In the depths of the Xilin mountain range, there was a row of tall snow-covered mountain peaks. They were like a tall city wall that towered into the clouds and extended to the north and south until the end of one's sight.
Outside the Snow-capped Peak, all life had been extinguished. The ground within a radius of several hundred meters was covered in ice and snow, and the sky was shrouded in a dense white mist. The entire world had turned white, and a bone-chilling coldness permeated the air, making it extremely difficult to breathe.
At this moment, Xiao Yan was walking on the snow-covered mountain with a puzzled expression. Each step he took would emit a creaking sound. The scene in front of him caused Xiao Yan to feel curious. Why was the world here different from the outside world?
The world was cold and Xiao Yan had no choice but to release the 'Heavenly Flame' in his body. Only by doing so would Xiao Yan not feel uncomfortable.
As he approached this snow-white world, Xiao Yan only felt that the light in the world had also become slightly dimmer. With a flick of his finger, a couple of brilliant 'Heavenly Flames' immediately shot out. Each of them were suspended around Xiao Yan's body, illuminating the world for him. At the same time, the snow in front of his feet also melted, revealing the icy cold rocks under the snow.
"This place … is the hinterland of the Xilin mountain range? I didn't expect it to be like this. "
Xiao Yan's eyes revealed some doubt. He did not expect that this dead land was actually the hinterland of the Xilin mountain range that everyone was most curious about. It was likely that no one would visit such a place covered in ice and snow.
Although he thought in this way in his heart, Xiao Yan still released his Spiritual Strength to investigate the snow region within a thousand feet radius.
Before he understood the real situation of this foreign place, Xiao Yan did not dare to jump to a conclusion. After all, who knew if there were any frightening Magical Beasts existing in this strange place.
Moreover, based on the so-called rules that the three fellows outside had mentioned, they were not the true overlord class existences within the Xilin mountain range. Therefore, although this place appeared to be desolate and empty, it was possible that there was a terrifying Dou Di class Magical Beast spying on Xiao Yan from the depths of this snowy mountain range.
With this thought in mind, caution immediately rose in Xiao Yan's heart. No matter where one went, the unknown was the most frightening. And the hinterland of the Xilin mountain range was an even more dangerous place for Xiao Yan.
"Old Bone, what do you think of this place?"
Xiao Yan quietly asked Gu You in his body during the journey.
"Yes, this old man has indeed discovered something. However, it is still too early to talk about it now. However, this old man advises you to turn around and return. I'm afraid this is not a place you can enter for the time being."
Gu You nodded upon hearing Xiao Yan's words. The words in his mouth surprised Xiao Yan.
Gu You had never objected to Xiao Yan during their journey to the Xilin mountain range. At this moment, however, Gu You's words caused Xiao Yan to feel a little surprised.
"Old Bone, what do you mean by this? Could it be that there is a Dou Di class Magical Beast nearby? "
The expression on Xiao Yan's face became anxious after his words sounded. A thought passed through his heart and the Northern King immediately appeared by his side. It was constantly vigilant of its surroundings.
"No, this old man is not referring to this. I am referring to another matter. Even if there is no Dou Di, it is likely that you will not be able to overcome this."
Gu You shook his head and replied.
"Huh?"
Xiao Yan frowned. He was just about to open his mouth to inquire when Gu You stopped him with a single sentence.
"Let's leave first. You will naturally understand once we reach the place. At that time, it is likely that it will not be up to you even if you do not wish to return!"
Gu You once again returned to silence after his words sounded. He ignored Xiao Yan regardless of how he asked. Xiao Yan involuntarily felt a little doubtful in his heart. He helplessly curled his mouth and moved his feet. He continued to slowly walk forward.
… …
Xiao Yan walked for a long time along this path. When he once again lifted his head to look above, the sky had become completely dark with the exception of a fire light above his head. The surrounding temperature had also become increasingly cold. Clearly, time had swiftly flowed by and night had once again arrived.
Xiao Yan involuntarily frowned as he sensed the cold aura around him. This interior of Xilin was really strange. The temperature here was many times lower than an ordinary winter. Even his Heavenly Flame was unable to completely nullify the cold aura. From this, one could tell just how frighteningly dark and cold the temperature of this place was.
"Hu hu hu …"
At a certain moment, a cluster of Heavenly Flame, which was originally a short distance in front of Xiao Yan, was actually forcefully extinguished by a cold wind. Xiao Yan's heart was greatly startled when he saw this scene. Who could have imagined that the most violent energy in the world, a Heavenly Flame, would actually be forcefully extinguished by a cold wind!
The cold wind's strength did not diminish even after the Heavenly Flame was extinguished. It whistled past and headed straight for Xiao Yan.
Before the cold wind arrived in front of him, Xiao Yan had already sensed the frighteningly low temperature being emitted from it. In front of this frighteningly low temperature, it was likely that an ordinary Ban Emperor would be completely frozen into an ice cube within an instant!
The expression on Xiao Yan's face immediately became grave when he thought of this. He widened his mouth and a brilliant Heavenly Flame was immediately spat out. It turned into a frightening Heavenly Flame light pillar. It was accompanied by a frighteningly high temperature as it violently charged at the cold wind that was heading towards him.
"Chi …"
This time around, with Xiao Yan personally unleashing the 'Heavenly Flame', how could the wisp of flame seedling from earlier compare with its strength. In the blink of an eye, it easily broke through the cold wind until it reached the deepest part. After breaking the few cold winds that came later, Xiao Yan finally unleashed the 'Heavenly Flame' to wrap around his body. His footsteps were firm as he strode toward the deepest part.
This time around, Xiao Yan's expression did not change even a little in the face of the cold wind. He allowed the cold wind to blow on his body. However, with the Heavenly Flame in front of him this time around, any cold wind that attacked him would be instantly destroyed by the Heavenly Flame.
Looking from a distance, despite being covered by clouds, one could still vaguely see a cluster of somewhat blurry fire swiftly moving forward in the dark night. Occasionally, a large fire would rise high, causing this part of the world to become brightly lit.
After a long while, Xiao Yan, who originally did not stop, once again paused. His face appeared somewhat pale under the Heavenly Flame. Even his breathing had begun to become difficult.
At the same time that Xiao Yan paused his footsteps, a slope that was paved with cold ice appeared a short distance in front of him. Wave after wave of frightening cold wind was blowing from the top of this road with a 'hu hu' sound, much like the roar of the underworld.
