Dragon Hidden in the Sky

When Ye Qing saw these people, his expression changed slightly.

"Twelve people, could they be from the base?" Lin Qianyu asked.

Ye Qing counted them and found there were indeed twelve people. At this moment, these twelve people were slowly walking towards them from this direction.

As they approached, the dozen or so people stopped opposite them. After a short while, a man wearing sunglasses stepped forward and looked at Ye Qing and the others, asking, "Who are you people?"

Ye Qing stepped forward and said, "I am a member of the Heavenly Net. My name is Ye Qing. I need to go deep into this ice wall because of some things!"

"You are Ye Qing?" The man's tone was one of surprise, but his expression was completely obscured because his face was covered.

"I must warn you, it's extremely dangerous in here. I don't know what your purpose is, but I suggest you don't go any further," the man said. "Come back with us, or you might even get lost!"

“We’ve met with Senior Wang Yang and greeted him. You’re all from the Arctic base, right?” Ye Qing said.

The man nodded and said, "Yes! You're planning to go even further along this route?"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Since Old Wang has already told you, and you insist on going deeper, then I won't say anything more. Be careful on your own, and if you can't hold on, remember to come back immediately!" the man said.

"Thank you!" Ye Qing said.

"Hey guys, let's take a break!" he called out to the people behind him.

Those people were panting heavily, and then sat down on the snow.

"Let's change clothes and continue!" Z said at this moment, seemingly unwilling to have much more contact with them.

Ye Qing nodded. He checked the clothes and found there weren't too many problems. He then took off his heavy cotton coat and put on the clothes Z had given him.

The material of this garment looks somewhat similar to that of an exoskeleton, but it feels warm to the touch. After Ye Qing put it on, the garment was different from a cotton-padded coat; it wasn't as heavy, making movement much easier.

Moreover, there was a small box on the right shoulder of the garment containing a blue crystal. The entire garment radiated heat, and although it was not thick, it was quite warm to wear!

Seeing Ye Qing and the others' actions, the person who had spoken to Ye Qing frowned and said, "You actually took off your clothes?"

"This clothing can generate heat; it's specially made!" Ye Qing said with a smile. "Then, everyone, let's continue our exploration!"

Those people had strange expressions, but they didn't say much. They waved to Ye Qing and said, "Be careful. Remember to come back immediately if you can't hold on. There are many strange things deep inside this Arctic ice wall. You must be very careful."

"Thank you!" Ye Qing said.

After saying goodbye to the others, the group of six ventured deeper into the area. After walking about a hundred meters, Ye Qing's pupils suddenly contracted.

He actually sensed a hint of killing intent from behind him.

That murderous intent flashed by in an instant.

When Ye Qing turned around, the other group waved to him again.

Ye Qing turned around, his brows furrowed.

"What's wrong?" Lin Qianyu asked.

Ye Qing adjusted his sunglasses and said, "They just showed murderous intent!"

"Killing intent?" Z's pupils contracted slightly. "Could it be that they aren't from the Heavenly Net?"

"Could you be mistaken?" the second son asked. "I didn't notice anything."

“There’s no mistake!” Ye Qing said, “But it doesn’t matter anymore. If they really intend to kill us, they’re just asking for it. Let’s just ignore them.”

They then proceeded along the route indicated on the parchment.

Behind them, the person at the very front took off his sunglasses, revealing himself to be Lao Yan.

He slowly exhaled and said, "So you really came here for this place, huh!"

He pointed to someone!

“Go back and tell Lao Wang and the others to come over. We’ll follow them quietly and then guard the entrance. If they go in… don’t let them come out!” Lao Yan said, taking a deep breath.

……

Ye Qing and his group of six didn't care about all that and continued to venture deeper into the area.

Sure enough, an endless chill swept over them, and the intensity of the chill continued to increase as they went deeper.

Ye Qing estimated that even top experts would have a hard time enduring this place while wearing cotton-padded clothes!

Fortunately, the heating suit that Z researched was indeed quite effective; apart from his face, Ye Qing could hardly feel any coldness on his body.

The group didn't move too fast, and after walking for more than an hour, they had already gone nearly 30 kilometers into the area.

On the back of the second brother, Z said, "If we go any deeper, we'll probably see some ice sculptures of people. But we didn't take this route before, so we don't know what's on this route."

"Sir!" Just then, Yu Duo spoke up, "Look at that iceberg over there, isn't there a gap in it?"

Ye Qing and the others followed Yu Duo's hand and looked over. Sure enough, on a distant iceberg, there was a dark cave entrance, pitch black inside.

"I guess it was dug out by the surveyors to use as a resting place?" Z guessed. "But we've been traveling for several hours, let's go there to rest and get something to eat!"

Ye Qing nodded.

Then the group arrived at the front of the iceberg and found that the cave entrance was much larger than they had imagined, with a great height and width. It was pitch black inside, and they could not see what was inside.

Han Xiao took out a powerful flashlight, turned it on, and walked inside!

Inside, it was also covered in ice and snow, looking somewhat like a cave.

Ye Qing and the others found a sheltered spot to sit down and took out some food!

Yu Duo and Han Xiao, meanwhile, took another flashlight and carefully inspected the inside to prevent any accidents from happening!

"what!"

Just as Ye Qing and the others were eating, a scream suddenly rang out.
