Chapter 90 Entering the Far North
With Shui Yu'er's knowledge, she naturally knew about the Immortal Herb.
However, seeing the legendary herb with her own eyes now, Shui Yu'er still found it somewhat unbelievable.
From the outside, apart from some odd shapes, they are not much different from ordinary herbs or even some plants.
Of course, Shui Yu'er would not doubt the truthfulness of Qin Mu's words.
After all, given Qin Mu's status and the strength of Ling Yuan and the other two behind him, there was no need for him to lie to them.
Shui Yu'er was secretly delighted.
Although they lost the millennia-old ice silkworm pupae they had accumulated over the years, they gained an Immortal Herb that could enhance Shui Bing'er's aptitude.
You should know that Shui Bing'er is the most talented person in the Shui family, and she can even be ranked among the most talented in the entire history of the Shui family.
After briefly explaining how to use the Beautiful Silk Tulip to Shui Bing'er, Qin Mu went into the room.
The room temperature would be somewhat cold for an average person, but Qin Mu felt only a slight chill.
Arriving at a piece of ancient ice silkworm pupa, Qin Mu reached out and touched it.
The silkworm pupa felt slightly cool to the touch, but otherwise he didn't feel anything else.
Picking up the ancient ice silkworm pupa, Qin Mu estimated that it weighed only about 10 or 20 pounds.
Following Shui Yu'er's instructions, Qin Mu arrived at the central Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Marrow and began attempting to absorb the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm Pupa.
The slightly cool touch traveled from Qin Mu's hands directly into his mind.
Instantly, Qin Mu felt an unparalleled coolness in his mind, a tingling sensation constantly stimulating his brain.
Three hours later, Qin Mu opened his eyes again.
At this moment, the ancient ice silkworm pupa in his hand had turned into ice shards scattered on the ground.
"It really worked! The improvement from just this one ten-thousand-year-old ice silkworm pupa is enough to make up for a month of my mental energy cultivation!"
With a surprised exclamation, Qin Mu looked at the entire room full of ancient ice silkworm cocoons and suddenly felt that his business deal might not have been a loss after all.
After explaining the situation to Ling Yuan and Yue Guan, Qin Mu immediately decided that the three of them would first absorb all the ice silkworm cocoons in Northern Land City.
The trip to the far north must be put on hold for now.
After all, the distance between Northern Land City and the far north is not very close, and after entering the far north, it will take a long time to reach the Snow Woman.
So Qin Mu simply absorbed all the ice silkworm pupae before going.
In addition, Qin Mu wanted to learn more about the current situation on the continent.
Leaving them behind would not only make it easier to collect authentic intelligence from neutral forces like the Shui family, but it would also prevent the Elephant Armored Sect from making a comeback.
The warehouse full of frozen silkworm pupae, though seemingly small in number, actually far exceeded Qin Mu's expectations.
In addition to the effects of the silkworm pupa, after absorbing one each day, it is necessary to stop for several hours to allow it to settle before absorbing it again.
Thus, Qin Mu stayed at the Shui family's residence for more than half a year.
Over the course of the past six months, Qin Mu absorbed all the ten-thousand-year-old ice silkworm pupae in the warehouse.
Meanwhile, due to spending a long time together, Qin Mu and Shui Bing'er gradually became more familiar with each other.
After all, the two are actually the same age, even though Qin Mu is a reincarnated person and his age is much older than he appears.
But that didn't stop Shui Yu'er and the others from creating opportunities for themselves by sheer coincidence!
Moreover, Qin Mu also enjoyed the youthful energy that Shui Bing'er possessed, and he didn't really refuse her advances.
In order to have more topics to talk about with Qin Mu, Shui Bing'er would chat about trivial things during their spare time.
During the rest of the time, Shui Bing'er worked even harder to cultivate the self-created soul skills taught by Qin Mu.
With Qin Mu's guidance, Shui Bing'er's strength naturally soared like a rocket.
As for the Elephant Armored Sect, it's unclear whether they received the message, but they haven't appeared in Northern Land City since that day.
After absorbing all the ten-thousand-year-old ice silkworm cocoons, Qin Mu did not linger for long.
After a brief farewell to Shui Yu'er and Shui Bing'er, Qin Mu and his companions set off again, venturing deep into the far north.
The process went even more smoothly than Qin Mu had imagined.
Almost immediately after entering the far north, the Snow Woman seemed to sense the presence of the three and appeared before them.
Following the Snow Woman, Qin Mu and his companions returned to the ice cave where Qin Mu had first met her.
At this time, the amount of ancient cold marrow inside the ice cave not only did not decrease, but actually increased considerably.
Besides the ancient, frigid marrow, there was also an ice sculpture in the ice cave that was over ten meters tall.
Inside the ice sculpture is an ape-like monster that looks remarkably similar to the Titan Ape.
"This is a Titan Snow Demon that I found, which is about 50,000 years old."
"I've done the calculations, and with your physical strength, you should be able to withstand a soul beast soul ring that lasts for about 50,000 years."
"After much thought, the only soul beast in the far north that fits your description is the Titan Snow Demon."
Seeing how well the Snow Maiden had arranged everything, Qin Mu couldn't help but feel grateful to her.
"Hey, hey, stop with the cheesy stuff, just focus on absorbing it!"
"You've helped me a lot too. I benefited greatly from that trip deep inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes."
"If you still want to thank me, then hurry up and improve your strength so that you can fight alongside me as soon as possible."
"Then just help me kill that Titan Snow Demon King."
Upon hearing Xue Nu's words, Qin Mu didn't say much, but silently kept his gratitude in his heart and secretly promised to help Xue Nu when he had the strength.
"If it's just about helping you, with Ling Yuan's and my strength, we should be able to assist you, right?"
Ling Yuan, standing beside Yue Guan, explained all the inside information that Yue Guan was unaware of.
Both Yue Guan and Ling Yuan wanted to challenge the Titan Snow Demon King.
"The two of you? Forget it."
"You two are quite strong, but Titan Snow Demon King has a move called Polar Freeze, which can be considered a domain skill."
"Within that area, the strength of both of you will be greatly reduced, especially Ling Yuan, who will be able to exert less than half of her strength."
"Besides, even if I manage to defeat Titan Snow Demon King with your help, what will happen to my final spirit ring? Wouldn't that be a waste?"
"That's a spirit ring that's five or six hundred thousand years old! For you humans, that's practically priceless."
After hearing what Xue Nu said, Ling Yuan and Yue Guan reluctantly gave up their idea.
Qin Mu, who had been listening in the background, felt even more grateful to Xue Nu.
