Chapter 484: The End of the Westward Journey
"So if you want to open it, unless the Divine Power of the Great Heavenly Monarch is restored to the heyday of that year, or if you really find the Nanming Lihu Sword. ”
The Refining Sect Master said this, and she suddenly felt depressed. Gong Zhao continued:
"Yin Jiuyou also attaches great importance to this sword, but after the loss of the God and Demon Prison, he doesn't have much time to find it, otherwise the Nanming Lihuo Sword will not be left in the Great Snow Mountain for you to find. It is made of the remnant soul of the Vermilion Bird as the instrument spirit, and it is mixed with the power of the Western White Tiger's Gengjin. Use it to slash the dragon rope, and the success rate should be about seventy percent. ”
Changtian shook his head and said: "Regarding the matter of Nan Ming's fire sword snow hiding in Ateria, I only heard about it back then, and it is difficult to say whether this matter can be successful. However, after hearing that there is a volcano here, I can understand why the original owner of this sword hid it here. Even if it is an artifact, after leaving its owner for thousands of years, its power will inevitably be greatly reduced, and if the time is extended, it will be wiped out. There is only one way to solve this problem, and that is to find a way to replenish its spiritual or divine power. For example, it has been tens of thousands of years since we forged this dragon rope on my body, but it has been nourished by my divine power, and its power is still undiminished to this day. ”
"Nan Mingli Fire Sword is the same. It is made of the remnant soul of the Vermilion Bird as a machine spirit, so what it needs must be the molten essence. Back then, the sword owner probably discovered that there was a volcano here, so he hid the Nanming Lihuo Sword here. Oh, which is the snow hidden here, it is clearly warm and nourishing, let it absorb the essence of the earth fire to warm up its own body. And you have to be able to afford a divine object like Nanmingli's Fire Sword, the scale of this volcano. It's definitely not going to be small. ”
He then deduced: "That's why the hidden guards found traces of Huanghuali and Liu Rong's wood fossils in the vicinity, because there was originally a large volcano there, but after Nanming Li's Fire Sword absorbed the molten fire essence. The temperature of the ground was lowered by force, and the volcano stopped functioning, and the plants that grew on the side of the volcano disappeared. ”
Dou Er suddenly interjected: "So, why was Bixia grass available there again five years ago?"
Changtian and Gong Zhao did not speak.
Ning Xiaoxian had an idea, but his heart slowly sank, like falling into an ice cellar. yes. Why? In the past, the volcano stopped and the lava solidified because Nanming Lihuo Sword absorbed the essence of geothermal heat, so now the lava flows again and the geothermal heat overflows again, is it because of ......?
Presumably, her face suddenly became ugly. Changtian glanced at her and comforted her: "Silly girl, there are many reasons for the reactivation of the volcano, not necessarily what you think. ”
She smiled at Changtian. Keep your fears in your heart. He was the one who was most worried. There is no need to burden him until the truth is revealed. She turned to Gong Yi and said, "Mr. Gong Yu, do you want to go with us?"
Gong Zhao nodded: "I'm here to pursue you on this trip north." Now that I have negotiated with Changtianjun, it can be regarded as nothing to do, so I will join in the fun with you. I also want to see the demeanor of Nan Mingli's fire sword. ”
Somehow, she felt that Gong's words were matched with his smile, revealing a little sadness, as if something bad was going to happen to him.
But that's someone else's business. She also can't break it.
For the next three days, the brigade headed to the northwest corner of Atalia. Although the scenery of the Snow Mountain is beautiful, she has also seen it for more than a month, the snow-white black mountains, the dangerous peaks and ravines, the first time she saw it, she only felt that her eyes were full of indescribable magnificence, but after seeing it for a long time, it was monotonous. So she basically shrunk in the car to recuperate. By the time she arrived at her destination, her injuries had healed, faster than Chang Tian expected.
It's not easy to find the two people who sold Luoxia grass at the beginning, but it's really not difficult to find the Ulu River. This river is a tributary of a large river, the amount of water is not abundant, and the ice has not yet melted this season, so the whole river is frozen hard, and the hidden guards who have been stationed in this vicinity have launched a search, with the bazaar provided by Dou Er as the center, with a radius of five hundred miles, along the upper and lower reaches of this river to start looking for eligible mountains and tribes.
At that time, the volcano was extremely powerful, so the caliber of this mountain must be not small, and there are precious geothermal resources nearby, and there are only a handful of areas that meet the above conditions. The two teams of hidden guards who arrived earlier had already locked on a tribe after a few screenings.
The style of the hidden guard has always adhered to the arrogance and superiority of the monsters, and rarely restrains unless they are on special tasks. In the past two days, they have almost seen people and asked, and the people in the mountains are no matter how closed the information is, and they also know that many "fairy masters" are coming, and they all tremble and respond with great vigour. Therefore, when Ning Xiaoxian and his party landed, thousands of people were terrified, regardless of men, women and children were crawling on the snow outside the village, and more than ten hidden guards knelt down on one knee, without squinting, and the pomp and circumstance were not grand.
Ning Xiaoxian's team of people and horses looks indeed majestic. The four Boyu pulling the cart are indefinite, full of treacherous taste, occasionally conjuring up the head of the horse body and leopard, which makes people shudder, the shape of the car is simple, although the color is pure black, but the ancient runes engraved on it are shining - Miluo's things never seem too low-key, let alone the white-headed giant eagle that follows closely behind the car, the wingspan reaches more than 50 meters, and when it spirals down from the sky, it can be said to cover the sky and the sun, which is enough to make the most daring ordinary people feel awe.
Yes, awe. When she stepped out of the car, almost everyone in front of her had their faces buried in the snow, and no one dared to raise their eyes to look at her. Ning Xiaoxian sighed secretly in his heart, he was indeed getting farther and farther away from mortals. She doesn't like this kind of style, but the monsters of the hidden stream need it, and Changtian thinks she needs it. After all, the status and status of a superior person will definitely come with the improvement of strength, and he wants her to have the majesty of a high-level immortal cultivator.
She had nothing to say about this. Changtian is a giant demon who is dominant, if she wants to stand side by side with him, how can she not have the bearing and grace of a superior person? Dragon with dragon, phoenix with phoenix, isn't there any truth in this sentence? Even if he attends a celebrity banquet on earth, no man will bring a female companion wearing only a T-shirt and jeans to attend, right? Even if it is a masquerade ball.
So she stared at the crowd for a few more breaths, silent. There was a three-year-old boy in the crowd who couldn't help but look up and looked at her a few times with big black eyes, and the mother next to her lowered her head, not seeing Ning Xiaoxian's smile at him, but her face was so frightened that she quickly pressed his head down.
Ning Xiaoxian pursed his lips and said softly, "Get up." "It wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it clearly, as if it was ringing in their ears. The people of the Pu clan looked shocked, knowing that this was an immortal family's method, and they couldn't help but be even more in awe. Some people peeked at her, only to see that the aunt in front of her was wearing a pink hibiscus makeup jacket, covered with a white fox fur light fur, with a hairpin on her head, and her small waist was only tied with a long spike velvet palace silk, which made her look more and more unbearable.
Unlike her own group of bloated cotton clothes and leather pants, her snow-white skin also reveals two points of redness, and her eyebrows are delicate, which is in response to the painting of "hibiscus is like a willow like an eyebrow", standing there like a peach blossom that has not bloomed at this season, pleasing and pleasing to the eye. Many young men looked at her and bowed their heads in shame.
Ning Xiaoxian didn't care what others thought, he only found out the patriarch here, and let the mortals go home to rest. It stands to reason that the outside temperature here will be minus 35 degrees Celsius, at least minus 35 degrees, and adults will be crumbling for a quarter of an hour, let alone young and frail children. But since she landed, she hasn't felt such a cold.
The tribe selected by the hidden guards is actually a small village, which was bred by the descendants of the Pu clan who fled here from the west three hundred years ago. In this bitter cold place, the lifespan of mortals is generally not long, and the patriarch of the Pu clan is only a man in the prime of his forties.
Ning Xiaoxian looked at this tribe and secretly wondered in his heart, this place has gone hundreds of miles deep into the Great Snow Mountain, it is a place that is rarely populated, and it is located in the bitter cold region, it does not seem to be a good place for human beings to reproduce and grow, how can the Pu clan develop to as many as several thousand? You must know that in the big snow field, many small villages have only more than 200 people, and thousands of people can be called towns, and the gathering place of the Pu clan looks like five or six thousand people.
When everyone greeted her, she hurriedly glanced at it, how powerful the monk's eyesight was, and immediately saw that although the faces of most mortals here were not ruddy, they could not be regarded as vegetables, and although the clothes on their bodies were bloated, they were at least tightly wrapped, and they could be said to be full and warm. There are more than nine months of ice in this place a year, what do the Pu people use to feed their people, so that they have food and clothing?
It's just that she was originally a mortal, and she knew best how mortals could live in old age, sickness and death, and the suffering of being involuntarily uncontrollable. She told Changtian this little emotion, and he smiled slightly: "I'm afraid that the reason will fall on the volcano again." ”
She had a hunch that this might be the end of her long journey west. As an immortal cultivator, she was convinced of her whims. Standing on this land, she inevitably became anxious in her heart, and she couldn't wait to get what she wanted immediately.
The village chief is a very discerning person, seeing her frowning slightly, knowing that the fairy girl is in a bad mood, he didn't dare to be polite with her, so he directly invited her back to his house to sit down.
Most of the houses here are made of logs, which are generally not very tall for warmth, and the roofs are herringbone to make it easier for snow to slide down. The walls, interiors, and floors are made of wood, and the base is made of rock, and every house has a brazier. (To be continued......)
