After putting on light armor inlaid with copper, he took the first step out of the armory-like cabin, and a bone-deep chill immediately hit his face.

Looking at the light snow covering the barren mountains, Lin Xi knew that without the college cloak that could be used to keep out the cold, the following night would definitely be more difficult than in the half-snowed wilderness.

After walking a few steps in the snow and stopping to observe for a moment, Lin Xi couldn't help but shake her head.

Because what is falling in the sky is strictly ice sand, which is smaller than real flying snow, but much denser and firmer. Therefore, although the snow is not too thick, it is very firm, and there is only a faint sliver when you step on it.

Judging from the way the ice and sand are blown by the mountain wind, the footprints will probably be completely invisible after more than two hours.

Lin Xi sensed the direction of the wind, looked up at the direction, and took a look at the sky.

The sky is clear, and I'm afraid the next two days will be very fine.

While Lin Xi was doing these things, Bian Linghan had also walked out of another wooden house.

The two of them broke off several pine branches with dense pine needles at the same time and tied them to their feet. This method could make the marks they left on the snow lighter and disappear faster.

Then the two people quickly got into the jungle, trying not to make any noise and heading towards the direction of Peak No. 5 marked on the map. At the same time, they quickly removed several large copper pieces inlaid on the light armor on their bodies, and placed them on the ground.

I also started to simply tie some pine branches around my body.

No practitioner would think that this thin piece of copper would be of any use between practitioners' battles, and in this sunny snowy weather, this kind of copper sheet is more reflective and can easily be seen from a distance.

The enemy on the high ground discovered and exposed the traces.

However, these thin copper sheets were also of great use to Lin Xi, especially the several palm-sized thin copper sheets on the chest, which could easily be rolled into vessels that could be used for cooking in such a wild environment.

….

More than an hour later, Lin Xi had already lit a fire in a mid-mountain col, while Bian Linghan had climbed up a nearby pine tree with the best view to hide and take charge of keeping watch.

The fire was lit in front of a crack in the mountain. The wind direction at this time caused all the smoke from the fire to be blown into the crack in the mountain.

This is what they learned in the wilderness survival course at Qingluan College.

As long as you judge the wind direction and choose a suitable mountain crack, in this kind of weather, the water vapor in the smoke will quickly condense in the mountain. After being filtered by the folded mountain cracks, there will be almost no obvious smoke seepage.

And was discovered.

At this moment, several pieces of copper removed from the light armor had been rolled by Lin Xi into several bowl-shaped vessels, in which some amber-like rosin was boiled.

In this cold plateau area, rosin melted very slowly, but Lin Xi was very meticulous and patient.

After all the rosin melted into a light yellow liquid, Lin Xi quickly sprinkled it with white ash made from burning roots of certain plants. The rosin quickly turned into milky white, but some of the impurities and ashes combined and precipitated.

After it was removed, the top layer of sticky fat became clear and transparent, and changed from light yellow to white with light green color.

Lin Xi collected all this layer of sticky fat and put it all into a vessel made of rolled copper sheets to keep the sticky fat in a melted state.

Then he used a blowpipe made of hollowed out dead branches and blew the fire as hard as he could, causing the fire to burn until all the sticky grease boiled and began to vaporize.

The black arrows were put up and smoked like strips of bacon... With Lin Xi's constant adjustments, it took nearly half an hour to coat all the black arrows with a layer of coating.

The white resin coating looks like a white sheen and exudes a unique fragrance of resin.

Looking at these arrows that had completely changed their appearance, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh in her heart again about the magic of some of the academy's methods. Such effects could be achieved by just using the most common rosin in the Dentian Mountains and some unique rhizome ashes.

And Lin Xi knew very well that he just used one of the recipes Tong Wei taught him.

The other two formulas can plate the arrows in cyan or still in black, which are respectively used for denser vegetation, green rainforest environments and night sniping.

The current white color is naturally more suitable in such a land of ice and snow.

Lin Xi began to carefully test the completely cooled arrows one by one. Finally, he put away the forty-seven arrows that had turned white, burned all the remaining arrows, and buried all the arrowheads.

The boiled rosin and other substances were not wasted at all. He and Bian Linghan applied them all thinly on their light armor. The original Yunqin standard black light armor almost all turned into white. The two of them walked on

In this icy mountain wilderness, if you are far away, it will be difficult to see.

…

Just when Lin Xi and Bian Linghan were finally ready and started searching with all their strength, Yuhua Tianji was walking in the shade of a ridge.

Because it is shaded all year round, the ice and snow here are slipperier and the air is colder.

The food that I had brought with me had been consumed on the way to the two wooden houses, and according to the rules of the competition, it was not allowed to carry anything taken out of the academy. From last night to now, Yuhua Tianji has not

He can eat anything, but the Yuhua family has been extremely miserable all year round, and his masochistic practice has made his appetite much smaller than that of ordinary practitioners. Not only has his appetite been much smaller than that of ordinary practitioners, but it has also made him

He could eat without frowning some extremely bitter and unpalatable food that would be difficult for ordinary monks to swallow, and would even cause severe vomiting.

Moreover, he is also better able to endure hunger and can get rid of the panic caused by hunger from his body.

The priests of Yunqin and the ascetics of Tangzang were originally the most tolerant beings in the world.

Therefore, Yuhua Tianji had no intention of hunting at all, and his strong self-control ability prevented him from deviating in judgment due to hunger within three days.

He just silently checked the situation around him and moved forward at an almost constant speed.

A strong wind blew by, and a bush in the dark place was blown to one side, and then stood up all over again.

This is a very common sight in this mountain forest, but Yuhua Tianji immediately walked towards the bush, squatted down, and carefully looked at everything around him.

Among the shrubs that seemed to have no abnormality, some of the twigs on the shrubs were missing. Yuhua Tianji also casually broke a twig, and some sap immediately oozed from the break. He removed the twigs.

He cut off the young branches and chewed them slowly in his mouth. The taste was very sour, but he felt that the fibers were very crisp and tender, and the juice did not make him feel any discomfort... So although he did not know the name of this shrub, Yuhua Wuji

I immediately made a judgment in my mind that it was edible.

After he swallowed the tender fiber, which was not difficult to swallow, he began to look around more carefully, but other than finding that someone must have broken off some twigs for consumption, he found nothing.

Without much hesitation, Yuhua Wuji began to walk quickly to the north.

From where he was at the moment, he was heading north towards the snowy peaks of the main mountain range of the Dentian Mountains. Ordinary people would never think of rushing to a higher altitude and colder place, but he, who was born in the Yuhua family, did not.

They are very aware of the mentality of most prisoners. Driven by fear, they often flee to places with worse environments and more inaccessible places.

But less than two hours later, when the sun was the brightest in this wasteland, Yuhua Tianji suddenly stopped in front of a short field, facing several dead trees bent by ice and snow, and shouted vigilantly:

"Come out."

After five or six breaths, seeing no reaction at all, Yuhua Tianji waved the short spear in his hand, as if he was about to throw it out hard. At this moment, with a crash, a spear emerged from the dead trees.

A figure appeared and fled away from Yuhua Tianji in an extremely hasty manner. However, the figure was obviously too stiff. After running less than ten steps, he fell twice in a row.

Yuhua Tianji made no move, but just said in a somewhat hollow voice like a preacher: "I am a member of the Yuhua family and a student of Qingluan College. In the name of the Yuhua family and Qingluan College, I will give you salvation.

As long as you follow me out of the mountain, you will receive amnesty."

The fleeing figure suddenly stopped, but failed to stand firm and fell heavily again.

Yuhua Tianji walked towards the prisoner wearing a ragged gray robe, his golden hair shining brighter than the sun.

The prisoner who fell to the ground was on the verge of collapse due to fear and doubt, as well as exhaustion. What made Yuhua Wuji slightly startled was that this prisoner turned out to be a handsome man.

Good girl.

Her hair was almost all stuck together, and her face was covered with bloodstains from the whipping.

"It's over... you will receive amnesty, and sin and darkness will leave you." Yuhua Tianji felt even more pity in his heart. He walked up to the young prisoner who was deeply entangled with fear and misfortune, and wanted to save her first.

He helped him up. However, at this moment, a strange blush suddenly appeared on his originally pale face.

Because at this moment, the girl prisoner, who was shaking and almost convulsing, suddenly showed him a bright smile. At the same time, her hand had already emerged from her sleeves with a gleam of cold light, pointing towards his heart.

Come on!

In this breath, he only had time to shrink back, and the smile on the blood-stained face of the girl who was suddenly filled with explosive power was like an exceptionally enchanting flower, and the black dagger in her hand struck fiercely.

His left shoulder was pierced diagonally downward! Steaming blood splashed out on Yuhua Tianji's shoulder. At the same time, her strong and slender legs kicked Yuhua Wuji's body extremely powerfully.
