The town of Frost and Snow was shrouded in a hazy mist in the early morning, resembling a fairyland. Three figures gathered at the town gate.

Xin Lanyunge was still dressed in white. On her shoulder, the snow-white fox was lazily grooming its fur, its bright eyes darting around.

When Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi came into view, Xin Lanyunge's face lit up with a gentle smile.

"You two have arrived at just the right time," Xin Lanyunge said, then took out three silver-white cloaks from her storage ring. The cloaks emitted a faint spiritual light, clearly indicating that they were not ordinary items.

"This is made from the fur of the snow wolf of the Ice Plains, which can protect against the cold of the extreme cold."

Lu Lingxi took the cloak, her fingertips gently gliding over the soft fur, feeling the warmth it contained, a hint of appreciation flashing in her eyes.

"Young Master Xinlan is very thoughtful; this cloak is indeed extraordinary."

Nalan Rongzhi glanced at it coldly, said nothing, and then silently put the cloak on.

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of them set off on their journey to the frigid land.

Along the way, Xin Lanyunge frequently introduced the local customs and culture, as well as various exotic animals and rare spiritual plants to the two of them, just like a knowledgeable guide.

The snow-white fox would sometimes jump off his shoulder and hop and skip ahead to explore the way, lively and adorable.

"There is a forest of ice crystals five miles ahead."

Upon reaching a certain spot, Xin Lanyunge suddenly stopped, a serious expression appearing on his handsome face. "A kind of spirit beast called the 'Ice Crystal Serpent' inhabits that place. It is extremely dangerous. They are adept at concealing their tracks and ambushing their prey. We'd better take a detour and avoid this dangerous area."

Before the words were finished, a biting wind howled in, and tiny ice crystals drifted in the air, shimmering eerily in the sunlight.

Lu Lingxi's gaze sharpened instantly. With a wave of her hand, a ball of blazing flame danced in her palm, ready to deal with any unexpected situation.

Nalan Rongzhi moved his feet imperceptibly, protecting Lu Lingxi Yao behind him, his body radiating a chilling aura.

The snow-white fox suddenly pricked up its ears and let out a low growl, as if warning something.

The next moment, dozens of giant, completely transparent snakes suddenly sprang out of the snow. Their bodies reflected a dazzling array of colors in the sunlight, beautiful yet deadly.

These ice crystal snakes opened their blood-red mouths, revealing sharp fangs, and pounced on the three of them with astonishing speed!

"Be careful!" Xin Lanyunge shouted softly. Silver light flashed in his hand, and a crystal-clear ice sword instantly condensed. He moved and turned into a blur as he met the ice crystal snakes.

Lu Lingxi reacted extremely quickly. With a series of swift movements, several fiery whips shot out, dancing in the air like fire dragons, tearing the skin and flesh of the approaching ice crystal snakes, causing them to emit shrill cries.

These fiery whips seemed to possess a spirit of their own, weaving together in the air to form an impenetrable net of fire, firmly trapping the ice crystal snake.

Nalan Rongzhi was even more direct. His spiritual energy surged, and a world-destroying aura spread out. He struck out with his palm, and before the palm wind could even get close, several ice crystal snakes were pulverized into powder by this terrifying palm force, leaving not even a trace.

The three worked together seamlessly, and the battle ended quickly. Xin Lanyunge looked at Lu Lingxiyao with a deeper meaning in her eyes. The snow-white fox also tilted its head, thoughtfully observing the couple, as if it were pondering something.

"I never expected the two of you to be so strong. You are truly impressive."

Xin Lanyunge sheathed her ice sword, a smile of appreciation on her face. "However, this is just the beginning. The deeper we go into the extreme cold, the more dangers we will encounter. We still need to be more careful."

Lu Lingxi smiled faintly: "Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Xinlan. I'll trouble you to lead the way." She knew in her heart that this extremely cold place was no safe haven, and this journey would surely be fraught with danger.

Nalan Rongzhi remained silent, but a hint of wariness flashed in his deep eyes. He felt that Xin Lanyunge and the fox seemed to be hiding some secret, and that they seemed to have an extraordinary understanding of this extremely cold place.

As night fell, a cold wind howled and the temperature plummeted. The three rested in a sheltered cave, where a campfire was lit, bringing a touch of warmth.

Xin Lanyunge's fox left the cave alone, saying it was to scout out the surrounding area.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lu Lingxi Yao lowered her voice and said to Nalan Rongzhi, "Have you noticed that the fox seems unusual? Its eyes are too lively, almost like a person's. It's probably not just an ordinary spirit beast."

Nalan Rongzhi nodded slightly: "I noticed it too. It seems to have a special spiritual energy fluctuation, and it seems to be very familiar with this extremely cold place. It is probably of extraordinary origin."

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the cave, and the snow-white fox darted in quickly, its eyes gleaming with excitement, squeaking.

Xin Lanyunge immediately stood up, a mysterious smile on her face: "It seems it has discovered some clues. Our itinerary tomorrow may be very interesting."

Lu Lingxi and Nalan Rongzhi exchanged a glance, both seeing wariness in each other's eyes. This trip to the extreme cold was probably far more complicated than it appeared.
