30: Close to the Deep Seabed
After several months, Shen Hanyu returned to the area near the sea in the Far North.This place is also near the place where he and Tianmeng met for the first time. It is the territory of the Frost Snake. There are usually few other lives here. It can be regarded as a pure land that belongs only to the Frost Snake.
The wind and snow here are obviously smaller than those in the outer circle, but the wind is very strong, and can even blow some small stones
. The sky is foggy, a bit like the smog weather in the previous life, and the air is mixed with the salty smell of the sea breeze. People who are not used to this kind of environment would have been hit and fallen ill by now...
Shen Hanyu did not have any bad feelings. Most of this area was piles of rocks covered with ice and frost. In some places, there was even an abyss just below one step. There was water flowing under the ice in many cracks in the rocks, making tinkling sounds that echoed in the empty surroundings, adding a touch of mystery.
Tian Meng secretly released his spiritual power and shared the scene he saw with Shen Hanyu. The reason why he did not dare to use his spiritual power casually was probably because this place was not far from the core circle, and the real owner of this area was a 200,000-year-old beast, but it didn't have much life left...
Because this is a gathering place for snake soul beasts, there are many small soul beasts such as snow rabbits and snow ferrets living under the nearby rocks, which are also one of the only food sources for the frost snakes.
These areas are rarely visited by humans, so almost everything remains the same as it was when it was first created. The creatures here have the most primitive wildness, and even the Star Dou Great Forest rarely has such a pure land.
In addition to the above soul beasts, there is another soul beast here, which is a large group of small Tianmeng, the real survival master of the Far North, the bottom of the food chain, the ice silkworm...
This kind of soul beast can be found in almost every corner of the Far North, and can even survive outside the Far North. Regardless of how strong it is, at least its survival adaptability and reproduction abilities are first-class.
Tian Meng was inexplicably proud of this, and he pulled Shen Hanyu aside to tell him a lot about their ice silkworm clan, and even some things he had personally experienced.
Shen Hanyu was not very interested, but he did not want to dampen Tianmeng's interest, so he just listened quietly, and only expressed his opinions from time to time when he heard something interesting.
As we went deeper and deeper, the waves became smaller, the terrain on the shore began to become flatter, groups of floating ice began to appear on the sea, and several huge icebergs could be vaguely seen on the sea in the distance.
From time to time, you can see water columns rising from the sea. The soul beasts that produce these water columns are naturally the largest soul beast clan in this sea area, the Frost Sea Whale
The Cold Sea Whale itself is not a warlike and brutal soul beast. Its largest size can even reach over 70 meters, which can be called a super giant. Even a newborn Cold Sea Whale cub can easily surpass many shark-like soul beasts in size.
And don't think that their good personalities mean they are not strong in combat. The huge size of the Cold Sea Whale represents unparalleled strength. Despite their large size, their speed is still terrifyingly fast, even surpassing soul beasts like the Deep Sea Swordfish, which are famous for their speed and attack power.
"Tsk tsk, Han Yu, there are many rare soul beasts in this sea area, such as 80,000-year-old iron-arm red crabs, 50,000-year-old blue demon octopuses, and a group of 30,000-year-old cold sea whales. There is even a 90,000-year-old bloodthirsty shark in the distance. The ocean here is deep and hidden enough, and there is plenty of food. It seems that it has attracted many powerful soul beasts to settle here."
Tian Meng was amazed. The density of high-level soul beasts here was even comparable to that of the core circle in the Far North.
Shen Hanyu nodded, and moved quickly through the pile of boulders covered with ice and snow, making almost negligible noise.
After walking for about five kilometers, Tian Meng was suddenly startled, and then hurriedly said:
"Han Yu, hide quickly, a powerful soul beast is approaching us!"
Shen Hanyu was stunned for a moment, then jumped directly into the snow layer that was several meters thick below. Tian Meng used his mental power to create a camouflage effect and completely eliminated their breath and traces.
"What's wrong, Tianmeng? What kind of soul beast is it that makes you so nervous?"
Shen Hanyu asked in the sea of spirit
"It's that 200,000-year-old frost snake demon! I didn't expect that my mental power only revealed a trace of its aura, and this guy's mental power took the opportunity to complete a thorough contact with my mental power. The other party also has strong mental attributes. This is a miscalculation. I didn't expect that a mere 200,000-year-old beast could actually sense my mental power."
Tian Meng said in a panic and anxious voice.
Shen Hanyu frowned, held his breath, and secretly observed the outside world through Tianmeng's mental power.
In the strong wind, the sound of a snake's tail rubbing against the ground slowly sounded from a distance, and then a figure about two meters tall slowly appeared where Shen Hanyu had just stood.
There was a hint of surprise in Shen Hanyu's eyes. This frost snake demon was so small, and judging from its appearance, it was actually a female.
The opponent's upper body was completely in human form. His face was not absolutely beautiful, but it had a unique charm. His long light blue hair spread over his blue armor, giving him a wild beauty.
The lower body is a complete snake tail. In addition to ice-blue scales, there is also a piece of water-blue crystal inlaid on the tail, which looks inexplicably noble and graceful.
Shen Hanyu swallowed his saliva unconsciously. He had seen many beauties, but this was the first time he had seen someone so special like the other one.

The Frost Snake Demon stood on a boulder, her sharp eyes swept around, but she found nothing. Then a hint of doubt and fierceness appeared in her eyes, and finally she walked slowly away without any reluctance.
Tian Meng also said at this time:
"She seems to have discovered our traces with her mental power, but she can only determine the approximate location. In addition, my mental power is stronger than hers, and she is injured and her body is slowly decaying, so this is just a rough exploration, and there is no real search."
Shen Hanyu waited until the other party walked far away before getting up from the snow. He slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said,
"Be careful. There are many spirit beasts here. Although your spirit power is strong enough, mistakes are inevitable. We are lucky this time. The other party did not intend to investigate further. It was just a simple inspection..."
Tian Meng agreed solemnly. Only the person involved knew how dangerous the situation was. It was impossible to empathize with him without experiencing it personally.
Shen Hanyu took a deep look at the direction where the Frost Snake Demon left, and a strange feeling rose in his heart. He felt endless sadness and pain from the other party, which was like a storage body of negative energy, and there was no hope of despair...
After taking one last look at the direction the other party had left, Shen Hanyu took a detour and re-entered this dangerous and beautiful world...
