Chapter 604: Two Clears of Human Feelings
This is an extremely steep ice peak.
It is more than 3,000 feet high, and if it weren't for the fact that the sky in the snowfield is bluer than in other places, and the clouds are thinner, the peak would have reached into the sky.
The whole ice peak, in addition to the foot of the mountain hundreds of zhang up, you can also see some common cedar trees and other snow plants in the snow field, the area of more than 1,000 zhang is covered by white snow and ice, in the area close to the top of the mountain hundreds of zhang, the ice is reflected blue ice light, that is the blue ice that does not melt for thousands of years.
Zhou Yang had been observing this ice peak hundreds of miles away for more than half a month.
More than half a month ago, after he and Bailu Zhenren came here, they were originally going to use the help of Bailu Zhenren to directly kill that ice peak, kill or trap the [Three Ice Vultures] on the ice peak, and pick the [Ice Tears] growing on the top of the ice peak.
But when he was about to make a move, Bailu Zhenren sensed the residual aura of the sixth-order demon king on the ice peak, which frightened both of them.
Zhou Yang thought that he was too late, and the [Three Ice Vultures] had been promoted from a fifth-order demon beast to a sixth-order demon king.
Afterwards, the two of them carefully observed and found that the sixth-order demon king's aura on the ice peak was not owned by the [Three Ice Vultures], but was just left by a sixth-order demon king who had been here.
Therefore, the real situation should be that not long ago, a sixth-order demon king visited this ice peak, and when he stayed on the ice peak, he left some of his own breath.
And to be able to leave a breath for the visit of the sixth-order demon king, the status of the [Three Ice Vultures] on the ice peak is obviously extraordinary.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, Bailu Zhenren suggested that Zhou Yang lure out the [Three Ice Vultures], and then he personally sneaked into the ice peak to steal the [Ice Tears].
As long as the [Ice Tears] arrived, they would separate up and evacuate the Boundless Snow Plain, and even if a sixth-order demon king made a move, they would definitely only chase after the Bailu Zhenren with a larger target.
Zhou Yang accepted Bailu Zhenren's suggestion, so he was now observing the situation and looking for an opportunity to attack.
After observing like this for half a month and finding out the surrounding situation, Zhou Yang finally took the initiative to expose his body and flew directly towards the top of the ice peak in the clouds.
As soon as the breath of the human cultivator in the late stage of Jindan appeared, the [Three Ice Vultures] cultivating in the ice cave on the top of the Ice Peak Mountain instantly sensed it, and then quickly rushed out of the ice cave with an angry roar.
Soon, Zhou Yang, who was still a hundred miles away, saw the full picture of this fifth-order high-grade demon beast.
In the sky, a giant blue bird with a wingspan of sixty or seventy feet roared, and it had three long heads, each of which had different feathers of different colors, the middle head feathers were blue, the left was silver, and the right was cyan.
The color of the feathers on the head represents the strength of the head of the [Three Ice Vultures], blue is the ice attribute, silver is the thunder attribute, and cyan is the wind attribute.
The strength of the three attributes of Ice Wind and Thunder is stronger than the ordinary Five Elements in terms of attack, which is also the fundamental reason why the [Three Ice Vultures] are stronger than other fifth-order high-grade demon beasts.
However, it was also because these three powers were incompatible, resulting in the [Three Ice Vultures] being stuck in the fifth rank for countless years, and they could not be promoted to the sixth order demon king.
At this time, the person who was invading his territory and offending his majesty turned out to be a human immortal cultivator, and the six eyes of the [Three Ice Vultures] of different colors showed anger at the same time.
I saw that the head with silver feathers on its left opened its mouth and spit out, and it spit out a thick silver thunderbolt and blasted towards Zhou Yang, and then the head with cyan feathers on the right also spit out, spitting out a blue-white wind blade and slashing at Zhou Yang.
The wind and thunder attacked alternately, and Zhou Yang didn't dare to slack off, so he waved his sleeves and sacrificed the [Yanlong Shield] to protect himself, and then sacrificed the [Sun Burning Heart Spear] and the natal magic weapon "Qianyang Golden Pagoda" to attack the [Three Ice Vultures].
One person and one demon have just handed over, and they are still in the process of testing, and although the power of the means used is not weak, they are not the strongest killing moves.
After about half an hour of fighting like this, the [Three Ice Vultures] first lost their patience and launched a killing move.
I saw that his three heads opened their mouths at the same time and spit out, and the three powers of ice, wind and thunder poured out, and the wind blade, ice pick, and thunder and lightning fell like rain, instantly covering Zhou Yang in it.
These most basic spell form attacks, with the blessing of the powerful mana and talent of the [Three Ice Vultures], are no worse than ordinary fifth-order spells, and have a continuity that fifth-order spells absolutely do not have.
Zhou Yang's [Flame Dragon Shield] defense is very strong, and it can help him block any attacks from the [Three Ice Vultures].
However, in the face of this continuous attrition attack, the protection formed by the [Flame Dragon Shield] was visibly rapidly weakening to the naked eye.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang could only stimulate the [Yanlong Guardian] divine power attached to this magic weapon, and then against the attack of the [Three Ice Vultures], his fists were crossed in front of him, and he burst into cheers.
The roar of the dragon that shook the sky rushed into the sky, and a blue-golden dragon suddenly rose from behind Zhou Yang and flew out, roaring angrily and swooping down on the [Three Ice Vultures].
At this time, Zhou Yang's "Canglong Body Refining Technique" was already only one step away from the fourth layer, and the Canglong True Form formed by casting [Canglong's Fury] already had a trace of real dragon power.
It can be clearly seen that when the dragon groan, the body of the [Three Ice Vultures] trembled slightly, and the attack was much weaker.
But after all, it was a fifth-order high-grade demon beast, and it quickly got rid of the influence of the dragon's might, and roared angrily and waved its claws towards the blue-golden dragon.
However, although the blue-gold blue dragon seems to be tangible, it is essentially only a form of power, not a real flesh and blood.
[Three Ice Vultures] took the initiative to come up, but they fell into the net.
After a loud bang, the blue feathers on the [Three Ice Vultures] were suddenly blown up all over the sky, and the bloody feathers flew away, and the six eagle eyes of the [Three Ice Vultures] of different colors also seemed to be stained with a layer of blood, and their eyes were red.
It hadn't been injured for a long time, but today it was wounded, by a human monk.
It made it furious.
I saw that its three heads opened its mouth in unison and let out an angry roar, and suddenly spit out three ring magic weapons of different colors.
One of the white rings that exuded icy cold power quickly lassoed Zhou Yang's [Sun Burning Heart Spear], and then a large amount of white cold qi overflowed from the white ring, actually freezing the fire attribute [Sun Burning Heart Spear].
Then a silver ring flashing with silver electric light suddenly expanded and became larger and set on the top of the [Qianyang Golden Pagoda], and also released countless silver thunderbolts to smash the golden pagoda, as if it wanted to destroy the pagoda.
As for the cyan ring surrounded by blue light at the end, it was directly towards Zhou Yang himself.
"What a wicked animal, Hugh is rampant!"
Zhou Yang shouted, directly waved his hand, and grabbed the cyan ring set towards him in the air.
The cyan ring was grabbed by him, and he immediately released countless fragmented wind blades to cut towards his palm, smashing his palm covered with blue-gold dragon scales into a "clanging" sound.
"Crush me!"
Zhou Yang shouted again, and a golden true fire suddenly appeared on his palm, scorching the cyan ring.
Under the refining of the domineering "Qianyang True Fire", the cyan aura released by the cyan ring suddenly dimmed rapidly, and it didn't take long for it to be crushed into several pieces by Zhou Yang.
After destroying the cyan ring, Zhou Yang raised his hand and waved, and the golden true fire in his hand flew towards the [Sun Burning Heart Spear] that was frozen in ice.
At the same time, he pinched his hands, and the [Qianyang Golden Pagoda] that was trapped by the silver ring also rapidly expanded and expanded, and the silver ring was forced to burst and fly back into the mouth of the [Three Ice Vultures].
The three ring magic weapons, at first glance, look extraordinary, but in fact, they are all fifth-order lower-grade magic weapons, but because of the rarity of their refining materials, they are just extraordinary.
Zhou Yang was also unprepared in advance, so he would be succeeded by the [Three Ice Vultures], otherwise, with the subtlety of a few magic weapons in his hand, how could he be so easy to get started.
At this time, after he reacted, he attacked brazenly, and instantly destroyed and severely damaged the opponent's two magic weapons, and suppressed the arrogance of the [Three Ice Vultures] in one fell swoop.
Inevitably, the last remaining white ring was also damaged, and the [Three Ice Vultures] had to take the initiative to recall the white ring that held the [Sun Burning Heart Gun], and then its six eagle eyes stared at Zhou Yang, with a fierce light in their eyes.
The three ring magic weapons were all begged for it by its sixth-order demon king's mother from another demon king who was good at refining weapons, although compared to its current strength, these three magic weapons were of little use, but they were extremely commemorative.
At this time, Zhou Yang destroyed one of them and severely injured one of them, which made it even angrier than hurting it before.
The killing intent in its eyes surged, and the three heads opened their mouths at the same time again, and they actually spewed out three demonic pills with shining spiritual light.
Three Demon Pills!
[Three Ice Vultures] actually formed three demon pills!
Zhou Yang, who saw this scene for the first time, was also surprised.
There are many demon beasts in the Immortal Cultivation Realm that have multiple heads like the [Three Ice Vultures], but the vast majority of demon beasts can only condense a single demon pill.
A demon beast like the [Three Ice Vultures] that formed three demon pills, Zhou Yang had only seen it in some classics before, and it was the first time he had really seen this situation.
At this moment, three demon pills erupted from the mouth of the [Three Ice Vultures], floating in a triangle in mid-air, and then each released a force to converge in the middle.
When Zhou Yang saw this scene, he immediately turned around and ran away without saying a word.
He didn't come here this time to fight to the death with the [Three Ice Vultures], so there was no need to stay and take the other party's big move.
And after spitting out those three magic weapons from the [Three Ice Vultures], Zhou Yang also extinguished the idea of killing the other party.
Whether it is a human monk or a demon beast, the treatment of those who have a backstage will always be different compared to those who do not.
Those demon beasts that don't have a backstage, or those that don't have a hard backstage, Zhou Yang will kill them if he kills them, and he is not afraid of getting into any trouble.
But a demon beast like [Three Ice Vultures], which is not ordinary at first glance at the backstage, unless the other party threatens his life, he will have to weigh the consequences of killing the other party.
In terms of protecting the short, the demon clan is often more powerful than the human monks.
Zhou Yang didn't want to be remembered by a powerful sixth-order demon king.
[Three Ice Vultures] obviously didn't expect that Zhou Yang would escape so decisively, but it spewed out all the demon pills, so how could it give up easily.
Therefore, after a little preparation, it activated the trick in advance.
I saw that the power formed by the intersection of the three demon pills suddenly formed a three-color pillar of light and rushed upward, and then it had already fled to the top of Zhou Yang's head dozens of miles away, and suddenly a three-color pillar of light descended on his head.
This kind of attack that was completely contrary to common sense made Zhou Yang also surprised in his heart, and hurriedly urged the [Yanlong Shield] to go up, and then he still felt that it was not safe, and urged the [Qianyang Orb] to release the [Qianyang Heavenly Fire Cover] divine power to protect himself.
Thundered!
The three-colored pillar of light fell on the [Flame Dragon Shield], which immediately triggered a fierce explosion.
The [Yanlong Shield], which had never disappointed Zhou Yang since it arrived, failed to withstand this wave of explosions this time, and was blown away on the spot, and then the aftermath fell on the golden flame shield held up by Zhou Yang, almost breaking the shield.
This made Zhou Yang frightened for a while.
You must know that because of his escape, the [Three Ice Vultures] move has not yet been fully completed.
The attack that has not yet been charged is so powerful, it is hard to imagine how powerful this move will be after the charge is completed!
This time, he no longer had the idea of fighting to the death with the [Three Ice Vultures].
Zhou Yang fled faster.
And when the [Three Ice Vultures] saw that their trick did not kill the enemy as they wished, they were surprised and angry at the same time, and when they even withdrew the demon pill, they chased after Zhou Yang.
It is a fifth-order high-grade demon bird, and its flight speed is much faster than Zhou Yang's, and Zhou Yang wants to escape under its nose, but it is a fantasy.
On the other side, seeing that Zhou Yang had led away the [Three Ice Vultures], Bailu Zhenren, who had been hiding in the distance, immediately dived into the ice peak.
Somewhat unexpectedly, in addition to the [Three Ice Vultures], there was another fifth-order demon beast on the ice peak.
It was a fifth-order low-grade demon beast [Ice Demon], this demon was hidden behind the entrance to the lair of the [Three Ice Vultures], guarding the treasures in the lair for the [Three Ice Vultures].
Fortunately, it was Bailu Zhenren, a Yuan Infant Monk, who came to steal the treasure, and if he was a Jindan monk, he would not be able to find the hidden [Ice Demon], and then he would lose his life in a daze.
But now, before this [Ice Demon] discovered the identity of the intruder, it was directly cut off by a sword light.
After killing the [Ice Demon] guarding the lair, Bailu Zhenren just took the crystal nucleus in the opponent's body and directly entered the ice cave.
Half an hour later, Bailu Zhenren, who was full of joy, walked out of the ice cave, took out a spirit rune to inspire and inform Zhou Yang of his success, and then directly left the ice peak and returned to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm.
After Zhou Yang received the notice from Bailu Zhenren, he didn't entangle with the [Three Ice Vultures] anymore, and directly sacrificed the [Zhentian Canglong Ding] to ban the sky, and then the fist shadow flashed, and several punches bombarded the three heads of the [Three Ice Vultures] in a row, beating them to the point that their eyes were full of gold stars and their heads were dizzy.
Immediately after that, as soon as he collected the magic weapon, he directly pinched the trick and unleashed the [Rainbow Golden Escape] supernatural power, and soon turned into a golden rainbow light and disappeared on the battlefield.
By the time the [Three Ice Vultures] came back to their senses from the dizziness, the others had already flown hundreds of miles away, and the hidden aura of the "Dragon Avoidance Skill" was hidden.
The "Dragon Avoidance Skill" in the Xiaocheng realm can almost perfectly restrain Zhou Yang's breath, and the [Three Ice Vultures] are not those demon beasts who are naturally proficient in tracking supernatural powers, so it is impossible to find his figure.
So, after venting his anger, the [Three Ice Vultures] could only return to the nest in anger.
It's just that when it returned to the lair and found the slain [Ice Demon] and the empty lair, its anger soared to the peak in an instant, and the faint remnant of the Yuan Infant Monk's aura made it even more terrified.
This mixture of anger and fear made it no longer able to resist spitting out a blue feather and breaking it off on the spot.
Half an hour later, a blue ice vulture with a wingspan of more than 100 feet suddenly appeared on the top of the ice peak with a long roar.
Hearing the howling, the six eagles hurriedly rushed out of the ice cave, and the six eagles whispered at the blue ice vulture with joy and fear, telling what happened to them.
After the blue ice vulture listened to the story of the [Three Ice Vultures], a pair of eagle eyes as bright as sapphire suddenly glared at it fiercely, and scolded angrily: "Fool, even such a simple plan to divert the tiger from the mountain will be fooled, don't say that you are the son of this king in the future!"
Tweeted!
[Three Ice Vultures] retorted in a low voice in disbelief, but was soon fanned out by the blue ice vulture's wings.
"Stay here honestly and reflect on this king, this king will go after the human infant monk first, and then clean up you idiot when he comes back. ”
After leaving such a sentence, the blue ice vulture turned into a blue phantom and left the ice peak, chasing after it in the direction that Bailu Zhenren left.
Speaking of Zhou Yang, after he escaped the pursuit of the [Three Ice Vultures] by using the "Dragon Avoidance Skill", he followed the route he came from and returned to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm by the same route.
However, compared to the smooth journey when I came, there were a lot of bumps and bumps when I returned.
Without Bailu Zhenren, a primordial infant monk, to warn him at any time, although he remembered the route, he would inevitably encounter some demon beasts moving on the snow field head-on due to such and such sudden reasons.
Although he is strong and can almost quickly subdue those demon beasts that collide with him, he can't always do it without leaving a trace, and sometimes he will still be discovered by some fifth-order demon beasts and chased after him.
At this time, the [Invisible Ice Staff] he got from the "Bingyi Man" helped him a lot.
The [Stealth Ice Staff] allowed him to hide on the snow field, and the "Dragon Avoidance Skill" allowed him to completely conceal his breath, and the combination of the two, except for some high-level demon beasts who were good at smelling and tracking supernatural powers, and were barely able to catch his tail, it was difficult for most fifth-order demon beasts to find his whereabouts.
So under the bumps and bumps along the way, although there were many twists and turns, Zhou Yang finally returned to the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm smoothly.
"Congratulations, Zhou Xiaoyou, you finally came back safely. ”
In an immortal city near the boundless snowfield, Zhou Yang, who had returned from the snowfield, and Bailu Zhenren, who had arrived at this meeting place first, finally converged again.
At this time, after hearing Bailu Zhenren's words, Zhou Yang politely said a few words, then looked at the other party with anticipation on his face and asked, "Senior, has it been smooth on the way, right?"
"Fortunately, although I had a fight with a sixth-order ice vulture chasing after me, nothing went wrong, and it was thanks to Xiaoyou who borrowed the old man's spirit stone to buy the [Yanlong Whip] magic weapon, otherwise the old man would not have been so easy to get out of this time. ”
Bailu Zhenren smiled indifferently on his face, and even told Zhou Yang about his experience.
After Zhou Yang heard from him that a sixth-order ice vulture chased after him to help the [Three Ice Vultures] avenge, he was also afraid and glad in his heart.
Fortunately, he was cautious, and found Bailu Zhenren, a Yuan Infant Monk, to accompany him in advance, otherwise he would kill Bingfeng in a daze, and without knowing the background origin of the [Three Ice Vultures], he was really likely to rely on the divine power of the [Zhentian Canglong Ding] to kill the [Three Ice Vultures] strongly, and the consequences would be really unimaginable!
"This is the [Ice Tears] that Xiaoyou wants, Xiaoyou will check it and see if there is anything wrong. ”
In the room, after Bailu Zhenren finished talking about his experience, he waved his hand and took out the [Ice Tears] that Zhou Yang wanted and put it on the table.
Although the name of [Ice Tears] is called a flower, it actually looks like a Ganoderma lucidum, such as ice carving, which usually grows on the ice of ten thousand years in extremely cold places, and grows with extremely cold aura as nourishment.
Probably located in the connection between it and the flower, is the surface of the white ice mushroom, growing wisps of beautiful blue patterns, these blue patterns are densely intertwined, making it indeed look a bit like a strange spirit flower.
And the real usefulness of this thing lies in the teardrop-like blue droplet in the center of the plate, which is only the size of a fingernail, but it is the essence of the entire [Ice Tear].
At this time, the entire [Ice Tear] and the Wanzai Cold Ice it was rooted in were placed on the table by Bailu Zhenren, and after Zhou Yang carefully inspected and determined that this was the real [Ice Tear], he carefully took out a jade box made of [Millennium Cold Jade], dug out the [Ice Tear] by the roots and put it into the jade box to seal.
It wasn't until he put away the jade box that Bailu Zhen, who had never made a sound, looked at him and said, "Okay, since Xiaoyou has obtained the [Ice Tears], the old man promised Xiaoyou that the thing is completed, and the old man will visit a friend who is practicing in the Northland, so he won't send Xiaoyou back." ”
When Zhou Yang heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Don't dare to send the seniors to each other, just go back by yourself." ”
Then he watched Bailu Zhenren leave the room and disappear from sight.
From beginning to end, Zhou Yang didn't ask Bailu Zhenren what treasures there were in the lair of the [Three Ice Vultures] besides [Ice Tears].
He knew very well in his heart that no matter what other treasures Bailu Zhenren got there, it was not for him to ask.
At the beginning, in order to repay the original favor, he accompanied Xu Zhengyang to the boundless snowfield, and he still wanted to make something worth the return fare, Bailu Zhenren, as a monk in the Yuan Infant Period, of course he couldn't accompany him to run for nothing.
He is self-aware of this, and he still has it.
