Chapter 7195
While prolonged exposure to extreme darkness won’t improve eyesight,
It will certainly increase sensitivity to light by hundreds or even tens of thousands of times.
This was the case for Brovnen.
The lack of aurora borealis and moonlight for days,
While making him irritable, it had also allowed his eyes to adapt to the extreme darkness gradually.
This was why he was able to see the faint points of light below when he was almost at his breaking point.
If the aurora borealis had been constantly shining through the ice,
He would never have noticed these almost imperceptible lights.
After confirming that it was light and not a hallucination,
He suddenly felt a surge of excitement.
The scientists had told him that there couldn’t be any human remains beneath the Antarctic ice sheet,
But a story he’d heard 100 years ago told him that before the end of the Dharma era,
There must have been many extremely powerful cultivators in the world,
Whose supernatural abilities would have allowed them to build an underground city in Antarctica.
So he couldn’t help but ask himself,
“Could it be that the light spots below are related to the Gate of Ascension?!”
With this thought in mind, he immediately summoned his miniature sword,
Flicking it with one hand until it transformed into a longsword.
He then broke through the ice, sealing the top of the ice cave, and began using spiritual energy to propel the flying sword deeper into the ice below.
To prevent the excavated ice fragments from clogging the cave,
He directly used his spiritual energy to spray those fragments onto the surface.
If someone were at the cave entrance,
They would see the ice cave seemingly come alive,
Frantically spewing out ice shards.
Fortunately, Brovnen had indeed fled far enough when he was hiding from the American forces.
Within a radius of hundreds of kilometers,
He was practically the only living person.
This is mainly because he is currently in the heart of Antarctica,
A place that is not very significant for research stations.
Most Antarctic research stations are located on the peninsula because it is convenient for navigation.
The rest are mostly located in the coastal areas of the continental plate,
Also, for the convenience of navigation and transportation.
Only a very few, like the United States Pole research station, are specifically built near the South Pole.
In other words, the current range of human activity in Antarctica is a large circle with a small dot in the middle.
Apart from the surrounding area and the central South Pole,
The remaining large area is uninhabited.
This gave Brovnen a lot of confidence.
More importantly, the moon wouldn’t be out for many days to come,
And whether the aurora would appear was still unknown.
Visibility was extremely low under these conditions,
So there was even less worry about being discovered.
Brovnen spent a day digging down at least 300 meters into the ice.
This 300-meter excavation consumed a lot of his precious spiritual energy,
But it also gave him increasing hope.
As he descended the ice, the light, initially extremely faint, became much clearer.
He could see a green dot of light emanating from beneath the ice,
Resembling a distant traffic light when the eye is out of focus.
He knew that the ice would significantly alter the light; what appeared to be a dot was currently impossible to determine.
