Bab 298: The Dark Pass

The remaining journey to the Celestial Springs was no easy feat. As they delved further into the deeper parts of Xue Ling Ridge, the darker parts the beasts usually avoided, the temperatures only plummeted further.

The cold began to gnaw at Chi Cheng's previously injured limbs, but with Han Xuelian's arms secured around him from behind, he was fortunate he wouldn't freeze to death.

The terrain was much more rocky and difficult to tread through as they were passing between two ridges, a dangerous mountain pass infamous for the avalanches and accidents that occurred in its space.

Chi Cheng had to fight back the harshness of the rough winds biting the corners of his eyes, raising an arm above his forehead to prevent any snowflakes from entering his eyes.

However, it didn't matter to him if the weather conditions were unbearable. So long as the Ice Sect Disciples were accustomed to such cold extremities and it posed no threat to them, he was relieved.
