Chapter 209: Frozen to death
He was sent out by the head of the family, Jiang Ainian, to assist several heads of Yuhang, who were located in the south of the affected area.
Because of the frequent plagues of hundred-legged insects in the south, he was ordered to lead dozens of disciples with superior strength to rush to save people.
Except for one disciple who was unfortunate (in fact, stupid and afraid of insects) who was seriously injured by dozens of hundred-legged insects, the rest were intact.
On the way back to his life, he encountered another insect tide, and there were too many casualties in the world, so he had to leave those disciples to save people.
And later, Yuhang and Deng Jia, who had already dealt with the affairs of the sect, wanted to go to the head of the Xianmen Sect to go back to their lives first.
Zhao Zhengtang met halfway, and happened to be together, but he didn't expect that the further north he went, the activities of centipede insects followed.
He was still suspicious for a while, thinking that he was being targeted by them.
After so many encounters, every time he wanted to catch their nests, he could only track them to more than 6,000 feet underground.
Although the spiritual consciousness of a monk is powerful, it is not omnipotent.
Just like the flying skills of the 'immortals' that ordinary people in the world yearn for very much, they guessed that the 'immortals' were already able to fly out of this continent and transcend all things in the world.
(Ordinary people often refer to the elusive monks as 'mountain people', or 'immortals', etc., to express their inner longing and awe)
Whether they can transcend this continent after ascending to immortals, they don't know yet, but ......
What they know for sure is that they have never been able to break free from the shackles of this continent.
Every aspiring young man who has just learned the art of flying has been more or less influenced by the widely circulated saying that the flying skills of 'immortals' can already explore the world beyond the continent.
Not really!
From the first day they were able to fly with the sword, they were fantasizing about having the ability to leave the sect, and secretly went to take a look at the world outside the sky.
Although the senior brother and sister regretfully told themselves that there is no outer world, they can't get out at all, maybe there is no so-called other continent at all, there is only their Qitian continent in this heaven and earth.
But there are also many people who don't believe it, why is the Qitian Continent called the Qitian Continent? Who named it? In addition to this continent, are there any other continents?
There are many people in the world who want to eat the first crab, especially the cultivators, who always have a stubborn energy, and the energy to get to the bottom of it is naturally different from ordinary people.
Seeing is not necessarily true, hearing is not necessarily false, personal experience prevails, and practice is the truth.
So, he and some good like-minded brothers and sisters secretly accelerated their cultivation while secretly preparing to 'explore the great plan beyond the heavens'.
However...... One year, two years... 100 years, 300 years, 500 years...... Even seven hundred years later, when they had a premonition that they were about to leave the Qitian Continent, and the world outside the sky seemed to open the curtain and slowly become clear-
There was always such a force, full of soft but undoubted strength, that kicked the figure they were about to pass through the faint barrier back to the Qitian Continent.
From lying on the top of the steep mountain covered in ice and snow, to lying on the green prairie where 'the sky is vast and the grass is blown by the wind and the cattle and sheep are low', and then to lying in the turbulent sea with heavy waves......
The accumulation of frustration and frustration finally knocked them back to their original form, what an outer world!
But the remaining stubbornness in my heart may be hoping that one day when I will fly into an immortal, it will be the moment when the curtain of truth will be lifted.
Such a vague belief prompted them to work hard and practice diligently, which has not been given up to this day.
The power of the divine consciousness made them vaguely participate in some of the power of the laws of heaven and earth related to that barrier, which was really exciting and exciting news for everyone!
So they tried their best to forge and broaden their divine consciousness, which also led to why his divine consciousness was vaguely higher than that of the two masters.
But he only held on more than 500 feet more than them, and his mind hurt, like pins and needles, and there seemed to be something more terrifying underground.
Thinking of the deep fear that his soul was trembling every time he reached more than 5,000 feet, he couldn't help shaking his shoulders and continued:
"Judging from the body of the centipede, they have eight pairs of long and thick limbs, their ventral surface is flat, the back is raised, and the ends of the limbs include the entire shell, and the epidermis is distributed with a large number of short claws, or microspines, except for the abdomen, which are extremely hard and sharp. ”
"And this protective material is the white membrane that adheres to the entire outer skin and abdomen. ”
"Underground, thousands of substances, rats, insects, snakes, ants, lizards, and even demonic spirits, ghosts, extremely inflammatory, white membranes, seem to be able to isolate these harmful substances to a certain extent. ”
"There is only one weakness, and that is the fear of fire. ”
The crowd was puzzled, didn't they say that they liked the heat, and why, their fire spirit power could cause damage to them?
Xun Lin took their doubts into his eyes: "So, my idea is that this thing can resist the extreme heat under the ground, and everyone still remembers the 'volcano outside the Southern Wilderness, in which there are inexhaustible trees, the fire burns day and night, the storm is not violent, the rain is not extinguished, and the immortals work together to build a wall in a formation to stop the flow'?"
(Note: Part of the excerpt from "The Divine Mystery Sutra: The Southern Wilderness Sutra")
Everyone nodded their heads and bowed, following his direction in a slightly thoughtful manner.
Lin Qianqian: ...... Millennial ...... The old lady may not even have a fertilized egg yet! if according to their most advanced atheistic science in Greater China.
"Perhaps just like the volcanic antbear recorded in the history of Nanban Volcano, it has a miniature body and a saber-like jaw with obvious characteristics, like an ant and a bear, and lives in the hot molten flow of the volcano without dying or dying. ”
"Therefore, these crimson centipedes, perhaps because they are too heat-resistant, cannot accept our ordinary and relatively 'cold' fire spiritual power. ”
"This should be why they fade away as soon as it gets dark. And these two centipede insects, perhaps because of the arrival of night, the heat energy generated by the shallow spiritual power turned into a cage is not enough to maintain and support their lives, and then ...... He froze to death. ”
For his successive incisive and incisive analysis, everyone nodded again and again, and Huangfu Song thought for a while, and also nodded to signal him to continue.
"And the strange thing is that such a species risked its life to go up to such a 'cold' ground and take countless human lives. ”
Xun Lin frowned and clapped his hands in distress, and looked at Lin Qianqian: "If these two are alive in the hands of the shallow girl, we can study them more deeply and thoroughly." ”
Zhao Zhengtang was very anxious: "Elder Xuan's analysis, it should be eight or nine to ten, and next, our primary goal is to prepare for the battle, in addition to the attack of the centipede, there is also a possible secondary ground movement." ”
"Yes, but now...... I'm afraid I'll have to wait for their next move......"
