Chapter 275: Akame Snow Bear
"After an avalanche, there are some uncommon good things. Walking in the snow, Zhou Qi taught Ling Qingyun the experience of surviving and searching for treasures in the Great Snow Mountain, he walked to a certain place and stopped, and gently kicked the snow curtain that rose more than a foot high with his toes, and held the object kicked out of the snow in his hand as soon as he stretched out his palm, but it was a round white sphere, which seemed to be an ordinary snowball.
"Star Snow?" Ling Qingyun said the name of the snowball, and Zhou Qi nodded: "Know the goods." ”
As he spoke, he threw the snowball into the snow, the reason was not said, but Ling Qingyun almost understood that although this kind of star snow is also valuable, it is too low for Zhou Qi, and it is not even worth occupying the baggage space, it belongs to the kind that he doesn't want to pick up if he falls on the ground, Zhou Qi's goal is to have spirit stones, demon cores, and various precious medicines and materials, and the value is far from being comparable to the relatively common star snow.
After walking another hundred steps, Zhou Qi seemed to sense something and looked around, then he took ten steps to the left, bent down and stretched out his hand, this time he dug patiently for a while, and finally dug out a cold round stone with a light blue light, and he could feel the fluctuations of the aura and the ice element.
"Congratulations to Brother Zhou, you have gained so quickly. Ling Qingyun smiled when he saw this, he recognized that this rough stone was actually a fairly high-quality low-grade spirit stone, worth close to ten gold, which was much more valuable than Xing Xingxue, even for the Linghua powerhouse.
"Good luck. Zhou Qi also smiled slightly, continued to walk, and successively found the crystal white snow mountain ginseng, the cold ice crystal stone and the corpse of the demon beast buried by the snow, all of which were not small gains, the two of them consciously followed the rules, these treasures that are not too valuable will belong to whoever finds them, Zhou Qi's experience is naturally far better than Ling Qingyun, but Ling Qingyun has gained a lot after opening his perception and feeling it carefully.
"It's a pity. Putting down a diamond-shaped gem and digging a pit to bury it deeply, Zhou Qi had some regrets: "I was almost able to achieve a medium-grade spirit stone, but I didn't catch up with the time." ”
Seeing this, Ling Qingyun couldn't help but nodded, why didn't Zhou Qi take this low-grade spirit stone that was about to transform? It was precisely because he didn't want to spoil this further opportunity to bury the spirit stone again, it still had a chance to absorb the power of heaven and earth and the spirit vein to transform, so as not to spoil a medium-grade spirit stone into a low-grade spirit stone, but in this way, most of the middle-grade spirit stones would fall into the hands of other treasure hunters instead of him Zhou Qi, and Zhou Qi was willing to give it up, which was a manifestation of public morality.
"Of course, what comes out of an avalanche isn't necessarily good. Zhou Qi said, his thumbs and fingers together as if pinching something from the air, this is a soybean-sized, slug but snow-white creature, after being caught by Zhou Qi's fingers, he struggled desperately, and twisted his body several times in an instant, this vigorous energy is not like a mollusk at all.
"Snow leeches, we also call vampires, the most troublesome bugs in the snowy mountains. Zhou Qi frowned slightly, obviously extremely disgusted with this creature: "Don't look at it like this, it's actually very dangerous, you and I are not afraid of the Golden Body Realm, but the Stone Spirit Realm is easy to be silently sucked blood and injected with cold poison, this is not bad, the flesh and blood of the Stone Spirit Realm can at least prevent them from invading the body, but if it is the Thousand Forging Realm, ......"
"That's not bloodsucking, it's deadly. ”
With a "snap", the leech was pinched and exploded by Zhou Qi, and the body fluids sprinkled on the snow like snow water, leaving no traces that had existed in the world.
According to Zhou Qi, snow leeches are extremely stealthy, not only are they extremely small and color-like, but even their life fluctuations are quite weak, so they can attack their prey silently, and even the golden body realm may not be found, they also have amazing bounce power and sharp mouthparts that can penetrate steel, and can suck blood without the prey noticing, and once it picks the right prey - the flesh is weak enough for it to burrow, it will really become a parasite, burrow into the flesh of the prey until it is eaten dry.
There was once a Thousand Forging Realm traveler who strayed into the Great Snow Mountain and escaped, but died for no reason after escaping for three days, and finally people found that his body was covered with dense snow leeches climbing, and even the bone marrow organs were eaten up, and the reputation of the snow leeches undoubtedly became more terrifying after this incident came out, making the powerful monks worried.
"Ordinary snow leeches don't need to worry, their mouthparts can't penetrate the golden body, but there are also strong people in the leeches who can break through the golden body, and the leech king can threaten the Linghua realm even more, so don't take it lightly, once you feel that the flesh and blood are moving, immediately use your true qi to force it out or strangle it!" Zhou Qi solemnly admonished, Ling Qingyun also seriously bowed his head, of course, the more powerful the leech, the rarer it is, and it may not be encountered on such a trip.
Legend has it that there are even snow leeches that can kill spirit beasts, but that kind of insect is too terrifying, and people prefer to believe that this is just a terrifying rumor.
Seeing the dangerous creature of snow leeches, Ling Qingyun was also a little more vigilant on the basis of his already vigilant, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be something under his feet, and after digging it out, his complexion changed, it was actually a young man covered in ice!
"It's been dead for months. Zhou Qi came over and observed, and said, "Luckily, the body is well preserved, and it should have frozen to death." ”
Death is naturally not lucky, but compared to being eaten empty by leeches and used as food by wild beasts, it is relatively lucky to be able to keep the whole body, Zhou Qi sighed, buried the corpse again, and inserted a black bamboo stick, and used the ice control technique to strengthen and solidify the snow before standing up.
"There are so many dead people in the Great Snow Mountain that we don't have time to collect his body, but we can guide the body collector. Zhou Qi said as he walked, there are people in Xishan College who are responsible for patrolling in the Snow Mountain, rescuing the lost, and collecting the bodies of those who are lost if they see them, but many times the dead are buried deep in the snow, hidden in hidden caves or devoured, in fact, there are very few bodies that can really be found, but Xishan College still continues to collect the bodies for them, which is a kind of morality, and also gives those who are worried about the victims a little thought.
According to the unwritten rules, the person who collects the body or finds the body has the right to obtain the victim's property, but this also makes people suspect that the victim was actually deliberately murdered, Zhou Qi and Ling Qingyun did not touch the victim's stay, but continued to move forward, as the darkness continued to advance to the depths of the Great Snow Mountain.
Before you know it, it's getting dark.
"I can't even see the moon. Ling Qingyun looked up at the sky, it was only pitch black above the wind and snow, and there were no stars and moons in sight.
"This shows that we have really reached the depths of the Great Snow Mountain. Zhou Qi said lightly, but one hand was raised, and the shining blue light served as a lantern to illuminate the road, in fact, the night vision ability of the golden body strong man was stronger than that of the wolf and tiger, but it was still more light safe.
"This is the depths of the Great Snow Mountain?" Ling Qingyun thought silently, indeed, he could feel an even more chilling cold wind, the low temperature was enough to freeze the Shiluo Realm monk in a cotton jacket to death, even if he was a little unbearable, his limbs were slightly numb, no wonder it was as strong as Zhou Qi had to store food to resist the cold.
There is no doubt that there is danger here, and there is chance and danger.
"How does it feel? It's refreshing, isn't it?" Zhou Qi, who took a step, climbed to the top of the peak, opened his arms wantonly, and looked around, but at a glance there was only snow and wind and snow, and in the distance was a deep darkness, like a bloody mouth staring at everyone.
A flower swayed gently at Zhou Qi's feet, the whole body was ice blue and translucent, the eight-petaled gorgeous and symmetrical petals shone brightly, the light blue pollen fluttered in the wind and danced with the snow, and the flower stems that were less than the thickness of a little finger but could stand tall in the wind and snow were not as delicate as they looked.
Zhou Qi leaned over and picked up the ice flower, the smile on his face became even richer, the octagonal ice flower growing on the top of the snow peak is the treasure of the Great Snow Mountain, worth a thousand gold, higher than the sum of the previous harvests!
With a smile, the light of the gem crystal also resurfaced on Zhou Qi's body, surrounded by wind and snow, revealing an ice blue light forming a cold ice vortex with a diameter around him, and he could feel that the temperature was clearly one level lower than the wind and snow in the depths of the Great Snow Mountain, even an ice cultivator like Zhou Qi would inevitably frost on his body, but his smile that endured the pain became more and more abundant, and he was happy.
Ling Qingyun understood that this was Zhou Qi's cultivation method, a sharpening method that challenged the limit, similar to the sharpening he had once at the top of the Thundering Peak, of course, the Ice Vortex could not be compared to the Heavenly Thunder Split, but Ling Qingyun's Thunder Pool Refining Body was only once, and Zhou Qi cultivated like this but he didn't know how many times.
It lasted for a whole hour, Zhou Qi, who had condensed a thick layer of cold ice on the surface, no longer moved, he was like an ice sculpture, but it contained an endless chill like an iceberg, Ling Qingyun stood not far away and was a little frightened, he also tried to induce the cold qi refining body here, just normal absorption, he felt paralyzed all over the body, almost unconscious, how dare he swallow a cow like Zhou Qi?
Of course, the cultivation attributes of the two are not different, this phenomenon is normal, a whole hour of observation is enough, Ling Qingyun looked around, admiring the scenery of the big snow mountain at night - but unfortunately there is no scenery, although the snow surface is reflective, the snow mountain that is blocked by countless wind and snow is still dim at night, and the scenery is almost the same wherever you look, endless wind and snow are surging, and the sky is sprinkled into the darkness.
This scene was spectacular, but after looking at it for a long time, he only felt tired, Ling Qingyun sighed slightly, and was about to withdraw his gaze to cultivate by himself, when his pupils shrank suddenly, and he suddenly looked at the mountainside on the side.
There, two red rays of light shone like torches, silently, but rapidly approaching!
Ling Qingyun was instantly vigilant and put on a good posture, instinctively telling the opponent that it was by no means easy to match, and a vicious battle was coming.
The sword sunk in the night did not make a sound, the ice sculpture behind him seemed to be unmoved, but the red light in the wind and snow kept approaching, Ling Qingyun realized that it was eyes, the size of a lantern, and the scarlet eyes that revealed a fierce aura!
As if he understood that his sneak attack had failed, the red-eyed creature's forward speed increased suddenly, almost no tremor snow but its speed was fast, almost instantly climbing to the peak, followed by an air explosion, and an even colder wind and snow were coming, and Ling Qingyun was shrouded in shadows!
"It's coming!" If a dragon's groan sounded, the moment the shadow approached, Ling Qingyun jumped forward, swung his sword and avoided the terrifying attack like Mount Tai at the top, but saw the ice and snow flying, and the previous position was smashed out of a terrifying pit several feet in diameter, and even the entire mountain peak trembled slightly under the impact of the terrifying power.
And at this time, Ling Qingyun finally saw the identity of the attacker, his eyes were red, his whole body was snow-white, and his burly and majestic body was like a hill, this was a bear, a red-eyed snow bear!
