Chapter 40: Monsters are warm and cold

The weather was a little dark, the wind was blowing and the leaves were rustling, and the small trees looked like they were about to fall. It wasn't a good day, but it was a good day.

Thousands of people stand or sit in a large circular square, but it is not crowded.

A gong sounded, not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly. The seated people stood up one after another, and everyone looked in that direction together.

There was a three-storey stone building with traces of time etched on the surface. The square was so empty that it made the attic seem a little abrupt and lonely. There was a terrace on the third floor, where several old men were sitting at the moment. And this gong sounded from here.

One of the white-haired old men stepped forward and explained the rules of this competition, and his voice was slightly old, "This competition is the same as in previous years, first enter the bitter cold land of the extreme north and hunt demon beasts. After three days, the one who takes his left ear moves on to the next round of the battle. ”

This is followed by a bit of the history of Middle-earth, as well as other rules such as the prohibition of killing.

"Although it is clearly said that this Middle Earth Dabi is not allowed to kill, but there is no limit to taking prey from each other in the trial ground, so there are fights between each other from time to time, and there are many people who have grudges with each other because of this. Yan Xin explained the rules to Tianyi on the side.

Tianyi nodded slightly after hearing this, "There are not many demon beasts in the bitter cold land of the extreme north, and there are even fewer who are cultivated to be strong, if you think that your cultivation is strong and you have not encountered demon beasts, you can only take it by force, and this rule is reasonable." ”

After the old man of the Clear Void Cave finished his long opening speech, it was already more than an hour later. Lighting firecrackers is the official start of Dabi.

Behind the stone tower, a formation suddenly appeared. After the formation was opened, a door-like arc appeared in the formation. Look inside the gate, it seems to be the scene of the bitter cold land in the far north. Snow-capped and frozen for thousands of miles, it makes people feel the sense of the bones at a glance.

Tianyi secretly marveled that there was such a formation in the world.

"This formation was discovered long after the opening of the Qingxu Cave, and it is said to be left by the Buddhist sect of the Heavenly Demon Land, but thousands of years have passed, and it has long been impossible to verify. Neither the real person in charge of the Daoxu nor the Burning Lamp Demon Venerable of Buddhism is willing to reveal. No one knows how it really is. Yan Xin looked at Tianyi with a faint look of amazement, and explained again.

The two of them approached the front with the flow of people, and only then did Tianyi really see the whole picture of this formation. This formation is vast, with a radius of hundreds of meters, and countless formations inside are repeatedly outlined, and countless rare materials are dotted among them.

The two of them stopped in front of the formation, and only stepped into it after memorizing the formation diagram, and at this time, there were only a few dozen people left who had not entered the formation.

Tianyi walked into the formation, only to feel a flower in front of him, and he arrived at the bitter cold land in the extreme north. With a flash around him, Yan Xin appeared beside him.

The two of them did not go with the people of the sect, because the monsters of this trial were rare, and they needed to be looked for separately, so only the two of them walked together.

Yan Xin looked at the ice crystals here, the snow was falling, and she loved it very much, and sometimes stopped to watch. Whenever this happens, Tianyi stops to accompany him. The two came to enjoy the flowers and the moon for two days, and they were fascinated. I completely forgot that I was here to try it out, but it was more like a tour.

In a trance, Tianyi felt a hint of the human monk's movement, and prepared to investigate. Before the two could get closer, they heard a scream. Then the two of them sped up and ran away.

On the ground, the dried corpse of a woman lay alone on the ground. The corpse lost its spirit, as if it had been sucked away, and its face was extremely hideous.

Yan Xin frowned slightly, her eyes were calm, "It seems that you have lost all your essence and died!" It seems that this kind of evil method has never happened except when the Zhan Demon invaded a hundred years ago. Besides, the Zhan Demon was only absorbing people's spiritual energy at that time, although there was no living mouth in the places he passed by, but there was no such tragic image!"

"You and I have traveled all the way, I occasionally found the Qingxu Cave Jindan disciples, why didn't I rescue them?" In the past two days, Tianyi often found that there were Qingxu Cave Jindan disciples following behind him, and he couldn't help but wonder.

"Qingxu Cave inevitably made a feud with the Middle-earth faction, so he sent people to protect it. However, with so many scattered cultivations, even if the void cave is cleared, there is nothing that can be done. ”

In the past day, Tianyi and Yan Xin have found two more corpses with identical appearances. However, there is no clue to the perpetrator. And tomorrow is the day the competition ends, and the two of them haven't even seen a demon beast, and they are secretly anxious.

Suddenly, a scream reached the ears of the two, and the two hurried forward.

Contrary to expectations, two groups of monks were fighting ahead. A seriously wounded monk was lying on the ground, but not fatally.

On the other side of them, a giant white bear held a small white fox under it. However, seeing that the white bear was gone, blood trickled from the wound the size of a fist on his neck, and he was obviously out of breath. The white fox guarding under him was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, so he had to stretch out his pink tongue and lick the white bear's arm, hoping that the white bear would move.

Tianyi looked at the trembling white fox, and couldn't help but think of Xiaobai again, and his heart was a little depressed. looked at the few people who were fighting for a bear ear, and said in a lost voice, "The monster is still so ......"

Yan Xin saw why Tianyi was lost, and remembered what Tianyi did when he came a few days ago, and knew that he had compassion for this white fox. The general's sword came out of the sheath, and he joined the battle circle in a moment of footsteps. The sword of the cadre danced like a dragon in Yan Xin's hands, and after only a few swords, he collected the beast ears in the bags of several people and returned, and slapped everyone away.

When several people saw this, they were all resentful in their hearts, staring at Yan Xin. Some of them tried to rush up, but were stopped by their companions. Fleeing with the wounded, not even a word of cruelty remained.

Tianyi paced to the white fox's side, squatted down, and looked at the white fox. The white fox trembled even more, and the snow beside his feet trembled faintly. A pair of pitiful eyes stared vigilantly at Tianyi.

Tianyi looked at the white fox's pitiful cuteness, and found his best cold attribute spar from the storage ring and put it in front of the white fox. Tianyi thought that when he first saw Xiaobai, Xiaobai's eyes were also like this.

The cold wind was blowing, and I didn't know if the white fox was frozen cold, or if I was worried that the strange intimacy was a trick of human beings. The trembling footsteps moved backwards, and when he saw that Tianyi did not react, he turned around and ran. This run is hundreds of meters. When I turned around, there was no trace of the two of them. And the cold spar still lay there quietly.

No one knows the warmth and coldness of the monsters, and the sword falls and the white Qiu blood stains the shirt. The swordsman asked himself about the knights, and the lone wound was splattered with blood.
