Not to mention anything else, just the constant drop in temperature and the increasing concentration of the poison in the mist was highly lethal. To maintain one's body temperature in such low temperatures, one must constantly expend their spirit powers. But no one could be certain how long it would take for their spirit powers to be depleted.
Qiao Chu had tried to drink from the water pouch he carried with him along the way and as he had kept it close to his body, it had not been frozen by the low temperatures. But when one or two drops of water slipped out from the corner of his mouth, they immediately froze the moment they left the range of his spirit powers. When they fell to the ground, they had already turned into beads of ice.
The concentration of the poison in the mist was also extremely torturous. Spirit powers could defend against the cold, but it could not filter out the poison in the air. When it was inhaled into the lungs and into the bloodstream, the poison would take a person's life.
If this was not handled properly, it would become the biggest problem.
But …..
This most lethal problem, was the easiest problem to solve before Jun Wu Xie's eyes. She did not have many other things, but she had many different kinds of antidote elixirs. Her Cosmos Sack slowly filled up with a box, enough to last them a year and a half.
Under such a harsh environment, Little Jue had obediently followed behind the others. Although he was the youngest among them and his consciousness was not very clear, but he knew that he must not add to Jun Xie's troubles and as long as it was something Jun Xie instructed him to do, he would always be more obedient than anyone else.
But there was one thing that was very peculiar.
Little Jue's body did not give off any spirit power but he was able to maintain a sufficient amount of body temperature. When Jun Wu Xie occasionally went to touch his little hands, she would find that those little claws were scorching hot, just like a little furnace.
Among the group of people, the only ones who were able to control their bodies and ask questions without using their spirit powers, besides Jun Wu Yao, were only Ye Mei and Ye Sha. Little Jue was a special case.
What was more interesting was …..
After Jun Wu Xie had just finished handing out the elixirs, she noticed a very interesting scene.
After Little Jue received the elixir from Jun Xie, he pretended to be very obedient as he cupped the elixir with both hands and stuffed it into his mouth. He then clenched his other hand into a fist and stuffed it into his pocket, which caused Jun Xie who was still analyzing the situation to fall into deep thought for a moment.
"Take out what's in your pocket." Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes, looking at the highly obedient Little Jue.
Little Jue blinked his eyes and shrank his neck into his shoulders as he looked at Jun Wu Xie and took a small step back.
Jun Wu Xie raised an eyebrow. This little fella really did have a secret!
"Dumb Qiao."
"Alright!" Qiao Chu was quick witted and he immediately scooped Little Jue up from behind. Little Jue's mouth opened wide as if he wanted to say something, but he was unable to express himself clearly.
In the end, Jun Wu Xie walked over and found a handful of elixirs in Little Jue's pockets …..
He was right.
One …
Looking at the quantity, from the time Jun Xie and his companions had descended the Heaven's End Cliff till now, the little brat had not missed a single elixir that Jun Xie had distributed to him and kept it all into his own pocket, not eating a single one!
If it had been Qiao Chu and the others, they would have been defeated halfway through the journey.
After Jun Wu Xie ascertained that there was nothing wrong with Little Jue's body, she heaved a sigh of relief. Under Little Jue's teary eyes, she confiscated all the elixirs that he had hidden away.
"Ah!!" Little Jue looked at Jun Xie in despair, his face filled with grief and despair.
When Qiao Chu put him down, the little one silently squatted on the ground wiping his tears.
