Chapter 1009: Wudi Lake
The southern shore of the Five Emperors Lake is still frozen for thousands of miles. The breathtaking ice blue reflects the cold and lonely light of awakening. Under the dead silence, only the wandering mirror demons either float or sway, and they turn lazily and stare at the man who suddenly came uninvited in front of them.
Xiao Qianye took a deep breath, and as soon as he stepped on the ice, he felt the extreme coldness sweeping across his body in an instant. The sealing power from Fengtian Spring was like an invisible hand tearing the air, but in a moment his muscles couldn't help but tense. The Five Emperors Lake was originally the forbidden area, located in a deep valley. Before it was broken, the three rivers of the empty holy land fell from the sky like a Milky Way waterfall, and finally gathered into a lake in this thousand-foot-deep valley. However, after the breakage, the three rivers dried up to varying degrees and even dried up for a while. In addition, the displacement of mountains and rivers caused the river to be diverted. Now there is no original grand scene here, only a piece of ice, which coldly records that horrific past.
When his body adapted to the environment, Xiao Qianye continued to move forward. The sword spirit on this trip was broken, the wind and snow were lost, and Gu Chen was still in the hands of Di Zhong. He must be careful and try not to conflict with the wandering mirror demon.
Thinking of Di Zhong, Xiao Qianye paused in confusion. As soon as he lowered his head, he saw his shadow reflected on the ice. Apart from the shining golden and silver eyes, his thin face and pale skin all reminded him that his body was in an extremely bad state. If it weren't for Di Zhong's help, he might have wanted to waste several days in the Five Emperors Lake. Since the Emperor's Separation, Di Zhong has disappeared and has not taken action to participate in the battle between the Mechanical Phoenix Bird and the Xinmo tribe. The limit of separation between the Divine Strike Technique and him is one month, and it will take another month to recover after returning. Calculate that time should be sufficient.
Why did he suddenly come back? Not only that, he also traveled back and forth between Snow City and the East Coast overnight to help him solve the steep mechanical phoenix.
Xiao Qianye held his forehead, which was in pain, and a trace of indescribable complex emotions surged in his heart. Just when he wanted to completely throw away those things and went to find Yu Linglong first, a mirror demon broke into his sight without warning and stopped in front of him. Xiao Qianye frowned, subconsciously wanted to draw the sword and found that he was not carrying any weapons. He and the mirror demon looked at each other silently for a few seconds, and they didn't want to take the initiative to attack each other until the other laughed, and the mirror body reflected his tired face. Xiao Qianye was a little stunned, his mind swayed slightly, and the hand that held his forehead couldn't help but touched the eyebrows.
That spell... the spell that can transfer pain. Di Zhong said that once it exceeds the limit that can be borne, the magic circle will sense the other party's situation and open it on its own initiative. He came back specially for Yun Xiao.
For a moment, a feeling of heartache made him cough violently. Xiao Qianye waved his hand in annoyedly to drive away the mirror demon in front of him, and continued to go deeper towards the south bank of the Five Emperors Lake in the direction pointed by Zhengrong.
There are crisscrossing cracks on the south bank, which are caused by the influence of Fengtian Spring at close range, causing the land to be torn apart. Yu Linglong is a fairy grass that looks like jade. It usually grows near the wet rocks on the shore of the lake. It requires the lake elves to irrigate them with the water of the special spiritual power of the Five Emperors Lake for many years to mature. Now everything is quiet here, and the ice has kept all creatures as they were in the past and frozen. If he is lucky, he should be able to find several plants. The key is whether this special ice can be broken and how to break it. He has never tried it.
The mirror demon gathered over and followed him not far or near. The deeper he went, the more the cold air in his heart rose up layer by layer. Even his special ancient physique, which was frozen, was stiffened by his hands and feet. Soon he saw the birds and beasts in the frozen stock that had no time to escape. Just a glance, Xiao Qianye quickly moved his eyes away. There seemed to be a malicious laughter from the mirror demon, but when he calmed down and listened carefully, he found that the sound was directly transmitted into his heart. He slowed down alertly and saw that the mirror demon changed into various postures with the sound, and his body began to show many unforgettable pasts.
Even though he had noticed something was wrong, the illusion of consciousness being pulled into the mirror demon was still in an instant. A dazzling light appeared on the blue ice surface, which stimulated his eyes to fall into a brief blindness. After Xiao Qianye opened his eyes again, a nightmare-like face appeared in everything that could reach the sight, densely covered the sky. He gasped for a breath of coldness and heard a sound that had not been heard for a long time penetrated through his eardrums. It was a sarcasm issued by the Night King under Yongfeng: "I have been missing for many years, Lord Xiao."
"Neon King..." Xiao Qianye blurted in a low voice. After so many years, he still felt uncomfortable when he saw the Night King again.
"Haha, you dare to come back, and even dare to go deeper into the seal. It's really awesome and admirable." The Ye King's tone was playful. His face floated in the ice, jumping on the body of the mirror demon, sometimes twisting and sometimes stretching, making Xiao Qianye's vision dizzy. Shu Shaobai once said that although he could not interfere with everything outside after being trapped in the array eye, he had to bear the shattering force that surged from all directions, so the array eye could clearly feel what was happening on the continent above!
"Yu Linglong." King Ye sneered and said these three words. Sure enough, he saw his whole body tightening and staring at the face on the ice with a stern look. King Ye whispered the Mirror Demon's mouth and let the voice come from the surroundings like a rising tide. "You can't even think of Yu Linglong. If that slutty woman hadn't deceived Di Zhong with sweet words and moved to her, he wouldn't have turned his back on heaven and helped an isolated island falling into the sky and the sea! Haha, did Di Zhong regret it? He helped outsiders to deal with me, and he didn't get her heart."
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene on the body of the mirror demon changed in an instant. The outline of Tianzheng Mansion appeared clearly. Di Zhong occupied his body and consciousness. He was supported by Ye Zhuofan from Chunxuan's celebration banquet. A blanket was spread on the ground in the backyard. A group of people were happily celebrating Bai Xiaocha's birthday. Seeing the two of them coming over, he quickly greeted him and sat in a warm manner. He participated without saying a word until the drunk Yun Xiao collapsed against him, lying down on his knees. He gently stroked the rosy face, lowered his head and kissed it on his forehead.
The powerful family like them, under the feet of the emperor, was restricted by etiquette and rules all year round, and the unconcealed love show immediately caused noisy. Just as everyone wanted to take advantage of the situation to make a fuss, a beam of golden light shrouded, and the mirror of the moon spread silently, solidifying the entire backyard.
He picked up Yun Xiao, who was unconscious, and returned to the room. His reason was quickly collapsed, like an out-of-control beast, holding the frightened bird under him tightly. The small sword of flames was stuttering and was directly extinguished by him the moment before the burst. What followed was suppressed loss and anger, as if the emotions of many years had erupted. It was not until the uninvited King Chi Feng Ming, who sent Yun Xiao into the gap in his palm that he pressed his forehead to force himself to wake up.
"Haha... I'm also a man after all." The Night King teased with malicious intentions, provoking the violent shock of the people's hearts.
The scene on the mirror demon was still changing. It was a calm afternoon. Di Zhong sat in the backyard and looked at the woman who was fanning the medicine beside him. The sun shone sparsely on the two of them. It was obviously midsummer but it was as cold as the cold winter. After a long time, he seemed to have said something. Unfortunately, the woman in front of him did not look up, but kept looking at the medicine furnace seriously and talking to him perfunctorily in a restless tone.
There was a flash of disappointment on Di Zhong's face, and he gradually became a little irritated, and was soon suppressed silently again. He sighed and leaned on the wheelchair, looking up at the cloudless sky in the long silence.
His eyes were faint and cold, and no one could understand what Di Zhong was thinking at that moment.
The Night King sighed with infinite emotion: "It's really sad. If he didn't help you, he would have replaced it long ago. The person he liked would not change his mind. Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now. I see that he looks like now, most of the time it will disappear if he can't hold on for a few years. He once told me that 'it's his own sins that he can't live. Now he has suffered a lot of bad consequences. I'm very curious, curious whether he has ever regretted it."
At this moment, a circle of thin blood-red suddenly appeared on the body of the mirror demon. Then with a puff, the body was cut into two pieces diagonally, and blood spurted out into the sky. The Night King stopped laughing. Seeing the other party's hand slightly moving, a faint golden light was retracted like silk threads, carrying familiar divine power. He still felt invisible pressure today. Xiao Qianye's face was not visible, but his eyes suddenly became calm from the beginning of anger, and he no longer wanted to waste time. He ignored the Night King's ridicule and strangled all the mirror demons in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Anyway, you can't escape, stay in hell honestly."
The face on the ice trembled, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, not knowing whether it was a sarcasm or a helpless smile. Xiao Qianye's eyes were still cold and sharp, and he retorted: "He will not regret it later. You are all defeated generals, and you will be trampled under your feet forever by the humans you look down upon the most forever."
"Ha, I haven't seen each other for a few years, Lord Xiao has become much more arrogant." Although the Night King's eyes were looking at him, his eyes seemed to see another extremely dim white light passing through the ice. The conversation full of gunpowder stopped abruptly. Xiao Qianye shook off the mirror demon without looking back and continued to search for Yu Linglong's traces deep in the distance. At this moment, the Night King also dissipated all the illusions. A black light mist suddenly appeared on the ice, and it quickly passed through the frozen lake surface and reached the last ice wall on the east bank of the Five Emperors Lake before he transformed his face again.
Perhaps he had guessed early in the morning that Xiao Qianye would be blocked by Xi Hui, but Di Zhong actually came with him. He concealed his breath, stood by the water, and smiled silently at his former fellow practitioners and friends.
