Entering Qianjue Chan Ridge, Li Yuan had his own purpose.
Yuan Yao, however, only cares about the treasures in the auction house.
I don’t know whose hands it will eventually fall into after the beast wave is over.
He was thinking about Dexue Chihuo Ling and Biyun Guo, and he was also hoping for the Earth Fusion Fruit from Duanmu's family in Cicada City.
After a night of adjusting his breath, Li Yuan finally eliminated the fatigue of the past few days.
Although the breath is the same as last night, the energy is very strong.
"What? You seem to be in a low mood. Didn't you eat well last night?" Li Yuan looked at the little girl who was hiccupping outside the tent.
"I'm full." Yuan Yao replied, sighing a little, "Without the Snow-Destroying Red Fire Ling, the Earth Fusion Fruit will be gone."
"Haha. Just let it go." Li Yuan smiled, "It's not far from the Yuanshen realm."
"It's easy to say, I heard that many Yuan beings in the Nirvana realm are stuck in the later stages.
“It is extremely rare to be able to break through and reach perfection, let alone reach the peak of perfection.
"Otherwise, why do the elders of the eight sects need to reach Nirvana to be competent?" Yuan Yao let out a long sigh as his eyes flashed.
Li Yuan stretched and looked at the snow-capped rocks in the distance.
"Little girl knows a lot. However, you may not like the elemental arts inherited from your bloodline." Ling suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Yuan Yao suddenly raised his head and asked, "Why?"
The spirit did not answer.
At this time, the Pei clan members were packing up their tents and preparing to leave.
"Little Yaoyao, pack your things, it's time for us to set off." Li Yuan reminded.
In the distance, Pei Lingling, who had put away her tent early in the morning, stood beside the bonfire with some flames still swaying, her eyes constantly flicking towards Li Yuan and the other two.
"Grandpa, are we just going to leave like this? Will they be in danger if we leave them alone?" Pei Lingling suddenly looked back and asked Pei Zhengnan.
Pei Zhengnan took a deep breath and said, "We are going to the depths of Qianjue Cicada Ridge, and we may not be traveling the same way.
"Besides, I always feel that the strength of the two of them may not be comparable to that of our entire clan combined."
Pei Lingling nodded silently. The little girl last night, no, the senior could see her age at a glance. It was too scary.
"Da da da--"
Suddenly, the sound of a herd of animals running was heard outside the camp.
Judging from the sound, there are at least twenty of them, only twenty or thirty miles away from here.
The sound became louder and louder, and the Pei clan members suddenly became panicked and frightened.
Although they have been living in Qianjue Cicada Ridge for a long time, due to the harsh environment here, except for the Ice Demon Cicada, there are rarely large groups of beasts.
Pei Tianhao strode out, ejected into the air, and landed on the huge rock. Using the cover of snow, he lay prone and looked into the distance.
"It's the Xueyun Lion. It seems to be the team of Duanmu's family in Wangchan City." Pei Tianhao looked back and shouted loudly, and at the same time he jumped down the rock to the front of the crowd.
After everyone heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.
The Duanmu family has a good reputation in the Qianjue Chan Ridge area, and is not a force that is competitive and plundering.
Yuan Yao, who had just packed his things, suddenly became excited when he heard the words "Duanmu Family" and felt an inexplicable expectation.
………
Not long after, dozens of snowy cloud lions appeared on the surrounding rocks, and large tracts of snow fell.
"Xiao Yaoyao, what are you doing? Do you think they will have Earth Fusion Fruit on them?" Li Yuan turned his head and looked at Yuan Yao who was about to rush out.
Yuan Yao was stunned for a moment, then retracted his extended left foot.
How could such a big family carry the treasure with them? They must have a special treasure house just like the Snow Alliance.
"It's indeed the Duanmu family." Pei Zhengnan looked around. On the back of each snowy cloud lion, there were more than a dozen Yuan warriors in green robes, wearing a badge engraved with vegetation on their chests.
There are more than 300 Yuan practitioners in the Duanmu family's team, and there are more than 70 Nirvana practitioners.
An old man with white beard and hair jumped off the back of one of the snowy cloud lions and landed in front of Pei Zhengnan.
"Are you from the Pei family in Qianxue City?"
"Elder Jinghai, we are indeed the Pei family of Qianxue City." Pei Zhengnan responded with his hands raised.
The old man frowned slightly and asked, "Do you know me?"
Pei Zhengnan smiled and replied: "Pei Zhengnan, the head of the Pei family, led his people to beg for food in Qianjue Chan Ridge. He knows about the powerful forces nearby and has seen images of powerful people.
"I have known for a long time that Duanmu Jinghai, the third elder of the Duanmu family, is one of the thirty-six unique ones in Cicada Ridge. I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to meet him today."
Duanmu Jinghai said: "You're welcome. Then I don't need to introduce myself.
"Clan Chief Pei, you are well-informed and should know Duanmu Chengqing of our Duanmu family."
Pei Zhengnan suppressed his smile and nodded: "Duanmu Chengqing is the genius of the younger generation of the Duanmu family. Before he was ninety, his cultivation reached the peak of the middle stage of Nirvana.
"Even among the eight major sects, he is the best on the list of geniuses. I have heard of it."
After praising him, Pei Zhengnan paused and continued: "I know what Elder Jinghai wants to ask.
“It has been a year since the Pei family’s team entered Qianjue Chan Ridge, and the situation in Qianxue City is not very clear.
"I haven't seen Mr. Chengqing in Chanling, so I can't help Elder Jinghai."
Hearing this, Duanmu Jinghai let out a breath, cupped his hands towards Pei Zhengnan and said, "Then we won't disturb him."
He threw a storage bag to Pei Zhengnan, then held a jade slip in his hand and continued: "Please also ask Chief Pei to write down my message mark.
"If you have any news or meet anyone from the Duanmu family, send me a message.
"The primeval stones in the bag should be able to be exchanged for a lot of things."
The Pei family was not from a wealthy family and did not refuse. He accepted the storage bag and wrote down Duanmu Jinghai's message mark.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman from Duanmu's family flew down to Duanmu Jinghai, opened the scroll in her hand, and whispered a few words in her ear.
The two of them glanced at the two figures next to the Xueyun Lion not far away.
"Let's go." Duanmu Jinghai said softly, nodded to Pei Zhengnan, then rose into the air, landed on the back of the Xueyun Lion standing on the rock, and led the Duanmu family's team out of the camp.
………
Half an hour later.
Pei Zhengnan made a farewell gesture to Li Yuan from a distance, and led the Pei clan members to the depths of Chanling Ridge.
The small camp was empty, except for two figures, one tall and one short.
"Little Yaoyao, let's go too."
"where to?"
"Save people."
"Rescue people?" Yuan Yao was confused.
Li Yuan smiled faintly, jumped up, and landed gently on the back of Xueyun Lion, and Yuan Yao followed closely.
"boom--"
The Snow Cloud Lion soared into the sky, crossed the huge rocks, and disappeared into the white snow forest deep in the Cicada Ridge.
………
The feather-like snowflakes dance gracefully in the air and fall freely.
Snowflakes were flying, blocking the view, making it difficult to see the scenery in the distance.
The giant tree with a height of 100 feet cannot be seen clearly for its original appearance. It is covered with snow and forms rime.
"Huhu——"
The cold wind blew, and the snow on the trees fell down with the snowflakes all over the sky.
The snow on the ground was several feet deep, loose and soft, up to the waist.
A group of yuan warriors marched with their weapons, shuttling between the giant trees, no more than a few feet above the ground.
"The snow is too heavy, so find a place to rest first. Wait until it gets quieter before continuing on your way."
The old man at the front of the team raised his arms, and more than a hundred Yuan people behind him were hovering in the forest.
Everyone communicated with each other with very understanding eyes, and then spread out, looking for a place to stay.
"No, there's an ice cloud coming over."
Suddenly someone shouted.
"What's going on? How could we be discovered by these damn guys when we are flying so low?"
"It's probably too snowy. It's covered by heavy snow and the height is a little lower."
"What quantity?"
"Not many, probably about three thousand."
"Get ready to fight!" the old man roared.
All Yuan beings are filled with endless Yuan power, covering their whole bodies with bright light.
Some waved their elemental weapons, and some put their hands on their chests to form seals, frantically performing their elemental arts, and their elemental power swept into the sky like a blizzard.
The violent energy came and Bingyun stopped temporarily.
"boom--"
Dozens of ice demon cicadas less than half a foot in size at the front of the ice cloud were blown away and fell rapidly.
The ice evil demon cicada went crazy, pressed against the ground and spread out against the Yuan Power that kept attacking, attacking the team from all directions.
The team formation was in disarray.
"Lingling, come to my side, you are no match for those things."
"Dad, will we die here?" Pei Lingling's eyes flashed with fear.
Pei Tianhao said: "Dad is here..."
“Clan leader, you can take the elders of the clan and leave, don’t worry about us.
"You are strong men in the Nirvana realm, you may be able to break out." A tribesman shouted.
"Yes. Look at the number. It's far more than three thousand, at least tens of thousands."
"Don't worry, we won't give up on any of you. Besides, it's just a level three monster." Pei Zhengnan said seriously.
Everyone knows that level three monsters are not enough to shake the Nirvana Realm, but there are too many and it is impossible to kill them all.
The longer the battle lasts, the more ice evil cicadas will be attracted.
There are tribesmen who are constantly being hit by the evil ice cicada and turned into ice sculptures.
The humanoid ice sculpture was attacked by the aftermath of the Yuan Power and instantly dispersed, turning into ice powder and falling with the snowflakes.
The eyes of the Pei clan were filled with fear, and they extremely regretted heading deeper into the Thousand Jue Cicada Mountains.
"Is this the end for me, Qianxue Pei?" Pei Zhengnan sighed looking up to the sky, tears filling his eyes.
Although he has the peak cultivation level in the middle stage of Nirvana, he is still powerless against the third-level monsters that cover the sky and the sun.
There are too many ice evil cicadas and they are impossible to repel.
Besides, these guys are committing suicide attacks.
If you want to defeat them, you must either kill them with absolute kingly strength, or make them fear in their hearts and retreat voluntarily.
"boom--"
Just when the Pei clan was feeling ashen and desperate, a blue figure came across the sky.
He stepped on a cauldron filled with nine-colored rays of light, and his whole body was wrapped in thunder, like a thunder god glowing with blue and silver lightning.
The big blue bow in his hand was filled with arcs of electricity and blazing thunder.
Thunderbolts gathered on the bowstring, forming thunder arrows, which were shot towards the Ice Demon Cicada.
The snowflakes flying in the air separated by themselves, leaving behind a phantom of lightning.
The thunder arrows that were continuously shot from the big blue bow disappeared, and then a huge thunder cloud appeared in the sky.
Within the thunder clouds, there was overwhelming terrifying energy that made the Ice Demon Cicada tremble.
Thunder kept pouring out from the thunderclouds, hitting them violently.
The ice clouds fluttering in the sky are like lightning and dazzling thunder.
The ice cloud was penetrated by lightning and shattered one after another, spreading like water-blue flames. Finally, the body of the Ice Demon Cicada was revealed, falling with a rustling sound.
The lightning that rushed out from the thundercloud was like a wave hitting the ice cloud, and the heart-rending roar kept coming out.
The ice evil cicadas that were not struck by lightning quickly spread around, and the black evil aura lingering around them gradually disappeared.
The blue figure wrapped in thunder raised his palm and used Yuan Shu. The huge thunder handprint fell towards the ice cloud nearest to the Pei family's team.
"Bang——"
There was a muffled thunder explosion, and the ice cloud that looked like water-blue flames was directly pressed into the ground by the thunder cloud's palm print.
A huge palm print appeared on the soft snow. Thousands of ice evil cicadas became charred black and lost their life breath. The giant trees around the palm print were crushed into powder.
The heaven and earth shook, ripples spread in circles, and snow splashed.
The faces of the Pei clan members showed expressions of astonishment and hope.
"Ice demon cicada, why did you retreat?"
Some tribesmen looked up at the water-blue flames escaping in the sky. The black evil energy lingering on them disappeared completely and disappeared into the heavy snow flying in the sky.
"I have been walking in Qianjue Cicada Ridge for so many years, and I have never seen the Ice Demon Cicada retreat on its own initiative." Pei Zhengnan also looked surprised.
"Lingling, be careful."
A ball of water-blue flame was approaching Pei Lingling, Pei Zhengnan and Pei Tianhao spoke out at the same time.
Pei Lingling was originally by Pei Zhengnan's side, but in order to avoid the attacks of the Ice Demon Cicada during the battle, the distance was continuously widened.
She only has the early stage of Yuan Dan cultivation. Even if her whole body is covered with Yuan Power, she cannot resist the random attack of the Ice Demon Cicada.
"I'm not even thirty yet, am I going to die like this?" Pei Lingling sighed in despair.
"call out--"
Two silver moons flew across the giant tree, and the tree collapsed instantly. The silver moon went straight to the water-blue flame in front of Pei Lingling.
"laugh--"
In the blink of an eye, the water-blue flame was streaked by the silver moon, fell to the ground, and turned into deep black in an instant.
The falling snowflakes buried the dark black body in just a few breaths.
"Lingling, head."
Another ball of flame, less than half a foot in size, rolled down from Pei Lingling's head.
At this moment, in front of these powerful and suicidal monsters, the woman lost her ability to resist and froze in place.
Suddenly, a black umbrella appeared above Pei Lingling. Water-blue flames hit the black umbrella, causing ripples in the air, but nothing happened again.
Immediately afterwards, the green glow flew out from the black umbrella and turned into a human form. A piece of green light was glowing in his hand, and slightly transparent silver leaves at the four corners shot out and passed through the center of the flame.
"呲呲——"
A very harsh sound came from the flames. Then, the flames shook a few times and converged, turning into a dark black corpse and falling down.
"What are you doing standing still? You don't want to kill or injure more clan members, so hurry up and clean up the remnants."
Yuan Yao stepped on two silver moons and glanced sideways at Pei Zhengnan and Pei Tianhao.
The two of them got excited and took action quickly.
At the same time, lightning continued to pass through the snow in the distance, knocking down the ice demon cicada.
………
The heavy snow has stopped and everything is silent.
The cold sun hung high in the sky, emitting icy rays of light, spreading to the snowy world, and falling rapidly to the west.
In a cave somewhere, there are several bonfires, and the flickering flames are reflected on the rock walls in the cave.
"Thank you two benefactors for saving my Pei family!" Pei Zhengnan handed over to Li Yuan and Yuan Yao.
"I just walked around and didn't do much, mainly Xiao Yuan."
Yuan Yao held his cheek with his left hand, tilted his head, and held a long wooden stick in his right hand to fiddle with the bonfire.
