Sensing that Di Wang and his group were still thousands of meters away from him, Ye Tian arranged the killing formation, retreated more than a hundred meters, and found a flat land with ice rocks to rest.
This evil gathering formation almost consumed all his energy.
"The vitality here is really abundant. Maybe the legend about the Seven Swords descending from the Tianshan Mountains in the book is true!"
Six or seven hours later, Ye Tian, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, slowly opened his eyes. The vitality in his body had fully recovered. The pure vitality of heaven and earth made him feel in extremely good condition.
Most of the ancient Taoists liked to find remote mountains and rivers to practice in seclusion, such as Maoshan Wudang Dragon Tiger Sanqing Mountain, which have left many legends.
Although the story of Seven Swordsmen descending the Tianshan Mountains can be found in novels, it does not necessarily mean that there were no previous hermits who lived here in seclusion.
What Ye Tian received was only the fortune teller's inheritance, which left behind such exquisite skills. Those skills practiced by the Taoist sects that specialize in the art of immortality, not to mention immortality, but the art of Zhu Yan's ability to live for hundreds of years is still
It's very possible that the surname is surnamed.
"In another hour, they will pass the ice tower..."
Silently feeling the fluctuations of his own vitality, Ye Tian thought to himself. The ice tower is the only way up the mountain. If they want to return to Tianchi, they must pass there.
After standing up and stretching his body, Ye Tian's eyes were suddenly attracted by a gliding animal more than 20 meters above him, "Huh? Then... what is that thing?"
This animal is about one meter long, shaped like a snake, but has two wings. Its body is gray-white, but there is a tumor-like protrusion in the middle of its head, which is golden yellow.
The wings of this snake-like creature are very thin and almost transparent. If you don't look confidently, you might think it is a snake hovering in the air. It looks extremely weird.
"Flying... flying snake? How come there is such a thing on the snowy mountain?"
Ye Tian likes to watch the animal world explained by Teacher Zhao. He has heard of the flying snake, but firstly, this kind of creature is more or less distributed in southern Asia and East India. Secondly, he has seen flying snakes on TV.
, and there are no wings.
Although that kind of snake is named after a flying snake, it is actually unable to fly and can only perform jumping movements. When 'flying', its entire body swings and twists, and its head and tail are changing, making them appear different in form.
Able to fly like a flying saucer.
After seeing this thing, Ye Tian couldn't help being frightened, and the "No Trace" in his sleeve instantly slipped into his palm. In these places with extremely harsh natural conditions, basically no animals with strange shapes are easy to provoke.
However, there are many undiscovered species on this planet, especially in this restricted area for humans, which is also a paradise for some rare species. Although Ye Tian was surprised, he didn't feel strange at all.
Seeing the flying snake hovering in the air for more than ten meters and then falling to the ground, Ye Tianjiang shrank back behind the rock. There was such a colorful tumor on his head. Most of the time, this strange snake was also highly venomous.
"Quack...quack!"
A cry like a frog came from above Ye Tian. Ye Tian could hear that the strange snake seemed to be quite restless, and he couldn't help but stretched his head and looked over.
Ye Tian discovered that the wings of the strange snake were only attached to its body, and its entire upper body was raised high like a cobra, making a strange sound in one direction.
"Damn, this...is this thing a ferret?"
Following the cry of the strange snake, Ye Tian discovered that there was another animal confronting the strange snake seven or eight meters away.
This animal had silver hair all over its body, a slender body, and short limbs. If it weren't for the circle of black hair around its eyes, it would have been difficult for Ye Tian to spot it in the ice and snow.
Although this thing looks like a ferret, it can confront this weird flying snake. Ye Tian estimates that this is not an ordinary animal, maybe it is also a mutated species.
"Isn't this the case?"
Seeing the nervous look of the two animals, Ye Tian also understood that these two animals should be natural enemies. I don't know if they met together, there would definitely be a fight between dragons and tigers.
As expected by Ye Tian, after the confrontation for more than a minute, the strange snake attacked first. Its tail on the snow shrank back, and then like a spring, its whole body moved seven or eight times.
Bounced away from the ferret meters away.
However, although the flying snake's ejection was fast, the ferret's movements were as fast as lightning. Ye Tian didn't even see how it avoided it. The ferret came behind the flying snake and held down the flying snake with its two front paws.
Snake body.
"Quack!"
Unwilling to be restrained, the flying snake wrapped its tail around the ferret's body, while the ferret held the flying snake's head firmly to prevent it from having a chance to bite it.
The snow started to roll.
The ferret's claws were extremely powerful, and it firmly pressed the monster snake's head to the snow, and did not let go even if the snake's tail slapped itself. At the same time, it bit the monster snake's wings with its teeth.
"The flying snake is going to be defeated!"
Seeing that the strange snake's tail was getting weaker and weaker, Ye Tian realized that this battle might be about to decide the winner, but at this moment, the golden sarcoma on the head of the strange snake suddenly shattered with a "pop"
opened.
Along with a splash of yellow juice, an unpleasant smell filled the air at the same time. The ferret seemed to be very afraid of the juice and smell, and quickly released its paws and jumped to the side.
But at this moment, the head of the strange snake bit the ferret's hind leg. The ferret suddenly let out a "chirp" sound in its mouth, turned around and bit the strange snake's seven inches.
As the ferret swung its head wildly and bit into the strange snake's body, the winged flying snake gradually stopped struggling, and its body was loose on the ground like a hemp rope.
However, the strange snake did not let go even after it died. Its head was still hanging on the ferret's hind legs. Ye Tian didn't know if his eyes had an illusion. He felt that the silver-white hair of the ferret seemed to have suddenly become
Somewhat gray and black.
"Jiji!"
Just when Ye Tian wanted to stand up and take a closer look, the ferret suddenly barked in his direction, and its originally cute face turned a little ferocious.
"Don't be afraid, I won't move!"
Ye Tian, who had seen the lightning-like movements of ferrets, immediately stiffened up. He had no guarantee that he could dodge the speed of this thing. If the ferret's mouth was poisonous, it would be disastrous to be bitten.
Seeing Ye Tian stop moving, the ferret turned back and bit the strange snake's body, but the strange snake's teeth had bitten deeply into its muscles, and it couldn't get rid of it.
More than a minute passed like this, and the ferret's movements slowed down. Its blood was scattered on the ground. It seemed that it had realized that there was no way to get rid of the strange snake. The ferret let out a scream and its body
He waddled down and ran away.
"Hey, don't go into that array!"
Seeing that the ferret was running in the direction of the killing formation he had set up, Ye Tian couldn't help but stand up. To be honest, the ferret looked quite attractive. Ye Tian didn't want to see it being killed by the formation.
Killed by law.
However, the ferret ignored Ye Tian and instead dragged the strange snake running on the snow. Just four or five meters away from the killing array, the figure suddenly disappeared.
"Falled into a crevice?"
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then remembered that there were indeed large and small glacial cracks outside the ice tower group. It seemed that the ferret was injured and fell down.
"It's a pity. These two species are probably mutated creatures. I wonder if there will be any descendants after death?"
Ye Tian straightened up, and when he was about to go over and take a look, his expression suddenly changed and he became shorter again, because he had already seen several figures appearing more than 200 meters down the mountain.
"It came very quickly!"
Although the visibility on the snow-capped mountains was very low, Ye Tian still saw that it was a group of four people. The person walking at the front was a big man carrying a large package on his back, and there were two people behind him helping to carry it up.
The person walking at the end was a middle-aged man of short stature. Ye Tian couldn't see his appearance clearly, but when he observed him, the middle-aged man seemed to look in Ye Tian's direction.
"So keenly alert?"
Seeing the man looking in his direction, Ye Tian quickly retracted his head, feeling a little surprised. He was sure that none of the four people below him had vitality, but for some reason, he noticed a trace of it from the middle-aged man.
Dangerous smell——
Di Wang, who was walking at the end with a cane, suddenly stopped and shouted: "Biaozi, stop!"
"Brother, what's wrong? We'll be arriving at the ice tower area soon. Let's go and have a rest!"
Although the person sealed in the ice is not very heavy, carrying such a guy on the snowy mountain, even though Biaozi is in good health, he is still panting from exhaustion and wants to throw this damn thing into the glacier.
.
"I feel something is wrong. There seems to be some danger ahead!"
Di Wang's face was very serious. Just now, he suddenly felt palpitations, as if his heart was suddenly grabbed by a big hand and stopped beating in an instant.
Di Wang had experienced this three times before. The first time this happened was when Di Wang led a guerrilla force to raid a political ax army station.
The feeling of heart palpitations made Di Wang decisively choose to give up the action, but just as he was retreating, the silent political ax army station suddenly became noisy, lights were lit all around, and they were surrounded.
However, because Di Wang retreated in a timely manner, he finally jumped out of the encirclement at the cost of two lives. It turned out that the palpitating feeling saved his life.
When this situation occurred twice later, the same fatal danger occurred, but Di Wang managed to avoid it both times.
