Chapter 146: Arriving at the Northern Region

As the two of them chatted, more and more reefs appeared around the ship.

“That’s…”

When the two of them came back to their senses, a white coastline suddenly appeared in the distance. They couldn’t see the end of it.

Jiang Yun frowned when he saw this.

It seemed that they were about to reach the northern region.

As the ship approached, Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi gradually saw the entire coastline.

It was an endless snowfield and the winding coastline was covered by solid ice. This was the northern region, the forbidden area of the continent’s civilization. This was the most primitive place where nature was preserved, at the same time, it was also deemed the most dangerous place in this world.

This was the devil’s domain that many cultivators and businessmen dreamed of coming to.

There were so many unknown phenomena that occur here. Perhaps legendary communities of creatures were really located here. Countless precious medicinal herbs and treasures that carry an aura of death were waiting for people to explore…the northern region looked mysterious and dreamy, but at the same time, there were many hidden dangers.

“It’s beautiful. I’ve never seen an ice field like this before. So this is the northern region.” Qin Xiaoxi was very surprised.

As they got closer to the shore, Jiang Yun immediately slowed down the boat.

“This beautiful scene is only on the surface. The dangers of the northern region are hidden under this vast expanse of whiteness.” Jiang Yun frowned as he said this. He didn’t know what would happen next. The only thing he knew was that the road to obtain the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma would only be more difficult and dangerous than when they were at sea.

They were getting closer and closer.

The ice field slowly began to appear in front of the two of them. Qin Xiaoxi could see the towering mountains in the distance that seem to climb straight into the clouds. There was not a single plant in this place.

There was only this endless expanse of white snow.

Their boat gradually docked.

Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi tidied up and brought along some necessities.

Jiang Yun packed a lot of dry rations in his storage bag a few days ago. He did not know if there would be any food in the northern region that could satisfy their hunger.

Qin Xiaoxi zipped up her heavy coat and placed her Yue Maiden Sword in a strap that was firmly fixed on her back. Only the hilt of the sword was exposed. This would make it easier for her to take out her sword at any time, just in case.

The red gold ointment naturally required a small amount of hay and firewood.

Fortunately, the storage bag from the Emerald Pavilion was high quality, so it could easily fit a sack worth of firewood.

The two of them confirmed that they had everything they need.

Then, they got off the boat.

After Jiang Yun got off the boat, he quickly tied the rope that was connected to the boat to one of the protruding boulders.

Jiang Yun pulled hard to ensure that the boulder didn’t move at all. He didn’t know if it would be able to keep the boat in place. After checking around, he was still worried, so he went back to the deck and used his spiritual power to lower the anchor into the water.

The anchoring mechanism would have taken three to four people to operate, but Jiang Yun used his spiritual power, so he was able to quickly operate it.

Jiang Yun lit up all the kerosene lamps in the ship and hung a few on the tall mast. The light from the mast made it easy to find their ship on the way back. If they encountered a snowstorm, they also wouldn’t get lost in the snowstorm.

Hopefully, it would work.

Jiang Yun looked around and climbed down from the net.

“Can those kerosene lamps burn for that long?” Qin Xiaoxi asked curiously. As far as she knew, these kerosene lamps would run out of wick after burning for only one night.

“I have my ways. Did you notice that these lamps are brighter than usual?” Jiang Yun looked at the kerosene lamps hanging on the mast with pride.

Qin Xiaoxi raised her head.

Perhaps because it was daytime, Qin Xiaoxi could only see a few kerosene lamps strangely hanging on the mast. As for whether there was any light, Qin Xiaoxi couldn’t tell at all.

“If you’re asking if I can see the kerosene lamps, then I can… but I can’t see the light at all!” Qin Xiaoxi was speechless at this point.

“Ahem… you’ll see it when we come back.” Jiang Yun tied the storage bag to his waist while feeling a bit awkward at her words. Then he said, “Okay, shall we go Miss Qin?”

“Can you call me something else?” Qin Xiaoxi rolled her eyes at Jiang Yun.

“What should I call you then? My lady?” Jiang Yun teased.

“Forget it, you should just stop talking.” Qin Xiaoxi shook her head helplessly. Then, she slowly walked towards the towering grayish-white mountains with Jiang Yun.

Every step they took was difficult.

Every step they took sank deep into the snow. When they took their next steps, they would have to lift their legs that were buried in the snow.

After a few steps, Qin Xiaoxi no longer felt cold.

However, her cheeks and palms seemed to be frozen stiff.

“Is this red gold ointment really useful?” Qin Xiaoxi quickly covered her mouth with her hands and blew some steam at her palms.

“The temperature in the northern region is extremely low. If it weren’t for the red gold ointment, we would have frozen to death already.”

Jiang Yun shook his head. At this moment, he seemed to have noticed something and quickly asked, “Are your hands cold?”

Qin Xiaoxi nodded.

At this moment, Jiang Yun seemed to have remembered something. He looked inside his storage bag and took out two pairs of gloves.

“Come, I almost forgot such an important thing.”

Jiang Yun handed one of the gloves to Qin Xiaoxi.

“How do you have everything?” Qin Xiaoxi was a little shocked, but she couldn’t care less. She quickly put on the pair of gloves that Jiang Yun handed to her.

After putting on the gloves, Qin Xiaoxi felt much better. It was hard to imagine if they could withstand the cold with just their coats if they didn’t have the red gold ointment.

Jiang Yun also quickly put on his gloves.

After the two of them were done with their preparations, they continued to head into the mountains.
