The mysteries of nature are endless. When the miracle of the Creator God is combined with the power of nature, any incredible desperate situation, beautiful scenery, and wonders are possible.
The official full name of the Snowy Mountains in the North is the Frost White Mountains in the Far North, nicknamed "Eternally Frozen Ice Prison". It borders three of the seven countries in the North. Just looking at the area, it is not inferior to a small kingdom.
, but its residents are somewhat special and its population cannot be large.
As the altitude increases, it soon becomes impossible to see areas that are not covered by ice and snow.
The boundless snow-capped mountains and hills, all kinds of strange snow-carved rocks, upside-down snow pillars, silver trees, towering frost towers, the small world under the elemental ice lake, the upside-down ice flow waterfalls, and the strange monsters in the mountains include ice phoenixes.
Rare treasures like the Silver Unicorn are known as the most beautiful forbidden area of life in the world due to its unparalleled beauty of snow-capped mountains.
Yes, this is also a restricted area for life. It is also one of the coldest places in the world. The average temperature is around minus 50 degrees. Every year except for a few special days, the mountains are covered with heavy snow. It is absolutely impossible for any ordinary creature.
An impossible situation.
Some people even regard it as a separate plane of ice and snow, and from the research of mages, this area does have obvious alien characteristics, the spreading ice element crystals (other elemental planes also have crystals of their own elements)
) is proof that if the God of Ice and Snow Elements is ever born, this place must be his most important candidate cradle.
But if there is no ordinary life there, it would be wrong to think that there is silence here. When ordinary life cannot enjoy the polar ice, this is a paradise for elemental life, soul creatures, and top-level monsters.
After walking along the mountains for a long time, I realized that I was walking on someone else's super giant ice dragon. An elemental boar that could shake the mountains just by walking. A super ice phoenix that could bring up a blizzard just by falling ice feathers in flight. This
This uninhabited land is also their home.
Many of them are even Ayer's contemporaries, and their strength and background are unfathomable. However, they have always lived here. Even if the era changes and the world is almost destroyed, they have no intention of leaving.
"Have you heard? Two days ago, the ice pig king in the north of the mountain gave birth to a group of cubs. Among them was a super-mutated winged species, which will sooner or later enter the epic level of pig king."
"Ah, Dabai is so lucky. Then I have to prepare a gift. How about going to the Lake of Ice Elements and asking the old Dragon King for an ice crystal blessing?"
The relatively closed environment makes time flow very busy here. This land of ice and snow is far more peaceful than the outside world. These people who have known each other for hundreds of years have direct communication, and they do not have direct communication with the aunt next door who is short-lived.
essential difference.
It's just that maybe the ice and snow monsters prefer quietness, that's their nature. It's always so quiet and peaceful here, but recently, it's been a little different. They have the latest hot topic.
"Have you heard? There is a super singer from Bingwen. He was the emcee and singer at the Pig King boy's birthday party. He sang really well."
"Is it the song 'Happy birthday to you pig, Happy birthday to you pig, pig head, pig brain, pig body, pig tail (yi), a good baby who is never picky about food, sleeps until three hours in the sun every day, never brushes teeth and never fights'
?Oh, I heard Ade (Snowman) and Xiaomi (Ice Unicorn) from next door singing it, it turns out they are from there. It’s really good, it sounds good and fits the occasion!”
"Yes, now everyone calls her 'our Snow Songstress', and those boys surround her every day? Do they listen to her sing new songs every day?"
"Is it her? How did I hear it was a boy?"
"...I have seen it once. Although I am not very clear about the gender of the little meat man, how can it be that he is so cute? Or is he gender-neutral like us?"
"Who knows, but I heard that the ice monsters are having a lot of fun recently. Also, only their soul contracts can allow outsiders to enter here. This seems to be the first time in more than three hundred years?"
"Yes, I watch them singing and dancing in the square at the mouth of the gorge every day, that 'little little apple?'"
"...I went there once, and the group of ice monsters were dancing and transforming. After dancing, it was really a group of monsters dancing wildly."
At this time, in the gorge, the sky was still dark, and the sound of singing and dancing in the square that gave me a headache appeared again.
"The rolling green hills are my love. You betrayed my love and forced me to leave. You are always too soft-hearted. You are my little apple, little apple! Little apple! Ha!"
"Little Apple, your sister is still playing this joke, is that enough?"
It's a pity that this ice cave doesn't even have a window, not to mention a door. I still have to bite the bullet and enjoy the unbearable magic sound filling my brain.
Even though it received unanimous praise from the fans, I still deeply regret my performance at that time, especially when many things were revealed.
"One song and one ice monster? Oh oh oh, that's just a joke. No matter how unreliable it is, we will never trade with our tribe."
At that time, my mood... If I couldn't defeat it, I would put the lion-shaped ice monster in front of me into the goblin cannon and shoot it out. Maybe I would try burning the lion's head. I don't care if he is an ancient being, I don't care.
Regardless of whether you are a companion of my ancestors, Lion Head should eat sweets... There seems to be something subtly wrong.
I obviously have a lot of things on my hands to come here to fulfill the contract, is it easy for me? But I still got fooled by this group of idiots, I really can't help but laugh.
"How can you use a virtual mask here? You should face everyone with your true face."
Well, what this lion head said is indeed reasonable. If it offends a powerful being because of this, it would be too uneconomical. Of course, this looks like a child who has not yet developed, and has a neutral voice that has not yet reached the stage of voice change.
It also caused a little trouble.
Snow Songstress? What is that? I don’t know...Okay, I admit, it’s all the fault of the talkative Irenebella, but let’s let black history be hidden in history.
, as long as we leave this mountain, whoever dares to mention that name, I will fight to the death!
However, in a sense, it is inevitable that things will end up like this.
Ice monsters are a special kind of soul creature. They themselves are the incarnation of ice and snow. They are similar to the Molten Flame clan who eat molten fire and grow. They can also eat ice energy and gems to grow, but they do not have the common features of physical creatures.
Appetite and carnal desires, they also cannot understand a series of behaviors driven by lust.
But even with such an illusory and serious existence, he still has his own hobbies.
Since it has nothing to do with physical enjoyment, it is natural that spiritual enjoyment is more appealing to these soul creatures.
Music, painting, poetry and other arts related to humanities cannot be created by themselves, but they instinctively yearn for the flash of intelligent races from outside. For them, this is the nutrition and luxury they need for growth.
The ice monsters did not hide their preferences. From what they said, the ancestors of the Lan Kingdom who took away the cubs from them in previous years also spent a lot of time preparing gifts and performances for their next visit. This was originally
People who do not have the tradition of Winter Veil are gradually getting used to the reasons for Winter Veil celebrations.
On that day, the contractor from afar comes to visit, and he will perform his carefully prepared show, and the gifts may not be so precious, but they are indeed full of works of painstaking efforts of craftsmen and painters, and those who are mature in the outside world and are looking forward to their return will be filled with excitement.
He told about his past experiences. Finally, when the celebration came to an end, the mature ice monsters watched him leave with his newborn cubs and eggs, just like the young parents who watched their children go to elementary school for the first time.
For thousands of years, the Winter Veil Festival has been the most anticipated day for the entire ethnic group.
In a sense, the Arashi royal family has broken its promise for nearly four hundred years, and it is for this reason that I have the patience to sing with them.
To be honest, my singing is very average. Although my voice is not bad, there are many people who forget the words halfway through singing, and there are many people who sing out of tune. As a result of the poor music rhythm, I even miss the words.
The phenomenon of words and multiple words occurs from time to time.
Whenever those snow maidens who are good at singing and dancing sing out-of-tune songs better than the original ones, but are still not in tune, my old face will blush a little.
But the reason why the ice monsters like it is because the musical melodies contained in these "divine comedies", as well as the special culture and thoughts, are definitely not products of this world. The fresh and profound otherworldly art is, on the contrary, extraordinarily special.
attracted them.
But every time, I count the days on my fingers. After all, I really don’t have much time, and it’s not an option to waste it like this.
"...Aroin, you are the companion of the King of Lan and my elder, so you should have been outside. The situation in the Lan Kingdom is very bad now. I am really anxious to go back."
But whenever I said this sentence before, the ice crystal lion head would laugh endlessly, and then find some messy things for me to do. For example, the ice wild boar near the mountain gave birth to a baby, and asked me to help sing and celebrate.
, the ancestor of the Ice Phoenix family over there is celebrating his 40,000th birthday, and he needs my help to celebrate his birthday.
"We absolutely can't wait any longer! If it still doesn't work, I have no choice but to go back first and come back next year."
Finally, this time I blocked A Luo Yin's door. Seeing that he was so anxious and ready to leave at any time, he finally stopped trying to stall me.
"I know that we also have news from the outside world. I also know that you are here to find strength this time. As an elder, I will not stop you. But look at what you look like now? Can you really gain strength?"
"Me? I'm fine."
The inexplicable irritability made me answer directly without thinking, but the old lion showed an unusually humane and playful smile.
"Is it good? You are also a user of the power of ice. We, Bingxing, are also aggregation of the power of ice, but you have seen that Bingxing act in a hurry."
"That's because your place is too peaceful! You have free time." The retort was already on my lips. I was about to say it, but then I remembered something and was suddenly stunned.
Every element has its own nature and characteristics. Fallen magic and holy light will affect the user's character and mind. Elemental magic is no exception, but it can be controlled if the practice is slow.
Being counter-eroded by the elemental power that he is proficient in, most of the Fire Laws are short-tempered, most of the Earth Laws are thick and steady, the Water Laws are easy-going and calm, the Wind Laws are changeable and good-spoken, and the Ice Laws with Water Law as the advanced level are famous for being "cold-blooded"
"Creatures, most of them are extremely calm.
"The so-called element affinity is just the degree to which the element resonates with you. To put it bluntly, it is the degree to which the element likes you. Magic is the miraculous power produced by strong will, and the will originates from the soul, and all miraculous power belongs to the soul.
Source. The so-called incantations, spell-casting gestures, and materials are only auxiliary. In the end, they still return to the soul."
"Maybe many years ago, you were blinded by hatred and unable to see clearly. So after all these years, when you have understood your own path, why don't you still open your heart to the elements? You close your eyes and ears and erect spiritual barriers.
, how can we gain the love and closeness of the ice and snow element."
"Since you are here to pursue power, those ice and snow elements are the most trustworthy abilities. Obviously those elemental elves love your singing so much, why refuse them to enter your soul? My child, you are too impatient. Since the opportunity is rare,
Just look here more, maybe the whole world will be different."
Hearing this, I broke into a cold sweat.
"Does the power of all miracles come from the soul? Damn it, I actually forgot this fundamental. It turns out that I have been making mistakes."
What shocked me was that in the pursuit of power, I unknowingly forgot the most important foundation. The power of my law is my yearning for fairness, and the holy light of the God of Holy Light is
He is obsessed with rules, and clever practitioners often use their souls to match the nature of power. If they only use power to control power, they will have fallen into the inferior realm and will not be able to reach the true peak.
Outside the window is the boundless snow scene, the white color spreading to the horizon, and the home of the ice and snow elves singing happily. Although I am clearly in this country of ice and snow, my heart is still in the bustling world.
"Do you think the soul contract with Bing Og is all that Aurora Knight has? No, the use is so crude that we can't bear to see it. It's like using an artifact to trim your nails. You are simply wasting your own and Irene Bella's potential. And you.
In that magic sword system, your openness is too low, and your understanding and application of the elements are a mess. You are simply begging for food on a golden plate."
"In order to prevent the Winter Veil Festival from becoming deserted again, when you have calmed down, let us old guys teach you how to understand ice and snow. God of elements? Haha, in front of some of us ancient beings, they are still just
Junior!
"Perhaps I am not the strongest among our clan, but I can still talk to you about the King of Lan's understanding of ice and snow back then. If my partner is still here, how can I allow these juniors to be rampant." (To be continued.
