Chapter 1011 The Giant God of the Far North

Chapter 1011 The Giant God of the Far North

Hearing Yun Ye's words, Fan Xian nodded thoughtfully.

Yun Ye turned his head, looked at the door of the study and said softly: "Besides, I also do this because I want to give this kid Xiao Wu some respect."

"In today's era, it is nonsense to say that men and women are equal. Women are even discriminated against when going to school. This kind of discrimination is deep-rooted. Even the women themselves think so."

"Under such circumstances, if I directly accept Xiao Wu as my disciple, then there will definitely be a lot of speculation from the outside world, but no matter how they speculate, there will never be a possibility that 'Xiao Wu will impress Marquis Yun with his intelligence and talent.' "

"Even Xiao Wu himself would think that I accepted her as my disciple out of desperation because she secretly stole my apprenticeship."

"This is unacceptable to me, so I plan to leave a buffer period and let the news out that Xiao Wu has been recognized by Marquis Lantian and can freely enter and leave Yun Mansion. After a while, I will officially accept her as my disciple."

"In this way, I can tell the world openly and honestly that Xiao Wu won the recognition of Marquis Yun with his talents..."

Fan Xian stared at Yun Ye blankly, suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, and said with emotion: "You are a good master, but you are a little awkward in doing things."

Yun Ye smiled slightly and was about to retaliate when he suddenly noticed something and quickly took out the Void Jade Tablet from his arms.

Fan Xian blinked and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Yun Ye took a look and then smiled: "Nothing, just met an acquaintance on the Bai Yujing ship..."

…

…

Since receiving the news about Bai Yujing from Yun Ye, the big shots behind Tian Xiangzi temporarily gave up revenge and instead organized a team of a thousand people, with Xitong leading the team towards the North Pole.

According to Yun Ye's description, the ladder to Bai Yujing is located somewhere in the North Pole.

When they encountered the never-ending night in the far north and saw the glow stretching for hundreds of miles, Bai Yujing was not far away.

Because Yun Ye's description was extremely vivid, and Lin Zhongtian's existence confirmed their identity as immortal children, Xitong and everyone behind him believed Yun Ye's words.

So, after a short period of preparation, Xitong led the team from the grassland and walked toward the North Pole.

When they first set off, the team of thousands of people, including Xitong, were full of hope.

But as the team progressed, this hope that had been delayed due to luck gradually turned into a kind of torture.

Wearing leather boots and wrapped in thick clothes, they trudged forward in the extremely wild northern land, facing the wind and snow.

Although they were wearing thick clothes, and some even had only their eyes exposed, it still couldn't stop the bone-chilling cold wind from pouring into their clothes and even their bodies.

On this endless white land, there is nothing but snow.

Gradually, some people became blind. They saw too much snow and were blinded by the light reflected by the snow.

Xitong vaguely remembered Yun Ye mentioning that this should be the so-called snow blindness.

If Xitong remembers correctly, Yun Ye said that snow blindness is only temporary blindness, and it will recover on its own if he can rest for a while.

But after all, this team is not a scientific expedition team for future generations. They cannot and will not stay for these blind companions, so they can only leave these people behind temporarily.

In this way, people in the team began to gradually fall behind, and the number of people gradually decreased little by little.

The reason why they fell behind was naturally not only snow blindness, but also the beasts waiting for opportunities in the dark night, and the cruelest cold.

Some people were still intact last night, but when they woke up, they found that they couldn't feel a certain part of their body.

If this part of the body happens to be a limb, it would be even more terrifying. A careless move, or even a slight bump, may cause him to lose this part of the limb forever.

Those who are missing fingers or arms can still travel, but those who have lost their toes due to frostbite or even their entire legs are necrotic can only give up the journey in despair.

As for the results after being abandoned, there is no need to say more.

They are not like those who fell behind from the beginning. Those people still have room to return, but they have already traveled a long way. With most of their mobility lost, returning can only be a luxury.

To move forward is to die, to retreat is to die, and to stay is also death.

In this desperate situation, most people choose to give themselves a break.

But some people still cherished the hope of survival and begged their intact companions to let them carry them forward on sledges.

Some of those who were begged refused ruthlessly, while others agreed.

Xitong knew that those who agreed did not have good intentions. They had almost eaten up the dry food they carried along the way, and they naturally had some extremely inhumane and cruel thoughts when they brought along those whose legs and feet were frozen. .

Gradually, the team of thousands became the team of hundreds, and the team of hundreds began to gradually approach the team of ten.

In this desperate situation, Xitong and the others finally saw the almost eternal night.

The next day when the sun stopped rising, this team of dozens of people felt panic at first, and then became uncontrollably excited.

They finally found the Ji Ye mentioned by Yun Ye, and they must not be far from Bai Yujing.

Unfortunately, as said before, hope is always more torturous than despair.

At that time, they didn't know what kind of dangerous situation they had entered.

After just half a month of marching, the number of people in the team began to decrease sharply.

Some people walked on the smooth ice and suddenly disappeared. The cracks, which were more than one person wide, were like bloody mouths that devoured people, swallowing them mercilessly, leaving only screams lingering on the ice.

Compared with the suddenly cracked ice, the greater danger is the polar bears lurking in the ice and snow.

In this icy and snowy environment, no matter how minor the injury is, it may expand into a fatal crisis.

Therefore, whenever a polar bear attacks the team, the number of people who fall behind will suddenly increase.

However, danger is often also an opportunity. The appearance of the polar bear not only brings crisis, but also brings long-lost blood food to the team.

A polar bear as tall as three meters can provide sufficient blood and flesh for the entire team. The only thing to worry about is the other polar bears that follow the smell of blood...

After that, the only twenty people left in the team continued to march in this eternal night.

After an unknown period of time, they finally saw the sky full of rosy clouds that Yun Ye said.

The colorful aurora that stretched for hundreds of miles was like a wave rolling in the sky.

All the people who saw this scene were shocked by the beauty of the aurora. Some laughed wildly after coming to their senses, while others covered their faces and cried bitterly.

But without exception, everyone was wantonly venting the emotions that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time.

Xi Tong couldn't help kneeling on the ground, looking at the glow of the sky with tears streaming down his face.

At this moment, another white bear suddenly appeared and attacked the team that suddenly relaxed.

In this unexpected bloody fight, the entire team lost more than half, which was the highest loss rate of this trip.

When Xi Tong stabbed the steel knife in his hand into the heart of the white bear and turned around bathed in the gushing blood, there were only a few people left in the team of more than 20 people.

Seeing this scene, Xi Tong didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

But in any case, the pressure of sunk costs made them unable to stop.

In this way, the only five people left cleaned up the battlefield, took the bear meat, and continued to move forward along the glow of the sky.

As for the bodies of the dozen companions, they were just thrown there and exposed in the wilderness.

It wasn't that Xitong didn't want to bury them, but the soil in the north was too hard, and it was time-consuming and laborious to dig, and there was a risk of injury. They couldn't waste their energy on such things and reduce their survival rate.

Strangely enough, since the appearance of the glow, they didn't encounter other polar bears when they went north again.

Until one day, Xitong led the remaining four people through the woods and came to a snowy plain with undulating mountains. Below the snowy mountains was a lake with thick ice, which blocked them.

Looking at the frozen lake in front, Xitong stopped everyone, picked up a stone with a numb expression, and threw it forward.

"Shhh-"

What surprised everyone was that the flying stone did not fall on the ice, but was annihilated into powder by a sudden burst of blue light in mid-air.

"Is this... an illusion?"

Xitong rubbed his eyes and looked at everyone blankly.

After they came to their senses, they quickly picked up a few stones and threw them forward.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

There were several more light sounds, and all the stones were blocked by the sudden burst of blue light, as if they were evaporated and vaporized into powder.

Xi Tong widened his eyes in disbelief, and finally confirmed that everything he saw was not an illusion.

They quickly used the stones and snow blocks around them to experiment, and soon tested the range of the blue light.

Xi Tong and the four people around him looked at each other, and they could see the uncontrollable excitement in each other's eyes.

This unprecedented supernatural phenomenon must be related to their goal of this trip - Baiyujing!

But they were not sure whether this blue light was only for dead objects, or whether it was regardless of life or death...

A big man with four fingers missing walked forward, pulled out the steel knife at his waist, and tried to chop forward.

"Swish--"

The blue light continued to burst on the tip of the knife, but the big man did not feel the slightest sense of stagnation.

The knife was not swung completely, because Xi Tong suddenly stepped forward and pulled him back.

The steel knife fell to the ground, and the big man was also dragged to the ground by Xi Tong.

When he looked forward in confusion, he was suddenly horrified to find that only half of the steel knife that fell to the ground was left, and all the parts that had been exposed to the blue light had disappeared, and the inclined cross-section was as smooth as a mirror.

"This... this is..."

The big man moved back in fear. If he hadn't stopped, perhaps his arm would have been swallowed by the terrifying blue light.

Xi Tong looked at the broken knife in his hand, and then at the calm ice lake in front of him, and said solemnly: "Perhaps, we really found the Baiyujing mentioned by Yun Ye..."

"Buzz——"

Perhaps Xi Tong's unintentional words touched the key words, and the whole world in front of him suddenly trembled.

Xi Tong was frightened by the scene in front of him, and quickly threw away the steel knife, and fled back in fear with his four companions.

At this moment, the tremor suddenly stopped, and a huge portal appeared on the empty lake surface. The edge of the portal was a blue light barrier composed of countless hexagons.

Sensing the abnormality, Xi Tong subconsciously stopped and turned around with fear.

In the world behind the door, a steel giant ten feet tall slowly walked out, and the searchlight on his chest emitted a dazzling light, shining directly on them...
