The Spirit World

Chapter 3: Dark Night and Uninvited Guests

[2015 Years of the Principality of Arlan]

[Wild Icefield]

Yishaar struggled forward in the wind and snow. Although it was midnight in the polar region, the wind and snow continued.

A blizzard was howling in the dark sky. Because of the blood conflict of [Impurity], Ishar, who had the troll pattern, could still feel the cold penetrating his body. Fortunately, the special cloak would not disturb the predatory beasts around, and could ensure Ishar's safe progress.

However, the special cloak is still useless when encountering powerful beasts. The powerful beasts can still quickly identify and attack Ishar.

Therefore, Ishar was very careful along the way, trying her best to avoid interference from ferocious beasts. So far, there were surprisingly few ferocious beasts. At this speed, they would soon reach the magic spring of [Talon], and she was quite fortunate.

The Talon she knew had the most beautiful scenery in the polar regions. Her father had taken her there. There were incredibly beautiful colorful flowers, some warm magic springs, small, short, wonderful buildings, a strange man in gorgeous clothes, and a rabbit orc.

Those were beautiful memories of Ishar's childhood that had always been buried deep in his heart: his father's smile and the honest look he showed when he talked to that man.

And the legend about Talon never stops.

Talon possesses endless treasures and magic scrolls that can make people instantly powerful.

The legend of Talon is spread among any race that desires power, and exploration teams from different races continue to attack this legendary target.

But most of them gained nothing, and all that was left in the polar regions were their corpses.

In the raging snowstorm, Ishar clenched her fists. She looked at the endless white wasteland, and the flame in her heart burned.

"Talon, Talon!"

She was whispering softly.

Twal, who was heading north, drove the Troll Pattern quickly in the snow and ice. He was driving through the blizzard at a very fast speed.

The ferocious beasts along the way were caught off guard and had snow thrown in their faces by him. He was very anxious. Perhaps no one in the world was more eager to see Ishtar than him.

His troll patterns covered his entire body, making him glow with a deep blue light, like a blue light spot moving quickly in the white snow. He was chanting a name that he could never forget.
"Ishaar, Ishaar!"

Tewar is Gulal's second son. When Gulal scolds Ishaar, Tewar always stands by. He wants to hold back this violent father, but he is always powerless.

Later, he looked at Ishhar's eyes with crystal tears in them, and her eyes were firmly looking at the "Ahsal Scepter". She stood quietly on the cliff in the sunset, her long hair fluttering, her eyebrows and eyes like stars. He watched her from afar. This was the most beautiful moment he had ever seen.

At the beginning, Tevar walked with difficulty in the howling blizzard. Even for a short distance, it took Tevar several times longer.

Tevar is one of the smaller ice trolls of the younger generation, and his agile skills are of no use at this time.

The wind and snow seemed to be getting stronger, and the wind and snow stung his cheeks. His blue skin seemed to no longer be able to keep out the cold. In order to keep moving forward, Twal had to unfold his troll patterns. The blue magic patterns flowed on Twal's body, and the ancient characters burst out with mysterious power. He couldn't imagine how Ishar's weak body could withstand the beating of the wind and snow.

The disadvantage of [Impurified Breed] was fully exposed at this time. Ishar's bloodline power could not withstand such strong wind and snow.

"Ishaar..."

Tewal used his arms to shield himself from the wind and snow, and moved forward in leaps and bounds on the snowfield.

This snowstorm was too abnormal and it lasted for several months with no sign of stopping. The ice that was originally exposed on the snow had long disappeared and it was unknown how thick the snow was.

Only the original cave was in the mountains, but now it is like flat ground. The horror of the blizzard is far more than that. The ferocious beasts in the mountains are buried under the snow and become a potential threat. If you are not careful, you will be dragged into the snow and die without a burial place.

Tewal's anxious heart made him unable to care about the beasts lurking under the snow. He could only step on the snow or step on the head of the exposed beast to push it back into the snow! As long as his luck and strength did not match, he would become food for the beast that had been hungry for the whole winter.

The snowfield is now like a sea of ​​ferocious beasts, full of dangers.

"Ishar" Twar raised his arms to block the cold wind that was about to cut his eyes.

Legend has it that there is a towering oriental castle in Talon, in which lives an oriental god with powerful magic power, who is in charge of the magic fountain. During the last migration, Ishar's father obtained the magic fountain to repair the Scepter of Asar.

And this time his daughter also needs the magic spring.

At that time, Ishar and himself were still young. They trained and played together in the reserve team, but now, those days are long gone, leaving only the melancholy Tevar.

Tewal understood the danger of this journey, but Ishar probably needed more protection.

Tewal's blatant running on the snowy field full of ferocious beasts naturally attracted the beasts. He stepped on the heads or limbs of the beasts and rushed out several meters in a single stride.

The blessing of the troll pattern made him not afraid of any ferocious beast known for its strength, and the huge body of the ferocious beast broke through the snow layer, exposing the huge ice cones originally formed on the ice field.

"boom!"

Teval stepped on the ice cone and kicked the beast's body, causing it to scream. Teval didn't care about being happy, and jumped towards Talon without looking back.

Tewal's speed was enough to catch up with Ishaar who was moving forward cautiously in a short time. Just when Tewal stepped on the head of a ferocious beast again, a violent tremor came and almost made Tewal stumble.

[Boom!]

A huge sound came, something terrible was approaching! The violent tremor became more and more intense, and the beast under his feet dug into the snow mud with his claws like a possessed person. It wanted to escape in fear, and the snow mud it dug out splashed everywhere, completely ignoring the invader who had just stepped on his head.

Tewal was a little surprised. He looked back at the road he came from. Tewal was stunned for a moment. He saw a group of ferocious beasts running over the vast snowfield. The snow was trampled everywhere, and the snowflakes were flying wildly. The hunting team's awareness also made him jump out in a hurry and quickly buried himself in the snow. Not moving at all.

As calm as a rock on a snowy field.

Hiding is the best way at this time. As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. It is common sense for polar natives to avoid provoking the ferocious beasts on the ice field if possible. His eyes were fixed on the herd of ferocious beasts trampling towards this side, like a hunter waiting to hunt.

Strange, why isn't it a single ethnic group?

When the herd of ferocious beasts got closer, Tewal saw that this so-called herd of ferocious beasts was not just one species, but almost all species of ferocious beasts on the ice field!

The tremor was still intensifying. Teval wanted to do something, but he was powerless. The beast this time might be more powerful than before. It was accelerating towards here at a speed that could be heard by the naked ear. The troll pattern protected Teval's body buried in the snow. The snow buried Teval's breath. He stared at the direction of the sound.

[Boom!]

There was another loud noise, and a huge ferocious beast was shaken out from the snow!
The snow exploded in front of Tewal's eyes, and the ferocious beast twisted its huge body and began to run, making anxious "kangkang" sounds of fear.

Behind it was a group of ferocious beasts as huge as it. The whole group of ferocious beasts were waving their powerful limbs and running at an exaggerated speed, while a giant jawed seal was chasing them from behind. They were terrified and made strange cries of [ang][hang].

It turned out to be a giant jawed eagle that was hunting. This jawed eagle, which was several times larger than the others, was chasing these seemingly small beasts. Tewal cursed inwardly, even though he had experienced being hunted by huge beasts many times.

But seeing such a huge Ezhang still made people gasp.

No matter how well you hide, you can't avoid being a little scared.

The elongated dragon waved its giant tentacles and hit the snow at an extremely fast speed. The snow was shattered by the huge shock and fell down. The ferocious beasts buried under the snow were shaken out one after another, lying on their backs and crying out in pain.

Tewal was no exception. In a flash, the Tewal troll's patterns were fully activated and it moved forward quickly on the exposed ice cones. With one step, one push, and one swing, Tewal, who was running almost side by side with the other ferocious beasts, still could not escape the attack range of the giant jaw.

The tentacles of Ezhang flying from the flank forced Tewal to force himself into the snow to avoid them. In an instant, Tewal was shocked by Ezhang again and had nowhere to hide.

Not good! This is a tough opponent!

Teval cursed inwardly when facing the sudden tentacles, stopped abruptly from the wing, held the huge tentacle with his backhand, and then pushed it away. This time, the push under the huge pressure made Teval's arm bleed profusely, and the barbs on the tentacles scratched his arm heavily. The blue blood slowly flowed out and produced a huge reaction with the cold air, and the sound of hot air was sizzling beside Teval.

【call--】

Another tentacle flew over, and the bright hook hit Twar's head directly. Twar shouted, "Yiya!" Twar's arms rushed in front of him and took the blow, but he was thrown dozens of meters away.

The crackling sound where Tewal fell became louder and louder.

But the giant jawan ignored him, as if it was unaware of his existence, and continued to pound the ground with its fangs and claws. By the time Tewal came to his senses, the giant jawan had already driven away with a large group of ferocious beasts. Tewal sat up and was thankful that he had escaped the disaster. When he stood up and wanted to continue to Talon, he found that the giant jawan was on its way to Talon.

Tevar's blue blood slowly flowed out from his arm. In order to control the cold air and freeze the blood, Tevar needed to quickly gather the troll's magical power in his body.

Just as Teval was about to open the Troll Pattern, he saw something strange, like a human figure...

Tewal stared at the front in surprise. A figure in a black robe was moving quickly on the fallen snow layer left by the giant Ezhang. His speed was so fast that he was always very close to Ezhang, as if he was driving Ezhang forward!

There was an obvious purple murderous aura on him, and that murderous aura was like a blazing flame rising into the sky, making Tewal swallow his saliva in fear.

Tewal was shocked by such a strong murderous aura. He had never seen any race that could display murderous aura to such an extent.

Looking at his back, is he a human?
This is incredible!
Are the powerful humans going to look for Talon again?
Just as Tewal was staring at the man in black robe, the man in black robe seemed to know something and turned back suddenly. Tewal quickly crouched down, buried himself in the snow, held his breath and dared not make a sound. The man in black robe tilted his head as if he was very confused, and ran after E Zhang.

E Zhang struck the ground with his claws and fangs, causing more ferocious beasts buried in the snow to be shaken out without warning. They tumbled in the air with all four or multiple limbs facing the sky, revealing terrified expressions.

It drove the beasts, and the black-robed man drove it, running northward aggressively. Teval was frightened and broke into a cold sweat. He quickly hid in the snow and crawled out after a long time. He took a long breath and then quickly stimulated his troll pattern to repair his body. The blue blood ice that had been frozen on his arm began to melt and flowed down his arm, making a slight sizzling sound on the snow.

If the man in black robes goes to Talon together, then the danger to Ishar will not be as simple as a few ferocious beasts.

Teval stood up and felt less cold. The snowstorm began to slow down and even seemed to be stopping. However, the snowstorm in Talon's direction was still raging. Teval became even more uneasy. He activated the ancient lines and jumped quickly on the fallen snow layer left by the giant Ezhang.

At this moment, Talon was shrouded in a layer of dark twilight. In the distant sky came the rumbling sound of violent friction of the air. The transparent barrier showed progressive layers of magic ripples where there was violent friction, one ring after another.

The enchantment was not large, surrounding an ancient Chinese city with majestic walls, golden glazed tiles and red pillars. The walls were made of gray stone bricks and were next to a short, rugged, green hill. There was also a waterfall flowing out of the hill. Birds and butterflies were flying around in the city and on the hill, and a spring was flowing quietly from the horizon.
It passes through the ancient city and surrounds it like a giant oriental dragon guarding it.

The streets in the city were empty, but everything in the city was so different from the scene outside the barrier, as if a paradise had appeared out of nowhere.

The violent air outside the barrier caused the wind and snow to stop suddenly, leaving only a loud rumbling sound.

Under the gloomy sky, everything in the ancient city seemed to lose its color and was left alone. A crisis that was foreseen was about to come.

"Dada, since I can't come back this time, you should take Feng'er away from here and seek refuge in Bailing Mountain."

The voice was soft and gentle, which was unlike him.

His white cloud-sleeved long suit fit his body neatly, and he held the green crystal jade pendant tightly in his hand. He stood at the window with a slightly frown on his face, and his star-like black eyes looked indifferently at the magic spring water floating beside him.

"That's it. The only thing I'm worried about is Feng'er." His name is Ning Ji, he is the master of this city, the protector of this city, and this city is called [Huazhou] and also called [Talon]. Feng'er is a baby who has been sleeping for several years.

"Sir!" A thin young man with rabbit ears stood quietly behind him and took a step forward while speaking.
"Dada, you know how important Feng'er is to human beings. No need to say more. Go make me a cup of tea. I haven't had Oriental tea for a long time." He waved his hand so lightly.

"Yes"

The rabbit man named Dada retreated unwillingly, tears flashing in his eyes, but he tried hard not to let them fall.

Ning Ji looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, as if talking to himself: "If this is my destiny, I will do my best!"

His voice was still very soft, but so firm. He looked at the sword in the cloud sheath in his hand, his eyes blurred, the sword hummed, the air began to quiet, and the snow in Talon stopped.

At this time, a thin figure stood outside the barrier. The loud rumbling sound did not scare her at all. She supported her injured arm and walked through the rippling barrier, just like a guest from afar, walking straight towards the vermilion city gate.

The bright red blood dripped onto the long-lost yellow earth and seeped in. She was greeted by Dada, and the two disappeared into the city while talking.

Talon, having finally escaped the torment of the polar day, began its long-awaited night. The stars were cleverly arranged, and the aurora began to slowly spread around Talon and flow slowly, leaving the world with endless beautiful reverie.

The night in Talon, accompanied by the colorful auroras, embellishes the surrounding white ice and snow into a colorful paradise that flows with time.

Under the gorgeous aurora, a giant shadow stood quietly in front of Talon's barrier. On the shadow, a man in black robes showed a wicked smile: "Ah, my dear Talon, I'm back again!"

You didn’t expect it! I, Hu Hansan, am back again!
