Chapter 546 The Secret of the Ancient Battlefield
In the world of Danara, there are countless ancient battlefields, such as the Bloody Corridor, the Nine-Colored Tiankeng, etc., but none of them are as ancient as the battlefields around the Gulongman Ancient Road.
As time goes by, many of these ancient battlefields have evolved into forbidden places, no longer suitable for normal life to survive.
"Wizard Hatti, do you know why the rules of these ancient battlefields have become distorted and no longer resemble the normal world?"
"No."
"You really know?"
"Above the long river of stars is the world of chaos. It is the place of end and origin. The so-called distorted rules you mentioned are actually normal phenomena in the world of chaos."
Ivan and the other two lacked understanding of the ancient battlefield. As a great sage, Hatti Xia Luoxi's knowledge was beyond theirs.
It turns out that the ancient battlefield of Danara was transformed into a series of unique areas under the influence of the power of the chaotic world, which seemed incompatible with the normal world.
Although it is a forbidden land where living creatures can hardly survive, it can nurture all kinds of rare treasures, which is obviously not a bad thing.
"Come on, we should go down."
The Cloud Shuttle left the China Continent and went deep into the Sea of Storms for a distance before arriving near the target location that Fiorchi and Locke had explored.
From the deck of the airship, one can see that the ancient road is like a winding white vine, spanning across the dark wilderness.
This is the 'Gulongman Ancient Road'.
Led by Hatti, a group of four jumped directly from the airship and landed on the ancient road soon.
In fact, the Gulongman Ancient Trail is not narrow. In the narrowest place, seven or eight large freight animal carts can pass side by side. The surface of the ancient trail is very special. It is paved with white gravel and no flowers or plants grow on it.
There is black permafrost on both sides of the ancient road, on which you can occasionally see strange vegetation with tenacious vitality.
"This way."
Fiorchi pointed to one side and stepped out of the ancient road first, stepping on the frozen soil, which made a crackling sound.
The three followed closely behind, and they remained silent all the way.
In places like this, people with weak strength are less likely to encounter trouble, because no one will care about or pay attention to ordinary small characters. This is also the main reason why the Gulongman Ancient Road can be used as a thoroughfare.
This is not the case for Ivan and his three companions. The probability of them being targeted is very high, but the four of them are not afraid at all.
"rumble!"
As expected, a strange vision soon appeared around the four people. Several icebergs six or seven meters high suddenly appeared around them, and high-concentration flames could be seen being suppressed inside the ice peaks.
At this moment, the flames broke through the blockade of the top of the iceberg and erupted like a volcano.
"We seem to be surrounded. Could this be some kind of formation?"
"Ivan, what do you think?"
The four of them couldn't help but stop and watch what happened. Philomena spoke first and asked a noteworthy question, but Hathi asked Ivan.
Ivan is both an enchanter and an arcane wizard who controls the power of fire. He should be the most suitable person to answer this question.
"Yes, but it's not worth mentioning."
He didn't hesitate to express his opinion directly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed some unusual movement not far away, and when he looked over there, he saw a figure with half silver and half red hair, staring at him with a sinister look.
"Haha, it seems you have angered someone."
Philomena said with some gloating.
"So what?" Ivan didn't care.
"Oh, someone is underestimated by you, then it depends on your methods." Philomena continued to squeeze.
The consciousness that appeared here was actually an obsession body with an extremely paranoid temperament. It would usually not give up until it achieved its goal. The reason why the two of them sang the same tune was to provoke each other and make the other party expose their weaknesses so that they could quickly resolve the battle.
The sinister man was indeed enraged. He raised his rage, and a bone-chilling flame surged out from the iceberg, sweeping towards the few people.
Ivan stood up and calmly used the Black Demon's Hand. With the blessing of soul energy, the power of the Black Demon's Hand was many times greater than before.
With one palm, the flame array collapsed from the weak point, cold flames splashed everywhere, and even the iceberg that spewed out flames was shattered in half.
"I actually lost!"
"I actually lost!"
“——”
The sinister man's eyes were full of disbelief, he couldn't believe that he had lost so poorly.
As he muttered to himself, everything around him quickly dissipated. The flames disappeared, the iceberg disappeared, and the sinister man also disappeared without a trace.
Ivan was not too surprised by this. He stretched out his hand casually, and a trace of fire power gathered in his palm, quickly turning into a silver cold flame.
"The fire born from the ice, not bad, not bad."
"keep going."
For the four of them, this was just a minor incident and nothing surprising.
Soon after, they experienced various small episodes, dealing with them one by one calmly, and they didn't know how far into the ancient battlefield they had gone.
In fact, there were five people in their group. Locke was the one who was there. He attached himself to Ivan and did not dare to show up easily.
However, when the four's search got into trouble, he was forced to show up.
"Locke, please."
"It's easy to talk about."
The one who spoke was Fiorchi. She and Locke had previously locked their location from the Storm Sea above. Due to the particularity of this ancient battlefield, there would inevitably be significant deviations.
This is when Locke needs to take action.
Locke has a special item - the Grinder Bracelet, which is a symbol of his becoming the Great Grinder. It is also a rare item specially created for spirits.
After the bracelet was turned into a chain by grinding, the chain jingled and kept moving in a certain direction as if it had been injected with chicken blood.
"Boss?"
“Follow it.”
Ivan and his companions naturally knew what this meant. The chain had clearly smelled the scent of prey, and judging from its excitement, it was clearly not an ordinary prey.
And everyone’s target happens not to be an ordinary spirit.
This is not a coincidence.
Guided by the chains, they finally arrived at a valley surrounded by mountains. The scenery in the valley gave them the illusion that they had arrived at a wizard town.
In the valley, there are rows of pavilions and terraces, and there is also a three-story tower standing alone.
The streets between the buildings are crowded with people, yet all is well organized.
Isn't such a scene shocking? You have to know that this is deep in the ancient battlefield, and there definitely won't be a very peaceful wizard town.
"There's no point in watching any longer, how about we just meet the 'wizard' here?" A trace of solemnity flashed in Hati's eyes.
"It should be so." The other three people naturally would not refuse.
No matter what's weird here, they are here to solve the problem, not to hunt for curiosities. There is no need to explore around bit by bit, just go straight to the goal.
They wanted to see what kind of wizard was hiding here. It couldn't be the King of Blue Thunder himself.
After reaching a consensus, the group quickly approached the tower located on the hillside of a certain mountain. In the blink of an eye, they passed this strange town and landed in front of the tower. (End of this chapter)
