Chapter Ninety-Three: In the Cold, the Heat Wave Rolls In
The mountain family suppressed the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range for generations, resulting in such a decline.
But not many people know the truth.
Most people's understanding of the Mountain Family is limited to the Mountain Monument Boring, the seventh-ranked divine soldier in the Hung Spirit Realm.
Xue Hong knew that after the north slope was the mountain family, but the people of the mountain family didn't know him.
It was not his intention to snatch the mountain monument for a long time.
Walking in the wind and snow, although the footprints are deep, they will soon be swept away by the wind and snow.
It is absolutely impossible to identify the direction on the northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range by relying on the footprints.
Therefore, very few humans are willing to go deep into the northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range.
If you don't have a good sense of direction, it's easy to get lost.
Perennial wind and snow, no day, only a coniferous forest with no end in sight.
On the first day Xue Hong came to the north slope, he was quite calm, and he didn't even come into contact with a demon beast.
But after the temperature plummets at night, it is not so pleasant.
It's not easy to find a shelter from the wind.
Xue Hong searched for a long time before he found a depression.
It's still windy, but it's much more comfortable than on flat ground.
Xiao Mian was not very satisfied, and quickly arranged a formation.
The moment the formation was formed, there was no wind and snow around.
Xue Hong couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Xiao Mian: "Good job!"
Although Xue Hong had also learned the knowledge of formations, he couldn't do it if he wanted to form a formation as quickly as Xiao Mian.
The most important thing is that most of the formations arranged by Xiao Mian can operate without spirit stones, and only need some special activation methods.
The formation, the basic formation is definitely inseparable from the spirit stone.
But if you can understand the formation to the point of being superb, you will know that in fact, as long as the formation can resonate with the aura between heaven and earth, it does not need the support of spirit stones.
If you go further, the top-level formations are all echoing the Great Dao, and the spirit stones are even more useless.
There are few people in the Hongling Realm who can understand the formation to the realm of Xiao Mian.
With Xiao Mian's formation, it's finally not so cold.
It's not far from the southern slope, and there are occasional warm currents, so it's not too cold.
If you really reach the heart of the northern slope, it will be really cold.
It is said that the coldest place on the northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range can even freeze souls.
It's scary to think about.
What kind of cold can freeze the soul.
But something like that did happen.
To this day, there are still some souls that have been frozen for thousands of years on the northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range.
The body turns to powder at low temperatures, and the soul is permanently frozen.
What kind of state the soul is like when it is frozen, I am afraid that only those who have experienced it can know.
The Heavenly Demon Mountain Range was so dangerous, Xue Hong had already done a detailed understanding of it before entering.
The real extreme cold is just a small area.
As long as you avoid that area, the other areas are cold, but they don't freeze your soul.
I'm afraid that I will lose my way and panic, and if I set foot in the extremely cold area, it is basically a way to go.
In fact, even the demon beasts of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range would stay away from the extremely cold region.
Demon beasts that are accustomed to the cold environment dare not set foot on it, let alone humans.
The night on the north slope is not dark.
The white snow and ice reflect the light.
Xue Hong repeatedly simulated the passage route in his mind.
Once disoriented, it is dangerous.
Xiao Mian has already fallen asleep after eating Jindan.
No matter how harsh the environment is, it can't stop Little Cotton from sleeping.
Xiao Mian has three hobbies: eating golden pills, sleeping, and arranging formations.
Although the wind and snow are blocked by the formation, the cold will still hit in bursts.
Xue Hong's clothes have changed from thin caftan to thick cotton clothes.
But it didn't work.
It's really cold, no matter how thick it is, it's useless.
At night, there may be demon beasts, and Xue Hong has to be careful.
In such a harsh environment, even some demon beasts with a very low realm have also cultivated powerful hidden skills.
The demon beasts living on the northern slopes of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range will definitely starve to death if they don't have a strong hunting ability.
Concealment and stealth have become compulsory courses for all monsters.
It's not hard to sneak in such an environment.
After all, there is white snow and ice all around, and if you turn yourself into a white color, it will be difficult to be noticed.
The wind and snow were all over the sky, blowing all the breath.
Xue Hong's powerful divine sense is also difficult to function.
In the second half of the night, Xue Hong suddenly realized.
It was strange that two people appeared within the range of his senses.
On the southern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range, there are many humans who have set foot on it.
But on the northern slope, few people are willing to enter, except for the mountain people.
The environment is too harsh.
Because few people have set foot on it, the materials on the northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range are very expensive.
The fur, blood, scales, claws, and the like on the monster's body are all worth a lot of money.
There are also some medicinal herbs that grow under the snow and ice, which are also very expensive.
At the end of the day, there are too few people entering.
These materials are too difficult to obtain, resulting in higher prices.
Hunting a demon beast on the northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range will yield more than ten times the reward on the southern slope.
Rao is so, and few people are willing to come.
Even if you enter the north slope, you are only moving on the periphery.
Xue Hong's location is only 100 miles away from the dividing line between the north and south slopes, and it is not unusual to have human footprints.
What really made Xue Hong wary were these two people...... There was a strong heat wave on his body.
Even in the wind and snow, the heat wave on the two of them lasted for a long time.
It's as if they were born that way.
Xue Hong, who was hiding in the depression, didn't want to cause trouble.
So just quiet hibernation.
The two kept wandering around the neighborhood, seemingly looking for something.
After midnight, the two of them just searched around, and did not approach the area where Xue Hong was.
What really surprised Xue Hong was at dawn.
At dawn, those two men disappeared out of thin air!
Xue Hong had been paying attention to the two of them with his divine sense, how could he disappear silently.
The northern slope of the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range is overcast all year round, and basically you can't see the sun once in ten days and half a month.
Little Cotton also woke up.
Xue Hong immediately investigated the place where the two walked through, leaving no breath and no footprints.
Originally, Xue Hong didn't want to cause trouble, but he found something even stranger.
Memories of those two men are slowly fading out of my mind.
Appearance, breath......
They all faded from Xue Hong's mind.
An hour passed, and Xue Hong looked dazed.
He had completely forgotten about the fact that there were two people nearby last night.
But he knew what had happened around here, and his memory was gone.
All the memories of last night are there, except for those two people.
Xue Hong decided to stay here for a day and wait for the evening to see what was going on.
He knew something was wrong, but he forgot what it was.
This state is very strange.
All day, Xue Hong sat in the depression, waiting for night to fall.
In the second half of the night, the two men reappeared, also wandering around, equally radiating heat.
Xue Hong's vanishing memory was also awakened.
Just when Xue Hong was thinking about whether to catch up and find out, the two people suddenly walked straight in the direction of Xue Hong, as if they had found Xue Hong!
