Chapter 53: Retreat

Su Xuan, who didn't know that he had inexplicably offended this man and beast, held a bronze oil lamp in his hand and walked alone in the snowstorm.

The next moment, the ice and snow suddenly disappeared, and a solemn aura permeated the entire heaven and earth. The flame of the bronze oil lamp flickered sharply, as if if he could not withstand the great pressure and be completely extinguished if he took one more step.

Su Xuan slowly retracted the step he had taken.

Looking at the huge icicle that pierced through the heavens and the earth a mile away, the light blue broad-bladed sword in it was silently frozen, and his expression was solemn.

He had a strong feeling that as long as he took half a step forward, even with the support of the bronze oil lamp, he would be frozen into ice in an instant, and his life would be in danger.

"Reject all warm life?"

Su Xuan was racking his brains and thinking, and when he came to this point, there was only one disciple left in the Mind Realm. With this crucial step, he will be able to win and finally participate in the imperial examination.

However, the distance of this step was like a moat, lying in front of Su Xuan, blocking his footsteps from moving forward.

......

Behind him, Wang Feng and Zhang Yu, who saw this scene, couldn't help but feel a lot happier, and Su Xuan's condensed brows were undoubtedly the expressions they were most willing to see at the moment.

"Don't be delusional, if you want to take that step, you must at least have the strength of the Yuan Control Realm, you are still too far away!"

"Accept the reality, little brother. I'll admit you're strong, but it's completely beyond the limits of your abilities, and you can't do it at all. Hurry up and announce your withdrawal, I'll wait for the four to be counted as a tie, and then have a fight. ”

The two chattered and persuaded endlessly, trying to disturb Su Xuan's state of mind.

"Noise!"

Su Xuan was a little upset and turned around and shouted angrily, his irritable tone was enough to show the anxiety in his heart at the moment.

"The power of faith in the Heavenly Scripture requires self-confidence, but it is definitely not arrogance. When I got here, the mental power in my body had long been gone, and now the power of faith was completely consumed by precious life force. Even so, I'm not sure I'll be able to take this crucial step right now!"

He looked back behind him a little helplessly, and sighed: "Master, Master, don't you think too highly of your disciples! I'm just a rookie in the middle realm of material movement, and there is really no way to go any further at this moment!"

In fact, Li Dong's heart is also quite complicated now. He didn't look down on Su Xuan, but because he underestimated other people's determination to seize this imperial examination place, which led to the current dilemma.

Chiyang beads, fusang leaves, and even more precious bronze oil lamps. These three things are the treasures of those elders and even their families, Li Dong really didn't expect that for the sake of the imperial examination quota this time, they would be so desperate to take out these treasures and hand them over to their respective juniors. In his expectation, Su Xuan could definitely persist to the end with the fiery power of his Yang Xing Seed to protect himself. But now, with the blessing of those cold protection weapons, they have all come to a critical area that no disciple has reached before. On the contrary, Su Xuan was able to come here by himself without the help of external forces, and this performance already impressed him.

"Idiot, I can't go on. Ripple looked at Su Xuan's hesitant figure, and immediately said angrily, "I had the opportunity to wipe out those three people before they reached the critical point. If this is the case, this competition will already be over, so why stand there now, and be entangled. ”

"Meow!"

Yoyo nodded his little head, agreeing with the matter.

Ripple's beautiful eyes turned, looking at the little guy whose face was also unhappy, and dug into the corner of the wall at the right time and said, "Your Highness, you see that this person is so stupid, why don't you simply abandon him and follow me?"

Yoyo hurriedly shook his head, indicating that he was a loyal master, and that no matter how bad this servant was, he would never abandon him.

The girl's eyes when she looked at Su Xuan suddenly became jealous.

"This obscene and filthy guy, what good things did you do in your last life to make you so lucky to die for him!"

"Meow!"

The leisurely beard quivered discontentedly, signaling that the ripples had used some very inappropriate adjective.

"Dead hearted? Hongu to this stupid human being?chick, you said the opposite, goohehe......"

......

Su Xuan was still racking his brains to think of a way to take this decisive step without endangering his life.

"Neither the picture scroll nor the paper boat obtained in the Eclipse Tomb can be exposed in front of everyone. Otherwise, even with the suppression of the master, it is estimated that it will not be able to stop the greed of those elders in the door. ”

But how could he accomplish this seemingly impossible?

In his hand, the flame of the bronze oil lamp became more and more dim, and Su Xuan already felt that the bone-chilling cold was constantly eroding the thin layer of warm light around him.

He squinted his eyes and looked straight at the huge icicle that ran through the heavens and the earth a mile away. He saw the pale blue Starfall Sword frozen in ice, and then saw his own figure reflected on the ice.

As if looking at the frowning self in the mirror, a strange thought suddenly popped up in his heart.

"If you go any further, you'll be frozen...... Repels all warm objects......"

He muttered to himself, "If you lower your temperature to the same cold environment as here, does it mean that you can move freely without being frozen in ice?"

Su Xuan's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Perhaps...... Doable!"

His gaze was firm, and he took a deep look at the broad-bladed Starfall Sword, then turned around and walked away without hesitation.

Looking at Su Xuan, who was walking towards him, Wang Feng and Zhang Yu, who had been waiting in place for the results, were suddenly overjoyed.

"Haha, junior brother, have you given up?"

Su Xuan looked at the two of them with strange eyes, and asked suspiciously, "Who said that?"

"You can't take that decisive step, and now you go back, isn't it giving up?"

"You don't understand. ”

It was still the same sentence, and in the stunned eyes of the two of them, he continued to move forward.

"What does he mean by that?"

"Hell knows!"

......

In the distance, Zeng Wenming, who had just sent the lost soul out of the Mind Realm, saw this situation, and even frowned and snorted coldly: "This little rabbit cub is completely wasting time, and this competition can already be declared over." All four have reached a tipping point, so it can be counted as a tie. Directly go straight to another competition to choose the final winner. ”

Regarding his fingers, Li Dong just smiled and said: "I haven't said to give up yet, this competition can't be regarded as over." ”

"He has nothing to do! That critical point even our elders have to be cautious before stepping in, let alone such a low-strength kid! He is wasting everyone's time!"

"Hehe, then accompany my apprentice to see the scenery of this thought realm. ”

"You...... It's unbelievable!" Cao Ruijing roared angrily, "As the sect master, but you act so recklessly, the Fengtian Sect will decline and die in your hands sooner or later!"

Li Dong turned around and looked at him with an excited expression, his eyes were not shocked, and he just said quietly: "Elder Cao doesn't need to be alarmist. By the way, I would like to remind you that this is the Nian Realm, a Nian Realm that only the Sect Masters of the past dynasties can control. What can be said and what should not be said, I believe that Elder Cao has his own considerations in his heart. Although the temper of this sect is good, it also has a limit, so you can do it yourself. ”

“......”

Cao Ruijing involuntarily took two steps back, the wind and snow in the sky invaded, and at this moment he felt a cold meaning that he had never felt before permeating his heart.

Li Dong was right, the Mind Realm of the Fengtian Sect could indeed only be controlled by the sect masters of the past dynasties through secret techniques. No one can be sure that he will lay any means here to wipe out all the enemies.

Therefore, Cao Ruijing did not dare to take risks. He stepped aside with a gloomy face, but the eyes that looked at Su Xuan became more and more fierce.
