By the time Wu Sheng had completely explored the long strip of land outside the ice sheet, a full year had passed. After twelve consecutive explorations, he had harvested more than 200 million spiritual sands, and had combined all his true energy into it. The amount has increased to 700 million, which is a net worth of 70,000 colorful stones.
Great progress in cultivation.
He continued to expand his enchantment and worked hard to expand it outwards. The boundary of heaven, earth, heaven and earth reached 3,500 miles in length and breadth. The purpose of such expansion was mainly to see whether his King Yu's divine personality was of middle or high quality, so that Know the time when you will overcome the tribulation.
Although his cultivation has improved greatly, compared with the ice field, this progress is still like the light of a firefly. Even if it is half stronger than before, it is still a firefly or an ant. There is no obvious improvement in resisting the erosion of the ice field's spiritual power. .
On this day, he started his thirteenth exploration. The area he explored was eight miles deep into the inner circle of the ice field.
Stepping into the inner circle for the first time, Wu Sheng immediately felt the pressure increase. When he performed Taoist magic, he seemed to have returned to the peak period of senior Qi refining. The perception of spiritual power had also dropped by half, and the furthest distance was only fifty feet. This kind of The taste is really nostalgic. Therefore, he only dared to go deep into the eight-mile range. When the wind and snow occasionally eased and the weather became clearer, he could vaguely see the snowmen he had accumulated over the past year in the distance, so that he would not lose his way.
After building the first snowman of the day, Wu Sheng started walking along the left side. After going deep into the inner circle, he found that the remains of frozen Hedao and mythical beasts gradually increased. After walking for half a day, he discovered three places. He went forward to search as usual, but found nothing useful, so he could only move on.
At noon, he began to pile up a second snowman. The snowman's arm pointed in the direction he was going.
At night, Wu Sheng piled up the third snowman, and then continued to dig a snow cave next to it to avoid the wind and snow. After entering the inner circle, not only did the speed of daily travel slow down greatly, but even the resistance to the severe cold of ice and snow also weakened.
After twelve explorations, Wu Sheng had already experienced it and was fully prepared. He dug the snow cave deeper, built beams and columns with a row of pine wood brought from the world of heaven and earth, spread it with linoleum, and covered it with ice and snow to completely cover the snow cave.
After the snow cave was dug, he took out the blanket that Fire Fox had spent three months weaving and spread it on the ice bed. He also took out his old friend Zu Ling's circumferential furnace, raised the elixir fire, and warmed up a bottle of spiritual wine. Suddenly warm as spring.
Late at night, the sound of wind and snow outside gradually became quieter. The strong wind that had been blowing for a year and the heavy snow that had been falling for a year suddenly stopped.
Wu Sheng emerged from the snow cave and looked at this land without wind and snow in surprise. He felt uncomfortable for a while, as if he had set foot on this ice field for the first time. After looking around for a long time, I found nothing unusual, so I began to feel the rare silence of the night again.
Without the wind and snow, the field of vision suddenly broadened. Looking around, the white snow made the ground look particularly clear. You could even see the snowman I built a few months ago, two miles away, but the tall snowman was blown by the wind and snow. She is a little out of shape, and her lower body is much thicker...
No, it’s not that it’s much thicker, that thick part is moving, it’s a person!
Wu Sheng immediately lay down and crawled backwards back to his snow cave. He looked back and saw that his snow cave was quite hidden and had been blown by the wind and snow for a long time. It looked like a slightly raised snow bag in the snow.
He turned his attention to the snowman two miles away, and saw the figure turning out from behind the snowman, looking back and forth around the snowman.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, Wu Sheng sensed from his body shape and walking posture that this person was definitely not Wanbaochang.
Since it's not Wanbao Chang, it's better not to meet each other. Safety is the first priority. Who knows what the other party is thinking?
But things never go as planned, and things come to you if you don't want them to. The man soon discovered that the snowmen he had just piled up in the wind and snow today were rushing towards him.
Two miles apart, in the clear snow, the other party arrived in a matter of seconds. Wu Sheng didn't even have a chance to turn in, and he didn't know what it was like. Stacking snowmen is an important way to prevent yourself from losing your way. It has saved your life many times in the past year. Who would have thought that the wind and snow would stop tonight?
He lay down in the snow pit, carefully observed the way and means of this person's running, and quickly came to the conclusion that there was something wrong with him.
In this ice field, this person's cultivation was suppressed to the level of God Refining, which was much stronger than his own.
Now that the matter has come to this, it is better to stand up openly and hide secretly, which will make you look guilty and be underestimated by the other party. Having seen too many remains of Hedao who died in the ice field, Wu Sheng knew that in this Jedi land, it was completely different from the fertile wilderness. There was no reason to explain. Once the weakness was revealed, there was a high possibility that the opponent would become the target of harvesting the immortal godhead.
The snowman piled up in the wind and snow during the day was only twenty or thirty feet away from his snow cave. The man went straight to the snowman. When he reached the snowman, he suddenly woke up, sensed Wu Sheng's presence, and turned around suddenly , facing Wu Sheng.
This is a Taoist priest with an ordinary appearance. Among the crowd, he would be the most inconspicuous. The only strange thing was that his ears were slightly larger than others. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Wu Sheng could faintly see his ears trembling slightly.
Wu Sheng stood on the edge of the snow pit, silently watching the other party. Under the silent gaze of the other party, both of them were fully on guard against possible surprise attacks by the other party.
In the ice and snow, Wu Sheng's fists were filled with sweat.
I don’t know how long it took, but the Taoist priest suddenly moved. He clasped his fists carefully and bit by bit, deliberately slowed down his movements, and sang to Wu Sheng: "This fellow Taoist has invited me. May I ask your name? Which life did you come from?" Poor Taoist Taipingshi Xuan Mingzi is so polite!"
Wu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and was willing to say hello. This showed that the other party had no intention of attacking immediately, and there was still room for discussion!
"In the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Sheng met Taoist Priest Xuan Mingzi." Wu Sheng thought for a while and tried to establish friendship: "In the Taiping Era, did Taoist Priest know Liu Ping and Zuo Ci?"
Xuan Mingzi stroked his beard and nodded: "I know, but I don't know that Fellow Daoist Wu and the two of them..."
Just the word "knowledge" cannot tell the difference between friends and enemies. In the same life, there are both friends and relatives, and there are enemies. Even in the Spring and Autumn Period, there were three evil cultivators, the Skeleton Patriarch, the Kunlun Taoist and the Blood Crowzi, who were against the academy. , which goes against the Taiping Era, the Yunji Era, the Sou Shen Era and other eras where cultivation flourished. He didn't make it clear, so Wu Sheng didn't dare to say it clearly, so he had to say: "In some dealings, they encountered difficulties before and paid me to come to solve their problems."
Xuan Mingzi continued to nod, and continued to hold his hands: "Disrespect, disrespect!"
