“I’d have to wear something thicker. After all, it’s the land of ice and snow. It’ll be bad if I catch a cold.”
Shu Ze was young and strong and had never fallen ill since coming to the Douluo continent.
However, to be safe, Shu Ze still caught a few white velvet swans in the big pond in the manor.
He pulled a few strands of feathers from their bodies and made them into soft white down jackets.
It was hot when worn.
The poor swans ran away in sorrow, naked.
‘This is so embarrassing! So embarrassing! Why does the master have to pull off the fur on that part of his body?!’
‘How are we going to see the goose in the future?!’
From then on, there were big swans with naked butts in the pond of the Leisure Manor…
Thus, Shu Ze prepared some dry food and set off.
Coincidentally, there was a new mission issued today:
[Capture three or more ice-attribute spirit beasts and bring them back to the manor to domesticate them. Upon completion, one will obtain pure spirit power and super tools.]
“Ice-attribute spirit beasts? Let’s catch a few with a slightly weaker cultivation base to avoid trouble and danger.”
It just so happened that Shu Ze was about to head north to look for extreme frost stones, and it was highly likely that he would encounter an ice-attribute spirit beast!
After two hours.
Snow fell from the sky. The world around him was covered in white while the cold air attacked Su Zhe.
Shu Ze rubbed his hands and exhaled a hot mist. “This place is a little cold.”
“It’s a good thing I made a jacket before I came. Otherwise, it would have been very uncomfortable.”
Shu Ze mumbled to himself as he walked deeper into the forest, leaving a trail of footprints on the white snow. Soon, the footprints were covered by the dancing snow.
Perhaps even Shu Ze himself did not realize that he had unknowingly arrived at the core of Thule.
Normal humans would be unable to reach this place as they would have been frozen into ice sculptures by the low temperature.
Even the title Douluo couldn’t move around freely like him.
Thule was located in the northernmost part of the Douluo continent. It was freezing and dangerous. It was also known as a forbidden zone for humans.
The closer one got to the core of Thule, the closer the temperature would be to the extreme. There might be icy and dark items like the ten-thousand-year dark ice marrow in the core.
After some time, Shu Ze arrived at a familiar place. It was a cold pond with some crystal-clear ice essence at the bottom.
It was hard to imagine that there was still running water in this world of ice and snow.
This place was called the Extreme Yin Pond.
It was where water and ice coexisted with each other.
“It’s so cold,”
Shu Ze tested the water with his index finger. If it were summer, this water would definitely be a magical cooling device, as cool as the well water in his manor.
However, in this world of ice and snow, he no longer wanted to touch it.
“Chief, bad news! That guy is here again!”
In an ice cave nearby, a few giant Icy Jade Scorpions with icy green tails and silver patterns on their bodies were shocked by a mysterious force.
Even though the familiar taming powers weren’t intentionally released, it still forced them to return to their original forms.
It could be seen that the appearance of this power had caused them to panic.
Fortunately, there was some distance between them, so they could still resist it.
Among them was an Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion with a faint gold and silver glow on its tail. It was particularly outstanding among the group of Icy Jade Scorpions.
He was the chief of the Icy Jade Scorpion clan in Thule and was known as one of the three kings of Thule. It was the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion, the Frost King.
“Your highness, we should go! He’s too strong. We can’t afford to offend him!”
“Humans, you’ve really gone too far!”
“Last time, he removed the frost seed we carefully cultivated. He actually has the audacity to return here again!”
“We must find out what he’s up to this time. I don’t believe that a human can cultivate to such a level that he can defeat the spirit beasts in Thule like us!”
A crisp voice came from the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion. He led the Icy Jade Scorpion and charged toward Su Zhe.
However, the closer they got to the core of the power, the stronger the urge to return to their bodies in their minds. Finally, they turned into a palm-sized Icy Jade Scorpion at a certain point.
“Sir, let’s just leave him be. I have a bad feeling about this.”
“No!”
“There’s a ten-thousand-year-old ice essence under the pool. What if he takes it away?”
What spirit beasts cared about the most was this kind of heavenly treasure. It could help them increase their cultivation age and lifespan and help them resist the heavenly tribulation.
“I don’t know what evil tricks he used to make us reveal our true forms, but it doesn’t matter. Even so, the spirit power we possess isn’t something ordinary spirit masters can resist.”
“Charge!”
With the command from the Frost Emperor, three to five silver-patterned Icy Jade King Scorpions crawled quickly on the ice surface and charged toward Shu Ze.
They had lived in Thule for thousands of years and knew the surrounding environment like the back of their hands. There was no way they would slip because they couldn’t hold onto the ice!
The next moment, one of the Icy Jade Scorpions started to drift on the ice. Its sharp claws pierced into the ice and left a deep mark.
The Scorpion’s mouth buzzed, communicating in the unique language to the rest of his clan.
“Brother, save me! I’m still not used to being my true self!”
“Bang!”
The Icy Jade King Scorpions fell into the pool of ultimate water.
The other Icy Jade King Scorpions had an idea. ‘Brother! Hide inside the water!’
If he pretended to fall into the water accidentally, he wouldn’t have to fight that human and court death. He might even be able to steal a few mouthfuls of the essence of ice, killing two birds with one stone!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
As such, the rest of the Icy Jade King Scorpions fell into the water one after another, leaving only the Frost Emperor behind.
“Eh?”
Obviously, Shu Ze, who was looking for stones, also noticed the situation. Looking at the crystal-clear Icy Jade King Scorpions, Shu Ze smiled.
“That’s strange. Do all scorpions need to bathe?
“And they’re diving in pairs.
“But these scorpions are quite big. They’re not quite the same as the scorpions I remember.
“The Douluo continent is truly an interesting world. There’s a great variety of species here.”
“The ice scorpions from here are so big. I wonder what they’ll taste like if I cooled them. Will they taste good?”
Shu Ze shook his head at that thought. Scorpions were one of the five venomous creatures. They had poison sacs in their bodies, which were troublesome to deal with. Besides, they had a hard shells all over their bodies, so they probably didn’t have much flesh.
Especially for scorpions in Thule, they looked like colored ice cubes. He didn’t know if it would melt into the water if thrown into the pot, so it shouldn’t be delicious.
With a single thought, a few hundred-thousand-year Icy Jade King Scorpions escaped being fried.
Frost Monarch snorted. “Hmph! What a useless guy! Are you scared off just like that?
“Humans have always been cunning. Who knows if he’s only strong in appearance but weak in reality? He’s relying on some treasure to emit such a powerful aura to scare us away!
“How could I fall for his tricks?!
“How dare you invade my ice pond?! You shall be executed!”
Step step!
The Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion’s six pairs of powerful legs grabbed onto the ice layer and charged at Shu Ze ferociously.
With a crack, it got stuck on the leather of Shu Ze’s boots.
Frost’s monarch was so painful that he started spinning on the spot.
‘F*ck! What is this made of? How is it so hard?’
It was too hard, and it couldn’t be clamped at all. It was too painful!
“Oh? There’s actually another one.”
At this moment, Shu Ze also noticed the strange behavior of the big scorpion under his feet and found it interesting.
However, he didn’t dare to grab it directly.
Scorpions were very aggressive animals!
Of course, Shu Ze didn’t think that he couldn’t beat the scorpion.
However, when it comes to fighting animals, the most important thing is to know if it is worth it.
You could beat a dog in close combat, but you would be bitten by the dog and might even get rabies. So, there was no need to fight in close combat.
The strength of human beings lies in their wisdom, weapons, and tools!
“There it is!”
Shu Ze found something similar to a birdcage in his storage bag. The gap in the cage was just smaller than the pincers and tail of the Icy Jade King Scorpions, and it could be controlled!
Shu Ze pounced at the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion with a bang. The scorpion had no time to react and was already in the cage.
Then, Shu Ze adjusted the cage’s base, forming an enclosed space and trapping the ice scorpion within.
Finally, Shu Ze smiled and observed. He couldn’t help but sigh.
“I didn’t expect scorpions to be so beautiful. They’re exquisite. What a work of nature.”
“Eh? These ice scorpions should be considered ice-type spirit beasts, right?”
Shu Ze asked about the scorpion.
“Yes, that’s right,” the system replied.
[The Icy Jade Scorpion is a mighty spirit beast that lives in the depths of the extreme north. They are a huge species and are one of the true rulers of this bitter and cold land. They possess the ultimate ice attribute and are the kings in the ice world.]
An information card appeared in Shu Ze’s mind, and he looked surprised at the Icy Jade Emperor Scorpion in the cage.
“Are we at the core of Thule now?”
Shu Ze chuckled.I didn’t expect Icy Jade King Scorpions to have the ultimate ice attribute still. You’ll be very powerful when you grow up, won’t you?
“Alright, I can’t leave you all alone. Those guys swimming in the ice pool aren’t as pretty as you, but they’re not bad. I’ll take this opportunity to complete my mission.”
He had thought that it would be difficult to find spirit beasts in Thule and that this mission would take some time. He had not expected that these Icy Jade Scorpions would come knocking on his door, which saved him some trouble.
However, the Icy Jade King Scorpions that had fallen into the water were already terrified.
“Damn, the clan leader of the ice monarch clan was captured?”
“Then wouldn’t the rest of us be like a pack of Dragons without a leader?”
“No! I have to hurry back to the clan. An evil person has captured the clan leader. I will now be in charge of the rest of the clan!”
“You coward! You’re clearly afraid of death!”
“If you’re not afraid, you’ll rush up to save the clan leader!”
“Huh? Do you want to fight him? Didn’t you see that with the clan leader’s three hundred thousand years of cultivation base, he couldn’t even fight back against that human? We only have a cultivation base of a hundred thousand years. If we rush up like this, the result will only worsen!”
“F*ck, he’s coming! Quickly run!”
“F*ck, I think I’m going to be caught?!”
“He’s so fast!”
This man looked like he was only taking a stroll in his courtyard. How did he appear in front of me in the next second?!
Just as the Icy Jade King Scorpions were swimming in the pool, a figure reached the shore ahead of time and fished them up with a net.
“This should be enough. I’ll rest for a bit before looking for the Arctic Stone.”
Shu Ze then began to stroll around the area.
These extreme frost stones were nurtured from the ultimate ice and ultimate water.
Then, Shu Ze found the Icy Jade King Scorpions next to the essence of ice at the bottom of the pool.
“Looks like I have to get wet this time,” Shu Ze said helplessly.
Shu Ze took off his down jacket and took off the clothes underneath. His eight-pack golden abs glowed in the snow, and he plunged into the snow.
