Fire Monster

Chapter 248 Blue Snow
At this moment, Zhao Guanshan's heart gradually calmed down.

But it is not the same calm as before, not as still water, not without waves, not quiet and silent, not forcibly ended, not relying on the subjective consciousness of "quiet" to make oneself quiet.

It is a detached, disengaged and transcendent overlooking view.

He could hear his own thoughts like the sound of pages turning, and he could see his own ideas like shooting stars across the sky.

He could see his own joy, excitement, sadness, grief, tension, fear and many other complex and delicate emotions.

Every emotion is like a river, colorful, flowing and meandering, occasionally converging together, occasionally separating, occasionally merging, occasionally disappearing, sometimes wild and hot, sometimes sensitive and humble, sometimes selfless and happy, sometimes calm and composed.

This is who he is.

It is no longer a reflection in a mirror, nor is it a physical body composed of a head, torso, limbs, skin, internal organs, flesh, blood, and bones. This him is his consciousness.

Zhao Guanshan watched calmly, looking at himself as if he was looking at a whole new universe.

At first he wanted to find some reason, some pattern, but later he simply stopped caring.

He followed his thoughts, turning the pages like a book, rustling.

Watching your thoughts, like shooting stars, like rosy clouds, like lightning, passing by and blooming uncontrollably.

In the stream of emotions, he didn't know whether he was chasing these emotions or these emotions were walking with him.

The only thing that surprised him was that this spiritual world seemed to resonate with him, many, many resonances, too many to count.

There are evil, vicious, cunning, and indifferent ones.

There are also passionate, cunning, kind and warm ones.

This feeling is extremely wonderful.

If I can describe it.

Thoughts are sails, ideas are oars, and emotions are boats, wandering on the boundless ocean of the spiritual world.

There is a bright moon in the sea, there is a bright pearl in the sea, the stars are reflected in the sea, but there is no me in the sea.

Inadvertently, Zhao Guanshan seemed to have caught a glimpse of another level of the spiritual world, or perhaps it was something that had happened in the past, in extremely ancient times, when ancestors had walked through here.

The road was long and seemed to have no end. The ancestors walked in silence without saying a word, without looking back or raising their heads. They were like prisoners of this world, their whole bodies numb and sinking, with no hope in sight.

Then, ancestors continued to fall silently in the team, and the number of ancestors in the team became fewer and fewer, but the pace of advancement never stopped.

The fallen ancestors died and rotted, their flesh and blood turned into soil, their bones turned into mountains, some were lying flat, some were lying on their sides, some were curled up, or some were left with only a head.

The scene gradually faded away, and snowflakes began to fall from the dim sky.

Zhao Guanshan had seen blue snow more than once, and he knew that Cang Yunzi relied on collecting blue snow to refine the Xiaohuandan.

So, he made a choice, and from the countless things that responded to him and resonated with him, he chose to resonate with the blue snow.

The moment he made his choice, this magical and mysterious journey came to an end.

Zhao Guanshan woke up from that mysterious state. He knew he had experienced it, but he couldn't describe it. He knew that this was a great opportunity created by him accidentally getting rid of his own evil thoughts, but it could not be replicated.

Being able to resonate with Lan Xue was his only gain from this great opportunity.

The blue snowflakes are very small and there are very few of them. They seem to be falling from the sky, but in fact only a few of them can fall down, and many of them are scattered before they fall.

Zhao Guanshan didn't know what this blue snowflake was, but he seemed to have reached some kind of contract with this wonderful substance. A blue snowflake could fall accurately into the palm of his hand.

One piece, two pieces, three or four pieces.

There were nine pieces of blue snow in total, and then there was nothing. The snow stopped and disappeared.

And these nine pieces of blue snow would not melt in the palm of his hand. They were so crystal clear and beautiful, like mysterious talismans, flowing with mysterious power.

Zhao Guanshan held it carefully. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. He blew gently. The nine blue snowflakes fluttered up like dandelions, but they did not float away. Instead, they combined into a strange piece of nail in mid-air, the size of a fingernail.

Then, the blue armor plate automatically stuck to the center of his eyebrows and disappeared.

At the same time, a cool breath rushed in, making him feel inexplicably at peace.

"It feels like this is really a piece of armor. Can it be combined into a suit of armor?"

Zhao Guanshan was very surprised. Although he still didn't know why, he could clearly know that this armor plate was providing him very good protection.

"Unfortunately, it's a bit difficult to resonate blue snowflakes."

"Do I need to kill another evil thought before I can enter this state?"

While he was thinking, Zhao Guanshan suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps, and at the same time, Yu Huan's figure unconsciously emerged in his mind. The key point was that the cloak on her body seemed to be transparent, allowing him to sense Yu Huan's extremely slender figure...

What the hell?

Zhao Guanshan was greatly surprised, not only because there was a distance of forty or fifty meters between them, but also because Yu Huan was not an ordinary person, especially since he was in spirit form, which should have been the most difficult to detect.

As a result, even her spiritual weapon cloak was seen through.

"Sin, sin, sin!"

Zhao Guanshan was quite embarrassed, and soon, Yu Huan's voice rang out from outside. "Daoyou Chengfeng! It's time to set off."

Zhao Guanshan stood up and put on the eight spiritual weapons.

These are a helmet, a half-body armor, a pair of combat boots, in addition there is a long knife, a long sword, a round shield, a longbow and two feather arrows.

When I walked out of the house, I saw Yu Huan waiting there quietly, holding her spiritual weapon longbow in her hand, obviously ready for battle.

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist Yu, what is our mission this time?"

Zhao Guanshan asked casually, seeming to realize it a little late.

Yu Huan chuckled.
"Fellow Daoist Chengfeng, don't worry. Although this trip has certain risks, Captain Ding is still very confident. Now, please follow me."

Having said this, Yu Huan brought Zhao Guanshan to the Demon-Suppressing Tower in the center of the square. Here, Ding Daoren and others had already arrived, no more, no less, exactly thirteen people.

"Now that everyone is here, I will begin."

Ding Daoren spoke very solemnly. He took out a strange long incense stick and inserted it in front of the Demon-Suppressing Tower without lighting it. Afterwards, there was no change. The long incense stick actually ignited by itself without fire.

"Everyone, this is the incense made from spirit ashes. It can prevent the loss of personal belongings when you die in battle. However, this incense is limited, and each person is only allowed to keep three items."

After Ding Daoren finished speaking, he took out his Dao Jade, a bag of spiritual ash, and a long sword with a +6 enhancement. He paused it for a while above the spiritual incense, and immediately a wisp of light mist could be seen lingering.

It's amazing.

Zhao Guanshan then understood that he was not the only one who was afraid of the spiritual weapon falling. It could be said that with this spiritual incense, everyone would be less likely to act like a slacker.

At this time, everyone stepped forward one by one.

Each person has three items, which are basically a Taoist jade + a bag of spiritual ash + a spiritual weapon.

Zhao Guanshan was the last in line and also took out the Asking Jade, the Spirit Ashes Bag and a random long sword spiritual weapon.

In fact, he has two more valuable spiritual weapons on him, one is a green leaf jade pendant with a +5 enhancement, and the other is a flame inner armor with a +5 enhancement.

The reason why the former is not brought out is because it is meaningless.

If he hadn't died, the green leaf jade pendant would naturally have been preserved, but if he had died, it must have been consumed long ago after a tough battle.

As for the latter, he couldn't possibly take off all his clothes in public, could he?

In this way, Ding Daoren led the way, and a group of thirteen people quickly walked out of the Skull Mountain and headed in a certain direction.

"Fellow Daoist Yu Huan, please lead fellow Daoist Cheng Feng to explore the way ahead."

"it is good!"

Yu Huan stood out from the crowd gracefully, her steps brisk as a breeze. No wonder she was always asked to be a scout.

But Zhao Guanshan was also regarded as a scout. Was it because his name was Zhao Chengfeng?

Following behind Yu Huan, he quietly took out the Jade of Questioning Dao and probed into it with a little thought. Suddenly, a very detailed map appeared in front of him, but it was limited to an area of ​​500 miles. If he wanted to see more, he would have to invest more mental energy.

So, the next second, Zhao Guanshan saw the Skull Mountain that left him with a deep memory, the one with the rotten giant, which was about a thousand miles away, located to the east of the Cangwu Taoist Palace stronghold. But now, their group was heading west.

On this Jade Map, it can be clearly seen that there is also a Skull Mountain about 700 to 800 miles to the west. But the magical thing is that at this moment, there is a small glittering dot on the outskirts of this Skull Mountain...

"Fellow Daoist Chengfeng, turn off the Dao Jade. I forgot to tell you that when you are out on a mission, only Team Ding is qualified to use the Dao Jade. Otherwise, if too many Dao Jade are activated, it will attract powerful lone spirit demons. In the spirit world, there are dangers everywhere."

"Being overly dependent on the Daoyu Jade is not a good thing."

Yu Huan suddenly warned.

Zhao Guanshan nodded and accepted the advice, agreeing with it deeply.

However, Yu Huan's steps were so fast that he was almost jogging. After the two of them ran in front for a while, they could no longer see Ding Daoren and the others.

Yu Huan had no intention of stopping, nor did he scout the surroundings. He just jogged all the way until nightfall, and ran almost six hundred miles before he stopped and praised Zhao Guanshan.

"Not bad, I thought you wouldn't be able to keep up."

Zhao Guanshan smiled naively. He had really thought that he would not be able to keep up. Anyway, he would not use the spiritual energy in the green leaf jade pendant. As a result, every time his spiritual power was consumed by half, he felt a chill between his eyebrows, and new spiritual power would be silently generated. So his current condition was surprisingly very good.

"Fellow Daoist Yu, Captain Ding and the others won't get separated in the back, right?"

"Of course not. In fact, they have been following us ten miles behind us. What's the point of such a long-distance raid? If you don't have this ability, what's the point of being a witcher?"

"The place ahead is where we will meet up with the people from Zhenhai Dao Palace, but I will take you to earn some spiritual ashes first."

At this moment, Yu Huan casually grabbed a handful of sand and gently sprinkled it in the air, emitting a variety of light, slow, fast and slow syllables from his mouth, as if he was whistling.

After blowing for about ten seconds, she suddenly drew the bow quickly and shot three arrows in an instant!

Zhao Guanshan didn't even see clearly what was happening. Two or three hundred meters away, a hideous and strange scorpion monster let out a roar, jumped out from under the sand, twitched continuously, and died in the blink of an eye.

"Go ahead, this is for you. And help me pick up the arrow."

Yu Huan said lightly, full of style.
