In a not-so-spacious tent, the flickering firelight danced on a few firewood that was about to burn out, and a small pot hung above the flames.
A few bare bones were soaked in the pot, and as the boiling bubbles bubbled out, the alluring aroma filled the entire tent.
The girl was wrapped in a thick quilt and sitting next to the fire. She stretched out her slender wheat-yellow palms and warmed herself by the fire while smelling the aroma of the meat.
Dip a notched spoon into the pot and scoop up the light-colored bone broth.
The girl blew on the hot spoon, took a sip, and let out a satisfied sigh.
After a few spoonfuls, the pot surface dropped by more than half, exposing several white bones.
Looking at the bubbling pot noodles, the girl licked her lips and said to herself: "Add more water, lest there is not enough..."
After that, she took out a few pieces of ice from the wooden barrel next to her and put them into the pot, and then filled a piece of firewood into the fire.
Watching the ice cubes melting and the pot surface rising, the girl showed an expectant smile. Then she tightened the quilt and rubbed her palms, preparing to continue warming herself by the fire.
At this moment, the girl's expression changed. After groping for a while, she took out a pure black token from the bed.
His fingers passed over it, and a piece of text appeared in front of him.
[Message type: private message
Letter from: Informal member of the Demon Alliance.
Content: Fellow Taoist Zhong Jie, I am willing to help you solve the cold disaster, but I don’t know about the reward. Do you want to do what you said and are willing to give me everything you have? 】
The girl excitedly held the token and quickly replied to the message.
[Don’t worry, I, Zhong Jie, keep my word. I have never broken my promise. I will give you whatever you want. 】
Liu Nianle leisurely looked at the information on the token and felt that he must have hooked up with a rich man and that the debt of 80 million was secure.
Liu Nian sent a letter asking: [I wonder if it is not convenient for you to reveal your location now so that we can meet and get to know each other. 】
The token soon sent a message: [You don’t have to look for me deliberately. When you enter the Beilin realm, shout to the sky, and I will follow the sound to find you. 】
"What a simple and unpretentious way of communication. Is this the willfulness of rich people?"
After sighing with emotion, Liu Nian flew towards the north with joy on his face.
As Liu Nian continued to fly, the temperature dropped significantly. The hot breath he exhaled instantly condensed into ice in the air, and all the small animals that occasionally moved on the snow disappeared.
Around noon, Liu Nian finally saw the scene at the finish line.
The sun was shining brightly overhead, but in the distance there was a storm composed of wind and snow.
The area of the storm is as wide as the river and sea, and it is buckled on the ground in the shape of a hemisphere, like a cage, sealing off the entire Beilin territory.
Looking at the weird storm in front of him, Liu Nian plunged straight into it without much hesitation.
The howling cold wind got louder and louder, and the snowflakes swirled and gathered in the sky under the influence of the wind. The flying snow in the sky had the ability to block the sun.
Liu Nian kept moving forward in the wind and snow. Even with his eyesight, he could only see the scene about two feet away. Fortunately, his consciousness was strong enough that he could sense the surrounding environment even with his eyes closed.
The sharp snowflakes hit him, but when they were half an inch away from him, they were blocked by an invisible wall. What was blocked along with them was the biting cold.
Liu Nian's physique is considered to be very outstanding, and can be compared with those of the same level.
However, the temperature is really too low. Even those who have cultivated the true Nascent Soul realm will probably tremble. If Jiapo's treasured clothes are not activated, Liu Nian may not be able to bear it.
After walking for who knows how long, the wind and snow that blocked the sky suddenly dissipated, replaced by a winter scene.
The sun was high in the sky, and the ground was covered with white snow. There were no snowflakes flying, and there was no cold wind, but the air Liu Nian breathed into his lungs was even colder than before.
Liu Nian glanced back, but still saw no trace of the storm, as if everything just now was false.
"It turns out that the snowstorm just now... was actually a formation."
"Fellow Taoist is right. What you just experienced was indeed a formation. It was set up by me personally. It has the ability to mess up people's directions."
Liu Nian followed the sound and saw three monks dressed inappropriately on the snowy hill not far away.
Standing at the front is a handsome man.
He wore a thin black monk's robe and held a wordless black fan. His face was red and his lips were purple from the cold, as if he was poisoned, but he was fanning extremely diligently.
Compared with him, the other two wore much thicker clothes, with brocade hats and mink fur, and gray fur coats wrapped around their bodies. It looked like they were made of the fur of some animal.
“Er Nian, the guy in the lead, who is frozen and still showing off, is at the late stage of the Yuanying Realm, and the two people next to him are at the early stage of the Yuanying Stage.
Because they don't release their aura as much as Shangguan Jing does, I can't estimate his true strength for the time being.
But thinking about it, it shouldn't be that bad. "
The man and Liu Nian looked at each other from a distance and said with a smile: "Gegege... You are so capable. You don't even need magic power to resist the cold. You are not afraid of the cold just by your physical strength.
Take a look...it seems to be the existence second only to me! "
The tone of the voice was very generous, and one could clearly feel that the praise in the words was not false.
If his voice hadn't stuttered with the cold, Liu Nian would have believed the last sentence.
Although Liu Nian knew that the other party had misunderstood and attributed the contribution of Jia Po's treasured clothes to his own physique, he did not explain this. He bowed and said, "Liu Nian, I don't know your friend's surname."
"Duan...Duan Feixin."
Liu Nian looked calm, but there was some turmoil in his heart.
Recalling the announcement message he had seen before, Liu Danian knew that this guy named "Duan Feixin" had the same purpose as him, and they both came to seize the spiritual treasure, so he was a competitor.
"Fellow Taoist Dao Dao stopped talking after hearing my name. He must know the origins of me, me.... I just don't know if Taoist friend is here, would you like to help me?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not here to help you win the treasure, but to help Zhong Jie solve the cold disaster.
If there's nothing wrong with fellow Taoist, I'll leave first. "
When he said this, Liu Nian began to walk away. It was obvious that he had no intention of asking for the other party's opinion.
While walking, Liu Nian kept an eye on the three of them to avoid being attacked by surprise, but until he was far away, the three behind him still did not make any move.
After confirming that Liu Nian was no longer visible, Duan Feixin immediately shrank and squatted on the ground. The two monks next to him quickly took off the furs on their bodies and put them on Duan Feixin.
"Brother Xin, are we going to let him go like this?" a monk asked.
"It doesn't matter!" Duan Fei said with a smile, "I believe he will come!"
