Chapter 1953 412: White Stuff
In this World of All Things, what can the major figures of the Mysterious Immortal Fifth Realm not resist? Isn't this too terrifying?
This is an ominous land, surely none of them would choose this place.
However, if there is no choice, Lin Yifan would choose it. After all, there's a saying: The most dangerous place is often the safest.
Similarly, the most dangerous place might also be where the Heart Moon Fox is easiest to find.
After reviewing the four marked points, the four convened at the midpoint to discuss how to fairly select these points.
Lin Yifan wanted to keep things simple, as the probabilities of the Heart Moon Fox appearing at the marked points were only estimates, without concrete evidence; in reality, the chances might be the same, depending on one's luck.
Thus, he generously said, "You all choose first, to avoid claims later of me being unfair."
"You said it, don't regret it." Princess Qingyan was extremely happy.
She had been prepared to argue with Lin Yifan for a few hours, but to her surprise, he was so understanding, making her unreserved.
"I will take the third marked point."
"Girl, this is a dangerous place, let me take it instead," the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom said caringly.
"Whatever."
Princess Qingyan gladly agreed, knowing they were both in the same boat, sharing no distinction.
"Elder, you go first!" Lin Yifan gestured respectfully to Immortal Bai Ruo.
Princess Qingyan couldn't stand it, questioning, "Hey, hey, hey, weren't we supposed to choose first?"
"My intention was for you to choose the first, then us, and then back to you; understand?" Lin Yifan replied.
"I don't care, you said we choose first, so no backing out."
Princess Qingyan pouted, unwavering in argument.
"Alright, alright, you choose, you choose."
Lin Yifan was genuinely impressed; he had never seen such a self-serving woman.
He argued logically, not wanting to concern himself with trivial matters, allowing Princess Qingyan to joyfully pick the next location.
"I'll take the first marked point too, the remaining two you can sort out yourselves."
Lin Yifan and Immortal Bai Ruo exchanged a glance, utterly speechless.
They knew the other party would select the two places with a high probability of encountering the Heart Moon Fox; if it were them, they would do the same.
The two remaining locations: one lacked many hiding spots, the other was a land of ominous signs, both hard to divide.
However, neither wanted to go to the ominous land, leaving both slightly troubled.
After a lengthy silence, Immortal Bai Ruo sighed and said, "I'll take the fourth marked point."
"Elder, you've helped me a lot, this isn't necessary anymore, let me handle it." Lin Yifan responded awkwardly.
"How could that be? That's an ominous land, should you encounter something sinister, you'd be in trouble."
"Wouldn't it be the same for you?"
"At least I have powerful mana for protection, capable of dodging the first wave of attacks, you best not join this chaos." Immortal Bai Ruo replied.
Thinking it over, Lin Yifan felt this was a more suitable plan, thus said, "Alright! Let's go with that."
Princess Qingyan felt overjoyed.
This was an outcome she never anticipated, Lin Yifan standing guard in the most desolate land; this Heart Moon Pearl seemed ensured.
With the locations selected, the four took their positions.
At the second marked point, Lin Yifan hid behind a somewhat large rock, but still couldn't conceal his entire body, even while lying down.
The place beneath the snowfalls of Snow Moon Mountain had sparse snow, the climate extremely cold, fierce winds blowing.
Even Lin Yifan, a High Immortal Fourth Realm Cultivator, shivered uncontrollably.
Being in such a place was detrimental to health, and a waste of time, leaving Lin Yifan contemplating giving up.
However, the Heart Moon Fox might very well be found here, he hoped the Heart Moon Fox wouldn't notice him hiding, otherwise, no matter how long he waited, it would be in vain.
"Woo woo!"
Cold wind howled, relentlessly rushing forth, Lin Yifan curled up behind a small stone, quietly waiting for the Heart Moon Fox to come forward.
Elsewhere, the other three found their hiding spots.
Their environments were far better than Lin Yifan's, at least without the assault of wind and snow.
Princess Qingyan continued to inwardly laugh, the thought of Lin Yifan's pitiful snow-covered appearance was amusing.
"Bastard, let's see if you dare to be blindly generous again, hehe!"
As time slowly passed, three days later, none had obtained the Heart Moon Pearl, leading to restlessness and doubt.
The four marked points dated back thousands of years, likely outdated. Perhaps the Heart Moon Fox had left entirely.
"Should we leave, or have a new plan?"
All four were torn between two options, deeply conflicted.
But considering they had waited for so long, the possibility of the Heart Moon Fox appearing soon remained; would they miss a golden opportunity and waste three days' effort?
Thus, three chose to wait a while longer.
The one who didn't was Lin Yifan.
Unable to endure the extreme cold waiting game any longer, he trekked to Snow Moon Lake for a swap with Immortal Bai Ruo.
At Snow Moon Lake, Immortal Bai Ruo, watching a creature older than himself emerge from the forest, grew vigilant.
Sometimes unsavory beings looked like this, prompting caution.
"Elder! Elder!"
Lin Yifan called weakly, shivering intensely.
"Is it that kid?"
Hearing Lin Yifan's voice, Immortal Bai Ruo was astonished.
However, unsavory beings could impersonate others, keeping him cautious.
"Are you human or ghost? Truly that young brother Lei?"
"Elder, it's indeed me, have you ever seen a ghost looking like this?" Lin Yifan replied.
"Unsavory beings may very well look like this." Immortal Bai Ruo explained.
"Alright!"
Lin Yifan said no more, offering substantial proof to confirm his identity.
When a Seven-Colored Immortal Sword appeared shining in Lin Yifan's hand, radiantly dazzling, Immortal Bai Ruo finally relaxed, choosing to trust Lin Yifan.
Yet seeing Lin Yifan's condition made him curious, "Why have you become like this? You look older than I do!"
This "aging" referred to hair whiter than his own, a goatee whiter, eyebrows whiter, the clothes whiter.
Besides, he recalled Lin Yifan being clean-shaven, yet now possessed a goatee?
"Isn't it the result of being battered by wind and snow? You can't imagine the snowstorm I endured atop that mountain."
Recalling these last three days, Lin Yifan felt fatigued, thoroughly discouraged.
