In the space, the fire phoenix and the silver fish are talking in circles. However, Lin Luoran has no idea about it and she is hurrying on with her journey in the northeast direction.
The paper crane was destroyed by someone secretly. Lin Luoran continues her flying in the northeast direction that the paper crane headed for before. White Fairy stays by her side. With the help of 10,000-year Hollow Azurite, White Fairy has consolidated its body and soul and fears not of the erosion of turbid Qi in the real world, not to mention in such a place with abundant Reiki like the Green Mountains.
When heads eastward, Lin Luoran doesn’t forget to throw special plants she encountered into the space. Head north, the spring scenery leaves and there is a field full of ice and snow. From the warmth of spring to the chilly icy snowfield, there is no transition at all. The snow and ice line spread to the southwest at a noticeable speed. When Lin Luoran picks up a dead kingfisher frozen in ice, she kind of understands the situation. There is a crisis in the Green Mountains world.
Will the ice and snow seal the entire Green Mountains world?
If the ice and snow continue, no life will survive for sure. The Green Mountains world that the Nine-tailed Fox Family has tried so hard to preserve will end up with a situation not much better than the Earth today.
No wonder the paper crane sent the message saying that the Green Mountains were in danger… but where are cyan little fox and Liao now? What is waiting for her at the endpoint of the snow? Lin Luoran doesn’t want to find a fox that turns into an ice sculpture and Liao who is no longer chattering by the end.
Moving on further, White Fairy next to her can’t hold on. For the first time, Lin Luoran knows that besides fire, souls of departed are also afraid of ice.
“This snow can freeze people’s primordial spirit. Be careful.”
White Fairy’s face turned pale. Lin Luoran’s primordial spirit hiding in the central pubic region hasn’t felt anything different yet. However, White Fairy is directly exposed to the ice and snow with the body of a soul. Its shoulders are covered with ice and snow while its face is covered with frost.
When it is asked to return to the space by Lin Luoran, White Fairy feels its hands and feet have turned stiff.
This strange ice and snow can hurt souls of departed. Lin Luoran shrinks her neck awkwardly. She has to reach the destination as soon as possible before her flesh body can’t stand this.
The blizzard roaring, Lin Luoran speeds up. The white snow is concrete and shows no traces of melting. Lin Luoran’s shoulders and hair quickly become snow-white. She is like a moving snowman now. Lin Luoran witnesses more and more stiff and dead animals along the way. Some low plants on the ground have long been submerged. Only towering trees can stand proudly on the snowy field, keeping their posture in the snow. It is like the Harbin Ice Sculpture Festival before the New Era… However, with a light touch, a towering icy tree falls to the ground and turns into pieces on the snowy field. When it collapses, it is a domino effect. The chain effect makes snow fly above the snowy field. The place which might be a dense forest all collapses.
No one can remember how the frozen plants and animals looked when they were alive. They are all buried in the snow on the ground.
Ice and snow here are really horrible. Lin Luoran feels that her hands and feet are stiff. Her eyelashes are gradually stuck by the falling snow and she can hardly open her eyes.
Fire Meta wanders around, hardly driving away the cold Qi flowing in her meridians. Lin Luoran finally sees an ice mountain far away before her whole body is frozen.
The floating clouds are only halfway up the ice mountain, which shows the height of the mountain. Snow is flaking and dancing for miles and miles. It is reasonable to say that it is also a place of immortals. However, the white clouds halfway up the mountain seem to be frozen by the ice and snow. It looks a bit sluggish and the beautiful scenery has become lifeless.
At the foot of the iceberg, many small flowers are found have not been turned into ice sculptures and swallowed by ice and snow yet. They are crystal and lovely. Lin Luoran is no stranger to them since she once saw them in the remote mountain villages. It’s said that these flowers can realize people’s wishes. However, now they are too fragile to stand up with a little move… They will soon turn into powders in this snowy field—they can’t even save themselves, let alone help others realize their dreams.
Lin Luoran’s spiritual mind expands. The entire ice mountain is silent with no signs of life.
She is kind of disappointed. However, with the state of mind of the Gathering Vitality, she is no longer the little girl who lost her sanity when her impulses got the best of her. Lin Luoran still carefully searches the entire area.
Her spiritual mind explores cautiously. Someone has destroyed the paper crane’s tracing technique and her enemy who has been lurking in the dark has not shown up. This is obviously not a happy thing for her. Wait, there are some abnormal fluctuations after the ice mountain!
Lin Luoran hesitates for a moment, and then she walks away by the wind.
After she disappears in the deep, freezing, and sluggish clouds of the mountain, a jackdaw which was also frozen in ice opens its eyes, squatting among the branches at the foot of the mountain.
The sun shines on the jackdaw’s white eyeballs with a terrifying and strange light.
…
The closer she gets to the top of the mountain, the more frightened Lin Luoran feels. It’s like her soul is about to be frozen. Lin Luoran frowns instinctively. Before reaching the top of the mountain, she changes the route and walks around.
When the fear fades, Lin Luoran feels that she has dodged some unknown dangers.
She goes beyond the ice mountain from one side, and walks in the direction where she previously discovered the fluctuation. On the other side of the ice mountain, there is an endless ice field which looks nothing special.
After Lin Luoran hits a large “ice sculpture tree”, she realizes something and finally finds something wrong.
This ice field is too flat.
Although the snow has covered everything, the ice mountains are rugged and the ground is filled with towering ancient trees and dead animals. Only the spacious ice field that Lin Luoran sees at this moment is as flat as a mirror deliberately polished by a craftsman.
No, it’s not a mirror but a lake!
This was a Lake District?
Lin Luoran feels the fluctuation carefully. Under the thick ice layer, there are indeed fluctuations different from those water Reiki.
“Fire phoenix, is there a way to go down?”
Lin Luoran subconsciously discusses it with fire phoenix. This kind of ice is very difficult to melt even using Meta. She doesn’t expect that fire phoenix will meditate for a while and then nods.
“Water and fire are incompatible. I can’t deal with this, but sister silver fish can help.”
Little silver fish? Lin Luoran has seen the Fire of Nirvana of fire phoenix and the cunning arts of nature of wood wolf. However, based on the deep-rooted first impression of being muddle-headed, little silver fish has never be considered as “powerful” by Lin Luoran.
When Lin is distracted, fire phoenix drags a skeleton out of its room wearing an expression of parting reluctantly with its treasures.
Lin Luoran thinks it is kind of familiar. After thinking for a while, she pats her head. Isn’t it the dragon bone she got in Dongting Dragon Palace? Fire phoenix asked her to give the bone to it but hasn’t done anything to it. She almost forgets it after all these years.
“What is the relationship between dragon bones and silver fish?”
Fire phoenix smiles like a sorcerer, “Haven’t I told you that there is a way for the three of us to get out of the space temporarily?”
Lin Luoran’s eyes flash with flames—she is sure, very sure that fire phoenix hasn’t said anything!
Fire phoenix avoids Lin Luoran gaze which looks like she is going to kill someone. It murmurs with the silver fish. The muddle-headed feeling on the silver fish’s face dissipates a little bit. Trusted by fire phoenix, it nods its head seriously.
The wood wolf moves forward to see what is going on, but it is flapped away by the wings of the fire phoenix.
Lin Luoran feels that fire phoenix becomes very strange after entering the Green Mountains world. This guy would never take the initiative to explain things for her before. When the paper crane technique was destroyed, fire phoenix talked about the old stories voluntarily. It now even tells her that the three residents of the space can go out. Things that Lin Luoran has never thought of come to her one by one. Everything is as strange as the Green Mountains that seem to be swallowed up by ice and snow.
Not until Lin Luoran figures out why the fire phoenix becomes so strange, the silver fish’s half-solidified body has leaped to the dragon bones.
Lin Luoran is dumbfounded. Even White Fairy is not calm any more.
After the little silver fish disappears in the dragon bones, light contracts with the frequency of heartbeat on the skeleton whose age no one knows.
Some flesh and blood appear on the skeleton inexplicably, evolving towards perfection.
Muscles are growing out of white bones?
Lin Luoran has seen many strange things since starting personal ability enhancement. The dragon bone in front of her grows flesh and gradually has a full figure. It is then covered with silver dragon scales and becomes a real dragon. Seeing this scenery by herself, Lin Luoran still secretly pinches her thigh.
Silver dragon opens its eyes. Its eyes are clear but also a little confused. Lin Luoran can’t be more familiar with this kind of look. It is definitely the little silver fish!
Lin Luoran doesn’t understand how the little silver fish merges with the dragon bones. The dragon in front of her is not an illusion spell but with the flesh and blood. White Fairy also cannot find anything wrong.
“Hurry up. Sister Silver Fish won’t keep this long.”
Lin Luoran nods and sits on the dragon’s head, clutching the dragon’s horns with both hands. The huge silver dragon coils its body and takes Lin Luoran pass through the thick misty space.
Lin Luoran is surrounded by the feeling of stickiness and suffocation. She suddenly realizes that even if the silver fish is attached to dragon bones, it is still extremely difficult for it to leave the space. At least, as the space owner, Lin Luoran only has to trigger her spiritual power and she doesn’t have to be so laborious when she enters and exits the space by herself.
Getting rid of the sticky feeling which bounds her, Lin Luoran rides a silver dragon out of space.
The cold air shocks her. Does the blizzard come here again?
Now she is riding on the dragon’s head, hovering far away from the surface of the ice mirror lake and passing by the sluggish floating clouds. Silver dragon looks up to the top of an ice mountain and it seems to notice the abnormality.
“Hold on to dragon horns!”
Lin Luoran squints her eyes. Both the Silver Dragon and she notice something coming at a very fast speed after the raging snowstorm. She doesn’t get much time to think about it. The Silver Dragon hovering in the air has already dived and crashed into the ice surface.
