162. Saber Cleaves a Snow Avalanche

The Northern Territory of Great Chang.

This place was once known as the North Country, the Snow Country. It snowed all year round, with nearly three hundred days of icy weather. The climate was extremely cold.

The people living here were called the Snow Clan. They once established a kingdom called "Snow Country". However, it was later annihilated by Great Chang.

Great Chang incorporated Snow Country into its territory, becoming its own northern frontier.

Extreme North City. As the name suggests, it was the city at the farthest north. Beyond Extreme North City lay an endless snowfield. The people of the Snow Clan all had white hair and their bodies were tall. They were different from people in other parts of Great Chang.

At the city gate, there were two men of average stature, at least when compared to the people of the Snow Clan here, standing quietly at the city gate. They were staring at the situation outside the city gate. Motionless.

After an unknown amount of time. Shen Lianxin slowly said, "Today is the day we agreed with Liu Yibai. Brother Lin, but Liu Yibai hasn't arrived yet!"

These two men were none other than Lin Fei and Shen Lianxin. Since the day of their battle by the river, the two had been nearly inseparable. Every day they would spar with each other in saber techniques, honing their saber intent. Moreover, Lin Fei even shared the situation he had learned about saber momentum with Shen Lianxin.

Lin Fei also wrote a letter to Liu Yibai explaining Shen Lianxin's situation. He hoped that Shen Lianxin could join them in hunting exotic beasts. Liu Yibai readily agreed, of course. After all, even an underage exotic beast was quite terrifying, even if he and Lin Fei joined forces, they would not be entirely confident.

As for Shen Lianxin, according to Lin Fei, he was also a powerful figure at the same level as them, nearly unbeatable below the Foundation Establishment realm.

Therefore, with Shen Lianxin's participation, the hunting of exotic beasts might go more smoothly. Of course, the most important point was an underage exotic beast was very huge. Its flesh and blood were enough for four or five people to reach body perfection.

Therefore, even with the addition of Shen Lianxin, it would not pose a threat to the interests of Liu Yibai and Lin Fei.

Liu Yibai wrote back agreeing to Shen Lianxin's participation. Then he set the time. They would meet in the Extreme North City of the Northern Territory on the eighth day of the third month.

Today was the eighth day of the third month. Lin Fei and Shen Lianxin arrived at Extreme North City three days in advance. But Liu Yibai has not shown up yet.

"Continue to wait."

Lin Fei calmly replied. Shen Lianxin also nodded. The two had been waiting in Extreme North City for three days. They didn't mind waiting a little longer.

"Huu..."

The cold wind whistled. Snowflakes fell.

"Shush."

Both Lin Fei and Shen Lianxin suddenly looked up, looking straight ahead. On the deserted street, a man wearing a thick cotton coat, with a long sword on his back, was walking step by step towards the city gate.

"Number One Sword Under Heaven, Liu Yibai!"

Shen Lianxin said solemnly. He had never seen Liu Yibai. But he had heard of Liu Yibai's reputation a long time ago.

Number One Sword Under Heaven! What an honor!

Once, Shen Lianxin even thought about seeking Liu Yibai. However, Liu Yibai had been in seclusion for many years, with his sword sealed. Shen Lianxin gave up on the idea.

"Saber Fanatic, Shen Lianxin!"

Liu Yibai said calmly, "Master Lin says that your saber techniques are divine and are not weaker than his."

"Brother Lin overpraises me."

Shen Lianxin and Liu Yibai met each other and thus got acquainted. However, Liu Yibai did not mention the idea of comparing notes with Shen Lianxin. Shen Lianxin was a person recognized by Lin Fei. He trusted Lin Fei quite a bit.

"Brother Liu, you asked us to meet in Extreme North City. Could it be that the exotic beast is in the Northern Territory?"

Shen Lianxin couldn't help but ask. He was even more anxious than Lin Fei. After all, both he and Liu Yibai were much older than Lin Fei. If they missed this opportunity, even if they had the flesh and blood of an exotic beast in the future, their age would be too great, their energy would not be up to par, and their vital energy would be declining. It's doubtful they would be able to reach body perfection.

"It's not in the Northern Territory, but beyond the Northern Territory! Brother Lin, Brother Shen, let's go."

With that, Liu Yibai directly led Lin Fei and Shen Lianxin out of Extreme North City. They arrived outside the city. Outside Extreme North City, everywhere was a snowfield. The three of them walked through the snow, continuing northward.

The further north they went, the colder it became. This kind of cold was already unbearable for ordinary people. Even acquired martial artist, it was afraid they would be frozen to death in this snowfield.

"The Northern Territory is cold, especially this extreme northern place, which is extremely cold. Go further north, and we'll encounter the cold current. The cold current could even freeze our Innate True Qi, it's a huge drain on Innate True Qi.

So, we need to be quick. We must get through the cold current as quickly as possible. Remember, never burst out your Innate True Qi. Otherwise, once a big avalanche is triggered, we would probably have no place to be buried!"

Liu Yibai reminded Lin Fei and Shen Lianxin with a serious expression. In fact, without Liu Yibai's reminder, both Lin Fei and Shen Lianxin knew that this extreme northern place was not to be underestimated. Because, of the cold right now, they had to use their Innate True Qi and saber energy to resist it.

"Let's go!"

The next moment, Liu Yibai's figure darted forward. He directly sprinted forward. Lin Fei also used the Close Yet Distant technique, following behind him. Shen Lianxin was not to be outdone. He also followed closely.

The three of them ran wildly all the way. The Innate True Qi and Saber Qi in their bodies seemed to be vaguely frozen, running not smoothly.

"Huu..."

The gale howled. On both sides were towering snow mountains. Below was only a small canyon. There were hardly any traces of human activity. Even the birds and beasts had vanished. This place seemed like a forbidden zone for life.

Suddenly, Liu Yibai raised his head sharply. In the sky, the snow fell even heavier, and more terrifying was the wild wind, blowing incessantly. The snow mountains on all sides were faintly trembling and roaring.

"Rumble..."

Soon, the snow mountains on all sides were roaring.

"Not good, it's an avalanche."

Liu Yibai's face changed.

Avalanche! And it was a large one. There were avalanches on all sides. At such a fast speed, even with the speed of Lin Fei and the others, they could not retreat. This was the power of nature. It was the power of heaven and earth.

Even if they were martial arts Grand Masters, standing at the peak of humanity, in the face of this natural force, they still seemed insignificant. This was the difference from a Qi cultivator. A Qi cultivator could at least fly.

However, in this extreme northern place, there were cold currents, which could freeze True Qi and spiritual power. If a Qi Condensation cultivator really tried to fly using magical artifacts, their spiritual power would be frozen, and they would instantly fall down and be smashed into a mush.

This extreme northern place was a true forbidden zone for life. Neither martial artists nor Qi Condensation cultivators dared to come here.

"We must rush through, regardless of the cost!"

Liu Yibai was furiously stimulating his Innate True Qi. He used his body technique to try to rush through at the fastest speed before the avalanche arrived. However, he was ultimately too slow!

"Boom."

The avalanche arrived. It directly fell onto the path in front of the three of them. This only path in the canyon was completely blocked.

At the same time, a more massive avalanche was rolling down from the mountain peak. At this moment, the three of them seemed to have fallen into a death trap!

"This is the power of heaven and earth, the power of nature. How insignificant our power seems in the face of the power of heaven and earth. We can't withstand a single avalanche..."

Shen Lianxin murmured quietly. He seemed to have foreseen the end.

"Man can conquer nature! If there is no way, then I will cut a path!"

Lin Fei dashed to the front where the path was blocked by the avalanche.

A large amount of snow, rocks, and dirt blocked the path, like a small mountain. It was despairing.

Lin Fei's saber energy surged out wildly from his body. In an instant, a thousand meters high saber energy appeared in the void, emitting infinite sharpness.

One thousand meters was almost as high as some mountain peaks.

Lin Fei's clothes were flapping. His expression was solemn, filled with a murderous aura. He joined his hands together toward the direction that was blocked in front and direct slash downward.

"Heavenly Saber Art, Slash!"

Suddenly, the one thousand meters saber energy, magnificent and carrying endless sharpness, was like a divine saber descending from the heavens, slashed fiercely onto the snow heap.

"Boom."

The huge snow heap was directly shredded by the terrifying saber energy. A snow heap as high as thousand meters, similar to a small mountain peak.

But at this moment, it was sliced open by Lin Fei's one thousand meters saber energy, directly creating a huge ravine!

Even if it was Shen Lianxin and Liu Yibai, who had already reached the pinnacle of the world's martial arts, at this moment, they also felt an unparalleled shock in their hearts.

This saber of Lin Fei was unlike any earthly saber technique! This was the real power of heaven and earth!
