Chapter 454 Space Beast
The forbidden area of the imperial tomb is a special space near the Imperial City of Beihan Kingdom. It is said that the sealing power here has a long history and is closely related to the extreme cold atmosphere here.
This special seal makes this imperial tomb more special. Although the energy of heaven and earth here is particularly strong, the closed environment here can greatly prevent the cultivators from communicating with the power of the laws of heaven and earth, so it is almost impossible to practice and advance here.
In addition, it is said that when staying in the imperial tomb, the life span can be slightly increased, especially for high-level monks who have fewer life spans. After coming to the imperial tomb, they can extend their life span for decades or even two or three hundred years. Therefore, the Northern Emperors of all dynasties chose to come here to meditate when their life span was not much, and finally sit here.
"The imperial tomb has seven layers of space. Each layer's sealing power is getting stronger and stronger, and the ice cold power is getting stronger. Ice Jade Cervical is the most likely to appear in the seventh floor space with the strongest ice cold power." Mu Li explained to Li Muran in detail: "Prince of the Northern Emperor should have the ability to directly let me go to the seventh floor space, but this will reduce many challenges; so we are just teleported to the first floor space and need to walk in layer by layer by layer."
"No further ado, let's go to the entrance of the second floor as soon as possible." Li Muran said: "Young Master, do you know where the entrance of the second floor is?"
Mu Li smiled and said, "Gao Wei is not an outsider. He knows your relationship with me, so Senior Brother Zhao just uses the old name. As for the entrance to the second floor, it is very strange. Let me keep it a secret first, and Senior Brother Zhao will know soon."
Li Muran nodded. He knew very little about the imperial tomb, but Mu Li, as the prince of the King of Chu, could naturally find out more information.
Gao Wei summoned the seventh-level snow spirit fox king and said, "This snow spirit fox king was lent to Gao by the third sister. It has a relatively sensitive sense of smell and should be able to lead us to find the second floor entrance as soon as possible."
"In addition, Young Master Li is also a cultivator with the innate extreme cold light. He is very sensitive and meticulous in sensing the power of ice cold. Maybe he can detect the breath of the second entrance within a distance. Otherwise, the entrance will be erratic and will not be easy to hit it."
"The breath of the entrance? It's erratic?" Li Muran was stunned, "Is the entrance a living thing? It actually has a special aura?"
Li Muran was surprised when suddenly Mu Li looked moved and his eyes were filled with joy.
"Haha, I'm lucky. There is an entrance in the ice valley ahead." Mu Li said happily, then his body shook and turned into a cold light and shot towards the ice valley.
Li Muran and Gao Wei immediately followed closely behind. Mu Li flew extremely fast, and Gao Wei was only barely thrown away with all his strength. He found that Li Muran could actually chase him and not fall.
"Is it because Fellow Daoist Zhao who has practiced the technique that can improve escape skills?" Gao Wei was very surprised. Generally speaking, the speed of escape is directly related to the level of cultivation. The higher the cultivation level, the faster the escape speed. He and Mu Li are both late-stage cultivators in the Dharma Status. The speed of escape should be much higher than Li Muran in the middle-stage Dharma Status, but Li Muran can follow closely, which does not seem too difficult.
However, there are endless various martial arts in the world of immortal cultivation, and there are a few of them that can improve escape skills. In Gao Wei's view, Li Muran has mostly practiced one of them. How could he know that although Li Muran is a mid-stage cultivator in the Dharma Act, his magic power is no longer inferior to that of the late-stage cultivator in the Dharma Act, and is even much higher than ordinary late-stage cultivators in the Dharma Act. With such a deep magic power, Li Muran's flying speed has naturally greatly improved. It is not difficult to keep up with Gao Wei and others.
The three of them were extremely fast, and soon they turned into three rays of escape lights and fell into the ice valley one after another.
"There is a monster here." Li Muran immediately saw a transparent monster in the Ice Valley. The beast was made of ice, transparent and crystal clear, with a height of seven or eight feet. It was like a tiger and leopard, but it had transparent wings and an ice cone-like horn.
Li Muran soon discovered that the monster was a little unusual. He said in shock: "Strange, the aura of this monster is very strange."
"Haha, Senior Brother Zhao also noticed the abnormality?" Mu Li smiled, "In fact, it is the entrance to the second floor.
"This beast is the entrance?" Li Muran was stunned.
"Yes," Mu Li explained: "The power of the space seal here is very special. It can transform into various monster forms and become a space beast. Once the space beast is killed, it will be knocked back to its original form and form a short space channel, allowing us to enter the sealed space."
"In other words, there should be at least dozens of second-level space beasts in this first layer of space. As long as you defeat it, you can enter the second-level space. If you want to enter the third-level space beast, you must find the third-level space beast transformed into the entrance of the third layer in the second layer, and then you can defeat it and enter the third layer."
"So, it is not an easy task to enter the seventh floor. You need to defeat six space beasts, including the second to seventh floors, along the way. The space power of each floor is stronger, and the space beasts transformed will become even more terrifying."
Li Muran suddenly realized when he heard this. He nodded and said, "So that only the strongest cultivators can defeat those space beasts as quickly as possible, enter the seventh level of space, and obtain treasures like Ice Jade Chopin, so as to stand out from the crowd. Well, the assessment method chosen by the senior Northern Emperor is indeed relatively fair. It also greatly avoids internal strife among the princes."
"That's true," Mu Li said: "The space channel formed by the space beast being knocked back to its original form is very short, and only three or four people can be allowed to pass through. Therefore, the primary task of each prince is to lead the left and right guardians to defeat the space beasts and break into the seventh floor. There is no direct conflict between each other and there is no chance of cooperation."
Li Muran asked with a moving heart: "If the space beast is knocked back to its original form, how long will it be able to evolve and reborn again?"
"It takes a long time to be as short as one day, and as many as several days." Mu Li said, "So, I have to hurry in front of everyone as soon as possible, so that it will be easier to find the space beast. Otherwise, if the number of space beasts is limited and others are able to climb first, we will have to wait for the new space beast to transform into it before entering the next level."
"Since that's the case, let's take action now. This second-level space beast has limited strength. Please save your energy and leave it to your subordinates to deal with it." Gao Wei volunteered.
"Okay, hurry up and decide." Mu Li nodded.
Gao Wei received the order, and immediately sacrificed a three-pointed, two-edged cold halberd. This is a fifth-level magic weapon and also Gao Wei's natal magic weapon.
Gao Wei held the cold halberd and flew to the second-level space beast, then danced the cold halberd into a cold light.
Each cold light turned into a sharp ice skate and slashed densely at the space beast.
The space beast roared, and a large amount of white cold air suddenly ejected from its mouth, which immediately freezes the surroundings, forming a piece of solid ice.
The ice skates that Gao Wei slashed out were blocked and resolved by simply shaving some ice chips, and they could not harm the second-level space beast at all.
Gao Wei was stunned. The strength of this level 2 space beast was obviously beyond his expectations. He knew that it was not appropriate to go, so he immediately stimulated the cold light magic phase with all his strength and integrated into his natal cold halberd. The cold halberd immediately slashed towards the level 2 space beast with an astonishing momentum.
"Bang bang bang" Wherever the Han Ji passed, he cut all the ice into pieces. When he was about to reach the second-level space beast, the beast suddenly opened its mouth and then bit the Han Ji tightly.
Its ice teeth and the cold air in its mouth also freeze the cold halberd.
Gao Wei's face changed, and he hurriedly urged his natal magic weapon, but the latter was just trembling slightly in the mouth of the space beast and could not be taken back at all.
"The power of ice cold is so strong," Li Muran said in his heart, and then said loudly: "Highly Protector, I'll help you."
As he said that, Li Muran sacrificed the Kanglong stick, and a golden light flashed on his body to stimulate the Qilin Dharma image.
Then, Li Muran flashed to the space beast. He secretly used all his strength to penetrate into the Kanglong stick in his hand, and integrated the Qilin magic image into the stick.
Then, Li Muran slashed it with one stick.
Layers of golden kirin stick shadows fell down like hills, hitting heavily on the body of the second-level space beast.
"Bang"
The layers of ice were immediately smashed, and the body of the second-level space beast was smashed into a large area, turning into countless ice chips. The ice chips quickly turned into invisible cold air and returned to the nearby space.
When the second-level space beast was smashed by Li Muran, he naturally could not trap Gao Wei's magic weapon anymore. Gao Wei took the opportunity to break free from the second-level space beast's mouth and then continued to fight against the second-level space beast.
The cold halberd was very sharp, and in a moment it cut the seriously injured space beast into several large ice cubes.
"Bang bang bang"
These ice cubes actually exploded one after another, turning into countless cold air, filling the nearby space.
The second-level space beast was defeated. After it dissipated and disappeared, the cold air actually gathered together on its own, forming a layer of cold light curtain with sparkling light.
This light curtain is shaking, obviously it cannot last long
"Go away quickly" Mu Li greeted and rushed into the cold light curtain first. Li Muran and Gao Wei also immediately entered the light curtain.
The three of them disappeared here immediately. After one or two breaths, the cold light curtain shattered and completely dissipated into ordinary cold air.
Li Muran and others felt a flash in front of them, and then they appeared in another snowy and ice.
"Is this the second floor of space? Sure enough, the power of ice cold is even greater," said Li Muran. He sensed the howling wind here, and the power of ice cold is even more harsh.
"Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Zhao helped him, otherwise Gao would not be able to kill the second-level space beast at one time. If it was delayed and Young Master Li was ruined, it would be a big deal," Gao Wei said with a red face.
