Chapter 185 - The Great Crisis of the Far North
After passing through the Kovo Plateau, the two of them finally arrived at the far north.
“Why do I feel a strange power here?”
“I feel it too!”
“Should we continue moving forward?”
Mike nodded.
The two of them sensed the constantly expanding power and walked in that direction.
Although the aura of the power was still weak, Mike could still vaguely sense its source and direction.
The deeper they went, Mike and Lilian found that the temperature in the far north had dropped even more the further north they went.
Mike had only heard a little about the mysteries of the far north from the Nameless Saint.
However, he had never seen such a scene before.
Suddenly, a tornado appeared in front of Mike and Lilian and headed straight towards them.
The tornado had a very low temperature.
Mike and Lilian could see bits of ice through the gaps in the tornado.
Mike shouted, “Lilian! Be careful!”
The tornado was charging towards Mike and Lilian at an extremely fast speed.
What Mike had not expected was that even he could not predict the speed of the tornado.
Mike had no choice but to quickly take out the Scarlet Magic Sword.
He used the Scarlet Magic Sword as a carrier to release the endless fire energy in his body towards the tornado.
At the moment, the endless flames were continuously roasting the entire northernmost land.
Mike could feel that the surrounding temperature seemed to have risen because of the flames emitted by the Scarlet Magic Sword.
Both of Mike’s hands tightly gripped the hilt of the Scarlet Magic Sword, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.
At this moment, the Scarlet Magic Sword seemed to have received Mike’s call in his heart.
In this extremely cold land in the far north, a huge flame exploded.
The tornado on the ice field had been split into two parts after receiving Mike’s heavy blow.
Then, it finally disappeared in front of Mike and Lilian’s eyes.
After seeing that the crisis was over, Mike finally let out a sigh of relief.
Then, he said to Lilian, “I really didn’t expect that the northernmost land would be so dangerous!”
After hearing Mike’s words, Lilian also chimed in.
“If we hadn’t gone to the Sea of Heaven first, I feel that our progress might have been much slower!”
Mike nodded, then continued to speak to Lilian.
“In that case, let’s continue to set off to find the Nameless Saint now!”
Lilian nodded. Then, Mike and Lilian continued their journey to the far north.
…
Mike and Lilian finally arrived at the center of the far north.
There was no longer any snow falling from the sky, and only endless ice shards remained.
Over here, Mike and Lilian could not feel any signs of life at all.
Even so, Mike and Lilian could clearly feel that the aura of the power from before was getting stronger and stronger.
“What do you think, Mike? Do you have any clues now?” Asked Lilian as she leaned in close to Mike.
Mike shook his head and continued to look at Lilian. Suddenly, Mike felt something so he immediately bent down to the ground.
Upon seeing what Mike had done, Lilian immediately asked, “What’s wrong, Mike? Did you find something?”
Mike was not paying attention to Lilian’s words.
Instead, he was focused on the layer of ice under his feet.
Mike pushed the thick snow away from the ice layer.
Through the frozen ground, Mike saw a few fierce-looking corpses.
At this time, Lilian was also moving towards him.
When her gaze moved to the bottom of the ice, she was shocked.
“What… What is this?” Lilian asked loudly.
After a moment of careful observation, Mike looked up at Lilian and said, “It looks like the soldiers sent by the Lieluo Army to look for the Nameless Saint!”
“Then… how did they become… become like this?”
Lilian asked again.
When he heard Lilian’s question, Mike thought for a moment before answering her.
“I think they might have encountered a tornado too!
“If not, they wouldn’t have turned into this!”
Lilian sighed deeply after hearing Mike’s words.
Then, Mike stood up and said, “I think we should continue to move in the direction of that mysterious force!
“This might be the central area of the tornado!”
Before Mike finished his words, more tornadoes started coming from all directions.
Mike and Lilian were completely surprised.
At this point, Mike also felt that things were not good.
So, Mike shouted at Lilian.
“Lilian! Run!”
Lilian was still in a daze.
Everything seemed to be too late.
So, Mike immediately pulled out the Scarlet Magic Sword and slashed at all the tornadoes in the surroundings.
Countless flames hovered over the entire ice field.
This was a collision of high and low temperatures.
At the same time, the tornadoes were obviously not small.
Mike’s Scarlet Magic Sword seemed to be completely useless against these tornadoes.
In this desperate situation before him, Mike’s ability seemed to have completely lost its effectiveness.
Lilian finally reacted.
“No! Mike!”
Suddenly, a huge tornado blew towards Mike.
This tornado also engulfed half of Mike’s arm at an extremely fast speed.
Although Mike was still conscious, his arm had become completely frozen at this moment.
At this critical moment, Lilian also flew up into the air.
She released a lot of heavy true energy in an attempt to disperse the tornado.
However, it was not effective.
By this time, Mike was already half frozen by the tornado.
Seeing this, Lilian shouted in despair again.
“No! Mike! No!”
Then, a strong light suddenly appeared in the sky.
As the light shone, it seemed to create an illusion.
It was unclear whether the sky had lit up the earth or whether the golden light on the ground was being reflected in the sky.
From the endless clouds in the sky, an unfamiliar figure walked out.
Accompanied by bursts of golden light, the person raised his hand and waved.
The countless tornadoes then completely dispersed.
“You… Who are you?”
