Chapter 1431 Bounty Mission
The next morning, Li Mo took Xiao Ji and set out on a journey to find the iceberg snow lotus. Iceberg Snow Lotus likes to grow off the beaten track. Out of the Far North Ice Palace. Li Mo and Xiao Zhen kept going north.
It was noon that the two of them stopped. Before leaving, Li Mo had found a disciple in the sect and bought a map of the area around the Extreme North Drifting Ice Palace with a lot of money. Follow the map.
Iceberg Snow Lotus prefers cold environments. Often grows on cliff faces.
Li Mo and Xiao Zhen stood at the foot of a mountain peak at this time, only to see that this mountain peak was covered with ice and snow, about a hundred zhang high, and the surface was very smooth. From time to time, a few birds fly past the top of the mountain, leaving behind a few crisp birdsongs. There was silence all around. It's as if no one has been to this place since ancient times. Take a short break. Li Mo and Xiao Zhen began to look for the traces of the iceberg snow lotus
According to the records, iceberg snow lotus likes to grow on cliffs. The more inaccessible the place, the greater the probability of finding an iceberg snow lotus. The place where Li Mo and Xiao Zhen were at this time was very remote and desolate. Generally no one will come to such a place.
Li Mo looked up and saw that the mountain was steep, especially the surface of the peak was smooth, and it was extremely difficult to climb.
Faced with this situation, Li Mo had already been prepared, and when he saw a flash in his hand, there was an extra pair of flying claws, this flying claw was shiny and very textured, which Li Mo borrowed from Shen Qing before leaving.
When he first took the introductory test, Shen Qing showed his head with this flying claw, and it was also seen that this flying claw was definitely a mountain climbing weapon.
Li Mo made full preparations before leaving, and prepared a large number of necessary materials, such as tents, water and some things needed for traveling, to fill his storage ring.
Therefore, although the journey is tiring, there is no shortage of daily necessities.
After Li Mo took out the flying claw, he tried it on his hand, only to see that it was a cold touch, which was extremely suitable, this flying claw actually had the function of automatic retraction, Shen Qing, this kid is really wealthy, this simple pair of flying claws must be expensive, but the fact that he was able to lend this flying claw to Li Mo without saying a word also fully shows that he regards Li Mo as his true friend.
Li Mo put on the flying claw and tried it on the mountain wall, only to see that there was a burst of softness in his hand, and he actually grabbed the mountain wall.
Li Mo felt the thickness in his hands, and couldn't help but praise in his heart, this is really a weapon for climbing mountains.
Li Mo greeted Xiao Zhen and ordered Xiao Zhen to wait for him in place and not to go far. It's not that Li Mo is not worried about Xiao Zhen, but Xiao Zhen's lazy and greedy temperament, maybe he was attracted by something.
After receiving Xiaoji's affirmative promise, Li Mo put his mind at ease, and then climbed towards the mountain wall.
I saw that this mountain wall was smooth throughout, if it weren't for Shen Qing's flying claws, Li Mo really had no choice.
After a cup of tea, Li Mo had already climbed dozens of zhang, and at this time he had climbed half the distance.
Li Mo took a breath, looked down and saw that the small mark had become a small black dot.
Li Mo settled down, and then continued to climb up, and at this moment, he saw a white shadow, which shot towards Li Mo like lightning, and then a fishy breath came to his face.
Li Mo was taken aback, and hurriedly raised the iron claw in his hand, only to hear the "bang". A small white snake collided with the iron claws in his hand.
I saw that this little white snake, more than a foot long, pure white all over, but it was as hard as iron, and there was a trace of cold air in its mouth, which was a common ice snake in the Arctic Ice Plain. This ice snake is a first-class demon beast. Brutal by nature, numerous, and likes to live in groups, extremely vindictive, as long as one appears, it means that the snake group is not far away.
Although the strength of the ice snake is not strong, it is only a first-level demon beast, but because of its large number, if it is entangled, it is also very difficult to deal with.
Li Mo looked at the corpse of the ice snake in his hand, and shouted in his heart, the snake group must be nearby, if you provoke the snake group, then it will be a big trouble. And at this moment, the sound of "sizzling" and "sizzling" continued to sound in Li Mo's ears.
I saw ice snakes appear on the cliffs, densely packed, there were a hundred and ten.
"It's not good, it's a group of snakes" Li Mo shouted in his heart.
At this time, I saw white figures rushing towards Li Mo. Like white arrows.
Li Mo was in the middle of the cliff at this time, so he had to insert one hand into the cliff, and wave the iron claw in his hand with the other hand to block the flying ice snakes one by one.
I saw the attack of the ice snake, like a storm. Li Mo kept waving the iron claws in his hand. One by one, ice snakes flew out of the air and fell downward, like rain.
After another half a cup of tea, the attack of the ice snake came to an end, perhaps the ice snake saw the gap between the two sides and temporarily retreated. Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the ice snake has temporarily passed this level.
Waving the iron claw in his hand, Li Mo continued to climb upward, and after another cup of tea, Li Mo saw the edge of the mountaintop. At this time, a breeze blew, and a faint fragrance hit Li Mo's nose.
Li Mo only felt relaxed and happy, "It should be the iceberg snow lotus, today's luck is not bad!" Li Mo exclaimed in his heart.
Thinking of this, Li Mo couldn't help but speed up his upward climb. After another moment, Li Mo climbed to the top of the mountain.
I saw that the top of the mountain was as smooth as a mirror, and it was flat, as if it had been cut by a knife. Li Mo climbed to the top of the mountain and stood still, only to feel that his heart was drunk, and he looked at the white expanse in the distance.
In the center of the mountaintop, a white lotus plant stands quietly, exuding a faint fragrance. I saw that this white lotus stem was short and thick, with dense leaves, and a long and flat petiole, which was the iceberg snow lotus that Li Mo was looking for.
Before leaving, Li Mo had purchased a copy of "Hundred Things" in the sect, which was dedicated to recording all kinds of demon beast elixirs, although the price was expensive, but it was extremely useful, so Li Mo still couldn't bear the pain. Because he knows it's a must-have for traveling.
Li Mo looked at the iceberg snow lotus in front of him, as if he saw the meritorious value beckoning to him.
What surprised Li Mo even more was that according to the records in the book, the iceberg snow lotus in front of him had reached the verge of maturity.
Li Mo stepped forward to pick it up, even if he had completed the reward task. I saw Li Mo take out a jade box from the storage ring, and prepared to put it in it after picking the iceberg snow lotus later.
Iceberg Snow Lotus is a precious elixir, from growth to picking to use has a strict and unique method, if not properly preserved, the medicine will be damaged, and the hard work will be in vain.
Just as Li Mo was about to go forward to pick this iceberg snow lotus, a question suddenly flashed in his heart, "According to the records of the "Hundred Things" and the legends of everyone, when this iceberg snow lotus is ripe, there must be demon beasts guarding it?
He stopped, then looked around. At this time, I heard a sharp birdsong, and then a black figure pounced towards Li Mo.
Li Mo, who had been prepared for a long time, was not in a hurry. He moved three feet forward with a slight movement, dodging the fatal blow.
Li Mo turned around and looked at what had launched a surprise attack on him. Well, this is a black unknown bird monster, he looks like a big eagle that has been magnified three or five times. It has wide wings, a sharp mouth, and two huge claws that seem to be made of iron. The brass bell-like eyes shone with a murderous light.
This kind of demon beast Li Mo also knows, called the chickpemon, which is a sixth-level demon beast. This chickpeas is ferocious by nature, likes to be alone, and is a flying monster.
Generally speaking, flying monsters are relatively rare, but they are all powerful, because they have a unique advantage and have a pair of wings, so they have air superiority.
Generally speaking, monks can only learn various spells and have the opportunity to learn the art of flight only if they become spiritual priests after they have been enlightened. Before becoming a spiritual warrior, monks were at a disadvantage in the battle against flying demon beasts, because flying demon beasts were generally more agile, plus they had wings, and they would often retreat if they missed a single blow. This tactic is a headache for many people, and many warriors try to avoid fighting when they encounter flying monsters.
Li Mo looked at the chickpeus in front of him, and had a headache in his heart, this iceberg snow lotus grows on this cliff, and there is an chickpeus guarding here, only by completely solving this chickpeus can he pick this snow lotus and complete this bounty task.
This chickpeus is a flying monster, very difficult, and it is like a living target on this cliff.
This chickpeus can't beat itself and can fly away, and he can only go down by completely solving this chickpeus.
And it's not okay to give up this bounty at this time, because this chickpeus has already set its sights on itself, and if he goes down at this time, this beast will definitely attack himself halfway, and at that time, he is really in a dilemma.
Thinking of this, Li Mo smacked his lips, he still thought about this bounty task too simply.
Looking at the chickpeus staring at him, Li Mo had a headache.
The chickpeas seemed to be impatient at this time, let out a terrible cry, and then flapped its wings, setting off a gust of wind towards Li Mo.
Li Mo only felt a strong wind blowing in his face, mixed with ice chips and gravel, like a hidden weapon.
Li Mo secretly cursed in his heart, there was only a three-zhang radius on the top of the mountain, but Li Mo had no way to hide.
Li Mo had no choice but to suffer a blow. Li Mo only felt a bitterness in his mouth. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black dirt, knowing that he couldn't go on like this, and in this case, he had to take the initiative and seize the initiative in this battle.
