Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

A cold wind blew.

"How are you doing?"

Seeing the young man's condition, Ye Tianxing became worried. "You're in terrible shape. Put him down and let's walk over together."

Bo Bing regained her senses.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little sleep-deprived."

Bo Bing refused Ye Tianxing's request to walk on his own. The snow was already above his calves, and if Ye Tianxing were put down now, his ankle injury would be soaked in the snow, and by the time they got out, his leg would be ruined.

The young man calmed down and began to correct his course based on the system's warning prompts.

The world was a vast expanse of white, making it impossible to find the right direction. However, with sheer willpower and the help of the system, Bo Bing carried an adult man on his back and found a path through the snow, completing the ascent to the summit around ten o'clock in the morning.

The sun slowly pierced through the gray cover.

The snowfall also lessened.

But this is not a good sign.

The blizzard has stopped. But this is precisely when radiative cooling begins, in which case heat begins to rise, and all the cold air is compressed to the ground.

From afar, it is covered in silver, just like the scene described by Master Gu Long in "Little Li Flying Dagger".

"Snowflakes fly for thousands of miles, turning the sky into a furnace, melting all things into silver."

Bo Bing felt that this ancient dragon was indeed a master. This scene of snow falling for thousands of miles—wasn't it as if everything in the world had been melted into silver?

This is the crucible of heaven and earth.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you truly appreciate how insignificant humans are in the face of nature.

Even with the power of a system, one is but a drop in the ocean compared to the towering snow-capped mountain, utterly insignificant.

Bo Bing didn't know if she would die here.

He swallowed a packet of protein powder with some snow and chewed a piece of chocolate. He activated his skill [Geologist - Beginner], observing everything in his path that could provide him with information. [Leg Bone Enhancement] and [Finger Bone Enhancement] were continuously providing him with energy. [Balance - Beginner] allowed him to move nimbly among the rocks without falling due to a mistake.

Still too weak.

still.

Bo Bing gritted his teeth and moved forward in the snow. Every step he took was like a mermaid on a knife's edge, except that he wasn't wearing the most expensive velvet in the kingdom, but rather rough, damp soles.

He leaned on his ski poles, but finally saw a glimmer of hope.

There's a tent up ahead! And there's even a person's shadow next to it!

His uncle's!

Bo Bing rubbed his eyes hard, making sure he wasn't seeing things. The people over there were looking down, searching for something in the snow. Bo Bing quickly covered his mouth and nose to create oxygen for himself in the cold air and ran towards the Xiyuan Pass ahead. He felt full of energy again.

His eyesight improved significantly under the sun.

The young man ran and walked towards his goal, his excitement growing as he dodged rocks and snow pits with a serpentine gait.

Time passed by minute by minute.

This excitement lasted until around four o'clock in the afternoon.

The sky was already slightly darkening, and snowflakes began to fall again. This is typical of the harsh weather here. We only discovered this halfway up Taibai Snow Ridge, on thin ice.

—Where's the camp?

It can only be that I was too focused on running, only paying attention to side-cutting and obstacle avoidance, and completely deviated from the original tent route.

Bo Bing stared wide-eyed, gripping the rock with one hand as he looked back.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

I was careless and unknowingly passed by while I was focused on climbing!

[Brain] Liberate 1% of your mental energy.

[Photographic Memory] activated.

Bo Bing closed her eyes tightly, then identified a route leading to the tent.

Ye Tianxing had a high fever and had fallen into a coma. The [Yongquan - External Treatment] had been running almost continuously, probably because the fever reducer that Bo Bing had given him to swallow was working. He was now drowsy.

This incredible skill can completely circulate Ye Tianxing's blood and nourish his body, so Bo Bing is quite at ease with this guy.

However, his own [Fountain of Life] had expired a long time ago, and he didn't have the energy to sustain such a long period of consumption, so he could only use instantaneous skills to travel.

The weather will only get worse tonight, and without insulation, I probably won't be able to survive.

Bo Bing resolutely and quickly descended the mountain, heading back to where he had started.

The saying goes well.

—That's what they mean by "it's easy to go up the mountain but hard to come down."

Descending from here is no less difficult than turning back from 2800m. One slip and fall could send you tumbling three times down to the bottom, where you'd end up buried with Ye Tianxing.

Don’t do that kind of thing!!!

After circling around twice, Bo Bing returned to Xiyuan Pass.

Just as he was overjoyed and waving to a group of hikers over there...

[Warning twice]

Alpha's cold voice.

The storm was like a knife.

—My brain was filled with a minty coolness.

Bo Bing's eyes stung, and he incredulously patted the snow onto his eyes—as the ten thousand and first snowflake drifted into his eyes, he saw everything that followed the storm.

Nothing at all.

—This is an illusion!!!

This terrifying contrast was enough to plunge even the thinnest of ice into despair in an instant.

Damn it!

He actually turned back halfway up Taibai Snow Ridge because of a hallucination! He even went around in circles!

The pain in his lumbar spine made him activate the [Yongquan] acupoint, but this was merely a temporary fix. The recovery brought by the [Yongquan] acupoint was far from enough to keep up with the consumption of his mental energy at this moment. Bo Bing painfully covered his head, leaned on his ski poles, and tried to empty his mind to let his body take control.

The system Alpha is still recovering Ye Tianxing.

Bo Bing could only convince himself that once he crossed the Taibai Snow Ridge and the Eighteen Layers of Chaotic Rocks, he could finally rest.

Yes.

This is the only way out!

Thin ice seemed to have regained its courage.

My hands, feet, and lower back are already sore and numb, but my willpower is still keeping me hanging on by a thread.

The emptied mind is constantly entangled with hallucinations, the thin ice keeps climbing, constantly avoiding obstacles, and constantly cutting through each impassable air wall.

With a stinging sensation in her eyes, the phantom pain even made Bo Bing feel as if her left hand and the steel plate inside it were still stuck on the climbing rocks of Taibai Xueliang.

He was running with one right hand and an empty left hand.

[Warning three times]

......

[Seventh Warning]

Between unconsciousness and moments of delirium, Bo Bing continued to move forward by instinct.

He didn't know why, in his brief moments of lucidity, he could see his missing left arm, nor did he know why his gloves and clothes had so many worn marks from memories he couldn't recall.

In his retina, crowds kept walking towards him; in his ears, voices kept gently coaxing him.

Lack of critical thinking skills.

Mental strength dropped below a dangerous level.
