At this moment.
Yang Fan entered an extremely mystical state.
Or rather—an epiphany.
He was utterly captivated by the patterns on the phone screen, involuntarily uttering various exclamations.
"So ingenious!"
"Truly amazing!"
"This technique is absolutely perfect!"
Great Xia dog, Wang Zai, stared at his master with a pair of bewildered dog eyes, full of confusion.
However, he understood that his master was engaged in something very important and it was best not to disturb him.
Wang Zai tiptoed to a nearby branch, carefully biting it.
He then softly trotted down the stairs, threw the branch into a trash can on the first floor, and returned to the second floor, lying down in a corner, staring at his master without blinking.
After a long time.
Wang Zai felt a bit sleepy, yawned, and his dog eyes started to become drowsy.
As a competent guardian dog, he hadn't stopped working hard from morning until now.
So he truly was tired at this moment.
Quickly.
Wang Zai fell into a state of drowsiness.
Unsure of how much time passed.
He suddenly heard a loud roar.
"Woo!"
It sounded like a monster's growl.
Or like the roaring of a furious wind.
Wang Zai was startled, his dog eyes immediately opened wide.
The next moment.
His dog eyes widened hugely, his dog mouth slightly agape.
This expression completely embodied what it meant to be "stunned as a stupid dog."
What charged into Wang Zai's sight was a vast, boundless icefield.
The icefield seemed to stretch endlessly, with no end in sight.
Countless snowflakes were drifting down from the gray sky, mixed inexplicably with many sharp ice needles.
"Bang! Bang!"
Several ice needles fell from the sky, landing right in front of Wang Zai.
He shivered a bit and quickly retreated a few steps.
Wang Zai looked around, seeing a spectacle unimaginable for any dog.
Enormous ice pillars, measured in kilometers in diameter, stood majestically between heaven and earth, reaching both skyward and earthbound.
Looking up from the icefield, the tops of the ice pillars couldn't be seen, only their bases disappearing into the swirling snow above.
Around each ice pillar, many faint white shadows danced around.
Their forms continuously changed, sometimes gathering together, then scattering once more.
"Woof?!"
Wang Zai was bewildered.
Who am I really?
Where am I now?
After a few seconds.
A white shadow seemed to notice Wang Zai's presence, suddenly transforming into an arrow loosed from a bow, rapidly flying over.
This Great Xia dog immediately noticed the white shadow's movement.
"Howl~"
Wang Zai let out a yelp, his whole body trembling a few times, his dog tail dropping down in fright.
Because the moment he saw the white shadow, he sensed an unprecedentedly intense feeling of death's pressure.
I'm doomed!
This dog is going to meet its end!
Just then.
A familiar voice suddenly resonated by his ear.
"Did you see it too?"
It was his master's voice.
Then.
The white, vast world froze and then disappeared like smoke and clouds.
The view of the living room returned.
The master was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking over with a face full of smiles.
The electric heater nearby was still radiating a warm and cozy feeling.
Wang Zai was stunned and then yelped, charging directly towards his master, using his two front paws to hug his master's leg.
That was truly terrifying for the dog!
Yang Fan was both amused and at a loss.
He pet the dog's head, comforting him: "It was just an illusion earlier, everything is fine now."
After a good half a minute of fussing.
Wang Zai finally felt enough security to let go of his leg.
Yang Fan scratched Wang Zai's chin, explaining: "Earlier, I entered a state of epiphany, and understood many things from the cold mist."
He pointed outside the window at the whiteness, his tone with a trace of excitement: "I just discovered that there's a portal hidden within the mist."
Wang Zai tilted his head, barked once: "Woof?"
He was asking: Is the other side of the portal the Primordial World?
This dog's mind was not dull.
He had already understood that the reason the cold mist appeared in Linjiang City was likely due to the power of a location in the Primordial World seeping through.
Yang Fan nodded: "That's right! What you saw earlier is a place called 'Celestial Pillar Icefield.'"
"Woof!"
Wang Zai suddenly realized.
He understood that the gigantic ice pillars he saw were the source of the name "Celestial Pillar Icefield."
"Woof?"
Wang Zai asked a question.
Yang Fan shook his head: "I don't know why such huge ice pillars appeared either, there are too many unknowns in the Primordial World."
Wang Zai wagged his tail, not pursuing further questions.
Yang Fan gently pet the dog's head again and began to check his superpower.
〖Frost〗: Activated, Low grade Mental Superpower, current Evolution Level is 58%.
This power had been activated long ago.
After months of training, the Evolution Level had only increased by 3%.
After the recent epiphany, the Evolution Level skyrocketed as if on a rocket, surging to 58%.
Yang Fan also sensed that due to resonance with the Primordial Star Formation, the Frost superpower had undergone a wonderful change.
This can be understood as—a minor mutation in the superpower.
Aside from that.
The Spirit Value was stimulated by the superpower, instantly increasing by 8 points, reaching a new high of 234 points.
The Life Elemental Power increased by 24 points, bringing the total to 2513 points.
Yang Fan thought for a moment, then turned to look at the dog, instructing: "Wang Zai, go fetch a pot of warm water."
"Woof!"
Wang Zai immediately ran off.
A minute later.
He came back holding a pot of warm water in his mouth.
Yang Fan lifted the pot and poured the water directly down.
Wang Zai watched, utterly baffled.
What was the master going to do?
His confusion was soon resolved.
Yang Fan waved his hand, and the descending warm water immediately solidified, turning into an ice sculpture.
On the surface of the ice, exquisitely beautiful patterns appeared.
Yang Fan smiled and asked: "Pretty, isn't it?"
Wang Zai's dog eyes widened again.
He immediately saw that these patterns were identical to the branch from earlier.
Yang Fan then made a peculiar hand gesture and called out: "Come out!"
As soon as the words fell.
"Crack!"
The ice sculpture shattered.
A lifelike blue ice bird manifested out of thin air.
Its form seemed both real and illusory, making it hard to tell truth from falsehood.
As it flapped its wings and flew, it was identical to a real bird.
Yet it carried a sense of vagueness, as if formed from mist.
Yang Fan looked at Wang Zai, smilingly asked: "Isn't it magical?"
This was an ability he naturally grasped when his Evolution Level rose to 58%.
"Howl!"
Wang Zai was so frightened he took a step back.
He distinctly sensed that this ice bird contained terrifying power.
If touched by it even once, he would surely become a lifeless ice sculpture.
Yang Fan gazed out the window again, murmuring softly: "The Canglan people can't hide on Canglan Star forever, we have to enter the Primordial World sooner or later.
"There's no time like the present. Maybe I should be a Civilization Pioneer and explore the Celestial Pillar Icefield for the Canglan Civilization."
After speaking, he made a sweeping motion with his right hand.
The ice bird flickered and then vanished at once.
Wang Zai was shocked beyond belief.
Why would his master go to such a dangerous place?
No, don't go!
He dashed forward, attempting to bite his master's pant leg with his dog mouth, to stop him from going to the Primordial World.
Unfortunately.
He bit nothing but air.
Yang Fan had disappeared without a trace.
