Gu Xibai exhaled a breath of hot air. The higher they went, the cooler the surrounding air became. At first, Gu Xibai and the others could bear it.
But gradually, even with Gu Xibai's physique, he began to be unable to hold on any longer.
Fortunately, Xu Tong had reminded them before, so everyone brought thick down jackets. Only Chang Wuzhen, a fool, hid behind the carriage to blow the cold wind while clearing his nose.
God knows what is going on in this guy’s mind. Could it be that I reminded him and he turned a deaf ear to it???
"Put it on!"
Xu Tong casually threw the clothes he had prepared to Chang Wuzhen. The cool breeze blew on his body, and he felt very cool.
On the one hand, he has a special physique, and on the other hand, he has another treasure in his hand, the cold iron gourd.
Cold iron gourd
Passive skill 1: Chilling heart and warming body
The holder can absorb ice damage and convert it into energy. When the energy overflows, it will be temporarily converted into an ice shield.
Ice Shield: Immune to ice damage. The higher the shield layer, the stronger the immunity to physical damage. The maximum cannot exceed 70%.
This treasure was given to him by the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master. It can be understood as a reward for the two of them to thank him for preventing the Thousand Hands from forcibly extraditing the souls to the Western Paradise.
With this treasure around, the cool breeze blew in front of my eyes, and more than half of the cold air was sucked away by the gourd.
The rest of it was almost painless to him.
"Hey, where are we now? When we reach the top of the mountain, everything will be dry and silent, and it will be bone-chilling. Even the ordinary underworld gods in the underworld can't stand it."
The fat monk said with a smile.
"Great Monk, since you know so much and have entered the Emperor's Forbidden Palace, you might as well tell us what it's like inside the Emperor's Forbidden Palace, so that we can gain a better understanding."
The old Taoist was speaking. He was wearing a sheepskin coat, peeling peanuts, taking a sip of strong wine, and asked the fat monk next to him.
"Amitabha, how can it be that a humble monk can enter the forbidden palace of the great emperor whenever he wants??"
The fat monk clasped his hands together and kept shaking his head, but his words changed: "But I have gone in, but it is not a brick and tile inside, it is just a forbidden palace with high walls and broken houses and tiles."
Xu Tong pretended to be surprised and said: "No way, the Lord of the Palace is the ruler of the underworld after all. After all, he needs at least 30,000 palace ladies, countless beauties and so on, right?"
The fat monk only smiled slightly when he heard the words: "Your Majesty, you are overthinking it. The temperature at the top of the secluded mountain is so high that even the beautiful lady cannot stay there for a few days. She will freeze into ice and wither. The emperor lives alone, and the people accompanying him are
, only the imperial guards of the prince."
While everyone was talking, the shadow of an inn appeared in the distance.
It's freezing cold outside, but inside the inn it looks like spring all year round.
Xu Tong squinted and saw the words "Bailu Pavilion" written on the plaque outside the inn.
"Hey, the one at the bottom of the mountain is called Ten Road Pavilion, and the one here is called Bailu Pavilion. I wonder if there is Thousand Road Pavilion further up?"
Gao Zhuo raised his neck and couldn't help but joke after seeing the name on the sign.
"Yes, some. If you go further up, you will reach a pine forest. That section of the road is the most difficult to walk."
When the fat monk said this, his expression gradually became serious: "So if you can have a good rest here, don't miss it, especially in the separate courtyards here, each has a hot spring, which can not only expel the cold, but also have the effect of insulating and protecting the body.
, don’t miss it, otherwise you may not be able to endure it later.”
Hearing what the fat monk said, what could Xu Tong say? He drove the carriage slowly to the door of the inn.
I was about to call the store owner to come out to pick up the customer.
As a result, I heard the rapid sound of horse hooves behind me.
"Hey! Someone is coming."
Hearing the sound, Xu Tong and others immediately became alert. Not long after Bai Di's men left, Xu Tong was worried that the other party might be looking for trouble again.
"drive!!"
The sound of horse hooves came galloping, but the people who came were not Bai Emperor's men, but a group of young people. At first glance, they seemed to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.
This group of people were dressed in gorgeous robes, inlaid with gold and jade, and everyone looked like they were noble young men with extraordinary bearing.
Even the horse riding on its crotch is extraordinary, with fiery red patterns and stars on its mane. It runs like a flaming elf and is as fast as lightning.
"Starfire Spotted Leopard Colt, what a great mount!"
The fat monk watched from a distance and told everyone the names of these people's mounts.
Although it cannot be regarded as a divine dragon species, it is also a rare and good mount.
This kind of mount is not something ordinary people can ride, which shows that the strength of these young people is also extraordinary.
"Be enlightened!"
The old Taoist closed his eyes and sensed it, and found that the strength of these people was almost in the realm of enlightenment, and the first one was much stronger. In terms of realm strength alone, he may not be inferior to the eldest princess.
Several people walked to the inn, glanced at Xu Tong and others, and quickly rushed into the inn.
Without waiting for the shopkeeper to speak, he casually took out a brand new banknote and threw it to the shopkeeper: "Please bring me some good wine and food. I'll take care of all the private houses you have."
The shopkeeper was startled, and his eyes widened as he looked at the shining golden money.
Just when he was about to nod and agree, he heard Xu Tong walking in from outside the door: "Wait a minute, there are many of us, one person per room!"
With that said, Xu Tong threw the three ghost notes to the shopkeeper.
The fat monk just now made it clear that the hot springs in this private courtyard can not only expel the cold, but also have the effect of insulating and protecting the body.
Xu Tong didn't care, but he was afraid that Gao Zhuo and the others wouldn't be able to hold on. There were only five people there, and two private courtyards were enough. However, Xu Tong couldn't bear it when he wanted to book the whole place as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Hey, who are you? You dare to rob us!"
Seeing Xu Tong actually take out three pieces of money, the noble gentlemen on the side suddenly stared with anger in their eyes.
Xu Tong didn't care about them, and just said: "Since you have money, you can book the venue, I think I can do it too."
When several people heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other for a moment, and actually laughed in unison.
"Hahahahaha!"
One of them pointed at Xu Tong: "Boy, I just saw it. Aren't you just a messenger? Don't talk about your official duties. See clearly what this is!"
After that, he took out a waist badge from his sleeve.
The waist tag clearly says "Beiyin Luofeng Six Heavens" in six big characters.
When he saw this thing, the store owner's face became strange.
"Oh no, it turns out it's these little devils."
The fat monk glanced at it from a distance and secretly screamed in his heart, how could anyone not recognize the Beiyin Luofeng Liutian brand?
The Luofeng Liutian Palace is directly under the jurisdiction of the Northern Yin Fengdu Emperor, and even the Five Ghost Emperors have no authority to give orders.
These young people in front of me are probably the second generation ancestors of Luofeng Liutian Palace.
These few are well-known troublemakers in the underworld, but they have extraordinary backgrounds. Whenever they see or talk about it, they always call him "Grandpa" when they see Emperor Fengdu.
From the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions to the evil ghost generals, everyone mostly turned a blind eye towards them.
These troublemakers also know in their hearts how much they weigh and how much they can provoke in such a huge underworld, but they cannot offend the pure ones.
So they behaved freely on weekdays, as long as they didn't offend those few people they couldn't afford to offend, they were free to live happily elsewhere, so they were called the Little Devils of Beiyin.
He didn't expect to come sooner or later, but to appear at this moment made the fat monk secretly curse his bad luck.
Xu Tong took a closer look, glanced at the badge and rolled his eyes: "Sorry, I can't read."
Several people were amused when they heard this. The underworld was vast, but few people dared to play tricks with them.
It is also strange today that someone actually made trouble on their heads.
Immediately one person sneered and said: "Oh, if you don't know how to read, then let's see if you know how to fist!"
After one person said this, he rushed towards Xu Tong.
I saw his palm open, and a piece of red cloud bloomed, as gorgeous as fireworks, but the murderous intention made the surrounding void freeze, and it was bitingly cold.
The other party obviously saw that Xu Tong was not as good as them, so they decided to humiliate Xu Tong.
As everyone knows, a high level does not necessarily mean a strong combat power.
Since Xu Tong dared to kill Zhang Haisheng in front of Tianmen, how could he be an ordinary person? He already had the capital to become a Taoist.
Facing the opponent's palm shadow, Xu Tong's eyes flashed, and he raised his hand to hit the opponent's palm shadow with [Vajra Demon Subduing Hand] (from Chapter 7 of Volume 11).
The golden light in the palm is brilliant, as strong as thunder, penetrating the rainbow light.
With the explosion of "Bang!", Xu Tong's body only swayed slightly, but the other party was sent flying backwards.
"Xia Yan!"
When the other four people saw this, their expressions suddenly changed, and they turned around and glared at Xu Tong: "You are really brave, he is the son of Dongming Gong Xia Qi!"
Xia Qi, Duke of Dongming Dynasty, was the lord of Luofeng Liutian Palace and the Palace of Wucheng in the Ming Dynasty.
It's a pity that Xu Tong didn't care about this. His face turned cold, his aura surged, he summoned the Pure Yang Sword, and dragon scales protruded from his body.
"It doesn't matter whose son you are, I am the envoy appointed by the Yin Caosi to receive the envoys on behalf of the underworld. This matter is of great importance. If you dare to attack the envoys, you are treasonous."
When it comes to putting on a hat, Xu Tong has already mastered this skill very well. No matter who you are, if you put a big hat on him first, his momentum will be three points weaker than anyone else's.
"Who the hell are you trying to scare Yin Caosi? Let's go together! Beat him!"
However, these demon kings are not intimidated. On the contrary, even if the Lord of Hell comes, they will not give up.
The five of them were ready to take action.
Seeing that a fight was about to begin, Gao Zhuo and others had already picked up the guys and were ready to join the fight.
But at this moment, a bell was heard ringing in the inn. The ringing was like a tidal wave, which shook everyone's hearts and emotions. They wanted to cry for a while, and wanted to laugh for a while.
Xu Tong's heart tightened and he quickly guarded his mind.
On the carriage shaft, the fat monk frowned when he heard the bell and murmured to himself: "Why is it him!"
"You guys don't want to show off here. You are no match for him. If you insist on showing off your strength, it will only make you a laughing stock. Why don't you leave quickly?"
The sound of scolding came with the ringing of the bell, which made several people's expressions change greatly, thinking: "Why is he here??"
These six demon kings run rampant in the underworld, but they also know who they can provoke and who they cannot.
For example, the Ghost Emperors of the Five Directions, although they have immense magical power, they cannot do anything to them after all, and most of them will not care about them.
But some people don't care about this. If they mess with this person, they won't be able to live without it.
Their eyes immediately met, and he helped Xia Yan up and turned to leave. Before leaving, he did not forget to give Xu Tong a hard look: "Wait, this matter is not over yet!"
After that, he rode on the Xinghuo spotted leopard colt and rode away.
Looking at the direction, it should be going upwards.
At this time, only a boy was seen walking out of the inn and came to Xu Tong: "My master, please lead the envoy to meet the envoy from the foreign land..."
