Chapter 2216: Cold Plum Forest
ve sixth-tier Taoist puppet cavalrymen rushed out of the cave opening.This place is still a heavy water region. If they could leave this silent star lake, with Emperor Kun's speed, these terracotta pu...Lu Xia Tian personally inspected the Ice Volcano, but he didn't find any demonic beasts of the Fusion Realm. He directly drove away the low-level cultivators practicing divine abilities from this place. 。As time went by, the Ye Shi clan had settled down in the Red Moon Desert. Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Lu Xia Tian and Ye Zi Yu's preparations were almost complete. 。Before leaving, he refined a furnace of elixir for Yun Cangyue and greeted his followers before departing with Ye Ziyu on their flying swords. 。In a place where the wind howled, snowflakes swirled in the air amidst the icy gusts. 。A solitary plum blossom tree was already adorned with glistening icicles, sparkling in the sunlight. It stood out against the backdrop of thousands of acres of plum blossom forest, a riot of colors, dazzling to behold. The sight left one momentarily dazed and bewildered. 。But at this time, the scattered cultivators and monsters trapped in this ice crystal plum forest were well aware of their predicament. 。"This plum blossom grove is rather peculiar." 。"Ye Zi Yu felt the peculiarity of the plum blossom forest from afar, there was an inexplicable pull towards it." 。Even a cultivator at the Body Fusion Stage needs to operate their spiritual energy to resist it. As for cultivators at the Divine Void Stage, once a demonic beast passes nearby, they will be pulled into it without much resistance. 。According to the introduction on the map scroll, we're now in the outer region. 。One will naturally encounter all sorts of anomalies. 。Surrounded by a snowy country, Lu Xia Tian and Ye Zi Yu fell directly onto the hillside halfway up, overlooking the entire plum forest. 。The map scroll had some scattered introductions, and before your eyes was a kingdom of ice and snow. 。 。This is just the tip of the iceberg. 。Besides the map scroll left by Ye City Lord, Lu Xia Tian and Ye Ziyu also interrogated some low-level monsters or human cultivators in the surrounding areas these days, trying to find out as much information about this secret realm as possible. 。It's not that Lu Xia Tian didn't trust the information left by Ye City Lord on this map scroll, but he was just being cautious as usual. 。After all these years, no one can guarantee that there won't be some changes. 。Nothing in this world is constant. Judging from what Lu Xia Tian currently knows, this star region has existed for an extremely long time. There used to be a sect called Xing Gong in this star region, and its leader was a powerful figure who had achieved mastery of cultivation. However, the more powerful a person is, the more formidable their enemies become. 。After that, the star master disappeared for thousands of years without a trace. 。...Nor did she return to the Star Palace. ... 。There once came a powerful demon lord seeking revenge, wielding the Four Seasons Demon Bottle in his four palms, controlling the power of the changing seasons. 。The demonic bottle sealed off an area encompassing tens of thousands of miles in the surrounding star region. 。To storm the Xinggong, legend says they slaughtered everyone there. Whether anyone from Xinggong escaped, however, is unknown. 。This is a little outdated. 。There is also a lack of records from those who experienced this. 。With Lu Xiaotian's current cultivation level, his divine sense perception is only about 1,670 miles. It has already surpassed the limit that a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator can achieve. 。Though the Four Fiends were empowered by their artifacts, and managed to seal off an area of hundreds of thousands of miles, this heaven-shattering and earth-rending tactic was something even Lu Xia Tian had never heard before, leaving him deeply impressed. 。With his current level of cultivation, such immortal techniques are truly beyond imagination. 。
But the original Star Master, his divine powers were not inferior to these four Demon Lords either. The Star Palace's protective formations and restrictions were no trivial matter either.
People only know that the Star Palace is inescapable, but after the Four Directions Demon Lords attacked the Star Palace, they also disappeared. It is rumored that they have already perished with the powerful masters of the Star Palace. Otherwise, the Four Directions Demon Bottles would not have been left unattended and would still form a celestial phenomenon of four seasons changing within tens of thousands of miles. 。The so-called Four Seasons Demon Bottle refers to the cyclical change of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. 。 。For nearly ten thousand miles, ice and snow cover the sky. 。This alternatingly distinct four seasons is actually a kind of trap. It is said that it's not too difficult to enter from the outside, but it's much harder to get out. 。
Back then, no one in the entire Star Palace had ever heard of anyone escaping.
Even after tens of thousands of years, such a long time, even the powerful cultivators of the Tribulation Transcendence Period have long since fallen, but the visions here have not dissipated at all. Even for cultivators in the Union Body Realm, entering and leaving this place is extremely difficult. Otherwise, City Lord Ye would not have been so solemn when he was dying. 。At this time, within the glistening ice crystal plum forest, there was a tremendous pull. The ice crystal plum forest appeared picturesque, but amidst these colorful blooms lay hidden danger. Each icy branch, like a serpent or python, pierced through the bodies of humans, demons, and even monsters, absorbing their essence. 。
Some were found frozen to death in the plum blossom forest, their bodies covered in thick ice crystals, resembling sculptures.
Apart from these ice sculptures, there were also many living creatures struggling in the plum grove at this time, resisting the cold air that attacked them, or fighting with those branches like ice crystals. 。Let's go. 。"Ye Ziyu glanced at the low-level cultivators struggling in the Cold Plum Forest. He didn't intend to make a move. The entire cultivation world was like this. Along the way, he had encountered too many similar situations and couldn't save them all. Besides, you can know someone's face but not their heart. Who knows if they are saving a person with a good heart or a beast in human clothing" 。Sometimes I see something that looks okay, so I'll lend a hand. 。Most people are like that. 。"Wait a minute, I ran into some acquaintances." 。Lu Xia Tian stretched out his hand and grasped at empty space. The several Ghost-faced Black Robed Men who were trapped in the plum forest, their bodies already entangled by branches, were pulled out by this immense force. 。A few icy crystal branches refused to give up and pursued the meat to its mouth. Lu Xiaoteng stretched out his finger and fired a burst of sword energy, directly cutting those ice crystal branches into several pieces. 。Thank you seniors for your lifesaving grace. 。One day, several Qin Clan members approached Lu Xiaodao and thanked him. 。"With your abilities, coming to this place is too risky. Leave sooner rather than later." 。
Even going deeper inside, it might not be possible to leave.
Lu Xia Tian reminded, although he didn't have much dealings with the Qin people, more often than not it was just business. 。At least we once stood together in the Lingxu Secret Realm, fending off the terrifying Zizhu Ghost King who was ablaze with fury at that time. 。When one is in danger, one can't possibly help others. Within one's capacity, helping someone else out doesn't take much effort at all. 。"We were also driven to desperation and ventured into this dangerous situation for refuge, who knew it would be a place we couldn't get out of." 。If it weren't for the seniors' help this time, several of us from the clan would have been in trouble. 。“One day, her heart was filled with lingering fear.” 。"Leave on your own." 。Lu Xia Tian waved his hand, and when these Qin clan members came to their senses, Lu Xia Tian and Ye Ziyu had already drifted far away. 。“Never expected that after only a few years entering this world, senior Lu and the others have already reached such a realm” 。"Several members of the Qin clan looked on with envy," 。It is better to retreat and set nets than to stand by the pond admiring fish. 。As long as we work hard enough, there will come a day when we can achieve this level too. 。His eyes held a resolute look. 。The biting wind was like a knife, and even Ye Ziyu directly exposed to that frigid air would feel as if she were being cut by a blade. 。course, the snow hut was a peaceful place, but with Lu Xia Tian's current state, it wouldn't be suitable for him to stay in such a cold place. He couldn't withstand the cold now.Since Lu Xia Tian move...
