Chapter 41: A Cold Night
Piercing the iron cone deep into the crack in the ice, Chen Xi endured the sharp pain in his chest, although it had been three days since the battle with Bo Qi, the wound was still affecting his climbing!
It's not night, but the darkness of the sky makes it a little hard to tell the way ahead!
The whistling wind and snow, the cold wind and fog soaked his clothes, and quickly turned into ice cubes, and the leather clothes on Chen Xi's body were already full of ice picks, so he had to be glad that he had changed this clothes!
The cortical layer of water made him feel better, and although he still felt cold, there was no ice to speed up his body temperature.
It doesn't reach the top of the mountain, or even the mountainside of the Giant God Peak, but it is the watershed of the entire mountain that accumulates clouds on the mountainside!
Upward, this is where the Sun Sect is located!
The mountain peaks resisted the air currents twice, and the hot air floating from the sea in the distance was left mixed with the cold air of the snow field, so that this place was raging in the wind and snow all the time, and there were no thunderstorms and hail, and it was already the mercy of the goddess of dawn!
And the previous trial mountain path was opened, that is, in order to avoid more dangerous times, in the whole year, for only two months, this place will be in a safe state, and the rest of the time, no mortal can get close to the top!
At this time, what threatened Chen Xi's life was not only the wind and snow, but more seriously, the steep snow peaks consumed Chen Xi's precious physical energy all the time, and the plateau, lack of oxygen made him almost faint!
Looking at the ice wall that was about to go up another hundred meters, Chen Xi had to stand on the raised rock that he had finally found and gasped for breath, trying to breathe more oxygen for himself!
At this time, Altlin's situation is better than his, and living under the snowy peaks for a long time has made him more accustomed to the environment here!
Good physical fitness, let him get used to climbing the cliffs here!
Compared with Altlin, the only advantage that Chen Xi can get is the hand guard!
At this point, he had changed his mind about the treasure he had received from Shurima, and he no longer thought it was a replica of Ezreal's gauntlet!
In the cold wind, after the gauntlet is opened, the powerful wind force is not only blocked by the shield, but also becomes the source of the gauntlet's energy!
This kind of wind energy came even faster than the scorching sun of the desert, which made Chen Xi's light shield consume every moment after it was turned on, which was equivalent to reducing the consumption by half!
The increase in the shield time has skyrocketed his safety factor here, at least, on this cliff, giving him a brief chance to rest!
Compared to the two of them, Ruiz was already fifty meters above them, and there was still no threat to Ruiz here, the latter was still naked, but in the cold wind, the runes on his body also began to flicker slowly, which made Chen Xi feel a lot better!
Soon, a minute passed, and Chen Xi switched the shield to light mode, and the long-term control allowed him to use the gauntlet more subtly, for example, at this time, reduce the brightness and increase the temperature instead!
Therefore, on the rock wall, Chen Xi's right hand still remained unfrozen, allowing him to better control the mountaineering pickaxe!
Although the gauntlet's ability to absorb energy is greatly reduced without the light shield activated, the low energy consumption of the light mode still keeps the two in balance!
On the mountain wall, several figures were climbing with difficulty, in the cold wind......
At a height of 100 meters, it took everyone a full three hours! The spirit of not being able to relax at any time put them in a state of high mental tension, but the platform above made them relax all at once!
"This is the halfway cave! Goddess Dawn Protection!"
Looking at the scene ahead, Altling made a strange gesture with his hands on his chest.
"Where have you been?"
Chen Xi looked at Altlin's appearance and asked.
"Lord Divine Favor, this place has already passed the halfway point of the Giant God Peak, and after passing through here, you have already arrived at the Divine Domain! The Burning Sun Sect is on it! And this is the resting place that the God has given to the practitioners!
Despite what Altlin said, Chen Xi didn't see anything like a cave!
Ruiz, who had come up early, stood in front of him, where the platform was recessed inward to slow down the wind and snow, and the road ahead was on a narrow mountain road on the right!
"According to the records, after ascending here, we have to advance about a few hundred meters before the halfway cave, so we have to walk for a while!"
Although the cold wind here is a little quieter, it is still full of wind and snow, stepping on the snow, the three of them walked towards the narrow mountain road, and under extreme exhaustion, they only told Chen Xi with a trace of reason that they can't rest here!
Fortunately, the information that Altlin got from the clan was correct, and a few hundred meters later, a small cave was in front of him!
The entrance to the cave was not facing the direction from which the wind and snow were coming, which gave it a better ability to dodge, and the three of them walked in quickly.
Making a fire, barbecuing meat, and setting up a tent, Chen Xi forced himself to finish a piece of barbecue, and at the same time warmed some of his stomach with hot water, and then fell asleep with extreme exhaustion!
This night, Chen Xi slept the most down-to-earth night, maybe he spent the most dangerous place, maybe he was tired and didn't think about other times, his heart only had a good sleep!
The sound of the cold wind whistled Chen Xi to wake up from his sleep, opened the tent, Chen Xi walked out, and the wind was louder!
"You're awake!"
At the entrance of the tent, the bonfire was still flickering, and Chen Xi sometimes wondered how many dead branches Ruiz had brought, or that space was not a storage space, but a space door that shuttled to other places!
However, this is not the time for Chen Xi to think wildly, the wind outside is very loud, and Chen Xi doesn't remember that the weather was so bad when he came up!
"Thankfully, we climbed up! It's a cold night outside!"
"Cold night?"
Chen Xi turned around, and outside the entrance of the cave, he couldn't see anything, because it was not night when he slept, and the reason why the sky was not bright at this time was also because of the wind and snow.
"Well, it's a cold night! This is one of the abnormal weather of the training season, and it is also the most severe experience of the goddess! All those who have spent it have only arrived at the halfway cave at the previous moment! And their physical condition is not bad!"
"It's good that I'm following you and Master Mage, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to come up!"
Altlin looked happy and scared!
"Oh!"
Chen Xi didn't think about anything else, even if it was a perfect rest, his head was still drowsy, and his stiff hands and feet couldn't help but stretch out to the bonfire.
