Barrier of Light

It seemed that he noticed something was wrong in Baixiu's eyes.

Gu Xiaoman subconsciously glanced at the position where he originally stood on the frozen lake.

"Ahem..."

Gu Xiaoman smiled sheepishly and quickly waved his sleeves, recalling the spiritual black snake that had overflowed from [Dream of Dreams] into his sleeves.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

As the spreading black arc ball disappeared...

The tight air of the frozen lake also became lighter.

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

But his expression was still solemn: "You just mentioned Yun Hu, do you suspect that he will send someone to assassinate you?"

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

Gu Xiaoman rubbed his eyebrows, looking helpless.

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

She said slowly: "The news that I left the Tower of Source was not told to outsiders. So if someone really wants to assassinate me, it must be from Central Continent. Only people from the same sect can know and control my close movements."

"There are many people in the same sect, why did you guess it was Yun Hu?"

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

Gu Xiaoman chuckled and said, "Okay, master, don't ask, just let this matter pass...I will handle the matter in Zhongzhou properly myself."

"..."

Baixiu 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. During this trip, she had many places to choose from, but she chose the tundra. Bai Xiu did not believe that this was an accidental choice.

"I've never seen snow."

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

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

Judging from Gu Xiaoman's character.

What she said might be true...she wanted to come to the Tundra to see it, so she came.

"Is that why?"

"That's why."

Gu Xiaoman paused for two seconds, looked at Bai Xiu, and said seriously: "I will be returning to Central Continent soon. Can you take me to the end of the tundra to have a look?"

In fact, Baixiu also heard what Gu Xiaoman said to Honglong through the communicator.

The Tower of Source is calling her back.

Judging from the direction she was heading, she didn't want to pay attention to this recall.

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

If there is no news, the red dragon will personally come to the tundra to find her.

"You want to go to the end of the tundra?" Baixiu raised his eyebrows: "There are many snow-capped mountains there."

"Yes, I want to see those snowy mountains."

Gu Xiaoman smiled brightly and said: "I have just been promoted to the third level. The ability of [Dream Dream] does not help me on the road... 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 forbidden zone that goes deep into the tundra!

"Sit up, I'll take you to see...the end of the tundra."

Baixiu waved his sleeves, and countless electric arcs flew across 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 rather strong and tall armored creature, almost as big as a mountain. She had a good memory. When Baixiu summoned [Thunder World Walker], the size of the armored creature might be Only half of what it is now.

The Thunder World Walker slowly stretched out a hand and motioned for the girl in black to step on him.

Gu Xiaoman grinned. She was not polite to Bai Xiu. She stepped on the palm of the Thunder World Walker. Instead of being filled with lightning as expected, it was quite comfortable. This armored creature restrained all hostility, and the crackling static electricity lightning It only exploded around Gu Xiaoman, but did not really touch her. The Thunder World Walker carefully placed the girl on his right shoulder, and then repeated the same action, placing his master on his left shoulder.

next moment.

"Crack!"

The surface of the frozen lake is broken.

The Thunder World Walker jumped directly into the sky and flew towards the extreme east. The wind and snow hit his face, and they were all swept away by the domain of Baixiu.

The two flew smoothly.

"Master, I remember that the [Thunder World Walker] five years ago was not like this..."

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

Because of being born late.

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 high mountain.

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

But during this meeting, she vaguely felt that the strength of Master Baixiu made people look up to her. This was a feeling that she could not experience at all five years ago... This is the only way to truly start extraordinary practice and truly achieve this goal. Only those who feel bottlenecks and obstacles on the road will understand what it's like.

Baixiu is a higher-level genius in the eyes of geniuses.

Even in Gu Xiaoman's eyes, this is the case.

"you guess."

Regarding this question, Baixiu just smiled slightly and did not answer directly.

"You should have been at the peak of the fourth level five years ago... Now you should be at least the legendary fourth level transcender, right?"

Gu Xiaoman thought for a while and gave a conservative answer.

Bai Xiu lowered his eyes and looked at the scenery under the clouds. He still didn't answer, but changed the topic and pointed below him.

"Have you seen this lake shrouded in blue light?"

Gu Xiaoman looked in the direction pointed by Bai Xiu.

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

Gu Xiaoman's expression became serious.

When she looked at the green light, [Dream] conveyed to her the message that danger should not be approached.

"What is this blue light?" She was confused.

"It's a barrier."

Bai Xiu's words were concise and to the point: "It was the 'boundary' built by the Li family to deliberately block the lake. Six years ago, a Skysheath bomb was detonated here. So far, the area within the barrier is in a state of 'life extinction'" , there are countless fission fragments of the sky sheath remaining in that lake, so extraordinary people are strictly prohibited from entering."

After Gu Xiaoman entered the Tower of Source, he gained high authority.

She became wise very early. Under the guidance of the red dragon, she also read a lot of files over the years, so she naturally knew about such things as sky sheath weapons.

As soon as Baixiu mentioned the sky-sheath weapon, she murmured: "Is that sky-sheath weapon called a child?"

"Yes, childish."

Bai Xiu murmured softly: "The power of a child can shatter hundreds of miles of frozen lakes. A weapon of this magnitude is enough to destroy the world. Even now, I still have no confidence in surviving that kind of explosion... …”

As long as he does not become a god, the body of an extraordinary person cannot resist the fission of the sky sheath no matter how it evolves.

The explosion of children is actually a dimensionality-reducing blow to the level of life!

But back then, there was one person who survived the blow from the Sky Sheath, and he was only at the third level.

Speaking of this, the two of them fell silent.

There is a name that has not been mentioned, but has already entered their hearts.

Gu Xiaoman had read the files from that year. She knew about Central City and Nagano's joint pursuit of the fugitives from the snow cage, and she also knew about Gu Shen's survival in the child explosion.

The Thunder World Walker flew slowly in the air, leaving the blue lake behind, gradually becoming invisible.

After a long time, Gu Xiaoman spoke with a hoarse voice.

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

"unsolved puzzle."

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

Gu Xiaoman was about to speak but stopped, thinking again and again, and finally stopped.

She wanted to say, if that person could survive the child explosion, why couldn't he survive the Sangzhou Cave explosion?

In the first two years after returning to Central Continent, she devoted herself to cultivation, cultivating in the perfect dream created for her by the Tower of Source, and ignored the affairs of the outside world.

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

News of Gu Shen's death spread throughout the five continents. Even if the Tower of Source was extremely powerful, it could not keep it a secret forever.

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

But by that time, peace had completely returned to Wuzhou, and even the Nagano investigation team had taken a break for a while. Because there were no new clues, the investigation team could not continue to advance the investigation.

The world operates the same without anyone else.

Most people still remember Gu Shen's name.

A few people remember that such an "S-class genius" appeared and created many miracles, which is worthy of memory...or mourning.

But everyone remembers that this guy is dead. No matter how talented he is, he is just a corpse.

This is what the world is like. Throughout history, even a person as powerful as Gu Changzhi and as great as the Iron Qiong Emperor of Beizhou, in the end, what he left to the world was nothing more than a handful of loess and a few portraits.

"In the past five years, I have been to the Ice Sea many times."

Baixiu said softly: "I hope to see the scene after the explosion of the frozen lake child, and see Gu Shen appear in front of me... This guy can always create miracles, maybe he is not dead?"

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

"not at all."

Bai Xiu said: "If you have a chance to trial alone next time, don't go to the Ice Sea. There is nothing there. Even if you search very carefully, you can't find someone's body. At most, you can only find Sangzhou Cave. The fragments of land after the island was broken up, as well as the combination of mutated animal spirit excrement.”

This is a bad joke that is not funny.

Gu Xiaoman was a little helpless. She looked at the man in white next to 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 light.

Gu Xiaoman's eyes shone brightly. She saw a spectacular snow-white world. At the end of the tundra were countless snow-capped peaks reaching into the clouds. There were brilliant aurora flashing here, reflecting on the pure white snow, making it look holy and dignified.

"I meditated in the tundra for a long time. The scenery here is beautiful and not many people come."

The Thunder World Walker found a snow mountain to land on.

Baixiu stood on the top of the mountain and laughed softly: "Generally, people from Nagano who send people to look for me can't find a place like this... This is the best pure place in the world. If someone wants to hide any secrets in a place like this, then It will definitely not be discovered.”

"yes……"

Gu Xiaoman stood on the top of the snow mountain, looking at the most beautiful sight he had never seen in his life, and he was in a daze.

Baixiu raised his hand.

The Thunder Walkers dissipated, but the realm also expanded.

The extraordinary energy mechanism above the snow-capped mountains was completely locked.

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

Baixiu stood with his hands behind his back, came to Gu Xiaoman's side, and said: "If you have anything to say, say it now... You can also choose to hold it in, but no matter what, I don't believe that you really came to Tundra. 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."

Baixiu laughed softly and said: "You want to see how terrifying the explosion of the Sky Sheath weapon [Children] is, and whether it can be compared with Sangzhou Cave... The reason why you came to the tundra is to find out what Gu Shen was back then. cause of death."

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

She didn't retreat or hide.

"I don't believe Gu Shen is dead. I saw the [Child] explosion recorded in the file...so I wanted to come to the Tundra to take a look."

Gu Xiaoman's voice was low at first, but soon she raised her voice: "There is nothing shameful about what I do!"

Her true intention of traveling eastward and northward was exposed, and she was a little angry for a moment, but in fact she was more aggrieved.

"After entering the Tower of Source, I can't step into Dongzhou openly. I can't go to Nagano, and I can't go to Dadu... Even if I travel alone, the news of leaving Central Continent cannot be announced to the outside world."

"I want to come to Dongzhou to see it, but the only place I can set foot in is the tundra!"

As she spoke, her eyes became a little moist.

"I still remember the scene when we were saying goodbye five years ago. He promised me that we would meet again..."

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

Gu Xiaoman tightened his sleeves.

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

She thought about how well Gu Shen treated her.

Think about it every day.

Because she was in the darkness, there was a person who opened the door to light for her, so every ray of light she saw from now on would remind her of the person who opened the door in the first place.

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

But Gu Shen died in Sangzhou Cave...

These promises are like the lies of a liar.

Gu Xiaoman raised her hands and spread them to her mouth. She shouted with all her strength to the snow-capped mountains in front of her.

"Gu Shen! You big liar!"
