"Elder, I am friends with Han Mofei of your sect, and Brother Han has been killed in order to cover my escape. We get a portrait from an ancient ruin that depicts the Chosen One. I came to the altar desperately to tell you the news. ”

Wu Song said.

"Is there such a thing?" the elder raised an eyebrow, obviously taken aback, "It would be nice if you came a day early." Our Sect Master has already traveled to Storm City with four Chosen One candidates. ”

"I've heard about this from Miss Ning Yan," Wu Song said, "So, please ask the Elder for permission to let me go to Storm City immediately." ”

"It's not impossible for you to go to Storm City, but the journey to Storm City from here is not short, and there may be monsters attacking on the way, and there will be a lot of dangers. The elder said.

"It's okay, I can handle it. Wu Song said confidently.

The elder thought about it for a while, and finally said, "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll let Ning Yan be your guide, and the two of you go to clean up now, and then head to Storm City." ”

The climate in the Far North is very cold, so the first priority is to prepare warm clothing.

Ning Yan found a thick leather coat for Wu Song and asked him to put it on. Then he took a fur hat and put it on for Wu Song.

Then, Ning Yan prepared dry food for the two. Everything was ready, and the two set off.

From the main altar to Storm City, there are a hundred miles of land. The climate in the Far North is very cold, which affects the speed of travel, and at night, the temperature drops so low that it is impossible to walk, so the two of them need to walk for two days.

Wu Song had never been to the Far North before, and thought that it was the same as peace, and it was nothing remarkable. As a result, after the end of the first day, he was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to eat.

The ground was covered with snow up to half a meter thick, and it took a lot of effort to take every step. Moreover, the air here is thin, and with Wu Song's cultivation, he still feels suffocated several times.

Although Ning Yan's cultivation is not as good as Wu Song, he has grown up here since he was a child, and he has long adapted to the environment here, so his condition is better than Wu Song's.

"People who come to the Far North for the first time have this reaction, come and drink some water, eat something, and take it slowly. Ning Yan handed a bag of water and a bag of dried beef to Wu Song.

Wu Song leaned on a stone, panting, and reached out to take the thing handed by Ning Yan.

"I didn't expect to be so tired," Wu Song said, "On the flat ground, the most tiring thing is to rush the mountain road." But the mountain road is flat compared to here. ”

Ning Yan said, "I've never left the Far North, I don't know what it's like outside, I really want to take a look." ”

"That's easy," Wu Song said, "When we get to Storm City and I find Yunrong, you can leave here with us." ”

"Then let's say so," Ning Yan said with a smile, "You can't go back." ”

"No repentance. Wu Song said.

After eating, Ning Yan began to take out the shovel and dig holes in the ground.

"What are you doing?" Wu Song wondered.

"Dig a hole and we sleep in it at night. Ning Yan said, and the shovel in his hand dug out a piece of ice and snow vigorously.

"Sleeping in an ice cave?" Wu Song opened his mouth wide, "Then we can't freeze into ice lumps at night?"

"You're thinking wrong again," Ning Yan said with a smile, "Sleeping outside, we will be frozen into ice lumps, and sleeping in the ice cave will be warm." ”

Wu Song let out a breath, not knowing what to say. Everything here did not match the experience he had accumulated on the flat ground, and he felt at a loss.

Soon, Ning Yan dug an ice cave that could accommodate two people. She spread the blanket she had brought with her at the bottom of the cave, then took out another blanket and covered it over the top of the ice cave.

In order to prevent the blanket from being blown away by the wind, a thin layer of snow was also covered with the blanket.

"Alright, it's almost night, come in. Ning flue.

Wu Song looked at the sky, the sky was bright, and there was no trace of night at all.

Ning Yan saw Wu Song's doubts and said with a smile, "It's different here, it's daytime now, and it's night in a blink of an eye." When the temperature plummets, people can't stay outside. ”

Wu Song obediently entered the ice cave, and then Ning Yan also entered. She completely covered the ice cave with the blanket above her head.

Sure enough, as Ning Yan said, at the beginning, through the blanket on his head, he could see that it was daytime outside. But after a while, it was pitch black outside.

At first, Wu Song thought that it would be very cold in the ice cave, but slowly, he actually felt a little warmer.

Wu Song sighed in his heart, the world is so big, it is really strange. Slowly, Wu Song fell asleep.

The next day, the two continued on their way.

Ning Yan had been to Storm City several times before and was very familiar with the path.

At noon that day, a few miles in front of the two of them, a low mountain appeared. Ning Yan pointed to the mountain road, "Over that mountain, it's Storm City." ”

Thinking that he would be able to see Yun Rong soon, Wu Song was immediately full of motivation and hurried forward at full speed.

The two of them were walking on a flat ground, and they were walking, when suddenly they heard a clicking sound.

Wu Song looked around suspiciously, surrounded by endless flat land, the land was white, and there was nothing except ice and snow.

He saw Ning Yan's brows furrowed, listening intently.

"What's wrong?" Wu Song asked.

There was another click, close to them. Ning Yan's face suddenly changed, he squatted down and quickly cleared the snow on the ground.

"Oh no, it's not the ground under our feet, it's the ice, we're walking on top of a frozen lake. After Ning Yan cleared the snow, he saw a thick layer of ice underneath, "Hurry up, it is estimated that the ice surface is about to break." ”

As he spoke, Ning Yan ran to the side. Wu Song landed beside Ning Yan with a little foot, hugged Ning Yan, and said, "Hold me tight!"

Ning Yan hugged Wu Song, Wu Song showed his skills, jumped out, and landed a few meters away.

The clatter continued to sound behind the two of them, and the ice cracked, and the snow on it rose into the air, raising large flocks of snow in the air.

Between a few ups and downs, Wu Song came to a distance of dozens of meters.

At this time, the clicking sound finally stopped, and Wu Song stopped and turned his head to look behind him.

I saw that the ground in a radius of more than 20 meters behind me had become a mess. When the ice shattered, it stood on the water, looking like a town after an earthquake.

White gas continued to emerge from the ground, and soon a layer of white gas gathered on the ice.

At this time, Ning Yan was still holding Wu Song, and Wu Song could feel that Dao Ning Yan's body was trembling slightly, obviously having palpitations.

"It's okay. Wu Song comforted Ning Yan.

Ning Yan exhaled and said, "I'm scared to death, just now we only need to run one step slower, and we will fall into the ice water below." In the middle of nowhere, and there is no fire for us to keep warm, we will really be frozen into ice lumps. ”

"Don't worry, even then, I have a way to keep us warm," Wu Song said, he thought to himself that he had Feng Mingjue by his side, even if he fell into the water, he was not afraid, "Let's continue to hurry." ”

Ning Yan nodded, and was about to turn around to leave, when he suddenly saw something in the distance.

"What do you see is that?" Ning Yan said, pointing not far away.

Wu Song looked in the direction she was pointing and saw that at a distance of six or seven meters, the broken ice surface seemed to be parting to both sides, as if something was moving in it.

Wu Song narrowed his eyes and looked carefully. However, calm has returned to the ice.

Wu Song looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see anything abnormal, and said, "It is estimated that it was caused by the impact of the current, let's go." ”

Ning Yan didn't see anything, so he nodded and turned to leave.

The two walked out more than ten meters, and Wu Song suddenly felt a cold neck, and suddenly turned his head to look. There was nothing behind him, still a white expanse of ice and snow.

Could it be that he is too careful, Wu Song thought in his heart. Just now he suddenly felt a hint of danger, an instinctive reaction that he had cultivated after countless births and deaths.

But why didn't you find anything?

Wu Song pondered for a moment, and was about to turn around and walk, when suddenly the ice under his feet suddenly shattered, and a huge thing burst out from below.

Wu Song reacted extremely quickly, and the moment the ice surface shattered, he hugged Ning Yan and jumped up a few meters away.

"Roar!" a loud roar resounded through the air.

Wu Song looked up and saw a huge white bear standing not far away, it was it that rushed out from under the ice just now.

The white bear is three meters tall, with white fur all over its body and long, sharp claws on its thick limbs. At this moment, the white bear's scarlet eyes were staring at Wu Song and the others.

"It's a long-haired bear!" Ning Yan exclaimed in horror.

The long-haired bear is a monster beast born in the far north, they are bloodthirsty and cruel, not afraid of the cold, and often hide under the ice to hunt. Moreover, they have rough skin and thick flesh, and ordinary swords cannot damage them at all.

The long-haired wild bear roared, moved his fat body, and rushed towards Wu Song.

It raised one of its front paws and slapped Wu Song on the head.

Wu Song launched the Celestial Elephant Fist, raised his right hand to hold the front paw of the long-haired mad bear, and struck it in the chest with his left fist. The punch was so powerful that the long-haired bear was knocked back a meter, and his feet plowed two deep notches on the ground.

The furious bear grew even angrier, waving its claws and attacking again.

Wu Song was taken aback, he had already used all his strength for the punch just now, and there were tens of thousands of catties of strength in his fist. In the past, no matter what kind of demon beast it was, if it was punched by Wu Song, even if it didn't die, it would be seriously injured.

But this long-haired mad bear was attacked by Wu Song head-on, and it was as if nothing happened, which shows the strength of its defense.

Wu Song estimated that it would be impossible to win by simply using brute force to deal with the long-haired mad bear, and as soon as the technique changed, he launched the divine blade without a shadow, and there was an extra Yuanli long sword in his hand.

Wu Song's body was faster than lightning, avoiding the attack of the long-haired mad bear, and his body turned to its back, and the Yuanli long sword slashed horizontally across its broad back.

The Yuanli longsword was extremely sharp, easily cutting through the flesh of the long-haired mad bear, leaving a long hole in it.

Wu Song succeeded in one blow, retreated and retreated, retreating to a few meters away.

He turned his head to look, expecting to see blood spurting from the hairy bear's wound, but it didn't.
