Chapter 735: Xuanbing Pit
Mu Qing summoned the spirit insect Xiaoyu, successfully got the token, and followed the team into the Hanxiao Tower.
As soon as he entered, there was a circular hall of ice crystals, where the monks who had entered before were already waiting, and a monk dressed in the unique animal skin robes of the Hanxiao clan stood on a high platform, looking to be in his fifties, of medium stature, with a thin face and a beard under his mouth.
After everyone entered the hall, the Hanxiao clan monk on the high platform spoke loudly and said, "Fellow Daoists, down there is the elder of the Hanxiao clan, the current patriarch of the Qiu clan, Qiu Chi. First of all, on behalf of the Han Xiao clan, I welcome you to participate in this grand event personally planned and prepared by the patriarch of the clan, Han Wu! I believe that many Taoist friends have heard about this grand event, and I still want to explain it to you in detail:
"First, this Ling Xue Festival is divided into two steps, the first is to select the Daoists and Ice Beasts with the purest cold power, and the Daoists who pass the selection will enter the next link - to help the Han Dance Patriarch create a peerless cold weapon, and this peerless cold weapon will be given to the patriarch's beloved disciple as a real gift of apprenticeship-Ling Xue girl. That's how this event got its name!
"Second, these Daoists who participated in the creation of the peerless cold weapon have done our clan a great favor, and in return, our clan will give away a piece of 10,000-year-old Xuanice!
A hint of envy appeared on Qiu Chi's face, and he continued: "I don't know how much you know about this 10,000-year-old Xuanbing, the size of a broad bean is really rare, and even the old man doesn't have such a big one. If you use it to assist in cultivation, it will greatly increase the cultivation speed of the ice attribute exercises, and even have the effect of assisting the ice spirit root Daoist friends to impact the realm; if you make a small magic weapon, such as an ice needle, such as a body protection spirit jade, it can be called the best, once it is urged, the cold qi is vertical and horizontal, and it is not an ordinary magic weapon that can be defeated; if you take it out and sell it, it will be a huge number of spirit stones; the Dark Moon Fang of the Purple Sun Country has repeatedly fought the idea of this 10,000-year-old Xuan Bing, but it has been in vain! All in all, as long as you pass the selection and get this piece of 10,000-year-old Xuan Ice, it will be worth the trip!"
When he said this, everyone in the audience was full of excitement and eager to try.
However, someone still asked, "There are not a thousand but eight hundred monks of the Han Xiao clan who specialize in ice attribute exercises, why do you need to rely on the power of outsiders to refine an ice attribute magic weapon?"
Another person continued: "If you compete with the power of ice, the spirit crystal is naturally inferior to the spirit element, and the low-level demon beast is naturally not as good as the high-level, everyone show it, what is the matter with the selection that Senior Qiu said?"
Qiu Chi smiled heartily and said, "At first glance, these two Daoists are not cultivating ice attribute exercises, but are bringing ice attribute spirit beasts to participate in the meeting, right?" You may not know that this ice attribute cultivation and the power of the origin of ice and cold are actually two different things, the same ice spirit root, the same ice attribute demon beast, but due to different qualifications, there is a big difference in its origin of the power of ice and cold, just like the mundane ice and the thousand-year-old ice, although they are both condensed by the cold air, but the mundane ice disappears in summer, while the thousand-year-old cold ice is not, its cold aura is condensed, and it can always exude cold for years to decades......"
Glancing at the audience, Qiu Chi continued: "Therefore, the strength of the Origin Ice Cold Power is not in cultivation, but in qualification. Although there are not as many as a thousand people in my Han Xiao clan who cultivate the Ice Attribute Exercises, there are indeed quite a few, but after preliminary testing, there are not many people who have the best Origin Ice Cold Power...... However, you don't need to worry too much, as long as your cold origin is recognized by your clan and passes the selection, even if you can't get the 10,000-year-old ice the size of a broad bean, you still have a small piece. If I explain it like this, can you Taoist friends solve your doubts?"
All the cultivators in the audience bowed their heads one after another.
Qiu Chi said again: "What is this selection method...... Actually, it's very simple, everyone will follow me in and take a look. However, I want to inform you in advance that when you are selected, you need to use all your strength to urge the law and your spirit beast in a magic circle, so that you can affect the power of the original cold in your body. If you feel that the power of the origin is being withdrawn, there is no need to panic, it is exactly what is necessary for this selection, and only when the power of the origin is revealed, then the magic circle can measure its strength. Of course, Daoists who have cultivated secret methods can also activate the secret methods on their own to stimulate the power of the origin of ice. ”
After saying this, Qiu Chi beckoned and said, "Come with me, let's take you to visit the legendary Xuanbing Pit." ”
As he spoke, Qiu Chi took the lead and walked towards a large gate on the side.
Mu Qing listened carefully, but he didn't expect Qiu Chi to say that he would take everyone to visit the Xuanbing Mine in the end. Xindao: Could it be that the Xuanbing Mine of the Han Xiao Clan is in this Han Xiao Tower?
......
The crowd walked in a row and followed Qiu Chi into a wide corridor. The corridor turns slowly and descends at the same time, feeling like it is walking around the outer side of the tower and deep into the ground.
After walking for a long time, the light dimmed a little, and finally a huge ice door appeared in front of him, Qiu Chi hit a magic trick on the ice door, the ice door opened, and inside, there was still a corridor, which was twice as narrow as the previous section.
After walking along this corridor for a long time, there was another ice door in front of him, and Qiu Chi played another trick.
After a total of five ice gates, everyone finally appeared on a platform, and their eyes suddenly opened up.
I saw that this was a huge circular space, surrounded by cliffs formed by ice crystals, and from the platform where everyone was located, it was seven or eight thousand feet long. There are plank roads or stairs around the cliffs, as well as countless large and small platforms and tunnel entrances, which are arranged irregularly.
Looking up along the cliff, the space gradually narrows, and everyone is like being in a hollow ice shoot. The light shines through the ice of the cliffs, glowing with colorful streamers, which is gorgeous.
Below, the space is gradually widened, and there are also plank roads, platforms and tunnel openings on the cliffs, which extend to a depth of hundreds of zhang below, which is a relatively flat ground.
On the ground at the bottom of the pit, you can see a huge Dharma platform built in the center, dozens of large flags are erected around the Dharma platform, and there is a team of monks under each banner, more than one or two hundred, less than dozens of people, and the animal skin robes on the body are different. These monks should be the clansmen of all ethnic groups who came to observe as Sima Wenshan said. They must have come in through a different passage.
For the cultivators who came here for the first time, it was really a spectacle, and they couldn't help but whisper.
"Interesting, interesting!"
This sentence is from that Zhang San.
Qiu Chi looked at everyone's surprised and novel expressions, laughed, and said, "Fellow Daoists, this is the Xuanbing Mine of my Hanxiao Clan. In fact, this was originally an iceberg, this mountain does not have half of the soil and stone, completely condensed with ice crystals, my ancestors found that there are 10,000 years of ice production here, and began to organize the clan to mine. But as you know, the ice crystals are at least at the level of a thousand years of ice before they are useful, and more, although they are more condensed than ordinary ice cubes, but they are not very useful, and it is a pity to abandon them casually, so they simply took local materials and used the mined ice crystals to build this Hanxiao Tower on the outer layer of the iceberg, and then accumulated over time, the entire mountain was hollowed out, and this huge pit was dug underground, and as more and more ice crystals were mined, this Hanxiao City was built!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the plank paths and platforms, and said, "Those are the ones used by the slaves when they mine the ice mines." Today, in order not to hinder the holding of the event, we will take a day off. ”
Mu Qing said in his heart: The cold here is very heavy, mortals can't bear it at all, the "slaves" in his mouth should be the monks who were captured by them, it is estimated that among these slaves now, the monks of the Snow Mountain and Bingling clans will be the mainstay.
"It's empty here, you can fly, everyone come with me!"
Qiu Chi greeted, jumped up, and fell to the bottom of the pit below...... ()
