The Face of the Tianshan Rift

Winter was approaching in the Tianshan, so after they arrived safely, they continued their journey. After all, if they didn't get out before the heavy snow that sealed off the mountains, it would be a long time before they could get out of the Tianshan Scar, or even if they could get out at all.

Having experienced the tranquility of the Tianshan once, Tang Miao clearly didn't want to have that experience a second time.

"Should we go with them... or...?" Nan Jue asked Tang Miao.

After all, they had been separated from Yasen and the others because of Tang Miao's intervention, but they must have witnessed Tang Miao's strength when they rushed up just now.

So even if they were to team up, it would still be feasible for them given their heavy casualties.

"Why go with them? I'll show you around; you'll definitely get much more out of it than if you go with them," Tang Miao said confidently.

"A place like the Tianshan Scar is not something you can enter just by being strong. If we get lost or something, we're all doomed..." Jiang Yu said.

To be honest, having Tang Miao lead the way made him inexplicably nervous...

Leaving aside Jiang Yu and Zhao Manyan, who both valued their lives, even Ai Jiangtu and the others felt something was amiss...

Tang Miao shrugged, then said, "Come with me, I'll show you the real Tianshan Scar!"

The group followed Tang Miao in a different direction, somewhat skeptical. Of course, Nan Jue had left some markers along the way to prevent them from getting lost...

Everyone subconsciously assumed that the Tianshan Scar was a dark, long, deep, and cold underground fissure. But that wasn't the case at all. When Tang Miao led them here, what greeted their eyes was a vast expanse of white glaciers, like a huge suit of armor covering the undulating mountains, stretching to the distant horizon. Nearby, the snow was white; high up, the rocky ridges were blue and white; further away, the deep blue mountains; and at the farthest point, the holy blue mountain shadows merged with the azure sky. Looking at this scene, it was like a magnificent, layered, and beautiful sculpture, carved by a master craftsman with a lifetime of painstaking effort!

What shocked them even more was that at different altitudes in the sky, there were patches of thin ice clouds that floated and moved slowly like gauze. The smaller ice clouds were about the size of a basketball court, while the larger ones were like a veil of ice, covering the vastness of the highest altitude airspace of the Tianshan. The ice clouds were as wide as the sky itself.

"I finally understand what it means to say rumors aren't true. This Tianshan Scar is nothing like what they described. I feel like I've stepped into a floating ice kingdom, in heaven, not underground!" Looking at the scene before him, Nan Jue suddenly had a thought: perhaps the Tianshan Scar wasn't so terrifying after all...?

"This is so beautiful! So this is the true Tianshan Scar, the real Tianshan Scar!" Jiang Shaoxu, a woman with a childlike heart, was almost unable to move after seeing the scenery.

Glaciers hang upside down, like waterfalls of clouds. Walking in some areas where the ice is thin and the clouds are dense, you may even feel that the suspended ice above your head is the ground, and that you are walking in an upside-down world.

It was very quiet. There were no roars of wild beasts or strange cries within the Tianshan Scar. Everything seemed to be asleep. Walking in this icy kingdom, even the sound of footsteps was noise. People unconsciously lowered their voices and softened their tones. Interactions between people became more friendly.

"But... how are we going to find Si Shi Ying?" Mo Fan stared blankly at the white glacier in front of him and said.

"I already told you, just wait here, someone will show you the way." Tang Miao sat there, not seeming to be in a hurry.

"Brother, don't tell me you can call people here?" Zhao Manyan said, somewhat incredulously.

"You'll find out then," Tang Miao said with a smile.

"Is it reliable?" Ai Jiangtu sat down next to Tang Miao, asking with a hint of skepticism.

"When have I ever been unreliable?" Tang Miao retorted.

The girls were all enjoying the unprecedented atmosphere of this pure land. When they heard Tang Miao's words, they all turned around and looked at him.

They said in perfect unison, "You're never reliable..."

Tang Miao was stunned...

It's one thing for the other girls to talk about themselves, but why are you Apas, a snake, getting involved?

However, he didn't refute anything, presumably because the Sky Scarred White Tiger had already sensed his presence. After all, he had already stepped into the vicinity of its territory.

It's funny, actually. Although the Sky Scarred White Tiger isn't a proper totem, it's still incredibly intelligent.

As soon as you set foot in the Tianshan and enter the glacial region, it will immediately detect you and come looking for you.

This is probably because it has something to do with the Sacred Beast White Tiger.

Everyone rested here for a full day, but the guide Tang Miao had promised didn't appear. Instead, from where Yasen and his group were in the distance, bursts of tiger roars and bursts of battle energy echoed...

The scenery was beautiful, but the fact that a whole day had been wasted like this made a few people feel a little uneasy...

"Boss Tang, you don't really want us to enjoy the scenery here for a few days and then leave, do you?" Jiang Yu asked, looking at Tang Miao who was sitting there without any urgency.

"I don't want to just set foot in Tianshan; at the very least, show us around," Ai Jiangtu said.

Come to think of it, didn't he come to Tianshan specifically to experience the Tianshan Scar?

Although they came, once they arrived, they showed no intention of moving.

This experience was clearly different from what he had imagined...

Most importantly, so far no one has made any significant gains; the income they've received is just a drop in the ocean.

This place, the Tianshan Scar, is a treasure trove!

"Don't worry, don't worry, I think it'll be here soon..."

Before Tang Miao could finish speaking, Nan Jue suddenly exclaimed, sounding slightly nervous, "Oh no, something's getting closer!"

Everyone looked at her at the same time, and Nan Jue continued, "The opponent's aura is very strong... at least at the Great Monarch Level!"

The people who were just sitting up suddenly stood up, looking warily in the direction Nan Jue was focusing on.

At that moment, the Snow Woman also ran out from the Contract Space, seemingly sensing a familiar aura?

"Roar~ Roar~ Roar~"

Just as Ai Jiangtu and the others were on guard, a magnificent creature, its entire body shimmering with a luxurious white light, suddenly stood atop a towering ice peak not far away. Its long, pure white fur flew wildly in the howling wind, and it let out low growls as it looked at Tang Miao and the others...
