The sky of this frozen star is not dark gray or dark red, but a vast expanse of white, as if there are countless snowflakes and salt grains.
Through the vast gray sky, a looming palace can be seen.
"That palace...what's going on?"
Bai Xiaowen slowly circulated his spiritual power, flew up from the ground, and flew towards the palace.
Strangely enough, the palace in the sky seemed to be very close, but when Bai Xiaowen flew over, he could never get close. As he took a step forward, the palace seemed to take a step back. The faster he flew, the faster the palace retreated.
"It seems to be an illusion similar to a mirage. However, the conditions for the generation of a mirage do not seem to be here..." Bai Xiaowen frowned. This illusion of a palace is very unusual.
Bai Xiaowen couldn't help but think of the "star map" stored in Titan's astrolabe, the eye symbol in the center of the nine planets.
Since the palace is above the sky and out of reach, is it related to the eye symbol?
In other words, that palace is what the eye symbol refers to.
Bai Xiaowen landed slowly and stepped on the ice and snow.
Through the ice, Bai Xiaowen's spiritual consciousness could feel that there was an energy fluctuation buried under the place where he landed on the Frozen Star, which was very similar to the fluctuation of the planet's portal.
It should be said that this is the remote planet portal leading to "Aqiluo Planet", but it is blocked by ice. It was through these two portals that Bai Xiaowen completed the first and second levels of the planet.
Shuttle between domains.
"At least dig out this portal first."
There are boundary monuments near the portal, which may record some useful information.
In Bai Xiaowen's palm, the shadow of a small flaming sword slowly extended out, which was the Kusanagi sword spirit.
This thing is one of the "three artifacts" in the plane of the awakened, and it appears powerful and mysterious.
But judging from Bai Xiaowen's current knowledge and attainments in the "weapon refining" branch of immortality, the Kusanagi Sword Soul is just a rare item that is no higher than the epic level.
It just contains flame martial arts moves such as "Orochanagi", and has the characteristics of some skill books, similar to the middle volume of Taiping Yajutsu.
"If you have the chance, you can find some high-grade fire materials and try to refine the Kusanagi Sword Soul into a magical weapon." Bai Xiaowen thought about it.
After Kusanagi Sword Soul was injected with true energy, the flames burning on its surface became more intense, and the temperature in the air inexplicably increased several degrees.
Phew! Bai Xiaowen swung his sword, and several feet of blazing flames were ejected from the tip of the Kusanagi sword spirit, streaking across the ice-covered ground.
A large piece of ice was melted away. Bai Xiaowen's five fingers on his left hand were slightly bent. An invisible hand with true energy firmly grasped the ice and flipped it aside. This was after practicing the Qisha Grand Mudra to a mastery level.
The performance can be performed as desired.
In this way, Bai Xiaowen built an ice cellar by force.
Sure enough, I saw a faintly glowing portal and an ancient boundary monument below.
Bai Xiaowen breathed out. Using fire skills in such an extremely cold environment would almost double the cost. Manpower is sometimes poor, and after all, it cannot compete with nature.
Moreover, after Bai Xiaowen put away the Kusanagi Sword Soul, the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and the ice cellar had a tendency to gradually freeze in the wind and snow.
Taking advantage of the fact that the ice cellar was not sealed, Bai Xiaowen jumped into it and memorized the words on the boundary monument carefully and "rubbed" them in his mind.
"On the far right side of the inscription, there is a symbol that is the same as the symbol of Aqiluo Star. It should mean 'planet'. So the one on the right side should also be the name of the planet, called...Xuanbingxing? Well, let's call it that for the time being.
Already."
Bai Xiaowen silently compared the words of God in this inscription with the words of God in the previous inscription, silently looking for the rules inside and trying to interpret them.
This process is similar to a cryptographer deciphering a code.
The difference is that the Word of God is more complicated than the password. Fortunately, Bai Xiaowen has the black book in his mind and understands a certain foundation of the Word of God.
"Only two phrases were barely deciphered. The first phrase is 'the palace of prophecy', and the second phrase is 'the underground road leading to the sacred'..."
Bai Xiaowen was thoughtful. He raised his head again and looked at the looming temple in the sky.
A rustling sound sounded.
Bai Xiaowen suddenly became vigilant and released several main summoned creatures to guard the surroundings.
boom!
A huge white shadow soared into the sky, and endless hail fragments hit him like raindrops.
The butcher roared, and its round body suddenly expanded, blocking all the hail fragments. After a moment of expansion, its body shrank back to more than two meters tall, shaking the fat on its body, and the hail fragments embedded inside
It rolled to the ground with a crackle.
"Master, it's an ice worm. It's not very strong, but we can handle it." Sigdrifa said.
This white shadow is an enlarged version of a white centipede, except that the head is slightly different. It has a terrifying spiral mouth with several layers of fine broken teeth.
Although it looks ferocious and ugly, Bai Xiaowen can also see that compared to the scorpion monsters of Aqiluo Star, this ice worm is strong but limited. It is still considered a lord-level monster.
In front of Sigdrifa, who is close to the king-level strength, the lord-level monster can naturally be called "not strong".
"It should have been attracted by the movement of me digging the boundary monument. There is no need to waste time with it, lest it attract more monsters."
Bai Xiaowen raised his hand, and a yellow talisman flew out and "sticked" to Bing Chong's forehead, causing the latter's body to stiffen immediately.
At the same time, Bai Xiaowen's body flashed and appeared in front of the ice insect. He held out the Blade of the Prairie Brothers. The invisible light blade pierced the body corresponding to the ice insect's seventh pair of arthropods, and true energy burst out in its body.
The ice worm swayed and suddenly fell to the ground, leaving only its limbs twitching continuously. Its central nervous system had been completely destroyed by Bai Xiaowen.
In fact, the ice worm only has a finger-sized wound on its body. Compared with its huge body, it is not worth mentioning. But it is this finger-sized wound that caused its death.
die.
Sigdrifa glanced at Bai Xiaowen with admiration. She felt that Bai Xiaowen was stronger. This kind of strength could not be described in words.
Several lord-level summoned creatures quickly cut open the body of the ice insect, took out a deified core, and handed it to Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen also peeled off the broken teeth of the ice worm. The Eye of Evolution showed that these broken teeth were a dark gold level 9 cold material called "Ice Leech Fang".
"It seems that it is not called an ice worm, but an ice leech."
Bai Xiaowen observed the direction of the earth veins. Although it was covered with ice, the trend of the earth veins could still be seen clearly.
Recalling the Four Heavenly Kings and other summoned creatures, leaving only the Frost Dragon as a substitute mount, Bai Xiaowen stepped on it in one step, slowly making up for his physical consumption.
The frost dragon seemed to like this kind of environment and became more energetic. It opened its bone wings and flew away in the direction guided by Bai Xiaowen.
On the way, Bai Xiaowen encountered a new monster called Xuanbingxing.
This monster looks like a snake swimming in the air, but its whole body is as crystal clear as ice, and it is wrapped in a strong cold air from beginning to end.
The Eye of Evolution took a look. This kind of monster is called the Ice Wraith. It is an elemental ice monster generated by the resentment of the dead in cold conditions. It also has lord-level strength, but also has low intelligence.
You can only act on instinct.
This is also a common practice. Monsters with higher intelligence will not easily provoke people like Bai Xiaowen who use Lord-level frost dragons as mounts.
Ice Wraiths are not difficult to deal with. They only have two moves: spitting ice edges from a distance as a magic attack such as ice spear, or biting at a close distance.
However, the Frost Dragon has additional damage reduction for ice-based attacks, and with its huge body, it can completely block attacks.
Bai Xiaowen also conserved his true energy and shot arrows from a distance. With the insight of the evolutionary eye and the prediction of his super brain, he could detonate an ice wraith with a few arrows.
The Ice Wraith will explode after death, but unfortunately no deified core will explode.
Only then did Bai Xiaowen realize that not every indigenous monster in the place of origin would produce the "core of deification", a necessary energy source for portals.
Fortunately, Bai Xiaowen could also collect a material called "Essence of the Ice Wraith", which is an epic ice material. Otherwise, he would really be at a loss for his grandma's family.
After the interlude, Bai Xiaowen continued flying on the Frost Dragon. While flying, he observed the landforms and corrected the course.
It took a full eleven hours to reach the next location where the planet's portal was suspected to be.
The Frost Dragon is really a good transportation mount, especially in this environment. After flying at high speed for eleven hours, it is still very energetic.
Fortunately, flying is the instinct of the frost dragon, and it only requires a certain amount of energy (similar to the physical energy of a living body). In a severe cold environment, the energy of the frost dragon will be restored quickly. In other words, as long as spiritual energy is not consumed, the frost can fly
The dragon can circle the planet for several weeks without stopping.
"Hey, is there someone?"
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes slightly. When he flew over the ice valley where the target point was, he keenly discovered two energy fluctuations.
These two energy fluctuations belonging to living things are very secretive and so faint that they are almost undetectable. If Bai Xiaowen hadn't had the insight bonus of the mind-nurturing method and was in a state of alert, he would have been concealed.
Looking at the ice valley, there are some unnatural and messy traces that have been deliberately concealed, and you know that these two creatures are also trying to dig here, and they arrived not early, and they arrived at the same time as Bai Xiaowen. Bai Xiaowen
After arriving, the two creatures quickly covered up and hid themselves.
"Come out." Bai Xiaowen stood up from the frost dragon.
In the white mist, two figures appeared.
"This look!"
Bai Xiaowen's eyes suddenly narrowed. Although these two "people" were similar in size to Earthlings, they had different physiological characteristics from Earthlings.
One of them has fine scales on the top of the head, eyebrows, beard and other places where hair should grow.
The other has a slightly hunched back and a row of thick manes on the back of his neck.
"Who are you? Aren't you afraid of attracting monsters from this planet when you appear in such a high profile?" The mane man spoke, speaking in an unknown language that Bai Xiaowen couldn't understand at all. However, the fluctuations in his thinking when speaking were still able to
Let Bai Xiaowen understand.
Bai Xiaowen looked at the frost dragon at his feet. By high-profile, should he mean flying and appearing on a frost dragon?
"Oh, this is my summoned beast."
Bai Xiaowen quickly disguised himself as a summoner. This is a bit strange, because he can be regarded as a summoner in the first place.
Bai Xiaowen jumped off the frost dragon, patted the latter's neck, and said with a hint of pride: "I encountered a few monsters from the local planet on the way, but they were all bitten to death by my dragon. It is very strong.
,Ha ha."
The mane man and the scale man looked at each other, both showing a hint of disapproval.
There is a level 17 lord-level summoned beast, which is indeed a good combat power, but in the place of origin, it can only be regarded as the bottom level.
"You'd better be careful," the scaly man said dissatisfied, "Don't think that killing a few bottom monsters is a big deal. The monsters in the Labyrinth of the Gods are very scary, especially after there is a big movement, they will swarm
Show up. If you ruin our good deeds, I won't forgive you."
Bai Xiaowen seemed to have a good temper: "I understand. What are you doing? Are you digging for something? Can I join in?"
The mane man glanced at Bai Xiaowen and stretched out a big brown hand: "Okay, let's get ten deification cores first."
The scaly man said in agreement: "Yes, we discovered this place first..."
Bai Xiaowen hugged his shoulders, looked at the two alien friends, and said with a smile: "Forget it, I won't join for now. I'll wait until you dig out the things."
Of course Bai Xiaowen knew that there must be a planetary portal buried under the ice valley. Perhaps because it had not been used for a long time, coupled with the geographical location, the portal was buried extremely deep and it would not be easy to dig it out.
Bai Xiaowen took the initiative to join and did not want to sit back and enjoy the benefits. Unexpectedly, it became an excuse for two aliens to blackmail him.
Sometimes, good people really can't do anything. It's better to wait for the two aliens to help. Anyway, they can't dominate the portal all the time.
When they are used up, Bai Xiaowen can use it again. Unlike the teleportation array, the teleportation gate is indestructible.
The two aliens looked obviously unhappy.
The mane man hummed and said: "If you don't join now, when we dig out the treasures and you want to share the profits, it won't be that cheap."
The scaly man added: "I won't give it to you at all!"
"Ah, it doesn't matter. I am a very responsible person and will never use my frost dragon to steal your treasures." Bai Xiaowen gave the two of them a reassuring thumbs up and smiled.
"Hmph, just a lord-level summoned beast..." the mane man muttered, his disdain almost palpable. He stopped talking nonsense with Bai Xiaowen and concentrated on digging the ice with the scale man.
