Seeing the Snow Rat King escaping, Jia Chao was not in a hurry, he just turned into a bolt of lightning and swam quickly on the lake.
After moving on the lake for about ten seconds, he suddenly stopped.
There was only a "puff" sound, and a familiar figure appeared in the field of vision.
It was actually the King of Snow Rats, and he was currently under the ice.
And directly above it is a crossbow arrow less than two feet long.
Obviously the crossbow arrow did not actually hit it, but the Snow Rat King seemed to be pinned and unable to move.
Only then did Jia Chao slowly emerge from the lightning. He held a crossbow and loaded another crossbow arrow into it.
And there was some blood that had not yet dried on the arrowhead of the crossbow.
There was also a wound that was gradually healing in the palm of his hand.
He came to the crossbow arrow stuck on the ice and carefully looked at the ice in that area.
As he expected, there was a black shadow surrounded by black blood on the ice.
The poisonous blood actually imprisoned the black shadow, making it impossible for it to escape.
He switched the crossbow to his left hand, took out a dagger from the spiritual sea space in his right hand and dug into the ice.
After a while, a dark blue ice crystal appeared in his hand.
The shape of this ice crystal is very special, like a pyramid. It feels heavy in the hand, but it is not cold, and even feels warm.
As soon as Jia Chao dug it out of the lake, the king of snow rats suddenly disappeared.
This phenomenon once again confirmed Jia Chao's conjecture that the Snow Rat King was summoned by this ice crystal!
At this moment, Jia Chao particularly wanted to know what the Snow Rat King meant.
What is a 'puppet beast'?
What secret does the ice crystal in your hand hold?
Just when he closed his eyes and wanted to use his spiritual mind to sense the ice crystal, a ray of blue light suddenly entered his body.
At this moment, Jia Chao suddenly felt his soul move, and he followed the blue light into the spiritual sea.
The speed of the blue light in the spiritual sea was much slower than that in the icy lake outside, and Jia Chao's soul caught it effortlessly.
I saw that the blue light showed its original shape, no different from the blue ice crystal.
It's just that it's more compact now, like a piece of chocolate.
Just when Jia Chao was wondering what it was, Bingniu and Sister Pao appeared in front of him.
"Master Ah Chao, where did you find this residual ice elemental spirit?" Bing Niu wanted to take the blue ice crystal from Jia Chao's hand as soon as she came up.
Jia Chao shrank his hand, unwilling to give it to her.
Seeing him like this, Sister Pao persuaded him: "Achao, just give it to her, this residual spirit will be useful to her!"
Jia Chao shook his head and said: "I heard that people with elemental spirits in the spiritual sea will go crazy. Is it true?"
Sister Pao looked at him silently, with a somewhat unhappy look on her face, and drove Jia Chao out of the Linghai with a wave of her hand.
Jia Chao opened his eyes suddenly and found that the remaining ice element spirit caught by his soul returned to the blue ice crystal in his hand.
He did not hesitate, and immediately used the fusion method among the seven methods of repairing Yuan, and began to fuse the power of ice elements he possessed.
Soon, the remaining spirit in the blue ice crystal was absorbed by him.
When the remaining spirit completely disappeared, the blue ice crystal in his hand turned into an ordinary ice cube.
Instead of the dark blue, it became gray and white, and there was no longer any warmth inside.
Immediately afterwards, Jia Chao had some more information in his mind.
This is about the memory of the [Ice and Snow Puppet Beast]. Through the power of ice and snow, the flesh and blood that has lost its soul can be energized.
To put it simply, when there is ice and snow, animal corpses can be transformed into ice and snow puppet beasts.
It turns out that this is the origin of snow rats!
This unexpected harvest surprised Jia Chao, which meant that he would have a summoning skill!
Just when Jia Chao was excited, Bingniu in Linghai was also excited.
She happily looked at the changes in her body in front of an ice crystal mirror, and said to Sister Pao:
"Master, he is so powerful! He has even mastered the inheritance of repairing elemental spirits!"
Sister Pao said calmly: "What's the point? He can still let me condense my spirit body again without any inheritance!"
"Ah?" Bingniu turned her head and looked at Sister Pao with an expression of disbelief, "Were you just a residual spirit back then?"
Sister Pao nodded, "I was just a remnant spirit that had lost its self-awareness. I don't know what method he used to feed me many undead spirits, so that I gradually recovered!"
Bingniu: "..."
At this moment, Jia Chao didn't know what was happening in his spiritual sea.
He took out the natural lodestone he brought from the tribe, and then rubbed the dagger against the lodestone a few times.
Soon, a simple compass was ready.
Jia Chao does not expect that this world will also have a magnetic field of north and south poles, but judging from the state of the simple compass, this thing works!
Because the tip of the dagger is always pointing in a certain direction.
He identified it a little bit, and then walked straight in the direction that might be south.
Soon, he crossed over the ice forest of jade trees and flowers and came to the outside world.
After coming out, he saw two mountains in the distance and the frozen source of the Baimu River in the middle. Only then did Jia Chao figure out where he was.
What surprised him was that there were still many snow rats outside.
It's just that those snow rats have become very calm and not very aggressive, but they still hit people with snowballs!
This time, Jia Chao didn't give them a chance to attack him. He raised his hand and shot a snow rat with one arrow.
Suddenly someone of the same kind was killed, and the smell of blood angered several snow rats nearby.
Just when they were about to attack Jia Chao, the dead snow rat suddenly came to life.
It's just that it's gotten a little bigger, and there's an icy aura about it.
The originally irritable snow rats were silent when they saw this, and cowered as if they were suppressed.
Jia Chao was in a great mood when he saw this. He didn't expect that it would be so easy to summon the puppet beast with the power of the ice element. It was almost as difficult as condensing an ice sword.
If so, this skill is a magical skill!
With the puppet snow rat clearing the way, the snow rats along the way no longer dared to throw snowballs at Jia Chao.
Jia Chao also followed the example of the Xia Yun brothers and sisters and made the puppet snow rat his own sled beast.
What surprised Jia Chao was that in the ice and snow, this puppet snow rat did not consume his soul power at all.
It seems that it has some kind of talent to obtain energy from the surrounding cold environment, and it can always exist as long as there is ice and snow around it.
After understanding this principle, Jia Chao, who was sitting comfortably on his skateboard, suddenly had an idea.
If you use these guys to work, it will be free labor!
Wouldn't it be nice to let them grind iron, filter salt, etc.?
Thinking of this, Jia Chao saw that the number of snow rats around him was gradually decreasing, so he kidnapped one and put it on his skateboard.
The kidnapped Snow Rat was obviously not mentally prepared. It looked at Jia Chao in bewilderment, its little eyes rolling.
Jia Chao grinned, and a cold air came out of his palm, freezing it into a popsicle in an instant.
The rest of the journey went very smoothly, and he soon returned to the Baimu tribe.
It was only evening when he left here, and by the time he returned, it was already late at night.
Jia Chao left the puppet snow rat in the nearby snow, letting it blend with the ice and snow outside, and then walked towards the Baimu tribe.
At this time, the entire Baimu tribe was shrouded in a strange layer of white mist, and they could not see their fingers.
Even if Jia Chao has night vision, his effective field of vision here does not exceed fifty meters.
There are no caves in the Baimu tribe's camp, but there are many giant trees that look like mushrooms.
A circle of wooden sticks is inserted around the giant tree, and it becomes a house, which can accommodate five or six people to sleep and rest inside.
Under the leadership of the night watchman at the entrance of the tribe, Jia Chao finally found the five Xia Yun brothers and sisters.
They were not resting at this moment, but instead chatting around a campfire.
To Jia Chao's surprise, the woman named Bai Zhi was also here.
She sat very close to Dongyue, and their relationship seemed a bit unusual.
Seeing Jia Chao coming back, Bai Zhi showed a surprised look.
Not to mention her, even the four Dongyue brothers all had doubtful expressions on their faces.
The only one who is happy about Jia Chao's return is the brainless Xia Yun.
She rushed to Jia Chao and took the big popsicle from Jia Chao's hand.
"Wow! Chao, you really caught the snow rat!"
Jia Chao responded with a faint smile, but something gradually became clear in his heart.
It seems that the task of catching snow rats was a trap from the beginning.
Who would harm themselves?
Of course they are Xia Yun’s four brothers!
Even though their brother-in-law and brother-in-law were screaming happily, they actually wanted to kill themselves.
He should have known this when he saw the five sets of cups on the display shelf in Xia Yun Cave.
How could daughters and sisters allow a brat to get close to their white swan?
These guys are probably trying to kill themselves!
Thinking of this, Jia Chao's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.
You must not let Bai Zhi and Dongyue go easily, it's too abominable!
At this time, Bai Zhi took the initiative to come over. She took the snow rat that was frozen into a popsicle in Xia Yun's hand, looked at it carefully, and found that Jia Chao really didn't hurt it.
Jia Chao silently activated his soul power to thaw the snow rat.
The snow rat recovered from the frozen state, rolled its little eyes, and escaped from Bai Zhi's grasp with a sudden jerk.
It puffed up its cheeks and was about to attack Xia Yun, who was closest to it. At this moment, a wisp of white mist suddenly spread from the outside, making it instantly sluggish.
"This little thing is quite powerful in combat!" Dongyue smiled and came closer, grabbed the sluggish snow rat and threw it to Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi received the snow rat, and without saying a word, he took out a bone knife and killed the snow rat.
Blood splashed all over her face, but this thin woman's face was full of intoxication at the moment.
She took out another short spear and stood it on the ground, then stuck the snow rat directly on the spear.
The next step is to skillfully peel, cut and debone the meat.
Seeing this smooth and smooth operation, Jia Chao's anus tightened, and all the dissatisfaction he had originally turned into bitter water and swallowed it in his stomach.
Who is this!
Didn’t it mean that He Ling didn’t like killing?
Judging from the cooking techniques, it’s worse than even the beef cook!
Soon, a chubby and cute snow rat the size of a husky turned into a pile of meat and a too-clean skeleton.
Bai Zhi respectfully held up the complete snow rat head with the whole piece of skin attached, and then came to Jia Chao.
"Chief Achao, please take this!"
"Ah?" Jia Chao looked at the snow rat's head, which was still dripping with blood, and his whole body felt numb.
When he finally reluctantly took over the snow rat's head, Bai Zhi started dancing in front of him.
Judging from the movements, it should be some kind of soul worship dance.
Although Jia Chao learned how to perform the soul-sacrifice dance from Le Guo, he never danced it.
Because he thinks this kind of dance is super embarrassing, and he can level up without dancing anyway.
The most important thing is that he hasn't hunted recently.
Now watching the stick insect-like white branches perform this dance, a strange feeling arises spontaneously.
From this dance, he seemed to see the transmission of vitality.
At this moment, Bai Zhi began to sing:
“The two mountains are connected by water.
He has white eyes, which are divine eyes.
Green hills and clear water.
The five-color divine light protects my home. "
After she finished singing this strange song, the white mist that originally filled the entire tribe suddenly began to fade.
This sudden change made everyone present look solemn, especially Bai Zhi who had just finished the soul worship dance.
She actually crawled on the ground and said to Jia Chao:
"Thank you, distinguished Chief Achao! You will always be our friend of the Baimu Tribe!"
This sudden reversal caught Jia Chao off guard.
He was originally angry because Bai Zhi helped Dongyue and the others trick him into catching snow rats, but suddenly he had no reason to get angry.
what's the situation?
I caught a snow rat, and my favorability level was actually maxed out?
