Half an hour later, ice blocks piled up like mountains in the cave. They were dead snow spirits one after another, and there were many residual limbs and blood foam reflected in the white snow, which was extremely dazzling. When Ye Xiuwen and Tan Zeshan finally ran out of energy, Tan Zeshan chose to self-destruct out of grief and unwillingness, and dozens of snow spirits and a second-level ice scorpion perished in the explosion. Ye Xiuwen tried to use the last trace of Haoran's righteousness to break out, but after using Haoran's righteousness to kill the other two second-level Demon Beasts, he fell to the ground exhausted, and was finally swallowed up by a large number of Demon Beasts that swarmed in, leaving only an empty skeleton with bloodshot eyes.

Cheng Wenming was very frightened, a deep fear arose from deep in his heart. Ye Xiuwen and Tanzeshan were already dead, and he was now avoiding the attack of the Snow Spirit Lord in embarrassment. He could only resort to swimming and fighting. The only reason why the groups of Demon Beast behind him did not pounce on him was because he was afraid that the Snow Spirit Lord might misunderstand that they were competing for food with him, so they just besieged and did not attack.

"Brother Jiang, no, Senior Jiang, I know you are here. We were wrong about what happened before. Please let me go. As long as I can survive, I am willing to pay spiritual stones, many, many spiritual stones, 50,000 yuan, oh, no, 100,000 yuan, okay?" Cheng Wenming asked. He shouted in the open space, changing his previous curses in agreement with Ye and Tan into pleading. In his mind, he had already regarded Li Yan as a Golden Core Realm monk, otherwise how could he leave so easily.

But no matter how much he begged, except for the strange screams of Demon Beast, there was no voice from "Senior Jiang", which made him gradually become irritable.

When Cheng Wenming opened his mouth, even the Snow Spirit Lord, who was constantly attacking him, showed a look of fear. The monk who escaped inexplicably made him feel deeply uneasy. However, no matter how he searched, he could not detect the presence of that person. He had previously been more inclined to believe that the mysterious monk had some kind of protective body Dharma Treasure given by his elders or the sect, so he allowed him to escape.

But the appearance of those ice spikes just now broke his illusion. He also knew that the other party was here and had been secretly observing him. However, the other party had not taken action and seemed unable to kill him, so he did not dare to show up for a while. However, when Cheng Wenming called him "senior" and "you" one after another, he inevitably felt fear in his heart. Could it be that he had really guessed wrong.

"That monk must not have such advanced cultivation. Otherwise, if monk Golden Core Realm wants to kill all Demon Beast and the monks here, it can only be done with a wave of his hand. And when I fought with him before, His spiritual power state is obviously still in a flowing state, rather than the condensed power of monk Golden Core Realm. This is simply the sign of monk Foundation Establishment, but this person has bad intentions in ambushing nearby.

</di>

That is because I want to wait until I have devoured the person in front of me, so that I can capture him while I am weak. Hmm, if that is the case, then he will be captured as well. Although we cannot devour him immediately now, it would be a good thing to seal his cultivation and save it for the future. However, we must solve the matter here quickly now. It has been long enough. Other snow spirit masters may come here at some time. "

Thinking of this, Lord Snow Spirit is no longer afraid. After all, he still firmly believes that Li Yan is not that strong, and he is also a fire-type Divine Ability monk. Although the escape just now is a bit inexplicable, it is just the amulet. The more advanced the amulet, the more restrictions it can use. Otherwise, a monk with a life-protecting amulet can be unscrupulous at the same level.

So he stepped up his attack, and began to unabashedly fly out blue flames from his body. He also let out a low whistle and made a strange syllable. Suddenly, the snow spirits that had been surrounding him started to stir, and they rushed towards Cheng Wenming with blue eyes. Suddenly, in the cave that was not too wide, Cheng Wenming had even less space to move. After holding on for less than five breaths, he was hugged by a snow spirit. Before he used his spiritual power to crush the snow spirit, more snow spirits rushed up like a crowd. Cheng Wenming suddenly lost his mind. In his horrified eyes, a big hand covered his heavenly spirit. Then his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

Master Snow Spirit looked at Cheng Wenming in his hand. After scanning around with a pair of fine eyes, he reached out and made a move. Two Storage Pouchs flew towards him on the ground. The monk Storage Pouchs had different abilities. What a good thing, then he roared and flew away deep into the melting cave. Behind him were the remaining snow spirits and Demon Beast who also followed. As long as Cheng Wenming was captured, he could use the fire spirit. It didn't matter if he had any strength, he just went to his Dantian Zi Fu to get it. However, until he captured Cheng Wenming, the mysterious monk still had no intention of showing up, so the Snow Spirit Master just gave up a little. After thinking about it, it seems that the other party is very good at concealment. In addition, he has a life-saving charm to escape his attack. Now he is afraid of himself. This time, the person is lucky. Then, next, he will go to his secret The hole only needs to devour the spiritual power. There is no point in consuming it here.

Not long after the Snow Spirit Lord left, a blurry figure slowly emerged three hundred feet away from the place where the previous battle took place.

It was just a shadow, of course it was Li Yan. He put his chin on his hand and looked at the remaining bone residue on the ground and the dazzling blood foam erupted from Tanze Mountain on the cave wall. Then he looked at the direction where the Snow Elf Master disappeared, and said to himself, "This Snow Elf Master is really powerful." It's very strong. Even if Cheng Wenming doesn't lose his position, he probably won't be able to hold on for too long in a one-on-one fight. The key is that Cheng Wenming doesn't dare to use the fire element Divine Ability. Failure is doomed, so let's see if there are any advantages."

As his words disappeared, the originally illusory figure became vague again, and then floated in the direction where the Snow Spirit Lord escaped deep in the melting cave. Although "Stealth Night Concealment" is good at hiding his figure, according to Li Yan's current cultivation level, if it is only performed slowly If you move, you can still maintain the best condition, but if you fly quickly, the space fluctuations will be different from the surroundings. However, now all the Demon Beast here have gone with the Snow Spirit Master, and Li Yan is just hanging far behind. The body shape only needs not to be too conspicuous.

Li Yan flew forward like this for seventy miles. Although many snow spirits and other Demon Beasts left one after another along the way, or stayed on the spot, with the cultivation level of these first-level Demon Beasts, when Li Yan passed by them, they just felt a breeze blowing in the cave passage, and they didn't care at all.

At the end, there was only one Demon Beast left in front of the Snow Spirit Master. He was holding the unconscious Cheng Wenming with one hand, and his body became even faster, turning into a fleeting white light, silently, almost blurring into one with the surrounding cave walls. It was obvious that he had raised his speed to the extreme and wanted to avoid something.

Soon, he deviated from the main passage of the cave and drilled towards a thin slit on the side. The gap was extremely small. Compared with the huge body of the Snow Spirit Lord, it seemed so small that even one of his arms could not accommodate it. However, the Snow Spirit Lord disappeared in a flash and disappeared without a trace. After a while, a faint shadow appeared here. The shadow was suspended out of thin air. Looking at the criss-crossing diagonal cracks on one side, they appeared or disappeared.

These thin diagonal cracks are actually everywhere in the melt cave. They are small cracks in the thick snow on the cave wall. Some are straight, and some are diagonally downward. When the thin cracks reach the end, they may branch into thinner diagonal cracks.

Li Yan stretched out a finger and pressed it against a thin slit. With just one finger, his finger turned the slit into a finger hole. After making a soft "rustling" sound, his finger sank in until the snow submerged.

</di>

At the arm, the fingertips felt a hard coldness, which must be the hard wall of the cave.

Then, he pulled out his arm and looked at the slanted crack where the Snow Spirit Lord disappeared just now. It was one of the four slits in the snow. This time Li Yan did not touch it with his fingers, but closed his eyes, quietly released Divine Sense, and slowly explored the slanted crack.

After a while, Li Yan slowly opened his eyes. "It is mixed in so much snow. Even if you look carefully with Divine Sense, it is easy to ignore it. But how can the snow spirit master here still use the formation restriction?" Li Yan couldn't help but sigh at the creation of nature. People have their own paths, and ghosts have their own paths. Demon Beast here uses the conditions of heaven and earth to hide itself. If he hadn't tracked him just now, there would have been tens of millions of thin slanted cracks on one side. Who would have deliberately explored them one by one? What puzzled Li Yan was that he had just used Divine Sense to detect the cracks in the cave wall where the Snow Spirit Lord entered. There was actually a formation restriction. If he hadn't reacted very quickly, he might have triggered the restriction in the slanted crack just now.

This Snow Spirit Master is really cunning. If others set cave abode restrictions, they will envelop cave abode tens of feet, hundreds of feet, or even the entire mountain. As long as someone steps into these areas, the cave abode Master will know, but this Snow Spirit Master does the opposite and will cave abode The ban is only placed on a thin diagonal gap. Even if someone touches the snow a few inches away, the ban will not be triggered. The disadvantage of this is that if the Snow Spirit Master in cave abode does not pay attention to the outside world at all times, he will not know it even if he is bullied to the door. This is a taboo for immortal cultivators.

But another advantage of doing this is that there are too many thin slant gaps in the snow here. If someone really passes by here, or sweeps it with Divine Sense intentionally or unintentionally, it will be difficult to find that there are formation fluctuations in this thin slant gap and thus sweep it away.

As long as cave abode has restrictions, it will be difficult for anyone to enter. Therefore, in such an environment, setting the formation inside makes it even more hidden. Li Yan couldn't help but sigh at the cunningness of the Snow Spirit Master.

Now is how to enter the Snow Spirit Master cave abode. Only those who are masters of formations can break through it silently. Another way is that the monks who come here are too high-level and can simply ignore the existence of the formations and force their way in. But none of this is possible for Li Yan, but he has the ancient treasure Heaven-Stealing Kerchief, so it is still possible for this cave abode formation to break through quietly. It's just that Demon Beast knows the formation here is what surprises Li Yan.
