb so fast.
If he continues at this pace, he might be able to reach the top within an hour!
Of course, Xu Xin was not such an optimistic and naive person. He did not think that this activity would be so simple.
If he climbs any higher, he might encounter some dangerous situations, so he must recover his strength!
The cave where he is sitting now is actually the beginning of the change.
Three hundred meters below, he had never seen such a cave, or rather a big pit, before.
And above...
He leaned over and looked up again.
Even though the field of vision was limited, Xu Xin could still see that there were quite a few such caves on it.
This giant peak seems to be divided into sections from bottom to top, and the stone walls of each section are different.
If the distance from the ground to fifty meters is the first section, where the rock wall is rough and easy to climb, and the temperature is relatively high, then the distance from fifty meters to three hundred meters is the second section, where the rock is smoother and easier to slip, and communication is prohibited.
Now, after more than 300 meters, it is the third section.
I don't know what I'll experience during this period. However, the temperature here is really low.
I always feel that it is minus 40 degrees Celsius.
After resting enough, Xu Xin grabbed the rock wall and started climbing up again.
Sure enough, just as he had just expected, the surrounding environment had changed a lot.
The rock wall was no longer the slightly smooth stone, but had become rougher, making it easier for Xu Xin to hold on.
However, every time he grabbed the rock, an icy chill would pass from his palms into his body. Even the snow fox scarf could not block the cold that directly penetrated his skin and entered his body.
Xu Xin finally understood why the temperature dropped so quickly during the climb. The reason the temperature was so low here was entirely due to these rock walls! These walls were incredibly cold, actively radiating their chill, thus affecting those below!
The rock that made his hands feel cold couldn't be below minus fifty degrees Celsius!
So cool!
Fortunately, although the temperature of the rock is low, the temperature of the air is not too low.
Under the influence of the sun, the air temperature remained at around minus forty degrees Celsius, which was still within the tolerance range of the snow fox scarf.
Xu Xin exhaled a breath of white air.
He crawled into another cave.
In this environment, my hands were constantly being eroded by the cold, and the physical exertion was also enormous.
Even though he had Xing, which could slowly restore his strength, it was unable to offset this level of consumption.
The cave is surrounded by stone walls that emit a chill. Because of this, the temperature inside the cave is very low, almost reaching the limit that the snow fox scarf can withstand.
Xu Xin cleared the snow at the entrance of the cave, but he didn't dare sit down because it was too cold and his butt was freezing.
But this small cave was not high enough, only about 1.2 meters high. He had no choice but to squat in the cave and take a rest.
Fortunately, his purple-grade steel boots still performed well. Perhaps because of the thick soles, at least his feet did not feel the biting cold.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Xin took out the energy core fragment.
No, it's too cold. Warm up a little.
The surroundings were immediately illuminated by bright white light, and at the same time, the temperature began to rise.
Fifty degrees below zero, forty degrees below zero, thirty degrees below zero...
Twenty degrees above zero!
Under the influence of the energy core fragments, the surrounding temperature directly rose to normal temperature!
Xu Xin also breathed a sigh of relief.
So comfortable!
This energy core fragment can actually restore such a low temperature to normal!
However, he didn't dare to do this for a long time. Just from the light of the energy core fragments, it could be seen that this time the light, although still soft and not dazzling, was many times brighter than before.
In other words, the energy core fragments are consuming the energy within them at a very fast rate to maintain the surrounding temperature!
Xu Xin only enjoyed the normal temperature for a minute before putting away the energy core fragments.
This precious energy is not for him to enjoy. He should use it when the temperature becomes unbearable.
Just as he was about to step out of this area again, a slight sound suddenly came into his ears.
“Click…”
He suddenly stopped where he was, with his ears perked up to catch the sudden sound.
After climbing for so long, this was the first time he heard a sound from something other than himself, and he instantly became extremely nervous.
"Crack..." There was a slight sound, as if something was cracking slightly.
The sound was very close to him, probably just above his head, about five or six meters above!
Xu Xin didn't move and waited there for a long time, but the sound didn't come again.
...There was no time to waste. His hearing amplification had already detected the location where the sound came from. Since it was no longer heard, he would go and find it himself!
His hands grabbed the rock wall again, and the biting coldness passed from the palms of his hands into his body, making him shiver.
He did not stop, but exerted force with his arms and climbed up another two or three meters.
Then, he grabbed the stone wall again, and immediately grabbed a cave entrance with both hands, while also plunging into the snow.
Compared to the extremely cold rock wall, the snow is actually warmer.
He exerted more force with his arms and stepped into the cave.
