“Holy moi boch! he can bring down an entire brigade?”

Paul asked stupidly, his mouth still wide open.

As a powerful Overlord of the Dark World, Paul had frequented the battle fields in the Middle East and Northern Africa, so he knew the deadliness of modern military’s firepower first hand.

He would think twice even to face against a hundred strong squad much less a fully armed brigade of four thousand strong. Neither could he wrap his mind around Chen Fan’s striking down three F-15 fighter jets.

“Do you believe me now?” Yang Qinhu asked with a grin.

Paul nodded vigorously. Russians could be arrogant but they were fiercely loyal once you get to know them. Many of them were battle-hardened warriors who only obey the order of the strongest. Because of their bravado and defiance, they were often called the Warrior Race among netizens in China.

“Paul, we are heading north deep into the tundra to find a valley.”

After everyone sat down around the table, Yang Qinhu unfurled a map on the table and said.

“Why are there suddenly so many people who want to go to the Icewolf Valley?” Paul scratched his head and murmured to himself.

“Someone else had asked you about it as well?” Yang Qinhu asked urgently.

“Yes, quite a few of them. Some from Europe, some from America and even a few from the Middle East. They are disguised as tourists, but this old nose can smell the blood on their hands from miles away. Some of them are our old friends.” Paul said casually.

Yang Qinhu gave Chen Fan a glance and asked hesitantly.

“Senior Master, it seems that the cat is out of the bag. What should we do?”

“It doesn’t matter, the valley is a few kilometers deep, not even a helicopter can get down there. Plus, I doubt they have the exact location of the pond, so they might have to spend a lot of time searching for it. Don’t worry, we will be fine.” Chen Fan said lightly.

Not only Yang Qinhu nodded at Chen Fan’s rea.s.surance, but also Paul.

Chen Fan was the most powerful man in the Dark World, so of course, the other treasure seekers were no match against him.

“We should head out right away, just in case.”

Chen Fan rose to his feet.

Although Paul was not going with them, he had offered his help by sending a few guides and a couple of his bodyguards to join their trip. When they finally embarked on their journey to the frozen tundra, their ranks had swelled to a dozen or so.

They headed out of the city in a convoy of snowmobiles. It wasn’t long before they reached the barren wasteland. In the beginning, there was a small village every few dozen kilometers, but as they went further north, the sight of small villages became less frequent.

Chen Fan sat on the snowmobile in the pa.s.senger seat and cultivated.

He was surprised to find out that Spirit Qi was much more abundant in the lifeless tundra than in the city. The concentration of Spirit Qi on the tundra had reached almost half of the average Qi concentration on other planets. Most of the Spirit Qi here was of ice and water elements which would be good for the spells of the same element but would greatly hinder that of fire and wood element.

“It makes sense now why the Fruit of Embryonic Essence would appear here.” Chen Fan thought to himself with his eyes closed.

The Fruit of Embryonic Essence was a superior-grade Spirit Fruit. Chen Fan was quite astonished to find out that it still existed on earth. Once he consumed the Fruit of Embryonic Essence, he would be lifted to the late-stage of Ethereal Enlightenment right away.

Such was the miraculous effect of the Superior-grade Spirit Fruit.

“Senior Master Chen Fan, we have been on the road for more than ten days and had ventured eight hundred kilometers north of where we started. The valley must be near.” Yang Qinhu proud of the map unfurled it and said.

“The only place for resting was a small hamlet a hundred kilometer away from us. That’s where w.a.n.g Baoguo got their supplies. Shall we stop by there to restock our supply and stretch our legs?”

“Oh? There is a hamlet?”

The revelation had caught Chen Fan’s attention.

He was able to spot a few villages on the first few days of his journey and by now, he hadn’t seen even the slightest human activity for four days. So Chen Fan was taken aback after he heard that there was a settlement this far into the tundra.

“It had been there even when my grandpa was still a babe. They named the settlement ‘Snow wolf’” The guide named “Old Man Logan” said in Russian.

“They say that people in that village can commune with the wolf spirit and control wolf packs. The elders told us to stay away from there, saying it’s a village filled with demons.”

“Snow wolf?”

Chen Fan nodded as he murmured to himself.

Most ancient settlements in the middle of nowhere had some mojo attached to the place, the village of snow wolf must be no exception. Otherwise, no one could have survived in such a harsh environment.

“Let’s head straight to the valley, we have no time to waste.” Chen Fan decided.

Yang Qinhu nodded.

After Chen Fan was gone, Paul registered that something significant was happening. Why were there so many visitors to the city of Yakutsk of late? Worse, almost all of them reeked with the smell of the Dark World.

“Whatever, it’s none of my business. I’ll hit the bar and relax a bit.” Paul shook his head and sauntered toward the best bar in the town. As soon as he entered the bar, the bartender poured him a cup of his favorite drink: rum and vodka.
