Just like that, the five of them set off to continue their journey, and their figures quickly became small and blurred.
After all, Yang Liushi did not throw away the beads, but put them in her bag.
At this moment, she still doesn't know what the ball is, and she doesn't know what she will gain or lose because of it.
All doubts gradually disappeared into the vast snow-capped mountains under the gaze of the little fox.
Chapter 609 Giant Beast at the Bottom of the Lake
Leaving the mountain temple and continuing north, the road became more and more difficult.
Or in other words, there is no road at all, and everyone just shuttles back and forth among the snow-covered rocks.
According to Huang Sheng, there are actually several relatively easy routes in the Tianshan Mountains, but the snow is too thick in winter to distinguish them.
But that's not a big deal.
In the realm of five people, whether there is a road or not will not affect the speed too much, as long as the direction is correct.
"call!"
The sun is dazzling, and the mountain wind is not strong.
The footprints left on the white snow are very shallow, and no trace can be seen after being blown by the wind.
The speed of the group was not fast, but it was definitely not slow. After a while, they could no longer see Wangnan Peak and Shanshen Temple behind them, and all they could see was the same snow scene.
After turning over a mountain peak, there is another mountain valley in front of you.
Passing through this valley, there is another mountain peak ahead.
Being in the mountains, it is difficult to judge the "altitude" by feeling. Wei Changtian can only deduce from the gradually thinning air and the approaching clouds that their current location should be very high.
The golden day is in full swing, and the thick snow refracts the sunlight, making the eyes shine brightly. The mist like clouds reflects the peaks of the snow-capped mountains.
If it was in the previous life, or not long after time travelling, Wei Changtian might still admire the magnificence of nature after seeing this scene.
However, now he has seen too many magnificent scenery, so it can be said that there is no wave in his heart at the moment.
In this way, the five of them drove for a day with their heads covered, not only did they not rest during the period, but they did not even say a few words.
And Tiangong is also considered beautiful, the whole day is quiet and quiet, and it is not until nightfall that it gradually snows all over the sky.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the snow changed from turbulent to rough and dark.
The cold wind covered the moon with snowflakes, but it couldn't cover the moonlight, and even gave people the illusion of being in dusk.
After walking for another half an hour under the blizzard, everyone finally arrived at today's destination in the middle of the night.
Tianshan Xianchi.
......
The bright lake reflects the white snow, completely seeing the moonlight.
When the snow-capped mountain lake filled with white mist appeared in front of them, the five of them decided to take a rest by the lake and continue on their way after the snow was a little lighter.
Although the wind and snow will not affect their speed no matter how big it is, but the heavy snow and night will interfere with their vision, and they will not go anywhere soon if they continue walking, so it is better to take a rest.
"My lord, the villain has already reported Mrs. Liang Qin's safety."
By the lake, Zhang San leaned over to Wei Changtian who was sitting on a boulder, and whispered, "Also, General Liang just sent a letter saying that all the carefully crafted fate cards in the enemy army have been broken today."
"Ah."
Looking ahead, Wei Changtian nodded slightly.
This situation was expected, so he was not surprised.
"Anything else?"
"Have."
Zhang San continued: "General Liang also said that a large number of scouts will be sent into the mountain tomorrow, and the investigation range can be hundreds of miles from east to west."
"Hundreds of miles...a drop in the bucket."
Wei Changtian shook his head: "Okay, you go and rest."
"Yes."
"..."
After bowing, Zhang San retreated quickly, found a leeward place and sat cross-legged.
The wind and snow were too heavy, and there was no place to cover them, so no one was in the mood to start a fire and cook. They all rested after eating a bigu dan just now.
Of course, it is definitely impossible to sleep in this environment.
But they are all practitioners, and sitting in meditation can also be counted as rest, so now Zhang San and the others are practicing with their eyes closed.
Wei Changtian glanced back, and then set his eyes on the big lake in front of him.
The water surface is wide, about the size of a dozen football fields, and the lake is very clear.
If it weren't for the strong wind now, it is estimated that the bottom of the lake could be seen at a glance.
When I traveled to Tianchi in my previous life, the tour guide said that the reason why the snow mountain lake does not freeze is because there is a crater underneath, and the water temperature is stable due to geothermal heat.
To put it bluntly, it is a hot spring.
I don't know if this "Xianchi" is not frozen all the year round is also the reason...
Wei Changtian thought about it for a while, and didn't have the idea of going to a hot spring. He quickly closed his eyes and entered the dream path, and continued to practice his Luo Qiong Sword.
The two phases of lake light and heavy snow blend together, and the wind and ripples have not worn the mirror.
Looking at the fairy pond reflecting the sky, the white jade plate is full of stars.
Immortal pond, wind and snow, starlight, reflection...
Unlike Wei Changtian and the other four, Yang Liushi, who was also sitting by the lake, didn't need to practice, but watched the scenery silently, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
She was born in Shiwan Dashan, which is humid and hot all the year round, not to mention snowy mountains, she had never even seen snow before she transformed into a human form.
Although he later turned into a human being and went to the capital under Qingxian's order, he could see a few big or small snowfalls every winter, but there was no such shock.
So now seeing this uncanny scene, Yang Liushi naturally finds it interesting.
But after watching it for a while, the feeling in her heart gradually faded, and she took out the white bead again when she was bored.
The moonlight fell on the smooth pearl surface, reflecting a slight fluorescence, which was then covered by the snow.
Yang Liushi looked at it over and over for a while, only thinking that this thing should not be simple, but she didn't know where it was not simple.
It can only be said that this object has a very weak attraction, as if it is attracting itself.
But this feeling is very weak, if you don't feel it deliberately, you can hardly notice it.
"what is it......"
Muttering something softly, Yang Liushi gently wiped off the snow on the ball, and was going to ask Qingxian after returning to Shuzhou.
However, at this moment, a vision suddenly appeared in Xianchi in front of him, and the four of Wei Changtian also opened their eyes at the same time.
"Whoa!!!"
Wherever the five people looked, the lake surface suddenly began to swell violently, and the originally calm lake water also turned into waves and rolled towards the shore.
The big wave jumped into the sky for a long time, smashing the silver mountain into snowflakes.
The accident happened so suddenly that everyone on the shore became extremely serious, and their eyes were fixed on the increasingly churning surface of the lake.
In fact, if the Xianchi is reduced, this is a very common scene.
After all, this is how people get out of the bathtub after taking a bath.
It's just that compared to the beauty coming out of the bath, the thing that will emerge from the Immortal Pond is obviously much larger...
"boom!!!"
The sound of the waves turned into a loud noise that echoed among the mountain peaks, and the lake in the center of the fairy pond obviously bulged a lot, gradually revealing the appearance of a giant at the bottom of the pond.
Claws, white feathers, red scales...
"Cang!"
"Cang Lang Lang!!"
Wei Changtian, Zhang San, Lu Huang, and Huang Sheng drew their sabers out of their sheaths almost at the same time, with gloomy faces, but they did not take a step back.
"Bang! Bang bang bang!!"
Wave after wave of several feet high lake water collided with the shield wall formed by zhenqi, and turned into rainwater pouring down the sky.
"Qiang!!!"
A few breaths later, with a hissing sound like interlaced sword blades, it suddenly exploded in the night sky, and the huge monster coiled at the bottom of the lake broke free from the surface of the lake, and finally appeared in front of the five people.
Looking at the thing in front of him, Wei Changtian's pupils suddenly contracted, and his breathing stopped for a beat.
The reactions of the rest were even worse.
The five of them began to guess what the monster living at the bottom of the lake was from the moment the vision appeared.
With such a body shape, it is most likely to be a fish demon with deep knowledge, or something like a water snake or a turtle.
But what appeared in front of him at this moment was the most unlikely monster hidden in the water.
It has feathers and wings, a sharp beak and sharp claws.
This is clearly a bird!
And let's not talk about why such a giant bird lives in the frozen fairy pond, just the appearance of this bird...
"Fuck..."
Wei Changtian moved his lips in disbelief.
"This shit is... Phoenix???"
Chapter 610 White Feather Red Bird
"Zheng!!!"
The red scales cover the white feathers, and the feathers are covered with red flames.
Bloodshot lines covered the whole body, and the flames soaring into the sky covered the wind and snow in the blink of an eye, and the loud and clear phoenix cry also erupted.
Obviously, Wei Changtian had never seen a real phoenix before, and his impression of this mythical creature only existed in his previous film and television works.
Although there is still a big gap between this huge fiery monster and those gorgeous red film and television images, the first reaction that appeared in his mind was——
Even if it's not a phoenix, it's definitely not weak.
"..."
Taking advantage of the time when the monster was still tumbling in the air, the five people slowly gathered together, and each gave out the information they had analyzed.
"My lord! This monster probably has nearly a thousand years of Taoism, and its strength is by no means weaker than that of the last general!" Lu Huang said this.
"No wonder the huge fairy pond is not frozen all year round! Feelings are hidden in the bottom of the water!" This is what Zhang San said.
"It's no wonder that some people often claim to have seen the Nine Heavens God Bird in the Tianshan Mountains, and it turned out to be this monster!" This is what Huang Sheng said.
The three quickly finished speaking, and then raised their knives to stare at the every move of the fiery red beast shadow in the distance.
And Yang Liushi, who was guarded by four men, hesitated for a moment, and then said softly:
"My lord, this seems to be a red bird with white feathers..."
"You call this thing a bird??"
Wei Changtian glanced at the billowing sea of flames in mid-air, and thought that this thing was almost as big as an airplane.
However, the name White Feather Red Bird quite fits its image.
"My lord, I'm just guessing."
On the other side, Yang Liushi frowned: "Among the [-] mountains, there are also red birds with white feathers. I...cough, I was lucky enough to see it once, and it looks very similar to this one in front of me."
"It's just that this beast has a docile personality most of the time. Normally, it will only cover itself in flames when it is extremely angry."
"I don't know why it looks like this now..."
