Full-Time Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Mysterious Ancient Tree

Chapter 475 Qin Yu'er's Trail
"Are you alright?" Mu Ningxue hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Seeing her worried expression, Fang Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the noise was a bit loud."

"It's good that you're alright. Let's find a place to rest. It's already late at night, so it's not a good time to go back," Ai Jiangtu suggested.

"it is good!"

……

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
A gust of cold wind blew by, and fine, hair-like snowflakes began to fall continuously.

However, no one paid any attention, assuming it was caused by the strong wind blowing the accumulated snow.

But when Mo Fan was on night watch in the latter half of the night, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"I feel like this is snowing, not snow blown down by the wind!" Although the wind hadn't stopped, Mo Fan felt that something was wrong the more he looked, so he woke everyone up.

Fang Yu, who had just finished a battle, was sleeping soundly when he heard Mo Fan's shouts and had no choice but to get up.

He removed his hand from Mu Ningxue's warm embrace and walked to the entrance of the cave.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"This snow doesn't seem to be blown down, it's actually falling!" Mo Fan said.

Everyone here knows very well what snowfall in the Tianshan Mountains signifies.

This is a warning from the Tianshan Mountains!
If they haven't left by the time the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, they can only wait until spring to leave.

Whether they can wait until next year is clearly still a question.

Putting everything else aside, they don't even have enough food!
"Don't worry, it's just a warning. There are still a few days before the heavy snow closes the mountains, so we have enough time to do what we need to do," Fang Yu said calmly after glancing at it.

With the Heavenly Mark White Tiger outside the cave as their mount, leaving the territory of the Heavenly Mark was naturally not a difficult task.

The Tianshan Scar is fraught with danger, and with snow beginning to fall again, it's really not easy for unfamiliar people to leave!
"Are you sure this is just a warning?" Nan Jue asked with a hint of doubt, watching the snowstorm seem to be getting heavier.

"I've already told you, I've been to Tianshan several times. And even if I'm not sure, the Tianhen White Tiger isn't brainless. Didn't you see it's still resting?"

Nan Jue looked over and, sure enough, Tianhen Baihu did not make any move.

At its level, it possesses a keen awareness of natural threats. Moreover, having survived in the Tianshan Mountains until now, the Heavenly Mark White Tiger naturally understands this place far better than they do.

Since it doesn't react, it seems there's really nothing wrong with it.

After confirming that everyone was alright, they continued to rest.

A speechless night!
The next morning, led by Tianhen Baihu, they returned along the same route.

By daytime, the light snow had stopped, clearly indicating that last night's snow was merely a warning sign.

Although it was just a hint, most of the demons had already begun hibernation. Their journey back was relatively smooth.

After escorting them back to where they had climbed the mountain, Tianhen Baihu let out a few low growls, indicating that he could not leave this place.

Fang Yu nodded in understanding. The Heavenly Mark White Tiger then turned and left. Winter was approaching, and it needed to prepare some food.

After the Heavenly Mark White Tiger left, Fang Yu grabbed the little white tiger and had Mu Ningxue talk to it to take the inventory with her. He remembered very clearly that this little white tiger was a top-quality creature that ate the Heavenly Snow Lotus like candy.

This little white tiger was very sensible; in order to please Mu Ningxue, it picked up things incredibly quickly.

Time passed, and two hours later...

roar!!!?

A tiger's roar came from the direction of the tiger cub, which returned carrying a large bundle on its back.

Honestly, I had no idea this little guy had found such a big package.

Judging from his appearance, he must have had a great harvest, right?
When Fang Yu opened it, he found hundreds of years-old Heavenly Mountain Sacred Lotus, energy crystals, and fragments of ice-type spirit seeds inside...

All sorts of rare and precious treasures appeared before everyone's eyes.

The group, who had initially been drawn to the white tiger cub, were immediately captivated by the bag of rare treasures.

Each of them has taken risks and obtained valuable resources from dangerous places.

However, such a rich harvest was something they could hardly have imagined!
But it's right in front of us!
After storing the items in his spatial ring, Fang Yu led the group deeper into the area. He had another purpose in coming to Tianshan: Qin Yu'er. Without their help, she would have been forced to sacrifice herself at this point.

"Huhuhu~~~"

Compared to the cold winds of the past, this one feels like a gentle spring breeze. The biting wind feels like it's tearing away my life force every moment, and my whole body is so cold and painful that I've lost all feeling!
Even though they were physically strong, they still needed to ignite a flame to resist.

Moreover, from the initial awe-inspiring beauty of the white of Tianshan Scar upon entering this place, to the present white that resembles the fangs of a devil, it evokes a deep sense of weariness and intensifies my inner turmoil.

As they traveled, they unknowingly arrived at the Heavenly Desolate Ice Territory.

Here, the landscape is filled with ice cracks of all sizes, resembling claw marks. From a distance, it looks as if a perfect ice world has been destroyed by the claws of countless evil spirits, a truly horrifying sight. Ironically, these ice cracks become difficult to spot when one is two or three hundred meters away. After all, the edges and cracks of the ice are still ice, and under various reflections of light, they act like mirrors or glass, making them very difficult to distinguish without careful observation.

Moreover, this place is a glacier that has been frozen for hundreds of thousands of years, and even super-level magic would find it difficult to destroy it!

It's like trying to cross a small ditch; there's no way to get past it because there's a strong, icy wind inside with immense suction!

While still on the ground, the ice mark appears bright from above, but this is not actually the case. Moreover, it contains vast amounts of deadly winds and deadly ice silk. The deadly winds pull at nearby wandering objects, stealing their energy and creating an even stronger pulling force, dragging them step by step into the ice mark. Once inside, the deadly ice silk will envelop them, binding them into an ice mummy. Once the entire deadly ice armor is formed, even the most powerful mage will be forever frozen beneath it, keeping company with these glaciers that have existed for hundreds of thousands, even millions of years.

Therefore, even Fang Yu and his group were extremely cautious upon arriving here.

This is the Heavenly Ice Scar, a nightmare for all life. The Azure Peak Heavenly Mountain rejects all living beings, and countless powerful species have fallen into the Ice Scar and never woken up again.

This is the taboo of the Heavenly Mountain Scar. Even a strong person like Fang Yu has to put aside all his pride and take a detour when facing the Ice Scar!

After Fang Yu entered this place, he encountered fewer and fewer demons, and even had almost no chance to fight.

Ice marks cannot be crossed casually, which means that the seemingly flat ice territory is actually as complicated as a maze, and no one wants to come here.

But even though Qin Yu'er had already hidden here, the people from the Court of Judgment were still unwilling to let her go.
