This also confirmed the terrible fact that the cold wave is coming.
The temperature outside has dropped to a terrifying level.
"We have no retreat now, we can only dig up the nine-story demon tower."
"I'm afraid this blizzard will get even bigger. Stay away from the wind and snow."
"We can still hold on, but Axiang..."
Yang Shirley looked at the girl Axiang with pity.
She was delicate and frail, and could not adapt to such a cruel natural environment. She was already turning blue from the cold.
But there was no way, her godfather forced her to come with him, and she couldn't refuse.
Naturally, "outsiders" like Hu Ming, Hu Bayi, and others were in no position to refuse. After preparing the climbing ropes, they stopped inking and slid down one by one.
But the good thing is that this glacier fissure is diagonally downward, so even Axiang, who doesn't know anything about rock climbing, can get down.
Hu Ming and Chu Yi took the lead and walked at the front. Hu Ming held a rope in one hand and a knife in the other.
He always felt that there was something else inside the glacier.
Sure enough! After the others had fallen more than half the distance.
Suddenly, from the blind spot of everyone's vision, a creature that was all white and had a swollen body like a cute doll climbed the ice wall and rushed towards everyone!
"Snow Maitreya"!*2.
Seeing this thing, Hu Ming and Chu Yi shrank their pupils and exclaimed.
This thing is a bit bloated, but judging from its appearance, it should be shaped like a giant wolf.
"What is Xue Maitreya?"
The others were stunned, looking at the serious eyes of Hu Ming and Chu Yi, and couldn't help but ask.
"It's a strange parasitic organism, unique to glaciers."
"Whenever the melting period is about to end and a cold wave is about to come, this thing will wake up from the glacier and come out to hunt."
"Looking at its bloated appearance, it's still very fresh. It must have been parasitized by a giant wolf just last night, right?" Hu Ming explained casually.
At the same time, Hu Ming stabbed the dragon-patterned cirrus knife in his right hand into the ice wall, grabbed the rope and stood upright, stepped on the back of the knife with his feet, and leaned against the ice wall to stabilize his body.
At the same time, he turned over his backpack and took out a small bag, from which he grinded out a handful of white crystal sand.
That's table salt.
Xue Maitreya is not a dangerous thing, it can't be found with slimes.
No knife or gunshot wounds are of any use to it.
The only weakness, and the biggest weakness, is salt!
Hu Ming's eyes were like lightning, staring at Xue Maitreya's figure.
Strangely enough, every time he went to the tomb, Hu Ming was mostly regarded as the first target of those dangerous moves.
It made Hu Ming wonder if he was born to be at odds with these ghosts, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Three, two, one,
When the thing was about to hit his face, Hu Ming suddenly raised the salt in his hand.
Suddenly, Xue Maitreya's figure was covered with salt from the sky's elites.
"Ahhhh!!"
Suddenly, a sharp howl came.
Xue Maitreya was pinned to the ice wall with all four legs, and his whole body was sprinkled with salt.
Suddenly, the whole body began to contract violently. At the same time, the swollen body seemed to be melting, with transparent liquid dripping continuously.
In just a few blinks, the thing shrank into a ball as big as a fist and fell down the glacier, revealing the wolf corpse wrapped inside.
The wolf corpse had long been used as nutrients by Xue Maitreya, and he extracted it unscrupulously all night long.
The once huge body was shriveled up to an unbelievable state, and the skin was ulcerated.
Without the support of Xue Maitreya, the wolf corpse swayed feebly on the ice wall twice and then fell down.
"Be vigilant, no one can tell whether there is anything else down there."
"Anyway, be careful and you won't make a big mistake!" Hu Ming turned over and jumped off the back of the knife, holding on to the rope to stabilize his body.
After the Snow Maitreya melted, the faint sense of danger subsided.
But even if this was the case, Hu Ming did not dare to be careless.
God knows if something dangerous will pop up.
The nine-story demon tower itself is very demonic!
Not long after, the group of people had successfully and safely arrived at the top of the nine-story demon tower.
It is covered with a layer of blue ice, and most of the tower is buried deep in the glacier.
Only this part of the top of the tower is exposed through the cracks.
Without further ado, ginger juice is still the way to go.
After waiting for a few minutes, the ice layer on the top of the tower was dug through after the engineers had shoveled it for a short time.
The skeleton of the nine-story demon tower is made of materials similar to Qilian juniper.
It is a structure of square wood, round wood and rammed earth.
This place is covered by glaciers all year round and knows how to make porcelain solid.
Fortunately, there were many people, so it didn't take long to open a big hole in the top of the tower.
After hanging down from the rock climbing station, everyone entered one after another.
On the top floor, there is a huge ice disk occupying a huge space in the center of the small space.
The ice tray is transparent and has a wolf-headed statue carved on it.
It was a statue of a military commander with the head of a wolf and the body of a man wearing battle armor.
"If you ask me, we won't hear anything anymore."
"Now that we're inside the demon tower, let's just go all out and dig through it!"
"According to the customs passed down from ancient times in Western Xinjiang, any secrets should be kept at the bottom!"
Hu Ming pondered for a moment and then suggested something.
In his intuition, he has not found any danger yet.
"Okay, Akiko, I've been waiting for your words!"
Hearing this, Fatty and Hu Bayi immediately became happy. After entering the nine-story demon tower, their hands were already itching.
Now that Hu Ming had spoken, several people could no longer hold back.
He immediately swung his engineer shovel and smashed it towards the ice tray in the center.
What a wolf-headed statue, they don’t believe it!
At this time, Lei Xianming waved the Samsara Sect scroll in his hand, as if he had something to say.
