Chapter 300: Ghosts of the Past

After entering the core of the Ice Palace, the palace on the top of Beiyaohan Mountain, Yi Xue's speed gradually slowed down.

A tall and majestic palace stands on the top of the mountain, above which is an empty and vast sky full of stars.

The cold mountain breeze, mixed with a few ice particles, blew past the cold rock walls and outer walls. A small number of guards patrolled the corridors and door cards, spending another ordinary day.

Yishe Green, who turned into a ghost, walked through the palace easily like an phantom. Even though she carefully looked at the scenery and layout of the palace, no one noticed her because she was not fast.

Nowadays, there are only three ice elves with sequence 8 and above, and they are not here. Almost no one can sense this Princess Mononoke, who is a necromancer.

Looking at the murals on the wall, walking through the halls and palaces, Ixue Green slowly touched the undulating carvings with her illusory palm.

Time flies, and these pictures always remind her of many past events.

When she carefully walked through every place in the palace, a day had passed, but it was the shadow season, and the sky was in the state of polar night, so no changes could be seen.

Finally, the Princess Mononoke stopped in a collection room in the back courtyard of the palace.

Where precious old objects are placed here, there are some portraits from the past, ceremonial armor from previous generations, and some decorations that are no longer in use.

The room is not big, but the things inside are all neatly arranged. They are wrapped in cotton cloth or oil paper, and then placed in boxes to fix them.

The reason why she came here was not because Yi Xue wanted to see these old objects, but because she noticed some unique settings here.

Protective and isolation-like pattern formations are very common in palaces, but the layout here is somehow hidden in several layers.

On the surface, it is a weak and common protective magic circle, but there are special isolation materials installed inside the wall. Even if the magic circle is not used, it can better hide the ripples, or fluctuations, of magic power.

Once she discovered something was wrong, Yi Xue investigated further and found more interesting and different things.

It turned out to be the secret technique of the elven royal family in the past. Yi Xue's eyes glowed with ice-blue brilliance as she looked down at the room in front of her.

It stands to reason that after her death, no one should be able to use this kind of secret technique. Even though many of the techniques used in the past were imitated, they should only be limited to that era. Now that the original version is gone, how can it be imitated.

As the secret magic slowly flows, touching certain nodes, and then triggering one after another according to its rules, complex snowflake engravings begin to appear on the wall.

Finally, there was a slight turning sound, a small door opened, and a spiral staircase entrance appeared in front of Yi Xue.

Sure enough, the secret is hidden here?

Yi Xue was thoughtful and then entered inside.

The stairs go straight down. There are no lights inside, or there are no such things set up in the first place. Instead, there are a lot of traps arranged on the road.

If some stone slabs are stepped on incorrectly, ice blades will be inserted immediately around the spiral staircase, piercing and strangling anyone walking on it.

It's a pity that ghosts have no entity, they don't care about these mechanisms, and they can't trigger them.

But as we went down, a special arrangement for ghosts finally appeared. A silver star-sand-like mist shrouded it. If ordinary ghosts entered it, they would be greatly harmed and corroded.

In this regard, Yi Xuegelin could only use some tricks to bypass this staircase tunnel with star sand and silver mist.

In this way, through constant exploration and solutions, Yixue Green slowly reached the bottom of the passage.

When the door slowly lifted up, four blue figures thrust out like swords, killing the newly arrived Yixue Green.

This is not a physical attack, the opponent also exists like a ghost, and his sword skills are sharp.

A series of collisions and icy blue sparks spread in the small space, and then the four ghosts were frozen on the ground and corners by the white frost, unable to move again.

Have you discovered yourself yet?

After stopping her hand, Yixue Gelin looked at the four ancient ghosts of the Necromancer Sequence 6 and thought to herself, but she did not panic and continued walking deeper inside.

Blossoming blue flames ignited and illuminated the ground, but disappointingly, there were no treasures buried here, or treasure boxes, exquisite cultural relics, or the like.

Some are just empty and simple corridors, stone doors, sarcophagi, etc.

Isn't it here?

She inspected it again and finally focused on several sarcophagi.

Things like sarcophagi are actually very inconsistent with the traditions of the elves. The three elves have always been buried in the ground in the past, and it is best to be buried under the World Tree. But then the war with the Mercury Dynasty broke out, and many corpses were too late to be restrained, and in order to prevent them from being used by the enemy. and blasphemy, so cremation also became popular.

And being placed in a stone coffin like this is similar to some traditions of the human True Red Empire, which is really rare.

Thinking like this, Yi Xue slowly transformed into a physical entity and slowly pushed a sarcophagus away. She wanted to see what was going on inside. Could it be a dead spirit that was even more special than herself?

The stale and cold atmosphere gradually escaped through the cracks, and after opening a small gap, a faint sigh came from inside.

"Has something big happened now?" The voice was extremely old, like the wind passing through the windows of a broken house, making a cold and desolate sound.

Seeing no answer from the people outside, another question came from inside?

"Whose descendant are you? Did you come here accidentally?" Not long after the words fell, a body of dark blue ice liquid slowly overflowed from the gap in the sarcophagus, and then slowly condensed into a vague human shape. .

It has to be said that this is a strange existence. It has elements similar to the ghosts of the undead sequence, and it is like a high degree of condensation of some kind of cold liquid. It still maintains a high degree of wisdom or reason, but its own combat strength may not even be able to survive. There is none in sequence 3.

"What a mess." Yi Xuege Lin looked at the 'monster' in front of her and let out a faint sigh.

It seems that some important figures in the past were afraid of dying, so they transformed themselves into this half-ghost, half-ice liquid existence in order to survive.

The reason why we don’t directly learn the ghosts of the necromancer sequence is because this method can lead to a narrow escape. Even the most powerful necromancers in life do not dare to say that they will definitely transform into sane ghosts after death. There are too many of them. Unknown and special places.

Generally speaking, high-level extraordinary beings are indeed more likely to transform into ghosts, but the probability is not higher than 10%. Most of the time, when they are defeated, the extraordinary core will be broken and the soul will be torn apart. If you want to have complete sanity, Or memory, which is even more rare.

"Who are you?" This half-dead ancient undead looked at the figure in front of him in confusion. Unfortunately, he had no eyeballs. He could only roughly know that this was a powerful existence in the undead sequence through the fluctuations of his soul.

"Did the Ice Palace also be captured by the Necromancers?" He seemed to have thought of something, and his body fell to the ground and turned into a puddle of liquid, which took a long time to condense again.

"I am not a necromancer, I am just a former ice elf." After being silent for a long time, Yixue Green finally chose to speak. She had some questions she wanted to ask.

In this quiet underground space, even a simple dictation was heard with extremely clear voice. The dark blue ice liquid ghost slowly twisted and asked doubtful questions.

"Then how did you get here? Have the ice elves been destroyed now?"

"No, I just discovered something different and quietly came in to investigate."

"I see." Even if the other party might be lying, he could only choose to believe it at this time.

"Then it's time for me to ask some questions." Yi Xue said.

"Please tell me."

"In what era did you transform into this appearance? Are the scenes in other sarcophagi the same?"

"This..." The other party hesitated for a while, thinking that this matter was not a secret that must be kept, and then spoke.

"I transformed into this appearance when the ice elves migrated to the northern continent. The other sarcophagi should be similar to mine."

"The reason for this is also because at that time, a large number of high-level extraordinary people in the clan passed away, and many people were lost. In order to prevent certain knowledge, or secret techniques, experiences, etc. from losing their inheritance, we chose to transform ourselves into this appearance.

."

"Is that so?" In response, Yi Xue relaxed her eyebrows slightly.

"What happened next?"

"What are you talking about?"

"I would like to ask, what major events happened after arriving in the Northern Continent?"

"As for major events, there don't seem to be too many drastic things. After experiencing the initial panic, we began to clean up some of the monsters entrenched in the mainland, and then occupied those suitable settlements to start building cities and slowly settled down."

"There was a shortage of food at first, but then the problem gradually got resolved."

"Others, namely some minor changes, don't seem to be worth mentioning."

"It's very gentle." Yi Xue commented softly.

"This has to be said to be lucky. We have passed on our past experience and history to generations of tribesmen, and we have successfully passed down the ice elves."

"Well, that's right." Yi Xue's voice was light.

If you are wrong, these elves are indeed not wrong. They were just trying to survive in the first place. But unfortunately, the development of the world will not give you preferential treatment just because you are not wrong.

When the ice elves were content and living in the northern continent, which was almost isolated from the world, with no competition, no pressure, and no change, everything almost came to a standstill.

No matter how beautiful the poem is, you will get tired of it after hearing it a thousand times. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will get tired of seeing it every day. When the outside world undergoes drastic changes and even evolution, many things in the ice elves have fallen behind. And this is like stagnant water.

Life has also caused many elves to suffer from the strange 'withering moon disease', which gradually withers away like a pale crescent moon.

This is because the elves have a high starting point and a good cultural foundation, so they can barely survive. If it is close, after the eastern dynasty discovers this place, it is estimated that a fleet can destroy it.

After continuing to talk to the ice ghost for a while, Ixeglin simply opened the other sarcophagi one by one.

The ice liquid ghosts among them have different personalities, and the eras they were born in are also different. Some are from the first era, and some are from the second era, but there is no longer the third era.

"Who are you?" Not all the ghosts awakened later were 'sane'. Some showed great hostility upon seeing this powerful undead sequence ghost, and began to retreat continuously, looking for ways to notify the outside world to issue a warning.

The scene started to get a little chaotic.

Seeing this, Yi Xue didn't seem surprised. She raised her hand slightly, and sharp and cold ice-gold flowers spread rapidly from her feet to all directions. Some ghosts were frozen and became motionless before they even had time to ask for mercy.

ice sculpture.

The secret room fell into silence again, with only the faint cold air slowly overflowing from the sharp petals.

As a half-dead spirit, they would not die immediately after being frozen, but now they had to think about the identity of this powerful undead spirit.

Why would she use such a rare secret technique?

The ice-gold flower is not a native flower in nature, but is created by the ice elves, or the world tree, and its most representative messenger is the last princess.

This reminds me of many things.

If, like them, the princess died...

"Now, can you listen carefully to what I'm saying?" Yi Xue's cold voice echoed faintly in the underground space.

Although the ghosts present could not answer, they successively sent messages of recognition.

In response, Yi Xue waved her hand again, melting the ice-gold flowers and causing the ice mist to dissipate.

"Dear Sir, who are you?" Someone finally started to ask about Yi Xue's identity.

"Such strength, and the unique ice-gold flower..." They guessed, but they couldn't believe it, after all, thousands of years had passed.

"That's right, it's me, the remains of Yishe Green after her death. You can regard me as her continuation, but after all, I am no longer the same as her."

As she spoke, the ghost princess gradually changed from fiction to reality and became clearly visible.

A beautiful and graceful figure slowly took shape. The complicated dress decorated with flowers and the delicate and graceful laurel wreath on her head all bore the luxurious and extremely complicated style of the elves in the first era.

Light pink and white irises were pinned in her hair, and her long skirt was dotted with layers of flowers. Fabric softer than silk and moonlight wrapped her moving figure. In the middle of her fair chest, there was a diamond-shaped

Gemstones are embellished in it, complementing the skin and face like a dream.

Looking at this strange yet extremely familiar figure, many ghosts fell into stagnation.

Shock, surprise, ecstasy, uneasiness, intimacy, anticipation, fear, all kinds of emotions hit them repeatedly like huge waves, making it difficult for them to calm down.

At this moment, they have too many questions to ask, how did Her Royal Highness the Princess reincarnate and resurrect, how did she survive thousands of years of time, and what does it mean for her to be here now? Many questions and

Ideas began to collide, triggering numerous associations and reveries.

"Come one by one, I think I will have a lot of time to talk to you tonight."

Scanning the ghosts present, Ixeglin gently sat on the throne made of ice flowers and began to ask and understand one by one.

In this way, until the starry night outside turns around, day after day passes.
