I felt quite disappointed.
The blazing sun in the sky was so bright that it made me feel hot. The purple snow on the ground looked like garbage piled up here, which was weird.
In the distance, gusts of freezing wind were blowing fiercely, and a thick layer of icicles appeared on many trees.
Only the golden palace that seemed out of reach looked like something.
"Senior, is this really a place of compassion?"
I just couldn't connect the immortal treasure with this strange place.
The mysterious elder nodded and said, "Yes, this is the Land of Compassion. However, although it looks very desolate and quiet, it is actually dangerous. Therefore, we must be careful when looking for the ancient Bodhi tree. As far as I know, the ancient Bodhi tree should be near the temple. Only the golden 'Temple of Light' is not polluted by the crimson snow."
"Okay, let's head there then."
Because the immortal space is filled with crimson purple snow and there are gusts of dissipating wind blowing from time to time, it is extremely cold here. If ordinary people come in, they will definitely not be able to hold on for long and their bodies will be frozen.
Our bodies were filled with spiritual energy and we were not affected by the cold air.
I originally planned to fly over in mid-air, but the mysterious senior told me that I couldn't fly in mid-air. Because just like he said, this place is not safe, and there might be hidden dangers somewhere.
"Senior, you said you've been here before and knocked over the immortal artifact 'Fortune Furnace', but what kind of danger did you encounter that made you do this?"
I was bored on the way, so I asked the questions in my mind.
The mysterious elder shook his head and said, "I don't know what that monster is. To put it simply, it should be considered a ball of air, a ball of living air. That ball of air is very repulsive to spiritual energy, so when I came here in the ancient times, I was attacked by that ball of air as soon as I entered the Temple of Light."
The Temple of Light is the golden palace we just saw.
"And I also found that using spiritual energy to attack that ball of air did not hurt it at all. Helplessly, I could only shuttle back and forth inside the Hall of Light. Fortunately, I found the Creation Furnace and hid inside it."
"But that ball of energy had already sensed my presence. It was like a creature waiting for its prey by a tree, waiting inside the Creation Furnace. I stayed in the Creation Furnace for hundreds of years. Finally, I was upset and wanted to get out. But I was no match for that ball of energy. So, I thought of overturning the Creation Furnace."
"I didn't expect that the green flame in the divine furnace could actually burn that ball of air. It was with this opportunity that I managed to escape from the Land of Compassion. But although I escaped, I was seriously injured."
"Also, I want to tell you that although this Land of Compassion is a treasure trove of immortals, it's not just that ball of air that's dangerous. There are other dangerous things as well. We must be careful with it."
"Yes, senior, we understand."
Taring and I answered in unison.
“Crunch!”
My feet made a dry sound when they stepped on the snow. Although the sound was not loud, it would definitely be heard clearly by people with Taoism or creatures.
"That won't work, Yang. You have to gather the fireball technique on your feet. I remember I taught you this technique before. Only by wrapping your feet with the fireball technique can you step on the snow without making any sound. Otherwise, it may cause unnecessary trouble."
I understood what the mysterious senior meant. So I used the fireball technique, and the spiritual energy created fireballs, which kept coming out.
Beating in my palm.
I pointed my finger and the fireball flew towards my feet as if it had life.
I cast a few spells on the fireball.
Suddenly, the fireball turned into a line of fire, wrapping around my feet. Although the flames were not very strong, they still had a strong burning effect on the purple snow. After all, it was stimulated by spiritual energy.
Soon, I discovered that with every step I took, the snow on the ground melted quickly without making any "crunching" sound.
This made me happy. It seems that even a small Taoist technique still has its own magical uses.
And I discovered that the ground of the Land of Compassion was white. To be more precise, the soil was white.
White soil, red sun, crimson blood, black wind of annihilation, golden palace... Wow, it's so colorful.
Xianzang is Xianzang, it is extremely weird.
Because the mysterious senior is a shadow and the tower spirit is a spirit, he does not step on the ground and therefore does not make any sound.
So I was the only one controlling the fire line to move forward.
As we walked, we came to a small hill.
When they were about to go down, the mysterious senior suddenly shouted, "Oh no, there's something going on ahead, let's hide first."
There is something going on, why didn’t I notice it
But since the mysterious senior said so, Ta Ling and I followed his lead and hid. We hid in a recess in the snow, trying our best to hide our bodies with the crimson-purple snow.
After about a few minutes, there was indeed some movement ahead.
A furry blue creature appeared in front.
But when I saw the creature, I was shocked and helpless. The creature was said to be blue, but it looked like a rabbit.
One rabbit can't do any harm.
"Senior, this..." I said helplessly.
But before I could finish, the mysterious senior interrupted me and said, "Don't make any noise, just watch."
I just curled my lips and settled down.
And the scene at the next moment was incredible to me.
The blue rabbit was digging its way across the ground, pushing away the purple snow. On that white land, there was actually a lot of bright green vegetation growing.
The leaves of the plant were slightly curled, but they emitted energy fluctuations. It seemed that the plant should be something similar to a fairy grass.
Just as the blue rabbit was devouring the fresh green plants bit by bit, suddenly, a black shadow appeared behind it.
The black shadow exuded ray of Hongmeng Qi, and the density of Hongmeng Qi surprised me.
From my perception, that black shadow is definitely much more powerful than me.
The black shadow slowly revealed its shape, and it turned out to be a monster similar to a leopard.
The monster had spots all over its body, just like a leopard in the human world. But unlike a leopard in the human world, this leopard had long, protruding canine teeth.
Also, although the leopard's tail is short, it has sharp hairs like steel needles. The leopard's eyes are white, the same color as the land of the Land of Compassion.
The leopard crawled for a while, and when it found the right opportunity, it pounced on the blue rabbit in an instant.
The rabbit was swallowed by the leopard before it even noticed anything, and even the bones and hair were not spit out. It really felt like eating a person without spitting out the bones.
After eating the rabbit, the black shadow leopard released the Hongmeng Qi to the outside, and the golden Hongmeng Qi enveloped it.
Its
A long black tongue stretched out of his mouth and licked his lips, looking as if he was still unsatisfied.
Damn, the creatures in this land of compassion completely subverted my understanding.
The black leopard looked around and sniffed the ground as if it had discovered something, looking around from time to time.
After a while, perhaps because it did not notice any danger, it lazily lay down on the white ground arched out by the blue rabbit.
I couldn't help but frown and thought, this black leopard is blocking our way.
Unexpectedly, this seemingly lifeless place of compassion is home to such terrifying creatures.
I looked at the mysterious senior with doubt and worry.
The mysterious senior knew I was looking at him, so he lowered his voice and said, "You guys stay here first, I'll go take care of that monster."
I originally thought that the mysterious senior wanted to take us on a detour to the Temple of Light, but I didn't expect that he wanted to attack directly.
But it’s not bad either. Since the mysterious man wants to take action, he should have a way to kill the leopard.
The mysterious senior usually doesn't take action, but I would like to see what he is capable of.
However, what surprised me was that after the mysterious senior left us, he did not rush towards the black shadow leopard.
Just when Ta Ling and I were extremely puzzled and full of doubts, the mysterious senior came back.
At the same time, I noticed that he was holding a blue rabbit in his hand.
"Senior, what are you doing?"
I couldn't help but ask, I felt that the mysterious senior was getting scared.
But I’m a little confused.
The mysterious elder smiled knowingly and said without reservation: "My current strength is not a match for that monster, so I can only lure the tiger away from the mountain. Otherwise, it will block us in front and we will not be able to reach the Temple of Light."
Okay, I understand, he really gave in.
Ta Ling and I looked at each other with strange expressions. But it was reasonable to use this method to deal with the black shadow leopard. At least, we should not suffer any damage.
The blue rabbit was caught in the hand of the mysterious man's shadow and was silent.
The mysterious senior cast a spell at the blue rabbit, and suddenly, a stream of blood flowed out of the blue rabbit's body, and a bloody smell appeared.
At the same time, the mysterious senior controlled the spiritual energy, rolled up the blue rabbit and threw it a long distance away.
The spiritual energy that enveloped the blue rabbit dispersed with a muffled "bang" sound, and immediately streams of blood filled the air.
We are still hiding in our current position, but the blue rabbit has been thrown several hundred meters away.
As soon as the smell of blood appeared, I noticed that the black leopard suddenly opened its eyes. It looked around with a grim look, then sniffed. After finding nothing unusual, its body rushed towards the blue rabbit like a gust of wind.
"Let's go, hurry up, let's get there quickly." The mysterious senior reminded.
We didn't dare to delay and quickly got down the hill.
I breathed a sigh of relief only after walking a few hundred meters. When I looked back, the black leopard didn't catch up with us, which meant it didn't discover us.
"Senior, what on earth was that monster leopard just now?" I asked.
The mysterious senior stood in front of me and Ta Ling with his hands behind his back and said, "I don't know. The things in the Immortal Treasure are mostly different from those in the ancient times, the new world outside, and the creatures in the underworld. If you want to ask for its name, I can't tell you. I can only call that monster 'leopard' for the time being."
