Time quietly slipped through his fingers. At this moment, Lu Xiaotian's world was howling with night winds, and the world beneath his feet was a vast expanse of glaciers.
Fine snowflakes drifted down from above, landing on the glaciers beneath his feet and Lu Xiaotian's black robes. Unwittingly, Lu Xiaotian's black robes were also covered in a layer of pure white snow. Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow, causing his clothes to flutter and causing snowflakes to drift down.
Lu Xiaotian floated in the air like a statue. After some time, Lu Xiaotian suddenly opened his eyes, his body moving up and down, left and right. He advanced at an incredibly slow pace, like a crawling snail. After two hours, he had only moved a little more than a hundred feet. Amidst the howling winds, Lu Xiaotian's forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
After a long while, Lu Xiaotian's body once more froze, his face solemn as he took a step to the left. Suddenly, several cold glints of light drifted through the drifting snowflakes.
Lu Xiaotian was shocked. He hurriedly retreated, not intending to fight a battle of attrition. Sword glints flickered all around him. If these sword glints struck, even with Lu Xiaotian's current cultivation, he probably wouldn't be able to take more than a few of them.
With great difficulty, he retreated back to his original position. Only then did the soul-stirring sword glints cease. In truth, this could not be considered his original position, but had shifted slightly. Lu Xiaotian had deduced that the formations and restrictions in this place were quite formidable. The places he had stood before were safe, but after some time, they might not necessarily be safe. Thus, even if he stood still, the places that had not been attacked before would be attacked by the restrictions as time passed.
In this place, there was no place that was absolutely safe. Fortunately, Lu Xiaotian was not completely ignorant of formations, or else he would have already been cut to pieces by the sword glints. Breaking out of the restrictions was not an easy matter, but if he was careful, he could persevere.
Lu Xiaotian's heart calmed down a little.
The silver-haired Lu Xiaotian spent most of his time floating in the air during the long and boring deduction. Occasionally, he would land on the ground and move around aimlessly. Sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes not taking a step for days. Sometimes, he could travel several miles or even dozens of miles in a short period of time.
A few months later, a black shadow flashed and passed through a barrier that was almost invisible to the naked eye.
At this moment, Lu Xiaotian heaved a sigh of relief. He glanced at the strange restriction behind him with lingering fear. After spending several months, he finally figured out the operating pattern of this restriction and found the location of the Life Gate. The Break World bug had woken up more than a month ago, but Lu Xiaotian did not rely on the Break World bug. He broke out on his own.
The moment it broke through the restriction, Little Fire Crow in the spirit beast pouch seemed to want to break out of the spirit beast pouch. Lu Xiaotian wanted to release Little Fire Crow to search for the spirit fire. However, he had seen too many dangers along the way. With Little Fire Crow's strength, its chances of survival were pitifully low. Besides, if it triggered other restrictions, wouldn't he be unlucky as well? Even for him, due to his carelessness, it took him several months to break out of the restriction. Even if he had enough lifespan, he could not afford such a waste.
To be able to cause Little Fire Crow to be so agitated, the spirit fire would not be simple. However, there were often some unknown dangers in the vicinity of some rare treasures.
However, no matter how careful Lu Xiaotian was, some accidents could not be avoided.
After traveling for another hundred miles, under a snow-covered pool, there were surging waves. Lu Xiaotian did not have time to retreat. With two splashes, a strong monster with a human body and a bear's head rushed out from the bottom of the water. It was the Tyrant Bear that had been injured by Lu Xiaotian and had fled. The other monster that broke out of the water was a huge snow centipede with a snow-white body that looked like it was composed of snowflakes.
The moment the Tyrant Bear saw Lu Xiaotian, its face was filled with shock. Obviously, it did not expect to meet its old enemy here. The Tyrant Bear's face was filled with anger at first, but soon a sinister smile appeared on its face. Without saying a word, it fled in the direction of Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian was startled at first, but soon realized what the Tyrant Bear was planning. It obviously wanted to drag him down with it. The Tyrant Bear had the strength of a Ninth-Order, so its speed could only be faster than his. Judging from the aura of the snow centipede behind it, it was only at the Eighth-Order, yet it was able to force the Tyrant Bear to flee. Obviously, this snow centipede was weaker than the Tyrant Bear, but it was still able to force the Tyrant Bear to retreat. In addition to its own strength, who knew how many of its kind were behind it.
Lu Xiaotian was not stupid. He turned around and left, cursing in his heart. He had just come out of that damned restriction, and now he had to run into a jinx like the Tyrant Bear. It seemed that his good luck had run out.
"I say, Lu Xiaotian, your speed doesn't seem to be very good. Why are you running so slowly? There are no less than a hundred of these strange snow centipedes behind you. If you run too slowly, I'll have to go first." The Tyrant Bear increased its speed and chased after Lu Xiaotian. It gradually shortened the distance between it and Lu Xiaotian. A discerning person could see that if this continued, it would not take long for it to overtake Lu Xiaotian.
The speed of the snow centipedes behind it was not slow either. They were even faster than Lu Xiaotian.
In terms of flying speed, Lu Xiaotian did not have any good ideas. Once he swallowed the soul essences of the nine Ninth-Order Demon Eagles, combined with the Eagle Form Cultivation Method, his speed could increase by a large margin. However, this would inevitably alert the enemy.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiaotian released Di Kun. With Di Kun's flying speed, at least those snow centipedes would not be able to catch up in a short time.
As soon as Di Kun came out, he carried Lu Xiaotian forward as fast as lightning.
"Humph, even if you summon your Spirit Beast, you won't be able to get far." Seeing Di Kun appear, the Tyrant Bear's face sank. It directly attacked Lu Xiaotian, no, it should be said that it attacked Di Kun. A huge claw shadow broke through the air.
It was difficult to directly contend with the Tyrant Bear with his physical strength. Lu Xiaotian no longer hesitated. He swallowed the soul essence of an Eighth-Order Demon Tiger and met the Tyrant Bear's attack head-on. Under the huge force, Lu Xiaotian's Qi and blood surged. Behind him, the Tyrant Bear's body also shook slightly.
