Chapter 397 Secret Snow Ice City
Flying all over the sky, a desolate place.
This is what this world of ice and snow looks like.
Looking around, there is not a trace of green, or rather, there is no other color at all, it is all silver white.
The tall snow beast was running on all fours in the strong wind. It looked like an enlarged polar bear. Due to its huge size, its movements looked a bit stupid, but it was actually not slow.
Li Chu and the other two also sat on the snow beast's back and found it quite stable.
In front of me was a snowman of similar height to an average person, with a round head, angular face, big eyes, and facial features similar to those of a human. Its torso was also a large snowball, and its limbs were made of lotus-shaped snowballs. There was only one small snowball that formed a fist, and it had no fingers.
Looks like...
It's quite cute.
"My name is Nunu, and I'm the most handsome snowman in the tribe." It introduced itself with a thumbs up, and then asked: "Strangers, are you here to help us defeat the snow monster?"
"Um……"
The three cultivators looked at each other and then answered, "Maybe."
"Haha, I knew it." Nunu laughed, "There's a ancestral precept that has been passed down in our tribe. Whether it's a snowman or a snow demon, if you want to defeat the other side, you must rely on the help of outsiders."
The three of them finally understood why it was so enthusiastic.
During the rest of the journey, the snowman Nunu continued to enthusiastically tell them about the general situation of the world.
Ice and snow are the eternal themes here.
The snow and wind in the sky will never stop, and the white covering the earth will never fade away.
There are three races living on this land.
Snow beasts are numerous, but have low intelligence and can only live in the wild or be domesticated.
There are fewer people but they are the smartest and they built a huge tribe of snowmen.
They are the smallest in number and are a race that has evolved from snow beasts. They strengthen themselves by hunting snowmen or snow beasts and are called snow demons.
Apart from the neutral snow beasts, snow demons and snowmen are the two races that are always in opposition on this land.
"Those snow monsters are so abominable. Since you are the outsiders according to our ancestral teachings, you must help us teach them a lesson!" Nunu waved his fist angrily.
"etc……"
Zang Yunzi waved his hands to calm it down, then said, "We can indeed help you defeat the Snow Demon, but..."
He smiled.
"I understand what you mean." Nunu also smiled and said, "The elders have long said that there is no free ice in the world. Since I have asked you to help in the battle, I will certainly not let you pay for it in vain."
Then, it continued, "For example, our tribe has the best ice sculpture master in the world. He can make an ice sculpture for each of you that will never melt! To commemorate the great hero!"
"..." Zang Yunzi rolled his eyes, "Who would want something like that..."
But at the same time, Qing Shuijian raised his eyes and asked expectantly, "Really?"
"Hey, you don't really want it, do you..." Zang Yunzi pushed him away.
Qingshui Jiandao: "Why not? The ice sculpture that will never melt is something that cannot be found outside the secret realm. When the time comes, I will place it in front of the gate of our Qing family..."
He was daydreaming over there, and Zang Yunzi suddenly didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Li Chu asked directly: "Your entire world is all ice and snow? Is there no other landscape?"
"Other landscapes?" Nunu was startled. "What do you mean?"
"For example, lakes." Li Chu said.
“A lake…” Nunu touched his head and thought, “It is said that a long, long time ago, this world had many different landscapes, but then a dramatic change occurred between heaven and earth, and endless ice and snow fell, and it became what it is now.”
"Now if you want to find other scenery, you must climb the holy mountain and look for it in the fairyland." It said finally.
"Holy mountain?"
"wonderland?"
These two words again aroused the curiosity of several people.
"The Holy Mountain is the origin of life in this world. According to legend, the snowman was born on the top of the Holy Mountain, the snow beast was born halfway up the mountain, and the snow demon was born at the foot of the mountain. The snow demon has the least divinity, so it is extremely vicious and murderous."
The three of them had no interest in this little legend that discredited their opponents, but they had no choice but to listen patiently.
Nunu continued, "At the top of the holy mountain, there is a ladder that leads to the fairyland in the clouds. I have never been there, but I heard from the warriors in the tribe that in the fairyland in the clouds, there are red flowers and green grass, very lush plants and warm lakes. Everything is different from the ice and snow world."
"There..." Zang Yunzi nodded and said, "Maybe there is what we are looking for."
What they were looking for was the secret of this world, and the fairy water of Yaochi that might contain magical spiritual power. And the area around the fairy water could not be a barren land of ice and snow.
"Let's wait and see." Li Chu said calmly.
According to his past experience, he didn't need to focus too much on finding his target after entering the secret realm. As long as he explored step by step, what he wanted would most likely come to him.
"Hehe, we are about to reach the ice city built by our tribe. When the time comes, you can meet our elder and talk to him in detail." Nunu said.
These snowmen actually built a city, which surprised Li Chu and his friends.
The snow beast was running wildly forward, but suddenly, it paused, and with a hissing sound, it stopped violently, leaving four long traces of ice and snow on the ground with its four paws.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Zang Yunzi asked.
"Xiao Wei has a keen nose. He must have smelled the scent of the Snow Demon in the wind." Nunu pricked up his ears and looked around cautiously. "There is a Snow Demon lying in ambush. The road ahead may be very dangerous."
"The wind here is very strange. My spiritual sense can't reach very far before it is blown away." Qingshui Jian frowned.
Li Chu nodded, he also encountered the same problem.
Just like the bad TV signal on windy days, the range of his telepathy was greatly reduced.
Now only an area of about twenty miles can be seen.
Fortunately, although this range is small, it is still sufficient.
So he pointed to the hillside in front of him on the left, "There's a very powerful aura hidden behind that."
The breath was cold, gloomy, and a little loud.
Very different from the little snowman who is equally cold but full of vitality.
It should be the snow demon it mentioned.
"Xiao Wei, run!"
After hearing Li Chu's words, Nunu looked at him and chose to believe him. Then he commanded the snow beast to go around in another direction.
Qing Shui Jian asked, "Are you afraid of it?"
“Of course not!” Nunu puffed out his chest and then shrank his neck: “But the individual strength of the snow monster is slightly stronger than ours. If we encounter a snow monster alone in the wild, our chances of survival are very small.”
"With the three of us here, what are you afraid of?" Qingshui Jian smiled proudly, "If I encounter that snow monster, I will use all my swords to poke it into a honeycomb for you to see."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a sudden roar from the hillside over there.
“Ah——”
This roar was so loud that it felt like an earthquake. The running snow beast was so frightened that its four legs went limp and it almost fell to the ground. It stood up again quickly and ran forward even faster.
In the distance, the shadow of a huge monster gradually loomed.
It was a huge snow ape that was nearly ten feet in size. When it stood upright, it almost blocked out the sky. When it saw the snow beast change its course, it immediately chased after it! In comparison, the tall snow beast suddenly became small. Even if its four short legs struggled, it was not as big as the snow monster's stride! "Wow." Qingshui Jian's eyes were ablaze with fighting spirit, "This guy is quite big."
He looked around and said, "Zang Yunzi, Brother Li, you two take a break for a while. Let me take the lead!"
As he said this, he leaped up high and pointed with his right hand, "Ten Thousand Swords Technique... Ouch!"
puff.
Unexpectedly.
When he jumped up, he not only failed to take off, but also fell down quickly. The snow beast had already run forward, and there was nothing to catch it. The Qingshui Sword plunged into the snow without a head, leaving a large Chinese character.
In front of him, the snow ape that was about to catch up had already noticed him...
Zang Yunzi frowned and shouted, "Go!"
Countless dimly lit threads flew out from his sleeves, and flew over to entangle the lagging Qingshui sword, pulling him out of the snow pile.
But it can be seen that he used this magic weapon very reluctantly.
"What's going on..."
Qingshui Jian was pulled back onto the snow beast's back. His expression was a little strange, with a hint of confusion in his embarrassment.
"Just when I was about to perform the Wind Control Technique and the Ten Thousand Swords Technique, I felt... my Qi was gone."
"The wind here will blow away the true energy." Zang Yunzi said sternly: "If you use magic tools and flying swords, they cannot leave the body. You must hold them in your hands to activate them, so that you can barely maintain them."
"Ah?" Qing Shuijian said in surprise, "If the true qi cannot leave the body, won't we all become useless?"
Li Chu blinked and wanted to say something.
Before he could speak, the snowman Nunu shouted, "You are from the outside world and have not experienced the Ice and Snow Festival. You will not be loved by the Snow God. It seems that now, I am the only one who can protect you all!"
As it spoke, the footsteps of the huge snow monster came over with a rumble.
And in its eyes, the snow beast's running might look more like a death struggle.
"Okay, let's open our eyes and see how snowmen fight." Qingshui Jian shouted.
"Hey--"
Nunu held his breath, his eyes wide open, gathering his strength for a long time, and then shouted loudly: "Go!"
Its right arm swung open violently, and the snowball in its right hand, which formed a fist, was thrown out with a whoosh! It turned into an arc and hit the snow monster's... head high.
Pop.
After this attack, no one knew how the Snow Demon felt. Anyway, Li Chu and the other two felt...
That’s it?
Zang Yunzi murmured, "This tickling isn't strong enough..."
Qingshui Jian shouted, "Didn't you say that the individual strength of the Snow Demon is slightly stronger than yours? What do you mean by slightly stronger?"
Nunu snorted coldly: "What do you know? The strength of my move is that it can attack infinitely. If I keep doing it, I will be able to smash its skull sooner or later!"
"I'll screw you." Qing Shuijian looked back at the huge figure that had already approached and said, "I can already smell its foot odor..."
Even Zang Yunzi, who had been relatively calm, looked a little pale, "Damn, I'm not going to die here for no apparent reason, am I?"
"Give me tens of thousands more chances and I can defeat it." Nunu stretched out his hand downwards, and a snowball was sucked up from the ground and re-formed into his right fist, which looked quite magical.
Li Chu made a careful estimate and felt that it might not have time to launch tens of thousands more times.
"No... I'll do it."
He pressed Nunu's shoulder.
"Huh?" Nunu looked at him in surprise: "You..."
Li Chu didn't say anything more, but just quietly drew out his sword.
The strange wind here should have had some effect on his spiritual power. But... according to past experience, the quality of spiritual power is slightly higher than that of true energy, so it should not dissipate too completely.
Thinking of this, the Chunyang Sword was raised high.
Fall gently.
laugh--
Boom! The sword broke through the air, and the next second, a huge red sword energy column appeared out of thin air.
Long-lasting and vigorous!
Because he was worried about being cut, Li Chu used all his strength this time.
Indeed, as soon as he made the move, he felt a strong influence around him, which greatly weakened the power of the sword.
but……
The snow demon's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Because this sword energy column is much longer than it...
It had never seen such a mighty pillar in its life.
boom--
The next second, the upper body of the snow demon was completely engulfed by the column of sword energy. Before it could reveal itself, its lower body had already been evaporated by the strong heat wave.
Not only it, but even the snow beasts and snowmen behind it screamed.
"Ah—run! Xiaowei!" Nunu wailed.
Both of them were nearly evaporated on the spot by the rebounding heat wave.
A moment later.
The group has already moved away from the dangerous place.
But still quite silent.
In the end, Qingshui Jian was the first to recover from his shock. He looked at Li Chu rather dully, "Brother Li, I know you are very strong. But... being strong also requires following the basic laws, right? Why are you not affected by the laws here?"
"You can't say that..." Li Chu replied calmly: "Actually, I was also affected."
This is indeed the case. Now that he is level 80, a full-strength sword strike from him should definitely not have this much power.
Qingshui Jian blinked, and for a moment he couldn't tell what was real and what was fake.
The frightened snowman Nunu also turned around and looked at Li Chu and said, "Now I completely believe in our ancestors' teachings. With a powerful outsider like you to help us, we will definitely be able to defeat the snow monster."
As he was speaking, the snow beast suddenly roared.
It turned out that it climbed up a hillside, and after crossing the hillside, it saw a continuous ice wall in front of it, which turned out to be a huge ice city!
It stretched from east to west, with no end in sight, all the way to the distant white fog. From north to south, there were countless ice crystal roofs, and countless snowmen lived there. The streets were crisscrossed, and the scale was not inferior to any city of the outside world.
A city truly carved entirely out of ice and snow! It was much bigger than the three had imagined!
But it's no wonder, maybe only a city like this can stop the attack of such a giant beast? "Haha!"
Nunu smiled happily again.
"That's the city of our tribe. Isn't it awesome?" it said proudly.
"It's really amazing." Li Chu nodded sincerely, "What's its name?"
"This city is built with huge black ice, and the middle is glued together by the sticky secret snow produced at the foot of the snow mountain. It can fit tightly together and will not collapse even if attacked by many snow monsters." Nunu introduced: "This ice city built with secret snow is called..."
"Naixue City!"
