Chapter 1066: Traveling To Steel Frost Island
Soon, Lin Wu had consumed all of the Cruel Helm Octopus and its final effects were showing themselves.
Lin Wu could feel the change to be rather faint, but it was still there.
~DING~

“Just as I thought. The final improvement was in the Dao Traces.” Lin Wu muttered.
His compatibility with the Water Dao Trace had risen by 30%!
It was certainly a massive increase and while it didn’t reach the extremes in the 90’s it was still rather good. With this, Lin Wu would be able to sense the water element a lot better and would even be able to add several skills related to it.
‘Even a slight improvement in the Dao Traces is good, after all.’ Lin Wu thought.
No one noticed the improvement in Lin Wu, as it was simply impossible for them now. Even an Immortal Ascension realm cultivator would not detect something like this. After all, the system could hide all energy fluctuations now.
The banquet lasted all night, but Lin Wu was mostly done with it. He stayed within the auditorium for the most part, and let the others do as they pleased.
Tim was also asleep out in the snow, and had turned into a small hill with all the snow piling up on him. Though the cold didn’t really bother the weasel and he slept soundly after having consumed the meat of the Cruel Helm Octopus.
“He’ll probably improve again.” Lin Wu muttered as he saw the light appearing in the distant sky.
Dawn was about to arrive.
Lin Wu watched the sun rise and based in its warmth before deciding to leave. He simply flew up and sent a message to King Yun Guiren that he’ll contact them again later. He didn’t want to take more time talking to them thus decided to take this approach.
“Wake up Tim.” Lin Mu called out, but the beast didn’t move.
~THUD~
Lin Wu then smacked the weasel, collapsing the snow hill and sending the beast flying away. Tim flew for a couple hundred meters before he finally opened his eyes and calmly landed on the snow covered plains.
“We’re leaving?” The beast asked.
“Yup, let’s go. Time to see how the Steel Frost Island is doing.” Lin Wu said before rising up again.
~KIII~
Tim let out a low cry before flying alongside Lin Wu.
The system had already charted out a route for Lin Wu to take and according to it, it would take them a few more days to reach the location. Lin Wu didn’t mind it of course, and took this opportunity to look for more beasts and other materials along the way.
In all, it took them about five more days before they finally arrived at the mountains that surrounded the Steel Frost Island.
They were currently standing on top of one of the mountains and were looking over in the distance.
“These are certainly the tallest mountains in the Long Continent.” Lin Wu said as he gazed at the clouds underneath him.
There was a layer of clouds that might be over a kilometer thick. It prevented anyone from seeing what was below, and the only other locations that were visible were the handful of mountain peaks that were similarly tall.
“This doesn’t really allow to see. Not much of a vantage point.” Lin Wu said, while Tim simply watched on with no expression in its eyes.
“Let’s make this clear then, shall we?” Lin Wu said before he raised his tail.
~SHUA~
Wind spirit Qi gathered around it while a dense amount of spirit Qi poured into it. Lin Mu also used his innate skills and transformed the shape of his tail into a wide fan.
Once that was done, he wrapped around the peak, and aimed his fan like tail at the clouds below.
~WHOOSH~
With a single stroke, Lin Wu sent such a strong gust of wind that it wiped away all the clouds that were below. The clouds were sent flying forward at a great speed.
But Lin Wu didn’t just stop there. He kept on waving the fan like tail and sent forth gusts of winds that were possibly on the level of hurricanes!
~whistle~
“Now that’s a great view.” Lin Wu let out a whistle as he gazed at the stunning landscape below.
Hiding behind the blanket of clouds was a snow covered landscape that easily stretched for hundreds of kilometer. And in the distance, once could see what looked like a sheet of frozen water.
Lin Wu knew this was the lake that housed the Steel Frost Island.
“So this is the Circle Peak Lake.” Lin Wu muttered. “It’s almost the size of a small sea, in a sense.”
The lake had a diameter of over a hundred kilometer too, thus it wasn’t that far to call it a small sea. Though this lake was currently frozen solid, allowing one to walk over it.
And at the center of this lake stood none other than the Steel Frost Island. The island was composed of a small mountain, around which a large stone castle was built. And at the base of the castle, several small villages and towns could be seen.
This was the only legal independent city-state in the Long Continent, the Steel Frost Island that not many ever got to see.
