Chen Mu and Lin Yue traveled quickly, quickly crossing the outer mountains and forests, arriving at the valley in the center of the mountains and forests, and went all the way deep to the very center.
There is a cold pool here. The surface of the pool is very small, only one foot in diameter. The water is crystal clear and about three feet deep. The surface of the water is calm and gives off a little bit of chill.
There is obviously no ice, but when you get closer, you can clearly feel that the temperature near the pool is far colder than in the mountains and forests, reaching a point where it is almost impossible for ordinary people to get close.
Not to mention how cold the water is.
"This is Qingyoutan. It feels so cold."
Lin Yue approached this shallow pool of water.
This time it was not a joke, but she really felt the coldness of this pool of water. Even if she went down into this pool of water, she would probably have to use enough blood and energy to resist it.
There is a strange plant in the center of the pool, with several leaves stretching out and several translucent black spiritual fruits hanging on it, which look fresh and tender.
Qingyou fruit!
The Heaven and Earth Spirit Fruit, which is a gathering of pure Yin power, is extremely effective when used by female warriors. However, it is much different when used by male warriors, and is even inferior to some ordinary low-level spirit fruits.
This secret realm is also considered a dangerous place. A demonic bird, an eagle, is obviously not enough to entrust Chen Mu to escort Lin Yue here. Therefore, in addition to the eagle, the Futian Sect’s reward is a Qingyou Fruit.
, and there is also the Qingyoutan.
Chen Mu is currently at the fifth level of martial arts, and Qingyoutan is also very useful to him.
Looking at the spiritual fruits in the Qingyou Pond, Chen Mu pointed his finger, and a total of three Qingyou Fruits separated from the leaves and floated into the air.
One of them flew directly to Lin Yue, and the other two came to Chen Mu. As Chen Mu stretched out his hand to hold it, a large amount of spiritual energy and water vapor from heaven and earth gathered together, and quickly froze the two in the ice - this
It is a unique way to preserve Qingyou fruit.
Lin Yue took the Qingyou Fruit, then looked at the pool, turned to look at Chen Mu and blinked.
"Who goes first?"
"You first."
Chen Mu put away the two Qingyou fruits and placed them in a special jade box.
Then turn your back.
"As commanded."
"Master Chen Xian, please don't dislike it later."
Accompanied by a burst of laughter like silver bells, Lin Yue walked to the edge of the pool, and then with a deft move, she fell into the pool with a pop, leaving only her clothes in place.
The water in the pool was like slurry. Lin Yue fell into it without splashing any water. She only felt an extreme cold seeping into all parts of her body. She originally wanted to laugh when she looked at Chen Mu's back, but now she couldn't.
I couldn't laugh anymore, so I was forced to close my eyes and mobilize all the blood and essence in my body to resist the chill.
If Jingling Yuanzhu is a gentle nourishment, then the water of Qingyoutan is a rough intrusion, penetrating into the depths of the body, accompanied by the extreme cold traveling up and down the body.
With the physique of Lin Yue, a fifth-grade warrior, he could only resist with all his strength for a while.
Chen Mu knew everything behind him very well. Seeing that Lin Yue could withstand the cold without any serious problems, and began to slowly temper her body, he nodded slightly.
Without paying any more attention, a beam of spiritual light appeared on Chen Mu's body. He relied on the void to control the air and flew upwards, rising dozens of feet into the air. His vision finally became clear.
The blue sky is clear and clear.
Looking down, you can see that the entire mountain range is covered by a gray mist, and the sunlight is blocked by this gray mist and cannot penetrate.
"Interesting spiritual terrain."
Chen Mu looked through the mountains and saw that the earth structure in the mountains presented a strange terrain that could gather Yin Qi.
This place can become a special secret place, not only because of the ghosts, but also because of the terrain.
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.
Turn around and look north.
At the end of the line of sight, a white ribbon can be vaguely seen, crossing between the sky and the earth, dividing the sky and the earth into two completely different parts.
That is the northernmost part of Youzhou, and also the northernmost part of Dayuan, the Snow Ridge Jedi.
A master cannot cross it either.
Chen Mu also talked about the Snow Ridge Jedi when talking to Yan Yang. The Futian Sect knew much more about it than what Chen Mu had seen in the collection of books in the royal library.
Compared to other Jedi, Xueling is the gentlest one. As long as it doesn't go too deep, even a third-level martial arts master can come back alive.
but.
Once you go too deep, it is easy to get lost in it, and the deeper you go, the colder it becomes. That coldness not only freezes the body, but also freezes the soul.
Even a great master of the second level of martial arts could only penetrate more than ten miles deep before being forced to retreat.
Many years ago, a Martial Saint also entered the Snow Ridge, but he still could not explore its borders. He only penetrated more than fifty miles before being forced to return.
"Jedi Snow Ridge..."
Chen Mu murmured.
What a magician can see is different from what a warrior can see. When he looks at the Jedi land from a distance, he can see more things. He can clearly judge that after crossing the snow ridge, the entire world has changed!
It's as if some kind of force is acting here, cutting off the entire world!
This makes the inside and outside of the snow line almost appear to be two different worlds in the magician's spiritual vision.
"Is this natural or man-made?"
Such a question appeared in Chen Mu's mind.
Then he shook his head slightly.
This snow line traverses the north and stretches for a hundred thousand miles, cutting off the power of heaven and earth. If this unbelievable thing is man-made, then those who can do it are probably living immortals.
After looking at it for a while, Chen Mu converged his gaze.
He has no plans to explore the Snow Ridge Jedi, at least he has no interest in the Snow Ridge Jedi right now.
However, just when Chen Mu converged his gaze and prepared to return to the valley below, he was suddenly startled and looked towards the snow line again, and his whole body suddenly froze.
Only seen.
Above the endless snow line, an illusory shadow appeared silently. It was a back figure, majestic and tall, standing between heaven and earth, as if it was integrated with heaven and earth.
A kind of antiquity and vicissitudes of life that cannot be described in words fills my heart.
Chen Mu was in a daze for a moment.
When he came back to his senses, he found that the back figure quickly dissipated like a bubble, leaving no trace at all. The snow line remained unchanged, as if it was just an illusion.
"..."
Chen Mu thought for a while.
Then he converged his gaze and returned to the valley below.
In the valley.
In the quiet pond.
Lin Yue knew nothing about what was going on outside. She was still immersed in the Caitan water, lying quietly at the bottom of the pool, motionless and without any breath, just like a sleeping girl.
She didn't know how long it took, but she finally opened her eyes, emerged from the water, climbed ashore with some difficulty, then curled up into a ball, took a few deep breaths, and finally recovered a little.
When looking to one side.
I saw Chen Muzheng sitting cross-legged not far away, seeming to be deep in thought.
"What do you want...?"
Lin Yue's voice was still slightly trembling.
But as time went by, her skin, which was so white that it was almost bloodless, finally gradually regained some light color and no longer looked so scary.
"nothing."
Chen Mu shook his head and walked towards Qingyoutan.
When he stood up, Lin Yue had already put on her clothes, and then sat down directly by the Qingyou Pond. She held her cheeks with her two small hands and stared at Chen Mu, as if expecting something.
Chen Mu glanced at her angrily, waved his hand, and a ray of soul power came out. Lin Yue suddenly felt that his sight was covered, and his eyes became pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.
"unfair!"
Lin Yue shouted.
But Chen Mu's reply could not be heard in his ears, only the sound of Chen Mu stepping into the pool step by step.
…
One day later.
Chen Mu and Lin Yue returned to Futian Sect.
He took out one of the Qingyou Fruits obtained from the Qingyou Pond and gave it to Yan Yang, and then got the still alive demon bird Ou from Yan Yang.
Just like the description, it has three heads and six tails, and its cry is like a human laugh. It sounds a bit weird and scary, but it is one of the very few harmless types among many monsters.
"Is it what Chen Sichen needs?"
Yan Yang saw Chen Mu examining it carefully, nodded slightly and spoke.
Although this demon bird is rare and of extraordinary value, it is just average to the Futian Sect, and is even far less valuable than a Qingyou Fruit. I just don’t know what Chen Mu is going to use it for.
During this period of time, he had also studied this demon bird and some intelligence and information about this demon bird, but he never found anything special.
Most likely Chen Mu just happened to use it.
"good."
Chen Mu nodded lightly, let go of his hand without caring, threw the 鸸鸌 aside, held it with his soul power, and at the same time cupped his hands to Yan Yang and said: "The things are done, I won't stay any longer."
"How about Chen Sichen staying here for a few more days? There has been nothing major happening in Youzhou recently."
Yanyang offered a word of caution.
But Chen Mu said goodbye again, then walked outside with the 鸸鸌, then took a step forward, and the whole person flew out of the air and disappeared into the sky.
Yan Yang watched Chen Mu leave and shook his head slightly, then looked at Lin Yue next to him. Seeing that Lin Yue was still looking at the direction where Chen Mu disappeared, he chuckled silently, turned around and left without saying anything.
…
Seven days later.
Qingzhou, Mangzhong County.
In a dilapidated courtyard that has been in disrepair and no one has cleaned it, there is only a dilapidated wooden house and a laurel tree that seems to have been dead for a long time.
Chen Mu appeared silently, walked step by step in front of Guishu, put down the demon bird Oujiu in his hand, and restrained his soul power, no longer restraining it.
Ou Kuo stayed where he was and didn't dare to move. It wasn't until a long time later that he secretly glanced at Chen Mu. Seeing that Chen Mu had no reaction, he spread his wings and flew around the osmanthus tree, landing on the treetop.
After a short pause, it spread its wings and flew into the distance again, and let out a clear cry.
The cry was like a brisk human laugh.
[Tip: You have obtained 297 soul points]
The emotionless system prompts came to my ears, intertwined with the cries of the eagles, and then dispersed, eventually falling into silence.
