Chapter 226 Perfect Ice and Spring

Chapter 226 Zhenbing and Chun

 Seeing Du Wei disappear from the top of the snow peak, Gao Decai realized that he still seemed to have underestimated this guy's family background.

 A teleportation spell that can make a person disappear must be a level four or above.

  「为什么?」

  「没他有钱。」

  「哦~~~」

  高德又回头看了眼来时的路,然后长长吐了口气。

             名 Flora.”

"I'm here."

"We are the only two left again."

"Flora can count."

"Then let's get ready to go."

" "How long will it take to walk?"

  "I don't know, I will know after walking through it. Now, let's go down the mountain first."

   "It will take a long time."

  "It will be faster than going up the mountain." Gao De promised.

 This is indeed the case.

  Climbing snow-capped mountains often requires the use of both hands and feet. In addition, eating snow on your feet consumes a lot of energy, so you can't walk too far in one day.

  But there is an easier way to go to the snowy mountains.

In Flora's wide-eyed eyes, Gothe first created a large ball of clear water, and then controlled it to condense into a streamlined, slightly curved ice plate.

  The head and tail of the ice board are slightly upward, the bottom of the board is flat, and the edges on both sides are sharp ice blades.

 Hong to the ice plate, there are two ice sticks with sharp and pointed tips.

 【Water Making Technique】+【Water Manipulation】.

The combination of two simple tricks allowed Gothe to create a simple ice skateboard and corresponding ice ski poles.

 Gothe patted the pocket on his chest and motioned for Flora to come in.

  Flora was also unambiguous and flew over decisively.

  "Hold on tight," he said.

Then Gothe stepped onto the ice board, with a slight thought in his mind, he used [Water Manipulation] to control the ice board to be tightly connected to his boots.

  He looked down, and saw the everlasting white snow of Dandong Snow Peak covering every inch of rocks and gaps.

 The sun shines on the crystal clear snow, reflecting bursts of glare.

 Gaode took a deep breath of cold and thin air, letting the cold breath fill his chest.

 Then, Gaode suddenly kicked off the ground, jumped up, and jumped from the top platform into the snow slope.

 With his movements, the ice plate seemed to be given life, flying lightly across the snowy slopes, leaving a distinct track on the snow.

The snowflakes on the trajectory were agitated by the power of the ice plate and flew up one after another, forming clouds of gorgeous snowflake rain, but they were all left behind by Gothe.

 The speed increased in an instant, and the sound of the whistling wind was heard in the ears, mixed with the stinging sensation caused by the snow particles hitting the face.

 But Gothe didn't care and was completely immersed in this exciting feeling.

 The undeveloped Dandong Snow Peak has no snow trails in the traditional sense. Sometimes they are wide and gentle, sometimes narrow and steep, full of obstacles and sharp turns, all of which test Gaode's skills.

 Gaode tilted his body slightly and used the ice pole to adjust the direction and speed. He made smooth left and right turns. The moment the tip of the ice pole came into contact with the snow, snowflakes splashed.

Every turn he made was precise and every leap landed smoothly, showing an amazing sense of balance and control.

 His experience of studying at Peking University in his previous life gave him the opportunity to be exposed to the sport of skiing, and he had a certain foundation.

 But at this moment, his behavior is closer to extreme sports than simple skiing.

  The reason why he can control it is due to the precise perception and control of the body brought about by the skyrocketing mental power after rising to the ring.

  The surrounding scenery becomes blurry as it moves at high speed.

 "Mage, you can also fly!"

 "This is not called flying, this is called skiing!"

 The voices of Gothe and Flora were faint among the continuously splashing snowflakes.

In the north, the vast expanse of permafrost tundra is like a silver-white tapestry, quietly and solemnly laid out under the sky.

 White is the main tone of this area.

 The snow in the north has never melted at any time of the month.

  The melody of the changing seasons has lost its original rhythm here.

 Time seems to be frozen by ice and snow.

 The eternal ice and snow have given the land here the name "permanently frozen".

 In the middle of the northern border, Gushuangkou.

 This was once the ancient holy land of the Ice tribe.

 It's just that it was abandoned for some reason a long time ago and became a forgotten ruin, buried in history.

It was not until recent years that this abandoned ancient ruins came to light again because of the new war mother of the Zhenbing tribe.

  At the center of Gushuangkou is a raised rocky land.

 On this rocky land, the sanctuary of Boreas once stood.

  The Sanctuary of Boreas was a place of pilgrimage for the Ice tribe in ancient times and the source of the Ice tribe’s culture and belief.

 Just with the decline of Gushuangkou, the Sanctuary of Boreas was not spared, and together with it, it fell silent in the long river of time.

 But now, with the rediscovery of Gushuangkou, the Sanctuary of Boreas has been awakened again.

The Ice Tribe, in ancient times, was one of the four major branches of the human race. It was as famous as the Wolf Tribe, the Dragon Tribe and the Sun Tribe. It was an important origin of the mage civilization and prospered for a while.

 Later, with the rise of the mage civilization, the power of these four-generation tribes whose bloodline can awaken their own magic also weakened.

 As of now, dragonborn are as big as dragons and are almost extinct.

 Iceborn and wolfborn live in the isolated northern border. They seem to have been gradually eliminated by human civilization and have become synonymous with backwardness and aborigines.

 In fact, the Iceborn tribe is also following the old path of the Dragonborn tribe.

  Their bloodline power is becoming increasingly thinner, as if they have been cursed.

In the past, the Iceborn tribe could give birth to seventh- or even eighth-level mages based on the power of their bloodline alone. But now, among the dozens of Iceborn tribes in the North, there is not even a fifth-level wizard to be seen.

 As the former owner of this permafrost tundra, he is gradually being eliminated by this land.

  If no changes occur, the Iceborn tribe may be buried by the snow in the north in a few thousand years.

 At this moment, the fire was blazing above the snow-covered sanctuary of Boreas.

 The wind and snow kept blowing and howling, but they could not extinguish the burning torch.

  Zhenbing Tribe, the most powerful of the ice tribes in the north.

  Now the most powerful hunters in the entire Zhenbing tribe are gathered on this small rocky land.

 In ancient times, when the bloodline power of the Iceborn tribe had just begun to degrade, the war mothers and high priests of the three major Iceborn tribes used various methods but could not find the root cause or solution.

 Finally, Oretia, the war mother of the Zhenbing Tribe at that time, held the most grand ritual magic in the history of the Ice Tribe in the Sanctuary of Boreas.

 In that ritual magic, Oretia saw the subsequent long-term decline of the Iceborn tribe, as well as the hope of recovery.

   "Awaken the sleepy earth!"

   "Oh, north wind!"

   "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"

   This is a small hymn left by Oretia after the ritual magic, and it has been passed down among all the Iceborn tribes in the north for thousands of years.

It is said that this hymn indicates the hope of the Iceborn tribe's recovery.

 In the cold wind and icy snow that even the Iceborn could not endure, the weather-beaten hunters of the Zhenbing Tribe took off their animal skins and clothes, leaving their arms and chests bare.

  Everyone knelt down on one knee.

 On the rocky ground, there were tens of thousands of Iceborn, but not one of them made a sound.

 It was so quiet that only the whistling of the biting cold wind and the sound of burning flames and oil could be heard.

 The huge brazier lit up a lively fire.

  The heart of flame stretches high into the air.

 The brazier was completely lit.

  A new ritual is beginning.

 The people of the Zhenbing tribe gathered here did not look at the flames, but looked up at the high platform in the center.

 On that high platform, stood a woman.

  She has long flowing silver hair, as pure and flawless silver as the first snow in winter, hanging down her back.

 Her face is beautiful and refined, her eyes are blue and deep, with a coldness that seems to be able to see into people's hearts.

 His skin is fair, even against the backdrop of ice and snow, which makes him look even more otherworldly.

 At her back, she carried a huge ice bow as tall as a man.

 The ice bow is crystal clear and exudes a faint cold air.

 The woman let her eyes scan everyone.

  This is the largest gathering of hunters among the tribe.

  She knew that they were all here to see her.

  She is the new war mother of the Zhenbing tribe and the youngest war mother in history.

  The controller of [Blizzard], the awakener of the Perfect Ice Spell, the daughter of Boreas, the last pure-blooded Iceborn in the contemporary era, the birthplace of ice and snow, and the savior of the Perfect Ice Tribe.

  She is Sunaifa Boreas.

 Sunaifa took off his ice bow from his back and raised it high.

 This is the ice magic weapon [Blizzard] made by Zhen Bing. It was the weapon of Boreas himself in ancient times.

  It has disappeared into history like the ancient frost land.

 Until Sunaifa found [Blizzard] and got [Blizzard]'s approval.

 The Zhenbing tribe, which was already facing disintegration, all surrendered in front of Boreas's weapons.

  The piercing extreme cold of Zhenbing froze Sunaifa's whole body.

 Even though she has ice blood flowing in her body, even though she has awakened the ancient magic of ice, she is still not immune to the stinging pain from the extreme cold of [Blizzard].

 But after living with this weapon for so long, Sunaifa has become very familiar with this feeling, instead of having to suppress a calm expression like at the beginning.

 Even Sunaifa can no longer live without this kind of pain.

  Zhen Bing's extreme cold allows her to focus, get rid of all distracting thoughts, and allows her to grow rapidly.

Sunaifah raised his gaze from the faces of the crowd to the blazing braziers around him.

  唳~~~

  At this time, a long and passionate cry sounded from high in the sky.

 That is the unique roar of the falcon, full of the breath of power and freedom, which seems to penetrate everyone's heart.

 But no one on the field raised their heads, and their expressions didn't look strange at all.

 The next moment, a falcon fell from the sky, circled dexterously in the low sky, and finally landed on Sunaifa's shoulder.

 It was a silver-white falcon, its feathers seemed to be condensed by frost, and its sharp eagle eyes made even the most powerful hunter dare not look at it.

 That is Sunaifa's magical falcon, also obtained from the ancient frost land.

Sunaifa took a deep breath, and then drew the bowstring of [Blizzard].

 The huge ice bow was even bigger than Sunaifa's entire body, but Sunaifa seemed to have immense power and could pull the bow string to its full length without any effort.

 As the bow string tightened, a crystal clear, pure and flawless crystal arrow was born and condensed into shape under the power contained in the ice bow itself.

Sunaifah held his breath.

 The temperature on the high platform dropped sharply at this moment, and the frost air flowed all over her body along the bowstring, and then spread outward from her feet.

   Crack, click, click.

  The sound of condensation of frost sounded like a piece of music.

 Just when the frost was about to spread beyond the scope of the high platform, Sunaifa exhaled and relaxed the string.

The ice crystal arrow flew out, carrying a biting chill and an unstoppable momentum, soaring upwards, and finally exploded with a deafening high in the sky, turning into countless tiny ice crystals.

 These ice crystals re-condensed into the emblem of the Zhenbing Tribe in a very short moment.

  "The ceremony begins."

 h Sunaifa announced softly. Although his voice was soft, it penetrated the cold wind and spread throughout the venue.

  Shuashuashua!

 As her voice fell, the atmosphere on the field became more solemn.

 All the hunters of the Zhenbing Tribe seemed to have received some kind of summons, and they all took out the special daggers tied around their waists. The sound of the swishing sound was like thunder on the ground.

Taken out the cold daggers, all the hunters put the blades against the palms of their right palms, with a kind of piety and awe for the tribe, ancestors, and the power of nature on their faces.

 Then they closed their eyes and recited ancient carols silently.

 "Wake up the sleepy earth!"

 "Oh, north wind!"

 "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"

 Then, they stroked again.

  The blade of the ice blade cut through the skin, blooming into blossoming blood flowers.

 In the extreme cold, the blood was not frozen.

  Because this is the bloodline of the Iceborn.

The blood of the Iceborn fell on the rocky ground, as if attracted by some kind of magnetic field, and converged towards the central platform.

 In the center of the high platform, behind Sunaifa, little stars began to appear.

 This starlight is connected and echoed with the stars in the sky.

Sunaifa’s pupils turned white at this moment, as if he was in a trance.

  Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked at Sunaifa on the stage with breathless concentration.

 This process lasted about a minute.

 This minute, to the people on the field, seems as long as a hundred years.

 In the end, Sunaifa's white pupils returned to their original blue and depth.

  It's just that there's a touch of lingering fatigue.

  "Winter has arrived for the Iceborn tribe."

 "Spring is not far away."

 Sunaifa's voice is like a song, floating on the rocky ground.

 h "Someone is coming from the top of the mountain."

 h "He will awaken the sleepy earth."

 h "He will bring spring and life to the permafrost tundra."

 h "He will bring the iceborn to life. The children will no longer suffer from hunger."

   "With his help, Zhen Bing will be restored to glory!"

  "The North will be unified again!"

   "How do we find him?" Someone asked the most critical question.

"That person, protected by ice and snow, will be able to withstand the coldness of the deepest ice."

"That person, favored by nature, accompanied by the spirits of nature."

"That person, enlightened by the world, possesses the most original power in the world."

 h "Believe in him, welcome him, follow him."
