Beast Taming: Invincible Breeder-Chapter 353 - 328: Ice City

Li Cunxu carefully recalled his memory but couldn’t think of any opportunity to get an Enlightenment Realm Stone.

Returning to the room, he found Jiang Lingyun there too. In front of her, the table was piled with prizes from various game activities, yet despite so many prizes, she wasn’t happy. She supported her head with both hands, staring at the prizes gloomily.

"What’s the matter?"

Xiao White Spider replied with a smile, "She’s won too many prizes these days; when she went today, people directly gave her the grand prize, just begging her not to go anymore. It’s the same for every place."

Jiang Lingyun said, "Boss, I’m so bored!"

Now the icebreaker ship was within the Divine Cold Storm, with strong magnetic interference. At this time, using electronic devices would inexplicably break them.

With limited entertainment options, there were so many activities to pass the time on the icebreaker ship just to keep people from boredom.

But now, Jiang Lingyun was refused by the activity organizers and had nothing to fend off the boredom.

Li Cunxu said, "Come play Go with me!"

Jiang Lingyun said, "But I don’t know how to play Go."

"Don’t know how to play Go? Then how did you win the Go competition’s championship trophy the day before yesterday?"

Due to the Divine Cold Storm likely freezing it, aside from the Celestial Pavilion Ring, Jiang Lingyun didn’t bring any other Space Rings, so all her prizes were stored in Li Cunxu’s Celestial Pavilion Ring.

The Go champion’s trophy was placed into the Celestial Pavilion Ring by Li Cunxu himself, remembering it particularly clearly.

"I played randomly."

"Played randomly?" Li Cunxu asked, puzzled, "Then why don’t you play randomly with me?"

Li Cunxu started playing Go with Jiang Lingyun, Li Cunxu holding black, Jiang Lingyun holding white.

And then, Li Cunxu lost.

Li Cunxu’s Go skills were not particularly good, nor particularly bad. Winning and losing in Go was normal, but losing to such a method was something Li Cunxu had never experienced before.

Jiang Lingyun’s method was peculiar. She played Go not by placing the pieces, but by tossing them.

When it was her turn, she threw the white pieces into the air, letting them fall randomly onto the board, and wherever they landed, she played there.

And just like that, she defeated Li Cunxu.

"Playing Go and losing to luck, this is the first time."

Xiao White Spider was intrigued by Jiang Lingyun’s method and wanted to try it too.

Xiao White Spider had added fate points to its mind, its calculation power was comparable to AlphaGo.

Surprisingly, it also couldn’t win against Jiang Lingyun’s method of playing, yet it didn’t lose either. It ended in a draw.

Suddenly, a chill swept through.

Jiang Lingyun shivered from the cold, hugging her shoulders and shuddering.

"Why is it suddenly so cold? Doesn’t the icebreaker ship have heating equipment?"

Li Cunxu took out a down jacket for her, "It’s probably because we’ve entered the core area of the Divine Cold Storm, and even the icebreaker ship can’t completely block the cold brought by the storm."

After sailing on the icy sea for half a month, the icebreaker ship reached the port of Ice City.

The port of Ice City was treacherous, with many ice floes in the sea, not ordinary ice floes, but azure ice floes containing a lot of Ice Spiritual Energy, hard as rock, even for a Lord Beastmaster, clearing them was quite troublesome.

The icebreaker ship, with its knife-like bow, smashed through block after block of azure ice floes, as if blasting through mountain after mountain with vast explosives.

Stepping off the icebreaker ship, the piercing cold wind assaulted them, carrying snow and ice.

Freezing cold, this was Ice City painted in reality.

Li Cunxu, after disembarking, did not stay in Ice City but went directly to the Extreme Cold Ice Land outside Ice City.

Glancing back at the increasingly distant Ice City, Li Cunxu sighed with great regret.

"Sigh! Missing out on a fortune."

Originally, Li Cunxu intended to use the Celestial Pavilion Ring to act as a peddler, bringing in a batch of much-needed materials from the outside to Ice City for resale, making a big profit, but later deemed it unwise and decided against it.

Why was it unwise? Li Cunxu realized that if he acted as a peddler in this life, he could most likely sell materials only once; then the Celestial Pavilion Ring might be seized by some strong individuals in Ice City.

The Divine Cold Storm isolated Ice City from the outside world, making Ice City desperate for external resources, and at this time, if a special Space Ring appeared that could pass through the storm and bring in large quantities of outside materials,

what would those strong individuals do? They would undoubtedly seize it from Li Cunxu’s hands.

No strong individual would remain unmoved by such a business opportunity.

Located in the remote Extreme Cold region, coupled with the isolation by the Divine Cold Storm, Ice City’s atmosphere wasn’t as refined as those in Tongdu, Shendu...

Robbing Li Cunxu of the Celestial Pavilion Ring, many strong individuals could do it, even those within the Ice City Alliance.

The strong ones here weren’t so ethical, more like the ancient strong before the large-scale cataclysm, who were unrestrained by law, acting on whims.

Why could Li Cunxu act as a peddler in the game in his previous life?

That’s because players could revive, and they had item-binding cards that Ice City NPCs couldn’t obtain.

In the world of ice and snow, the north wind howled.

Li Cunxu rode the Flame White Horse, with Jiang Lingyun on his back, galloping through the snowy field.

Before long, Li Cunxu encountered Ice Crystal Wolves wandering the ice plains.

Ice Crystal Wolves, elemental creatures, their bodies made of ice, appearing blue and white.

This pack of Ice Crystal Wolves was only as big as huskies, their level only Bronze.

The Flame White Horse directly dashed through them, this pack of Ice Crystal Wolves posed no threat to the Flame White Horse, it didn’t even bother to pay them any mind.

Li Cunxu said, "Flame White Horse, stop here for a moment."

"Chi Xiaoxiong, come out, it’s time to face the enemy."

Li Cunxu summoned Chi Xiaoxiong.

Chi Xiaoxiong rubbed its fists, preparing for battle, "Which ones should I attack?"

"All of them."

Chi Xiaoxiong glanced around, noticing the ice-blue eyes of over a thousand Ice Crystal Wolves staring at it.

"Boss, you can’t be serious?"

Chi Xiaoxiong asked in apprehension.

Li Cunxu replied, "Of course, I am."

"I can’t take them."

"Don’t worry, the Flame White Horse will assist you, you just need to go in and attack."

The Flame White Horse snorted lightly, exuding a powerful aura of a lord tier.

The Ice Crystal Wolves surrounded the Flame White Horse and company in a hunting pack manner.

The Flame White Horse showed confusion and perplexity in its eyes, why wasn’t its aura effective on the Ice Crystal Wolves?

Other Bronze-level pet beasts would have been terrified by its aura, unable to move.

Li Cunxu said, "The innate talent of the Ice Crystal Wolf clan is heartless and mindless, so they are not affected by aura, dragon might, or the like."

Heartless and mindless, plain and ordinary, immune to aura, charm... such spiritual control skills, while also providing a significant downside, this talent means the pet beast has no intellect, only instincts.

It is this very talent that makes the Ice Crystal Wolf clan fearless of the strong within Ice City, coupled with their rapid reproduction and growth, often fearlessly harassing Ice City, resulting in numerous deaths.

"Use the Speed Domain."

The Flame White Horse’s Speed Domain silently expanded, wherever it reached, the Ice Crystal Wolves slowed as if a sixteen-fold slow-motion button was pressed.

With such slowness, Chi Xiaoxiong faced them, tackling them was a breeze.

Flying kicks, body slams...

Chi Xiaoxiong defeated them one by one, then with Plunder activated, forcibly seized their power, speed, defense, and Ice Spiritual Energy.
