Chapter 32: The Gate of Heaven

The Iron Dragon Tribe was not far away, in a forest of ice thorns to the north.

Iron Pillar led a group of people to the tallest ice spike here. It turned out that this was the ice spike where the patriarch lived before.

This broken place is cold and snowy, there is no stone and wood, but there is no shortage of ice thorns. These mortals used ice spikes as their houses, and the high ice spikes were hollowed out with tools, divided into dozens of layers, and one family lived on one floor. However, the patriarch has one ice spike alone.

There were originally many people in the clearing between the ice thorn forests, each busy with their own things, even the children were running around playing, and when they saw the iron pillar coming back with a person carrying a turtle shell, they were all amazed, and they all gathered around Qiao Yue, and they knelt down again.

Qiao Yue was helpless, kneeling back and forth, what a long life. Turning his head to the iron pillar and said, "You tell them to hurry up, I'm only a teenager, much younger than you, kneel me and don't you give me a birthday?"

Tie Zhu blinked, this immortal master is not very old, but how can he have white hair in his teens. He didn't dare to ask more, nodded, stepped forward and said loudly: "Ning, hurry up and get up!

Hearing what Tie Zhu said, these people stood up one after another, some went back to work, and some stood aside curiously to peek.

Tie Zhu turned around and said to Qiao Yue, "Immortal Master, please Ning go upstairs to see the hungry tribe." ”

As he spoke, Tie Zhu pointed to the highest part of this ice spike and said, "Please go upstairs to the immortal master." ”

Qiao Yue nodded, used the technique of stepping on the sky, and directly jumped up, the vines in his hands flew up, wrapped around the slippery ice, and suddenly froze into ice, and there was a place to borrow.

And the iron pillar behind him, using the nails on his shoes to insert into the ice, also climbed up quickly.

At the top of the ice spike was the patriarch's residence, and I saw an ice cave embedded in the iceberg, Qiao Yue lifted the white bear skin door curtain in front of the ice cave and stepped in.

A warm and dry breath came to my face, and I didn't expect such a large temperature difference between the inside and outside. It's no wonder that the people in the tribe live inside the ice spikes, which are really sheltered from the wind and snow, and will not be frozen to death.

This ice cave is actually a big hall, and the appearance of the decoration actually reminds Qiao Yue of Qiao Mingyuan's cave mansion.

The ice wall is cut flat, the wall is inlaid with many luminous stones, the ground is paved with neat ice bricks, the furniture is crystal clear, all are ice sculptures, and the pattern is carved with hollow techniques, which is very luxurious. In front of the hall are two large chairs carved in ice, covered with white bear skins, which seem to be very comfortable.

There are other rooms on either side of the hall, and the curtains are made of white bear skin, which seems to have taken a lot of thought.

Qiao Yue looked out through the glass window again, and saw countless ice spikes in the distance, and there were mortals living and working in peace and contentment in the open space, which seemed to be a prosperous scene.

"Immortal Master, would you rather be the patriarch of the hungry?"

Seeing that Qiao Yue didn't speak for a long time, Tie Zhu was a little anxious, now there was only one month left, and he had to let the immortal master go to Tianji Gate to report, and he had to have a meeting here, there were a lot of things.

Qiao Yue took a closer look, and she didn't know what kind of cultivation this igloo had been in the past, and whether there were any valuable things left.

"What kind of cultivation did your former patriarch have, and how did he fall? ”

"There are only more than 1,000 people in the hungry Iron Dragon Tribe, and the old patriarch's cultivation has never been asked, anyway, he can't fly, and he is very fierce to the hungry. Later he got into a fight with someone else and died. ”

Qiao Yue understood, no wonder they knelt when they saw the immortal master, it seemed that it was the influence of the previous patriarch.

"The specific situation of this tribe, you have to tell me, what is the life of the tribe like?"

Since he plans to be the patriarch of the Iron Dragon Tribe, he must inquire about the affairs of the tribe, and he will have to deal with affairs in the future.

"The hungry can't plant the land, but there are wild beasts here, so the hungry organize hunting teams, and every once in a while, they go to the sea to hunt. ”

I can't imagine that the lives of these mortals are quite similar to those of monks. Is it just that they don't eat vegetables and grains? Is that why the northerners are physically stronger than the rest of the country......

Qiao Yue asked again: "What powerful tribes are there around here?"

"No, no, just a few of them are very ordinary tribes. I heard the immortal master say that the spiritual veins in this area of the hungry are not good, and the powerful immortal master will not come. ”

Qiao Yue didn't think there was anything, but when she heard this, she glanced at Tie Zhu, "The powerful immortal master won't come?"

Tie Zhu panicked in his heart, knowing that he was speechless, he nodded and said, "No, it's not ......"

"What are you nervous about, it's good if you don't have a powerful immortal master! If there is a foundation building period, then I won't be bullied in a qi refining period?" Qiao Yue Ke understands very well the survival law of the jungle, if there are strong monks all around, then she won't be able to survive at all.

"If that's the case...... Then I'll stay. "Qiao Yue sat on the main seat, which also meant to be the patriarch.

Hearing this, Tiezhu knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you Immortal Master, thank you Immortal Master......"

"What are you doing kneeling around? At such an old age, you are not afraid of breaking my life. In the future, tell the tribesmen, when they see me, don't look like a cat seeing a mouse, how terrible I am. ”

Sending away the iron pillar, Qiao Yue put down the turtle shell and fed Tuanyun animal food.

Tuan Yun hadn't come out of the spirit beast bag for many days, and when he came out suddenly, he was frozen by the cold air, and he sneezed a few times.

Qiao Yue was surprised to find that Tuanyun had grown a lot, before he was only the size of a palm, but now he was the size of a rabbit.

"Tuanyun, why did you grow so fast?" Qiao Yue poked Tuanyun's head, the dense and soft white hair on it was really heartwarming.

Qiao Yue was afraid that Tuanyun would freeze, and when she saw that it refused to enter the spirit beast bag, she found a piece of white bear skin for it as a nest.

Tuanyun called excitedly, scurrying into the nest and curling into a ball, his tail still dangling disobediently.

This action reminded Qiao Yue of the old cats in the village, lazily lying on the ground basking in the sun.

"Tuanyun, why are you so like a cat?" However, Tuanyun's fur is much longer than that of a cat, his tail is larger, and his claws are not sharp.

After chatting with Tuan Yun for a while, Qiao Yue saw that it was getting late, so she entered the inner room, even the bed was made of ice sculptures, fortunately there was a white bearskin bedding.

Qiao Yue went to bed and slept comfortably, and the next morning, Qiao Yue and Tie Zhu got on an ice sled pulled by three dogs and went to Tianji Gate.

The speed of the ice sled was much faster than Qiao Yue's own walking, and the ice thorn forest grew taller and taller along the way, and finally came to an iceberg that was enough to obstruct people's vision.

This iceberg is magnificent, pointing straight to the blue sky, and it seems that even birds cannot cross it. Qiao Yue suddenly remembered a poem "The flight of the yellow crane is not yet passable, and the ape wants to spend his sorrow and climb."

The iceberg is full of ice sculptures, the monks carved out the mountain gate with magic tools, and there are many roads of different widths winding up the whole mountain, and the two stone lions at the foot of the mountain are actually two Xiaoice mountains.

Looking ahead, the monks flew through the air with their magic weapons or rode sleds across the snow and ice.

Qiao Yue found that the monks here were a little rough in appearance, both men and women were generally tall and strong.

But unlike mortals, the monks' skin was more delicate, and there seemed to be a layer of spiritual mist on their bodies.

"Iron Pillar, where are we going?" looked up, this iceberg is full of holes, each hole is unfathomable, it is really head-scratching.

Tie Zhu thought about it for a long time, and when he was the temporary leader, he handled it in a small cave on the first floor.

Tie Zhu chose an ice cave at random and said, "Immortal Master, please." ”

As soon as the two entered, Qiao Yue was immediately surprised.

I saw that there were six holes in this white ice cave, and each hole was a road, like a labyrinth.

"Where are you going?"

Tie Zhu closed his eyes, took out a bone dice from his arms, threw it casually, picked it up and said, "Go to the first hole." ”

Qiao Yue scratched her head, and when she didn't walk long, she came to an ice room again, and saw someone meditating in the middle of the ice room.

Qiao Yue exclaimed in her heart, she didn't need a defensive formation to meditate! And the door was wide open, not afraid of plotting?

She didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, for fear of disturbing the monk.

But Tiezhu was accustomed to it, rolled the dice again, and said, "Go to the third hole." ”

Qiao Yue really wanted to cry, Tie Zhu's way of finding a place was simply unprecedented, and there was no one before or since, just this way, when would she find it!

Cave No. 3 is very long, and it took ten minutes to walk a pillar of incense to a wide stone room, and I saw a strong woman refining pills, but I didn't notice it.

This is the monk of the Heavenly Pole Gate?

Without a sense of privacy and a sense of distress, the mountain gate is wide open, and anyone can enter the sect.

Is it because one family is dominant, so it is fearless, or is it because the people are simple and do not defend each other?

Qiao Yue is a little interested in this strange sect, the people in this place are too interesting.

"Hole No. 4. ”

This time, Qiao Yue was too lazy to dwell on it, Tie Zhu was already an old man, so he naturally had a reason for doing so.

Throwing dice all the way, I saw a lot of monks cultivating. But along the way, he only met Qi Refining Cultivators.

Qiao Yue guessed that this area was originally the territory of Qi refining cultivators, and the exercises they cultivated were definitely not affected by outsiders.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yue became more interested in the Tianji Gate, the unique exercises, which were encounterable but unattainable, if she became the patriarch of the Iron Dragon Tribe, she would definitely be able to obtain the benefits of the Tianji Gate.

"Old Iron?"

Qiao Yue's gentle tone simply flattered Tie Zhu, and he hurriedly leaned down and said, "Tie Zhu is here, I don't know what Ning commands?"

"You say, why is this Heavenly Pole Gate so strange? When I was in the east, everyone's cultivation was an extremely secret thing. Could it be that there is something unusual about this Heavenly Pole Gate's exercises?"

Tie Zhu smiled embarrassedly and said modestly: "Tie Zhu is just a mortal, how can he know this? ”

"Pick what you know and tell me!"

Tie Zhu said: "Speaking of which, the hungry northerners are indeed very poor in appearance, but their physical fitness is extremely strong. When the immortal masters didn't cultivate immortals, it seemed that they were almost the same as the qi refining cultivators you had there. ”

Qiao Yue knew that this was about the same, referring to physical fitness.

"Immortal masters seem to have a unique exercise, what is it called...... What's the trick to ice muscles...... After practice, you can strengthen your body. ”

As soon as Qiao Yue heard that this exercise could strengthen her body, she immediately became interested.

She has been strong since she was a child, and she has not lost her fighting skills, and later she has traveled in many ways, and she likes to practice her body.

Now that she heard about this unique exercise, she naturally wanted to fight for this opportunity.
