Knowing they had found the right place, both Lu Li and Shu Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
Shushu was even more amazed: It was definitely the right decision to follow Wen Jianxi, otherwise, if they had searched aimlessly on their own, who knows how long it would have taken.
Although they were treating Wen Jianxi as a tool, neither the human nor the rat felt guilty. On the contrary, they were quite happy. When Wen Jianxi was unlucky, they were happy, extremely happy.
Meanwhile, the shield fire spirit, seeing that the crisis was over, also shrank and turned into a small flame. It originally wanted to attach itself to Lu Li's shoulder, but saw Shushu peeking out from inside his clothes.
After thinking about it, I realized that my shoulder was a bit too close to the little mouse. If I accidentally burned its fur again, it would definitely cry very loudly.
Even your own master, who always sides with outsiders, will definitely criticize you.
Thinking of this, the little fire spirit simply flew to the top of Lu Li's head and stopped on his jade crown, far away from Shushu.
It was fortunate that Lu Li's jade crown was made of a special material, otherwise it would have been melted by the fire spirit, or he would have been left with disheveled hair on the spot.
Of course, with Lu Li's looks, even with her hair down, she would still look absolutely stunning; it's just that her wildly flying hair might get in the way.
Lu Li naturally noticed the little fire spirit's actions. Seeing that it didn't want to go back and had put on its jade crown, he didn't pay any attention and let it stay on his head.
Finally, to avoid any unforeseen complications, Lu Li made contact with the puppets outside before setting off again.
After confirming that Wen Jianxi was still trapped in the illusion and had not yet broken free, he felt relieved and continued on his way with Shushu.
Soon, the group left the narrow pass and headed towards the distant snowfield.
The journey was extremely peaceful. Apart from the snow-covered landscape, we didn't encounter any spirit beasts or plants, as if there were no living beings here.
As they ventured deeper into the cave, the temperature around them dropped further and further, as if they were gradually approaching an ice cave.
Later on, even the spiritual energy shield became useless, and the cold wind could penetrate the spiritual energy layer and the defense of the magic robe, going straight to the bone.
The sweet potato shivered violently from the cold, which startled Lu Li, causing him to stop in his tracks.
Then Lu Li remembered something, and after rummaging through his storage ring for a while, he found a blanket woven from the silk of the Fire Jade Silkworm that he had collected before.
Without saying a word, the sweet potato was wrapped up tightly except for its tiny, round eyes, which were sticking out, just like a rice dumpling.
The yam has also grown from a small yam to a medium yam, a whole size bigger.
After making sure she was completely wrapped up, Lu Li added a spiritual energy shield and tucked her back into his clothes before continuing on his way.
It can only be said that the Fire Jade Silkworm truly lives up to its reputation as a fire-attribute spirit beast; even the cloth woven from its silk is warm and can automatically insulate against the cold.
Not long after it was wrapped up, the chilling cold gradually subsided, and the little yam's body began to warm up.
Even the furry face and small body, which felt like they were about to freeze, gradually relaxed in the warm embrace and were no longer tense.
Immediately afterwards, feeling as if it had come back to life, the little sorghum began to quietly peek out a little to see the snowy world outside.
The scenery before him was much the same as before. After looking at it for a while, Shushu lost interest and his consciousness began to wander aimlessly, from the snow-capped mountains to the flying sword, and then to Lu Li.
Upon seeing Lu Li, Shushu noticed that Lu Li was still dressed the same as before. The next moment, Shushu turned into a jealous person: It's good to have high cultivation level. He's not afraid of the cold at all. I'm so envious!
So, the more she thought about it, the more envious Shushu felt, and she felt like the air itself was sour! Her little face scrunched up.
Lu Li had been keeping an eye on her since the millet and potato activity started. He saw her first scan him with her divine sense, then become dejected, and finally furrow her brows.
Lu Li, who guessed what she might be thinking, found it all quite amusing.
However, since she was his beloved junior sister, Lu Li couldn't bear to see her continue to be melancholy, so he took out a milk fruit from his storage ring and handed it to her: "Junior sister, have a milk fruit."
Actually, he learned that after leaving the secret realm, he had heard that his junior sister liked this milk fruit, so he specially used a drop of golden dragon blood that he had collected before to exchange for it with Ling Jun.
The milk fruit tree was planted in his own internal space, so he had a lot of milk fruit.
Shushu never expected that her senior brother would come to coax her just because she had been a little sour.
Looking at the milk fruit in front of him, Shushu instantly lost all his worries and envy. He quickly took it with both hands and happily drank it, not forgetting to thank him: "Thank you, Senior Brother."
Seeing that she was finally no longer sad, Lu Li smiled and prepared to continue on his way.
"when!"
Unexpectedly, the flying sword carrying them seemed to have crashed into something, creating ripples and making a loud, ear-piercing clang.
Lu Li, on the flying sword, was propelled forward by inertia, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and regained his balance almost instantly.
Seeing the ripples appear and disappear, he guessed what was going on. He slowly reached out and touched a barrier, which was clearly a protective enclosure.
Lu Li, who placed his hand on the barrier, could even feel the even denser chill on the other side of the barrier, but its power was greatly reduced because it was blocked by the barrier.
After checking with Shushu and confirming that the barrier was just ahead, Lu Li thought for a moment, then retreated a certain distance on his flying sword before suddenly launching an attack on the barrier.
Unfortunately, his attack only created ripples on the surface of the barrier, without breaking through it at all.
This barrier was clearly more powerful than he had imagined.
Just as Lu Li was pondering what method he could use to open the barrier, the little fire spirit coiled on the jade crown above his head began to move.
In a flash, it detached itself from Lu Li's jade crown and rushed towards the barrier, growing larger as it went.
By the time it reached the barrier, it had transformed from a small flame into a large fireball.
Then, the fireball, carrying extremely high temperatures, crashed into the barrier with a whoosh, making a crackling sound.
The barrier, which had remained unchanged under Lu Li's attacks, was suddenly burned with a hole by the little fire spirit, and it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.
Upon seeing this, Lu Li immediately went to the Fire Spirit's side and watched as the little Fire Spirit burned the cave entrance bigger and bigger.
When the opening was large enough for one person to pass through, Lu Li quickly squeezed inside.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he saw a snowflake rushing towards him from afar, carrying extreme cold as it hurtled toward his door.
It's Xue Ling.
Lu Li recognized the newcomer at a glance. The next moment, almost without any hesitation, he took a step to the side, revealing the little fire spirit that had just crawled in behind him.
Since they're both spirits, let these two little guys fight it out first.
