Chapter 191 Searching for the Star Core
Slowly walked out of the dark and deep passage that seemed to have no end.
When the bright sunshine and the cool wind blew on everyone's faces, March 7 couldn't help but stretch himself and sighed with satisfaction.
"Ah~ I'm finally back. I'd forgotten what normal air smells like."
Her face was bathed in the sun, and her satisfied expression was like a flower that had finally received rain after a long drought.
The same thing happened to Xiao Wu who was standing beside her. She had never liked the muddy smell below, so she couldn't wait to hug Lin Tian's arm. The expression on her face was so happy and cheerful, like a happy little bird.
"Although it's a bit cold up there, the air is pretty good, right, Brother Tian?" Xiao Wu's voice was as clear as a bell, full of dependence.
Seeing Xiao Wu's actions, San Yueqi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Sister Xiaowu, is it necessary to show affection in front of us in broad daylight? You will be punished."
"Really? Don't lie to me." Xiao Wu showed a trace of suspicion on her face. Just as she was about to let go, Lin Tian hugged her in his arms.
"You silly rabbit, you believe such things." Lin Tian's voice was gentle and doting, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Let's go. I have already made an appointment with the Great Guardian. She is waiting for you." After Lin Tian said this, he took firm steps and led the way.
Xiao Wu also puffed up her cheeks and glared at San Yueqi fiercely. Her eyes seemed to say, "I will remember this grudge." This playful look made everyone laugh.
Not long after, everyone arrived at Belob Castle and saw Cocolia who had been waiting for a long time.
"You are here!" Cocolia's voice sounded a little cold in the cold wind.
"Before, due to some force majeure reasons, I did some hurtful things. I apologize to you here." Cocolia's eyes were full of sincerity and guilt.
Except for Lin Tian and others, no one present expected that the Great Guardian would apologize to them the first time they saw him. This surprised them.
However, March 7th also stood up immediately with an open-minded smile on his face.
"Actually, we already know the reason, so we don't blame you. But you said you would take us there to find the star core. Is that true or false?"
"Of course it's true, but are you really sure you can solve the star core?"
Seeing Cocolia questioning herself, March Seven walked forward, held her head high, and patted her chest confidently.
"Of course. This isn't the first time we've done this. We're very professional. Trust us."
Cocolia glanced at Lin Tian beside her, then nodded.
"That's fine, but the place where the star core is located is very dangerous. It's very cold there, and ordinary people can't adapt to it. You still have the little girl from the lower city. If you have made up your mind, come with me."
After Kokolia finished speaking, she saw that no one left, so she led everyone out of Beilebo Castle.
Then they headed west, and after leaving the administrative square, they left the city and came to a slightly remote canyon.
Here, ice and snow cover the sky, and all you see is a pure white world.
There are many human-like ice sculptures around, with different postures, some holding weapons, some glaring, as if telling the story of the tragic battle hundreds of years ago.
These ice sculptures are all soldiers left behind by the Legion of Destruction hundreds of years ago. In this cold world, they have solidified into an eternal memorial.
As soon as everyone arrived here, a biting cold air hit them in the face like a sharp blade. Except for Lin Tian, everyone couldn't help but shiver.
Xiao Wu even let out a soft cry and threw herself directly into Lin Tian's warm arms, like a kitten seeking shelter, her face full of dependence.
This made Cocolia, who was leading the way, frown and clench her fists subconsciously. A hint of barely perceptible jealousy flashed in her eyes, and her pace quickened a bit.
However, Xiao Wu did not notice these things. Instead, she asked with a smile, "Brother Tian, why is it so cold here?" Her voice trembled slightly because of the cold.
Before Lin Tian could speak, Cocolia took the lead in explaining. Her voice seemed a little vague in the cold wind: "This is Yongdonglin, the forbidden area of the entire Beloberg."
"The star core you're looking for is inside. Therefore, the coldest temperature in this area is arguably the lowest on the entire planet. Everyone, be careful."
After Kokolia finished speaking, she walked up the steep and dangerous hillside, and everyone followed immediately.
But after walking for less than an hour, the cold became colder and colder, as if it could freeze people's bone marrow.
This made Sanyueqi tremble and say, "Um~Great Guardian, how long will it take before we can see the star core?"
"I feel like if we keep going any further, we might collapse before we even see the star core." March Seven hugged his arms tightly, his teeth chattering.
Cocolia frowned, looking a little confused.
"We're still about halfway to the top, but it wasn't this cold when I came here a few years ago. I don't know why it's like this now."
"Everyone, keep trying. We'll be there in a little while. Use whatever means are necessary. If you can't hold on any longer, you can retreat first. Safety is the most important thing."
As soon as Cocolia finished speaking, the entire ground began to tremble slightly.
Accompanied by bursts of dull buzzing sounds, a large amount of white snow emerged in front of them, surging towards everyone like surging waves.
"Oh no! It's an avalanche, everyone be careful." Cocolia yelled, her voice full of tension and fear.
The cold air quickly gathered in her right hand, turning into a diamond-shaped ice shield more than ten meters high that stood in front of her.
Boom~
When the avalanche hit the ice shield, there was a deafening roar and dense cracks appeared on the huge ice shield in an instant, but fortunately it managed to hold up.
At the same time, a whistling sound came from the air, and hundreds of huge ice cones fell directly on everyone like meteorites.
"It's over, it's over! I'm going to die here!" San Yue Qi was so scared that his face turned pale. He screamed and hid behind Xing, his body shaking constantly.
Such a critical situation made everyone panic and at a loss.
Just when Xiao Wu and Alicia were about to take action to deal with these ice cones.
Lin Tian calmly opened his hands, and a brilliant flame flew out from his hands, then turned into a majestic fire dragon, instantly burning all the ice cones in the air.
The high temperature emitted by the fire dragon not only dispelled the cold for everyone, but also turned its head and a blazing flame spewed out of its mouth, melting all the white snow in front of it and revealing the road to the top of the mountain.
As the crisis was resolved, San Yueqi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lin Tian, who had a calm face, with a look of emotion on his face.
"You seem so quiet, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful. But why didn't you take action earlier? You've kept us frozen for so long, we're going to get frozen to death."
"You didn't ask." Lin Tian smiled, with a hint of helplessness in his smile.
Then he closed his eyes, and his spiritual sense spread out, and soon he could see everything within a radius of millions of kilometers.
His originally smiling face also underwent some imperceptible changes, becoming solemn and serious.
"It seems that things are worse than we thought." Lin Tian's voice was low and heavy.
Lin Tian’s words made everyone feel very puzzled. “Brother Tian, what happened?” Xiao Wu asked anxiously.
"Just as we were on our way here, the rift creatures in the entire lower and upper city areas all rioted. A large number of monsters poured out from them and are attacking the upper and lower city areas." Lin Tian's voice was full of worry.
"It seems that the Star Core knew where we were going, so it did this on purpose to distract us."
As soon as these words were spoken, Cocolia, Bronya and Hill's faces turned ugly, as if covered by a layer of haze.
"No, I have to go back. Once these creatures enter the city or downtown, there will be serious casualties." Bronya said anxiously, her eyes full of worry.
Seeing that Bronya and Hill were about to leave, Lin Tian reached out to stop them.
"No need. I just sensed that there are at least tens of thousands of these cracked creatures." Lin Tian's voice was steady and powerful.
"So even if you guys go back, it won't be of much use. The most urgent thing is to deal with the star core first."
"As for the monster issue, I will take care of it." After Lin Tian finished speaking, a mysterious space crack slowly opened in front of everyone.
"Xiao Wu, Ailishiya, you two go back and guard the upper and lower city areas first to prevent monsters from entering. I will help them get rid of the star core quickly." Lin Tian's eyes were full of trust.
"Okay, Xiaotian, then you have to work hard." Alicia said with a smile.
As Xiao Wu and Alicia left, Lin Tian also looked at everyone.
"Don't worry, they are both very powerful and can handle those monsters without any problem. Let's go and get rid of the star core."
"This is the only way." March Seven sighed, then quickened his pace with everyone else.
Fortunately, with Lin Tian's help this time, after dispelling the cold air, it took less than ten minutes to reach a step frozen by ice.
Once we got here, we were not far from our destination.
After walking for a while, they arrived at a huge and empty square.
In the center of the square, there is a creature covered in ice, floating quietly in the air.
