Chapter 329: Snow Field (1/2)

Alex encountered a few people but usually went in a different direction, so he didn't interact with them. Sometimes, a few of them followed him to steal his talisman, but he simply teleported behind and stole theirs instead before running away.

As he was walking forward, he started noticing slight whiteness on the leaves of the plant making the wall. He went close to it and checked, ”Frost?” he said in surprise.

The further he walked, the more snow there was. During intersections, there was usually a patch that had more frosts than the other one. Alex chose that and never encountered any dead ends.

Finally, he came across a small, but frozen land. ”So much ice,” he said in surprise. Snow was a very rare occurrence for him even in his home that was towards the north. There were a few mountains where it snowed, but they were far from his house.

”What do I do now?” he thought. The moment he moved and stepped into the frozen land, a gust of wind appeared and his face directly. He instinctively closed his eyes and very soon his eyes were shut from the snow.

He forcefully opened his eyes and removed the frost that had got it to shut. He needed to see to walk upfront, but the gust with the snow wasn't helping it.

He took a deep breath and moved his Qi until it enveloped his whole body and moved forward. The gust made ice stick to him, but they simply melted when they touched his hot Yang Qi.

Now, all that remained was for him to have a way to see where he was actually going on. 'Should I do it?” Alex thought. He was already doing it on small scale, but he didn't want to tip any of the staff off just in case.

'Argh, f*ck it,' Alex thought and sent out his Spiritual Sense in a 20 meters area horizontally. He acted like he was using his eyes to see, but really he just used his Spiritual sense.

'There's someone there,' Alex thought and walked towards the person. The man was trying to walk forward in the snow with near 0 visibility. With their Qi, no one had to worry about the snow, but visibility was still a problem.

PING

Suddenly, he heard something and looked back. However, he couldn't see anything. He didn't know what had happened, so he kept moving forward. After a while, another PING sounded.

”What's going on?” the man asked while turning back, but still couldn't see anything. In the end, he turned around and kept on walking.

PING

He heard it once more and wanted to turn around but he was suddenly pulled up and got out of the snowfield.

The staff who pulled him up looked at him and said, ” You have been disqualified for losing all of your talismans.”

PING PING PING

Alex walked around searching for people to steal their talismans off of. At some point, he stopped.

”What the hell am I doing?” these talismans barely take 10 seconds off and I am wasting a minute for this. He was lost in the allure of the talismans and forgot the main purpose of the competition.

He immediately started walking in the correct direction, when he sensed something.
