Liu Xun also raised his head and smiled.
"What is it, Brother Liu?" Jiang Yun was very curious.
"Those aren't clouds. It's a plant from the Northern Region, called the Fog Stream Tree. Its branches are dense and grow on cliffs. The roots of this Fog Stream Tree are extremely strong and can grow directly in rocks. It can survive even if its entire body is covered in frost. From afar, it looks like a cloud, but in reality, it's just a tree covered in twigs. Its color is also caused by the frost, " Liu Xun explained hurriedly.
"I see." Jiang Yun nodded.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoxi's soft voice came from behind Jiang Yun.
"I don't know who it is, but when we arrive, the person kept telling me that there was something strange about this cloud, " Qin Xiaoxi teased Jiang Yun softly from behind.
"Okay, that's enough, " Jiang Yun retorted in a low voice.
"But besides these trees, there is another place that is very different from the other plants, " Liu Xun suddenly said.
"What is different?"
"This Fog Stream Tree can move." Liu Xun immediately laughed.
"It can move? What does that mean?" The two of them were also very confused when they heard this.
"This Fog Stream Tree can twist and shrink its branches. It is a rather magical plant." Liu Xun raised his head and looked at the sky."However, there is still two hours before sunrise. The Fog Stream Tree is probably still resting." Liu Xun smiled.
So that was how it was. Jiang Yun also quickly reacted. No wonder when he first arrived in the Northern Region, he could see that the clouds on the mountainside had actually dispersed for a while before gathering again, so it was just the Fog Stream Tree stretching its branches.
"The species in the Northern Region is really magical. Although there are many monsters outside of Thunder City, compared to this place, it's really nothing." Jiang Yun could not help but sigh.
Very quickly, the three of them walked out of the Crescent Moon Mountain's mountain stream and arrived at the vast and boundless snowy plains. Liu Xun was also holding on at this moment. The three of them jumped down from the bear's back.
"I'll send the two of you here. This white-furred bear knows the way. They will bring you to the shore." Liu Xun quickly cupped his hands.
"Good. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can sail to the south. Come and visit our Thunder City." Jiang Yun also bowed.
The three of them were about to say goodbye when a huge tremor occurred on the ground. The tremor almost made the three of them lose their footing,
Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi also looked at each other in dismay.
"This is bad, the giant monster has caught up."
They did not expect that the giant monster would have already descended the mountain and was approaching them after only a short period of time.
"No matter how powerful the giant monster's sense of smell is, it can't come looking for us from across the mountain, right?" Qin Xiaoxi was instantly a little surprised. However, the tremors became more and more intense, scaring the white-furred bear beside Jiang Yun that it became restless.
"It seems that the speed of the giant monster's mutation is speeding up. If this continues, it will be a big problem." Liu Xun could not help but frown.
"The monster arrived at the right time. We can eliminate it as well. In the future, it will be less dangerous for the two of you in the Northern Region."
At this moment, countless pieces of rubble began to roll down from Crescent Moon Mountain. Looking closely, a pair of furry giant hands suddenly shot out from the mountain stream.
A huge roar once again resounded through the sky. Even the fierce wind and snow could not cover up the terrifying roar of the giant monster.
Qin Xiaoxi hurriedly pulled out the Yue Maiden Sword from her back. At that moment, Jiang Yun had also transformed his spiritual power into a long sword and held it tightly in his hand.
Liu Xun, who was at the side, pulled out the katana from his waist and held it with both hands.
As the mountain shook violently, the full appearance of the giant monster was revealed.
Its blood-red eyes stared fiercely at the three of them. However, the other eye was blinded by Qin Xiaoxi, so it didn't seem to be as bright as before.
"If this giant monster doesn't eat us, it wouldn't let us go." Jiang Yun frowned.
The giant snow monster raised its head and let out a long howl. Then, it strode towards the three of them. Every step it took caused the ground to tremble.
Qin Xiaoxi's heart was in her throat. She still remembered her first battle with this giant monster.
"Let's split up and attack!" Liu Xun quickly tightened his grip on the katana in his hand and prepared to attack from both sides with Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi.
The giant monster was getting closer and closer. A strong sense of oppression slowly came with its approach. The three of them were soon shrouded in the shadow of the giant monster.
Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun quickly ran to both sides, while Liu Xun, who was in the middle, quickly moved back.
The giant monster's huge palm hit the ground at that instant causing countless gravel and snow to rise into the air. Suddenly, the ground shook violently.
Liu Xun, who had dodged this fatal blow, once again closed in on the giant monster. The Frost Dragon's extreme cold power quickly condensed on the blade of his katana and he quickly stabbed the back of the giant monster's thick hand.
"Roar!" The giant monster roared angrily. Although Liu Xun had stabbed the giant monster's hand with the blade, to the giant monster, it was as if its hand had been pricked by a bamboo stick.
Seeing that the giant monster was about to raise its hand, Liu Xun immediately drew his blade.
Qin Xiaoxi and Jiang Yun, who were on both sides, also rushed towards the Northern Region's snow monster at an extremely fast speed.
The blade cut through the air.
The Yue Maiden Sword and Jiang Yun's blade left several scars on the monster's body, but unfortunately, the giant monster's skin was hard and there wasn't any significant damage.
The enraged giant monster quickly grabbed the ground with both hands and lifted a huge rock, throwing it over its head in the direction of Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun could not help but be shocked, but he quickly raised his left palm, and a fierce golden light shot out.
The golden light collided with the huge rock in mid-air, smashing the huge rock thrown by the giant monster into countless pieces of gravel that scattered to the ground.
