Best Ascension

Chapter 253 The Cold Wave Falls, Mutations Happen! (For book friends to miss and look at each other more)
After two lifetimes, Zhao Sheng stepped into Dongtian City again. As far as he could see, there were still various pavilions, towers, towers and forts in Dongtian City.

On the walls around the cave, there are densely packed caves, and there are also immortal cultivators with different clothes and expressions flying in and out of the caves, appearing extremely busy.

Nine hundred years have passed, and Dongtian City is still the city of casual cultivators, just like before!
Zhao Sheng's heart flashed with emotion.

He walked unhurriedly on the streets of Fangshi, and when he was interested, he sometimes entered the roadside shops, and sometimes bent down to pick a few gadgets from the casual repair stalls.

Zhao Sheng didn't leave for the inner city until he became familiar with the environment and atmosphere of Dongtian City.

Half a quarter of an hour later, in the backyard living room of a elixir shop in Dandingfang, Zhao Sheng sat at the head with a big horse and a golden knife, and a middle-aged man with an ordinary face stood respectfully on the left.

"Main Master, this is all the information we have collected recently, please read it over."

The middle-aged man's name is Zhao Yangong, he is in the middle stage of Qi refining, he is a member of the Anbu, and he is also a member of the Shenzimai clan, so he is not called the clan elder, but Zhao Sheng is called the pulse master.

Zhao Sheng photographed the jade slips, his spiritual sense penetrated into it, and he read the information inside in a blink of an eye.

"Well, Dongtian City is quite chaotic recently! A casual cultivator Jindan was assassinated by an apprentice, and he succeeded. This is simply ridiculous."

"Reporter, Master Ten Birds ended up like this. It is rumored that he was severely injured during an expedition to the remains half a year ago. After returning, he tried to heal his wounds with his apprentice's life. That's why he was attacked by three apprentices. Finally die."

"What about the three apprentices?"

"The three of them have disappeared."

"Hehe, I don't think it's fake if you don't know your whereabouts, but it's true if you've been silenced."

"Main Master, do you mean that Master Shi Qin was not killed by his apprentice, and the murderer was someone else?"

"Well, it doesn't matter whether it's for treasure or revenge. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with the purpose of my coming.

But I want to remind you that some things must not be messed with, and some things are best not even touched!People will die, you know? "

"Yes, Master Maid! Yangong knew his mistake, and I will cut off with outsiders immediately." Hearing this, Zhao Yangong broke into cold sweat instantly, and was so frightened that he bowed and begged for mercy.

Zhao Sheng just slapped the other party once, and he didn't intend to ask the teacher to blame him.

After a short rest for a day, Zhao Sheng took two storage bags containing the necessary supplies and left Dongtian City alone.

As a foundation cultivator, he doesn't have to climb up and down as hard as in his previous life.Just by controlling Fang Tian's painted halberd, he can easily fly through a layer of Tiangang atmosphere.

It took a quarter of an hour for Zhao Sheng to fly directly to the eighteen-mile-high mountain and cliff.

Along the gray and green mixed, uneven cliff face, it flew nearly [-] miles horizontally.

The cloud world on the cloudy side of Tianzhu Mountain soon appeared in front of him.

After searching for a while, Zhao Sheng quickly saw the landmark: the big bluestone over three feet high.

After nearly a thousand years of continuous exploration by members of the Zhao family, every plant and tree along the [-]-mile journey from Daqingshi to Zhao's secret mansion has been marked very clearly.

Not only that, but the Zhao family also set up many hidden fortresses along the way, which are usually used for the clansmen to rest, protect safety and avoid sudden dangers.

Three days later, Zhao Sheng stood on a protruding rock on a seemingly ordinary cloud and mist cliff, took out a knife-shaped pass token from his sleeve, and shook it lightly at the cloud and mist in front of him.

In a blink of an eye, the thick cloud and mist in front of him suddenly opened a winding three-foot path. Zhao Sheng flew across the path and entered the secret mansion.

When he disappeared, the clouds and mist filled up again, and the path was quickly hidden in the formations.

After crossing the third-order phantom formation and the defensive formation, Zhao Sheng just stepped onto the ground, bursts of rich, sweet and strong fragrance, accompanied by a stream of vigorous water and wood aura, rushed to his nose in an instant.

Zhao Sheng took a deep breath, and his eyes were directly fixed on the ancient flat peach tree, which was as thick as two people hugged each other, with twisted and old branches, and the shade was as huge as a mountain, so big that it occupied most of the world.

Under the careful care of the members of the Zhao clan, this ancient tree grew beyond imagination.

The peach leaves are as crystal clear as jasper, surrounded by large spiritual clouds under the trees among the branches, and the large expanses of water vapor are jumping and enveloping, refracting rainbow lights.

Under the shade of the peach leaves and branches, the life-extending flat peaches are about the size of a human head, with red tops and white skins, smooth like jade skin, with a faint aura shining on the surface, hanging high and low among the treetops, exuding an extremely attractive aura. aroma.

In ancient times, the flat peach tree bloomed every 30 years, and bore fruit every 30 years, with 36 peach fruits.

Because there is still half a year before this round of maturity, Zhao Sheng rushed to the secret mansion to guard the peach tree in advance.

When the flat peaches are truly ripe, Zhao Xuanjing, the ancestor of the Zhao family's golden elixir, will also come here in person.

"Qingyang, the family really sent you here."

While speaking, a thin old man with an unusually old face and white hair suddenly flashed out from a cave not far away, and landed in front of Zhao Sheng in a flash, smiling with a very pleasant expression.

Zhao Sheng took a few steps forward and said with a smile: "Fifth Grandpa, there are no more than ten people in my family who know this place. After all, I am the only one who is the most suitable."

The fifth great master's real name is Zhao Daochuan, and he built a foundation of the eighth-level realm. Because he ate a longevity peach in his early years, he is the only surviving Daoist member of the Zhao family.

Zhao Daochuan was not born in Xinglongyuan, but a clansman from the ancestral land of Taiwu Mountain.

This person has been obsessed with formations all his life, especially good at civil construction, so he is highly valued and preferred by Zhao Xuanjing.

As we all know, the formation method is broad and profound, obscure and difficult to understand, and its difficulty in studying it is the first among all the arts of cultivating immortals. It is not only difficult to get started, but also difficult to master.

A third-order formation master is often rarer than a real person.

Zhao Daochuan is a quasi-third-order formation mage, and his highest achievement in his life is the quasi-third-order compound magic circle outside which built the outer defense of Zhao's secret mansion: Wutu Lingguang formation.

"Haha, it's good that you're here. I'll leave it to you to take care of the outside. I'll go back down first. I have a Wutu Thick Life Formation in my hand that I haven't studied thoroughly yet. Now it's a critical time, so it's best not to disturb me. "

At this time, Zhao Daochuan left Zhao Sheng alone, turned around and quickly slipped into the cave.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Sheng couldn't help but shook his head, he couldn't help but shake his head, there was nothing he could do about the fifth master's insanity.

Since then, Zhao Sheng has set up camp in the secret mansion.

Time is like water, autumn and winter come, Tianzhu Mountain is getting colder every day.

One day, under the flat peach tree, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged, his brows were tightly frowned, his veins were bulging, showing a slightly painful look, but circles of silver white, light black, golden yellow, and light blue faintly appeared inside and outside his body. Light blue five-color aura.

Among them, the light blue aura is the most dazzling. It spreads all over the body, forming a dense network of human bodies intertwined vertically and horizontally.Taking a closer look, this aura network is completely consistent with the blood vessels of the human body.

After half an hour, the silvery and white aura dissipated first, then the light black aura, and then the golden and light blue aura disappeared.

In the end, it was the turn of the light blue aura to slowly dissipate. Zhao Sheng's muscles and bones crackled, and the mercury marrow blood in his body roared like a surge. After nine times of continuous contraction, Zhao Sheng returned to normal.

"Phew, very good. After refining the mercury crystal essence into the blood, my physical body is much stronger than before. It should be comparable to a high-grade spiritual weapon. It's a pity that the immortal golden body is still a little short. Although the treasure is good, It's just too little." After Zhao Sheng sighed greedily, he slowly opened his eyes.

After finishing the body training, Zhao Sheng was overjoyed, stretched his waist, slapped the ground to his feet, and after exercising his muscles and bones a few times, he was about to enter the burrow to see how far the Fifth Lord had studied.

Ok?
At this moment, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he suddenly raised his head to look at the sky. Through the array of magic circles, he seemed to have seen the change in the extreme sky.

Boom!

Boom!

A series of rumbling and muffled sounds suddenly came from the depths of the clouds above the head, like the muffled thunder constantly exploding in a thunderstorm.

"Tianzhu cold wave!" Zhao Sheng was suddenly stunned, his expression slightly surprised.

At this time, there was a burst of fine crackling sound of freezing on the mountain wall.

As the temperature plummeted, countless white ice flakes suddenly appeared in the fog and fell down.

The unique cold air of Tianzhu Mountain condensed out in a whirl, and the air columns whirled and whizzed, constantly stirring up the surrounding dense fog.

In just a few minutes, Zhao Sheng's eyes were filled with infinite white.

A white line emerged from the upper cloud sea, extending from top to bottom, from left to right to nowhere.

The white cold wave is boundless and mighty, crushing everything with a destructive force.

Countless cold currents between the sky and the earth turned into bone-piercing "ice spears", piercing thousands of feet vertically and horizontally, wrapping the surrounding cold air and whistling and sweeping.

The cold wave and natural disaster cannot be stopped by humans!
With the cold wave clearing the world of clouds and mists, Zhao Sheng has seen tens of thousands of monsters, beasts and birds flee from above, or jump down, or hide in caves between rocks.

"Damn, almost forgot!"

At this time, Zhao Daochuan ran out of the cave cursingly, while running, he continued to pinch the spells, shooting out streams of earth-yellow spiritual power, and shot them into the air in all directions.

Buzz!

I saw the air suddenly rippling, and the defensive magic circle around the secret mansion was stimulated to its full power in a blink of an eye.

At the same time, the outer phantom array was fully activated, and the range of the magic circle expanded to a radius of three hundred feet.

As soon as any monsters or ominous birds broke into the range of the phantom formation, they would be induced by the power of the magic formation to deviate from the direction of escape, unconsciously avoiding the location of the secret mansion.

"Okay, Qingyang, you don't have to worry! For many years, I haven't seen a monster that can break through the defense line. You just need to practice.

The flat peaches will be ripe in one month.When the ancestor comes, we will have nothing to do. "

Zhao Daochuan patted Zhao Sheng on the shoulder, turned around and rushed into the cave after speaking.

He has watched Tianzhu Cold Wave for more than 60 years, but he has no interest in it.

……

Five days later,
Bang, bang!
A piece of soil and rocks wrapped in several irregular large stones suddenly fell from the sky, passed through the phantom formation, hit the barrier of the defensive formation, was drawn to the periphery by the power of the formation, and then continued to fall downwards.

Standing on the edge of the slope, Zhao Sheng narrowed his eyes suddenly, and saw a half corpse below the waist mixed in the soil and rocks.

boom!
In the next second, the other half of the corpse also fell from the sky, hit the barrier, and slanted down.

Zhao Sheng burst out with consciousness, stretched out his hand and made a move, and the corpse stopped suddenly.

Opening a gap in the magic circle, he took the corpse to his feet.

The dead man was an old man in his fifties, dressed gorgeously and made of extraordinary materials.

Zhao Sheng squatted down, stretched out his hand to touch the corpse, and couldn't help but mutter to himself in surprise: "Judging from the bone age and residual spiritual power, this person is another foundation cultivator. What happened above?"

Fighting and fighting are very common on Tianzhu Mountain, but during the cold wave, few immortal cultivators dare to brave the extreme cold to go up the mountain.

Especially in the last half a day, the corpses of two Foundation Establishment cultivators fell down one after another.The place of death happened to be at an unknown height above the secret mansion.

Isn't this a bit strange?
boom!
At this time, another large piece of earth and rock mixed with a large amount of ice and snow roared down from the sky.

Zhao Sheng looked up at the extreme sky, but his vision was blocked by ice and snow, so he couldn't see clearly what happened above.

"A chance fight or a coincidence?" Zhao Sheng looked at the sky thoughtfully and muttered to himself.

In the next day, many batches of earth, rocks, ice and snow fell around the secret mansion, and there were also many corpses of monsters and cultivators.

Even at night, Zhao Sheng saw three Foundation Establishment cultivators carrying three bright fireballs, quickly passing over the cliff twenty miles away, and flying to the top in an instant.

"Something happened!" Seeing this, Zhao Sheng finally realized that some kind of accident must have happened on the mountain.

"I have to go and see."

Suddenly, Zhao Sheng turned into a wisp of light smoke and penetrated into the cave.

Passing through the long passage and passing through the large-scale building complexes, Zhao Sheng came to the Shanlong Cavern.

After thousands of years of growth, the entire crypt has been occupied by countless roots of the flat peach tree, and most of the huge mountain dragon remains have been consumed at this moment, leaving only three stories tall.

Zhao Sheng has no intention of caring about these.

He quickly passed through the passages in the northwest corner of the burrow, drove straight for more than a hundred feet, and finally arrived at a huge stone palace.

He quickly found Zhao Daochuan and explained that he wanted to go out to investigate.

"Qingyang, the flat peaches are almost ripe. It's not good for you to go out now!" Zhao Daochuan said tactfully.

"Grandpa, with you, and the third-order magic circle outside, it is impossible for ordinary Jindan real people to attack in a short time. And after all these years, has anyone discovered the secret mansion?"

"It was discovered several times before, but they were all killed. As for Jindan Daoist, there was none." Zhao Daochuan said in a low voice.

"Yes! In that case, what are you worried about. Grandpa, I have a hunch that maybe the opportunity has arrived. If I don't go there, I will not be reconciled." Zhao Shengyue said, his heart throbbing more and more, as if there was something real Something seemed to be waiting for him.

"Since this is the case, it's good for you to go there. But be careful in everything. If you encounter danger, you should return quickly. The ancestor will come at any time. When the time comes, simply let the ancestor take action."

"Well, then I'll go first!"

Zhao Sheng nodded at him, then turned and left the place.

A moment later, a thin, yellow-faced man appeared out of thin air in a sunken mud puddle.

This man is Zhao Sheng after changing his body shape.

He took out a three-inch flying sword, shook his hand and threw it out. The small sword swelled to a length of three feet, and then turned into a sword rainbow, wrapped around Zhao Sheng's body, and rushed into the sky.

An hour later, Zhao Sheng flew over two seas of clouds and reached an altitude of more than 40 miles.

At this altitude, the air is extremely thin, the environment is extremely cold, and the breath turns into ice.

As far as the eye can see, the cliffs have all formed a thick layer of ice, and the sky is full of strange and unusually sharp frost.

Countless frosts raged back and forth with the roar of the storm, and the lethality was no less than that of countless first-order spells erupting at the same time. In the late stage of ordinary Qi refining, even two breaths could not last, and it was impossible to survive here until the foundation building state.

However, in this harsh environment, Zhao Sheng looked at the sky from a distance, and suddenly saw a large white mist in the sky above.

　In order to ensure full attendance first, it will be released after midnight.

　　However, it will still be updated on the 31st
