'I wonder what I'll become.'
Noah let his mind wander as his mental energy healed Zac's half-transparent figure, and the "Breath" inside his body stabilized the injuries on his internal organs and skin.
Almost a day passed, Noah didn't move from his position for the entirety of that period.
Snow accumulated on his body, but the coldness radiated by the snowflakes wasn't able to affect it.
Instead, it seemed that that coldness somewhat weakened the heat that still scorched his insides, Noah felt as if his injuries healed at a faster pace in that environment.
"Prince, it's time."
At some point, a voice resounded next to him.
Noah opened his eyes and saw that Elder Hope was standing in the air right above him, he sighed as he stood up and followed her where the rest of the group was.
"You are quite lucky. This type of snow is called Primordial Ice, it is a material rarely found in the old continent, and it is useful for the training of certain body-nourishing methods of the water element. I believe it is also beneficial for your injuries since they come from a fire attack."
Elder Hope explained as they flew, Noah slightly nodded as he changed into another black robe, throwing his burned one inside his space-ring.
"What do the elders say?"
Noah asked when he reached the rest of the group.
"The Elbas family has yet to realize Lois' death, it would immediately interrupt the attack on the Shandal Empire otherwise. We can advance freely for now."
Noah nodded when he heard Elder Hope's answer before continuing with his questions.
"What about their space-rings?"
"Lois Elbas' space-ring can't be touched, it seems to be protected by a power that neither Elder Austin nor Elder Julia can affect. The noble's one is in their hands though, they already said that we would be rewarded according to the wealth inside it."
Elder Hope said as she pointed toward the north.
They had reached the end of the southern coast, the only path forward was alongside the eastern coastline.
From that point onward, they would actively travel across the lands conquered by the Elbas family, there were bound to be encampments and similar on their way.
There was a high chance though that they wouldn't meet other heroic cultivators too soon, the Elbas family was attacking the Empire after all, it could only leave so many sentinels on their borders.
Considering that two of them had already been killed, it was likely that they would only meet human cultivators for a while.
"Oh, right. Why did the noble resort to a secret art just to attempt to kill you? He had a chance to escape with that burst of power."
Elder Jason asked, he had clearly seen that Fred had decided to give his everything to kill Noah.
Fred's face appeared inside Noah's mind, but he wasn't able to recognize him, even his robe had been burned so he couldn't understand from which family he came from.
'I guess I have too many enemies in the Utra nation.'
"I don't know."
Noah plainly answered as he thought that.
The group began to fly, and a land filled with Spiked roots appeared in the distance after the snowy plain.
