Ice Fantasy Chapter 12: Snow Country (7)

We stood at the gate of Zongtian Palace, Xing Gui said: Wang, let's go in now, Xing Zhou probably doesn't know we've arrived yet, if Luna secretly carries out the assassination, it should be successful.

Luna walked over, hugged the transparent circular barrier outside Xinggui, and said: Xinggui, don't worry, I will use my assassination technique to kill the person who caused you pain.

Then a faint voice suddenly sounded above our heads, that voice said: Luna, you'd better come to see me directly, otherwise you will be like your sister who doesn't even know how she died. Ka Suo, I respectfully call you King. In order not to let you get lost, I will tell you the path to meet me. The place where you are standing now is the Xing Lei Sacrifice Platform. Just go straight and turn left at the second intersection you meet. You can see me now. Wang, I'll wait for you there... Sharp and cracked laughter began to sound from all around, and it didn't even help to cover your ears. That kind of laughter still easily entered the brain and resounded back and forth, which made people feel very uncomfortable. And when I looked back at Xing Gui, I realized why Xing Zhou was laughing, because Xing Gui was already unconscious in the protective barrier, and the white blood spurting out of her mouth had already stained most of her astrology robe . And the corner of Huang Tuo's mouth also began to flow out of blood. He knelt on the ground with one foot, stretched his hands behind him like a flying snowbird, and he was doing his best to maintain the protective barrier around the star trail. But the barrier had begun to become thinner and smaller. I saw Huang Tuo's brows furrowed tightly, and his body began to shake obviously.

The laughter suddenly disappeared, just as suddenly and elusively as when it sounded. The voice said: Ka Suo, come and see me, I am the Xing Zhou you are looking for, the guardian of the north, the greatest astrologer in the Magic Snow Mountain. I'm waiting for you on the Zongxing Throne... It seems that Xingzhou has been clear about our actions for a long time, and we underestimated Xingzhou's ability. Pianfeng said while looking at the towering Xuanlei Sacrifice Platform. The wind was blowing in all directions of Zongtian Temple, and the hair and illusion robes of each of us were blown and fluttered like banners.

Moon God said: Our actions are under the control of Xing Zhou, it seems that we have no choice but to listen to her.

Xing Gui raised his head from the protective barrier and said to me: Wang, I didn't expect Xing Zhou's ability to be so powerful, it's not something I can fight against. Wang, I'm sorry... Liao Jian walked over, knelt down, put his face on the barrier around Xinggui, and said to her: Xinggui, no one will blame you, sleep well, I won't let anything happen to you .

When Xing Zhou appeared in front of us, Xing Gui and Huang Tuo had passed out on the ground, and Huang Tuo's protective barrier was consumed until only a few fragments remained. As for Xing Gui, he fell to the ground long ago and lost all consciousness. When we walked from the Xinglei Sacrifice Platform to the Zongxing Throne, Xingzhou's spiritual power became stronger and stronger, and the impact on Xinggui became more and more serious, and Huang Tuo became less and less able to support the protective barrier. Xing Gui resisted the severe pain of being torn apart, her lips were bitten so that blood flowed out, I saw Liao Jian's hand was tightly clenched, and white joints could be seen.

Kaso, you are here. When Xing Zhou spoke to me, I couldn't see her lips moving at all, I only heard her voice coming from an unknown place in the empty hall, as if in a dream. I just hope that Xing Zhou doesn't manipulate the dream to control them, because I saw a trance expression on the faces of Pian Feng and Liao Jian. However, Luna was not affected in any way, because those assassination techniques were easily resolved for her. Luna's expression was dignified and full of murderous intent, and I saw the moonlight in her hand gradually condense into an ice sword.

Xing Zhou's voice appeared again, and she said: Moon God, I know you want me to see the moonlight in your hand, and I also know that your real killing move is not the ice sword. You will throw the ice sword at me immediately after the attack, and then you will use the moment when I block the ice sword, add the poison of peacock gall to the illusion to manipulate the wind and snow to surround me, and I will not be able to move, otherwise, once I touch those With the wind and snow swirling around me, those poisons will enter my body. And if I don't move, your Moonlight Blade will drive straight in. Am I right, Luna?

I saw Luna's calm expression, but she still couldn't hide the frightened expression in her eyes. Xing Zhou's expression was still weird and in a trance, ethereal like a dream.

I feel hopeless for the first time. Ever since I entered the Magic Snow Mountain, from Feng Tian, ​​Qing Ren to Die Che, I have never felt so hopeless. Xing Zhou can read everyone's thoughts, so all attacks are useless to her. I don't know how to beat her.

I looked at Luna, and she looked at me, and I knew she wanted me to do it together, so I nodded.

But right away I found that even if I joined hands with Luna, we would still be impossible to defeat Xing Zhou. Every attack of ours was predicted by her in advance, the direction of our shots, illusion, and even the speed of our shots were all predicted by Xing Zhou to score exactly.

Luna and I fell to the ground, Xing Zhou's smile was still vague and ethereal, like a black mandala flower in the mist, with a sinking and trance fragrance, but dangerous and deadly.

Ka Suo, it is impossible for you to revive your brother, you can't even get through the Zongtian Xuanwu Temple, let alone the Western Realm after me. It's better to let you die here, and the spiritual power of Zongtian Temple will increase again.

Then I saw a ball of light with changing brilliance appearing in Xing Zhou's hand, I knew that it was a dream unique to the Xingxiu tribe, both Xing Jiu and Xing Gui had used it before. I know that as long as Luna and I go into that dream, we will never wake up again.

But I don't have any strength to resist anymore, and my spiritual power dissipates as quickly as the fog under the red sun. I looked at Luna, she fell to the ground and looked at me, I saw the despair in her eyes.

Just when I was about to fall into a dream, a sudden gust of bitter wind pierced the air from behind, and then countless sharp icicles flew over my shoulders, and I heard the dull sound of icicles piercing flesh and blood .

I raised my head, Xing Zhou opened her mouth wide, with an expression of disbelief in her eyes, but the blood continued to flow out along the icicles that penetrated her chest, dripping down on the Zong Xing Throne drop by drop.

I turned around and saw Pianfeng standing behind me, eyes closed, tears pouring out of his eyes. Huang Tuo fell to the ground, and in front of him was Xinggui lying in a pool of blood, with his hair loose and his eyes open, looking at the sky above Zongtian Temple, his face was expressionless, empty and numb.

Suddenly a strange smile appeared on Xing Zhou's face, and her voice was still elusive. She said: Although you have passed the Northern Zongtian Temple, you will never be able to pass the domain of the Western Dharma Protector, because the Western Dharma Protector... … Before Xing Zhou finished speaking, sharp barbs suddenly grew out of every ice sword piercing through her chest, and I heard the sound of Xing Zhou's body shattering. It turned out that the illusion that defeated her was not a simple ice blade, but a gradual ice curse. After the first attack was successful, new ice swords would grow on those ice swords and launch a second attack. This kind of magic is usually used against people whose spiritual power is much higher than their own, because this illusion is too much spiritual power, and in a sense, they all die together. It's just that I don't know how Xinggui, who is an astrologer, can use the high-level magic of the Ice Clan illusionist. In fact, I really wanted Xing Zhou to finish speaking, but she couldn't say a word anymore, her body fell to the ground, and the expression on her face was still weird and vague. I have a vague feeling that she knows something secret, but can't capture exactly what.

I buried Xing Gui behind Zongtian Temple, on the hillside covered with cherry blossoms and irises, Liao Jian used his sword to dig a grave for Xing Gui, although he didn't say anything, but I saw him Tears fell one by one into the black soil that buried the star tracks. After the tomb was dug, Liao Jian's sword had already been cracked by the hard rocks in the ground. He picked up Xing Gui, put her in, and covered the black soil to Xing Gui with handfuls of hands. body. When I saw the dirt bury Xinggui's frail body, a huge hole suddenly appeared in my heart, falling down endlessly, my brain felt dizzy and painful, and my temples seemed to be covered with very bright The tiny rays of light felt like a dull pain.

Luna stood at the farthest point, under a cherry blossom tree, the wind blew her hair and robe, and Huang Tuo stood beside her, also silent and did not speak. Sitting in front of Xinggui’s grave, Chao Ya began to play the requiem of the Wuyue clan. I know it is the greatest Wuyue music of the Wuyue clan. Play the Requiem. Because the Requiem will consume a lot of spiritual power of the witch musician, and the listener will have an immortal soul after death.

That night I heard Liao Xi's desolate and majestic voice again, floating brokenly above the Zongtian Temple. A lot of astrologers came out. They stood on the towers of Zongtian Temple and looked at us without saying a word. I know that many of them are members of the former astrologer family, who lived in seclusion in Huanxue Shenshan many years ago. They stood high above the sky, and their robes fluttered like beautiful white lotus flowers. No one spoke, only Liao Chan's singing and Chao Ya's Wu Le floating high above the clouds.

When I was about to fall asleep that night, I suddenly thought of Xing Jiu. I don't know if he had already divined the news of his sister's death in Renxue City, or continued to pray for the star on the altar without knowing it. Xing Gui prayed for blessings, looked at the direction of Huanxue Shenshan every day, and missed Xing Gui's quiet smile. I suddenly felt very sad, but I couldn't express it. So I just fell asleep and waited for the red sun to break and the sky to brighten.

I'm drowning in darkness and don't want to wake up. I don't know if I cried that night, I only know that in the dream I was so depressed, some kind of emotion that I can't describe came up inch by inch from the dark part of my throat, star trails were all in front of me, and finally I lay on the ground, The appearance of lying in a pool of white blood.

I finally know the cause of Xing Zhou's death and the cause of Xing Gui's death. It turns out that Xing Zhou was not killed by Pian Feng, the person who killed Xing Zhou was the weak Xing Gui. Pianfeng said that as soon as he entered the center of the temple, he heard Xinggui talking to him. Xinggui said: Pianfeng, wait a minute, try your best to protect your spiritual power and at the same time pretend to be powerless to resist Xingzhou. When I levitate icicles in the air, please use the fastest wind to pierce them through Xingzhou's body. chest. Because Xing Zhou will think that I have no power to resist under her control, so she will not spend any effort to predict my actions, but the actions of Wang and Luna will be well known by Xing Zhou. Pianfeng, please help me, this is the only way for us to get through Zongtian Temple.

Pianfeng said to me: At that time, I didn't know that the only way Xinggui said was to sacrifice herself, because under Xingzhou's control, Xingyou really had almost no ability to resist, she had to use her spiritual power And especially the offensive illusion, which the Xingxiu clan is not good at, will almost exhaust their spiritual energy. I was just very excited that I could defeat Xing Zhou, but I forgot about Xing Gui's frail body. When I saw that the ice sword pierced into Xing Zhou's chest and branched out into endless thorns, I was as happy as a child. I smiled and went to see Xing Gui, and then saw her lying in a pool of blood, her eyes staring at her. Looking at the sky, expressionless, but as if to say endless words. I just felt that the wind I was manipulating in my hand didn't listen to my call, and dissipated into the surrounding space. I spread my empty palms and wept sadly.

I wrapped my Huangya phantom robe tightly, and the snowflakes around me kept falling on my hair. Since my brother died, I have never used illusion to shield snowflakes, but there has never been a time when snowflakes fell on me. I was so cold that I was wrapped in an illusion robe and did not want to talk. Sorrow is like a dense night, engulfing the whole world blackly from the horizon.

When I left the Northern Territory, Huang Tuo gave me a dream. He told me that Star Trail has left four dreams in total. The first one allows me to open it when I leave the Northern Territory, the second one when I enter the Western Territory, and the third one, which cannot go on without clues and directions. The last one will be opened when I meet the Western Protector.

The magnificence and beauty of the first dream surpassed all my imagination, like the brightest fireworks blooming in the dark blue sky, the light and shadow change, and time flows.

In the dream, Xing Gui has been running freely, although she has never run free in her life. Her smile filled the snow covered with petals of cherry blossoms, Star Trail ran all the way, the petals behind her slowly, slowly, flying up, flying up, up, up... King, forgive me for not being able to walk with you Yes, even though I am very reluctant. My birth was a mistake. I have been a child that my family loves since I was a child. My father and mother always shed tears for me, and I always feel the deepest sadness in my heart when I look at their old faces. And my elder brother Xing Jiu, in my eyes, he is the greatest astrologer, with a big heart and a gentle smile, and endless indulgence and connivance towards me. But my horoscope is destined to be interrupted, and my life will inevitably be interrupted quietly in a morning filled with the fragrance of cherry blossoms or in a dark night shrouded in moonlight. So, I don't think I have any regrets about dying like this. I always need your care on the way. I need Liao Xing to hug me, Huang Tuo to consume spiritual power to make a protective barrier for me, and Pian Feng to manipulate the wind to blow away the dark clouds in the sky for me. Many times I want to be strong so that you don't worry, but I can't, I don't even have the ability to walk.

My lord, I have been staying at the bottom of the Illusory Star Palace since I was born, divining and prophesying the prosperity and disgrace of the entire family. I have never seen the desolation of cherry blossoms withering and the silence of moonset, nor heard the faint sound of a flower blooming. I would love to have a look at the outside world, I want to feel the wind blowing my hair and my robe. King, I am so thankful that you brought me out of the dark altar and into the sunshine during the last days of my life. I saw the majestic city wall of Mietian Temple, heard Chao Ya's melody that moved the sighing wall, and met the **** Xing Zhou of the Xingxiu tribe. Even though I died under her hands, I never complained.

Wang, I can understand your strong and deep feelings for your brother, Li Luo and Lan Shang. When you gave those dreams to Chao Ya in Die Che's palace, I already felt the turbulent emotions in your heart. Wang, I only hope that you can live freely and happily according to your own wishes. I hope that one day, the resurrected Shi Neng will lean over and kiss your eyebrows again, and call you brother, just like I once said to my brother Xing. Same old one. It's just that I can't kiss my brother anymore, Wang, please take care of him for me.

My lord, I can't astrology for you on the road ahead, please go on bravely. In fact, when I was in Die Che's palace, I knew that I would die in Zongtian Temple. At that time, I dared not tell any of you, because fate cannot be changed, so I could only accept it with a smile.

My lord, before I entered the Zongtian Temple, I had divination for you the domain of the Western Dharma Protector, but the astrology is like never before. I don't know if it's because the Western Guardians are particularly powerful or the Western Realm is special, but I can only tell you that the Western Realm is another independent barrier from the Magic Snow Mountain, and the entire barrier is supported by the illusion of the Western Guardians. I can't predict what that world will look like, maybe it's the same magnificent palace as the previous guardians, maybe it's a frozen snowfield, or even a world of the fire tribe, when you kill the Western guardian, his spirit The power will collapse and dissipate, and that world will disappear with it. Then you will see Yuan Ji, the ruler of the Imaginary Snow Mountain.
