To the north of the land of Kyushu is a vast grassland; further north from the grassland is a cold wasteland; further north from the wasteland is an ice field that is always covered with thick ice and is so cold that no human traces are found.
It is said that most of the ice here has never melted since ancient times, but has slowly accumulated over the years. Maybe it was just a thin layer at first, but now it has become a towering mountain - between the ice field and the wasteland, the ice and snow have accumulated.
The hillside, go up the hillside, and you will find the ice field.
The climate in Kyushu is very regular. It gets colder as you go north. The winter in the Great Wilderness is already terrifyingly cold. It is said that "if you spit out the foam, what falls will be ice slag..." The ice field area is even colder than you can imagine! According to the
Those monster hunters who pursue excitement regardless of their lives say that even if they pour out a bowl of boiling water in that damn place, it will freeze into ice cubes in an instant.
If you want to move in the ice field, you must have the cultivation level of the innate realm, otherwise you are simply seeking death. Moreover, the innate realm can only be active on the periphery of the ice field. If you want to go deep into the ice field, you must have a higher realm. According to legend, only by cultivating the immortal body, can one
Only the flying immortals who can enter and exit Qingming can travel unhindered in the ice field if the Gangfeng protects them.
Of course, this is just a folk legend. According to the notes left by the ancestors of Qingyang Temple, even monks must be very careful when operating in the ice field area, because many things here can pose a certain degree of threat to them
.If you are not careful enough, injuries are common. Flying immortals often die here, and their lifelong practice is wasted.
Of course, if you are an expert in the realm of Ning Yuan or even Huan Dan, you can naturally go wherever you want without any scruples. But in that case, wouldn't it be impossible to achieve the purpose of training?
So this time, the three twenty-seventh generation disciples of Gang Lian, led by Wu Jie, came to the ice field area to investigate the strange phenomenon.
Wu Jie, An Ziqing, Yi Ti.
There are naturally more than just the three of them in Qingyang Temple, but the rest, except for Luo Yu who is acting as Dragon King in Jinhu, are all twenty-sixth generation guardian disciples. Those guardians are either like San Yun
Seniors like Uncle Zi are squatting at home and never going out, or they have already experienced it in the ice field area, and there is no point in coming back.
According to An Ziqing, soldiers are more expensive than finesse. The three of them are worth thousands of troops! However, Wu Jie felt that the three of them were still a bit too few, so he went to Shiwanda Mountain first to find
Li Xiao, who was concentrating on his cultivation.
Li Xiao was a disciple of Du Xin who was accepted by Wu Jie on behalf of his friends more than ten years ago. It was originally an extremely rare ancient alien species. Its natural ability was to control flames and freezing air. Over the years, it has devoted itself to practicing the Great Light Sect and propagating the righteous Dharma."
"The Art of the Great Sun Light" not only gradually washed away the hostility, but also broke through the limits of the monster beast, melted away the crossbones at the back of the head, and transformed from a vicious beast into a spiritual beast, achieving a qualitative breakthrough.
Today, Li Xiao has lost his steel-like feathers and sharp claws and fangs. The new feathers are very soft, his claws have become much slender, and the teeth in his mouth are not much different from those of humans. He has already learned to speak
In human terms, it's just a little bit hard to pronounce, probably because of lack of exercise.
When Wu Jie found him, he was practicing hard on the top of the snow-capped mountains. The winter sunshine fell on his black and white body and was continuously absorbed. The spirit beads hanging on his chest were also glowing, and the light seemed to be alive.
The light and dark changes as it breathes.
Even though he was far away, Wu Jie could feel the harmonious aura of Li Xiao that was integrated with nature. This was the symbol of the spiritual beast, and it also meant that he had entered the realm of refining and was a first-rate flying immortal.
A master!
"You are a very good apprentice! No matter your talent or hard work, you are impeccable. You are much better than my two apprentices!" Wu Jie said to Du Xin with a smile, "Qiao Feng is only innately accomplished at the moment, and he will probably continue to do so.
It will take ten years to enter the realm of Hundred Refinements; not to mention Qin Jing, who just entered Taoism through martial arts last year... Although they are actually quite good, they are really incomparable to Li Xiao!"
"It's not that he cultivates quickly, but that he has accumulated deep knowledge." Du Xin did not think Wu Jie was joking and explained seriously, "Even the most outstanding spiritual beasts in the world cannot cultivate faster than humans.
Among all the tribes in Kyushu, the human race has an absolute advantage in terms of cultivation speed. The reason why these spiritual beasts can make rapid progress after acquiring the exercises is because they have accumulated a lot of experience before."
"If you let a newborn spirit beast and a newborn human begin to practice together, unless the human's qualifications are very poor, it is almost impossible to lose to the spirit beast - even the most advanced dragon, wind, turtle and the like.
"
Wu Jie sighed. Meeting someone serious when joking is really the most boring thing!
Li Xiao seemed very happy to see his uncle Wu Jie coming to visit. And when he learned that Wu Jie wanted him to go to the Arctic Icefield with him, he jumped up with joy.
"I have long wanted to visit the ice fields!" he said happily. "The memories left by my ancestors tell me that there are very powerful enemies there, enemies so powerful that my blood boils! If I can fight them well
If you have a good fight, you will have no regrets in this life!"
"Why do you always want to find a strong person to fight?"
"This is the nature of our owl beasts, we are born to fight!"
Li Xiao's possessions were very simple: a spiritual bead that he carried with him, a few inferior magic weapons that were roughly patched together with fallen feathers, and claws and claws. Other than that, there was nothing worth packing.
Wu Jie looked at his appearance, shook his head, and gave him a spacious white robe - this was modeled after the Supreme Holy Religion, and it was also the uniform of the Great Guangming Religion. Then: several pieces of clothing.
Xin handed over the magic weapon specially made for this disciple to him and gave him some instructions on how to use it.
Except for a mind mirror, these magic weapons are used to protect the soul from the invasion of external demons. The rest are all tools for attacking and fighting - gloves that can compress magic power into sharp claws, and can change speed in an instant.
The much improved greaves, the helmet that can withstand a variety of spells, the magic beads that can combine the body and the body to turn into ice or fire... The use of each item is very simple and direct, which is in line with the straightforward personality of the owl beast clan.
Li Xiao couldn't put it down and couldn't put it down. Although Wu Jie told him, "As long as you work hard, you may be able to obtain magic treasures in the future..." But he didn't listen at all. He kept playing with these magic tools over and over for a long time. For that
The master, whom he had never met before, was full of admiration and said many words of praise.
According to him, his master must be an unparalleled hero with great benevolence, righteousness, wisdom and bravery. He must have done many earth-shaking great deeds. He must be a great master who has defeated countless powerful enemies... Wu Jie thought for a moment and felt that Du
Xin seems to be worthy of such praise.
Although the Great Guangming Cult is suspected of being mentally retarded, their plan to create an ideal world is indeed a benevolent and righteous one. As the commander of 20,000 Dharma-protecting generals, Du Xin is the core figure of the ideal world plan and a master of the golden elixir.
, it is not an exaggeration to call her great wisdom and courage; what the Great Light Sect did was indeed an earth-shattering undertaking; in that battle, she did defeat many powerful enemies...
"Thinking about it this way, you are simply a legendary hero!" Wu Jie praised sincerely, "Our usual attitude towards you is so disrespectful!"
"The Dharma Protector General No. 2001 back then was just the leader of a group of puppets. The leader of the puppets was just a puppet after all. No matter how great the master's deeds were, it had nothing to do with it." There was nothing in Du Xin's tone.
A little sad or proud, as plain as saying "the weather is nice today", "and now I am just a tenant in this world of heavenly books, I just pay the rent with my strength and wisdom, nothing special."
Wu Jie was choked up by these words and couldn't answer.
If Li Xiao heard what his master said, I wonder if the idol in his heart would collapse...
Wu Jie led Li Xiao along the way, and soon met two junior brothers who had been waiting there at "Gubei.", the northernmost town of the Northern Zhou Kingdom. He introduced Li Xiao's origins to his junior brothers, and emphasized that he
He was accepted as a disciple by the friend who presented him with the "Great Sun Light Sutra", so the two junior brothers immediately became more fond of this seemingly honest and honest spiritual beast nephew.
Based on the principle that elders should give gifts to their juniors when they meet them, both uncles gave Li Xiao some gifts.
What An Ziqing gave him was a box of blood-boosting powder. The name was very tacky, but it was a very advanced healing medicine. It could best replenish the energy and blood lost due to trauma. It would be very difficult for ordinary monks to get even a little bit of it.
What Yi Ti gave as a gift was a jade slip that recorded a lot of swordsmanship experiences. It was full of various direct sword movements, which was in line with Li Xiao's character.
Li Xiao liked the gifts from the two elders very much, but he was even more happy that they were recognized by the immortals - the yearning for the immortals is a spiritual pursuit that all monsters cannot give up. This is just like those backward areas on the earth.
It is the nature of intelligent creatures that people yearn for the life and culture in developed areas.
For Li Xiao, the two immortals did not regard him as a monster at all, but as their own nephew. This was the happiest thing for him!
The four men repaired a little, sorted out their luggage and information, and then set off across the prairie and wilderness, heading north.
It was winter at this time, and the northern part of the prairie was already covered with ice and snow. The snow in the wilderness area was so thick that it could bury people alive. As they flew through the sky, they saw only a vast expanse of white, and could not see the vegetation or rivers clearly.
, only those majestic mountains can serve as signposts to guide them in the direction of progress.
The Lian Gang monks flew very fast, and before it got too late, they saw the towering ice and snow slopes, which were more majestic and steeper than any mountain range seen along the way, towering into the clouds and stretching towards the north.
This is the Great Icefield, the coldest place in the world in Kyushu!
