Chapter 245 Extreme Cold
Not long after, accompanied by a jolt, runes flickered all over the golden-patterned spirit boat, lifted into the sky by a piece of golden light, and galloped towards the depths of the frozen sea.
Han Li didn't go into the attic, but came to the bow of the spirit boat, standing alone with his hands behind his back, looking up, the clothes on his body were blowing in the wind, making a sound of hunting.
I saw a vast expanse of whiteness above the sea, with thick solid ice everywhere, and sometimes some black reefs covered with hoarfrost or huge icebergs sporadically protruded from the sea.
In the sea area far away, misty waves and mist filled the air, and the vision became very blurred.
Flying birds are rarely seen over the entire sea area. Both the sea and the sky are very quiet, giving people an illusion of emptiness and loneliness, as if life is frozen in this frozen world, and there are not many living things.
In fact, through his spiritual sense, Han Li could perceive that there were many monsters with powerful aura hidden in the higher clouds in the sky, in the depths of the seabed, and even in some icebergs. The three of them had strong auras, so they didn't make any mistakes.
Reminiscent of the sea of thunderstorms before, Han Li couldn't help sighing in admiration at the very different geographical environment of the Northern Cold Immortal Territory.
After all, neither the previous human world nor the spiritual world seemed to have such scenes. I believe that in places I have never been to, there are still many scenes that I have never seen or even imagined.
As soon as he thought about this, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the short but warm time when he and Nangong Wan lived together before they secretly ascended to the spirit world.
This memory has been sealed in the depths of his heart by him, a place he does not want to touch.
This is also the reason why he has been alone most of the time since he embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, and he does not want to easily get involved in emotional matters.
After all, life and death with relatives, even for him today, is something he doesn't want to face directly.
"If Wan'er can be by my side, from now on, I will be able to enjoy the wonders of the northern cold, and I will be at ease."
"Now I don't know what's going on with Wan'er. The resources left to her back then should be enough for her to cultivate to the Mahayana stage."
"I don't know if there will be a reunion in this life..."
Han Li muttered to himself in a daze, then turned around silently, walked into the attic on the first floor, and closed the door.
...
About half a year later.
In the southern part of the Frozen Sea, on a vast sea area filled with mist, there is a white island with a radius of less than a thousand feet floating.
The body of the island is round and clear, and it looks like a huge white porcelain plate. It is obviously not created by nature, but artificially developed.
On the island, there are tall and low white stone pillars standing everywhere, some of which are engraved with Taoist runes, and some are inlaid with pieces of spiritual stones full of spiritual power.
The entire island looks like a huge white magic circle.
At this moment, over the sea area near the island, a golden spirit boat flew over from a distance, hovered in midair for a moment, and suddenly disappeared in a flash of golden light.
In the sky, three figures flew down and landed towards the island.
These three people were none other than Han Li and the others who came all the way to Yanling Island, but at this time, they didn't hide their cultivation aura too much, but their appearance and figure had changed greatly.
Lin Jiu transformed into a burly man with a bearded face, Lin Shiqi transformed into a refined literati in a green shirt and high crown, and Han Li transformed into a fair-skinned young man with a weak crown.
The three of them landed on a small square at the edge of the island, saw a white stone hall in front of them, and walked towards the hall together.
The furnishings in the hall are extremely simple, there is only a round stone platform in the hall, on which sits cross-legged an old man with white beard.
Han Li glanced over, and was a little surprised to find that this person was a cultivator at the beginning of the True Immortal Realm, and the clothes on his body were actually the style of the elders of the inner sect of the Candle Dragon Dao.
"Everyone is here, but you are going to the Netherfrost Continent?" the white-bearded old man glanced at the three of them, and asked without getting up.
"Exactly." Lin Jiu, who turned into a burly man, said unhurriedly.
"Each person has seven immortal essence stones." The old man said expressionlessly.
After the three paid their fees, the white-bearded old man straightened up, walked down from the round stone platform, and led the three of them out through a stone gate at the back of the main hall.
After leaving the main hall, the three of them followed the white-bearded old man along a road about Zhang Xu wide, towards the center of the island.
Han Li looked down at the road under his feet, and found that the road was a few inches lower than the ground on both sides. It looked like a groove embedded in the ground, and a group of runes were engraved in it every few feet.
The closer you get to the center of the island, the denser the roads are, criss-crossing each other, which is extremely complicated, and seems a bit weird and mysterious.
"Friend Linjiu, if I'm not mistaken, this old man is wearing the clothes of a Candle Dragon Dao monk?" Han Li looked at the back of the old man in front of him, and asked through voice transmission.
"That's right. This person should be an inner sect elder of Zhulong Dao." Lin Jiu replied.
"Could it be that the teleportation formations between the Ancient Cloud Continent and the Nether Cold Continent were all built by Torch Dragon Dao?" Han Li asked with some doubts.
"That's not true. Yanling Island is the only large teleportation formation established and controlled by Zhulongdao, while the teleportation formation on Ice Island near Netherland Continent is in the hands of Beihan Immortal Palace." Lin Jiuhui road.
"I see. Thank you for your guidance." Han Li said via voice transmission.
While the two were talking, they followed the white-bearded old man to a flat ground near the center of the island.
Han Li swept his eyes and saw from a distance that there was a circular magic circle surrounded by dozens of stone pillars in the open space in front of him. Each pillar was surrounded by at least seven or eight people, which looked magnificent.
There were seven or eight people in the square outside the circle, some standing with their hands behind their backs, some sitting cross-legged, waiting there.
"Elder Fu, these three people are also going to Bingji Island. There are enough people to activate the magic circle." The white-bearded old man led the three people to the square, and said to another person in the square who was also wearing a candle dragon. The middle-aged man in elder clothes said.
"You can enter the magic circle now." The middle-aged man nodded, turned and said to those people.
Those people had been waiting for a long time, and when they heard this, they immediately showed joy and walked into the teleportation array one after another.
Seeing this, the three of Han Li immediately followed in.
After all ten people stood still, the white-bearded old man nodded to the middle-aged man, and the two went to a round stone platform on both sides of the circle, and sat down cross-legged.
Accompanied by the sound of chanting, the white stone pillars around the formation lit up one after another, and the spirit stones inlaid on them and the engraved patterns all emitted a dazzling light.
Soon, the light spread, and even the roads on the ground lit up one after another, and other stone pillars standing all over the island also lit up brilliantly, and the entire island formation was in operation.
"buzz buzz"
There was a buzzing sound, and the entire white island trembled violently.
Standing in the formation, Han Li looked up at the sky, and saw that the clouds in the sky were crazily surging, gradually forming a huge unfathomable hole, from which bursts of palpitating space fluctuations came out.
The fog surrounding the island was also affected by this force, and retreated towards the surroundings of the island, accumulating into a ring-shaped high wall of fog.
At this moment, there was a loud "boom".
The whole island was shaken suddenly, and a multicolored radiance came out from the magic circle in the center of the island, turning into a huge beam of colorful light, soaring straight into the sky.
The figures of Han Li and the others were engulfed by the colored light and disappeared instantly.
After a while, the big formation gradually stopped, but the clouds disturbed by the big formation in the high sky and the surrounding fog wall did not disperse for a long time.
...
In the northern part of the frozen sea, leaden clouds hang low in the sky, and the wind howls.
The sky was covered with flying snow, covering the entire sea area.
On the surface of some dark seas, the frozen sea water and blizzard, under the gust of wind, formed huge ice cones over a hundred feet high, slanting towards the sky, densely covered like a forest.
In this forest of ice cones, stands an oval-shaped island shrouded in a cyan light curtain.
At this moment, there was a muffled rolling sound of thunder in the sky, and the entire oval island was shaken, and a colorful light lit up. On a magic circle in the middle of the island, more than ten figures appeared impressively.
They were none other than Han Li and the others who had been teleported here from Yanling Island.
At this time, due to the influence of the ultra-long-distance teleportation, the faces of all the people looked a little pale. Among them, those with weaker cultivation bases even felt that their spirits were a little shaken and unstable.
Han Li just felt a tightness in his chest, but nothing else.
He glanced around, and saw that the surrounding environment was similar to that of Yanling Island, with the same arrangement of magic circles, except that the original white stone pillars were all replaced by crystal icicles.
"Since the teleportation has been completed, if you don't leave quickly, when will you wait?"
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the formation.
Han Li moved his eyes and saw a skinny old woman wearing a white cloak and loose white hair standing there, holding a white horned dragon stick in her hand, staring at everyone with indifference.
Everyone quickly walked down from the center of the circle, and under the guidance of the old woman, they rushed towards the northern edge of the island.
There, stood a white ice crystal hall, inside which was placed a large desk, and sitting behind it was an old man with a kind face and a round face.
Compared to the indifferent face of the old woman, the old man's face was full of smiles.
"Welcome everyone to Netherland, but before leaving Ice Island, please pay three more immortal essence stones per person." The old man spread his palms and said with a smile.
Han Li was startled when he heard the words, and turned his head to cast a questioning look at Lin Jiu.
Seeing this, Lin Jiu nodded and explained:
"This is the practice of Candle Dragon Dao and Beihan Immortal Palace, and it will be the same when we go back to Yanling Island."
Han Li nodded silently, but he couldn't help but feel a little speechless in his heart.
Ten immortal essence stones are needed for a one-way trip, which means twenty round trips. I've traveled a long distance in the Impermanence League to do a task of not low level, I'm afraid it's not worth the travel expenses for this round trip.
If it weren't for the high rewards of this mission, this expense is nothing, otherwise, with his own means, he would never have paid the travel expenses so easily.
After everyone handed over the immortal essence stone, they came to the gate on the other side of the main hall.
The round-faced old man didn't get up either, but raised his palm towards the gate of the palace, and wiped the void.
There was a flash of blue light at the gate of the palace, and the light curtain shrouded in the outside immediately opened a circular passage with a height of one person.
"I wish all fellow Taoists a smooth journey." The old man said with a smile.
When Lin Jiu heard the sound, he stepped out of the hall door first, and came to the square outside the main hall. Han Li and the two followed closely behind and stepped out.
After the three, the other seven people who came here also came out one after another.
As soon as Fang stepped out of the hall, the sky was covered with flying snow immediately, accompanied by a chilling force of extreme cold. Even though Han Li had been prepared for this, he still couldn't help but frowned. I frowned.
Looking at the white world in front of him, his thoughts could not help but drift back to the scene when Feisheng first arrived in the Northern Cold Immortal Territory. At that time, he also stepped into the wind and snow like this. It was just the power of extreme cold in his memory. Even better.
At that time, I was full of longing, and the feeling of stepping into the immortal journey for the first time is still fresh in my memory, but I still can't recall the various encounters after that.
This fairyland is bleak and dangerous, and I don't know when I will be able to use my real name to show others openly.
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists hanging on both sides.
