Chapter 270: Xishan Academy
Snow-capped, the endless mountains are the wonders of the Frost State, this mountain range is taller and whiter than the others, and the depths of the snow seem to hide an infinite secret - yes, snow, not just frost.
This snow-capped mountain is the real snow region in the frosty state full of white frost, it is not far from the southwest mountains, and it is even said that the depths are connected, it is the first strange place, dangerous place, and creation place in the frost state, precious ice and snow crystals, rare ice crystal grass, strong snow leopards, white bears, mysterious caves with precious treasures buried in the wind and snow, and even snow monsters that the dragon cannot see...... Chance and mystery attract countless people to flock here, some people do find treasures here and even become a generation of strong people, there are also many people who fall into the abyss forever and become ice sculptures or beast rations under the heavy snow, it is said that there is a fairyland in the depths of the snow-capped mountains, and there is an ice and snow holy land whose strength is not inferior to the top forces of the mainland, which is fascinating, and the story is endless.
Ling Qingyun didn't know if there was a fairyland and holy land outside the world, but he knew that there was a place on the mountain he was climbing that could be called a holy land of education, and when some somewhat familiar figures came into view, he smiled.
"Are you...... Ling Qingyun!?" The young man in the dark blue robe looked at the young man who walked out of the wind and snow incredulously, at this time, Ling Qingyun took off his disguise, carried the sword scabbard, and was heroic and fierce in the wind and snow.
"Brother Qin Li, long time no see. Seeing each other, Ling Qingyun also showed a faint smile, the first thing he met was an acquaintance, this coincidence was a bit unexpected.
"Really...... How could you ......" Tianjiao, who had fought with Ling Qingyun on the island in the middle of the lake, was stunned, and after thinking about it, he finally suddenly realized: "Golden Body Realm, you have started to travel the world?"
"It is precisely because of this that I have heard for a long time that Xishan College has many talents and a strong heritage, and I want to ask for advice and learn. Ling Qingyun said with a smile.
Hearing this, Qin Li's expression stiffened slightly, didn't you sweep away all the Tianjiao of our Xishan Academy when you were on the island in the middle of the lake? Later, he even fought a draw with Zhao Xiyu, who swept all the Hou level academies, and now he was not ridiculing him when he came to ask for advice? But after seeing Ling Qingyun's sincere expression, he was relieved, and he had the impression that this opponent was not an aggressive person.
"The threshold of our academy is very high, and idle people are not allowed to enter!" The corners of Qin Li's mouth were raised, but a war knife was already out of its sheath, and there were thousands of wisps of cold, and there was also a yin wind sweeping, in this white snowy mountain, it was like a ghost crying, which was terrifying.
"Of course, with Brother Ling's talent and reputation, it is naturally not a problem to enter the academy. Qin Li smiled, but his eyes lit up with fiery intent: "But I still want to check whether Brother Ling has the 'qualifications' to enter my hospital." ”
"As you wish. Ling Qingyun smiled, a sword light that rose into the sky overshadowed the cold light and the yin wind, the sound of wind and snow was overshadowed by the roar, and in an instant, the entire world seemed to fall silent.
......
"Sure enough, I can't defeat you!" Looking at the few cracks that tore open the battle suit, and then looking at the surrounding snowy ravines, Qin Li couldn't help but sigh, of course he knew that he was not Ling Qingyun's opponent, but after more than a year, the gap between the two sides was getting bigger and bigger, so big that he was a little decadent.
"Your sword skills have improved a lot, and your true qi has become more and more condensed. Ling Qingyun said with a smile, of course this battle was won, he naturally wouldn't be vicious and excited, you must know that Qin Li is still stuck at the peak of the Stone Spirit Realm, and the combat power of the two sides is not at the same level at all, but he admits that Qin Li's strength has improved significantly, and if he is still at the peak of the Stone Spirit Realm, it is indeed tricky to deal with.
"It's nothing compared to you. "Qin Li is helpless, compare the sword technique, Ling Qingyun pierced the flaw with a sword, and dissolved all the mysteries. The golden sword burst through the air, directly tearing apart the yin cold of the Yin True Qi along with the potential, and even the wind and snow were palpitating, losing color under the excessively bright light.
"It's just a fluke, speaking of which, this is really a treasure land for cultivation, no wonder knowing that the sky is cold and the ground is freezing, there is still an endless stream of visiting scholars!" Ling Qingyun glanced at the surrounding wind and snow and couldn't help but sigh, the aura here is abundant, the temperature is extremely low, the ice element is inevitably too rich, it really has a unique advantage for ice attribute cultivators, low temperature and cold wind and snow can also be used to sharpen the body, the entire Great Snow Mountain is a natural training ground, and it is also the cornerstone of Xishan Academy.
In contrast, Nanming Academy's heaven and earth energy, aura, and exercise effect cannot be compared with the Great Snow Mountain, the Great Snow Mountain is far superior to Nanming Mountain, and can even provide rare treasures, which Ling Qingyun must admit and envy, but cultivating in this Great Snow Mountain is too boring, lacking vitality, and the attributes are too simple, compared to the Nanming Academy on the bank of the Li River, it has its own advantages and disadvantages.
"I really don't know if it's an honor or a ...... when you say that" Qin Li smiled helplessly: "Let's go, I'll lead you up the mountain, the wind and snow here are too big, even if you have a golden body realm cultivation, it's easy to get lost." ”
"Thank you very much. Ling Qingyun didn't shirk, he wasn't afraid of the wind and snow, but he found that there was a special magnetic field here, which was equivalent to a weakened version of the mist of the Arbarium Forest, and it was quite a headache to mix in the wind and snow, and it was convenient to go directly to Xishan Academy with Qin Li and obtain all kinds of information.
"It's really not easy for you to say it, if you want to take this road, it's a life of death!" On the snowy mountain road, Ling Qingyun, who was beaten by the cold wind, sighed, the entrance test of Nanming Academy could not be compared with this overwhelming low temperature, wind and snow, and even if you stepped on the air, there was a danger of falling into ice and snow forever.
"It's you who went wrong!" Qin Li finally had a chance to laugh at Ling Qingyun, it turned out that there was another safe path up the mountain, that was the path of the ordinary student clan, so he Qin Li came specifically for training on this path.
"Actually, I'm going to explore a cave that is said to be inhabited by centuries-old spider spirits. Qin Li sighed: "It's a pity that I couldn't find it for two whole days, think about it carefully, with my current strength, even if I really find it to challenge the hundred-year-old spider spirit, it's too reluctant." ”
"Hundred-year-old spider spirit?" Ling Qingyun was quite interested when he heard this: "Is it a demon beast, or is it a real spirit?"
"I don't know. Qin Li shook his head: "Some people have witnessed a snow-blue giant spider in this area that is as big as a cow and has bright eyes, and some people say that they have seen a bewitching woman wearing a blue tulle, of course, I think the latter is mostly a rumor." ”
As he spoke, he touched his nose: "You know, we have a lot of spirit legends here, and there are not many that you can really see." ”
Ling Qingyun nodded and thought deeply, most of the things in the world are based on false rumors, and there are too few things that are truly as magical as rumors.
As he spoke, a majestic building appeared in front of him, standing in the wind and snow on the mountainside, like an eternal temple, this magnificent place is Xishan Academy, a Hou-level academy located in the west of the continent.
"Formation?" As soon as he entered Xishan Academy, Ling Qingyun felt a sense in his heart, this place was clearly shrouded by a huge formation, and the temperature across a door and wall was very different, although it was still relatively cold, it was much better than the outside world that could freeze people into ice sculptures.
"Senior Qin!" Along the way, many teenagers and girls greeted Qin Li, and cast curious glances at Ling Qingyun, who was walking side by side with Qin Li, it was extraordinary to be able to walk side by side with Qin Li, not to mention that this person was still wearing a thin green coat - you must know that all Xishan students who came back from going out wore thick cold-proof clothes, even genius students like Qin Li were no exception.
"It seems that you are very popular?" Ling Qingyun was a little surprised, Qin Li gave him a rather cold and arrogant feeling, but it seemed that he was quite respected by his juniors.
Rather, the students of Xishan Academy gave him a cold impression, but now it seems that this is not the case within them.
"That's natural, our students of Xishan Academy respect their teachers, and they are happy with each other, it's not what you think!" Qin Li didn't have a good temperament, he knew that in the eyes of many people, there was a group of monsters with a lonely and strange temperament living in the Xishan Academy in the Great Snow Mountain, which was caused by the fact that the Xishan students often couldn't close up, and because the cultivation attribute seemed cold and unapproachable, but in fact, the temperament of the Xishan students was not much different from ordinary people, and the rumors hurt them very much, but they didn't bother to justify them in every way, and they became more and more cold in the eyes of outsiders.
"Wait a minute, I'll go tell the dean. Qin Li led Ling Qingyun to the center of the academy and invited an old man who was wearing a heavy cotton coat but his skin was white and smooth like a baby, Ling Qingyun knew that this was the dean of Xishan Academy, the Tianxing powerhouse who was called "Lao Bai" by Dean Nanming.
"Yes, yes, he is already a triple golden body at such a young age, coupled with this sword intent, the invitation to the Heroes Club has already been booked, and I don't know how many times I want to come to that old guy. Dean Xishan looked Ling Qingyun up and down and exclaimed: "The future is terrifying!"
"I always feel like there's a knife in my smile. "Ling Qingyun slandered, I heard that this Dean of Xishan was quite resentful of him because he lost the last gamble, and now he is not planning to kill him?
"Come and be a guest, Qingyun Xiaoyou can afford our academy, we can't be rude here, Qin Li, please Qingyun Xiaoyou go to Wangxue Pavilion to rest for a while, and also invite him to taste the famous products of our Daxue Mountain." ”
"Of course, Ling Qingyun must have gained a lot in Nongzhou, but please don't underestimate our Shuangzhou's specialties. Dean Xishan smiled, but Ling Qingyun was amazed at how old he was, but he guessed his thoughts.
Wangxue Pavilion is located at the highest point of the terrain of Xishan College, located in an independent small peak, beyond the scope of the academy formation, it is cold and piercing, but the scene seen from this angle is magnificent and dangerous, you can see the heavy snow, and also see the stalactite-like ice edge shining, condescending, the world is boundless, and it is even more magnificent.
Sitting at the Hanyu table, Ling Qingyun, who felt all this coldness, seemed to have the best view here in the eyes of Xishan Academy, which was more conducive to getting close to nature and the unity of heaven and man.
"This snow coconut is not easy to grow, and it is best to enjoy it in the heavy snow, you are blessed. Qin Li handed over a round and snow-white, snow-like snow coconut, which made Ling Qingyun look strange.
Isn't the coconut born by the sea, and it is extremely rare in the inland? There is actually a so-called snow coconut? He took the snow coconut, and according to Qin Li's instructions, he used his fingers to point out a small hole in the steel-solid coconut shell, and then he picked up the snow coconut, aimed it at the hole, and drank it like a wine cup.
The entrance is sweet, and there is a kind of dog day drinking cold water-like pleasure, which is incredible on a cold and biting snowy day, and then a warm current flows all over the limbs, warm all over the body, but the cold has become a pleasant enjoyment.
"What a snow coconut!" Ling Qingyun admired, this is not only a taste, but also a kind of enjoyment that nourishes the body and mind.
"It's not just the snow coconuts that are wonderful about this snowy mountain. Qin Li smiled and introduced the blue flowers, snowflake silk scarves, crystal cups and other things next to Ling Qingyun one by one, and even the cold jade tables and chairs themselves were also very particular and effective.
"Brother Ling, long time no see. As he spoke, a silver bell-like laughter sounded, and the blue-haired girl Lotus walked away, smiling like a flower.
