"The Severed Dao of the North Sea Continent..."
Wang Ba pondered for a moment.
He had once heard his master, Yao Wudi, mention them.
North Sea Continent lay north of Wind-Approaching Continent.
Cold currents from the Far North Plateau circled above North Sea Continent day after day.
As a result, North Sea Continent was frozen over for ten thousand miles year-round, swept by wind and snow.
Not only was its climate bitterly cold, but Spiritual Qi was also scarce.

Over the years, North Sea Continent had grown colder still. By now, even entering it was considerably dangerous for a Gold Core Cultivator.
Yet Heaven never sealed off every path.
Though North Sea Continent was bitterly cold, a warm current would return roughly once every forty-three years.
At that time, the chill over North Sea Continent would ease somewhat, and the extraordinary sight of grasslands stretching for ten thousand miles would even appear.
Along its shores, natural passages would also form as the ice thawed. Cultivators could pass through them to reach North Sea Continent and seek special spiritual treasures found nowhere else.
