The cold woods, icicles hanging on the branches, this is a world covered by ice and snow. Unlike the scene seen on the ice layer, the space inside the ice palace is larger than you can imagine. Walking inside the ice palace is like being an ant active in the forest.
"Why does this tree look a bit like the weeds outside?"
The flower-backed turtle man walked over and poked the tree in front of him with a finger. The trunk did not move at all. The inside had long been frozen into one piece by the ice, making the plant harder than black iron.
"It's possible that this thing was originally a weed."
Chen Luo looked into the distance, and there was a bronze mountain over there. If you look from a higher angle, you will find that this mountain is not a real "bronze mountain", but a foot of the medicine cauldron. It's just that Chen Luo and the others are too small, so they have this wrong feeling.
The flower-backed turtle was stunned for a moment, then showed an expression of disbelief.
The tortoise shell on his back flashed quickly, and he soon figured out the answer he wanted to know. However, this answer made him doubt his life.
"Really weeds?!"
Who can grow weeds so big? A giant?
Chen Luo didn't say anything, he didn't know the reason. He originally thought that the Arctic Ice Palace was a relic, he could leave as long as he came in and found the people, but now it seems that this place is more troublesome than he expected. He looked up at the sky, and the brain in the external brain that was proficient in formations and restrictions was desperately reminding him that he must not fly.
'No-fly ban.'
Chen Luo had seen this kind of restriction in the tomb of Brother Changqing. This kind of restriction was very complicated. Each restriction was related to the formation outside. It could be said that one move could affect the whole body. Before having absolute strength, no one would take the initiative to trigger this kind of restriction.
A man and a turtle walked slowly along the huge 'forest'.
The branches covered with ice and snow fell down, and the cold air was so low that it could solidify the blood in the human body. Fortunately, Chen Luo and the flower-backed turtle were not ordinary people, and they had spiritual power to protect their bodies, so they were both safe for the time being.
After walking for about an hour, the two finally left the woods.
Outside the woods was a huge bluestone square. The ground was as smooth as a mirror. Under the cover of ice, there didn't seem to be a single dent, and it was so flat that it was a little abnormal.
This is a brick.
A piece of floor tile, Chen Luo and the flower-backed turtle walking on it, look like two inconspicuous ants.
"Calculate the location of that ascender."
Chen Luo stopped and said something to the flower-backed turtle next to him. He caught this old turtle to help him find someone. The Arctic Ice Palace looked normal from above the ice, but it was obvious that something was wrong when he entered. Several brains in the external brain that were sensitive to danger were reminding him to stay away from this place. But it was not safe outside now. If he went out, he would have to face the war between the Sword Control Sect and the demons. In comparison, it was not as safe as here.
The old turtle bent down and retracted its limbs and head into its shell.
The tortoise pattern lit up, and the huge tortoise shell rotated in place. Soon, the stream of light on it was fixed on a certain piece of tortoise shell. Sensing the change, the flower-backed tortoise quickly stood up, pointed to the front and said.
"The direction is correct, it's just ahead."
After confirming their location, the two continued to move forward. The further they went inside, the colder the air became.
White frost was everywhere and the cold wind was raging.
Even if a foundation-building cultivator came in, they would not be able to survive in this temperature. Chen Luo and the flower-backed turtle were both at the Nascent Soul stage, but even at the Nascent Soul stage, they felt the pressure when facing this cold air.
After walking for a while, the two arrived at the foot of the "Bronze Mountain".
A strange and refreshing fragrance wafted down from the Bronze Mountain, like elixir or the bamboo incense used for sacrificial ceremonies.
Alchemy? Or sacrifice?
Chen Luo stretched out his right hand.
White light flashed, and two excited silver-winged centipedes flew around and appeared on the back of his hand. These two strange insects that Chen Luo had thrown into the insect breeding bag as waste and didn't pay much attention to became extremely active after entering this extremely cold area, and their abilities increased several times.
"Go up and take a look."
Chen Luo gave orders to the two centipedes and at the same time attached a wisp of spiritual consciousness to their bodies.
A flash of silver light passed through the cold wind and icy fog and disappeared into the air.
Chen Luo sat down on the spot, closed his eyes and sensed the perspective attached to the two strange insects.
After passing through the ice fog layer, there was a 'bronze mountain' that seemed to have no end. The bronze mountain in front of them seemed to have no end. After flying upwards for nearly half an hour, the view changed and a huge 'bronze island' appeared in the sky.
This is the body of the bronze tripod.
After the two centipedes flew to the top, they saw that the ground had turned into brown soil. In the middle was a dense red bamboo forest. White smoke was rising from the top of the bamboo forest. The fragrance that Chen Luo and the flower-backed turtle smelled below was coming from these "bamboos".
"What did you see?"
The flower-backed turtle sat next to Chen Luo, looking at him eagerly.
In this place, the range of divine sense is very limited, and he doesn't have a strange insect like the silver-winged centipede, so he can only rely on Chen Luo. He also wants to know what is so special about the "lifeless people" and why their life turtles can't calculate the "life" of these people.
Chen Luo ignored the Fate Turtle.
After shuttling through the bamboo forest, the two strange insects returned to the edge. This was not a bamboo forest, but bamboo incense used for sacrifice. It was just because it was so huge that it felt like a bamboo forest. He controlled the silver-winged centipede to fly to the edge of the bronze tripod and looked down from this angle.
There is icy fog below.
The scene that can be seen is limited, and one can only see the endless sea of ice, but the Silver-Winged Centipede has special perception in extremely cold areas, allowing Chen Luo to see some outlines.
In front of where the two of them were resting, there was an ice palace.
This ice palace is called 'Floating World Palace'.
The door of the Floating World Palace was half open, and there were several powerful auras inside, as if someone was moving around inside.
"in front of!"
After finding traces of other people's activities, Chen Luo quickly stood up and walked forward.
Apart from the snow and the low temperature, there were no other dangers along the way. Gradually, even the flower-backed tortoise felt the cold, and a thick layer of frost condensed on its shell. Chen Luo's clothes also had some ice armor on them, and a layer of white frost floated on his hair.
With their Nascent Soul bodies, they were no longer able to completely isolate themselves from the cold air around them.
Soon, the two arrived at the gate of the Floating World Palace.
There were three steps at the entrance, and these three steps were like three natural moats, with no way to get past them. The wind and snow around them became even stronger, and a large number of ice worms were mixed in the cold ice and snow. These ice worms were mixed in the cold wind like iron wires, so dense that you couldn't notice them unless you looked carefully.
Bang bang!
The flower-backed turtle curled itself up inside its shell, sensing the muffled noise coming from outside and clearly felt that something was wrong.
“It’s the ice nematode.”
Although the ice nematodes were not rare insects, and their attack level was not high, only at the foundation-building level, they were numerous. No one knew how many ice nematodes were hidden in the snow and ice. In this case, it was absolutely the stupidest thing to do to fight with the ice nematodes.
'Silver-winged centipede, feeds on ice nematodes.'
The insect cultivators' brains quickly became active. These brains, which had the lowest presence among the external brains, became extremely active at this moment. For them, places with many insects were their home grounds and their favorite "feng shui treasure land".
call out!
Two cold lights flashed by.
Two silver-winged centipedes appeared on Chen Luo's shoulders, one on the left and one on the right. The ice nematodes flying in the air sensed the breath of the silver-winged centipedes and circled away, none of them dared to approach. This also made Chen Luo's surroundings free of any attacks. From a distance, it looked like ice and snow were taking detours, which was very strange.
The flower-backed turtle, who originally thought that it would need some means to deal with this disaster, opened its eyes wide after seeing this scene, and when it looked at the silver-winged centipede on Chen Luo's shoulder, it couldn't help but show envy.
This is a strange insect!
This person actually has two of the things that insect cultivators dream of!
The Flower-backed Turtle didn't know that Chen Luo still had the Soul-Parking Gu and the Life-Borrowing Gu, two top-ranked insects on the Insect List. The 'Silver-Winged Centipede' that he envied was usually used to gather dust in Chen Luo's hands, and was spied on by the other two insects every now and then.
After climbing three steps, Chen Luo and the flower-backed turtle stepped over the threshold of the Floating World Palace.
The interior of the fairy palace is not a room, but an empty corridor, a long and narrow passage, with sealed white jade walls on both sides. There are pale white lights above, which are oil lamps on the wall.
"Can you calculate the location of that ascender?"
Chen Luo did not rush forward, but said something to the old turtle beside him.
No one responded.
Chen Luo's heart trembled, and he quickly looked behind him. The flower-backed turtle that had been following him before had mysteriously disappeared after entering the gate of the fairy palace. There was no trace of the whole process, and even Chen Luo's external brain did not react.
The other side.
The flower-backed turtle looked blankly at the corridor in front of it. The cold air blew and the whole turtle couldn't help but shiver.
'Where is the big brother who led the way?'
After walking along the corridor for a while, Chen Luo saw a painting in front of him. The painting hung on the smooth wall and looked particularly abrupt.
The painting is snow-white, and the scrolls at both ends are made of white jade, emitting a silvery-white glow. The painting is plain white, with only faint traces on it, as if someone had painted a blank painting with water.
"Heart Demon Painting?"
When Chen Luo first met Wuwei Zhenren, he saw many similar scrolls. He also helped Wuwei Zhenren deliver a painting, so that now when he sees something similar, he can immediately remember the corresponding content.
This inexplicable sense of familiarity made Chen Luo's eyes fluctuate.
Buzz!
When his palm touched the screen, the Heart Demon Art in his body started to work automatically. This feeling was like a natural fit. Even though Chen Luo's Heart Demon Art had been modified many times by Brother Changqing, the essence of the Heart Demon Art still existed.
The painting in front of you corresponds to the essence of the 'Heart Devil Technique'. (End of this chapter)
