Chapter 65: The Sleeping Beauty on Yi Mountain

Gu Xu shuttled through the cracks in the space, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the top of Yishan Mountain.

Although the cave where the Snow Maiden sleeps is hidden, it is not difficult to find its location thanks to the guidance of the astrolabe and the causal connection of the Brilliant Pen.

Behind the layers of ice and snow, there was a dim hole.

It seems to be unshielded, unguarded.

However, with his profound talisman attainments and the intuition of danger given to him by the "astrolabe", Gu Xu was able to perceive the danger hidden under the ice and snow.

"The prohibition here should not be underestimated." He said silently in his heart.

As far as he knew, the Snow Maiden mastered the way of ice and snow, and could turn ice and snow into everything in the world, giving birth to life from the extreme cold.

Although she was not an expert in the field of formations, she could use ice and snow to achieve the effect of killing formations - if Gu Xu touched the mechanism, the ice edges hanging upside down on the cliff would turn into countless sharp swords and shoot at him in a volley.

However, in Gu Xu's eyes, compared to the national teacher on the floating boat and a large group of monks chasing him, the prohibition here is not terrible at all, and it can even be described as "gentle".

Relying on the "Meteor Walking to the Moon" body method and the crisis warning of the "Astrolabe", he flexibly avoided every key node that would trigger the ban and successfully arrived at the entrance of the cave.

If someone who doesn't know sees such a scene, I'm afraid they will think that he is dancing alone in the snow.

The entrance to the cave is extremely narrow and dimly lit.

But the further you go inside, the more spacious it becomes.

There was also a faint blue glimmer on the walls on both sides, illuminating Gu Xu's vision in front of him.

Occasionally, he can see several animal sculptures made of frozen ice and snow, such as white wolves, elks, cranes, etc., standing motionless on both sides.

Every detail of these animal sculptures is extremely realistic, and every hair can be seen clearly - it always makes Gu Xu feel that they are not like ice sculptures, but living creatures that have only fallen into a deep sleep temporarily.

A moment later, Gu Xu arrived at the end of the cave.

It was a spacious hall, larger than his house in Yishui County, with several stone pillars standing in between, supporting the high roof of the cave, like several tall and mighty giants.

There is a shallow pool on one side of the pillar, into which a thin stream of water flows along the rock wall. In this silent and empty cavern, the voice sounded unusually loud and echoed for a long time.

Gu Xu's gaze fell on the center of the hall.

There is a large block of ice with a flat surface and a faint icy blue sheen throughout.

A beautiful girl was lying quietly on the ice.

She was dressed in a plain white dress, her eyes were closed, and her hands were folded in front of her chest.

Although Gu Xu had seen her appearance in the illusion of the Lu family's murderous mansion, when he met her true body, he still couldn't help but be deeply shocked by her beauty that did not belong to the world.

It is a clean and fragile beauty, and the dark black and holy white outline a dreamlike face, as if the slightest carelessness will dissipate as if it were waking up from a dream.

If it is in a fairy tale, this must be the sleeping beauty who has fallen into the city, sleeping in the castle, waiting for the prince's true love kiss.

But reality is not a fairy tale.

This dreamy girl is not the harmless princess whose fingers will be pierced by a spinning wheel, but a fierce god-level ghost who can bury thousands of people in a blizzard with the snap of a finger.

Gu Xu is not the prince who heroically saves beauty.

He's just a bad outlaw who plans to use the power of the "Sleeping Beauty" to deal with his pursuers, and then take the opportunity to escape himself.

While thinking, he took a deep breath, took out the "Shocking Pen", held it in his hand, and slowly poured the true yuan into it.

He is the new owner of the "Amazing Pen", and Lu Shiyao is the old owner of the "Amazing Pen", and there is a causal relationship between the two that cannot be ignored.

Perhaps with the help of this connection, there is a chance that the Snow Maiden can be awakened from her slumber.

It's just that when the true yuan brilliance on the "Shocking Pen" illuminates the entire cave, the Snow Girl is still motionless and unresponsive.

Gu Xu shook his head lightly, and sighed in his heart: "It seems that you still have to feed ghosts!" ”

Then, he cast the "Qiankun", conjured a sharp blade with a spatial crack, and swiped it lightly in the palm of his hand.

Immediately, a wisp of blood gushed out of the wound. In this dim and cold cavern, this bright red is particularly dazzling.

Gu Xu knew that in the eyes of most ghosts in the world, Gu Xu knew that he had the "body of the spirit" was undoubtedly a tempting and irresistible meal.

When he was still an ordinary exorcist priest, he once lured out many ghosts hidden in the shadows with the "Summoning Spirit Body", and burned them with the "Ghost Killing Talisman".

He can be called "Yishui County Meritorious List Double Pride" with Shi Xiaohan, and "the body of the spirit" is indispensable.

In his hunch, he believed that the sleeping Snow Maiden would not be able to resist the allure of his blood—no, the "seductory" aura.

He took a few steps forward and walked to the edge of the Snow Maiden's ice bed.

As expected.

After a few seconds, the Snow Girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she raised a slender hand like frost and snow, and grabbed Gu Xu's bleeding left hand.

Her eyes were still closed.

It can be seen that she has not fully awakened, and her actions at this moment are just acting on the instinct of ghosts to prey on humans.

Then, the snow girl slowly sat up from the ice bed, grabbed Gu Xu's left hand, close to her pale lips, and then tilted her head slightly, like a kitten drinking water, gently licking the blood flowing in his palm.

Straight black hair fell from the side of her cheeks, like a black waterfall.

Her movements are dignified and elegant, but also full of lover-like intimacy and ambiguity, even if she is eating human flesh, she also exudes a thrilling beauty.

But Gu Xu didn't dare to relax his vigilance at all.

He was clearly aware that his blood seemed to possess an unimaginable magical power—when the Snow Maiden swallowed it, her aura began to rise rapidly, exuding an intimidating coercion.

At the same time, with a spiritual perception far beyond ordinary people, Gu Xu also sensed the movement outside the cave entrance - the cultivators of the Great Qi Dynasty also chased after the top of Yishan Mountain and were breaking the prohibition outside the cave entrance.

With the ability of the national teacher, presumably this prohibition can't stop him for too long.

Gu Xu only felt that his current actions were like gambling with his life, dancing on the blade, with fierce gods and ghosts on one side, and saints and strong people on the other, if he was not careful, he would be doomed - either he would become the belly of the ghosts, or he would be captured and beheaded by the Great Qi Imperial Court to show the public.

"Wake up, wake up."

Gu Xu muttered silently in his heart.

But the Snow Maiden didn't seem to hear him.

On the contrary, she seemed to feel that the blood in Gu Xu's palms was not enjoyable enough to drink.

It was too late, it was too fast, she suddenly jumped up from the ice bed, like a tiger preying on its prey, and threw Gu Xu to the ground, the cold tips of her teeth were already next to his throat.

"This sleeping beauty is a little hard to mess with." Gu Xu looked at the snow girl who was pressing on his body and had a cold body, and complained secretly with a wry smile.
