Chapter 701 -243: Battle of the Free Alliance! (A three-in-one chapter for the Alliance Hierarch, with added updates by Head Flying Snow, seeking monthly passes!)
In the void, that tiny ice crystal resembling a grain of sand was so small and unnoticeable near the massive Extreme Cold Staircase.
Even though there were wisps of cold fog swirling around the ice crystal that was around negative two hundred degrees Celsius, and water vapor was unconsciously condensing into frost, it still failed to catch Lin Su’s attention.
“Look, look!”
It wasn’t until Qiuqiu’s thoughts appeared again in Lin Su’s mind that he noticed the anomaly in the vacuum, guided by Qiuqiu.
With just one glance, surprise tinted Lin Su’s eyes.
Because aside from being pathetically small, that frost-misted ice crystal was almost indistinguishable from the form of the staircase itself.
It was only when Qiuqiu excitedly recounted how it had achieved this step that Lin Su slowly understood what his pet had just done.
Energy could neither appear out of nowhere nor vanish into thin air.
Even after the emergence of the Spirit Calamity, this fundamental law remained unaffected; it was simply expanded upon with the inclusion of the supernatural theoretical framework.
Molecules do not spontaneously decrease their heat and slow their movement.
But with the power of ice-based supernatural energy, this became possible.
Just moments ago, Qiuqiu had managed to manipulate ice energy on a microscopic level, achieving the near-impossible task of solidifying air molecules, and the direct result was that it created a pocket of negative two hundred degrees Celsius environment.
Such low temperatures were previously impossible with Qiuqiu’s ice energy.
Although this did not amount to a complete perception of the Rule Power of ice, it was undoubtedly a significant step in the process of perceiving the rules.
“Qiuqiu, you did very well,” Lin Su couldn’t help but encourage it through telepathy, then guided it to continue, “Next, what you need to do is to keep trying this process and simplify it in the process of becoming proficient.”
“Simplify?”
Qiuqiu did not fully understand what Lin Su meant.
“From now, controlling those restless little guys one by one, to controlling them in groups, until finally, with a thought, you control an entire area,” Lin Su encouraged. “Believe in yourself, you can definitely do it!”
“Then I’ll try again!”
Understanding now, Qiuqiu eagerly stirred its own power to attempt once more.
When Qiuqiu first tried to wield this power, it had been inefficient in its use and wasted a lot of it.
Just forming an ice crystal the size of a grain of sand exhausted its physical strength.
However, this place was a territory governed by the Rule Power of ice, where supernatural energy was so abundant it was startling; Qiuqiu took only a short breath before its energy returned, nearly fully revived.
So, following Lin Su’s training direction, Qiuqiu began the continuous process of condensing ice crystals.
…
The beginning is the hardest part.
After a whole day, Qiuqiu’s speed of condensing ice crystals had improved by two to three times, but it still took close to ten minutes to form a small grain-sized ice crystal.
At this rate, it was not enough to pass the first level of the staircase.
To break the ice casing by its own power and regain mobility would allow it to pass the first level and proceed to the second.
For that step, Qiuqiu needed a certain understanding of the Extreme Cold Rule, to counteract the Rule Power of the outside world with its own understanding and break free from external bonds.
Based on Lin Su and Qiuqiu’s estimations, it would take about three days to break through the first level of the staircase at their current pace.
After a day had passed, Lin Su was beginning to feel the onset of fatigue.
It was time to return to Blue Star.
“Qiuqiu, let’s stop for now and head back to Blue Star,” he looked up at Qiuqiu still striving on the staircase and communicated quickly through telepathy.
After a moment, Qiuqiu’s thought came through.
“Can I continue to stay here?”
Huh?
Lin Su blinked.
Without waiting for Lin Su to ask, Qiuqiu began to explain proactively.
“The training effect here is much better for me than on Blue Star, and this way I can ascend to the second level sooner. What originally would take three days, would only take two if I don’t return to Blue Star.”
Hearing Qiuqiu’s thoughts, Lin Su fell into contemplation.
He was awake for about sixteen hours of a day in one world, with the remaining eight for sleep.
So traveling between two worlds meant he stayed awake for thirty-two hours, not experiencing a full forty-eight hours.
If Qiuqiu chose to stay here for twenty-four hours, it would just miss out on eight hours compared to the norm, and considering the Extreme Cold Stairway’s benefits for Qiuqiu were incomparable to what Blue Star could offer, this training would actually be more beneficial.
The abundant supernatural energy around would also keep Qiuqiu’s strength and spirit at their peak.
The only issue was that then he would only have Ghost with him on Blue Star.
However, thinking about his upcoming schedule on Blue Star, Lin Su slowly set aside his last bit of concern.
It actually seems possible.
“Are you sure you want this?” Lin Su finally confirmed.
“Sure!” The response from Qiuqiu was resolutely determined.
As it was grasping the Rule Power of ice, Qiuqiu could feel that not only did the Extreme Cold Stairway share its element, but it also contained the Rule Power that it yearned for.
