Chapter 194: The Frozen Man
Qiao Yuan didn't care about Xiao Bai's sarcastic words at all, he looked at Xiao Bai quite seriously, and said slowly.
"Do you know where the Snow Mountain Xuanbing is?"
Xiao Bai was stunned by Qiao Yuan's look and tone, but when it heard the word "Xuan Bing", its pupils shrank slightly, and its expression changed from usual to solemnity.
"Xuan Bing, what are you looking for Xuan Bing?"
"Take the chill. ”
When Qiao Yuan saw Xiao Bai's expression, he knew that there must be Xuan Ice here, and the two apes must know where it was, and he also wanted to know whether there was a cold aura in the Xuan Ice through them, so he said truthfully.
It's not that Qiao Yuan doesn't believe Qu Yunwei, after all, she also said it, she just heard about it, and she is not 100% sure, so this matter has to be carefully confirmed.
"It seems that you are not only a weak chicken, but also a stupid chicken, how can you obtain a cold qi that a mere qi refining cultivator can obtain, I am afraid that you will be frozen into icicles before you get close there. ”
When Xiaobai heard Qiao Yuan's words, he immediately showed contempt in his eyes and said urgently.
Qiao Yuan naturally knew in his heart how dangerous it was to obtain the cold and evil qi, and it was recorded in the secret of the evil wind finger that it was extremely dangerous to absorb and refine the extremely evil qi, and if he could not build a foundation for cultivation, he would never be able to absorb it.
Even when it comes to the foundation building stage, there is a great risk, and only when you really reach the knot stage can you freely absorb and refine the extreme evil qi and exert the power of the evil wind finger to the extreme.
With his perfect cultivation of refining qi to absorb and refine the cold qi, the risk is too great, if one is not careful, the cold evil enters the body and cannot be controlled by him, then Qiao Yuan is likely to lose his life because of this.
"I've cultivated a secret and need the blessing of this chilling aura, so I hope you can take me to see it. ”
Qiao Yuan was silent for a while, looked at the two apes with an extremely serious expression, and said slowly.
"Fool, what you cultivate must be the secret of harm, absorbing the cold and evil qi, isn't that sending you to death? Why don't you play with us, and I will teach you a new secret." ”
Da Bai looked innocent, looked at Qiao Yuan and said.
Qiao Yuan's eyes showed unwillingness, shook his head, and said again.
"I still want to go and see, ask the two of you to help, tell me where the Xuanbing is, as long as the two of you tell me, I will definitely take the time to play with you for two more days." ”
As soon as Da Bai heard "play for two more days", his eyes immediately lit up, he and Xiao Bai were on this sandbank, they have no playmates since they were children, but monkeys are playful, so many years, it is really lonely, only after the outside disciples enter the cold and hot valley, they can play with people.
Xiao Bai's little eyes were rolling around, and at first glance, he was thinking of some bad idea, he directly kicked his feet, jumped on Qiao Yuan's back, and said slowly.
"Okay, but you have to promise me two conditions, first, you can't die, and second, you will be my mount for three days. ”
When Qiao Yuan heard this condition, his brows furrowed slightly, but after thinking for a moment, he still nodded, he had no choice but to grovel to the monkey, who told him to ask for this monkey is extremely cunning and has some bad taste.
This Xiaobai is smaller, and when he stands up, he will reach Qiao Yuan's knees, and at this moment, he will not be too embarrassed by Qiao Yuan's back, and at this moment he is glad in his heart that it is not Dabai who made this request.
"Hey...... , When you become the master's mount, you naturally can't call it a weak chicken anymore, let's change your name, just call it stupid chicken, white chicken, flying chicken, big white, which name do you say?"
"It's called a flying chicken, and it sounds very domineering, and it feels like it's running fast. ”
Seeing Qiao Yuan nodding, the two apes were quite excited, and discussed directly with themselves.
Qiao Yuan listened to the conversation between the two apes, and cold sweat couldn't help but break out on his forehead, he knew that he had a hard time in the past three days.
Qu Yunwei covered her mouth with her jade hand on the side, giggling non-stop, this kind of smile appeared on her face for the first time.
"Okay, the two monkey masters should lead the way, and when it gets dark later, we won't be able to leave. ”
"Little flying chicken, the master is not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry, the master will take you to the path when it gets dark. ”
Xiao Bai lay on Qiao Yuan's back, snorted softly, knocked on the back of his head, and said slowly.
Qiao Yuan took a deep breath, his face showed a look of grievance, and he secretly said in his heart: "Dead monkey, I put up with it, and I'll see how I clean you up in three days." ”
Then the two monkeys chattered again, and Da Bai took the lead and led the way.
It didn't stop at the fork in the road, and went straight to the diagonal passage.
Qiao Yuan, together with Qu Yunwei, followed closely behind Da Bai and entered the passage.
This passage is much narrower than the passage of hot spring water, which can only allow one person to pass through, and it is extremely tortuous, a short distance of 100 zhang, and several people don't know how many times the direction has changed with this passage, but Qiao Yuan can feel that this passage is going up.
During this period, several people also encountered a fork in the road, but there was a big white belt road, and several people did not stop.
Time passed slowly, and Qiao Yuan found that the temperature of the water in this passage had dropped a lot, and he knew that they were already far away from the hot spring water channel.
After a while, Qiao Yuan saw that the passage above was frozen by a thick layer of ice, which was quite thick, and at a cursory glance, it was half a foot.
The half-zhang thick ice layer is quite difficult to break from below, but it is not a big problem, Qiao Yuan is confident that he will break it with a broken mountain stick, but at this moment, Da Bai is in front, it rushes up quickly, and directly smashes it towards the ice with a punch.
The sound of clicking echoed, and the half-zhang thick ice layer formed a spider web with the fist as the center, and there were fine cracks, Da Bai retreated, and smashed it with a punch again, this time with a direct bang, the ice broke open, and a large amount of water and ice rose into the sky, and then fell on the water surface, splashing with bursts of waves.
Da Bai took the lead, jumped out of the water and landed on the ice, followed by Qiao Yuan and Qu Yunwei, who also landed on the ice.
After the two apes came ashore, their whole bodies trembled, and under the operation of spiritual power, the water on their bodies was instantly evaporated.
Qiao Yuan and Qu Yunwei were like two chickens in soup, wet, and the place was extremely cold, and the cold was quite heavy, but in an instant, the water on their bodies showed signs of freezing.
The two of them hurriedly used their spiritual power to steam out the water on their bodies, otherwise they would be two icicles in a few breaths after a few breaths.
After the clothes on his body were dry, Qiao Yuan scattered his divine sense in all directions to inspect the situation here.
This is a dark mountain ice cave, full of crystal icicles and ice spikes, so to speak, there is not a single object except ice, not even a stone.
The underwater passage was sealed by a thick layer of ice for a short time, but Qiao Yuan didn't care about this, he slowly took a step and followed the big white in front of him.
The space of this ice cave is extremely large, and Qiao Yuan's divine consciousness is spread out for hundreds of zhang and he can't see the edge, because the cold here is too strong, and his divine sense can't spread too far, so at most, it will be scattered a hundred zhang away.
The ground of the ice cave was not horizontal, but sloped, and Dabai kept walking slowly downward, his pace was slower and he seemed to be quite careful.
After walking about a thousand zhang away, the cold air here has reached an extreme, even a little thicker than the cold air at the cold wind whirlpool on the top of the mountain, Qiao Yuan and Qu Yunwei are faintly unbearable, but Xiaobai and Da Bai are like no one, there is no discomfort at all.
Qu Yunwei frowned, hesitated for a moment, and took out a blue bead again, and after crushing it, a blue light curtain was emitted to envelop Qiao Yuan and her, she didn't have many beads anymore, and she would naturally feel a little distressed when she used it at this moment.
Suddenly, Qiao Yuan's divine sense saw an extremely amazing scene in the icicle in front of him, which made his steps slam suddenly, and his expression suddenly changed.
Frozen in those icicles, there were men and women, old and young, dressed in very similar clothes, and they all had the same strange mark on their eyebrows.
They knelt down to worship, prayed sincerely, or bent down and prostrate, all of them looked extremely respectful, without a little struggle or pain, as if they were willing to be frozen here.
Qu Yunwei also saw these frozen people, her face showed shock, and she stood there in a daze, with an indescribable discomfort in her heart.
"Monkeys, do you know who they are, how can they be frozen here?"
Qiao Yuanjian saw that the two apes did not show too surprised looks, and immediately asked.
"I don't know, we came here once, and I was quite surprised to see these people that time, but I didn't stay long before I was arrested by my grandfather. ”
Xiaobai was still on Qiao Yuan's back, and when he heard Qiao Yuan's question, he said very casually.
Qiao Yuan nodded and didn't ask again, it can be seen from the clothes and hair accessories of these people that these people have been frozen here for a long time.
After hesitating for a moment, Qiao Yuan walked slowly towards those icicles, but as soon as he approached those icicles, he felt an extremely rich cold spiritual power permeating the surroundings, and the intensity of this cold spiritual power was not even lower than the cold spiritual power in the ice lake in the Cold Flame Valley.
Qu Yunwei followed behind Qiao Yuan, and she also felt the extremely strong cold spiritual power, but there was a blue light curtain around them, and this cold spiritual power was also partially resisted.
"Don't waste your strength, this is caused by the overflow of spiritual power from these dead people, which has accumulated for many years, although it has dissipated a lot, but it is not something we can resist. ”
Xiaobai patted Qiao Yuan's shoulder and said slowly.
Qiao Yuan frowned, his eyes showed unwillingness, when he just approached here, he suddenly sensed a trace of extremely evil qi from this cold spiritual power, which made him excited, according to the record in the secret of the evil wind finger, this extremely evil qi was not cold, but deadly.
This discovery made Qiao Yuan even more excited, the Death Evil Qi is more difficult to obtain than the Cold Evil Qi, because its birth conditions are extremely harsh, and it needs to be cultivated into a powerful monk whose body will not rot after death, and then be nurtured in an extremely harsh environment for thousands of years before a trace of Death Qi can be born.
After this Death Evil Qi is fused into the Evil Wind Finger, the power is indescribable, even if the opponent's cultivation is higher than that of the caster, if he is hit by the Death Evil Finger, he will definitely be eroded by the Death Qi and die.
