While Zhou Yanzhi and Xiao Yu were out, he brought his four children with him, along with Tutengteng. As soon as the four children and their young wife came out, they quickly became acquainted with their eldest and second brothers.
In the subsequent actions, the seven gourd brothers simply put the couple aside.
With Ao Kun and Jin Peng guarding them, and the teleportation talismans and arrays they possessed, there wasn't much that could harm them in this secret realm. The couple then went about their business without worry.
The spiritual herbs in the Spiritual Herb Wasteland were truly abundant. Apart from anything else, just the ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill alone were enough to fill three different pill recipes.
Because they had penetrated so deeply into the wilderness, the couple had even managed to gather a good portion of the spiritual herbs needed for the Divine Wandering Realm. Many high-ranking cultivators from the upper realms, beyond the secret realm, were envious, tears streaming from their eyes.
The Ascension Secret Realm also has seasons. Although they are said to be infrequent, and the spring, summer, autumn, and winter seasons are not distinct, the 'winter hibernation' is never vague when it wants to come. Two months after Zhou Yanzhi, Xiao Yu, and the others had been gathering spiritual herbs, the entire wasteland entered winter overnight.
Over ten meters of snow covered the wasteland overnight.
During this period, the temperature could drop to -200 to -300 degrees Celsius. Many low-level demon beasts in the wasteland froze to death and became part of the grass and fertilizer in the wasteland.
☆
"...Those times, some people in our Upper Realm spread rumors, saying that Heaven is merciful. But what a bullshit. I've read in the sect's historical records that during those winters, not only did most of the Upper Realm cultivators freeze to death, but almost all of the Savage cultivators froze to death as well. It's said that once, winter arrived right after we arrived, and more than half of the people froze to death."
“This is too horrible!”
"Isn't it scary now? We're over a thousand meters underground, and the ground above us is frozen. Given the current situation, we might have to dive down again tomorrow."
"Yes, if it weren't for Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Xiao, we might have become part of the grassland fertilizer."
Because they hid quickly, when the temperature on the grassland was over 100 degrees below zero, the large group was four or five hundred meters underground. In order to live comfortably in the following days, everyone was able to go out and get some green grass for themselves to refine and use.
Who the hell would have thought that in just one month, they were forced to dive a thousand meters underground.
"Everyone get up, everyone get up. Mr. Xiao said to move now. The ice above our heads is not far away from us." Someone shouted.
Everyone who had been chatting suddenly fell silent. In fact, when they felt the cold today, they had been thinking about moving. However, many of them did not have earth spirit roots and did not know how to escape, so they could not escape even if they wanted to.
☆
Soon, under the leadership of Xiao Yu and Zhou Yanzhi, some cultivators with earth spiritual roots followed suit, and everyone dived more than three thousand meters before stopping.
The main thing was that during the dive, Xiao Yu discovered a natural cave underground. Although he didn't know if it was dangerous, the environment in the cave was better than in the ground.
Less than ten minutes after the main group dived and left, the ice less than a hundred meters thick that had been hanging over their heads in the cave quickly caught up with them.
In just a moment, the cave that originally accommodated hundreds of people was covered with thick ice.
Zhou Yanzhi, wrapped in the power of the blazing sun, witnessed this scene and couldn't help but feel worried. According to the information they had received, if they were unlucky enough to encounter the "winter storage" of the Ascension Secret Realm, the entire world would be frozen until the end of the secret realm.
Compared to the human slaughter, the frozen secret realm of immortality is even more terrifying. It is said that someone once hid ten thousand meters underground and eventually froze to death.
He had always felt that this secret realm of immortality was a little weird.
Now it looks even weirder.
☆
"Brother, do you think this secret realm is very strange?" Xiao Yu and Zhou Yanzhi huddled together and communicated directly through notes.
Although Zhou Yanzhi didn't think this method of communication could be hidden from certain entities, he still took the paper and pen from the other party and wrote, "Yes, there are some."
"So what do we do now?"
"When the enemy comes, we will stop him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth."
"ah?"
"What do you think, babe?"
"Let's go find the spirit mine."
“???” Zhou Yanzhi hugged his child in his arms and quickly kissed his little face. He was a little unable to keep up with the other party’s rhythm.
Xiao Yu: "I'm free anyway."
Zhou Yanzhi paused and wrote carefully on the notebook: "OK!"
"What about these people?"
"We'll do our best and leave the rest to fate. We'll go out during the day and come back at night."
"That's fine. Then throw the little ones back into the gourd. That way you don't have to worry about them all the time."
"Um."
☆
"Crack, crack..." The next morning, after briefing the team leaders, Zhou Yanzhi left with Xiao Yu. They walked back a little and, about a thousand meters from the original cave, heard the sound of ice freezing. It gave Xiao Yu goosebumps.
"This is too fast!" They had previously lasted a month to cover a thousand meters, but now a thousand meters has been frozen in just one night.
"The cave probably won't be frozen over today, so let's go somewhere else." Zhou Yanzhi said, activating the power of the sun in his body, wrapping the two of them up and quickly escaping in one direction.
During this period, because he used his spiritual sense to search large areas from time to time, he encountered many spiritual medicines in some underground rock crevices.
The two had no plans to go elsewhere for the time being. Given the abundance of spiritual herbs in the Spiritual Grass Wasteland, it was impossible for there to be no mineral veins beneath the ground. However, the vastness of the Spiritual Grass Wasteland was truly breathtaking. The two searched for a week without finding any spiritual stone veins. During that same week, the people hiding in the cave had dived another five thousand meters.
