The starship plummeted downwards like a headless bird.
boom!
The starship crashed into a snow-covered mountain range, exploding in a burst of sparks before instantly vanishing.
Xie Feng and the others also landed in this Wind and Snow Mountain.
Looking around, all I could see was a vast expanse of white snow.
Little Nine flapped its wings and returned to its original size.
Gu Yu blinked, looked around, and asked, "Big sister, where is this?"
A Ling didn't care about his impolite address at all. She looked around, shrugged, and said, "I don't know."
The Sixth Universe is vast and sparsely populated, with many unexplored places, and even hidden dangers.
Xie Feng sensed the energy here and said, "The energy here has a very strange contradiction. On one hand, it's very powerful, but this powerful energy is full of impurities, and very little of it can be absorbed. What a pity."
A Ling narrowed her eyes and said calmly, "Impurities can be removed, but the workload is too great, and few people are willing to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of years to remove them."
Xie Feng sighed again, "However, compared to the Fifth Universe, the abilities here have already made a qualitative leap. It's hard to imagine how astonishing the energy of the Tenth Universe must be. Sister Ling, don't you think so?"
A Ling's eyes flickered, but she didn't answer.
Xie Feng smiled slightly.
He had a premonition that A Ling was from the Tenth Universe, or at the very least, from the Ninth Universe.
As the person closest to the Tenth Universe, he naturally wanted to know more about that desolate land.
He tried to trick A Ling, but the latter was very clever and didn't fall for it or expose him.
While the two were talking, Little Nine had already caught several snow rabbits in the snow.
Yao Cang had also finished lighting the fire.
Gu Yu sat down on the ground, picked up a few branches, strung the rabbits together one by one, and roasted them over the fire.
The rabbit meat was quickly roasted until it sizzled and dripped with oil.
"It smells so good, Master! Come and eat! The snow is so thick, it's so soft and cozy sitting on it, not cold at all!"
Gu Yu said happily as he twirled the tree branch.
Yao Cang scratched his head. Why didn't he feel warm in the snow? He quietly moved to a spot with thicker snow.
The rabbit was roasted, Gu Yu tore off a fat, dripping rabbit leg and handed it to Yao Cang, "Kid, you try it first. Ouch, who grabbed my butt?!"
Gu Yu screamed and looked down to see a withered arm groping his delicate buttocks!
The Gu Yu was so frightened that it jumped ten meters away.
Everyone was startled and looked over. The spot where Gu Yu had been sitting slowly rose up, and chunks of snow fell down in a soft rustling sound.
A person slowly sat up!
There was a noticeable dent on his stomach.
It turned out that the person was covered by heavy snow and blended into the snow, Gu Yu happened to be sitting on his stomach.
This was a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes. His face was blue from the cold, and his beard was covered in snow, which had also frozen into a clump.
"I'm so hungry..."
As the man spoke, he saw the rabbit meat roasting in front of him, and with all his might, he rushed to the fire. Ignoring the danger of his sleeves getting on fire, he grabbed the rabbit and began to eat it viciously.
"How dare you touch other people's things like that! You..." Yao Cang, simple-minded as he was, immediately stepped forward to reprimand the man for his rudeness.
" Little Cang, and Gu Yu, pull him out."
Xie Feng spoke up.
The two men pulled the middle-aged man out of the fire.
Little Nine, being kind, extinguished the raging flames on the man's body with a pee.
The middle-aged man ate three plump roasted rabbits in one go, his mouth dripping with oil, and his complexion gradually returned to normal.
He casually wiped his mouth with his sleeve, let out a burp, and took a breath before saying, "Sorry, I was just too hungry, tired, and sleepy. These rabbits..."
As he spoke, he took out a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to the Gu Yu closest to him.
This was his last bit of money.
Gu Yu glanced at Xie Feng, Xie Feng said, "I'm not short of money. Everyone encounters difficulties when traveling. A few rabbits aren't worth much."
Gu Yu returned the silver coins.
The man insisted, "You are my saviors, and I have no way to repay you! You won't even accept a small coin; aren't you putting me in a difficult position?"
Xie Feng accepted it.
The man introduced himself as Qi Zhen, from a remote place, the head of the Qi Lineage family. He was on his way to Lingnan City to participate in a competition, but was chased by his enemies on the way. After struggling to shake them off, he encountered heavy snow blocking the mountain pass. Exhausted, he collapsed in the snow.
"Thank you all for saving my life! May I ask your names and where you are going?"
Qi Zhen asked politely, "When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; this saying is absolutely true."
Gu Yu said, "This is my master, Xie Feng. We are going to..."
Xie Feng interrupted him, laughing, "I'm just traveling and learning with my disciples, taking a casual stroll. Is there anything special about Lingnan City, which Brother Qi is going to?"
Qi Zhen's eyes dimmed, and he sighed, "As I said before, I come from the Qi Lineage in a remote small town. Half a month ago, our Qi Lineage had a conflict with the Lin Lineage and Ye Lineage over resources. The Lin and Ye families joined forces to destroy us, forcing us to leave and live a nomadic life."
"Just then, I heard that Soul Battle was being held in Lingnan City, with the victor being granted land! In order to revive my Lineage and find a way out for Lineage future, I must go to Lingnan City to participate in this Soul Battle!"
Qi Zhen clenched his fists!
Xie Feng asked, "What does 'the victor receives land' mean?"
" Lingnan City is unclaimed land in the northern part of the Sixth Universe, but strictly speaking, it is still under the jurisdiction of the Northern Spirit Emperor. The Northern Spirit Emperor is good at recognizing and employing talent, and he is a very kind person. He often rewards those he considers brave with land, and this Soul Battle is one of his methods for selecting strong individuals."
Hearing him say that, Xie Feng was somewhat tempted.
He and A Ling exchanged a glance.
No Man's Land!
This is like a pillow delivered just when you're about to fall asleep!
They came to Sixth Universe to find a place to live!
Although the Sixth Universe is vast, A Ling also said that it is fraught with danger, and rashly searching for it could easily lead to unforeseen consequences.
It's better to acquire land honestly and fairly, based on one's own abilities!
Qi Zhen added that Lingnan City was a land area of nearly 90 million li. Xie Feng thought to himself, "Such a place is enough for the Demon-Burying Clan to get here!"
Gu Yu asked curiously, "You just mentioned the Northern Spirit Emperor, who is he?"
"This world is divided into four directions: east, south, west, and north, each ruled by a Supreme. We are currently in the north, which is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Spirit Emperor."
"And what about the remaining three?"
"Besides the Northern Spirit Emperor, there are also the Western Illusion Emperor, the Eastern Star Emperor, and the Southern Nether Emperor! However, due to my limited status and position, I cannot tell you more information. Furthermore, they only govern half of the Sixth Universe; there are even wider realms beyond that, but those are Non-Self knowledge and reach."
Qi Zhen said.
