Zhou Fan and the three of them came out of the ice forest.

Because of the cloudy sky, the Thousand Illusion Snow Mountains seem to be shrouded in a layer of black mist, and the fine snow falls with the breeze.

Zhou Fan first habitually looked around at both sides of the mountain, but still didn't see any figures.

The squads of candidates either hadn't started or had already climbed up.

Zhou Fan and the three of them did not stop for long, and walked towards the Thousand Illusions Snow Mountain, but when they reached the edge of the Snow Mountain, they did not rush to climb up, but began to rush along the edge of the Snow Mountain.

After the information he got from Gu Yan, Huang Bujue or the book in the past few days, Zhou Fan already knew that before climbing the Thousand Illusion Snow Mountain, it was best to find a suitable climbing route.

However, the Thousand Illusion Snow Mountain is inaccessible, and few people know where the safest route is to climb the Thousand Illusion Snow Mountain, after all, no one has heard of anyone who has climbed to the top of the Snow Mountain.

Therefore, there is no climbing route that can safely reach the peak of the snow-capped mountain, at least this is not something that Zhou Fan can know.

They were looking for a relatively safe climbing route in the middle and lower levels of the snow-capped mountains.

Even if the Thousand Illusion Snow Mountain is inaccessible, there will be occasional warrior monks who will come, and they may leave road signs.

Zhou Fan and they ran for a while before stopping.

They found the road sign, and there was a dead corpse dried by ice and snow on the mountain rock one zhang away from them, its body was half buried in the mountain soil, with its back to Zhou Fan and the others, as if looking up at the Thousand Illusions Snow Mountain.

Many of the so-called road signs are left by people trying to challenge the snow-capped mountain, but there are also signs made of huge rocks or wild beasts that have been moved.

Zhou Fan and the three of them cautiously approached the dead corpse, because it might be a trap.

Sure enough, when they were three feet away from the dead corpse, dense patina worms suddenly crawled out of the dead corpse, and the small worms landed and crawled towards Zhou Fan and the three of them.

"Be careful, it's a patina silkworm. Gu Yan opened his mouth to remind.

All three of them took a few steps back in unison.

When the patina silkworm crawled halfway quickly, it also flapped its wings and flew up, and its bodies were covered with patina flames, like moths dyed with flames to extinguish a fire.

"It's just a bug. Huang Bujue waved the fan in his hand.

A gust of wind formed in the folding fan, rolling up towards the patina silkworms, blowing out the flames on the bodies of dozens of patina silkworms, crushing them into countless fine insect bodies.

Worm bodies are scattered on the snow.

But at this time, there were three more fist-sized insects on the snow, their whole body was black, their compound eyes protruded, and they came out of their mouths to devour the body of the patina silkworm.

"It's insect eater. Huang Bujue's face changed slightly.

Insect insectivorous insects are a kind of vicious spirit insects that feed on insects, but this evil spirit insects do not only feed on insects, sometimes they will be hungry when they are hungry.

"Don't let them feed on the worms, or there will be second-order changes, and it will be difficult to deal with. Gu Yan punched one of the insects that ate insects.

The fist gang was about to tear apart an insect eater, but this insect eater let out a scream, and suddenly rolled, revealing four slender insect feet, it became like a foot on stilts, running on the snow like a phantom, avoiding the fist gang.

The fist left a deep fist mark on the snow.

And the insect eater has already pounced on Gu Yan.

"It's actually a satiety insect eater, which opens the second-order change. Gu Yan snorted coldly and swung his fists towards the insects.

The other two insects also stopped eating and exposed their slender insect feet, attacking Zhou Fan and Huang Bujue respectively.

Zhou Fan raised his eyebrows, he drew his knife to fight, just a few moves, and his fast knife split the insects that dared to attack him into several sections.

This insect eats insects and moves quickly, and its bite is amazing, but the body of the insect is not so hard that it cannot be split.

Gu Yan and Huang Bujue also didn't have much effort to kill the insects.

After killing the patina silkworm and the insect eater one after another, Huang Bujue took out a talisman from the talisman bag, and let the talisman fall to the ground, turning into a flame and burning, and soon burned to only half of it.

Zhou Fan recognized at a glance that this was an evil talisman, and the evil talisman could test whether there were toxins around.

Huang Bujue explained: "The Bronze Silkworm and the Insect Eater should be left here by the people of the Western Barbarian Insect Sect, I want to see if there are some poisons here that are not easy to detect by the eyes." ”

When it comes to the Western Barbarian Insect Sect, Huang Bujue's face is slightly condensed, the Western Barbarian Insect Sect is the most feared sect of the Great Wei Warrior Monks, not that this sect is stronger than the Academy and the Great Buddha Temple, in fact, in terms of strength, the Western Barbarian Insect Sect is not as good as the Academy and the Great Buddha Temple, and what makes people afraid is that the methods of the Western Barbarian Insect Sect are too vicious and vicious.

The people of the Western Barbarian Worm Sect like to use poison and insects to fight the enemy.

Zhou Fan had also heard some rumors about the Western Barbarian Insect Sect, and his face changed slightly.

"I heard that the Xiban Insect Sect sent a very powerful disciple to Gaoxiang County to participate in this exam, and he released these two kinds of insects, not only to use the insects to prevent candidates from climbing here, but also to promote this climbing route for him to occupy. Gu Yan said with a smile.

"I think so. Huang Bujue also agrees with Gu Yan's statement.

The two looked at Zhou Fan, if Zhou Fan gave up this route, then they could take another route.

Zhou Fan did not rush to answer, but walked to the dead corpse, carefully investigated, and confirmed that the dead corpse did not have any traces of being moved, he was afraid of being misled.

After all, there may be candidates who deliberately use road signs to mislead other competitors.

There is no problem with the road signs, which means that the candidates of the Naxi Barbarian Sect are likely to have chosen this climbing route.

Zhou Fan raised his head and watched for a while before slowly asking, "How powerful are the candidates of the Western Barbarian Insect Sect?"

"Very powerful, the academy predicts that this candidate named Wen Xiao has a good chance of successfully entering Class A. Kohiko replied.

"In that case, let's go down this road. Zhou Fan said.

Huang Bujue and Gu Yan were both slightly stunned, and Huang Bujue said, "What is the reason?

After a few days of getting along, Huang Bujue didn't think that Zhou Fan was the kind of person who would fight for anger.

"Not really. Zhou Fan shook his head with a smile and said: "Since he has climbed up and is so powerful, some obstacles on the snowy mountain road will be cleared by him, so that we only need to deal with the traps he may leave behind, but compared to those obstacles, this will always be much easier." ”

Warrior monks are always easier to deal with than unknown monsters.

This is equivalent to Wen Xiao breaking the strongest wind and snow for him, where can I find such a good thing?

"But what if something happens?" asked Furuhiko.

"Then we'll go a little slower, if we really encounter it, we can only compete with him, I think he will open the way for us in front, there will always be a bigger loss than us, calculated, or we have an advantage. Zhou Fan said with a smile again.

On the whole, Zhou Fan believes that this is a good thing that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

"And even if we don't go up from this route, we may still meet other great candidates if we change to other routes, if you are worried about this, I think I should not go up. Zhou Fan thought about it and said.

"There's something unique about you. Huang Bujue chuckled, if ordinary people knew that it was Wen Xiao in front of them, I am afraid they would subconsciously avoid it, where would they think like Zhou Fan could use Wen Xiao to open the way for him?
