Chapter 243: Extreme Cold
Not long after, with a jolt, the runes around the golden-veined spirit boat flickered, and it rose into the air under the support of a golden light, and sped towards the depths of the frozen sea.
Han Li didn't enter the attic, but came to the bow of the Spirit Boat, standing alone with his hands behind his back, raising his eyes to look out, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and the sound of hunting.
I saw that the sea was white and boundless, with thick ice everywhere, and sometimes some black reefs covered with hoarfrost or huge icebergs could be seen sporadically exposed to the sea.
In the far reaches of the sea, the fog is thick and the vision becomes very blurred.
Birds can rarely be seen in the sky over the entire sea area, and both the sea and the sky appear very quiet, giving people the illusion of emptiness and loneliness, as if there is no life in this frozen world, and there are not many living creatures.
In fact, through his divine sense, Han Li could sense that among the clouds in the higher sky, in the depths of the extremely deep seabed, and even among some icebergs, there were many demon beasts with powerful breaths, but it was only because of the strong aura of the three of them that they did not make a mistake.
Thinking of the previous thunderstorm ocean, Han Li couldn't help but sigh a little at the very different and colorful geographical environment of this Northern Cold Immortal Domain.
After all, there seems to be no such scene in the human world or the spiritual world before, and I believe that in places where I have never been, there are many scenes that I have never seen or even imagined.
As soon as he thought of this, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the short, but quite warm time between himself and Nangong Wan before he secretly ascended to the spirit realm.
This memory has always been sealed in the depths of his heart, a place he does not want to touch.
This is also the reason why he has been alone most of the time since he stepped into the path of cultivating immortals, and he is unwilling to easily get involved in emotional matters.
After all, parting with the life and death of his relatives, even for him now, is a kind of thing that he does not want to face directly.
"If Wan'er can be by her side, from now on, she will be at ease in the sky, in the wilderness and the four seas, and enjoy this northern cold wonder. ”
"Now I don't know what happened to Wan'er, the resources left to her back then should be enough for her to cultivate to the Mahayana period. ”
"I don't know if there will be a day to meet again in this life......"
Han Li muttered a few times in a bit of a distraction, then silently turned around and walked into the attic on the first floor, closing the door.
......
About half a year later.
In the southern part of the frozen sea, in a vast sea filled with mist, there is a white island with a radius of less than a thousand feet.
The island is round and well-defined, resembling a huge white porcelain plate, which is clearly not created by nature, but artificially carved out.
On the island, there are still white stone pillars of high or low standing everywhere, some of which are engraved with Taoist runes, and some are inlaid with pieces of spiritual stones full of spiritual power.
The whole island looked like a huge white circle.
At this moment, over the sea near the island, a golden-veined spirit boat flew in from a distance, and after hovering in mid-air for a moment, it suddenly disappeared with a flash of golden light.
High in the air, three figures flew down and fell towards the island.
These three people were Han Li and the others who had come all the way to Yanling Island, but at this time, their cultivation aura had not been concealed too much, but their appearance and body shape had been greatly changed.
Lin Jiu transformed into a big man with a bearded face, Lin Seventeen transformed into an elegant scribe with a green shirt and a high crown, and Han Li transformed into a fair-skinned weak-crowned young man.
The three of them landed in a small square on the edge of the island, and when they saw a large hall made of white stone in front of them, they walked towards the main hall together.
The furnishings in the main hall are extremely simple, only there is a round stone platform in the hall, on which sits a white-bearded old man cross-legged.
Han Li's gaze swept over and he was somewhat surprised to find that this person was a True Immortal Realm early stage cultivator, and the clothes he was wearing were actually the style of an elder of the inner gate of the Candle Dragon Dao.
"You are here, but you are going to the Cold Continent?" the white-bearded old man glanced at the three of them, did not get up, and asked.
"Exactly. Lin Jiu, who turned into a big man, said unhurriedly.
"Seven Immortal Yuan Stones per person. The old man said expressionlessly.
After the three of them paid their own fees, the white-bearded old man straightened up, walked down from the round stone platform, and walked out with the three of them through a stone gate at the back of the main hall.
After leaving the main hall, the three of them followed the white-bearded old man along a road that was a long and wide road, towards the center of the island.
Han Li glanced down at the pavement under his feet and found that the road was slightly a few inches lower than the ground on either side, and it looked like a groove embedded in the earth, with a mass of runes engraved in it every few zhang.
The further you get to the center of the island, the denser the roads become, crisscrossing each other, making them seem strange and mysterious.
"Lin Jiu Daoyou, if you are not mistaken, this old man is wearing the costume of a Candle Dragon Dao monk?" Han Li looked at the back of the old man in front of him and asked in a sound transmission.
"Not bad. This person should be an inner door elder of the Candle Dragon Dao. Lin Jiu replied.
"Could it be that the teleportation arrays between the Ancient Cloud Continent and the Dark Cold Continent were all built by the Candle Dragon Dao?" Han Li asked with some doubts.
"Not really. The teleportation array established and controlled by the Candle Dragon Dao was only in Yanling Island, while the Ice Pole Island teleportation array located near the Dark Cold Continent was in the hands of the Northern Han Immortal Palace. Lin Jiu replied.
"I see, thanks for the pointers. Han Li said.
While the two were talking, they had already followed the white-bearded old man to a flat area near the center of the island.
Han Li swept his gaze and saw from a distance that there was a circular magic circle surrounded by dozens of stone pillars in the clearing in front of him, each pillar was surrounded by at least seven or eight people, and it looked magnificent.
There were still seven or eight people in the square outside the circle, some standing with their hands in their hands, some sitting cross-legged on the ground, waiting there.
"Elder Fu, these three people are also going to Ice Pole Island, and there are enough people to open the magic circle. The white-bearded old man walked to the square with the three of them, and said to another middle-aged man in the square who was also wearing the costume of a Candle Dragon Dao elder.
"You can enter the circle. The middle-aged man nodded, turned to the others, and said.
Those people had been waiting for a long time, and when they heard this, they immediately looked happy and walked into the teleportation array one after another.
Seeing this, Han Li and the others immediately followed.
After all the ten people stood still, the white-bearded old man nodded at the middle-aged man, and the two of them each came to a circular stone platform on both sides of the circle and sat down cross-legged.
With the sound of chanting coming from the mouths of the two people, the white stone pillars around the large array lit up one after another, and the spirit stones inlaid on them and the engraved lines all emitted a burst of dazzling light.
Soon, this light spread, and even the roads on the ground were lit up, and the other stone pillars standing all over the island were also lit up, and the entire island array was in operation.
"Buzz"
There was a humming sound, and the entire white island trembled violently.
Han Li was in the middle of the formation, and when he looked up at the sky, he saw that the clouds in the sky were surging wildly, gradually forming an unfathomable huge void, from which bursts of palpitating spatial fluctuations were emanated.
The outer part of the island, the fog that shrouded it was also affected by this force, and it retreated towards the surrounding island, accumulating into a ring wall of mist.
At this moment, there was a loud "boom".
The entire island shook suddenly, and a piece of colorful light came out from the magic circle in the center of the island, turning into a huge pillar of colored light, and soaring straight into the sky.
The figures of Han Li and the others were engulfed in colored light and disappeared in an instant.
After a while, the large array gradually stopped, and the clouds disturbed by the large array in the high sky and the surrounding fog wall persisted for a long time.
......
In the northern part of the frozen sea, lead clouds hung low in the sky, and the wind howled.
Snow is falling from the sky, covering the entire sea.
Above some of the dim seas, frozen waters and blizzards, blown by the strong winds, formed huge ice cones more than 100 feet high, pointing obliquely into the sky, dense like a forest.
In the midst of this forest of ice picks, stands an oval-shaped island shrouded in a curtain of cyan light.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of rolling thunder in the sky, and the entire oval island shook violently, lighting up with a colorful light, and on a magic circle in the middle of the island, more than ten figures suddenly appeared.
They were none other than Han Li and the others who had teleported here from Yanling Island.
At this time, everyone's faces were a little pale because of the influence of ultra-long-distance teleportation, and a few of them who were weaker in cultivation even felt that their souls were a little shaken.
Han Li only felt a little tightness in his chest, and he didn't feel anything else.
He glanced around, and saw that the surrounding environment was similar to Yanling Island, and they were all the same magic circle layout, except that the original white stone pillars had all been replaced by crystal icicles.
"Now that the teleportation has been completed, why don't you leave quickly?"
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the array.
Han Li looked over and saw a thin old woman wearing a white cloak and white hair standing there, holding a white dragon wooden staff in her hand, staring at everyone with an indifferent face.
Everyone hurriedly walked down from the center of the circle, and under the guidance of the old woman, they hurried towards the northern edge of the island.
There, there stood a large hall of white ice crystals, with a large desk in it, and a round-faced old man with a kind face sat behind it.
Compared with the old woman's indifferent face, the old man's face was full of smiles.
"Welcome to the Dark Cold Continent, but before leaving Ice Pole Island, please pay another three Immortal Yuan Stones per person. The old man spread his palms and said with a smile.
Han Li was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to Lin Jiu with an inquiring look.
Seeing this, Lin Jiu nodded and explained:
"This is the practice of Candle Dragon Road and the Northern Han Immortal Palace, and it is the same when you go back to Yanling Island later. ”
Han Li nodded silently, but he couldn't help but be a little speechless in his heart.
Ten Immortal Yuan Stones are required for one way, which means twenty for a round trip. I have traveled a long distance in the Impermanence Alliance to do a task of not low level, and I am afraid that it will not be worth the cost of this round trip.
If it weren't for the high reward for this mission, this cost would not be nothing, otherwise, with your own means, you would never have paid the travel fee so easily.
After everyone handed over the immortal yuan stone, they came to the front of the hall on the other side of the main hall.
The round-faced old man didn't get up either, but just raised his palm towards the door of the temple, and wiped the void.
The blue light flashed at the door of the temple, and on the light curtain that shrouded the outside, a circular passage with a height of one person suddenly opened.
"I wish you all a smooth journey. The old man said with a smile.
When Lin Jiu heard this, he stepped out of the hall gate and came to the square outside the main hall, and Han Li and the two of them followed closely behind, stepping out.
After the three, the other seven people who came here also came out one after another.
As soon as Fang Fang stepped out of the hall, the snow immediately fell head-on, accompanied by a palpitating extremely cold force, Rao is Han Li had already prepared for this, but he still couldn't help frowning slightly.
Looking at the white world in front of him, his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the scene when he first arrived in the Northern Cold Immortal Domain, and at that time, he also stepped into the wind and snow like this, but the power of extreme cold in his memory seemed to be even better.
At that time, I was full of longing, and the mood of stepping on the fairy journey for the first time is still fresh in my memory, but I still can't remember the various encounters after that.
This immortal path is slim, full of dangers, and I don't know when I will be able to show my real name openly.
With this in mind, he clenched his fists hanging at his sides.
