The two searched the area marked on the map for most of the next hour, but still found nothing.
The reason it took so long to find it is mainly because the Jingyang Mountain Range is too dangerous, and only Spirit Masters can enter.
However, Spirit Masters are few in number, making it impossible to spend too much time drawing maps.
This results in significant deviations in many positions, even when Orange has the best map.
A small deviation on a map can actually mean a deviation of tens of millions of meters.
The best way is to have someone guide you.
Unfortunately, the Soul Engineer who discovered the Cold Spring only glanced at it briefly and marked its approximate location on the map.
This book is first published online by 𝕥𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞.
Of course, this kind of treasure hunt wouldn't involve anyone else. Otherwise, if Xuan Ziwen's guess was true, and there really were rare Ore under Cold Spring, then they might have to share them...
If they secretly find the confirmation, then the credit belongs to their third laboratory.
...
Just as Orange was about to slack off again, Bai Zhou raised an eyebrow and pointed to the distant mountain peak, Dao: "Let's go, let's go take a look over there and cross this mountain."
"Why do we have to climb mountains again? It's so tiring... Let's take a break..." Orange pouted, clearly not very willing.
"Let's go. I can sense a different kind of coldness there. Maybe we can find it there."
Bai Zhou pulled Ju Zi along and walked forward.
Although he didn't cheat using his powerful mental force, his senses weren't shut down. Even though they were separated by a mountain, Bai Zhou could still feel that faint chill.
It might just be the Cold Spring that Orange is looking for.
"Okay, I'll trust you with this once... If you still can't find it, you have to make it up to me..." Orange looked exhausted, pouted slightly, but still chose to believe Bai Zhou.
The two continued forward and soon crossed a small hill ahead.
A strange chill swept over me.
"Hiss, it feels a bit cold..." Orange shivered for no reason.
"Look over there!" Bai Zhou said, pointing to a small valley in the distance.
Orange looked up and was immediately stunned.
In the distance, there was a tiny valley, its vegetation a completely different white from the surrounding area.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that all the white material was frost and ice crystal.
In the center of the valley, wisps of white mist hung in the air. From their position, they could clearly see a pool about three meters in diameter in the center of the valley, with a spring bubbling up from it.
"This is... Cold Spring!! Xiao Bai, we really found it!!"
When Orange saw this valley, she almost cried with excitement.
"Whoosh—"
The next moment, before Bai Zhou could react, Orange had already deployed its flight spirit tool and was rushing towards Cold Spring ahead, clearly eager to complete the mission.
" Sister Ju Zi, be careful!" Bai Zhou hurriedly reminded Dao.
Although Cold Spring here is far inferior to Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, it can still be called a treasure.
Generally speaking, such places are definitely inhabited by powerful Spirit Beasts.
When Bai Zhou's mental force swept across the area, he indeed discovered a massive ice serpent radiating the aura of millennia beneath the Cold Spring.
As expected.
Just as the orange reached the top of the valley and was about to land, an unexpected event occurred.
"Splash—"
Suddenly, the Cold Spring below exploded, filling the air with a cold mist that instantly submerged the orange and obscured her vision.
Within the icy mist, dozens of Ice Crystals, imbued with terrifying killing intent, shot towards Orange.
"ah--"
Orange exclaimed in surprise and quickly activated the shield on her body that protected her spirit tool.
"Clang, clang, clang—" Countless ice crystals smashed against the orange's shield, instantly causing a large light to appear on the shield. Dao has fine cracks.
Then it shattered with a deafening roar.
It's just a basic attack, almost like a level 5 defense spirit tool that's about to crush an orange.
Such a terrifying attack clearly indicates that this Ice Serpent Bloodline is not weak. Although it is only a ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast, its combat power is comparable to that of an ordinary Spirit Beast that is twenty or thirty thousand years old.
Although Orange is usually absent-minded, she is extremely calm at certain times.
After being attacked, she instantly realized that she was no match for Dao, so she quickly released another level 5 defensive spirit tool and then used her flying spirit tool to retreat.
However, it was already too late.
"Pfft—"
The next moment, a giant ice python, over twenty meters long and over thirty centimeters in diameter, shot out, opened its massive jaws, and bit straight at the orange.
"Oh no!" Upon seeing this, Orange was immediately alarmed and tried her best to dodge, but she was completely unable to break free from the opponent's lock.
Under normal circumstances, with Orange's abilities, even if she is no match for him, she would definitely have a way to deal with it or even escape.
However, Spirit Master is most vulnerable when it is in flight. Most of Orange's spirit power is consumed by its flight spirit tool, which is not very flexible to begin with, making it impossible to dodge the ice python's attacks.
"Sister Ju Zi, be careful."
Just at the critical moment, a blue-silver tentacle broke through the orange's spirit tool defense and wrapped around her slender waist.
"Ah—" Orange was completely caught off guard and cried out in surprise as she was sent flying backward.
They narrowly escaped the ice python's attack range.
"Crack—" The giant python bit into empty air, then turned to look in the direction of the orange, and was immediately stunned.
He then became somewhat terrified...
Not far away, in the half-mouth, floated a human Spirit Master wearing blue and gold armor. Although no spirit ring appeared around him, he exuded an incomparably terrifying aura.
Not only that, but behind it were incredibly thick Blue Silver Grasses, each one larger than its own body, which was utterly outrageous…
The moment it saw its opponent, the enormous ice python had the thought of retreating.
" Sister Ju Zi, are you alright?"
Bai Zhou, dressed in a cool Blue Silver Crystal Armor, floated in mid-air, gently holding Ju Zi in his arms.
Since ancient times, deep affection cannot be retained, but tricks can win people's hearts.
Although rescuing a damsel in distress is a cliché, no one can deny that it is one of the fastest and most effective ways to increase favorability.
"Ah, Xiao Bai... How can you fly... What are those things behind you..." Orange naturally recognized Bai Zhou's voice, and while she breathed a sigh of relief, she was also quite surprised.
Especially seeing the thick, lifelike vines behind Bai Zhou, each one thicker than the ice python, was a bit outrageous...
Although Bai Zhou claims to be the Spirit Emperor …
But she's seen the Spirit Emperor before, how could this be so outrageous...?
Moreover, the opponent didn't even release their Spirit Ring.
This is even more outrageous. How can a Spirit Master fight without using the Spirit Ring and still have such power? What kind of monster is this?
"Hmph, Sister Ju Zi, how dare this little bug bully you! Let me teach it a lesson!" Bai Zhou tightly wrapped his arms around Ju Zi's slender waist, appearing indignant and extremely protective of her.
The next moment.
Bai Zhou waved his hand.
"Swish swish——"
The Blue Silver Grass behind them seemed to tilt the sky, a dark, oppressive mass enveloping the small ice python.
A terrifying force swept across an area of several thousand meters, causing birds and beasts to scatter and flee.
