Deep in the night.

"Woo~"

The howling of the cold wind sounded like the roar of a fierce ghost.

Yang Fan was so disturbed that he couldn't sleep, and climbed out of his warm bed.

He sensed for a moment and muttered softly, "The temperature has dropped to minus forty-three degrees, the cold wave is truly terrifying."

The external temperature was roughly the same as the official prediction.

Incidentally, a few more words.

The reason for such precise prediction wasn't due to official data.

Recently, under the guidance of the Mermaid, the government has utilized over ten Deceitful Artifacts to construct a Calamity Deceit Array.

The "Superpower Secret Scripture" was updated, including content related to the Calamity Deceit Array.

This belongs to an "SSS" level secret.

It is the highest level of secrecy.

Ordinary Superpower Users cannot access it at all.

However, with Mr. Ghost's authorization, the government has granted Yang Fan full access to all secrets.

Simply put, the Calamity Deceit Array is a supernatural item that can predict disasters.

But the predictions of the Deceit Array are not particularly precise.

Some disasters can be predicted, others cannot.

The predicted information is not comprehensive, giving one a fragmented feeling, with some information even being inaccurate.

At this moment.

Yang Fan quickly walked to the window, first lifted the thick quilt, then removed a wooden board, and looked outside.

Looking around.

The snow has become thicker.

The level-3 steps in front of this villa have been completely submerged by snow.

With his extremely keen vision, he saw snowflakes falling from the sky, most of them hexagonal, with few taking on a triangular shape.

Triangular snowflakes indicate that the power of the Cold Abyss is affecting Canglan Star.

This is also the first time the power of the Primordial World has influenced the fundamental laws of Canglan Star at such a large scale.

Yang Fan couldn't help but sigh lightly, "The descent speed is getting faster and faster!"

He restored the window and took out his phone to browse the news for a while.

As expected.

Triangular snowflakes appeared in various places within the Great Xia Kingdom.

Even though it's still night, social media is flooded with countless discussions about the shape of the snowflakes.

So many people staying up, discussing the shape of snowflakes online, this is unprecedented.

The hottest topic is this question—Is the change in snowflake shape temporary or permanent?

Supporters and opponents are fiercely debating.

"Hexagonal snowflakes are the embodiment of physical laws, so triangular snowflakes are merely a temporary phenomenon, once the interference disappears, snowflakes will return to hexagonal."

"Physical laws? Since the moment Superpower Users appeared, the coffin of physics has been nailed shut."

"The current physical edifice only touches upon basic particles, perhaps beneath the basic particles, there are even more microscopic levels of particles, which might be the source of superpowers."

"Microscopic particles are an interesting hypothesis, but previously there were no superpowers, indicating that microscopic particles are foreign, eventually, superpowers will disappear."

Yang Fan watched the comments for a while and then put down his phone.

He spoke softly, "Civilization Worlds captured by the Primordial World can never escape, so superpowers will never disappear.

"The power of law seeping through from the Cold Abyss will permanently alter the physical laws of Canglan Star.

"So from today onwards, on Canglan Star, there will always be a portion of the snowflakes that are triangular.

"If Canglan Star continues to be affected by the Cold Abyss, it is not impossible that all snowflakes in the future will be triangular."

In the "Superpower Secret Scripture".

This phenomenon is called—Primordial Imprint.

According to the explanation of the Mermaid, this is the law of the Primordial World imprinting itself on every Civilization World.

From now on, a very intricate connection will form between Canglan Star and the Cold Abyss.

As time progresses, many pathways leading to the Cold Abyss will appear on Canglan Star.

This is a bad thing.

Because the Cold Abyss is too dangerous.

With Yang Fan's current strength, even holding five Supreme Treasures, he does not dare to easily enter the Cold Abyss.

In a considerable period of time, the Canglan People lack the ability to explore the Cold Abyss extensively.

This is also a good thing.

Because the Cold Abyss contains more precious resources than other parts of the Primordial World.

"Woo!"

A sharper gust of cold wind blew through.

The bedroom window slightly shook.

Listening to the wind, Yang Fan suddenly had a thought: "Right, I wonder how others are getting through this cold night?"

It's not that he has any voyeuristic tendencies.

He simply wants to understand what the situation of the civilians is like, given the thorough preparations made by Linjiang City.

Yang Fan's mind stirred.

A basin of water appeared out of thin air.

"Splash~"

Clear water quickly surged within the basin.

A year ago, this trick would have been regarded as a miracle, capable of convincing countless believers.

But now, every child knows this is Supernatural Power.

Yang Fan extended a finger and touched the water's surface, a drop of blood emerged from his fingertip.

The blood dripped into the water, instantly dyeing the whole basin red.

Ripples emerged thereafter.

The water surface mysteriously returned to clarity.

The next second.

A blurred image appeared in the basin of water.

The ripples rapidly subsided.

The image became sharp.

This was another Secret Technique Yang Fan had studied today from the "Qing yang Book"—Blood Mirror Technique.

Of course.

This was not a Secret Technique simulated through Demon Power.

He used the Life Decree to modify it into a Secret Technique suitable for his own superpower.

On the water surface.

Many small red dots were clearly visible.

Each small red dot represents a human being.

This is the function of the Blood Mirror technique—projecting the breath of life onto a mirror through a certain method.

Yang Fan nodded lightly, "This indeed is a good reconnaissance method."

On the other hand.

Even a random Qing yang Demon can master so many secret techniques. This glimpse suggests how powerful the Qing yang Demon race is.

Yet, in the Primordial World, the Qing yang Demon race is not considered a top clan.

Yang Fan looked at a cluster of small red dots closest to him and reached out to tap one.

The water surface rippled again.

The mirror changed accordingly.

The family of six next door appeared clearly in the mirror.

Two elderly people and twin boys were seen sleeping on a bed, with thick mats laid on the floor, where the couple was sleeping.

Outside cold as an ice cave.

Inside warm as spring.

The family was even dressed only in spring and autumn pajamas, without much heavy bedding.

Because both the bed and floor were equipped with electric blankets, creating a rather comfortable sleeping environment for the family.

"Snore~"

The grandfather's snoring sounded very rhythmic.

The twins' mother, still awake, muttered in the dark, "We'll sleep separately tomorrow night."

She reached out to cover her ears, burying most of her head under the quilt.

Yang Fan's mouth curved slightly, "The official preparedness is quite thorough."

He arranged for a clone in Shapudian.

Due to the country's poverty and lack of resources, combined with Shapudian's tropical climate, the civilians were inexperienced in dealing with a cold wave.

Though Great Xia provided emergency aid, many Shapudian people still froze to death.

Through the Spirit Bird's eyes, he saw no fewer than a thousand corpses.

In extreme cold, life seemed so fragile.

In comparison.

This mother still had the leisure to complain about the loud snoring, showing how effective Great Xia's official response measures were.

Yang Fan lightly waved his right hand.

The image vanished.

A large number of red dots appeared again.

Yang Fan glanced at them and muttered, "Let's look at Yue Bay District."

Yue Bay District is an old residential area where he lived before, and it's also a typical civilian community.

He tapped on a cluster of red dots from afar.

Another image appeared.

This was a family of three.

Father and mother slept on either side, with a six or seven-year-old child in the middle; all three were sleeping soundly.

Due to the relatively old house, the wall insulation wasn't very good, so the family was covered with thick bedding and snuggled close together.

This scene looked quite warm.

Yang Fan waved his hand again.

Ripples appeared.

The third image emerged.

This was a shot of the cold refuge.

Some citizens had poor living conditions, and tens of thousands of immigrants from other places were still in makeshift board houses.

The city hall urgently refurbished a batch of air-raid shelters and underground parking lots as cold refuges to house these people.

The Blood Mirror technique showed a relatively large refuge.

Judging by the number of red dots, there were approximately over six hundred people inside.

At this moment.

Many people were not asleep, wandering in the middle of the night.

"It's too hot!"

"The heating is too strong; I'm sweating."

"Wish we had a fan."

Yang Fan couldn't help but smile.

Today was Linjiang City's first day coping with the cold wave; the authorities seemed to worry about civilians freezing, so they slightly overdid it.

A quarter of an hour later.

The power of the Blood Mirror technique faded.

The basin of water returned to ordinary.

Without any more pajamas, Yang Fan shook his head and muttered, "Forget it, I won't sleep; I'll keep going till dawn."

His "endeavor" wasn't cultivation.

But—gaming.

Yang Fan brewed a steaming cup of coffee, drank half a cup, then started a single-player game.

Soon after.

"Crack!"

He heard a soft sound.

The door suddenly opened.

The Great Xia dog Wang Zai, used its nose to open the door curtain.

"Woof!"

It barked once.

The dog was also disturbed by the wind and couldn't sleep, hearing movement in the master's room, it came over to see the fun.

Yang Fan laughed, "Come in."

Wang Zai wagged its tail happily, squatting honestly on the side, intently watching its owner play games.

Yang Fan was playing a first-person AAA title.

Every time an enemy appeared, Wang Zai's dog eyes would immediately focus on it, and its paws would move slightly.

Judging by its posture, it seemed eager to pick up the mouse and join the action itself.

Yang Fan glanced at it, finding it amusing.

At that moment.

He suddenly felt a blur before his eyes.

Wang Zai vanished into thin air.

A little girl, carved out of pink jade, wearing an adorable panda hat, squatted like a puppy on the ground.

Her tiny legs were hunched, and her little hands supported the floor.

This little posture looked inexplicably strange.

Yang Fan froze for a moment.

The little girl, mimicking Wang Zai, stuck her tongue out and grinned happily at him.
