Mystical Journey

“Go separate ways!”

At the bottom of the trial door, three shadows went through the door and suddenly spread out, each darting in one direction.

“Remember to gather at Fifteenth Palace!”

A voice transmission was instantly transmitted from Hong Guo into the other two’s ears.

The trio seemed to be very familiar with the terrain of Scarlet Snow Sect headquarters. After a few leaps, they had disappeared into the alleys.

Most of the residents living in Scarlet Snow headquarters had not used force for many years. In the face of such situation, only a handful of security forces were still searching around. More were those who hid in their homes to wait for things to pass.

And so, the three people barely got any hindrance in the vast residence land and reached the entry point of Fifteenth Palace right away. The only price was to defeat a few waves of security guards whom they came across by chance. The strongest guard was only the combat strength of a Level Three Energy Machinist who was easily resolved by them.

The trio landed at the border of Fifteenth Palace and pushed open the wooden red door. Inside was the ranked fifteenth Three-Hearted Royal Highness’ residence that guarded the headquarters.

The snow was getting heavier. The moonlight was obscured by the thick clouds and not a bit of it was leaked through.

“No one here? What’s going on?” Hong Guo gripped his epee tightly. The moment he walked in, he did not even see a glimpse of a figure inside.

“Come on, let’s go. Maybe we’re lucky and the owner had so happened to go out.” The gentle young boy was a little scared and suggested.

The two did not disagree. They quickly found a teleportation leaping point and stood in it. The leaping point which should have been locked was actually unlocked and lit up at this time.

Hiss!

The trio disappeared instantly from the leaping platform.

None of them noticed that in the darkness, a figure slowly walked out and quietly watched them leaped away. It did not make any sound.

***************

There were no snags. They passed through Fifteenth Manor, and after a fierce battle with White Night at Fourteenth Manor, the Level Four strength was defeated.

Thirteenth Manor was empty at this time.

Inside Heavy Water Prison.

“Senior Sister! I’m here to get you out!” The prison window was opened and a stream of white radiance shot in, hitting precisely and breaking the chains and cuffs on her.

Aloran jumped in and entered the heavy water with a splash.

Rainy looked terribly wan at this time. Her initial thin appearance was now even more emaciated as if a breeze could blow her off her feet.

“Aloran…don’t waste your energy…I’ve made a big mistake and I deserve to be punished…”

She spoke slowly.

“Don’t speak anymore! I’ll bring you out!” Aloran would not allow her to talk. Her hands drew out strokes of lines like silk. A large number of white lines intertwined, growing bigger and greater in number and quickly becoming a big white bird the height of a person.

Gently placing Rainy on the white bird’s back, a white imprint suddenly lit up between Aloran’s eyebrows.

“Neutral Traction! Go!” She hurriedly operated her Willpower and pointed on the white bird’s head.

Gee…

The white bird gave out a long cry, flapped its wings and rushed to the window overhead. They dashed out of the prison instantly.

Pap, pap, pap, pap…

Suddenly there was a clear applause outside of the prison.

A bloody figure walked out of the prison’s shadow, exposing the face of a malicious man with an aquiline nose.

“It’s a good plan…using a few cannon fodder to attract everyone’s attention while you yourself guard and steal and release the criminal…”

“Angola…” Aloran was stunned. Her figure which was about to leave stopped instantly. Her eyes were fixed on the other party.

“Releasing the criminal without permission and collaborating with outsiders to attack the headquarters. Tenth Aloran, what crime should you be guilty of?” Angola showed a savage smile.

“It’s better if I help you to catch the criminal back to reduce your sins.”

Before his voice had faltered, Angola suddenly turned into a shadow of blood and rushed straight up to the exit.

“Don’t even think about it!” Aloran rose into the sky and burst out strands of white lines, rushing toward Angola in all directions. “Sixth Angola, come slug it out!!”

A big white bird slowly appeared beside her. It raised its head and gave out a sharp and long cry.

Gee…!

*************

The big white bird carried Rainy and flew toward the darkness far away. There seemed to be a layer of dark yarn around it, covering and concealing its entire white body, making it completely hidden in the darkness.

The big bird crossed the large buildings and passed through First Manor, Second Manor, Third Manor…

Whish!!

A red beam of light shot up into the sky from below. It was aimed at the bird’s head, ready to burst it into pieces.

Before the attack had arrived, the powerful force field attack had caused the big bird to fall into a state of collapse where it could disperse at any time.

“Blizzard Fist!!”

A raging atmosphere charged upward and took on the form a white light beam as it fiercely broke apart the red light, resolving the crisis. Red and white light fragments scattered all over and descended like shining fluorescent snowflakes. It was exceptionally beautiful.

On the snowfield below, a tall and robust figure appeared in a flash, as if jumping out of nowhere.

“Demonic Spirit, you have come too…” The robust figure spoke in a deep male voice and looked into the darkness not far away.

“Didn’t you also come?” A figure wrapped in a white strip of cloth resembling a mummy walked out of the darkness. Her exposed skin was all without the slightest skin surface and the red muscle beneath it was completely visible. It was horrifying.

“Attacking the headquarters at night and setting the criminal free, this is a big crime.” The robust man spoke in a low voice and stretched out his index finger. A laser-like red beam of light lengthened and shortened continually at his fingertip, making an ear-piercing sound.

“You know what? King Cat, I really wanted to fight with you ten years ago. I didn’t expect to wait until now to have the chance.” Demonic Spirit smiled sinisterly. “I have always wanted to know what qualification you have to be ranked fourth…”

“Qualification? It seems that you’re wishing for death…” A massive force field swelled out of King Cat and turned into a big white cat with the tail of a red viper, crouching beside him.

******************

Rushing footsteps ran across the snowfield.

The boots stepping on the snow was making a rhythmical sound.

A dark shadow beneath was chasing the white bird above. That mysterious youth who had just joined the sect, Fifteenth Three-Hearted Royal Highness, had a trace of greed at the corner of his mouth as he looked up at Rainy in the sky.

“The extremely weak Inherited Level peak…if I can…” The greed in his eyes was almost becoming substantial.

However, a giant body figure made him instantly dispel this idea.

It was a large fish in the air. Its whole body was white and full of spikes. It was chubby like a ball and the entire ball-fish was four or five meters in diameter. Its two wide-eyed big eyes were blinking non-stop as it hovered mid-air and glared at the oncoming white big bird.

“You’ve worked hard, little fellow.” The ball-fish actually opened its mouth to speak, nodding its head toward the mysterious youth below. “Through the test this time, consider yourself part of Star Plate.”

The youth smiled, darted into the darkness and rushed toward his manor.

Rainy crouched on the back of the white bird and smiled bitterly at the ball-fish.

“Eleventh, why are you doing this…this is my own sin. It has to be bear by me alone.”

“What are you saying? You must believe in everyone. I believe that Great Senior Brother wouldn’t really want to keep you!” The ball-fish blew a bubble with its nose and spoke.

“But this way, everyone will get into trouble because of me…” Rainy gave a wry smile.

“It’s okay…just sleep. All will be well after a sleep. You are too weak now and you will hurt your Origin if you hold out anymore.” The ball-fish exuded another bubble through his nose. It quickly became bigger and enveloped Rainy in it right away.

The white bird finally broke up slowly and disappeared in mid-air.

The bubble seemed to have a hypnotic effect. Wrapping Rainy in it, it actually quickly made her closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep gradually.

The ball-fish looked at Rainy, who quickly drifted away, and shook his head slightly.

“Although I am also a member of Moonshine, but compared to our friendship…”

“Eleventh…some things cannot be violated.” Suddenly, a calm voice suddenly sounded just below him.

The eyes of the ball-fish immediately constricted and looked downward. A seemingly ordinary man with an imposing sense of infinity was standing on the snowfield just below him.

“Carthage…”

He spoke with a bit of sorrow.

In the Elders’ Manor faraway

Second Elder slowly closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. He got up and left the front of the monitoring crystal wall.

*****************

The body of the huge ball-fish was frozen in the center of a gigantic ice block and erected in the middle of the snowfield.

The ball-fish had its eyes wide opened while a complex imprint was converged between its two short fins. But he himself and the incomplete white imprint were frozen and sealed in the ice block.

Carthage placed one hand on his sword and looked plainly at Rainy, who was gradually heading away. With a light leap, his figure actually crossed a distance of tens of meters in the blink of an eye and appeared on the snowfield directly underneath Rainy’s bubble.

Leaping again, he appeared in the air within a distance of fewer than ten meters in the blink of an eye and reached out to grab the bubble right away.

Clang!!!!

His hands did not grab the bubble but a silvery white scimitar instead. It was a demonic blade with its hilt blazing a blue flame.

A round of substantial-like terrific shock wave broke out from the contact point of the hand and the blade, instantly destroying all the surveillance facilities around.

“You are?!” Carthage’s eyes which were without any motion all this while for the first time changed slightly.

The response given to him was a low and light shout.

“Sunlight.”

Immediately, endless light shrouded him. It was an endless blue light that radiated like the sun. Endless light and warmth shined fiercely upon Carthage.

He did not dodge and could not dodge!

In the split moment, Carthage only had time to use his right hand to block the front of him.

*****************

“What happened? How come I can’t see anything more?” Inside First Elder’s manor, First Elder and Third Elder sat in huge chairs and watched the monitor wall in front of them, but the sudden scene wrecked all their monitors straight away.

“Someone deliberately damaged the monitors to get out of our surveillance.” Third Elder laughed sharply. “It seems that there are still many things in the headquarters that we don’t know very well…”

“What’s the point of saying all this? Want to go and see for ourselves?” First Elder’s hand was still clutching a large piece of shiny brown barbecued meat, which seemed to be a giant creature’s thigh meat. He bit it, tore the meat and chomped loudly.

“We can’t make our moves, otherwise Second Brother would take action for sure. Our purpose is to stay here to stop Second Brother from breaking the rules.” Third Elder shook his head.

“Does this mean that there isn’t any more show to watch?” First Elder was speechless.

“It doesn’t matter. Aren’t the three little fellas still there?” Third Elder tapped his finger lightly. The over ten meters of tall stone-walls immediately displayed the image of the scene on the other side.

The three male and female youngsters who intruded into the headquarters were now in Eight Manor and battling face-to-face with the eight ranked Mies.
