Chapter Seventy-Three: The Palace of Frost
"Oooh," the surviving monk cheered. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info A huge flying boat lay across the herd of beasts, casting a shadow of death, flying out from all sides of the flying boat with countless fist-sized transparent balls, once it touched the ground or the demon beast, it made a loud "boom" sound, and a circle of cold ice ripples bloomed, freezing the demon beasts on all sides.
"Kui Water Condensation Frost Thunder!"
"The Frost Palace is here!"
...
As soon as the first Kuishui condensation thunder roared, Li Yue put away the Yin Soul Armor, Yin Soul Wing, and Yin Soul Sword, and picked up the unconscious Yang Yuanyong and rushed down the spaceship.
"Fellow Daoists, I, Ning Bi, am the captain of the first patrol team, please get on the boat and go to the Frost Palace!"
"It's Ning Bi Zhenren!" the crowd gathered under the boat sighed, and then climbed up the rope ladder hanging from the flying boat.
The Kuishui Frost Thunder exploded in the herd of beasts, like ice flowers, accompanied by a rumbling sound. Some of the demon beasts that were frozen by the Kuishui Frost Thunder thawed in a moment and chased after the monks again, and some were trampled into ice slag and blood mud by the flying demon beasts before they could thaw.
Li Yue, who climbed on the flying boat, looked over, and was afraid that there were four or five hundred demon beasts gathered under the boat jumping and roaring wildly, and there were also black shadows of demon beasts in the distance. Li Yue was afraid for a while, if the Frost Palace Flying Boat came a little late, all the monks would have no hope of survival.
Li Yue looked around and found that the monks who had just survived, including Yang Yuanyong, a total of fifteen people, were all exhausted and collapsed on the deck. Li Yue took out two Yuanyang pills from his arms, stuffed one into Yang Yuanyong's mouth, and then swallowed one by himself, and began to close his eyes and meditate, seizing the time to recover his physical strength and spiritual strength.
On the flying boat, Ning Bi Zhenren looked at the group of people who had just been rescued suspiciously, just now on the flying boat, she vaguely saw a monk surrounded by ghosts, and the ghosts were flying, it seemed to be a ghost cultivator. She was sure it was the boy who had just carried an unconscious monk on his back. The unconscious monk, judging by his clothes, was obviously a disciple of Cold Wind Valley, and although the young man's face was pale, he was full of vitality, not like a ghost cultivator. According to the classics, the ghost cultivator has been in contact with ghosts for a long time, and his essence is lost, and his flesh and blood are often shriveled and unpretentious, and his eyes are cold and murderous.
The flying boat broke through the frost fog and ice haze, the meteor flew away like the moon, Ning Bi real person, standing on the bow of the boat, the green silk was flying, and the frost white clothes were inspiring. Ning Bizhen's heart is also like an encouraging shirt, which cannot be calmed. Two months ago, the Condensing Frost Palace received traces of demon beasts in the endless forest in the south of Hanzhou, the Condensing Frost Palace, the Five Elements Sword Sect, the Ruimu Palace, and the Lihuo Sect all sent disciples to verify, and in the blink of an eye, the demon beasts were like a flood, rampant everywhere, there were few mortal casualties left, and the smaller sects were like the Cold Wind Valley, the Thousand Miles Sect, and the more than a dozen sects of the Alien Spirit Gate were all broken, the north was dominated by the Frost Palace, the south was dominated by the Ruimu Palace and the Lihuo Sect, and the East was dominated by the Five Elements Sword Sect to form three gathering places for monks and mortals. If this continues, how long can Hanzhou hold out?
Feeling the flying boat gradually stop, Li Yue opened his eyes, and a frost palace shone in the sunlight in front of him.
On the cold ice plain, the four fields are empty, the frost palace towers in it, one hundred and thirty-six palace pavilions, fifty-eight corridors and painting roads, zigzag and loop with each other, shuttle and loop, four watchtowers towering into the clouds, guard the four corners, the whole frost palace is like a crystal palace, a mirage. Ten miles of palace, crystal for the window, glaze for the tile, Ambilight, exquisitely clear, in the blue sky and white clouds, bright sun, light blue snow field against the background, magnificent and magnificent, poetic and picturesque.
From the flying boat overlook, the palace wall at the top of the palace is dotted with dots, surrounded by jade belts, shining brightly. Countless figures, shuttling endlessly, flying sword magic weapons bring beautiful light, such as fireworks blooming, more than a dozen flying boats in and out, full of people, busy and lively.
Ning Bizhen took everyone off the flying boat, and someone immediately caught up and took everyone to the tent to rest, in an orderly manner.
Yang Yuanyong had already woken up, but he was extremely weak, and Li Yue supported him to follow the group of old men in front. The old man was about sixty years old, with a muddy body, and was clearly mortal. As soon as he took a few steps, a young man with a wolf's head around his neck and a beast's head on his waist walked up to him. The old man who led the team bowed his head at him and praised, "Immortal." ”
The young man nodded at him, looked at Li Yue and them suspiciously, and asked, "Senior Brother Yang?"
Yang Yuanyong raised his head, looked at the young man, and shouted happily, "Senior Brother Li!" The two hugged their heads and cried. It turned out that this Li Jing was one of the junior disciples who escaped with Yang Yuanyong all the way, but he was scattered by the beasts on the way, he and another group of people fled in another direction, and were rescued by a team of patrol flying boats, and arrived at this settlement half a month earlier than Yang Yuanyong.
Li Jing invited Yang Yuanyong to live with Li Yue with him, and the two scattered cultivators who had lived with him had died while hunting two days earlier. Li Yue and Yang Yuanyong readily agreed. After Li Yue and Yang Yuanyong settled down, Li Jing went to hand over the wolf's head. Only then did Li Yue know that when they first entered the gathering place, they would distribute food and wound medicine for three days, and then if they needed anything, they would hunt demon beasts, alchemy or refine weapons for exchange, and mortals would wash and cook, cast bows and arrows, and patrol and defend in exchange for a place to survive.
Li Yue's physical strength recovered, and after explaining to Yang Yuanyong, he went out to see the situation of the Frost Palace station. This station is on the periphery of the Frost Palace, with wooden sheds and tents lined up one after another, and pedestrians on the road are in a hurry. Before the tide of demon beasts, monks and mortals abandoned hostility and identity, mixed and lived, each performing its own duties, but got along well.
Unconsciously, Li Yue came to a flat and open place, the monk carried a string of beast heads, and the mortal carried the collected demon beast corpses in exchange for medicine and food, and the people were full of voices. Li Yue also saw Li Jing with the head of the wind-chasing wolf on his body. Each beast head is worth five beast corpses, and the monks disdain to collect and inspect the beast corpses, while some sturdy young mortals form a team to search for fresh and edible beast corpses to bring back, and sometimes the beast corpses have horns, skins, scales, etc., which the monks have not had time to take off or disdain, which are also refining materials, but they can be exchanged for a lot of things.
A ten-year-old female disciple of the Frost Palace, dressed in a frost-white gauze skirt, counted the beast heads, beast corpses, and some bits and pieces handed over, she suddenly found a monk standing aside, looking at herself with interest, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, thinking that the person was obviously a monk, but he did not hunt demon beasts and was idle here, her eyes turned into disdain; 。
Li Yue saw this kind of exchange place for the first time, and was quite interested, but he didn't expect that not long after seeing it, the little girl who counted the prey looked at him frequently, and saw that she was still young and looked pink and delicate, and couldn't help but look at it twice, and found that the little girl's eyes were angry, disdainful, relieved, and vigilant, and the look of vigilance changed one by one, which was very interesting.
The little girl snorted coldly, turned around, and turned her back to Li Yue. Li Yue didn't think much about it, he looked at a notice board next to him with great interest, and there was constantly spell handwriting.
"One Qingling Pill for the head of the Wind Chasing Wolf, two Qingling Pills for the head of the four-horned ox, three Qingling Pills for the head of the Brown-tailed Poisonous Lizard, two for the Yuanyang Pill;...."
Li Yue muttered in a low voice: "I don't know how many beast heads should be exchanged for Huangliang Stone..."
"Okay! It turns out that you thief is trying to rob the yellow sorghum stone!" a frightened child's voice sounded beside him.
Li Yue looked back in surprise, it turned out to be the little girl just now. She was being held in the hands of a middle-aged female cultivator at this time. The nun was very beautiful and had a cold complexion, and she was somewhat similar to the little girl's face, probably the little girl's mother.
The female cultivator was not happy when she saw her daughter's sudden rude and loudly scolded others, but she frowned when she saw that she was speechless and told the secret that there was a yellow stalk stone in the Frost Palace. Huangliang stone is the treasure of the town palace of the frost palace, and those who know it are the core figures of the frost palace, and they have never admitted to the outside world that the frost palace really owns this thing. At this time, his daughter said this, if she refutes, this is getting darker and darker, and there is no silver here. But thinking that at this moment, the demon beasts are rampant, and the entire Hanzhou is almost unsafe, and it is not the time when the broom cherishes herself, she is also a woman with great perseverance and determination, these thoughts turned in her mind, and she blinked an eye.
She chuckled, and her cold face suddenly thawed like a pear blossom, moisturizing and fresh. She said: "It's not much, a demon beast Neidan or a thousand-headed beast head is enough for a little friend to observe the Huangliang Stone for an hour." ”
Li Yue watched the woman drift away, and the girl in her hand turned back frequently and grimaced at him.
"Ha, Brother Li Yue has been ridiculed," Li Jing came over after paying the beast head. He continued: "That's the Palace Master of the Frost Palace, Ziyue Zhenren, and her only daughter, Caiyu. ”
Li Yue nodded and returned with Li Jing, but Li Yue was thinking in his heart, this demon beast really has an inner dan, but one inner pill is worth a thousand beast heads, and the inner dan is not so good. I'm afraid that the demon beasts with Neidan will have the same cultivation as the Jindan monks, and they won't be sent to death? But those thousand beast heads, I think I can also give it a try.
It was unimaginable to think that this trip to Hanzhou would go so smoothly.
