The giant tiger was unaware of the threat posed by the thin arrows, and hesitated for a moment before launching a counterattack.
But in the next instant, the giant tiger's indestructible defensive shield suddenly emitted a series of fine "crackling" sounds, and spiderweb-like patterns covered the shield before it shattered and dissipated.
"Good girl! Roar—"
The giant tiger let out a shout, roared, and stomped its foot. Snowflakes began to fall in the arena. Liu Yunqing and his companion, who were fighting, felt a chill on their bodies and were frozen to a freezing temperature at an extremely fast speed.
There's something wrong with this snow!
Xue certainly had a problem. A cunning glint flashed in the giant tiger's eyes, along with a hint of smugness. He stared at Liu Yunqing with great interest, waiting for them to beg for mercy.
Soon, Liu Yunqing and his companion discovered that the snow not only had a problem, but a much bigger one.
At first, it was just extremely cold. As time went on, while the two were fending off the deadly attacks mixed in with the swirling snowflakes, they were occasionally cut by the sharp, blade-like snowflakes. They discovered that their entire bodies began to freeze, centered on the wounds.
Liu Yunqing was alright, since nothing could freeze the fire on her body, but it was different for Master Mingxin.
Sword cultivators have the greatest advantage in challenging opponents of higher levels, possessing extremely high explosive power. However, they are not as advantageous as ordinary cultivators against attacks of this type.
Liu Yunqing watched with a leisurely air, occasionally waving the giant tiger's paws. With a wave of his right hand, a thin but very durable red protective shield was created, encasing Mingxin Zhenren inside.
Then, he made a hand seal and disappeared in front of the giant tiger in the next instant.
The tiger's leisurely demeanor vanished. It stopped waving its claws, pricked up its ears, and became wary, though its eyes still held a lingering question about Liu Yunqing's sudden disappearance.
However, being a demon beast, the giant tiger didn't have that many tricks up its sleeve. Seeing that Liu Yunqing had disappeared, it turned its attention to Mingxin Zhenren.
Seeing that the other party was about to be frozen, but after being enveloped by the spiritual energy shield thrown by Liu Yunqing, their condition slowly improved.
Upon seeing this, the giant tiger raised its paw to strike Mingxin Zhenren.
Mingxin Zhenren, who had just appeared to have recovered slightly, suddenly opened his eyes the moment the tiger's claw struck down, and with a speed that was so fast it was dazzling, he unleashed a burst of sword light.
The sword light seemed different from before, making the giant tiger feel uncomfortable. The tiger claws that were originally attacking Mingxin Zhenren changed direction and swept towards the sword light.
As soon as the tiger's claw swept across, I knew something was wrong.
Despite the sword light not being particularly strong, when he swung his claw, not only did it not disperse, but the sword light actually followed his tiger claw and surrounded it.
Just as the giant tiger was troubled by the sword light, it suddenly sensed a human aura emanating from its back. Before it could turn around, it was met with a hail of arrows.
By the time the giant tiger had finally managed to completely quell the rain of arrows, Liu Yunqing had already grabbed a token in his hand.
The giant tiger let out a reluctant whimper, and in the next instant, its entire body began to shrink, eventually transforming into a spirit cat. It meowed twice at the two of them before disappearing.
At the same time, the snowy scene disappeared, and two palm-sized white jade wine pots appeared out of thin air in the air in front of the two.
The two men exchanged a glance, then reached out their hands toward the white jade wine pots, and the two wine pots fell into their respective hands.
After the two men took the wine jug, a passage appeared beneath their feet, winding forward.
Before Liu Yunqing even stepped into the passage, she could smell a fresh fragrance from the breeze blowing along it.
As soon as they stepped onto the passage, before they could even take a step, as if the distance had shrunk to an inch, the two of them appeared in front of a semi-circular archway.
The archway was wide open, and looking up, one could see the vast, clear lake shrouded in a misty haze inside.
After stepping through the archway, the archway behind them closed automatically, and the scene before them changed slightly.
Previously, the lake appeared to be nothing but clear water, but now, upon closer inspection, it is clear that there are other people on the lake.
Liu Yunqing, on a boat that had just entered the lake, saw Liu Yunzhao.
Similarly, at the same time Liu Yunqing saw Liu Yunzhao, Liu Yunzhao seemed to also notice Liu Yunqing's gaze, and the two looked up and their eyes met directly.
Faced with Liu Yunqing's probing gaze, Liu Yunzhao seemed unmoved, merely nodding and raising the corner of his mouth before shifting his gaze. He then gently patted the water with his spiritual energy, and the small boat sailed into the lake.
The lake surface rippled, and Liu Yunzhao's small boat disappeared from their sight. However, looking at the lake, there was indeed an extra boat compared to before, but they couldn't confirm which one belonged to Liu Yunzhao.
"Let's go. Even if we're facing enemies, we don't need to think about everything, or we'll miss our chance."
"When it's time to end it, she'll naturally clean her neck and offer her head to you herself."
"Mortals say it's never too late to take revenge, even after ten years. What does it matter if it's a thousand or a hundred years for us cultivators? Maximizing our own benefit is the most correct choice."
Liu Yunqing didn't know whether Mingxin Zhenren's words came from her own insights or from something she had seen, but she agreed with what he said.
Seeing that Master Mingxin had already stepped onto the small boat, Liu Yunqing followed suit and boarded his own small boat.
Before entering the small boat, Liu Yunqing was still thinking that he should put aside the strange things about Liu Yunzhao and not waste this Reincarnation Wine.
But as soon as he stepped onto the small boat, Liu Yunqing didn't remember Liu Yunzhao at all.
To be precise, after boarding the small boat, not only did he not remember Liu Yunzhao, but everyone else did not remember him either.
Or rather, it's not that I don't remember, but rather that I simply can't recall anyone or anything other than this small boat.
Including myself.
Liu Yunqing knew she was herself, but she was only herself. Without Liu Yunqing, without Liu Zhenru, she was simply herself, merely existing.
As for what her existence is and what her purpose is, it seems that these are not things that need to be thought about. She only needs to exist to feel comfortable and happy, and the world is lovely.
At this moment, Liu Yunqing sat cross-legged on the boat like a statue, her eyes red as flames, but the hint of a smile in her eyes, the slightly upturned corners of her lips, and her relaxed eyebrows showed her pleasant mood.
In front of Liu Yunqing, who was sitting cross-legged, on a simple square table, sat a small white jade wine pot about the size of a palm.
At this moment, wisps of smoke drifted from the spout of the white jade wine pot, aiming directly at Liu Yunqing's face before being inhaled into his body.
This scene was almost identical on all the small boats carrying those who were passing through.
When no more wisps of smoke rose from the white jade wine pot, the scenery on each boat began to change.
Some are in pain, some are in joy, some want to break free but cannot; in short, the complex emotions of mortals are unfolding one by one.
Only the small boat where Liu Yunqing was remained unchanged.
"Huh? Is this guy a drunkard?"
Seeing that Liu Yunqing not only did not react, but even showed signs of waking up, a curious voice came.
Along with this, the white jade wine pot gently shook and began to rise again in wisps of smoke.
