Chapter 2340 - 2341: The Blizzard Descends
The super blizzard happened three days after Feng Yuan and his team arrived. Due to the asynchronous flow of time, Feng Yuan was not worried about wasting too much time on this investigation and missing the festival in the modern day.
During these three days, they investigated the origin of those special crafts. As an Ascetic, Feng Yuan managed to gather quite a bit of information.
As Feng Yuan had guessed, every few days, a group of outsiders would bring these crafts for wholesale to local vendors like them.
However, with war impending, even the vendors were worried that they might wake up one day to find war at their doorstep, causing them to reduce their stock.
Therefore, they couldn’t be sure when that group would come. However, that group was recognizable, as their attire was different from those of Coletos.
Feng Yuan hadn’t expected to encounter them in these two days, as the super blizzard was their work. Hence, it was unlikely they would risk their lives to trade at this time.
After wandering around Lordman City for two days, on the day of the super blizzard’s arrival, Feng Yuan was ready to leave the city, but he did not take action immediately.
He knew a super blizzard would arrive today and that Agunas and the others had already gone to the Cave of Garomar to observe.
Only Milos Lulu chose to stay with Feng Yuan, as it wasn’t very interested in the anomaly occurring at the Cave of Garomar.
While Feng Yuan was shopping for portable food supplies, the clouds in the sky suddenly gathered swiftly, and in no time, a blizzard silently descended over the entire Northern Snow Plain.
The ordinary citizens of Lordman City, who had been anxious, actually felt slightly relieved when the blizzard arrived. As long-time residents of the snow plain, they knew well that no one would dare venture out in such weather.
This meant that the war they feared would be delayed by at least a few days.
The innkeeper, who had already helped Feng Yuan check out, was delighted to see him return and greeted him warmly, knowing that even an Ascetic couldn’t venture out in this weather.
For him, this was good news not because he wanted to earn a bit of lodging fee from Feng Yuan, but because the blizzard’s arrival would delay the war, giving Coletos more breathing space.
The delighted innkeeper even waived Feng Yuan’s room fee.
Feng Yuan didn’t plan to tell him that Coletos would avoid the imminent brutal battle because of this blizzard, and the entire Northern Snow Plain would face reduced warfare due to this super blizzard.
After all, aside from those involved in the plan, no one could predict how long this super blizzard would last.
The heavy snow quickly sealed off the roads, and though Agunas and the others did not return by night, Feng Yuan was not worried, knowing that it was nearly impossible for anyone to harm them.
"At the time, I thought this snow was a miracle, but I didn’t expect it to be his doing."
Milos Lulu watched the familiar snowfall with nostalgia. Back then, witnessing the prolonged super blizzard, all it felt was excitement, knowing that Coletos would be saved.
However, it never expected that the blizzard was not an act of natural wonder but a human-made rescue.
"Did he never mention it to you?"
Feng Yuan looked at Milos Lulu in confusion, and it shook its head in response.
"No, or I wouldn’t have been unaware that our Coletos once traded with the Kashantuosi Remnants. Perhaps he feared I wouldn’t agree, considering the Kashantuosi Remnants seemed dubious."
Milos Lulu still didn’t know what he was thinking back then and could only speculate based on the information it had.
As for taking this opportunity to ask now?
That would be impossible, especially since he was right there beside it. Meeting could cause unforeseen issues.
The biggest taboo after going back in time is meeting one’s past self, as it could create huge changes in the future.
"Knowing they were suspicious, but choosing cooperation anyway... Well, it was the last straw of hope. If your powers were stronger, maybe it wouldn’t have come to this."
Feng Yuan teased with a smile, and Milos Lulu shook its head with a wry smile.
"If that were the case, I couldn’t intervene. After all, beings as powerful as Agunas and the like couldn’t easily involve themselves in wars between nations."
They were too powerful, and engaging in war could devastate the entire region.
Beings like Agunas typically avoided wars, and even if they intervened due to Feng Yuan’s circumstances, they wouldn’t plunge full into it.
Of course, with such powerful Divine Beasts as backing, few would dare provoke that nation lightly.
"I remember this blizzard lasting a long time. Tsk, miscalculated. I should have slipped away first and had Agunas take us to jump through time instead."
Watching the endlessly falling snow, Feng Yuan realized something. One reason this blizzard was called a super blizzard was its prolonged duration. After the blizzard, nearly every city on the Northern Snow Plain became an isolated island.
From then on, every city on the Northern Snow Plain would stockpile large amounts of food, fearing the reoccurrence of similar super blizzards.
Using Spirit Beasts to dispel the blizzard?
The difficulty was too great. Even naturally occurring blizzards were rarely dispersed by anyone, let alone this super blizzard, which, as recorded, directly ignored the Ultimate Moves of Spirit Beasts related to weather phenomena.
Of course, Feng Yuan knew this phenomenon stemmed from the leaked power of the Dominator of All, so it was normal for an Ordinary Spirit Beast’s Ultimate Moves to have no effect.
In fact, even typical Divine Beasts would struggle to clear such a terrifying blizzard.
At the Cave of Garomar, Agunas and the others watched from subspace as that immense power continuously released.
There was no doubt the super blizzard was orchestrated by these people, utilizing the leaked power of the sealed Dominator of All.
"Where exactly did they obtain this information? Could the Yin World truly document so thoroughly?"
Agunas flicked its tail with some unease. This did not feel right. As a Divine Beast managing recorded texts, Agunas knew well how such information was typically documented.
Revelations on using the Dominator of All as a Divine Artifact wouldn’t typically be on record. Generally, the Yin World would record standard information, not usage instructions.
"Hard to say. Blaming everything on the Yin World doesn’t seem quite reasonable. But where they obtained this information remains bizarre."
Veronia watched the group with a complicated expression, unable to fathom where they sourced their data. Surely the Mythological Remnants didn’t forcefully breach the Yin World to copy the information?
"Parallel World?"
Tamur suddenly spoke up, not knowing the answer but inexplicably having the term come to mind.
"Parallel World?!"
"Wait! The data on Parallel Worlds isn’t solely built by them. If that’s the case..."
Agunas paused. They hadn’t considered this direction before. If the Parallel World held complete Mythical Era data, their actions wouldn’t seem so surprising.
Moreover, the Kashantuosi Remnants were indeed connected to the Mythological Remnants. At the very least, they once entered the Parallel World and likely helped construct it.
If so, accessing that information from the Parallel World wouldn’t be a major issue. Although differences with the real world existed, they were bound by the same world rules, posing little problem.
"This is something we’ll have to ask Feng Yuan later, as we’re not very familiar with it."
Veronia glanced at Tamur, not expecting Tamur, seeming without clear authority, to wield such dreadfully powerful authority.
Related to an era’s Parallel World, albeit now only parallel space, its upper limits were seemingly quite different from their own.
Tamur simply swayed its body indifferently. Authority? It wasn’t one for striving and rivalries. To it, these differences didn’t matter.
