Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

175: Chapter 127: Breakthrough Ideas for Cold Resistance Level 175: Chapter 127: Breakthrough Ideas for Cold Resistance Level Tong Xinglong’s explanation was rather redundant.

The moment Xia Hong saw the bright red bloodstain, he already had a rough idea.

Cold Beast Blood is typically a dark green.

Seeing a bloodstain as red as human blood was a first for Xia Hong.

“Is the blood of intermediate Cold Beasts red?”

With this suspicion, Xia Hong stared at the blood on the arrowhead for a long time, then impulsively reached out to touch it.

“Big brother!”

“Leader, be careful.”

Just having suffered from a mishap, Tong Xinglong and his brother quickly admonished him, as did Xia Chuan.

But Xia Hong just shook his head, not stopping, he proceeded to touch it.

Since hitting the Mouse King last night, at least thirty hours had passed, yet the blood on the arrowhead still remained distinctly liquid.

Sizzle…

A wisp of blue smoke rose from his fingertips; the intense burning pain shot through his mind, but Xia Hong’s hand did not flinch, and instead, his face showed immense excitement rather than fear.

“This burning sensation, it’s a lot like the feeling after eating Cold Beast Meat!”

That’s not right, it’s not just similar, it’s essentially a fortified version of eating Cold Beast Meat.

This burning sensation, this burning sensation, with…

After pondering for a moment, Xia Hong suddenly looked up and asked the three in front of him:

“Is it dark outside now?”

Xia Chuan promptly replied, “In a little while.”

Upon hearing this, Xia Hong immediately took the iron arrow in his hand and led the three of them out of the room, skirting around the hall to the door of the corridor.

The third floor had a three-meter-wide corridor reserved on all sides, separated from the inside by a door.

Opening this door in front would lead to the corridor.

Xia Hong carefully pulled the door open, leaving a small gap.

Whoosh…

Even though the gap was only fingertip-wide, the moment the light from outside came in, it brought a gust of strong wind, making a whooshing sound.

The chill in the sunlight was clearly visible, clashing with the warmth inside the wooden house, creating water stains in the illuminated areas, and the temperature around the three of them dropped noticeably.

“And this is within the radiation range of the Iron Refining Furnace.

If illuminated in other places, an ordinary person would unlikely last more than a few minutes and would be frozen into an ice sculpture…”

Despite having seen this cold sunlight before, such a scene defying common sense still felt incredibly bizarre to Xia Hong.

Calming his mind slightly, Xia Hong reached out and placed the finger, which had just been burned from touching the iron arrow, under the sunlight.

“This…”

“The wound is healed?”

“Is it regenerating?”

Xia Chuan and Tong Xinglong, along with his brother, were filled with surprise and amazement.

Underneath the sunlight, Xia Hong’s finger wound slowly healed.

Not only did it heal, but the skin appeared even healthier in tone than before!

“Hiss…”

Xia Hong drew in a sharp breath, swiftly retracting his finger, seeing it had healed, a thin layer of frost had formed, and then he turned to Xian Chuan and the two of Tong Xinglong’s brothers, his face breaking into a broad smile.

“By sheer accident, you guys stumbled onto a breakthrough approach for the Cold Resistance Level!”

Not being foolish, the trio quickly grasped the significance of Xia Hong’s actions.

“Big brother, are you saying that to break through the Cold Resistance Level, intermediate Cold Beast Blood is needed?”

“Precisely!”

The burning sensation he experienced just after touching the blood instantly brought Xia Hong back to the time before on the hillside, when the Golden-eyed Demon Sheep attacked, recalling the sensation when he encountered sunlight.

Moreover, this burning sensation is very similar to the heat generated inside after consuming Cold Beast Meat, but the feeling is much stronger, and it affects the outer layer of the body.

“The skin membrane; to break through the Cold Resistance Level, it seems one needs to use the blood of intermediate Cold Beasts to reshape the skin.

During this entire process, one’s Basic Strength should continue to increase, but the most crucial aspect is gaining the ability to function under sunlight.

The only uncertainty is the required amount…”

Feeling the subtle improvement around his fingers, Xia Hong was already ninety percent certain, the only question is how much blood from intermediate Cold Beasts would be necessary.

“Hiss…”

Turning to look, Xia Hong discovered it was Tong Xinglong mimicking his actions, placing his injured hand under the sunlight, only to retract it quickly, unable to endure the cold.

“Don’t try it recklessly, you’re still at Logging Realm, this cold light can’t be endured by you.

Just apply some Golden Sore Powder to the wound and let it heal naturally, handle your prey more cautiously next time, especially the intermediate Cold Beasts.”

“Yes, leader.”

Without saying much more, after helping deal with the bloodstains on the eight iron arrows, Xia Hong let the three of them leave.

Back in the room, Xia Hong took out his Yi Blade.

Pulling the Yi Blade out of its sheath, as expected, the green blood of the ordinary rodents had nearly dried to residue on the blade, while a small amount of bright red blood had gathered and flowed to the tip of the blade.

Last night, his Yi Blade was the first to injure the Mouse King.

Xia Hong carefully cleaned off all the blood from the Yi Blade, then sheathed it and sat down again to continue practicing.

Trying to practice using just a little bloodstain clearly wouldn’t work.

To hunt intermediate Cold Beasts, judging from the strength of that rodent, his current Hunting Ability is definitely insufficient.

Not to mention others, at the very least, he must first elevate his Basic Strength to the limit of thirty thousand pounds before considering it.

“This being the case, unless my breakthrough method is wrong, there’s no need to venture into the Arrow Bamboo Forest; the Pingxi Plain can be deferred.”

Xia Hong’s only motivation for breaching the Arrow Bamboo Forest path to the Pingxi Plain before was to visit the Hive Camp and search for a way to break through the Cold Resistance Level.

Now that this issue is resolved, there’s no need to venture further.
