"Hundred Transformations Divine Artifact, slash!"
With a flourish of his sword, Qin Xuan channeled his spiritual energy and swung the Hundred Transformations Divine Artifact from left to right.
With a deafening roar, the previously flat plain was instantly gouged out, creating a pit tens of meters in radius and dozens of feet deep.
Layers of white snow flew up from the ground and then fell back down, accompanied by countless ice shards.
However, even with this level of destructive power, Qin Xuan's brow furrowed slightly.
It wasn't that the effect was too good, but rather too poor.
A Golden Core cultivator, while moving mountains and filling seas might be an exaggeration, their true destructive power was absolutely enough to level a small mountain tens of meters high.
Especially since Qin Xuan's spiritual energy was now liquefied, his strength had already reached the late Golden Core stage.
A mountain hundreds of meters tall might not withstand two blows from him.
Yet, this destructive force, when applied to the ice layer, only managed to create a pit dozens of meters deep.
How high was the toughness of this ice layer?
If he relied solely on himself and his sword to find Kunlun, how long would it take?
Just as Qin Xuan was frowning, contemplating how long he could try before giving up, a snowmobile with a star-spangled banner suddenly appeared in his sight.
The American vehicle drove closer and closer, soon arriving before Qin Xuan.
"Kid, did your Dragon Country's scientific expedition team make this pit?"
"The Cyan Blue Star people are coming, and you still haven't left?"
"Don't tell me your country was so scared that they abandoned you!"
"Hahahaha!"
The snowmobile stopped, and a blond, blue-eyed American man stepped out.
To Qin Xuan's surprise, he wasn't wearing the heavy thermal clothing like the Dragon Country's scientific expedition team.
On the contrary, the man was only wearing a thin jacket, and his head and hands were covered with very light gloves and a hat.
No matter how one looked at it, he seemed more like he was here for a trip to Antarctica rather than work.
And as the inner voice from the man's work clothes reached him, Qin Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
Ultra-thin temperature-controlled suit: This Blue Star is too weak; even its coldest regions are not half as cold as Cyan Blue Star.
Things from Cyan Blue Star had already appeared on the Antarctic expedition team.
One could imagine how deep the cooperation between the United States and Cyan Blue Star was.
It was just unknown how long this alliance between the United States and Cyan Blue Star would last.
If the day came when the United States was wiped out, what expression would that old fellow Davis have?
"Hey! I'm talking to you!"
Seeing Qin Xuan's lack of reaction, the American who had been mocking him felt his pride wounded.
He reached out and forcefully pushed Qin Xuan's shoulder, only to have his wrist grabbed by Qin Xuan and twisted upwards.
"Tell me, what has your United States discovered in Antarctica?"
Snapping back to reality, Qin Xuan's lips curved slightly, and he directly inquired about America's research in Antarctica.
As everyone knew, Antarctica was a very mysterious and crucial region on Blue Star, which was why all the countries in the world had signed an agreement for joint development and research.
With the impending war, the Dragon Country's government had to withdraw its scientific research personnel from the Antarctic research stations for safety reasons.
However, as a partner country of Cyan Blue Star, the United States obviously had no such concerns.
Moreover, judging from the equipment used by this American, Cyan Blue Star seemed to have provided a lot of resources to allow the United States to conduct more in-depth research.
Since that was the case, Qin Xuan naturally wanted to gather some information from the other party to see if it would be useful to him.
"Ah! Be gentle! My hand is going to break!" Restrained by Qin Xuan, the American cried out in pain.
However, Qin Xuan paid no attention to his loud screams and coldly said, "Answer my question."
"Okay, okay!"
Seeing that Qin Xuan was unmoved by his pleas, the American knew he had encountered a tough character.
A wise man knows when to yield.
He wasn't a hero, but he wasn't stupid either.
He immediately confessed that his research team had used Cyan Blue Star technology to detect the landforms beneath the ice layer.
This was truly a case of "when you're tired, someone brings you a pillow!"
Qin Xuan immediately asked him for detailed information about the landforms.
And he finally learned the true location of Mount Kunlun from this American.
Three thousand kilometers north of the South Pole, near 26.8 degrees East longitude.
Although this location seemed precise, Qin Xuan clearly couldn't reach it with his own abilities.
Therefore, he naturally got into the American's snowmobile and asked him to turn on the navigation to take him there. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Upon arriving at his destination, he also threatened and tempted the other party.
"Now, I will start digging down from this location."
"If I dig up to the mountaintop you mentioned, I'll return your vehicle, and I'll let you go free."
"But if I can't dig it up... you'll know the consequences."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xuan turned and walked away towards the summit of Mount Kunlun, dozens of meters away.
Seeing this, the American didn't say a word and directly pulled out a gleaming M1911 pistol from his vehicle and aimed it at Qin Xuan.
"You damn Dragon Countryman, don't think you can bully me just because you know kung fu."
"Today, I'll show you the strength of us Americans!"
Boom!
Before he could finish speaking, the American was startled by a deafening roar and dropped his gun.
Looking up, he saw that in front of Qin Xuan, there was another deep pit, just as wide as the previous one.
Oh, my God!
So the previous pit wasn't made by some scientific equipment, but by this Dragon Countryman?
This, this is still human?
If he had used this move on me earlier, I probably wouldn't even have a speck of bone left!
His legs went weak, and the American collapsed onto the ground with a thud.
Qin Xuan, however, was full of excitement as he walked back from the pit.
"What's wrong?"
"Why are you sitting in the snow?"
The American's voice trembled, and he just shook his head repeatedly.
"No, nothing."
"I was a bit tired from driving just now, so I'm sitting down to rest a bit..."
Qin Xuan chuckled, "Heh, it's still you Americans who know how to enjoy yourselves."
"Alright, you have one minute to get out of my sight."
"If you can't do that, then you won't be leaving today."
"Starting the countdown, 60, 59..."
Upon hearing that Qin Xuan was willing to let him go, the American was stunned for a moment.
Then, without a word, he jumped into the snowmobile and stepped on the accelerator.
Qin Xuan watched the back of the snowmobile and couldn't help but let out a soft hum.
Although this American had drawn his gun and tried to ambush him from behind,
But considering that he had provided accurate intelligence, he would be magnanimous and spare the guy's life.
Even though the war was imminent, his good feelings towards Americans had dropped to freezing point.
But this was clearly not a reason for him to kill indiscriminately.
"Alright, let's continue digging from here!"
Seeing the outline of the mountain emerging from the ice layer, Qin Xuan immediately picked up the Hundred Transformations Divine Artifact and swung his sword again.
However, this time, his force was significantly reduced.
After all, the location had been confirmed, and he only needed to gradually chip away, clearing a passage through the surrounding ice.
If he used too much force and triggered some mechanism of the immortal mountain, it would truly be a case of losing more than he gained.
