The mountain road seems to be connected to the sky. Where you can see it, it is full of denseness. The mist spreads like light smoke from the snow, like an unreal fantasy, with an uneasy atmosphere.
He should not have got lost here, but today's road has indeed been gone for the ninth time.
Kaelan Emberlyn stopped where he was thinking, patiently turned the fire sword in her hand, and looked at the road carefully several times - if you go up the snow road, you will encounter the first trident in 425 steps, and then no matter which road you choose, you will return to the origin after 99 steps.
He came here in his own undead bird in the early morning. In a flash, he didn't know how long it had passed. When he wanted to call the undead bird back and leave, the bird had been hovering low in the air. I don't know what special force was stopped and could not return to him.
If calculated according to the location, I should still be near the mountainside. Although the mountain is majestic and steep, the snow road under my feet is surprisingly flat. On the right side is a smooth hill wall, and on the left side is next to the bottomless cliff. Obviously, I am in such a steep and dangerous place, there is no sound around.
He reached out and touched the ice and snow on the wall. His eyes were puzzled and frowned - not cold, even a little warm and humid, not like a real snowy mountain at all.
Looking up at the blue sky again, the sun had been hanging brightly in the middle. From the moment he entered the mountain, it had not moved, emitting an uncomfortable blurred halo.
A trace of impatience flashed across Kaelan Emberlyn's face. Is she really in the snowy mountains? This snow-caped mountain in the northernmost part of the isolated island is even called a forbidden place. It is cold all year round and has all kinds of strange beasts. It can't be so quiet. Someone must have laid a maze to attract him into the mountain!
Then, his heart sank, and he suddenly turned his eyes to the left cliff, as if he were making a difficult decision.
At present, there is no way. Even if he continues to detour, he will definitely return to the original point for the tenth time. If he wants to make something out of nothing, he can only try the only "dead way" at present. For him, it may also be the only way to live.
Kaelan Emberlyn took a deep breath, strode, stepped on the air, and fell into the cliff! Then the majestic mountains in front of him suddenly changed their posture and began to sink from the top of the mountain. Between heaven and earth, he was shocked to find that he had come to a vast snowfield!
He was puzzled and did not dare to act rashly. It was still windless and silent, and the climate was mild. Except for the white snow in his eyes, he could not see the appearance of the snowfield at all.
Sure enough, it was an illusion... He gritted his teeth and squeezed the nameless letter in his sleeve - the letter paper was heavy, which was obviously the favorite raft of the emperors of the Ash Fortress. In the letter, his two colleagues crossed the endless sea from the ring of the forest to the rootless land and entered the mountain of the devil.
The original name of the rootless land is the island of the sea, which is the name of this sea continent. It is across the sea. In ancient legends, thousands of years ago, the crown of the world tree burned to ashes, and the burning leaves formed a vast isolated island formed after the sky fell into the sea. Since leaving the sky, it has been called the "rootless land".
Perhaps it inherits the special life on the trees of the world. This land has given birth to countless magical creatures, which are called "aliens" thousands of years later.
In the classics he studied in his childhood, he once recorded such a longing sentence: "There are thousands of islands on the top of the clouds in the sky, just like the fruit on the tree of the world, which is the realm of God, known as 'heaven'."
And his current location is the Devil's Mountain, one of the seven forbidden places, the northernmost part of the rootless island.
Kaelan Emberlyn put away his thoughts and continued to look for a way out. It was not like a real snowfield at all. The ground reflected the sunlight and presented a colorful illusion. He tentatively stretched out his hand to touch the surroundings. Although he couldn't see it, his fingertips could vaguely feel something and touch it carefully. It seems to be an old tree.
Kaelan Emberlyn was patiently groping all the way, and he was also quickly sketching a topographic map of this area in his mind. The outermost part of the Devil's Mountain should be a huge sea of grass. After a little deeper, you will enter the dense ancient forest, and the Snow Mountain is actually in the most central position, because it is a foreigner. The gathering place is usually not easily entered by human beings.
If you infer from the touch of your fingers, you should be in the ancient forest. He obviously landed near the snowy mountain. Why did he come to the woods in a blink of an eye?
Keep walking, there are no road signs on the snowfield, the ice is like a mirror, and every step can't leave footprints.
I still don't know where the exit is, but the fire sword at my waist let out a low cry at this time. The inspiration of the sword knew the existence of other sword spirits nearby!
Kaelan Emberlyn's heart moved, and his heart instantly raised his throat and looked along the resonance. The originally silent snowfield suddenly set off a fierce wind. The blizzard swept all over his body in an instant, and the snow particles forcibly blocked the line of sight, making him step back a few steps.
Suddenly, the upset made him hold the fire sword hard, and the sword spirit finally began to outline, forming a sharp sword wind and hitting it fiercely!
The wind and snow in front of him dissipated in an instant, leaving a strange blank. Kaelan Emberlyn rubbed his arm silently, and the faint spasm confirmed that his sword really hit something.
He took a few steps to his right, and the resonance of the spirit of the sword sounded again. Kaelan Emberlyn was awe-inspided. The sound of small footsteps mixed with the sound of leaves blown by the wind. The special breath of the spirit of the sword floated around, followed by a string of messy birds coming out of the nest.
The sword spirit opposite also seemed to be aware of his existence. The silk-like voice was far away in the sky, and it seemed to be within reach. It came from the sky - "Kaelan... is it you?"
This familiar voice shocked him to change his face. He couldn't help holding the spirit of the sword and nervously looking for the source of the sound!
The sky? He looked anxiously. Why did the sound seem to come from the distant sky?
However, the sky is blue, cloudless, and there are not even birds.
"If it's you, don't move first. There is a magic array set up by a master..." The voice was gentle and calm, a little tired, and sounded trapped for a long time: "I don't know where the array is. I can't break the array. I can only try my best to bring you out. You... follow the voice of the sword of charm."
The resonance between the spirits of the sword sounded again, and the fire sword was guided and continued to move forward with Kaelan Emberlyn.
Obviously, the place where he could see was a flat snowfield, but the road taken by the sword spirit was winding, more like a forest path. I don't know how long it took, the previous voice came again: "Can you hear the sound of water? If possible, continue to take three steps forward, and then hold your breath and go into the water.
The sound of the current is extremely weak. If you judge it only by the sound, I'm afraid it's just a small stream.
Kaelan Emberlyn held her breath firmly and followed her words for three steps without hesitation. Sure enough, she fell into the water!
It's strange that the body is sinking, but the bottom of the water is getting brighter and brighter. A beam of white light illuminates the eyes, like the entrance of another world. A familiar face appeared at the bottom of the water and looked anxiously.
"A Xiao..." He was stunned in the water and stared at the people under the water with a lot of thoughts.
This time, he came to the north shore of the metropolis north of the rootless land because of a special task. This is also the only seaport city on the isolated island that is currently open to the outside world. Because the rootless land always does not like to communicate with the outside world, all foreign travelers must register at the naval office along the coast before landing on the island. His colleagues are no exception, but recently he has not received these news, and even the Fire Sword has not felt the existence of other sword spirits!
The scene in front of him changed again. The woman on the other side reached out her hand into the water. A cyan light filled her palm, wrapped around his sleeves and pulled him over little by little. The water suddenly became rapid. He also took advantage of the opportunity to swim to the bottom of the water.
The closer she got to the bottom of the water, the clearer her face became. The moment the air poured into her nose, Kaelan Emberlyn suddenly found herself out of the sea!
On the coast of the Devil's Mountain, the center is a towering snowy mountain, surrounded by vast ancient forests and a sea of grass. When I came here, I was clearly in a snowy mountain, but I came to the coast without knowing it!
Looking again, the woman in blue by the sea was tired and had abrasions on her body. The moment she saw him, she was obviously relieved and sat on the ground and gasped softly.
After meeting again after a long time, he didn't know what to say, but the other party quickly put his index finger on his lips, signaling him not to make a sound.
Her enchanting spirit was a long sword with blue light. At this time, it was hanging upright in the air, with the tip of the sword as the center of the sword, and the blue-clothed woman's palms came out of the blue spiritual light, like a spirit snake flying in the sea.
Kaelan Emberlyn calmly observed that the sea level was abnormally calm and there was no wave, but in a deeper place, strange spiritual fluctuations could be faintly detected.
Suddenly, her expression changed greatly, and she suddenly leaned forward. She hurriedly clenched her fist to catch the spiritual light, as if she was tearing hard with something! Several water columns burst out from the depths of the invisible bottom of the sea, attacking the woman in blue, and the sword array was disturbed and began to shake violently!
The fire sword also took action, and the white sword spirit directly cut off the water column.
"No, I'm going to run away..." She gritted her teeth anxiously and wanted to struggle again. The broken column of water suddenly turned into a spur. Yun Xiao was shocked and forced to let go. Looking at the square sea, the inspiration of the sword array had been shattered and scattered, and the bottom of the sea made a dull sound, which was getting farther and farther away and finally disappeared.
"I lost it." She sighed and waved her hand helplessly, "The dark door that can escape is in the water. It should be a mirror magic array. The eye may be on the sea or in the snowy mountains. The other party's cultivation is far above me, and I can't find him."
"Why did you come?" Kaelan Emberlyn didn't care what she said. She caught a glimpse of the abrasions on her body and frowned, "You're hurt. What happened?"
"It doesn't matter if you have a few branches." Yun Xiao's face was unconcealable happiness. In a blink of an eye, she swept away her previous fatigue and jumped up and looked at him.
After eight years, this face did not change much, but he was not dressed in snow and white clothes of the disciples of Mori's Ring, but was replaced by a shiny black military uniform and a badge symbolizing identity on his shoulders. Perhaps the only thing that remained unchanged was the fire sword "Fire" still clenched in his hand.
Kaelan Emberlyn blushed slightly by her. She quickly turned her back and pretended to cough a few times: "Brench? It's a rattan demon. It's a demon living in the ancient woods, but there is no poison. Just go back to me and get some medicine.
Yun Xiao pulled him carelessly and looked worried: "We just came to the rootless land last night. We wanted to rest in the North Shore City for a while, but before we entered the city, we were attacked by a group of double-headed bird monsters, and then we were thrown here. Aaron separated from me. It took a whole day, and the charming sword could not feel his breath."
"Aaron..." Hearing the name, Kaelan Emberlyn's face was obviously a little stiff, and he suddenly sneered in his heart - his guess was right. In Aaron's special identity, he must have come for the event at the end of the sky!
The end of the sky is located under the blue sea in the northernmost part of the rootless land. It is a deep-sea prison built on the bottom of the sea. A month ago, the fugitive of the Ash Fortress destroyed the coastal defense line and rescued the elemental leader imprisoned here. His whereabouts are still unknown. It is why he was ordered to arrest the fugitive in danger.
Rootless Land was originally an isolated island with many alien races, and Aaron's elemental clan was even one of the former "six spirits, six saints and twelve gods", but the people of this clan were destroyed by the current king Tianquan Emperor 18 years ago. His brother Aaron happened to be one of the few survivors. He was rescued by chance by the leader of the ring of Mori, who swam here by chance, and he has never set foot on his hometown since then.On this special mission, the senior officials of the Ashes Fortress gave him a month to hunt down two fugitives, but less than three days after the time limit, he not only found nothing, but was even trapped in the mountains by people of unknown origin!
Although he is a native of the land without roots, he also practiced in Mori no Ring when he was young and even became a companion with Aaron. After returning to the rootless land eight years ago, he never mentioned the forest ring to anyone to avoid suspicion.
He secretly pinched the unnamed letter in his sleeve again, suddenly bit his lips, and had a bad feeling - I don't know when the letter was quietly placed on his desk, and by the time he found it, the messenger had already disappeared. In this special period of anxiety, he would have ignored this kind of letter paper of unknown origin, but the edge of the letter
It was this sign that attracted him. Anyone who lives on this continent knows this scandalous special organization, which is the only organization that has been wanted for years for nothing.
This is true! This wanted criminal organization, who committed evil in a land without roots, sent him letters, and they got the news faster than the navy guarding this place!
