Chapter 12: Set Out to the Far North and Encounter an Evil Spirit Master.
"Qinghan, I want to discuss something with you."
The second day after seeing off Tang Ya, Lin Qinghan had just come out of his meditation state when Tianmeng Ice Silkworm called Lin Qinghan in the Sea of Spirit.
"What's the matter?"
With a thought, Lin Qinghan's spirit body appeared in the Sea of Spirit.
The Sea of Spirit at this time was very different from before. The surface of the Sea of Spirit, which had been somewhat dry before, now seemed to be covered with liquid, and under the shining of the Sun of Life, it was emitting layers of golden green wavy glare.
"Remember my spirit ring? Can I add a martial spirit to you? Now that you are about the same level, it's time to add a spirit ring to that blank martial spirit to finalize it."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's voice at this time was not as lazy as before, and seemed a little guilty.
Lin Qinghan knew that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was still thinking about the Ice Emperor, but it was also strange. It stands to reason that most things like silkworms are hermaphrodites, so how could there be such a concept? It's really that fantasy things have nothing to do with science.
"Okay, tell me."
Seeing Lin Qinghan agreed, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm told him his plan.
"So according to what you said, our target this time is the Ice Emperor, one of the three great kings of the Far North, a soul beast that is infinitely close to 400,000 years old?"
Lin Qinghan's mouth twitched slightly. In fact, this matter is quite ridiculous. Let him, a level 39 soul master whose combat power is at most comparable to that of a mid-level soul emperor, go to face the Ice Emperor directly? If Lin Qinghan had not read the original work and knew that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was sure, someone else would think Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was crazy.
Since he had Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Lin Qinghan would naturally not miss the Ice Emperor, but he would choose a more stable approach—such as going there in a few years when he is stronger. At least if something unexpected happens, he will have the ability to escape.
"Don't worry, our purpose is not hunting, but negotiation—to make her a similar existence to me. And her heavenly tribulation will come in a few years, so the possibility of successful negotiation is very high."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's body began to twist again. It was unknown what he thought of—his small golden eyes blinked.
"Okay, let's give it a try and go to the Far North."
Lin Qinghan no longer hesitated and set off directly according to the guidance of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

Two Days Later – The Far North, Border Town
The Far North is still quite far away. Lin Qinghan flew intermittently for two days and finally arrived at the border of the Far North. He planned to rest here first.
Entering this border town, Lin Qinghan's biological force field unfolded and he soon found a hotel.
However, the excessively low price and luxurious decoration made Lin Qinghan a little confused, but he thought that it might be because the cities on the border of the Far North were sparsely populated and the consumption was low, so he checked in without thinking too much.
He planned to rest here for a day and needed to replenish his daily necessities.

Midnight
In the middle of the night, several black-robed figures came to the door of Lin Qinghan's room.
"Are you sure? That kid lives in this room," the black-robed man in the lead said.
"It's confirmed. I checked in personally. This kid must be here. He doesn't look big, but he has several storage soul guides on him. He must be very rich," a thin black-robed figure echoed.
"Well, it looks like we can make a lot of money this time. Let's tie him up and interrogate him about his background. Then we can threaten this kid's family to pay a ransom. We can ask for it a few more times—and finally kill him."
"Be careful. This kid should be a soul master."
Several black-robed figures outside the door had already released their martial spirits and soul rings. The black-robed man in the lead is a soul master, and the others are great soul masters.
Lin Qinghan suddenly opened his eyes, broke away from the meditative state, and expanded his spiritual stance. He felt that there were several sneaky black-robed figures outside the door, and secretly thought that this hotel was indeed fishy.
Lin Qinghan's thoughts turned quickly, but his actions were not slow at all. He released his martial spirit and used a spiritual projection to cover himself.
"Robbers, and they want to kill people and rob goods. They look so skilled—it seems that they have done it many times."
Lin Qinghan released the biological electric martial soul and activated the first soul skill: Thunder Body. His right hand began to accumulate power. It was not worth using his third soul skill to deal with these people.
Just when Lin Qinghan had finished accumulating power, the robbers outside the door broke in.
"Huh? Why is there no one? Are you sure this kid lives in this room—"
Before the black-robed man in the lead could finish his words, Lin Qinghan had already released the thunder that had been accumulating in his right hand. For a moment, all the black-robed people present did not even scream, but twitched all over.
Not long after, all the black-robed people had turned into charred corpses.
Lin Qinghan looked at these charred corpses, shook his head, and a flash of lightning flickered in his hand. A ray of thunder ignited their clothes, and the bodies also burned.
Giving up the idea of resting here, Lin Qinghan flashed away directly.
"Damn, I didn't expect to encounter murderers and robbers even when staying in a hotel."
Lin Qinghan had already left the hotel and removed his spiritual projection disguise, cursing.
He originally wanted to practice in the middle of the night, then sleep until the sun rose, and comfortably set off to the Far North. But he didn't expect to encounter such a thing, and now he couldn't even stay in a hotel.
It was almost midnight, and because it was very cold here at night, most hotels were closed, and he had to sleep on the streets in such cold weather.
Lin Qinghan kept cursing, but he never removed his spiritual stance and remained vigilant at all times.

Then... Danger Again
Lin Qinghan suddenly focused his eyes and noticed several dark auras. He quickly used his spiritual projection again and flew into the air.
Sure enough, a moment later, a faint sound of footsteps came, and several black-robed figures ran over like leaps and stopped here.
"That kid shouldn't have run far. The smell stopped here," a soul master with the characteristics of a black dog under his martial spirit possession—obviously the martial spirit of the black dog—said.
"Damn it, why is there no one here now!"
The leader, who was wearing a more formal black robe, was a little irritable, and the martial spirit ring on his body could not help but release.
"It's actually an evil soul master—and an evil soul saint!"
Lin Qinghan looked at the strange martial spirit of the black-robed man through his spiritual standpoint, and he knew the identity of these black-robed men.
Are they all crazy because of poverty? They actually sent out soul saints for a child like him. He is not a match for soul saints now, let alone evil soul masters and soul saints. If they fight head-on, he will probably be defeated in an instant.
"It's better to leave first."
Seeing that the black-robed man looked around but couldn't find him, Lin Qinghan turned around and left, and quickly used the spiritual force field to fly toward the direction of the Far North.
The Far North is known as the forbidden area for humans, and they don't have to chase him to that extent for him.
"I'm so unlucky today. I didn't expect to meet an evil spirit master, and I didn't expect that they actually have a spirit master who can track smells."
Lin Qinghan flew and sprinted until he was exhausted. He fell into a snowdrift, gasping for breath, thinking to himself that he should be more cautious next time and must improve his spiritual projection.
