Adapting to extreme darkness after days without light, Wu Bolin’s heightened vision catches faint specks of light beneath the Antarctic ice. Driven by a century-old legend of powerful cultivators and the possibility of the “Gate of Ascension,” he summons his sword to carve a path downwards, confident in his isolation.
Hero of heart The amazing son in law complete
Chapter 7470
While spending a significant amount of time in a very dark environment will not improve a personās vision, it will certainly increase their sensitivity to light by hundreds or even tens of thousands of times.
Wu Bolin was in this situation. The lack of aurora and moonlight for days made him extremely irritable, but it also allowed his eyes to gradually adapt to the extreme darkness. Thatās why he was able to see the faint specks of light below when he was almost at his witsā end.
If the aurora borealis had always been there, constantly filtering through the ice and emitting its faint light, he would never have noticed the barely visible glow beneath him.
After confirming that it was light and not his imagination, he suddenly felt a surge of joy.
Scientists told him that it was impossible for there to be any traces of humans left under the Antarctic ice sheet, but a story he had heard 100 years ago said that before the end of the Dharma era, there must have been many extremely powerful cultivators in the world, and with their supernatural powers, they must have been able to build an underground city in Antarctica.
So, he couldnāt help but ask himself, āCould the dots of light below be related to the Gate of Ascension?!ā
With that thought in mind, he immediately summoned his miniature sword, swung it with one hand, and it instantly transformed into a long sword. He then broke through the ice sealing the top of the ice cave and began using spiritual energy as propulsion to make the flying sword dig deeper into the ice layer below. To prevent the ice crystal fragments it dug out from clogging the ice cave, he immediately used spiritual energy to spray the ice fragments onto the ground.
If someone were at the cave entrance, they would see the ice cave seem to have come to life, spewing out ice shards furiously. Fortunately, Wu Bolin had indeed run quite far while hiding from the Americans; within a radius of hundreds of kilometers, he was practically the only person left alive.
This is primarily because it is currently located in the heart of Antarctica, a relatively insignificant location for research stations. Most Antarctic research stations are located on peninsulas for ease of navigation. The remainder are located primarily along the coasts of continental shelves, also for ease of navigation and transportation. Only a few, such as the United Statesā South Pole research station, are specifically built near the South Pole. In other words, the current extent of human activity in Antarctica is a large circle with a small dot in the center. Apart from the surrounding areas and the central South Pole, most of the rest of the region is uninhabited.
