Chapter 106: The Four Heavenly Kings
Lao Huang didn't want to stay here for a moment, it hadn't felt the cold for a long time, and it hadn't experienced this kind of cold when he was a dog in Xiaoyin Village.
The cold there can still be avoided, nested in the corner of the room, lying on the side of the stove, protected by thick hair, it can bring warmth, but the cold here is the cold through the bones, as if every bit of cold is seeping out of the body, and the pain of the whole body is like a maggot on the tarsal bones, lingering.
Hearing Cao An's words, it turned around and ran out.
Cao An stretched out his finger and probed on the surface of the water, the chill seeped in from his fingertips, and when it was still a slight distance from the water, it condensed into ice and wrapped up.
"It's cold!"
As soon as he raised his hand, he flicked off the thin ice on his fingertips, and after looking around, he had a plan in his heart.
Sometimes, after all, these attributes are just touching the human body, and they may be prematurely harmful, not to mention ingesting them into the body, and with the operation and flow of the meridians, it is the result of killing on the spot.
He didn't dare to directly immerse his body in the water, but he just put his hands in, concentrating on his skills, and through the cover of the mist, he couldn't see it at all outside two zhang, and within two zhang, it was already Cao An's strongest perception area, in this area, he was confident that even the heavenly and human realms could also detect one or two.
There was no one to protect the way, and the true qi in the meridians was surging, carrying a chill that was not at the same level as before, circulating in the Cao An meridians, just for a moment, it was like the whole person fell into the ice cellar, unable to move, followed by pain, pain from the inside out.
Cao An's steel teeth are about to break, now it is not something he can control, he is cautious enough, but it is a pity that he still underestimates the chill of this little cold, this is only the chill of the central region, if it really reaches the core area, what kind of scale it must be, and the simple Ming Yugong is afraid that he will not be able to withstand that level of chill at all.
Or rather, Mingyu Gong will evolve into a stronger technique because of this chill.
Several cracking sounds sounded on Cao An's body, and the whole person was covered by a thin layer of ice, wrapping, and between breaths, two white gases gushed out.
The cold foundation laid for the body before played a role, and a few wisps of cold were barely ingested into the dantian, and the true qi swirls seemed to be frozen, but with the absorption of the cold, it was relieved, and the almost stagnant Mingyu true qi began to loosen, circulate, and move slowly, bringing wisps of new chill one after another.
But Cao An was no longer conscious, his eyes gradually darkened, his consciousness sank into the depths, and he automatically closed himself, and the thin ice that sealed him layer after layer completely wrapped it inside.
With the passage of time, the chill of the entire water area was surging towards the location of Cao An's hands, and the chill that gathered together directly froze the surface of the water.
In Cao An's meridians, earth-shaking changes are taking place.
The vitality that nourished all things in heaven and earth swarmed, corresponding to the cultivation path of [Ming Yugong], forming a cyclone around one trick point after another, and the chill surging along the meridians, the vitality wrapped Cao An's meridians and body, and every frostbite and frostbite were quickly recovered under the nourishment of the vitality.
And such an attribute gradually entered Cao An's body with the true qi rotation, and used the body of the Three Views to capture the vitality of heaven and earth for his own use, completely breaking the shackles of martial arts and common sense, and it happened to Cao An.
The vitality in the internal organs is even more enveloped, like a strong city wall, the slightest chill cannot penetrate into it, and as soon as a trace of the crack flows, it will be directly wrapped back into the meridians by the vitality.
In the place where the mortal body is not visible, next to Cao An, who is completely wrapped in ice, stands four statues of gods more than six feet high, with golden brilliance blooming all over their bodies, all of them are armor-clad and sharp, and the back of their heads is full of brilliance, which is as big as a bucket, and the people of the East are obliquely hugging the pipa, and the thick eyebrows are upside down, which is for the king of the country.
The god of the West is wrapped in a dragon and holds a jewel, which is for the wide-eyed king of the Devil to live for him; The god of the south holds a sword in his hand, and his majesty is extraordinary, which is to increase the heavenly king and demon Liqing; The god of the north lies on the silver rat in his left hand and holds the treasure umbrella in his right hand, which is the magic red of the king of many smells.
Right now, the four gods are divided into four directions, playing several divine powers, and blessing Cao An.
Seeing Cao An's body gradually recover and adapt, the four gods will look at each other, all nodded in unison, and disappeared, Cao An's body, the true qi flows, white as jade, that is, the meridians are all in a crystal state, and the twelve canons are like silver threads all over Cao An's body.
The chill receded like a tide and returned to its origin, but the concentration was no longer the same as before, and it would take a few days of assimilation and exchange to return to its original level.
Even the surrounding fog has become thinner several times, and a large human-shaped ice fruit is exposed in Xiao Hanze, and on his side, under the cover of clouds and mist, a big snake with a body like a water tank and white scale armor is staring at him deadly, and his triangular eyes show a look of doubt, obviously he already has spiritual wisdom.
The clouds and mist gathered between breaths, suddenly left and right, the sound of screaming was endless, and finally as if he didn't feel any threat from Cao An, he didn't look at it, turned around, and disappeared in place.
There was a soft click, followed by a popping sound like fried beans.
The ice is cracking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the people inside are also standing up in the next second.
His arms shook, his true anger was vigorous, and the ice debris fell to the ground, none of which stayed on Cao An's body, he opened his eyes, felt the new power in his body, bent out a finger, and under the slight movement of his mind, a wisp of white mist slowly floated out, curling up, under Cao An's control, gathering but not dispersing.
He slowly squatted down, pointed into the water, it seemed light and slow, his fingers did not touch the water, not even his fingers drove a wisp of wind, the whole water surface was calm and waveless, only a sticky white mist curled downward, from the side, it looked like a funnel-shaped whirlpool, slowly downward, touching the ground, and the white ice spread and spread around.
In just a short thought, a white ground was condensed under the entire water, but the water was not affected in any way, Cao An withdrew his fingers, and the uncontrollable chill erupted in the water, and the palm-sized small pond condensed into a large piece of ice in an instant.
"This chill has changed so much!"
Looking at the situation in front of him, Cao An was taken aback, is this still Ming Yugong?
I'm afraid that with the current intensity of the chill, it is more than several times that of Ming Yugong, and Cao An's [Ming Yugong] has officially stepped into the ninth layer.
The fairness of the body has not changed much, and the body looks more shapely.
Inexplicably, there is a little more light and elegant atmosphere.
Cao An shook his body, the cold was friendly, like a fish in water, the surrounding breath and water mist seemed to come to life in Cao An's perception, and this environment made Cao An inexplicably happy.
What he didn't know was that the monster had come close just now, but he didn't do anything to him, in addition to not feeling the threat, there was also a reason for the chill on Cao An's body, which made it mistakenly think that Cao An was his own kind, and the breath of the same root and origin was enough to be confused.
The old dog had been gone for a long time, and Cao An didn't know the specific time now, so the original plan didn't expect it to continue to move forward, so, after adapting to his new strength, Cao An went to the center of Hanze alone.
With his footsteps are slower, firstly, there is no crisis, secondly, his temperament, he stops as he goes, just in the right direction, and does not deliberately do anything, when he sees what he likes, he will stop and look at it for a while, and when it is getting late, he will find a place to rest.
Along the way, there are almost no demon beasts, and the plants in this area are not only reeds, but also a kind of lotus flower, which is an ordinary lotus, not a dark fruit.
Just because it grows here, whether it is a reed or a lotus, there is a certain degree of abnormality, and being able to survive in such a cold is extraordinary in itself, and behind it is probably a very exaggerated number of choices and adaptations after years.
Along the way, Cao An gradually felt monotonous, there were not many plants that could adapt to this level of cold, the further he went, the fewer reeds there were, and occasionally grew a few clusters, but they could only grow to the height of Cao An's shoulders, there was no greenery, it was all crystal white, and the edges of the leaves were covered with fine serrations, condensing layers of thin ice.
Most of the time, it is muddy and crystal clear water when you look up, and you can occasionally see sporadic broken ice, and the fog in the air is even worse, and you can hardly see anything outside the range of two zhang, which has a great impact on Cao An's advancing speed.
The range of options is so small that after restricting the line of sight, it is impossible to judge how wide it is when it encounters the surface of the water.
"I have to retreat, the cold charm and the sun charm in my hand are almost exhausted."
Cao An, who was walking, heard the movement, stopped, and the voice of a middle-aged man came from the air.
After a moment of silence,
Another voice spoke: "It's not necessarily a good choice for you to go out now, when you just came in, you also experienced, I waited for the concerted efforts to kill so many Hanze demon beasts, and only then did I come here, you go out alone, can you guarantee survival?" ”
"Go out, I may not die, but keep going, I will definitely die, how do you let me choose?"
At this point, Cao An heard a familiar voice: "That being the case, I agree, and I respect your choice, if you want to leave now, you can go with this fellow Taoist, so that you can take care of each other." ”
Cao An sensed it about a while, and there were a total of six people in the group, and the leader of them was his old acquaintance: Qi Jingchu.
I just don't know what he is doing in Dingzhou because of a Cangzhou Zhu Yi catch, but coincidentally, he also came to Xiaohanze.
As soon as Qi Jingchu's words were finished, several more people stood on the man's side, and all of a sudden, only one person in a six-person team was still standing beside Qi Jingchu.
She seemed a little frustrated, "That being the case, let's go our separate ways here, no matter what, Jing Chu is still grateful to all of you for coming, the promise I gave you before, you go back to Cangzhou to get it yourself, except for Xiao Hanze's target, other agreements remain unchanged." ”
"Master Qi, I deserve it."
The gossip sounded, but there was not much sincerity in it, and it was estimated that it was still needed.
"That's what you deserve, along the way, you have worked hard, and you deserve it!"
A few people humbly conceded a few words, and it was only a dozen breaths before and after, as if they didn't want to stay here for a moment, and turned around and headed towards the periphery.
"Friend, come out!"
