In the early morning, the east gradually dawns, and the morning light first shines. The snow-capped mountains in the distance are enveloped in the clouds and mist, like a shy girl, looming. The high snow slopes are covered with beautiful balconies composed of red, white, gold and other colors, which are so beautiful that people will be fascinated by it.
Wu Gen stretched out and emerged from the snow cave. After a night of retreat, I was relieved of all the worries of chaos and felt refreshed. Following his movements, several snowmen quickly ran over not far away. The snow clothes shook off, and the water gathered from Yue, Baoxiang, Qiaoban, and even Qihe was on the spot.
Looking at the icicles on the eyebrows and hair of several people, Wu Gen didn't know that these people endured the biting cold wind and stayed here all night. For a time, all kinds of feelings came to my heart, and my eyes couldn't help but feel a little wet. With this brother, this trip is enough.
"How's it going? How's the retreat going?" Several people asked anxiously.
Wu Gen wiped his face and said with a smile, "Don't worry, most of the chaos has been eliminated, and there is no longer any worry of losing one's soul." After speaking, he gave a serious salute to several people.
Baoxiang glanced at him with disdain, "When did you learn to be so vain and fussy?" After saying that, he walked around Wu Gen, stretched out his hand to lift his clothes, and said doubtfully: "My belly is so small, how can we Where is my nephew?"
"You're a big-headed ghost." Wu Gen, who was originally very moved, immediately lost his power after hearing this. So he told a few people about the fact that Chaos Xing and Lang Guo killed each other, but the disaster of childbirth was avoided.
Several people also felt that it was magical after hearing it, but they did not expect that Chaos Possession would have such benefits. Sure enough, all things are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. If there is no inferiority, there is no superiority. There is always a way to restrain it. This is probably why Chaos cannot dominate the Great Relic Continent.
Shui Congyue frowned, still worried, "Although the chaotic form in the body has lost its mind, it is greedy in nature. I am afraid that after consuming the Langguo's vitality, it will attack the physical body again. Is there any way to restrain it?"
Wu Gen nodded, "I already have some ideas. If it works out, I hope Cong Yue will give it a try. I don't think my martial arts will be even better."
Seeing that Wu Gen was fine, everyone was in a much better mood, chatting and laughing as they returned to the camp. As soon as they entered the camp, the five people stopped and looked at each other.
In the center of the camp, Feng'er's face was streaked with black and white, and she was struggling to make breakfast. Looking at the pile of black things thrown next to the campfire, she knew that she had failed many times.
Seeing the five people coming back, Feng'er turned around angrily and walked out. Her steps were very brisk, and she felt relieved.
Wu Gen gave Qi He a thumbs up, "Brother, you are really strong." In any case, it is a good thing that Feng'er is willing to do these trivial things. Getting some dust and smoke on your body is the beginning of truly being a human being.
The six of them rested for a long time and continued to climb up. But at this time, there was a lot more laughter in the team, and the high snow-capped mountains were no longer so difficult to climb in the eyes of a few people.
Wu Gen walked through the Nirvana Plateau, and guided everyone to avoid places where avalanches might occur, and reached a slightly lower hillside without any danger. Seeing that it was getting late, the six of them decided to camp here.
At night, looking at the desolate snowfield, everyone lowered their guard and fell asleep in the tents. Wu Gen took a short rest, but then he got up and practiced Xuanyuan Technique secretly. There are almost no living things on the snow-capped mountains, which is a natural desert. It is far easier to practice in such a pure place than coming down the mountain.
Strangely enough, Wu Gen was very dull about spiritual energy, but he was very sensitive to the so-called innate energy. After a while, a trace of purple energy suddenly appeared on the body.
The body was like a baby waiting to be fed. It quickly became excited, and the blood was rushing eastward like a big river. It was like a broken bamboo all the way, and it was indescribably comfortable. Even the fire of the soul is swaying crazily, and the desire for innate energy is evident.
The purple energy is very thin and disappears quickly after it enters the human body. At this speed, I don't know how long it will take the monkey year, horse month and month to achieve anything. At midnight, Wu Gen, who was concentrating on practicing, suddenly felt something in his heart, woke up from his trance, got up and left the tent.
On the hillside, the bright moon is like a disk, and the clouds and mist covering the top of the mountain are thinner. The faint starlight shines through, and there are shadows all around, making people feel a little trance-like.
A misty white shadow was swimming slowly in the distance, seeming to be exploring the camp. Wu Gen felt a chill in his heart and looked up, trying his best to see clearly. But the white shadow quickly faded away, blending into the surrounding snow and no longer visible.
Traces, as if they never existed.
In the next two days, whenever people were practicing quietly in the dead of night, Wu Gen would always feel that someone was peeping at him, fluttering and flickering, both real and illusory, but when he looked closely, there was no sign of anyone.
After several days of trekking, the group finally climbed to the top of the mountain in front of them. The fog became slightly smaller, but the wind became more and more fierce, making people almost unable to stand.
The top of the mountain is not cramped. It is obviously a flat area that has been carved out by someone. A blue icicle with five people hugging each other stands in it. The icicles are thick at the bottom and thin at the top, shaped like a conch, extending upward in circles one after another. There are nine steps in total, with the top pointing straight into the sky.
As I approached the icicle, I heard a vague sound, chirping, as if there were countless birds chirping in it.
The six of them curiously looked up and down around the unexpected icicle. Qiao Ben pressed his body tightly against it, with a look of surprise on his face, and refused to let go of the icicle.
"Why are there so many people here?" Qiao Ban suddenly pointed at the icicles and said.
Wu Gen's scalp was a little numb. In fact, when he saw this icicle, he felt a little throbbing in his heart. Qiaoban's words are not nonsense, because he also feels the same way. It seems that the consciousness of hundreds or even thousands of people are active at the same time in the icicle. Although the spirit villain has dispersed, Wu Gen is still very sensitive to this kind of fluctuation in the spirit.
Soon, even Feng'er turned pale and looked at Wu Gen in surprise, moving away from the icicle, obviously aware of the strangeness in it.
Just when he was at a loss, the wind and snow in the mountains suddenly became heavy, and a hazy figure appeared in the snow and fog, slowly walking from a distance. The fluttering snowflakes surrounded the man like flowers and birds, laying a long snow blanket for him.
Seeing this figure, Wu Gen's heart suddenly tightened. This was so similar to the situation he encountered during practice a few days ago.
Everyone stared at the ghostly figure with wide eyes. Gradually, a woman's vague figure emerged from the wind and snow. Just like the guards dispersed, Fengxue suddenly separated, revealing his master in front of everyone
As the woman got closer, the blizzard became more intense. However, the wind and snow formed a narrow road, with calm wind and waves in the middle, and howling wind and snow on both sides.
The woman walked in, wearing a gauze-like white dress and holding it gently with a pink ribbon, as if she was in smoke. Her long white hair was flying, and her face was beautiful, but her skin was missing a layer of blood, making her look extremely pale. The wind blew through her clothes, revealing a pair of white bare feet.
The most impressive thing is the woman's eyes. The black eyes are embedded in a piece of snow-white. They are so black that it is shocking, like a deep pool. If you look at her for a moment, you will feel like you are falling into it.
The woman walked to the icicle, stopped, and glanced at everyone. Everyone who was seen seemed to be seen deep in their hearts, naked without any covering.
When she saw Wu Gen, the woman paused. Wu Gen only felt his soul fire swaying sharply, shivering like a strong wind.
Walking straight to Wu Gen, the woman had an expressionless face, stretched out her right hand, and tied a bell with a red string on her wrist.
Wu Gen was a little confused. The woman's figure flickered in and out, like a shadow in the water, giving people an unreal feeling.
Lingju suddenly flew out and landed in the woman's hand. The woman tilted her head and looked at the fist-sized spiritual residence, her eyes a little more agile.
Wu Gen didn't dare to move. Lingju himself never dared to make direct contact, but the woman in front of him was easily placed in his hands. One can imagine how he could resist if the other party had malicious intentions.
After looking at him for a moment, the woman glanced at Wu Gen, turned around and left.
"Hey, that's mine..." Wu Gen was anxious and took a step forward. The woman suddenly turned her head, but her face was indifferent. A chill rose from the soles of his feet to his forehead. Wu Gen suddenly became more awake and quickly took a step back. "If the girl likes it, feel free to take it. I have absolutely no objection."
The woman didn't say a word and slowly left in the direction she came from. Following his movements, the wind and snow suddenly grew stronger again, covering the woman's figure.
Suddenly, the wind and snow rose straight into the sky, like a snow dragon, pushing through the thick clouds and flying towards the distance. Behind the snow dragon, a winding road appeared
road. Through the passage, the blue sky is like water.
Under the blue sky, a tall snow-capped mountain crane stands above the peaks. The sun shines down, and the peaks are colorful, like a legendary fairyland.
After a long time, the six of them woke up from their trance. It was only then that everyone discovered that they could not remember the appearance of the woman just now, and even the memory of the woman was slowly disappearing, as if it was just a dream, and when they woke up, they forgot what they saw in the dream.
Compared to others, Wu Gen remembered more. He also remembered that the woman had a silent bell tied to her right hand. After all, it was this hand that took away her spiritual home. How could Wu Gen, who had always been greedy for money, endure it.
"This woman is too evil, what the hell is that place?" Baoxiang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and pointed to the snow-capped mountains in the distance, "Should we avoid it? To be honest, we have been there since we were little. , I’m afraid that this kind of person is neither human nor ghost, it’s scary.”
Looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, Wu Gen pondered for a moment, "Since we are already here, and the other party didn't do anything to us, there should be no ill intentions. That's good, I'll go into the snow-capped mountains to explore, and the others will stay outside. If anything goes wrong, you should evacuate as soon as possible." This is also a lesson learned from the Ming clan and his party, so as to prevent the whole party from falling into it.
Shui Congyue rubbed the euphorbia, "It doesn't have to be like this, I'll go with you. Since the other party has discovered it, it's better to take the initiative to greet him and see what's fishy."
"How can that be done? If you want to go together, let's go together." Baoxiang quit, "I'll go too, isn't it just a woman? She can still beat us. The worst is, just sacrifice her appearance."
Feng'er hesitated to speak, glanced at Qi He, but said nothing. Nowadays, Feng'er looks more and more like a little daughter-in-law, and she will pay more attention to Qi He's intentions in everything. She no longer goes her own way in the past. This change makes Wu Gen very satisfied. In this way, the team became more harmonious. Otherwise, if there was such a former sect leader in the team causing trouble, Wu Gen would be drunk.
Everyone walked along the top of the mountain towards the snow-capped mountains. Along the way, no living thing was seen, and the woman did not appear again. However, on the road, another huge blue icicle was seen.
As the saying goes, looking at the mountains is a waste of time.
The snow-capped mountains seemed not far away, with many low peaks in between. It took the six of them three days of walking to reach the foot of the mountain.
More icicles appeared in front of me, extending from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. There are so many icicles, which obviously requires a lot of labor, but until now, I still haven't seen a single person.
Everyone felt a little depressed, as if there was a beast lurking on the side, peering coldly, waiting for an opportunity to attack. When we arrived at this place, everyone knew in their hearts that no matter what was on the snow-capped mountains, the other party must have discovered them long ago. Since we didn't take the initiative to greet you, we could only visit at home.
"Let's go." Wu Gen said hello and took the lead to climb up the snow mountain along the icicles.
