Chapter 408: Chapter 408 – Spreading Coldness

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

It must be said that a bit of bravery was needed to consume it.

However, Huang Kun was brave enough. After hearing Wei Xiao Bei’s words, he tried to swallow the Ice Heart with all his might.

His eyes rolled back as he swallowed the Ice Heart. Afterward, he let out a long sigh, “God, I almost choked to death. I couldn’t even breathe.”

However, before he finished speaking, he immediately trembled and crouched with his hands wrapped around his knees.

As the Ice Heart entered his stomach, a powerful cold air was released. He instantly felt as if his entire body had been frozen.

Wei Xiao Bei had already guessed the consequences of eating such a thing. Thus, he placed Huang Kun on his shoulder as he went down the mountain.

After rushing back to the car, Huang Kun now appeared to be a frozen man excavated from the ground. His clothes had already frozen over, and his face had a layer of frost. He was even about to lose consciousness.

After setting the car’s heating to the max, Wei Xiao Bei stripped Huang Kun of his clothes.

Even the heat coming out of the air conditioner was not able to stop the frost that was slowly condensing on Huang Kun’s body. Even his nose had two ice strips that were stuck there.

If this continued on, Huang Kun would be dead quite soon.

Just as previously said, treasures in the Dust World were also poison. If you could not endure, then the treasure would become poison and rob your life.

The Ice Heart might appear to be a good object as it could grant the power over ice, though it had its drawbacks.

Huang Kun was still in a decent situation. His vitality was stronger than normal people and could still change his expression into the stupid look he had now. If it was a normal person, they might have already lost their life.

Wei Xiao Bei felt Huang Kun’s pulse, and it had already weakened to the point that Huang Kun could breathe his last at any time.

Just like that, Wei Xiao Bei had no choice but to give Huang Kun five drops of Secondary Spring Water of Youth.

What he never imagined was that, as the spring water was dropped into Huang Kun’s mouth, it had frozen. Luckily, there was an air conditioner. Wei Xiao Bei moved Huang Kun’s head close to it and finally blew the water down Huang Kun’s throat.

With five drops of spring water, Wei Xiao Bei did not need to worry about Huang Kun’s life anymore.

However, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but drive away in the next moment.

As time passed by, the cold air coming from Huang Kun became more vigorous. Even the car seats had been covered in frost.

If he continued to stay in the parking lot, someone might notice that something was wrong. Moreover, as the temperature dropped, the car might not move anymore.

He immediately drove back to the dojo. When he had just reached the alley, the car spat out black smoke and stopped moving.

There was no doubt that under the continuous decrease in temperature, problems had occurred in the oil tank of his Volvo.

Wei Xiao Bei pushed open the door and looked outside. Luckily, it was still early in the morning, and there was no one in the alley. He picked up Huang Kun, closed the car doors, and fleed like a monkey towards the dojo. He had even forgotten to close the main doors.

After placing Huang Kun on the ground, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but rub his shoulders. Just this much effort had made his shoulders numb from the cold.

Being chilled with his current constitution showed how low Huang Kun’s body temperature was.

Soon, with Huang Kun as the center, the cold spread everywhere and continued to thicken.

Wei Xiao Bei might as well move the couch to the corridor, studying on his phone while waiting.

After more than twenty minutes, Wei Xiao Bei felt cold down his butt. When he looked, the entire practice ground had been covered in a layer of frost that had even reached the corridor.

This made Wei Xiao Bei a bit worried. If the frost continued to expand outwards, the problem would be huge.

Only an idiot would think that this was a normal phenomenon. Perhaps someone might soon knock on the dojo doors or climb over the wall to take a look at the situation.

Luckily, perhaps the Ice Hearts power had reached its limits, or perhaps Huang Kun still had a bit of his consciousness left to control the ice, the frosting had stopped below the wall.

However, the frosting in the practice ground did not weaken at all. Even when it was 8 PM when the sun had set, the practice ground remained ice-cold to the point that the frost was getting thicker.

After eating dinner and returning to the practice ground, he visually estimated that the thickness of the frost had reached fifty centimeters.

This was easy to see because the frost around Huang Kun had accumulated on his body. Huang Kun now appeared like a sleeping beauty frozen in ice.

Wei Xiao Bei was not worried about Huang Kun’s safety anymore since his heart was still beating even if it was only two beats per minute.

When it was midnight, the frost in the practice ground did not wane at all and continued to slowly accumulate.

Wei Xiao Bei frowned. He planned to enter the Dust World for the night and move towards the desert area to inspect the place close to the Fire Dragon and find the secret to becoming 4-Star.

However, after seeing Huang Kun’s appearance, he could not just leave him behind.

Wei Xiao Bei made a decision. He sat close to the practice grounds and looked at his phone. These few days, Wei Xiao Bei had found something else to study. Other than archaeology he was now looking at genetics.

After obtaining the Fledgling Life Altar, Wei Xiao Bei had a faint plan.

After all, if he wanted to train better creatures, he needed to learn more about them.

However, before Wei Xiao Bei sat down, a knocking sound came from the door.

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock.

It appears that the person outside was very excited.

Wei Xiao Bei walked over the frost-covered practice ground which would make his shoes slightly stuck. The heat from the sole of his shoes and the low temperature of the ice made it easy for them to stick together.

What’s more, according to Wei Xiao Bei’s judgment, the ice that covered the practice grounds was negative 50 degrees.

Before he walked to the main doors, Wei Xiao Bei used [Response Search] and smiled.

Just when I was wondering who was knocking on the door.

At this moment, Zhu Xin Yi was standing outside the door.

Wei Xiao Bei opened the doors and fragrance immediately pounced at him. A soft body hung on Wei Xiao Bei’s body, “Master, I missed you.”

“Okay okay. You have already grown big, how could you be like Huang Kun.”

Wei Xiao Bei berated and pulled down Zhu Xin Yi.

Having no choice, he did not know what had happened to her as she had never been so active before. It appears that she seemed to have changed as a person causing him to be unable to endure.

“Master, could it be that you did not miss me?”

At this moment, Zhu Xin Yi appears to have truly changed as a person as she did not let go of him.

“Girl, could you have caught a cold?”

Wei Xiao Bei extended his hand to her forehead.

Her master’s action had immediately made her sad as she got down. However, she was immediately startled, “OH, what happened here?”

There was no doubt that she had been startled by the practice ground covered in ice.

Wei Xiao Bei closed the doors and signaled her to walk with him until they reached in front of Huang Kun. Then he pointed at him to let her see.

“What happened to junior apprentice-brother? If I knew of this earlier, I would have returned faster.”

Zhu Xin Yi had thought that something bad happened to Huang Kun and panicked.

“Nothing is wrong. He is only a person in poor health who cannot handle something so strong as a tonic.”

At this moment, Wei Xiao Bei chuckled and explained the matter.

Hearing nothing bad happened to Huang Kun, Zhu Xin Yi sighed in relief. She was not envious of the benefits that Huang Kun had gained. She only thought of when he was going to wake up.

“Right. Girl, since you have returned, then I will temporarily leave this to you. I have some matters to attend to and will go to the Dust World.”

At this moment, Wei Xiao Bei became happy. With Zhu Xin Yi here, he did not have to worry about Huang Kun.

Naturally, before he left, he did not forget some matters and gave Zhu Xin Yi an Eye of Slaughter, an Eye of Terror, and an Eye of Desire.

Zhu Xin Yi became very interested in the gem-like eyes. She grabbed them and was unwilling to let go.

In her terms, this kind of crystal stone should be helpful to her special skill. She might be able to absorb the power inside, but it would need research.

Additionally, Wei Xiao Bei had also given her some fried tentacles. Among them, he gave her more of the kind that recovered stamina and mental strength. In total, there were eighty portions. After all, this kind of inferior rare-quality dish could be created by him without any problems at any time. As for the rare-quality congee, he had given her five portions.

Naturally, he also gave her ten drops of Secondary Spring Water of Youth in bottles. This was to be used to save Huang Kun’s life. If Huang Kun woke up without any problems, then they were hers.

In the past, Zhu Xin Yi would be very happy when her master would suddenly give her things, but today was strange as she was unhappy at her master’s departure.

Wei Xiao Bei naturally saw through this. However, he had only guessed this was because he was leaving when she had just returned.

This trip was different from before. This time, he was preparing to enter through his room.

After closing the doors, Zhu Xin Yi stood outside and became worried for Wei Xiao Bei.
