This time, they only rested for fifteen minutes, but there was no other choice, this place was too dangerous and they had to pass through it. There wasn't much time to waste, fifteen minutes was enough for everyone to eat a bit of food. XinFeng had already eaten ten fist-sized pieces of braised meat, of course, this bit of meat was only enough to fill his stomach, it was far from being full.
Actually, Lei Xingfeng knew another way to replenish his energy. That was to eat sweets or just eat sweets. However, sweets were very rare in this world. It wasn't that they couldn't afford it, but that they couldn't find it. Of course, there were sweets, mostly made from honey. There were many places in this world that produced honey, and there were many varieties.
After coming out of the ice crevice, everyone resumed their journey. Everyone felt much better. Once they lacked food, they wouldn't be able to withstand the cold in this climate. They had to use their Lun Yinli or Yinli to avoid freezing. This was also the reason why they had to eat frequently.
It was unknown how Chui Zi found the right path. Along the way, Lei Xingfeng had already lost his way. If it wasn't for someone leading the way, he wouldn't have been able to find the right path. If you got lost here, even if you were a Ninth Ring Sage, you would still be dead.
This was also the reason why the natives could still live so comfortably. Otherwise, no matter how strong their bodies were and how powerful their combat strength was, they would still be wiped out by the outsiders. In the natives' territory, these natives were a living map. The outsiders could not leave them at all.
After another round of running, even though the outside world was so cold, everyone was sweating slightly.
Finally, Chui Zi shouted happily, "Haha, we're almost out … Ai, I almost got lost …" Hearing this, everyone's hair stood on end. If this guy got lost, everyone would be finished.
Everyone entered a very large ice crevice. Following this ice crevice, they quickly saw an ice wall. The most puzzling thing was that there was only an ice wall in front of them. There was no path.
Xin Zhaolun said, "Should we go from above? Or from below? "
Chui Zi said, "We can't go from above. The snow is too heavy. It's too hard to go up. We'll go from below."
Xin Zhaolun said, "Did you find it?"
Hammerhead and Wild Axe discussed for a bit before leading everyone down the ice wall.
After a short while, Hammerhead found a smooth ice wall. He reached out and knocked on the ice wall, then nodded and said, "It's here."
Kuang Fu said, "Let me do it."
Chui Zi nodded and retreated, saying, "Let's back off a little."
Kuang Fu untied the ropes and walked forward with his huge axe. After examining it for a moment, he suddenly swung his axe. In an instant, the huge axe emitted a faint golden brilliance. Kuang Fu roared and chopped the ice wall with his axe.
Chopping down with an axe, Wild Axe quickly retreated.
Boom!
The ice wall suddenly exploded, and a hole appeared. Kuang Fu said, "Alright, it's open! Let's go in quickly. "
Lei Xingfeng found that this ice wall was very strange. The ice wall that was split open by the giant axe was quickly closing. In a few minutes, the hole would disappear.
With Hammerhead in front, he led everyone into the hole.
This was a slanted hole. The entrance was small, but the inside was big. Because it was covered in ice, some light refracted in, so the ice cave was not dark. Lei Xingfeng was surprised to find that this ice cave seemed to be man-made. The ice on the ground was in the shape of stairs. It was a very regular ice staircase.
Lei Xingfeng asked, "Did you guys dig this?"
Hammerhead said, "Not completely."
Xin Zhaolun said, "Half natural, half repaired. This kind of cave can only be mastered by the local people. Outsiders can't find it. If you don't believe me, look at the hole. It should be closed."
Lei Xingfeng looked back. Sure enough, the hole was closed.
The temperature in the ice cave was very comfortable. After everyone entered, they all breathed a sigh of relief. In the cold climate, even with fur covering the mouth and nose, the cold air still strongly irritated the nasal cavity. They needed to breathe in and out slowly. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to adapt to the cold.
Lei Xingfeng grabbed his hat, took a deep breath, and said, "Sigh, I can finally breathe comfortably. Should we rest here?"
Xin Zhaolun laughed, "We originally planned to stay here for a while, at least for a night. Hehe, this is the first real resting place after crossing the glacier. We will know when we move forward."
This underground ice tunnel was very long. The group walked for about twenty minutes before they arrived at a spacious ice hall. Icicles hung from the ceiling, but the hall was very large. It was more than three hundred square meters. The group could see in the corner, there was a fire pit made of stone. In the fire pit, there were remnants of charcoal ashes. There were also a few pieces of discarded animal skins.
Mad Eagle laughed, "Okay, we can start the fire. I didn't expect there to be a fire pit here. Hehe, I wonder who left it behind."
Chui Zi laughed, "This was left behind by my people … this …" His eyes stared at Lei Xingfeng again.
Lei Xingfeng said, "Don't look, there will be food!"
Chui Zi and Mad Axe smiled with satisfaction.
After being cold for half a day, to be able to eat a hot meal and drink a big bowl of hot soup was definitely a super enjoyment.
This time, Lei Xingfeng didn't use charcoal. Instead, he used oil wood for the fire. Oil wood was very resistant to burning. Three large pieces of oil wood could boil a big pot of water. This was a very good fuel. With some charcoal, it was enough for heating and cooking.
Cooking and cooking had become Lei Xingfeng's specialty. It was simple, convenient, practical, easy to cook, and especially delicious. Everyone liked it.
The temperature in the ice hall was much warmer than outside. When the oil wood in the fire pit began to burn, everyone took off their fur coats.
Lei Xingfeng asked while cooking, "Where are we going tomorrow?"
Xin Zhaolun said, "We still have to go through a snow mountain … and then we will be there. Hehe, if there are no accidents, it will only take two days …"
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "Is it the mining that we talked about last time?"
Xin Zhaolun smiled bitterly and said, "I had no choice. I originally wanted to wait, but I felt that something was wrong. I always felt a little uneasy. You have to know that this material is very rare. It can only be produced in this area. If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find it next time."
Lei Xingfeng said, "You can't buy it?"
Xin Zhaolun said, "It would be great if you could buy it. Then you wouldn't have to work so hard to dig it up. This thing … is priceless to those who are useful. Those who are useless won't care at all."
Although Lei Xingfeng also tried his best to learn, he was still too young compared to these old guys who had studied for decades or even hundreds of years. There were a lot of things that he didn't know. It was normal that he didn't know the importance of this thing.
"What the hell is this thing … really … well, I don't care. If I can collect it, I will also collect some."
Lei Xingfeng muttered to himself. He was very lucky to be able to accompany high-level Perfected Masters to collect materials at such a young age. If he didn't have a master, he probably wouldn't be able to come here even if he reached Ninth Ring Sage.
Xin Zhaolun smiled and said, "Sure, as long as you go, you can collect a part of it yourself. Well, you have to give me a part of it."
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "I understand. Don't worry, Senior Brother." He was very clear about this. Even if he was the Senior Brother, he didn't have the obligation to do something for nothing.
Chuizi and Futou were both beside the pot. If it wasn't for Mad Eagle grabbing their necks, these two guys would have stuck their heads into the pot. The most unbearable thing was that these two guys kept drooling. This was the reason why Mad Eagle wanted to drag them back.
Jin Daya laughed. He hadn't said much until now. At this time, he said, "Caught them … They are all foodies. They can't eat their fill their whole lives."
Lei Xingfeng took out a pot lid and covered it. Instantly, the fragrance was reduced.
Chuizi swallowed his saliva as he watched the pot lid close. He couldn't help but say, "Let's open it and boil it. It's warmer."
Suddenly, everyone looked at him. Chuizi said angrily, "Okay, I know … Don't look at me. I'm hungry …"
Lei Xingfeng said gently, "Don't worry. It'll be ready in a while. Haha."
In the wild, especially in cold weather, eating was the most important thing. If you didn't want to die, you had to eat as much as possible. This was the native's instinct. Nothing could replace it. This was also why Chuizi and Futou were so excited when they saw the food being cooked. The two of them couldn't wait to reach out and grab the food, even if it wasn't completely cooked.
"It's ready!"
Chuizi cheered. He held a copper basin in his hand and looked at Lei Xingfeng eagerly. He was such a big and strong man, but he looked like a dog wagging its tail. His eyes were shining.
Lei Xingfeng felt a chill. He said, "Hold your basin and don't move." He held a big copper ladle in his hand and filled Chuizi's copper basin with a few spoonfuls of boiling hot chowder. He said, "Go and eat."
After everyone had a basin of chowder, the pot was empty. Lei Xingfeng continued to put in various ingredients and continued to cook another pot. The seven of them had to eat at least two pots of chowder. Otherwise, it wouldn't be enough.
Everyone ate the hard flatbread. In this kind of weather, eating boiling hot chowder was definitely a super enjoyment. Soon, their stiff bodies warmed up and small beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
Lei Xingfeng also ate like crazy. He knew very well that he had to replenish his food. Moreover, people who cultivated had a large appetite. According to his estimation, a meal was at least ten times more than what he ate in his previous life. Sometimes, it might even be more.
After they finished eating, the sky was already dark. The light that shone into the ice hall also dimmed. Relying on the fire in the fire pit, they could still see each other clearly.
Lei Xingfeng put away the big pot and added a few pieces of oil wood. When the flames rose, he set up a pot of water and sat down to cultivate.
Everyone also sat down to cultivate. However, Chuizi and Kuang Fu went to the entrance to guard. The two of them were in charge of guarding.
Lei Xingfeng only cultivated for a while and was surprised to find that something was wrong. The effect of cultivating here was even better than cultivating in Hanya Castle. It was almost close to the effect of cultivating near the thunderstorm area. This made him bewildered. After trying a few times, the result was the same. He stopped cultivating and pondered.
