Bright Crystal watched her in silence, then scampered onto Mingxi's head in a couple of moves.
It seemed to be avoiding reality.
Mingxi didn't say anything more.
Some things couldn't be solved with just a few words of encouragement; Bright Crystal's psychological defenses were much thicker than its small body.
Beasts cannot be judged by their appearance.
"Alright, everyone, continue to spread out and look for winter ice crystal. Little Silver Flower, you go to work too, otherwise I'm worried we'll return empty-handed and all our efforts will be in vain."
They had dismantled so many places, not only did they fail to find a single winter ice crystal, but they actually brought out the Cold Desire Treasure.
Zhou Xingxing gave a thumbs up.
Excellent!
"..."
Little Silver Flower on the job was worth ten.
When the true winter ice crystal was presented to Mingxi, she once again realized the mystery of luck.
After Little Silver Flower got off to a good start, Mingxi and her three companions, along with their other pet beasts, also received good news one after another.
By the time they had dismantled all the Frost Crystal Spirit Nests in this section of the Jin Shui River, they had already found 22 winter ice crystals, 10 of which were found by Lin Chen's group of three and their pet beasts.
12 crystals were already enough for Lan Yue to upgrade, so Mingxi naturally didn't take Lin Chen's spoils of war.
Due to the Yin Bone Brew, the original plan to stay near the Jin Shui River for a few days to prepare for entering Tower Killing was forced to be canceled.
Mingxi had been keeping an eye on the pool of Yin Bone Brew; the layer of liquid had permeated the ice surface with almost no resistance, likely having all flowed into the Jin Shui River.
Although the ice surface was thick, who could be sure whether tomorrow or an accident would come first?
Mingxi unhesitatingly changed her original plan and decided to enter Tower Killing directly.
Tower Killing.
One of the thirteen major dangerous places in Wanmo Territory, it is a tower-like mountain formed by the piled bones of various beasts, humans, and Transcendent creatures.
It resembles a tower, yet it is a mountain.
From a distance, it looked like a towering snow-capped mountain reaching into the sky.
Tower Killing's altitude reached over 9000 meters!
That's right, it was even higher than Mount Everest.
Furthermore, its land area exceeded 15,000 square kilometers.
It was the largest among the thirteen dangerous places.
Moreover, this area was not just about being forbidden to fly; no pet beasts could appear here.
Be clear, it means pet beasts.
In other words, wild Transcendent creatures were not included.
Therefore, passing through Tower Killing could only be done by ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) themselves.
Mingxi and her group successfully crossed the Jin Shui River and stood before the majestic, yet eerily gloomy tower-mountain, no matter from what angle you looked at it.
On the front of the tower-mountain was a winding bone path that extended all the way to the peak, looking exactly like a giant spine.
"I'm lucky, let me try first!"
Chu Fengfeng rushed ahead of the others, taking a step onto the white bone staircase before Mingxi and Lin Chen could stop him.
The next second, the originally chillingly white bone steps beneath his feet suddenly transformed, as viscous, rotting flesh rapidly grew, submerging his insteps, encasing his legs, and quickly extending upwards towards his upper body.
Chu Fengfeng must have stepped in dog shit when he left home.
He actually triggered Tower Killing's Flesh and Blood Jungle on the very first step!
Also known as the Flesh Fetus Hell.
This Flesh and Blood Jungle was nothing else; once his entire body was enveloped by the flesh and blood, he would become a part of the tower-mountain, and even a Great Immortal would not be able to save him.
"Swish swish swish!"
Chu Fengfeng reacted very quickly, the long sword he had already grasped in his hand struck like lightning.
Cutting through the rapidly spreading flesh and blood.
As long as the speed of stripping the flesh and blood was faster than the speed of its spread, this first step of the Flesh and Blood Jungle was actually not that difficult.
But one must know that Tower Killing was nearly ten thousand meters high, with countless bone steps, and even if not every step would encounter 'dog shit', such a long period of combat was not a simple matter. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
What's more, Tower Killing was not just about the Flesh and Blood Jungle as a killing move.
Chu Fengfeng quickly broke free from the flesh and blood embrace and stepped onto the second step.
On the second step, nothing happened, and he didn't stop, continuously crossing onto the third and fourth steps.
He also passed safely.
But on the fifth step, the situation reappeared.
He suddenly raised his right arm and bit down hard on his own wrist!
"Sizzle!"
Blood splattered.
But the expression on his face was extremely bizarre.
Not only was there no pain, but he even revealed a look of blissful happiness.
It was as if what he was gnawing on at that moment wasn't his own arm, but a fragrant, stewed pig's trotters.
"Gourmet Jungle!"
Tower Killing's Gourmet Jungle forcibly transforms all five senses into appetite, inducing humans to self-cannibalize.
This killing move was far more sinister than the Flesh and Blood Jungle; those with unstable willpower found it very difficult to break free on their own.
And foodies.
One kill, not a peep.
And Chu Fengfeng happened to be a foodie!
Mingxi didn't continue observing, and also took out a tool sword from her spatial inventory and stepped onto the bone steps, while Lin Chen and the other two didn't delay, resolutely following her.
No flesh and blood growth occurred beneath their feet, which was also a special feature of Tower Killing; the killing moves encountered by each person passing through were different.
Second step, third step.
Mingxi triggered the Flesh and Blood Jungle on the fourth step, and her reaction was even faster than Chu Fengfeng's; she had already stepped onto the fifth step before the flesh and blood had even covered her ankles.
"What a fast sword!"
Seeing her crisp and clean moves, Lin Chen and Chen Xin, who were closely following behind her, secretly marveled.
They were soldiers, members of the Jinhui Group, and personal combat training was a mandatory course for them, but Mingxi was only a 16-year-old Xiao Guniang.
Because of the purpose of this trip, they had heard her briefly talk about her family background; she came from a very ordinary family, her father had been missing for many years, her mother remarried and ignored her, and she and her Grandma, an ordinary person, depended on each other.
Logically speaking, the education she received was that of an ordinary child in Dragonflower Country, and current Beast Tamers do not emphasize the improvement of personal combat ability.
So how could she have such formidable combat abilities? freēwēbnovel.com
How exactly had this girl trained in the past two years?
The more they interacted with her, the more they felt that this girl was a mystery.
Mingxi didn't know what they were thinking; after stepping onto the fifth step and confirming no killing move appeared, she directly raised her foot and gave a kick to Chu Fengfeng, who was happily gnawing on himself.
Kicking him to the sixth step.
"Huh?"
Chu Fengfeng woke up.
Then he felt the pain in his wrist.
Meeting the dark eyes of the girl below the steps, he asked blankly, "What happened to me?"
Mingxi smiled, teasing, "Nothing much, just a wolfdog falling in love with a pig's trotters, and a handsome boy meeting a pretty girl."
"..."
Lin Chen and Chen Xin had also resolved the problems they encountered and successfully reached the fifth step.
Lin Chen patted Chu Fengfeng's shoulder, "Eating everything will only harm you."
Saying that, he walked past him and stepped onto the sixth step.
"Hey, buddy, do you need Lan Yue to give you some healing?"
Chen Xin still had a bit of team camaraderie left, holding her Light Dance Dyed Moon with an expression that said, 'You useless thing.'
Chu Fengfeng: "...Thank you, no need to trouble yourself!"
Damn it, none of them were good people.
At this moment, Mingxi also stepped onto the sixth step, and before she could stand firm, a huge dark shadow suddenly shot out in front of her!
