"..."
Chu Ming stared at An Muxi's slightly embarrassed face with an indifferent expression, and he could clearly feel her delicate body trembling slightly on his right arm.
When he got this map, he discovered that Hanhai City was located in Anguo, but he was too embarrassed to ask in front of Old Man Shengdan just now.
Now after embarking on the journey, he found an uninhabited dense forest and planned to "torture" An Muxi about what was going on.
"Well, with so many countries and sects in the Northern Territory, it's normal for one or two to have the same name, right?"
Obviously, An Muxi continued to argue without giving up, but her child-like deceitful behavior made Chu Ming feel both funny and helpless.
"Senior sister, are you really not going to tell me?"
"What do I have to say...Ah!"
"Chu Ming, you bullied me again!"
, she leaned down next to Chu Ming's ear and begged for mercy in a soft tone with a hint of crying.
"I was wrong, I said..."
"Where did you go wrong?"
"?"
An Muxi obviously didn't expect Chu Ming to ask such a question, and for a moment he blinked his beautiful eyes blankly and felt at a loss.
"I...it was my mistake that I shouldn't have kept this from you."
An Muxi tried her best to control her voice and said softly.
"Let me go first...I'll tell you right now."
"Then say something nice."
Looking at Chu Ming's smiling face, An Muxi knew what he was thinking. She pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before leaning down to his ear again and saying coquettishly.
"Husband, I was wrong, just bypass me."
After saying this, An Muxi's face flushed with shame.
However, Chu Ming really enjoyed the fact that she was usually cold-tempered and only showed such coquettish behavior in front of him, so he no longer used his spiritual consciousness to control Luo Sock, hugged her tightly in his arms, and slowly sat down with her back leaning on the tree trunk. chuckled.
"Next time you hide such an important matter from me, you will have to accept the family law."
"Hmph, what's the family law? It's obviously just bullying me in different ways."
An Muxi snorted and bluntly exposed Chu Ming's inner thoughts, which made him scratch his cheek in embarrassment and asked softly after she gradually calmed down.
"Senior sister, did you really come to Tianyan Sect from such a far away place?"
"Um."
An Muxi hugged Chu Ming's waist tightly with her arms, arched her arms into his arms, found a comfortable position, and slowly narrated.
"Because Anguo is one of the strongest tributary countries of the Vast Sea Alchemy Sect. One side transports talented disciples, and the other side provides blessing and protection."
"Because of my mother's affairs, our family was hostile to almost all the people and officials in Anguo, so we had no choice but to flee from the Hanhai Dan Sect."
"But because Blazing Fire Immortal Sect does not recruit disciples with ice attribute spiritual roots, I can only continue to go north and come to Tianyan Sect to become a disciple and practice."
"Originally, I planned to enter the inner sect and return to Anguo after achieving certain achievements. Who would have thought that the alchemy competition you are participating in this time is actually in Hanhai City..."
An Muxi frowned slightly.
"Although Hanhai City is within the boundaries of our Anguo, it is considered a city independent of Anguo. It was built specifically for alchemists by the Hanhai Alchemy Sect."
"To put it in layman's terms, it is a huge pill market."
"So that's what it is..."
Chu Ming held his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly wondered.
"But senior sister, you don't need to hide this from me, right? Even if I don't know, don't I still have to participate in the alchemy competition?"
"Isn't this because I am afraid that you will regret it and not go back?"
An Muxi lay in Chu Ming's arms and squirmed, speaking softly.
"I want to go back and have a look, but I don't dare to go back alone."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ming suddenly felt a sense of sadness and bitterness in his heart, so he hugged An Muxi's delicate body tightly with his arms again, caressing her back and comforted her softly.
"Senior sister, why do you think it would be troublesome for me not to go back with you? Didn't I already agree that I will help you solve this matter?"
"Of course, if you want to sneak back to Anguo while I'm participating in the alchemy competition, I suggest you don't have such an idea. It's too dangerous."
"Tell me where you want to go, and I will accompany you, so don't hide this kind of thing from me in the future, okay?"
"Um."
An Muxi said "Hmm" obediently, then raised her chin and kissed Chu Ming's face, saying with a shy expression.
"Thank you, Chu Ming, I will never hide anything from you again, so I have something else to tell you."
"?"
besides?
Seeing Chu Ming's slightly stunned expression, An Muxi stared into his eyes and spoke softly.
"You should know that I have a sister named An Muqing, right?"
"She accidentally got lost when she fled Anguo with me, and her whereabouts are still unknown."
"I don't know if she has encountered any danger to her life. If she is still alive, it is very likely that she will be in the realm of Blazing Fire Immortal Sect!"
"The Blazing Fire Immortal Sect?"
Chu Ming couldn't help but said with confusion on his face.
"Why are you so sure?"
"Because she has fire-attribute spiritual roots, and they are innately high-grade, and there are both wood spirit souls and fire spirit souls in the spiritual sea!"
"!?"
When Chu Ming heard this, he was stunned for a moment and then his heart was filled with shock.
You know, wood and fire are incompatible attributes!
How could the wood spirit spirit and the fire spirit spirit exist in one person's spiritual sea at the same time?
Won't they fight each other?
Of course, this was not what surprised Chu Ming the most. What surprised him the most was that An Muxi and her sister not only had innate spiritual roots, but also possessed two attributes of soul at the same time.
In fact, the attributes of the two sisters are completely opposite to each other!
Realistic version of Ice and Fire?
Chu Ming couldn't help but complain from the bottom of his heart.
What a great experience. Who is their mother? She can actually give birth to daughters with such huge differences...
"So, I followed you to Hanhai City to participate in the alchemy competition for another purpose, and that is to hope to meet Mu Qing, although I know this is very unlikely..."
Seeing An Muxi's disappointed look, Chu Ming rubbed her head and comforted her with a smile.
"Don't worry, I believe your sister will be fine. Maybe we will meet her when fate comes."
"What's more, you two sisters are extremely talented and possess two kinds of souls. If you run so far and nothing happens, she will naturally be fine too."
Looking at Chu Ming's gentle eyes, An Muxi's tense heart suddenly relaxed a lot, and then she said with a puzzled face.
"Chu Ming, how did you know that I also have two kinds of souls? I don't remember telling you that I have the wood spirit soul and the ice spirit soul..."
"!"
Chu Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly screamed inwardly.
broken!
How could you forget this!
"Uh... I guessed."
Chu Ming casually made up an excuse and hurriedly dismissed the topic.
"Since your sister has it, I believe that as a sister, you should also have it... right?"
"That's right..."
Although An Muxi still felt a little strange, she didn't ask any more questions. After all, she had unconditionally believed everything Chu Ming said since then.
Chu Ming must be right!
I just have to listen to him!
With this thought emerging in his mind, An Muxi, full of attachment and dependence, once again curled up in Chu Ming's arms and continued to act coquettishly.
"Actually, the main purpose of my trip is to accompany you to participate in the alchemy competition. Don't overthink it."
"hiss--!"
These words awakened Chu Ming and made him think carefully.
Could it be that the purpose of senior sister accompanying me to Hanhai City is not to witness my heroic appearance while refining alchemy, but to go home and have a look?
"Senior sister, I didn't think so at first, but after hearing what you said, I suddenly felt a little awkward in my heart!"
Chu Ming pinched An Muxi's tender cheek lightly, pretending to be angry and said in a deep voice.
"Senior sister, you don't just want to use me, do you?"
"I don't!"
For little girls who are deeply in love, they are often carried away by love and find it difficult to distinguish some very obvious things.
Even An Muxi, who is extremely talented and intelligent, is no exception.
She didn't notice Chu Ming's pretentiousness at all, and explained anxiously.
"I really just wanted to accompany you to the alchemy competition, but when I heard it was Hanhai City, I had other ideas..."
An Muxi's tone became weaker and weaker as she spoke, and she became more and more guilty as she spoke, and finally resorted to her special skill of coquettishness again.
"Husband, I was wrong."
She tightly wrapped around Chu Ming like an affectionate beauty snake. She sat on his lap and twisted her slender waist. She kept kissing her lips on his cheek, blinking her shy eyes frequently.
"Can you forgive me?"
"I remember I said that children who make mistakes must be punished by family law."
"What...what family law?"
"What do you think?"
Seeing Chu Ming's evil smile, An Muxi's eyes flashed, and she took the initiative to move her face to offer her red lips, and said coquettishly after some entanglement.
"You have seen all my body, what else do you want?"
Chu Ming looked around and found that there was no one around in the dense forest and smiled evilly.
"I think this place is just right..."
"no!"
An Muxi shook her head to express her unwillingness, but after seeing Chu Ming's disappointed look, she bit her soft lips and thought for a long time, and finally whispered in his ear with a shy face.
"There is a flower peak in the realm of Blazing Fire Immortal Sect. The mountains and plains are full of flowers, which is really beautiful."
"I think of the flower city at the foot of the mountain and am having fun with you..."
"Without further ado, let's set off!"
Before An Muxi could continue, Chu Ming lifted her up by her hips, summoned the Dior Spirit Sword and flew away.
Huafeng?
I seem to have noticed on the map that it seems that it is about half way to Hanhai City, which takes about a week to fly with a sword.
However, if we use up our spiritual energy to travel as hard as we can, we can get there in about five or six days.
Chu Ming was silently calculating in his heart. He had never felt such desire in his heart, which made An Muxi blush with embarrassment and complained softly.
"I think you just miss me."
"No, I've been waiting for a long time."
Chu Ming placed An Muxi on the golden sword that was separated from the Dior Spirit Sword. He did not hide his bad thoughts towards her at all. He held her tender face in his hands and kissed her deeply in the air until he suddenly encountered a cold current. .
"ah!"
Chu Ming hurriedly hugged the panicked An Muxi, and waved his right hand to summon the invisible shield of the Dior Spirit Sword, and then stabilized the two people's swaying figures.
It's a bit cold!
Chu Ming looked at the setting sun in the distance and saw that it was getting late, so he leaned over An Muxi's ear and asked.
"Senior sister, how about we go down?"
"Um."
After receiving permission, Chu Ming controlled the Dior Spiritual Sword to slowly fall down. After passing through the spiritual mist, a white snow-capped mountain covered in silver was revealed in front of the two of them.
The snow that never melts all year round contrasts with the deep orange glow of the sunset. Countless ice rulers that are hundreds of feet long hang on the edge of the cliff, and the cold and holy beauty comes to your face.
“What beautiful snow-capped mountains!”
Before Chu Ming could utter an exclamation, An Muxi's eyes lit up and he suddenly became excited.
She jumped off the Dior Spirit Sword and ran bounding up the mountain along the catwalk. From time to time she would squat down and pluck the ice lotus from the cracks in the rocks. She would raise it and shake it with excitement, like a child, proudly showing off herself. of trophies.
When Chu Ming saw this, he couldn't help but smile, his vision blurred for a while, and then he suddenly realized that the senior sister seemed to be only eighteen, which is the age when a girl is most delicate and charming.
"Sister, please stop running up the mountain! We can't stay here overnight, we have to find a village or town."
Chu Ming called dotingly, and immediately opened the map. After checking it carefully, the smile on his face slowly stiffened.
What about the village?
What about towns?
He was surprised to find that this group of mountains called Extremely Cold Ice Peak was located in the southwest corner of Tianyan Sect's territory, covering an area of several hundred miles. It would take several hours of sword flying to reach the nearest village.
Want to fly?
Chu Ming looked at the gradually darkening surroundings and couldn't help but sigh.
Flying with a sword at night was too dangerous. Not having good visibility and bumping into other monks was the next best thing. What he was most afraid of was running into monsters with terrifying power.
It's better to find a cave to rest here for a night.
Chu Ming put away the map and was about to call An Muxi's name when the familiar voice that had been silent for a long time suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Chu Ming, the remains of a Holy Moon Ice Dragon are buried in this mountain range."
"It is precisely because of its existence that this snow mountain has been covered with snow for thousands of years. The cold current you just encountered is also related to it."
"I sensed its remaining demon spirit, and it also sensed me."
?
Listening to the dull voice of the black dragon, Chu Ming raised the corner of his mouth with a playful arc and teased in his heart.
"Are you finally willing to pay attention to me?"
Ever since the last time he obtained the "Book of Life and Death of Hundred Demons" from Wu Zuiluo through simulation, Heilong had gotten into trouble with him.
"Chu Ming! Fortunately, I trusted you so much that I even lent you my own dragon bone, but you turned out to be related to the Holy Lord Ten Thousand Foxes!"
Faced with such accusations, Chu Ming looked confused. After some cliché exchanges, he finally understood why Heilong was hostile to Wu Zuirao.
The dragons are lustful by nature, and the fox demons are the most beautiful with their beautiful appearance.
So hundreds of years ago, in order to pursue Wu Zuiluo's mother, the leader of a certain branch of the Dragon Clan gave her the "Book of Life and Death of Hundred Demons".
As a result, she married a fox from her own fox demon clan the next day, which made the leader of the dragon clan half-to-death furious.
Yes, that licking dragon is the father of the black dragon in Chu Ming's body.
"Tsk, tsk, are you still fighting for your father?"
After Chu Ming learned what happened, his words were full of ridicule.
"Haven't you heard the saying, if you lick a dragon, you will die!"
"If someone doesn't like you, you still have to greet them face to face, and even give them precious things like the "Book of Life and Death of Hundred Demons" unconditionally. Who is to blame? "
"Besides, let me put it bluntly, if your father hadn't failed in his pursuit, you might not be around anymore."
Facing Chu Ming's cynicism, Heilong felt very unhappy, but he couldn't find any reason to refute, so he finally silenced his consciousness and ignored him for a long time, until now.
"Humph, I don't want to argue with a young boy like you."
Black Dragon snorted disdainfully, and then said excitedly.
"I can sense the specific location of the Holy Moon Ice Dragon's corpse, and there must still be part of its demonic spirit inside."
"As long as I absorb it, the success rate of reshaping my body will be greatly improved!"
"It's yours who can absorb the same kind of monsters."
Chu Ming said calmly and immediately poured cold water on Heilong.
"This mountain is strange and inexplicable, and there are monsters everywhere. I was so busy that I went to look for the so-called Holy Moon Ice Dragon corpse."
"My senior sister and I plan to find a random cave to rest for the night and set off tomorrow morning."
Chu Ming shouted and walked forward, but the black dragon's deep voice sounded in his ears again.
"Actually, it's also good for you that I absorbed the demon soul of the Holy Moon Ice Dragon."
"It can stimulate the dragon marrow in my dragon bones, allowing you to gain almost 'dragon'-like strength."
"..."
Chu Ming paused, squinting his eyes slightly and thinking for a long time, and finally opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.
At this time, An Muxi, who was tired from playing, quietly came behind Chu Ming in the dark, stood up on tiptoes and covered his eyes, speaking in a low voice.
"Guess who I am?"
"Hmm... Mountain ghost?"
"No, keep guessing!"
Chu Ming couldn't help but smile when he heard the words, and he happily deceived many kinds of mountain gods and monsters in his impression, until An Muxi pouted and said with displeasure on his face.
"No more playing, you can't even guess it from me!"
"I thought my senior sister couldn't be so cute."
Chu Ming turned around and took An Muxi into his arms, resting his chin on her head and speaking softly.
"Senior sister, let's stay here in the mountains for one night tonight. How about setting off tomorrow morning?"
"it's here?"
An Muxi looked around at the dim mountain scenery around him, then raised his eyelids, his expression suddenly full of worry.
"Usually in this kind of thousand-year-old snow-capped mountains, the thick spiritual mist often causes riots at night, and even various monsters appear. Do we really want to spend the night here?"
"Then wouldn't it be more dangerous if we leave in the dark?"
Chu Ming pointed to a direction not far from the mountainside and chuckled.
"I found a cave there, maybe I can take some shelter."
"Um."
So the two held hands and walked slowly forward through the thick snow.
At this time, An Muxi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she stepped back directly behind Chu Ming, stepping on his footsteps and saying with joy on her face.
"This is fun!"
"Haven't you grown up?"
Although Chu Ming was complaining, he still walked at a slightly slower pace, so that An Muxi could reach his next footprint without taking long strides.
Not long after the two of them walked like this, a deep cave appeared in front of them.
Chu Ming first took out the fire fold and lit it, then closed his eyes slightly and quickly scanned the cave with his spiritual consciousness. Then he suddenly opened his eyes wide and his pupils suddenly shrank.
"careful!"
Before he finished speaking, a huge bat with a wingspan of more than one meter suddenly flew out of the cave, its scarlet eyes flashed with a destructive gloom, and its sharp teeth glowed with a cold light that made people tremble.
Chu Ming hurriedly protected An Muxi behind him. Just as he was about to hold the dragon bone and prepare to meet him, he saw an ice-blue snow lotus suddenly blooming above the bat monster's head in the dim cave.
"break!"
As An Muxi groaned, she made a seal with one hand near her mouth, and a hint of coldness suddenly flashed through her slightly narrowed eyes.
In an instant, the bat monster was frozen directly into the huge ice block. The next second, its body turned into ice powder and floated away. The monster landed on the ground and bounced twice.
So... so strong!
Chu Ming looked at An Muxi's delicate profile in surprise, and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
The bat monster just now was at least as strong as the ninth level of Qi Refining Realm. With its extremely high movement speed, it would take several seconds to deal with it.
But Senior Sister, she raised her hand and destroyed it?
"Ice Lotus Seal, this is my best spell."
An Muxi smiled and said to Chu Ming, who had a look of astonishment on his face.
"I used my spiritual sense to detect it. There is only this bat monster in the cave."
"Is it."
Chu Ming chuckled and nodded. He took out the firewood from the space bag and piled it on the ground. He lit it with a fire fold. Then, with the help of the firelight, he came to the place where the bat monster died. He bent down and picked up the light black monster soul. .
I remember that its real name seems to be in the "Book of Life and Death of Hundred Demons".
Chu Ming closed his eyes slightly and sank his consciousness into his Dantian. The "Book of Life and Death of Hundred Demons" suddenly appeared and silently turned over itself until the blood-red page shimmered with fluorescence, absorbing the bat's demon soul.
However, this time he did not plan to use the "Life Order", but used the "Death Order" to summon the bat monster in an unconscious state.
Looking at the bat monster that suddenly "resurrected", An Muxi was startled and made a gesture with one hand to crush it again, but Chu Ming hurriedly stopped him.
"Senior sister, please don't!"
