Chapter 178 Treasure
The snow on the ground is very thick, and it can cover your knees if you step on it. The wind is cold and the snowflakes blowing over are like a knife cutting on your face.
Ding Xiao was moving forward alone in the snow and ice.
It was only five miles away from the treasure, but Ding Xiao did not dare to be careless at all.
This is the territory of the Spirit Master-level Spirit Evil. After the winter, the Spirit Evil is not extinct, it is just a reduction in activities. Ding Xiao must be extra cautious.
After leaving the cave, Ding Xiao could still see Ouyang Muxue's footsteps.
This woman was indeed going in the wrong direction and was heading deep into the wilderness.
However, the heavy snow quickly buried the footprints behind her, and Ding Xiao no longer cared about it.
Ding Xiao specially chose to travel during Blizzard, which reduced the chance of encountering the Spirit Evil. In addition, he was cautious all the way and walked three or four miles without encountering the Spirit Evil.
However, Ding Xiao still dared not slacken at all.
The closer he is to the treasure, the deeper he goes into the wilderness. Once he encounters a spirit evil here, the higher the chance of a high-level spirit master appearing!
It was only half a mile away from the treasure. The heavy snow blocked Ding Xiao's vision, making him unable to see far, so he could only move forward.
Suddenly, a piece of white veil was suddenly followed by the strong wind, and towards Ding Xiao. Ding Xiao quickly looked and grabbed the white veil.
There is a faint fragrance on the white gauze, which seems familiar. Ding Xiao recalled it a little and remembered that it was the fragrance of Ouyang Muxue!
"Well? She is nearby too?" Ding Xiao immediately became alert.
Could it be that she is also here to find treasures?
At this moment, a rumbling sound came from afar!
Ding Xiao immediately looked for the sound.
After several huge rocks, Ding Xiao saw two figures.
One of them is a huge terrifying creature about fifteen meters.
This guy was snow-white all over, and the front half of his head looked like a lizard, but the back of his head was bulging high and very exaggerated. The skin he supported was red, and it was covered with human faces. Every face was exposed. The entire back of his head beating regularly like a heart.
Its upper body is extremely strong, its back is bulging, and its arms can touch the ground when standing upright, and there are fleshy wings on the back of its arms.
Ding Xiao's eyes widened, "That's... the Ice Breath Dragon?!"
Although the Ice Breath Dragon is not a real dragon, its body is too strong, and the fleshy wings on the back of the arm cannot support them to fly and can only be used to glide.
However, being able to bring the word "dragon" has proved that the Ice Breath Dragon is definitely not low.
In the spiritual image book, the ice breathing dragon can reach the highest level seven medium level and the lowest level six!
However, the figure opposite the Ice Breath Dragon shocked Ding Xiao even more.
That guy is Ouyang Muxue!
She had summoned the spiritual image at this moment, and her spiritual image was actually a woman with half a human body!
There was a natural cold air around the spiritual plane, white hair, and a sacred and solemn temperament.
"This... what kind of spiritual image is this!" Ding Xiao widened his eyes. He had no idea about Ouyang Muxue's spiritual image variety!
Ouyang Muxue and the Ice Breath Dragon are in full swing.
What Ding Xiao could not imagine was that although Ouyang Muxue was stupid, he was completely different from before when he started to fight.
Her body movement was extremely fast, and she was traveling calmly in front of the huge ice breathing dragon.
She used a long sword, her sword technique was unpredictable, her sword force was sharp, and her moves were fast and accurate.
Moreover, Ding Xiao noticed that every time Ouyang Muxue attacked a certain body part of the Ice Breath Dragon, it would cause a layer of frost to form on the muscles near the attack point, and the Breath Dragon's movements would immediately slow down half a beat!
"Ice Attack!" Ding Xiao said in shock. Ouyang Muxue did not use the Fire Spirit Pearl. The Ice Spirit Pearl can produce such an effect.
I don’t know if it was the cold light silver sword in her hand or the effect of her spiritual appearance.
There was a transparent round bead beside her, which was always followed by her figure. Every time the Ice Breath Dragon attacked her, the round bead lighted up, and an ice shield appeared in front of Ouyang Muxue.
This shield seems to have extremely strong physical defense capabilities. With such a fierce attack as the Ice Breath Dragon, it cannot even break the Ice Shield.
This ice-breathing dragon is at least a spirit evil spirit of the spirit master, and Ouyang Muxue responds calmly in front of it without any disadvantage.
I have to say that Ouyang Muxue's strength is probably still above Ding Xiao!
"It turns out that people should not behave like appearance!" Ding Xiao sighed.
However, Ding Xiao has not forgotten his main task.
The current position of the two fighting is only a few hundred meters away from the treasure marked on the map.
Ding Xiao suspected that Ouyang Muxue might have come for the treasure.
That being the case, he must take the lead now!
Things like pitying and cherishing jade appear very frequently in Ding Xiao, not to mention that Ouyang Muxue seems to be in danger for the time being.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiao secretly walked around the other side of the boulder, along the foot of the mountain, and carefully bypassed the two people in the fierce battle.
There is a huge cave in front of it, and it is exactly where the map is marked. It is very likely that the treasure is in that cave**.
"It can't be the Ice Breath Dragon's nest..." Ding Xiao gritted his teeth and sneaked in.
As soon as I entered the cave, the sound of wind and snow outside suddenly became less.
It was just the rotten and fishy smell that spread in the cave that almost made Ding Xiao spit out his breakfast.
"It's really that guy's nest... Fortunately, Ouyang Muxue led that guy out, otherwise I really wouldn't have a chance!"
The cave extends toward the ground, and I don't know how deep it is.
Ding Xiao lit a soul-attracting lamp and quickly penetrated along the tunnel.
The sound outside the cave became farther and farther away until I couldn't hear it. I could only hear the cave, and I didn't know where the sound of dingdong water came.
After walking for a while, the road ahead was blocked by a wall. Ding Xiao raised the soul-attracting lamp to check the wall.
"So flat... This is not a natural stone wall, it's more like... a stone tomb door!"
It seems that the Ice Breath Dragon dug the cave in front of a tomb underground.
As a coffin-carrying man, Ding Xiao still knows the tomb very well. It is difficult to open this stone tomb door with brute force. Even if it is opened, it may destroy the internal structure of the tomb.
The best way is to find a mechanism.
Ding Xiao carried the soul-guiding lamp to check carefully on the wall.
"Is this...is it the Bagua Soul Locking Tomb?" Ding Xiao carefully touched the pattern on the wall.
The tombs of ordinary people are to let the dead rest in peace, and the stone gate of the tomb here actually means to lock the soul, which is really strange.
However, Ding Xiao still found the mechanism on the stone gate, which was a movable lotus pattern. Just use the handle on the side to move up and down, left and right, and control the movement and return of the six petals to the position.
Ding Xiao quickly pulled the handle and quickly returned the lotus to his position.
After the lotus returned to its position, two lines of poetry appeared under the lotus.
Ten years of life and death are inseparable, and you will never forget it without thinking about it.
A lonely grave thousands of miles away, nowhere to talk about desolation.
Even if we meet, we will not recognize each other, and our faces will be covered with dust and our temples will be like frost.
Ding Xiao frowned. He didn't know if it was left by the tomb owner or the person who built the tomb.
