Chapter 22 Into the Ice Abyss
Chapter 22 Entering the Ice Abyss
On the third day, Lin Qi and Senior Sister Yuan Xi were ready to go.
True Lord Qingyun personally sent the two of them to Kill Bingfeng.
Luo Ci was also taken along.
He stood next to Zhenjun Qingyun, watching Lin Qi follow Yuan Xi and a group of disciples from Ice Killing Peak into the Ice Killing Abyss, he was so envious that he almost fell down.
For a moment, he also wanted to try his luck in Fangshi.
Is it possible to win some opportunities even if it is guaranteed?
Zhenjun Qingyun glanced at him lightly, with a gentle smile on his lips.
"Opportunities have to be exchanged for a price. If Yuan Xi was not present that day, Xiao Qi would probably be in bad luck."
It seemed like a casual sigh, but it struck a chord in Luo Ci's thoughts.
Luo Ci had a stern face, a straight waist, and a guilty conscience all over his body.
The smile on Zhenjun Qingyun's face could not be concealed, "Luo Ci, when practicing, you should be down-to-earth and focus on your foundation."
"You have now broken through the first level of Qi refining and have refined an eight-sided wind formation disk for your new teacher. Let me try it out for you first."
Luo Ci's dim eyes suddenly radiated a bright light. He was not aware of the danger, and happily followed Zhenjun Qingyun back to Zonglei Peak.
…
Lin Qi hugged Senior Sister Yuan Xi's waist and experienced flying with a sword for the first time.
Even the cold wind blowing against her face could not suppress her excited heart.
In the cold abyss, countless white-clothed monks flying with swords shuttled through it.
The cliffs on both sides are all made of thousands of years of ice, and the cold air coming out seems like smoke. It is both beautiful and dangerous.
The further down he went, the cold and oppressive air rushed into his body, and Lin Qi became more and more awed by this bottomless abyss.
When they arrived at a raised round platform made of ice, the elder of the ice-killing peak who led the way descended first.
The disciples who followed also landed in an orderly manner and were neatly arranged on the round platform.
Elder Yue put away his sword, put one hand behind his back and called out names.
Lin Qi was stunned when she heard the words Tan Yueqing, and subconsciously turned her eyes towards the team belonging to Slaughter Ice Peak.
There are a total of fifty disciples entering the Ice Killing Abyss this time, forty of them are from Ice Killing Peak, and the remaining ten spots are still competed for by various peaks.
Although the teams were not clearly divided, the disciples of each peak who formed a separate team were obviously a little out of place.
Lin Qi saw Tan Yueqing, who was half a head taller than her, behind the team that killed Bingfeng.
Her thin figure was also very conspicuous in front of a crowd of thirteen or fourteen-year-old Foundation Establishment disciples.
The girl's face is beautiful, but her whole body is full of indifference and coldness. Her eyes are clear and looking forward without much emotion.
The quota to enter the Ice Killing Abyss is precious. Even for the Ice Killing Peak, outstanding disciples are selected to enter during the foundation building period.
Tan Yueqing, a new disciple who had just joined the sect, could also be sent into the Ice Killing Abyss, which shows how much the Ice Killing Peak values her.
Lin Qi thought, this should be a good competitor.
"Zong Lei Feng, Lin Qi."
When Elder Yue called out for the first time, he found that there was silence all around and no one responded.
He patiently shouted again: "Zong Lei Feng, Lin Qi!"
After a few breaths, Lin Qi's clear voice sounded: "The disciple is here."
Her childish voice immediately attracted the attention of many people. When everyone saw Lin Qi behind Yuan Xi, they were all shocked.
With this height and appearance, he is probably only five years old, right?
As soon as he entered the sect, he was sent to the Ice Killing Abyss. What kind of genius could he be?
By the way, is there such a little girl among the top ten to climb the Immortal Ladder this year?
Elder Yue paused for a moment, stared at Lin Qi's face and carefully checked the information. After confirming that the person was correct, he reminded: "Answer faster next time. If you fail to respond more than three times, you will be sent for identity verification."
Lin Qi looked at Elder Yue with wide eyes, her fair and tender face looked innocent and innocent.
Elder Yue withdrew his gaze and was about to read the next person's name when he heard Lin Qi respond unhurriedly: "Yes."
His eyes focused on Lin Qi's face for an instant.
She behaved very quietly and well-behaved, without any arrogance or coldness on her face. She seemed to be born with a slow reaction time.
Elder Yue raised his eyelids and glanced at Lin Qi again, and continued to tell his name.
After ordering the people, he reminded loudly: "When you enter the cave later, the disciples in the Qi training period will stop behind the first door, and the foundation-building disciples will stop behind the second door. Those who have reached Dzogchen in the later stage of foundation-building will then stop.
I kept walking in."
"yes."
A group of disciples responded respectfully.
When the voice fell and returned to calmness, Lin Qi's slow "yes" sounded out.
Now everyone realized that Lin Qi was a chronic person.
However, most of the people here are Foundation Establishment monks. They have seen a lot of things in the world and will not make a fuss. On the contrary, they have a little more understanding of Lin Qi's slow reaction.
Lin Qi followed Senior Sister Yuan Xi into the cave, and she glanced around curiously.
"Senior sister, how could Liu Bingfeng think of opening such a big cave in the middle of the ice cliff?"
The cave is sixty feet high and is located halfway up the mountain. There are various magnificent ice sculptures at the entrance, and formation patterns are everywhere in every corner.
It’s unknown how much manpower and material resources it would cost to build such an ice cave.
The further you go, the more intense the cold air becomes.
Lin Qi vaguely guessed why the threshold was set for disciples entering the cave.
Senior sister Yuan Xi replied in a low voice: "This cave was built by Zhenjun Tinghan's ancestor to preserve the body of his beloved. It took decades from site selection to arrangement of formations and carvings. As a result, the cave has not been completed yet. Then
The lover of an ancestor was physically destroyed by evil cultivators.
The ancestor broke into the evil cultivator's base camp in anger, killed her for ten days and ten nights, and finally slept forever deep in the cave with her lover's body in her arms."
Only then did Lin Qi realize how the beautiful carvings and formation patterns she saw along the way came from.
Senior sister Yuan Xi explained carefully at her side: "Later, the sect leader discovered that the cold air in the cave was conducive to the cultivation of Binglinggen monks, so he discussed with the then master of Ice Killing Peak to send a group of disciples to practice inside every year."
"Because it was opened by the ancestors of the Ice-Slaying Peak, the number of places to enter is always in the hands of the Ice-Slaying Peak. However, all matters after the disciples enter the Ice-Slaying Abyss need to be taken care of by the Ice-Slaying Peak."
Lin Qi nodded clearly and pulled Senior Sister Yuan Xi's sleeve.
"Senior sister, you can just follow Elder Yue to the back later. Don't worry about me."
Lin Qi understands Senior Sister Yuan Xi’s gentle and considerate character.
She would definitely spend some time with Lin Qi at the first door, and then go to the back after Lin Qi was completely familiar with the environment.
But Lin Qi didn't want to waste Senior Sister Yuan Xi's training time, so she spoke in advance.
Senior Sister Yuan Xi wanted to say something, but Lin Qi pulled her sleeves and started acting coquettishly.
"Senior sister, I have remembered everything you reminded me when you came here."
"You are a foundation-building monk. If you stay with me in the place where the Qi-training disciples stay, wouldn't it be a waste of the master's efforts? And I will feel guilty and uneasy."
Lin Qi knew that she couldn't persuade her senior sister by reasoning, so she could only play the emotional card.
As expected, Senior Sister Yuan Xi had no power to resist, so she could only forcefully stuff the buds of the Fire Spirit Flower into Lin Qi's arms when they parted.
He kept nagging at the side and gave various precautions, which attracted envious looks from the qi training disciples around him.
Today's update is a bit late, the next one will probably be in the evening.
