Because he was injured and feared the silver-robed young man named Wang Jun and his backing forces might discover his whereabouts,
Zhou Chun didn’t dare to travel using the Golden Winged Tiger when returning to his clan at first, and could only hasten along with his injury.
Not until he had left the borders of the Great Zhou Kingdom and flew past another country did he dare to let the Golden Winged Tiger out to carry him.
About two months passed in this manner before Zhou Chun finally arrived within the borders of the Yang Kingdom.
Taking a detour through the Yang Kingdom was because Zhou Chun also intended to stop by the Hongyu Peak Stronghold to collect Earth Origin Crystal Jade ore and his Spirit Coins.
However, to Zhou Chun’s surprise, when he arrived at the Hongyu Peak Stronghold to collect these items, Lin Wan’er provided him with a piece of news that he found greatly intriguing.
According to Lin Wan’er, a Foundation Establishment late-stage Cultivator of the stronghold named Fu Changqing returned from the snowy plains and recounted a harrowing experience he had there.
Fu Changqing had set out to the snowy plains in search of the Snow Crystal Worm King and, after years of fruitless searching, stumbled upon a shocking scene in a snow valley.
He claimed that while hunting down a second-grade mid-quality Demon Beast, a Frost Yak, he entered the snow valley and inadvertently disturbed a horde of terrifying Demon Insects dwelling there.
In just a few short breaths, the second-grade mid-quality Frost Yak was killed by the terrifying swarm of Demon Insects.
Had Fu Changqing not acted quickly and fled the valley in time, he would have likely shared the same fate as the Frost Yak.
“Taoist Friend Fu, would you recount your findings from the snowy plains to our Clan Leader once more?”
In the cave dwelling, after confirming Zhou Chun’s interest, Lin Wan’er summoned the man in question, Fu Changqing, to recount his findings to Zhou Chun.
Now a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator, Zhou Chun commanded even greater respect, and Fu Changqing was especially careful not to show any disrespect.
Upon hearing Lin Wan’er’s request, Fu Changqing immediately gave Zhou Chun a bow and said, “Junior Fu Changqing, pays respect to Senior Zhou!”
In the Cultivation World, strength is revered, and the accomplished lead the way.
If they were not close friends or clan elders, those of lower cultivation had to address those of higher cultivation as ‘Senior,’ otherwise, it would be considered an offense.
Being a Loose Cultivator, Fu Changqing certainly wouldn’t make a mistake in such a matter.
“There’s no need for formality, Taoist Friend Fu. Please, go on and share your findings!”
Zhou Chun gestured with his hand, signaling him to get to the point.
“Yes, as commanded by my senior.”
Fu Changqing responded and immediately began to recount his experience.
“At that time, the valley was shrouded in cold fog. I could only see a swarm of strange insects emerging from the fog. They resembled hornets, with blue and white patterns on their bodies and dark blue eyes. The smallest were the size of an adult’s fist, while the largest were as big as a human head, and they could spit out white frosty Qi.”
“The Frost Yak I pursued is inherently resistant to ice element and ordinarily, second-grade ice element techniques would hardly harm it.”
“However, it was hit by the swarm’s white frosty Qi and in just a few breaths, it let out a pained cry and fell to the ground, covered in a thick layer of frost, and was actually frozen to death!”
“I was extremely frightened at the time and didn’t dare to linger, so I immediately fled the snow valley, fortunately without being pursued by the insects!”
As he spoke, fear could be seen in Fu Changqing’s eyes, indicating that the perilous incident had left a lasting impression on him.
After listening to his words, Zhou Chun’s gaze shifted, as if he had come to a realization.
He quickly nodded and said, “I understand the situation. Taoist Friend Fu, you may go back now. If there is need of your assistance again, I will seek you out.”
“Yes, junior takes his leave.”
Fu Changqing didn’t dare to say more and respectfully took his leave.
Once he was gone, Lin Wan’er looked at Zhou Chun and asked, “Clan Leader, do you know what those Demon Insects Taoist Friend Fu saw might be?”
Zhou Chun shook his head in response, “I can’t say for sure yet, I need to look into the classics more thoroughly first!”
After saying this, he patted his Storage Pouch at his waist and took out his copy of the Heaven and Earth Strange Insects List and other related insect guides to consult.
After searching for about half an hour, Zhou Chun had a good idea of what the insects were.
Based on his research in the classics, the Demon Insects described by Fu Changqing could very likely be the “Skyfrost Cold Bee” ranked ninety-eighth on the Heaven-Earth Strange Insects Ranking.
This content is taken from fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm.
According to the records, “Skyfrost Cold Bees” are strange insects that live in the icy and snowy regions. They are fierce by nature and feed on the Demon Beasts of the snowy plains, as well as prefer to consume minerals or herbs that contain pure ice spiritual power.
The most formidable trait of the “Skyfrost Cold Bees” is the “Skyfrost Cold Qi” they condense inside their bodies, which is the white frosty Qi mentioned by Fu Changqing.
The power of this “Skyfrost Cold Qi” increases as the “Skyfrost Cold Bee” itself grows stronger. Mature “Skyfrost Cold Bees” can spray “Skyfrost Cold Qi” that can freeze the Divine Soul of a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator and come with a potent frost poison.
Even a Golden Core Stage Cultivator who comes into contact with it must expend a great amount of mana to dispel it.
If the swarm that Fu Changqing saw were indeed “Skyfrost Cold Bees,” then it is no surprise that the second-grade mid-quality Frost Yak was frozen to death by the cold Qi.
After all, the trait of “Skyfrost Cold Qi” to freeze the Divine Soul and its dreadful frost poison cannot be simply resisted by possessing a high resistance to cold.
However, considering that Fu Changqing managed to escape, whether the insects were truly “Skyfrost Cold Bees” remained to be confirmed by Zhou Chun.
