Bulwark of Light

It seems that he noticed something wrong with Bai Xiu's eyes.

Gu Xiaoman subconsciously glanced at his original position in the frozen lake.

"Cough cough..."

Gu Xiaoman smiled embarrassingly, and quickly waved his sleeves, recalling the spiritual black snake overflowing from [Yanmeng] into his sleeves.

"Chucky!"

With the disappearance of the black arc ball that continues to spread...

The tense air in the frozen lake also became lighter.

Seeing that Gu Xiaoman is still as "cunning" as he was five years ago, Bai Xiu feels a little relieved, the more thoughtful the little guy is, the safer he will be when he goes out.

But his expression is still serious: "You mentioned Yunhu just now, do you doubt that he will send someone to assassinate you?"

"You can't say yes, and you can't say no."

Gu Xiaoman rubbed the center of his eyebrows, looking a little helpless.

"I just think that if there is an assassin who assassinates me...then the probability of coming from the Yunhu sect is the highest."

She said slowly: "The news of my departure from the Tower of Origin has not been told to outsiders. So if someone really wants to assassinate me, it must come from Central Continent. Only people in the same sect can know and grasp my intimate movements."

"There are many people in the same sect, why do you guess it is Yunhu?"

"I said I said it casually, do you believe it?"

Gu Xiaoman said with a grin: "Okay, master, don't ask, let this matter go... I will properly handle the matter on the side of Zhongzhou myself."

"..."

Bai Xiu could only remain silent.

He asked again: "Why did you come to the tundra?"

This is a good question.

As Gu Xiaoman, it is not easy to leave Central Continent. She has many places to choose for this trip, but she chooses the tundra. Bai Xiu does not believe that this is an accidental choice.

"I've never seen snow."

Gu Xiaoman replied in a very calm and calm tone: "So come to the north to have a look."

Bai Xiu was speechless again. He looked at this indifferent little girl, and couldn't find anything to refute for a while.

Judging from Gu Xiaoman's personality.

What she said might be true... She wanted to come to the tundra to see it, so she did.

"Just because of this?"

"Because of this."

Gu Xiaoman paused for two seconds, looked at Bai Xiu, and said seriously: "I'm going back to Central Continent soon, can you take me to the end of the tundra?"

In fact, Bai Xiu also heard Gu Xiaoman's conversation with Honglong in the communicator earlier.

The Tower of Origin is calling her back.

Judging from the direction she was going, she didn't want to respond to this recall.

It can only be delayed for a while, but not for a lifetime.

If there is no news, Red Dragon will come to the tundra to find her in person.

"Do you want to go to the end of the tundra?" Bai Xiu raised his eyebrows: "There are many snow-capped mountains there."

"Yes, I want to see those snow-capped mountains."

Gu Xiaoman smiled brightly, and said: "I have just been promoted to the third level, and the ability of [Yanmeng] is not very helpful for the journey... After a month of hard work, I only reached the frozen lake."

In fact, she was walking very fast. The frozen lake area is a taboo area that is quite deep in the tundra!

"Come on, I'll take you to see... the end of the tundra."

With a wave of Bai Xiu's sleeves, countless electric arcs flew in the void, and the Thunder World Walker was completed out of thin air!
Gu Xiaoman subconsciously took two steps back. In front of her was a tall and strong armored creature, almost as big as a mountain. She had a good memory. When the white sleeve summoned [Thunder World Walker] back then, the armored creature's size might Only half of what it is now.

Thunder World Walker slowly stretched out a hand, motioning for the girl in black to step on it.

Gu Xiaoman grinned, she was not polite to Baixiu, she stepped on the palm of the Thunder World Walker, instead of being full of thunder light as expected, it was quite comfortable, this armored creature restrained all hostility, and the crackling static thunder light It just exploded around Gu Xiaoman's body, without actually touching her. The Thunder Walker carefully placed the girl on his right shoulder, and then repeated the same movement, placing his master on his left shoulder.

next moment.

"Crack!"

The surface of the frozen lake is broken.

The Leijie walker jumped directly into the sky and swept towards the extreme east. The wind and snow hit his face, and all of them were swept away by Baixiu's domain.

The two flew smoothly.

"Master, I remember that [Thunder World Walker] five years ago didn't look like this..."

Gu Xiaoman clicked her tongue, and she asked with emotion: "What state are you in now?"

Because of the late birth.

When Gu Xiaoman started his extraordinary practice, Bai Xiu was already close to the top of the mountain.

So in her perception, Baixiu has always been a mountain.

Whether it was five years ago or five years later, she couldn't see clearly the true strength of her "cheap master".

It's just that when they met this time, she vaguely felt that Master Baixiu's strength made people look up to him. This was a feeling that she couldn't experience five years ago... This is the only way to truly start extraordinary practice, and to truly be on this road. Only those who feel bottlenecks and obstacles on the road will understand the taste.

Bai Xiu is a higher level of genius in the eyes of geniuses.

Even in Gu Xiaoman's eyes, it was the same.

"you guess."

For this question, Bai Xiu just smiled and did not answer directly.

"Five years ago, you should have been at the peak of the fourth order... now you should at least be the legendary fourth-order transcendent?"

Gu Xiaoman thought for a while, and reported a conservatively estimated answer.

Bai Xiu looked down at the scenery under the clouds, but he still didn't answer, but changed the subject and pointed down.

"Did you see this lake shrouded in blue light?"

Gu Xiaoman looked in the direction pointed by the white sleeve.

Since there are thousands of meters away from the ground at this moment, [Thunder World Walker] is still climbing, so the blue light lake does not look big at the moment, only the size of a palm, but in fact... this lake may be close to a hundred. inside.

Gu Xiaoman's expression became serious.

When looking at the blue light, [Yanmeng] sent her a message of danger and inaccessibility.

"What is this blue light?" She couldn't figure it out.

"It's an enchantment."

Bai Xiu said succinctly: "It was the 'enchantment' built by Mrs. Li, which deliberately sealed off the lake. Six years ago, a sky sheath bomb was detonated here. So far, the range of the enchantment is in a state of 'extinction of life'. , that lake has countless fission fragments of the celestial sheath, so it is strictly forbidden for extraordinary people to step in."

After Gu Xiaoman entered the Tower of Origin, he obtained very high authority.

She was enlightened very early, and under the guidance of the Red Dragon these years, she has also read a lot of files, so she naturally knows about things like the sky sheath weapon.

As soon as Bai Xiu mentioned the sky sheath weapon, she murmured, "Is that sky sheath weapon called a child?"

"Yes, toddler."

Bai Xiu murmured softly: "The power of a child can shatter a hundred miles of frozen lake. This kind of equivalent weapon is enough to destroy the world. Even now, I still have no confidence in surviving that kind of explosion... ..."

As long as there is no becoming a god, no matter how evolved the body of a transcendent is, it will not be able to resist the fission of the sky sheath.

The childish explosion is actually a blow to the dimensionality reduction of the life level!
But that year, there was one person who survived the blow of the sky sheath, and it was only at the third level.

Speaking of this, the two fell silent at the same time.

There is a name that has not been mentioned, but has already entered the hearts of the two.

Gu Xiaoman had read the files back then. She knew about the joint pursuit of Xuelong fugitives by Central City and Nagano, and also about Gu Shen's survival in the explosion of children.

The Leijie walker was slowly flying in the air, and the blue lake was left behind, gradually becoming invisible.

After a long time, Gu Xiaoman spoke hoarsely.

"So...how did he survive the explosion that year?"

"unsolved puzzle."

Bai Xiu laughed at himself: "Except for Gu Shen, no one knows the answer... Looking at it now, this can already be called a 'miracle'."

Gu Xiaoman hesitated to speak, thought again and again, and finally stopped talking.

She really wanted to say, if that person survived the bombing of Juvenile, why couldn't he survive the bombing of Sangzhou Grotto?
In the first two years after returning to Central Continent, she devoted herself to hard work, cultivating in the perfect dreamland created for her by the Tower of Origin, and ignored the affairs of the outside world.

It's just that some things can't be hidden.

The news of Gu Shen's death spread all over the five continents one after another. Even if the tower of origin is powerful, it can't keep it hidden.

So at the end of the second year, Gu Xiaoman learned of this "bad news".

But at that time, Wuzhou had completely recovered its calm, and even the investigation team in Nagano had rested for a while. Because there were no new clues, the investigation team could not continue the investigation.

The world works the same without anyone.

Most people still remember Gu Shen's name.

A small number of people remember that such an "S-level genius" appeared and created many miracles, which is worthy of nostalgia... or mourning.

But everyone remembered that this guy was dead, no matter how talented he was, he was just a corpse.

This is how the world is. Throughout history, even a person as powerful as Gu Changzhi and as great as Emperor Beizhou Tieqiong, what they leave to the world in the end is nothing more than a pile of loess and a few portraits.

"In the past five years, I have been to the ice sea many times."

Bai Xiu said softly: "I hope to see the scene after the child's explosion in the frozen lake, to see Gu Shen appearing in front of me... This guy can always perform miracles, maybe he is not dead?"

Gu Xiaoman asked: "You have been to the ice sea so many times, have you found any useful information?"

"not at all."

Bai Xiu said: "If you have the opportunity to practice alone next time, don't go to the Ice Sea, there is nothing there. Even if you search very hard, you can't find someone's body, at most you can only find Sangzhou Grotto The fragments of the land after the island was broken, and the combination of mutated beast spirit feces."

This is a bad joke that isn't funny.

Gu Xiaoman was a little helpless, she looked at the man in white beside her, and said seriously: "Master, you are not suitable for telling such jokes... But I did have plans to go to the ice sea before."

The speed of the Thunder World Walker gradually slowed down and gradually landed.

The clouds were pushed aside by the skylight.

Gu Xiaoman's eyes shined brightly, she saw a magnificent snow-white world, at the end of the tundra were countless towering snow peaks, here there were gorgeous aurora flickering, reflecting and refracting on the pure white snow layer, it looked holy and dignified.

"I have been retreating in the tundra for a long time. The scenery here is beautiful, and no one comes."

The Leijie walker found a snow mountain and landed.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Bai Xiu said with a soft smile, "Usually Nagano sent people to look for me, but they couldn't find this kind of place... This is the best clean place in the world. If someone wants to hide some secrets in this kind of place, then It must not be discovered."

"yes……"

Gu Xiaoman stood on the top of the snow-capped mountain, staring at the beautiful scene that he had never seen in his life, and was dazed.

Bai Xiu raised his hand.

The Thunder World Walker dissipated, but the domain also spread.

The Transcendent Qi machine above the snow mountain was completely locked.

"So, this kind of place is the place where you can really tell the 'secret'."

Standing with hands behind his back, Bai Xiu came to Gu Xiaoman's side and said, "If you have anything to say, you can say it now... You can also choose to hold back, but no matter what, I don't believe that you came to the Tundra for real. Just to see the snow."

Gu Xiaoman was stunned.

"If my guess is correct, you want to see the frozen lake where the child exploded."

Bai Xiu laughed softly: "You want to see how terrifying the power of the sky scabbard weapon [Children] after it exploded, and whether it can be compared with the Sangzhou Cave... The reason why you came to the tundra is actually to find out who Gu Shen was. cause of death."

After a moment of silence, the little guy raised his head: "...Yes."

She didn't retreat, nor did she hide.

"I don't believe that Gu Shen is dead. I saw the [Children] explosion recorded in the file...so I want to come to the tundra to have a look."

Gu Xiaoman's voice was very low at first, but soon she raised her voice: "There is nothing shameful about me doing this!"

She was exposed to the true intention of going east and north, and she was a little angry for a while, but in fact it was more of a grievance.

"After entering the Tower of Origin, I will not be able to step into Dongzhou openly. I will not be able to go to Nagano, nor will I be able to go to Dadu...Even if I travel alone, the news of leaving Central Continent cannot be announced."

"I want to come to Dongzhou to have a look. The only place I can step into is the tundra!"

As she spoke, her eye sockets became a little moist.

"I still remember the scene of parting five years ago. He promised me that we would meet again..."

"He also told me that Nagano is a very beautiful and beautiful ancient city. After I leave Nanzhou, he must take me to see it. It will be a wonderful new home..."

Gu Xiaoman clenched his sleeves tightly.

So far she is still wearing the source armor that Gu Shen gave her.

She thought about how well Gu Shen treated her.

Think every day.

Because she was in the darkness, there was a person who opened the door of light for her, so every ray of light she saw after that would remind her of the person who pushed the door.

She remembered every sentence, every word, every promise that Gu Shen said.

But Gu Shen died in Sangzhou Grotto...

These promises are like lies of liars.

Gu Xiaoman raised her hands and spread them around her mouth, and shouted loudly towards the snow-capped mountains in front of her with all her strength.

"Gu Shen! You big liar!"
