Before leaving, Li Boxen walked up to the tower again.
The Sensor King who bought Noya likes to parasitize in the human body and change forms to pass the time. This Sumeru man's hobby is also somewhat similar. But instead of burrowing into other people's bodies to be their son, he likes to be a stitch monster.
There were several piles of animal carcasses piled on the second floor, basically all parts. There is also a large monster that has begun to take shape in the middle, with the head of a lion, tiger, elephant, and bear, and its body is colorful and made of the furs of many animals. It has an extremely long body and more than a dozen pairs of legs, making it look like a giant centipede. If placed in the Six Kingdoms, these Sumeru priests would be very similar to those academic scholars - but they should be the wanted ones.
Li Bochen also found two human corpses in the pile of corpses. One of them looked like a soldier. Although he had no armor, he was still wearing cotton lining. The man's head was smashed, blood stained his upper body, and he was frozen to death. Li Bochen took off his clothes and asked Noah to put them on.
The other corpse was cut in half and was wearing a black outfit and a black cloak. What caught Li Boxen's attention was that there was no blood stain on the cloak or clothes. He stretched out his hand to twist the material of his clothes and found that it was extremely smooth. He didn't know what material it was made of, so he took off his cloak and put it on himself.
Then they cut the remaining venison in the hall into strips and wore them. It started to snow again outside, and the three of them took advantage of this time to hit the road.
After walking for five days, the snow was no longer above my head. If it weren't for both of them being extraordinary people and Xu Cheng leading the Yin soldiers to explore the way ahead, he would have froze to death or fallen off the cliff to death.
By noon on the fifth day, the wind and snow stopped again, and the sky was blue without a trace of cloud. Li Bochen emerged from the snow and raised his hand to blast forward. The snow was lifted away by the strong force, revealing the black stones underneath.
But because of his move, the entire snow around him trembled, and then slowly slid downwards, enveloping and pushing more snow to fall together. Soon, Li Bochen began to hear a slight roar and felt the trembling of the rocks under his feet, and the falling snow finally triggered an avalanche with the force of a storm. The valley rumbled like thunder, and the splashed snow foam turned white. The fog covered almost half of the mountain peak.
But this avalanche can only be regarded as a small episode.
Because at this time he was already standing on the top of the mountain - not one of the countless mountains he had climbed over the past few days, but the top of the northernmost, highest and most dangerous mountains in Dangtu Mountain. Looking back from here, you can see all the peaks in Dangtu Mountain, all sitting in a snow-white ocean, as if they are floating on the sea of clouds. But it wasn't clouds, it was snow, or snow mist caused by numerous avalanches in progress.
Looking to the north, the mountain wall on the north side was almost straight up and down. He seemed to be standing at the top of a city wall thousands of meters high. Because of the extremely high visibility, he could even see scenes further and further north - the land was completely white, with ridges crisscrossing it, and at the end of his sight, there seemed to be some extremely faint red dots.
Is that a volcano? Is it a volcano where people from the Demon Kingdom burn mountains to make fire? Li Bochen couldn't help but take a deep breath - if he could really see so far...
So is the world flat? !
He slowly calmed down and looked to the east and west sides. Although hundreds of thousands of troops from the Demon Kingdom gathered to the north of Dangtu Mountain and built a bridge, compared to such a vast land, a mere few hundred thousand was just a slightly larger dot on the earth. Now that he has reached the end of the mountains, he still has to slowly find the location of the Demon Kingdom's army.
So the question now is, should we look east or west?
But Li Bochen was not in a hurry to find the answer to this question. For this reason, the ridge he is currently standing on stretches out an unknown distance to the east and west, as if it is the dividing line of the entire continent. Looking around from here, I feel like the whole world is being stepped on. The sky above the head was so low that it seemed as if one could reach out and touch it. The sound of avalanches all around was like thunder. It was more like the spirit god living on the top of the mountain was angry and pouring out infinite power in all directions.
A mortal might feel awe when seeing this scene, but at this moment, he only felt that this should be the real power - like a mountain, stretching across the earth and indestructible. It roared like a big avalanche and wiped out everything.
This situation also gave rise to another inexplicable emotion in his heart, and he felt as if he had understood something and gained something. However, when he really wanted to concentrate on catching that glimmer of enlightenment, he felt that it was slipping away quickly.
Li Bochen realized that this was most likely a precursor to "enlightenment" - he had experienced two brief periods of unconsciousness in the manor outside Sanguan City and in Mengjiatun. After those two times, he either had a deeper understanding of the techniques of Beichen's lineage, or his ability to control that realm became stronger.
But now is not the right time. He stood on the ridge. If he lost consciousness for a period of time like the previous times, he might find himself trapped in the snowfall and falling downwards when he woke up. But if he really wanted to give up such an opportunity, he felt very unwilling to do so.
He thought for a moment and cast a curse in his heart. A white light flashed before his eyes, and he appeared in the arctic crape myrtle sky.
In the past five or six days, he had frequently mobilized his energy to resist the severe cold, and experienced several fierce battles. He gradually felt that his meridians and acupoints seemed to have gradually broadened due to such experience, and he even felt a sense of sudden enlightenment. Li Boxen wondered if this was a sign that he had succeeded in cultivation and would reach the peak of the Dragon and Tiger Realm.
The reason why I am not sure is because it has only been a month or two since he was promoted to Dragon Tiger. Ordinary people can go from entry to peak in the Dragon and Tiger Realm in as fast as eight or nine years, or in a lifetime as slowly as possible. If what he expected came true, the speed would be too shocking. But then I thought about it, I usually absorb the spiritual power cultivation in this world, and I also have the luck of Beichen. It would be strange if the speed is still the same as that of ordinary people.
He came to this world to wait for that glimmer of enlightenment - if that feeling really came, there wouldn't be any danger here. If not, you can meditate and adjust your breath to replenish the spiritual energy consumed before.
As he vomited, he thought, the previous two times, including this one - what rules can he follow to make himself "enlightened"?
When he was in the manor outside Sanguan City, he was thinking about where the power of a spiritual god to reward good, punish evil, and take life and death came from, or whether such behavior of a spiritual god was considered justice or evil. That time in Mengjiatun, I was thinking about whether I should use my magical power to kill someone if they gave me trouble. Both times, it seems that I was thinking about some metaphysical issues and felt something about it.
But what about this time? When facing the magnificent scene in front of him, he didn't think about anything. Where is this rule?
