I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 549 Skill Drop

When the Great Freedom Demon heard Zhang Chen's words, he quickly shook his head and rejected it: "No! It's really gone this time! If I knew any useful information, why would I hide it from you?"

After hearing what the Great Freedom Demon said, Zhang Chen did not continue to ask. Even if the other party was really hiding something, he would still go to that palm!
Zhang Chen had some ideas about how to deal with that palm.

Zhang Chen put away the Great Freedom Demon and sat in the corner looking at the new buds that had sprouted out of the big tree. Now was the season when grass grew and birds flew, the earth was coming back to life and all things were reviving. The world was finally no longer cold, and for Zhang Chen, the weather was no longer so torturous.

three days later

Zhang Chen prepared everything and once again opened up a secret room deep in the earth. Then he looked at the alchemy furnace filled with charcoal fire, put the furnace in his arms, sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the golden scissors. Now that the golden scissors had been nurtured by Zhang Chen, many cracks on them had disappeared, and the entire golden scissors exuded a new aura.

Zhang Chen stroked the golden scissors and said, "Golden scissors, oh golden scissors, whether we will have a good life in the future depends on you. You can even resist the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, you won't disappoint me, right? I don't expect you to be able to cut it off, even if you can only cut a piece of skin, I will still consider it a credit to you."

After saying this, Zhang Chen put away the golden scissors, and without hesitation, he activated his spiritual realm and entered the third heaven.

Just as he entered the third heaven, a terrifying cold wave hit him. The dead silence that seemed to freeze everything surged in Zhang Chen's heart again, trying to freeze Zhang Chen's thoughts. However, Zhang Chen had already prepared for it. He saw the void energy flowing above his head and the Buzhou Seal floating above his head. The strong divine power spread out and protected Zhang Chen firmly.

Divine power can destroy everything!

The moment the cold air approached Zhang Chen, it seemed as if there was an isolation net, and its power was weakened by at least half!
Although the cold air still poured in through Hanwei, it could not freeze Zhang Chen instantly.

At this time, after seeing Zhang Chen use the Buzhou Seal, the Great Freedom Demon couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and he wanted to slap himself: "I am so stupid! I actually forgot that the ancient god and Buzhou Mountain came from the same source. The core of Buzhou Mountain certainly has the power to resist the law of extreme cold! I am so stupid, how could I forget this! And there is also that divine power, which is inherited from a certain supreme being, who is the source of all things in the world. The combination of the two has great resistance to the freezing of all things."

Zhang Chen had no idea what the Great Freedom Demon was thinking. Since he dared to come and explore this place, it was certainly possible that he was unprepared. He never fought an unprepared battle.

Seeing that the Buzhou Seal and the Divine Might could actually resist the extreme cold force, Zhang Chen's eyes suddenly lit up: "Good! Good! Good! This way, I can buy enough time."

Zhang Chen summoned the golden shears from his magic power, and then after a little contemplation, he summoned a drop of water and stuck it on the golden shears. This was the magical power of Zhang Chen's awakened water control technique. The two water drops could move instantly, but the range was limited to one thousand meters. The distance between the palm and Zhang Chen was ten miles away. Zhang Chen also left a backup in advance to collect the skill of the palm falling.

After attaching the water droplets, Zhang Chen looked at the crystal clear hand in the distance and muttered, "My dear, whether it will work this time depends on you."

As soon as he finished speaking, his magic power activated the golden scissors, which turned into two crisscrossing rays of light, one black and one white, that shot up into the sky, cutting through all obstacles and piercing through the icy force, and rushed towards the palm.

The Great Freedom Demon standing by was stunned when he saw Zhang Chen actually offering the Golden Scissors. "Boy, what's the point of offering the Golden Scissors? Although the Golden Scissors are extremely powerful, they have been severely damaged, and your strength is too weak. You don't think you can shake that hand with the broken Golden Scissors in your hand, do you?"

"I have my own ideas." Zhang Chen said.

The golden scissors were seen emitting divine light, heading towards the palm. However, the palm was flowing with cold air, and when the golden scissors were less than ten miles away from the palm, Zhang Chen's golden scissors actually slowed down gradually, reducing their speed.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Chen's pupils shrank, and he felt worried: "Could it be that the golden shears can't do anything to that hand?"

When the golden scissors were nine miles away from the palm, their speed dropped again, falling to 90% of their original speed.

At this time, the golden scissors' divine light was flowing slowly, and it continued to dance in the cold air. When it reached Bali, its speed had dropped to 70%.

……

By the time it reached the last kilometer, the golden scissors had emerged from the black and white state of escape light, transformed into a pair of scissors, and restored its original appearance.

But at this time, the golden scissors still maintained one tenth of its original speed and continued to fly rapidly in the air.

When Zhang Chen saw this scene, his heart was lifted up. He clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves and prayed silently, hoping that the golden scissors could break through the cold air, even if it was just to wipe his palm.

Although the golden scissors were beaten back to their original shape, they were still flying in the air. However, due to the overwhelming cold air, their flying speed was not very fast.

Just as the speed of the golden scissors was getting slower and slower, and its flying speed was not as fast as that of a bird, the golden scissors still stubbornly flew in the air, and finally arrived one meter in front of the palm, and then the flying speed stopped, and a layer of frost condensed on the entire golden scissors. "What? Just one meter away?" Zhang Chen looked at the golden scissors that had completely stopped flying, and his eyes showed a hint of unwillingness.

Just a little bit!
The golden scissors were just a little bit away from piercing the palm.

A distance of one meter is like a natural chasm.

A difference of one meter can make a huge difference!

"Don't you think about it? The cold air emitted by that palm has such a terrifying power. The closer you are to that palm, the more terrifying the cold air will be. Your golden scissors are already broken, and with your tiny magic power, it's rare to get within one meter of it." The Great Freedom Demon comforted Zhang Chen beside him.

Zhang Chen was silent. You know, the golden shears could be regarded as his strongest attack method at the moment. If the golden shears couldn't even get close to that hand, wouldn't his plan fail? Would the four million experience points be wasted?

Moreover, the golden scissors fell near his palm and he couldn't take them back. Wouldn't he have to lose another treasure?
You have to know that the golden scissors are his last resort, and they are much more important than the solar charcoal fire.

Just when Zhang Chen was feeling secretly disappointed, he suddenly saw the golden scissors freely falling from the void, and then hit the frozen ground. The ice on the ground was like steel, which directly bounced the golden scissors into the air. Then, as luck would have it, the tip of the golden scissors actually hit the skin of his palm directly, and the next moment, a blue light ball fell from the palm.

"It's done!" Zhang Chen's eyes lit up when he saw the ball of light falling from his palm. He just didn't know whether the ball of light was a skill or experience value. However, according to Zhang Chen's estimation and past experience, it should be a skill value.

However, Zhang Chen was ten miles away from the dropped skill, which was five thousand meters. Even if Zhang Chen used instant teleportation, he would need to be close to one thousand meters to be effective.

“The closer I get to that palm, the colder it gets, and the shorter the stove will last. If I want to get closer, I can only take a gamble! I now have the Buzhou Seal and the protection of divine power, so I have resistance to the cold, so I may as well give it a try. At least I now have a chance to make mistakes, and even if an accident really happens, I will be able to react and evacuate.” Zhang Chen made up his mind, and the next moment he suddenly began to accelerate, paddling on his ice skates at high speed, speeding through the cold wind, and rushing towards the direction of the palm.

He knew his own business. The flame in the furnace could not last long, so he had to race against time to slide.

As Zhang Chen slid on the ice and snow, he noticed the change in temperature difference in the air. About every thousand meters, there would be a huge temperature difference cliff. Every thousand meters, the temperature difference between the front and the back would be a huge change.

Fortunately, with the Divine Power and the Buzhou Seal, Zhang Chen was still able to endure it.

When Zhang Chen passed through the first temperature difference, he only felt the cold wind blowing on his face and his body was slightly cold.

When he passed through the second temperature difference, his temples were already frosted.

When it passed through the third temperature difference, its ears had turned red and its cheeks were also bright red.

……

When he passed through the fifth temperature difference, his body began to stiffen, as if he had been frozen in the northeast at minus 30 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes. His whole body became stiff and his fingers had lost sensation.

"I'm almost reaching my limit." Zhang Chen paddled mechanically in the air. He felt that his thinking began to slow down at this moment, as if he had lost his perception. He lost control of his body and could only rely on inertia to slide continuously.

By the sixth temperature difference, the coldness in Zhang Chen's body had become extremely strong, and the breath of the Sun's True Fire was almost unnoticeable. Even the Buzhou Seal floating above his head began to condense streaks of frost.

"I must keep going forward and never give up!" Zhang Chen looked at the snow scene on both sides that was constantly receding, and suddenly a great fear surged in his heart:
"What if, I mean what if, what if the hand that dropped the skill of controlling the icy energy that I want is not it?"

"If it weren't for the skills I wanted, I would most likely have frozen to death there. Is it worth taking such a risk? You know, even without the good fortune brought by that palm, I am still living a good life now. As long as I pick up skills step by step, I can still embark on the road to supremacy in the future. I can even be comparable to the owner of that palm, or even surpass the owner of that palm!" The negative emotions in Zhang Chen's mind were frantically counterattacking at this time.

There is indeed great terror between life and death!
In the new year, Jiu Ming wishes you all:

The shadow of the Big Dipper tells us the seasons, and the cypress leaves and pepper blossoms herald the new year.

I wish you all good health, academic success, wealth, success in the civil service exams, and a happy marriage in the new year.
