The northern part of the Holy Land is worthy of being called a dead place, with snow everywhere.
The land covered with heavy snow seemed to be devoid of any life.
Qin Xiaofei only saw a few cypress trees that could fear the severe cold along the way, and gained nothing more.
He kept moving towards the extremely cold place. Even if he wanted to ask for directions along the way, he could not find any sign of human existence.
Under such vicious conditions, if one were to fly in the air, he would turn into a popsicle in less than a few breaths of time.
Qin Xiaofei didn't have the confidence to fight against this world. He couldn't use the green gold energy, and he couldn't do it with his physical body alone.
After walking like this for an hour, Qin Xiaofei's brows and temples were covered with ice, and when he exhaled, ice fragments fell off both sides of his nostrils.
As the cold air blew through, heavy snow fell again at an untimely time, making Qin Xiaofei's situation even more difficult.
Birds have disappeared over thousands of mountains, and people have disappeared from thousands of paths. It seems to describe this place.
He now has no feeling in his limbs. Since his knees cannot bend, his walking posture is extremely awkward, like a disabled person.
Even so, the tenacious look in his eyes did not change at all.
Finally, with unremitting efforts, he saw a small house in the snowy land.
The oil lamp in the house gave off a faint light, just like the light of hope that completely ignited Qin Xiaofei.
He quickly rushed towards the wooden house and knocked on the door, "Is anyone there?"
Trivial sounds soon came from the house, and then the door was pushed open, and an elderly man appeared in front of Qin Xiaofei.
The old man was wearing a thick, warm black cotton coat and a black cloak made of animal fur.
He has an ordinary appearance but is extremely kind. He seems to get along with everyone, just like the uncle next door. His appearance alone gives people a sense of security.
When he saw Qin Xiaofei, he was stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He immediately realized what he was doing and hurriedly helped Qin Xiaofei into the house. He then took out the heater and placed it in the center of the house for warmth.
When Qin Xiaofei entered the room, he immediately felt a hint of warmth and said with trembling gratitude: "Thank you, senior."
He wanted to bow his hands but found that he couldn't bend his fingers at all, so he had no choice but to give up.
The old man didn't care about these etiquettes. He picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured Qin Xiaofei a bowl of turbid wine:
"Drink some soju to warm yourself up."
He did not immediately ask Qin Xiaofei how he got here, but squatted aside and smoked a pipe and pot.
Since he hadn't seen a living person for a long time, the old man's expression was extremely strange, and he glanced back at Qin Xiaofei from time to time.
Qin Xiaofei didn't think much, he held the wine bowl with both hands and drank the turbid liquor in one gulp.
His throat suddenly felt a burning tingling sensation, but some warmth returned to his body.
After another quarter of an hour of adjustment, his body finally regained consciousness, and he raised his hands to the old man and said gratefully:
"Thank you, senior, for lending a helping hand, otherwise this junior would have turned into an ice sculpture here."
However, after he regained his strength, he had a vague feeling that the old man was very extraordinary.
It goes without saying that one is capable of living alone in this extremely cold place.
"How did you get here alive?" The old man poured himself a bowl of turbid liquor and asked curiously.
The coldness here is beyond imagination. Even people in the void realm will freeze into statues if they don't have any unique means.
But Qin Xiaofei could insist on getting here, which made him full of curiosity.
"This junior wanted to go to the extremely cold place. After coming out of the Void Formation, he walked all the way inside, and then he came here." Qin Xiaofei said truthfully.
If he were dealing with ordinary people, he would definitely not say this.
But when facing this old man who was like an elder, he was completely defenseless.
"After you've had a rest, leave here as soon as possible." The old man said angrily.
"This place is full of dangers. If you want to find an opportunity, go somewhere else."
"You are lucky if you can come here alive. If you continue to move forward, you will be in trouble."
As he spoke, he knocked the pot on the table a few times to make the tobacco in the pot even closer.
Qin Xiaofei shook his head and said:
"The younger generation did not come here just for chance, but for some reasons they had to enter the extremely cold place."
As he spoke, he bowed his hands and said, "I hope senior can tell me the direction of the extremely cold place."
He was not familiar with the people and places here, so when he finally saw a living person, he naturally wanted to ask for directions to avoid wasting his efforts in vain.
But the old man turned a deaf ear, and with a slight movement of his true energy, he lit the pipe pot again and started puffing away the smoke.
After a while, he took his mouth away from the pipe and pot and said:
"I can tell you the direction and provide you with help, but you have to do one thing for me."
"This matter is extremely simple. You can do it anytime. Can you accept it?"
Qin Xiaofei was silent for a while and said:
"Senior, let me tell you first. If junior can't do it, then naturally he can't agree to it."
He won't make promises to people casually, so you have to ask first.
"I want you to go to a dynasty far away from the Holy State and help me take care of the forces there." The old man said in a deep voice.
There was a look of nostalgia in the depths of his eyes.
"These juniors can actually do it." A trace of bitterness appeared on Qin Xiaofei's face.
"It's just that this time, the junior will not be sure whether he will live or die when he enters the extremely cold place, so..."
The old man waved his hand and said indifferently:
"It doesn't matter, as long as you agree. As for whether you can go smoothly, it depends on your fate."
He had lived alone in a cold place for so long, and he only saw Qin Xiaofei today.
He was not sure whether he would be able to meet other people smoothly in the future.
Although hope is slim, it is better than nothing.
"Senior is so powerful, why don't you go in person?" Qin Xiaofei frowned.
People who can survive in a cold place are naturally not much different in strength.
Now he was entrusting the matter to himself, which he didn't understand.
"The strength is indeed not bad, but I am trapped by this world." A wry smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth and he shook his head slightly.
"Only when I have a chance to leave this place can I wait for a destined person."
"Twenty years have passed since I waited, and I still haven't waited."
His cultivation is at the late stage of the Void Realm, and someone with such strength is very popular in the Holy State.
Now that the most critical freedom has been lost, it is really ridiculous to say it.
Qin Xiaofei's face was full of disbelief when he heard this.
However, he did not inquire further and said:
"Senior, please tell me about the place you are going to. If I am really lucky enough to survive, I will definitely go there."
He was not lying. If the other party provided help, he would definitely go there in person in the future.
If he returned to the dynasty with his current strength, helping a small force would not be a problem at all.
The old man's eyes were full of yearning, as if he was recalling various past events.
After a long time, he stared at Qin Xiaofei with a solemn expression and sighed:
"Dali Dynasty, Yong'an College!"
Qin Xiaofei suddenly exclaimed with a surprised look on his face:
