The year-end competition of Dongling Academy is set around mid-December, although there is still more than half a month before the end of the year, but it has already begun.

However, this is only the preliminary round in the early stage, and it is mainly based on screening.

Each house has a certain number of places, and after a sufficient number of places have been contested, a real competition will be held after the end of the year.

It's October, and there are only two days left for Han Chen.

It's a bit urgent!

Ascending the East Spirit Peak alone, and walking along the path, Han Chen soon came to a large hall.

The main hall is built near the mountain, majestic and magnificent, quite atmospheric. There were people coming and going in front of the main hall, and many students were in a hurry, stepping into the main hall, and there were also many students who came out of it and left.

"Ice Valley!"

Looking at the door plaque on the main hall, Han Chen exhaled lightly and walked in.

The internal space of the main hall is extremely spacious, with twenty-four thick white pillars distributed around, and a wide corridor leads directly to the inside of the main hall.

"I'm going to enter the Ice and Snow Valley!" Han Chen said respectfully as he came to a gray-robed old woman.

Like Nadanlou, there is also an elder in this Ice and Snow Valley, who guards it, and it is the gray-robed old woman in front of her, named Xue Yuzi.

"How long has it been in?" The gray-robed old woman raised her eyelids slightly, glanced at Han Chen, and asked lightly.

"Two months!"

The specific time, Han Chen himself is not sure, after all, the rules of heaven and earth are so mysterious, it is not so easy to comprehend, anyway, two months is all the time he has left, and he plans to spend it all here.

"Ice and Snow Valley requires two hundred bronze sword seals a day. Two months, 12,000 bronze sword seals!" The old woman's voice was still indifferent.

Hearing this, Han Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

According to Han Linger and others. This Ice and Snow Valley is only a relatively low-level of the many cultivation secret realms of Dongling Academy, and the copper sword seal consumed is not much, only two hundred a day.

Changed to other high-level cultivation secret realms, the consumption was even more amazing, such as the blood-colored battlefield, which required a thousand bronze sword seals a day. Enlightenment Qi Cultivation Tower. It takes two thousand copper sword seals to consume a day. The battlefield of the gods requires a full five thousand bronze sword seals a day.

And among them. The Dongling Sword Tower is even more terrifying, and it is opened once every six months, every time. You need 10,000 bronze sword seals to enter.

In comparison, Han Chen's current net worth is really not enough.

It's just that you still have to use it, and the bronze sword seal is gone, so you can only work hard to earn it in the future.

With distress, he handed over the bronze sword order.

"Two months, deduct 12,000 bronze sword seals, if you come out early. You can come here to pick up the remaining Bronze Sword Seal. If the time is exceeded, the bronze sword seal needs to be replenished!" As he spoke, he handed the bronze sword order back to Han Chen.

Han Chen nodded. As a result, the bronze sword seal turned around and walked towards the inside of the main hall.

Inside the main hall, there is a high platform, the high platform is more than ten zhang longitudinal and horizontal, and there is a huge portal on it, rippling and rippling. The glow flickers.

This is the portal to the Valley of Ice.

stepped up to the high platform without hesitation. Step into the portal.

For a while, the sky was spinning, the eight directions were reversed, and then, a chill hit, and Han Chen's eyes were clear.

"Is this the Ice Valley?"

Raising his eyes and looking around, Han Chen's face showed a look of surprise.

This is a world of ice and snow, and as far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are white.

Snow peaks, snow forests, snow fields, and so on, all of them are covered with a thick layer of snow.

There is still goose feather snow in the sky, which is sprinkled and blurs people's vision.

The cold wind howled, brushing through the skin, and the biting chill instantly swept through the whole body, and even poured into the body, turning into cold poison, eroding the flesh, muscles, bones, and cyclone true element.

It's just that this kind of chill that ordinary people can't stand doesn't hurt Han Chen at all.

Under the ice spirit, all the water attribute energy is completely surrendered. The cold poison that invaded his body only made him feel refreshed.

If Lanling knew this, I am afraid he could only sigh helplessly.

During the lecture that day, she also reminded Han Chen to pay attention to the cold invasion in this ice and snow valley and not to wait for a long time.

But where did he think that Han Chen's physique turned out to be a cold ice spirit body, and the chill in the Ice and Snow Valley couldn't hurt him in the slightest, so he could stay as long as he wanted.

"It's been a long time since I've felt this feeling!"

His eyes narrowed slightly, his arms were outstretched, and Han Chen's face showed a look of enjoyment.

Since leaving the 100,000 Great Mountain, he hadn't experienced such a pleasant feeling for a long time.

"Forget it, time is pressing, let's find a place first and start to enlighten!"

Han Chen is not the only one in this Ice and Snow Valley, it is very important to understand the rules of heaven and earth, and he must not be disturbed, so this place to settle down needs to be carefully chosen.

Scanning his eyes around, Han Chen's brows furrowed, there are too many snow peaks here, and there are even more snow forests, it is really a little difficult to find.

Since it's hard to find on the ground, look for it in the sky!

As soon as his mind moved, there was a 'bang', and Qingluan's wings appeared and unfolded. Han Chen flapped his wings, jumped into the air, shuttled through the heavy snow, and quickly searched for it.

However, Han Chen was not reckless, and while searching, he released the soul perception without leaving anything behind, bypassing those students who were contemplating enlightenment, and avoiding disturbance.

After more than an hour, Han Chen finally found a satisfactory place.

On the cliff of a snowy peak, there is a cave, the entrance of the cave is blocked by snow, leaving no gaps, even if you get close, you can't find it, if it weren't for Han Chen's keen soul perception, you won't find it.

Shaking the snow away, Han Chen entered the cave and took a look, his face showing satisfaction.

The cave is not deep, only about three meters, but it is very dry, and there is a platform at the entrance of the cave, which extends slightly outward, about half a meter, just enough for people to sit on the ground.

With the heavy snow in front of you, and the view is wide, you can see it far away, and this place is an excellent place to watch the snow and see it.

"It's right here!" In a flash of light, Guiguzi slowly emerged.

"Hmm!"

Even if Guiguzi didn't say it, Han Chen wasn't ready to change places anymore.

"But it's also quite conspicuous here, and it's here to see. It's also easier to be disturbed!" Guiguzi said again.

The voice fell, and Guiguzi flew out of the cave and jumped into the air.

His eyes looked around. Then he fell again, took ninety-nine mid-grade spirit cores from Han Chen's empty ring, and flew into the sky again.

Raising his hand and waving continuously, one by one the Zhongpin Spirit Core shattered the snowflakes and shot out in all directions.

The spirit core was thrown closer, and Guiguzi raised his hand to seal it.

"Three Clouds Hidden Array, Kai!"

A soft snort. The strong soul power poured out from Guiguzi's body and spread outward.

The void rippled. But in the blink of an eye, the calm is repeated.

"Okay, now that no one can get close, you should hurry up and understand!" fell. Guiguzi said with a smile.

The Sanyun Hidden Array was arranged as early as the 100,000 Great Mountains, which could not only converge the aura, but also have the effect of the Mystery Array, which made people unconsciously bypass it.

At this time, it is the most suitable for use.

Han Chen nodded, and without delay, he sat on the ground, just about to close his eyes and comprehend. After thinking about it, with a flick of his fingers, he took out the jade slip of perception that Tie Li had given him at the beginning.

In this jade slip. There are not only many perceptions such as Tie Li's comprehension of artistic conception and sword intent, but also some necessary bottlenecks and insights when breaking through.

Among them, the Sword King broke through and comprehended the rules of heaven and earth, and there were also points.

It's just that Tie Li comprehends the artistic conception of iron. What is comprehended is also the rule of iron, and the cold rule that Han Chen wants to comprehend. Completely different.

However, all laws have the same origin, and different paths lead to the same end.

Although the rules of heaven and earth to be understood are different, some of the experiences of enlightenment are not harmful.

Holding the jade slip in his hand, Han Chen closed his eyes, his mood was calm, his breathing was slow, and he completely emptied his mind, allowing himself to enter an ethereal state, feeling the qiē around him, and comprehending this world.

Soon, Han Chen completely sank into enlightenment!

Time passed, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Han Chen in the Ice and Snow Valley is still continuing to comprehend the rules of heaven and earth and seek a breakthrough.

This is an unavoidable hurdle in cultivation, no matter how talented you are, you will stay on this hurdle.

The only difference is the length of stay.

With high talent, with strong understanding, you can step through it in a short time. And those with poor talent will stay for a long time, or even for life, and they will not be able to break through.

From Han Chen's promotion to the peak of the Nine-Star Sword King, it has only been half a year so far, and he is not in a hurry. What's more, right now, he is about to break through again, which is already extremely good.

Every day, when the mood is turbulent, I will put it down first, practice the sword, and confirm each other with the experience and understanding of the jade slips that I have learned in recent days, and sort it out.

Rest enough, calm your mind, and continue to sink into enlightenment

Dongling Academy.

Han Ling'er and the others also practiced in an orderly manner every day, and in their spare time, they would also get together to communicate with each other and confirm their cultivation insights.

It is worth mentioning that Han Meiyao's injuries have fully recovered.

The Purple Vein Leaving the Meteoric Pill lived up to expectations, and it took a full day to completely refine the medicinal power, and the hundred veins in the body were reborn, stronger than before.

The true yuan that had been stagnant in the dantian for a long time was like a flood, running wildly in the meridians, and the long-lost feeling of pleasure made Han Meiyao couldn't help but cry with joy.

With her stubborn temperament, laughing and crying, you can see how much pain she has endured during this time.

In addition to Han Meiyao, there was also news that surprised Han Linger and others.

That is Han Qian.

After Han Chen entered the Ice and Snow Valley retreat, Han Qian cultivated the "Fire Burning Gong", but in only ten days, his cultivation broke through one after another, reaching the five-star sword master realm, which was on par with his physical strength.

After the cultivation was promoted, some changes occurred in Han Qian's body.

Talent has been improved and has reached the mid-grade level!

That's right, it's to improve your talent!

In the past, Han Qian's talent was only at the inferior level, which was extremely poor. Now it has reached the middle grade level, and it has been upgraded by a whole grade.

Although the talent of the middle grade level is still ordinary, especially in this Dongling Academy, it is still extremely poor.

But it still shocked Han Linger and others.

To improve your talent, you need to rely on some pills, but it is not surprising, because there are indeed some high-grade pills that have such powerful effects.

But Han Qiancong did not rely on pills, but cultivated to improve, and his talent improved with it.

Unheard of, it's like Warcraft Evolution! (To be continued)
