"Squeak, squeak, squeak …"
Being held in Fang Qiu's arms, the little fellow jumped onto Fang Qiu's shoulder with a smug look and put on a triumphant look.
"Yes, yes, yes, you're the best."
Fang Qiu praised with a smile.
He didn't forget the little fellow's other name: Treasure-hunting Beast!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have deliberately called Li Ji to send the little fellow over.
Now it seemed.
The little fellow had found two energy jade veins in less than half an hour after arriving at the Antarctic Continent. This kind of result was really amazing.
However.
The treasure hunt had just begun. Those areas that hadn't been explored yet were the highlight.
"Are there any more in this area?"
Walking out of the glacier, Fang Qiu asked while sending the coordinates to Qingyun.
Hearing that.
The little fellow jumped on Fang Qiu's head, stood upright, turned around and sniffed for a while, then stretched out his little short hand and pointed in the direction of the fourth area.
"Squeak."
Looking at it, it was obviously saying: Let's go!
After sending the coordinates.
Fang Qiu smiled slightly, immediately flew up, and quickly flew to the fourth area. The moment he entered the fourth area, he immediately began to explore.
The little fellow was used for treasure hunting. It couldn't sense the existence of any ancient relics or secret realm.
Therefore.
Fang Qiu had also been searching and exploring, still full of expectations in his heart.
He hoped to find an ancient relic in the Antarctic Continent.
Although Fang Qiu had explored all the first three areas, he still didn't feel anything, but he still didn't give up.
Anyway, he had to explore the entire Antarctic Continent once, so he just looked for it. If there was really an ancient relic, it would be a great thing. Even if there wasn't, it wouldn't affect him.
Walking and walking.
"Squeak!"
Suddenly, the little fellow called out.
However, compared with the previous cry, it was obviously not so sure.
Fang Qiu stopped and looked at the little fellow standing on his shoulder, only to find that the little fellow's eyes were rolling, seemingly a little uncertain.
"What's going on?"
Fang Qiu asked.
The little fellow didn't answer, but continued to twist its little head, looking like an adult who was thinking carefully.
Fang Qiu didn't disturb it, but he was very curious.
The little fellow's treasure hunting ability was not ordinary. Every time, it could very accurately feel the location of the treasure, and even know what the treasure was from a distance.
But now …
There was clearly something wrong with it.
He seemed to be very hesitant, not daring to confirm for a moment.
At ease.
Squeak!
The little fellow's eyes suddenly lit up as if she had figured something out. Without any hesitation, she directly jumped off Fang Qiu's shoulder, and then instantly turned into a silver light and rushed out.
Fang Qiu followed closely.
Very soon.
Under the guidance of the little fellow, Fang Qiu came to the coastline of the fourth region.
Because of the equal division, the nine areas divided by Fang Qiu each had a coastline.
"Could it be that there is also an energy jade mine mined by the Nirvana Organization here?"
Fang Qiu wondered.
He'd already searched this area along the coastline, but he didn't find anything. Could it be that a Nirvana Great Supreme Lord had set up a formation here as well?
Just as his heart was filled with doubts …
Fang Qiu was brought to a very high ice cliff by the little fellow.
This ice cliff was thousands of meters high, and below it was a beautiful coastline. The thousand-meter-long ice cliff was very neat.
It was as if a whole body had been split into two halves.
The other half might have melted into seawater and completely disappeared.
"Whoosh."
Just as Fang Qiu stopped, he saw the little fellow who had been rushing in front of him directly jump down without any hesitation.
Fang Qiu hurriedly followed, flying in mid-air and landing with the little fellow.
"Squeak!"
All of a sudden, the little fellow screamed.
Fang Qiu immediately reached out to catch the little fellow, and at the same time, stopped in mid-air.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak …"
The little fellow yelled as she slapped the ice surface.
Fang Qiu immediately looked in the direction that the little fellow was pointing at, but found nothing.
Because the little fellow was pointing at the middle part of the ice cliff. From Fang Qiu's point of view, the inside was very clear, without any impurities.
Under such circumstances, Fang Qiu was very sure that there was no energy jade mine in this place.
There was nothing else, at most some ice shards.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak …"
The little fellow put on a look of exasperation and continued to slap the ice surface and yell.
Fang Qiu frowned.
He took another look inside, but still didn't find anything.
This situation made Fang Qiu very confused.
Thinking of the uncertain look of the little fellow before he came here, plus the ice shards that could be seen everywhere in the glacier.
Could it be that there was something wrong with the ice shards?
What could be ice shards?
Just as Fang Qiu was thinking, the little fellow had taken the initiative to bite at the ice cliff, as if to make a hole.
After a while.
"Hmm?"
Fang Qiu suddenly trembled, a strange look emerged in his eyes, and he murmured, "Could it be a thousand-year-old ice worm?"
This was the only thing that he could think of that might be hiding in the ice cliff.
The thousand-year-old ice worm, ranked 26th on the Heaven Treasure List.
It had no fixed state, similar to a fossil, and it took a very long time to form. It was an insect that lived in the thousand-year-old ice, absorbed a lot of Qi of Heaven and Earth, and was then frozen to form.
According to the records.
After the thousand-year-old ice worm was frozen, it would still continue to absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth. The Qi of Heaven and Earth seeped into the body of the ice worm, completely turning its body into chalcedony. But it was different from the normal energy chalcedony. Because it was a living thing, the ice worm absorbed a lot of Qi of Heaven and Earth before it died, and had its own unique characteristics, so it became a kind of Heaven Treasure.
In simple words, the position of the thousand-year-old ice worm in the Heaven and Earth Treasure was similar to the position of caterpillar fungus in Chinese medicine.
He thought of something.
Fang Qiu immediately began to dig carefully.
Although it only ranked 26th on the Heaven Treasure List, the thousand-year-old ice worm was even rarer than some of the top ten Heaven Treasures. Since ancient times, there were only three recorded in the Scroll of Heaven and Earth Treasure.
It was not because it was difficult to form the thousand-year-old ice worm, but because all the Qi of Heaven and Earth that the thousand-year-old ice worm absorbed was of the ice attribute, and it was close to the thousand-year-old ice, so it would hardly emit any other kind of energy aura.
Even if someone carefully examined it, they would think it was just the Qi of Heaven and Earth stored in the thousand-year-old ice and would not care about it at all.
This was also the reason why the little guy was hesitating.
After all, the thousand-year-old ice worm sealed all the Qi of Heaven and Earth in its body, turning its flesh and cells into the storage tanks of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, locking all the Qi of Heaven and Earth it absorbed in its body, not letting a trace of it flow out.
"I didn't expect that you could find this thing."
Fang Qiu looked at the little guy in surprise.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
The little guy raised its head proudly.
Soon.
Fang Qiu dug a few meters deep.
After entering the ice cliff, he finally saw something eye-catching.
It was a worm as thick as a little finger.
The worm was coiled in a circle, looking like a very small piece of ice from the outside. If one didn't go close to it, he wouldn't be able to see it at all.
"Eh?"
"Why does this thing have roots?"
Fang Qiu was surprised.
He found that under the thousand-year-old ice worm, there was something that looked like roots.
He took a closer look.
It was a few orange hairs.
"What is this?"
Fang Qiu didn't touch the thousand-year-old ice worm, but pulled out the orange hairs to check.
But at this moment.
"Pitter-patter …"
There was a sudden sound of footsteps.
He looked in the direction of the sound.
Fang Qiu found that right in front of him, there was a giant penguin that was almost the same size as him.
It was an Emperor penguin!
Fang Qiu's eyes widened.
He had seen Emperor penguins before. Although Emperor penguins were the largest species in the penguin family, they shouldn't be this big.
"Squeak!"
The little guy squeaked, obviously trying to show off.
But the next moment.
The huge Emperor Penguin suddenly tilted its head back and poked hard at the ice with its sharp beak. The layer of ice in front of Fang Qiu instantly shattered with a crackling sound.
At this moment.
Fang Qiu found that on the other side of the ice, there was a larger tunnel, which seemed to have been dug by the Emperor penguin. There were many forks in the tunnel.
This Emperor penguin must have fed on the thousand-year-old ice worm in this ice cliff, which was why it could grow so big.
"I didn't expect that even the thousand-year-old ice worm would have a guardian beast."
Fang Qiu shook his head with a wry smile.
However, as soon as he said that, the Emperor Penguin immediately pecked at the 1,000-year Ice Worm. It was obvious that it wanted to make the first move.
"First come, first served, don't you think?"
Fang Qiu waved his right hand.
A layer of golden energy immediately wrapped around the thousand-year-old ice worm.
"Snap!"
There was a crisp sound.
The Emperor Penguin collided with the layer of golden energy surrounding the 1,000-year Ice Worm. The impact was so strong that it almost knocked the Emperor Penguin back.
"I say, you've eaten so many thousand-year-old ice worms, and it's not easy for me to get here. Give this one to me."
Fang Qiu smiled and reached for the thousand-year-old ice worm.
"Squeak!"
The Emperor penguin was angry. It squeaked at Fang Qiu, and then rushed towards Fang Qiu, ready to peck Fang Qiu's head with its sharp beak.
This time, the little guy on Fang Qiu's shoulder was not happy.
It was the one that was going to be pecked.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak …"
The little guy squeaked.
At this moment.
Fang Qiu moved and instantly disappeared in front of the Emperor penguin. When he reappeared, he was already behind the Emperor penguin.
Without any hesitation.
Fang Qiu kicked the Emperor penguin's butt.
