Looking at the poor girl whose eyes were red from crying and twitching with fear, Li Chen sighed inaudibly. He was speechless for a moment, after all, he had never seen such a fragile girl.
He reached out and rubbed the girl's soft hair. The girl didn't resist much because she was too busy being scared.
"Okay, okay, don't cry. I'll go there with you. Is that okay?"
Sure enough, just as Li Chen expected, this timid girl was not afraid of being used as an experiment by Li Chen, but simply did not dare to go there alone. She took the word timid to the extreme.
So, how did she escape from the monster's mouth? Was it luck? Li Chen was a little puzzled, but he didn't delve into it.
After Li Chen said this, she immediately stretched out her tiny fingers and made a hook-pull motion. She looked extremely childish. She needed reassurance.
However, Li Chen still stretched out his fingers and pulled her, trying to comfort her.
It's just that the plan was disrupted, which gave Li Chen a headache. This was very different from his plan.
He naturally knew exactly what Li Chen's constitution was, and he was simply a humanoid disaster inducer.
If something doesn't happen wherever he passes, it's abnormal, so he must be more cautious.
Moreover, this space passage itself is a bit tricky, and it feels out of place with the surroundings. With Li Chen's bad luck, he is really afraid that something will happen when he passes through.
Or to think more cautiously, the passage itself is a trap? Is it used for hunting?
Dark cultivator...?
In short, it was based on these thoughts that he proposed to let the girl go first.
It is definitely safer for a girl to pass through than for him. Firstly, because the girl has already passed through once, it will not be too unlucky for her to enter the palace a second time.
The second reason is that the girl is too weak, has almost no strength, and has no target value at all. Of course, these are secondary. The one thing Li Chen wants to verify most is whether this channel has two-way flow.
That is, after passing here, you can walk back from the opposite side.
Only by confirming this will it be easier for him to operate. At least he won't be unable to come back after going through it. That would be too careless.
Things haven't been finished yet...
But... now... it's a bit difficult to handle. I was forced to have no choice but to bite the bullet and go in.
…
"City Lord, the situation is getting more and more serious.
Subordinates must report to you.
To this day, at least a quarter of the geniuses have been lost in the wind and snow without a trace!" In the not-so-wide office, a soldier wearing heavy metal armor was reporting.
There was sweat on his forehead and he was extremely nervous. Although the city lord had warned him not to disturb his retreat, if the current situation were to go according to what the city lord said, something big might happen!
What's more, it was his boss who forced him to come in and report to him. He is a poor unlucky guy...
At this moment, directly in front of him, a man in plain clothes sat cross-legged, his hot breath distorting the air around him.
He slowly opened his eyes, and his ice-blue eyes were extremely penetrating: "What happened, please explain in more detail?"
The soldier immediately spoke: "Six hours ago, our department carried out the screening of freshmen according to the original plan, and the subject selected this time was a more difficult "practical combat".
Taking into account the frequent changes of sensitive animals in the outside world today, Professor Liufeng proposed to re-screen the topics and choose a relatively safe plan for screening.
But Professor Moss strongly objected. He said: If they cannot overcome even this danger, then they are not qualified to shoulder the responsibility for the future of mankind.
Professor Moss's speech was agreed by several professors, including Professor Milan.
Professor Liufeng argued hard, and finally, the Faculty Academy started the voting process.
Maintain the draw: 17 votes, redraw: 8 votes. More than 2/3 of the professors participated in this vote, which is authentic and valid. The assessment plan was finalized and started.
Five hours ago, the venue was set up. Seven professors, including Professor Milan, were responsible for the security around the venue. Seven professors, including Professor Liufeng, were responsible for student safety. Ten professors, including Professor Moss, conducted performance reviews.
Four hours ago, there were ice explosions all over the sky in the four directions of the assessment site, the southeast, northwest, and everything. At the same time, seven professors and eighty students lost contact.
Three hours ago, the number expanded to 200 people.
An hour ago, the number expanded to 400 people.
Just now, a quarter of the talented students and a third of the professors have lost contact. The situation is serious!"
Murong Fu stood up slowly, his ice-blue eyes full of indifference and ruthlessness: "So, it is such a trivial matter that made you interrupt my practice?"
The soldier's mood, which he had finally calmed down with great difficulty, was immediately aroused. Thinking of this man's past deeds, his face became uncontrollably pale.
He replied with a trembling tone: "I don't dare!"
"Do you want me to wipe your butts? Since the decision was not made by me, it has nothing to do with me at this time, so... do you understand?" Murong Fu's eyes were cold, but emotionless.
The soldiers responded repeatedly and hurriedly ran out.
He cursed his boss countless times in his heart. Ever since City Lord Murong started to practice the fire spell, he has become more and more difficult to serve. His superior knew this clearly and sent him to deliver the message. This was the key point.
Damn him!
…
The sky was full of white mist, and snowflakes hit my face, causing burning pain.
The snow-white face with a hint of cherry red quietly shrank into the clothes, and the ice-blue eyes were slightly closed, not daring to look around.
Murong Si had already put on the somewhat damaged white clothes. Logically speaking, it should still be enough to keep out the cold, but she was just an ordinary person, and the sudden bad weather in the ice field brought extremely low temperatures.
This made the usually invincible fleece useless, and she could only half-shrink and tremble.
She shrank behind the person in front of her, leaning against the pine-like figure in front of her to avoid the biting cold wind and snow particles.
But she didn't dare to get too close. She was afraid of being disliked. If she was disliked and abandoned here, she would probably die. She didn't want to die...
Li Chen could tell that this girl was timid and shy. She had too many buffs and didn't know how she survived...
He had no choice but to reach out and grab the girl's hand. The girl subconsciously wanted to resist, but when she looked up, it was Li Chen who was looking for her hand. She froze immediately. She did not dare to resist Li Chen.
In front of her, she was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. The only choice she could make was to stretch her neck or shrink it.
She could only let Li Chen hold her hand.
She thought Li Chen was going to take advantage of her, but that didn't seem to be the case.
Soon, a warm feeling spread along her hands, and her nearly frozen body warmed up again. The coldness left her in an instant, and the wind and snow turned into nothing.
She took a breath in disbelief, her eyes filled with shock. As a result, the cold air flowed down her trachea, causing her to cough uncontrollably.
Li Chen once again felt helpless towards this unintelligent girl. He stretched out his hand and patted the girl's back gently. After a burst of spiritual energy, the girl stopped coughing.
"It's amazing." She murmured softly, with a sickly blush on her face, and her expression was somewhere between calm and surprised. Unfortunately, from this angle, Li Chen couldn't see her at all.
At this moment, Li Chen didn't want to pay attention to her anymore. He was not here to take care of the child, so he set his sights in the distance.
Facts have proved that he was indeed overthinking. The space passage was neither a trap nor some inferior goods that could collapse at any time, but a solid and long-lasting constant passage.
It is a rare good thing. With the help of this space channel, Li Chen can freely travel between the two worlds.
It was also through this passage that Li Chen thought of many things.
Since there is a space channel to connect here, does it exist in other places? Moreover, when crossing the space channel, he found a lot of clues. With the help of those clues, Li Chen could deduce a lot of things.
First, the age of the passage is probably very exaggerated, reaching thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Certain etching marks in the space cracks have already indicated its age.
What shocked Li Chen the most was the infinitely deep void outside the passage. It was such a beautiful scene.
The flowers of the void are blooming, and all the brilliance and beauty are contained in them, along with the greatness and immortality, brilliance and dimness of countless ages... until eternity.
A scene like that could only be discerned by lighting up the bright golden pupils, so Murong Si must not have had such good eyesight.
Just like now, Li Chen only slightly lit up his golden pupils, and the scenes hundreds or thousands of miles away were clearly visible, and the wind and snow were as if they were nothing in his eyes.
He held his cold little hands and slowly stepped forward.
But with just such a slow step, he covered a large distance in an instant.
After Li Chen obtained the magical effect of the Eternal Night Cultivation Method and the strength of the Daojie Cultivation Method, his understanding of the path of cultivation has deepened a lot, and his use of power has naturally been greatly improved.
Human beings can learn, so they have systems and methods of practice. However, the source of the system itself is the continuous exploration and practice of predecessors in the past generations. Therefore, the use of power will not be too rigid.
Powerful beings can exert their strength as they wish. This is what Li Chen lacks, so he keeps trying.
Manipulating the ice and snow under your feet creates a strange feeling of "shrinking the ground into an inch".
He understood the principle and was not surprised at all, but the girl didn't know. Her pink lips were open, and she was extremely surprised. It was a move she had never seen before, and it looked very powerful.
It is estimated that even the most powerful trial site cannot learn this skill. After all, his grandfather is an outstanding graduate, and he can only run on the snow, and he cannot be so free and unrestrained...
Li Chen slowly frowned, his golden pupils peered through the wind and snow, and he seemed to have seen something interesting!
