Chapter 695: Chapter 695 The magnificent palace between the snow peaks

The peaks of Aoyun mountain range were long and continuous with never melting snow all year round. Every white peak of it was hidden in the clouds in the sky. Legend had it that this was the closest place to the Supreme God. It was also said that this place hid the palace where the Supreme God once descended from the sky.

Many beautiful and ancient myths were mostly linked inextricably with this place. Someone once claimed to have seen that magnificent and metal shimmering huge palace here, but no one has ever been able to bring out anything from it alive to prove that they had indeed entered the majestic slender building that was said to be built between the two largest peaks.

After all, this was also the forbidden zone of life. Only the most outstanding blue-haired knights and noble lords dared to enter here. Legend had it that there were countless hallucinations and ghosts between the clouds and snowy mountains. There were often scenes of mysterious people or explosions that appeared nearby people without any warning. They looked panicked and terrified, like the last moment before their death, screaming and running in the palace with their faces filled with despair.

However, even those outstanding people didn’t dare to stay here for too long. If they did not retreat to the plain at the foot of the mountain after seven days, then what awaited them would be the death curse of the devil or the punishment of the gods. Their hair would be falling out on the eighth day; their flesh and blood would fester into abscesses on the ninth day, and their bones would begin to rot on the thirteenth day…

No one could challenge the forbidden area of the gods, whether it was a blue-haired noble or a black-haired slave, even the noblest servant and the powerful minister of a temple dared not enter the Aoyun mountain range rashly. But there was a desperate man who had to approach it in a great panic, for behind him there was no way out, and everywhere there were men in hot pursuit.

In the wind and snow, Hull was so cold that his skin had turned bluish-purple and his limbs were stiff. Step by step, he climbed towards the top of the mountain with great effort. He dared not stop, for that would make him never stand up again. Only by walking continuously could he feel his own existence.

Hull believed that he should come here. The great and only Supreme God had summoned him, so he must also come here, and then follow the arrangements of the Supreme God.

This was the only meaning for him to live.

He was very scared and nervous. When he climbed halfway up the mountain, the fabled hallucinations and ghosts appeared without warning. Although those screaming and running ghosts did not drag him into the Land of the Dead like what it said in legends, Hull was still very frightened.

Because those ghosts or undead had the same hair color as him – the black color! However, the clothes they were wearing were hundreds of times more elegant than the blue-haired nobles. Even in those realistic and extremely terrifying explosions in palace rooms, there were still a small number of undead running out of the rooms with those elegant dresses, but they were soon submerged by another violent explosion…

Every time Hall saw them collapse in despair in the flames, he would not be able to help himself but tremble. If that was the land of the dead, he would rather die in the cold sea than suffer such torment.

But he had nowhere to escape. Since the last time, the Supreme God has never appeared again, as if he was doubting his loyalty and faith, and was about to abandon him. Therefore, in order to prove his loyalty and to show his heart piously to the Supreme God, Hull came here, ready to regain the trust of the Supreme God at the cost of his life.

He felt that the Supreme God was still calling him. Especially after he arrived at the Aoyun mountain range. As long as he put on the transparent hemispherical cover, there would be countless rapid and terrifying roars coming from somewhere between the snow peaks. He didn’t understand those voices, he didn’t know what they were talking about, but in any case, they could guide him forward.

After walking for a long time and crawling for a long time, exhausted, Hull felt that his soul was about to be frozen. In a trance, he seemed to feel that his hair started to fall off, and his flesh and blood began to fester. Then, behind the wind and snow and the illusion, he saw a magnificent and slender palace…

The corpses under Chu Yunsheng’s feet were piled higher and higher, but there were still countless red-shelled insects launching waves of desperate attacks from the bottom of the pile.

The twelve awakeners and Phantom Warriors had already gathered around him and shrunk into an airtight inner circle. They cast out fire and ice attacks non-stop, trying to kill as many red-shelled insects as possible.

The entrance of the space tunnel had already been buried by the corpses of insects under their feet, but Chu Yunsheng, standing at the top of it, didn’t let his guard down. He was still paying attention to its movements and energy fluctuations.

At this moment, the icicle whirlwind talisman became the most effective weapon. As they were cast out by Chu Yunsheng one by one, they formed a whirlwind of many icicles outside the inner circle, piercing the dense swarm of red-shelled insects and freezing them into insect-shaped ice sculptures.

The red-shelled insects in the back ignored the deaths of their front companions and quickly climbed up from their bodies while spitting corrosive liquid at Chu Yunsheng and other people.

They couldn’t get closer to the inner circle formed by Chu Yunsheng and others. The place around them was a death zone. As long as they rushed there, the ruthless icicles and sharp sword lights would blast them into pieces.

On the periphery of the swarm, the main force of the fourth warzone of war led by awakeners had also initiated the counterattack and started to push back step by step, removing the red-shelled insects they encountered on the periphery one by one. The first and seventh war zones also launched an attack to harass from the sides.

The insects that have gradually fallen into the trap of mankind seemed to have no idea about this. They were still desperately attacking Chu Yunsheng’s group.

However, with the assistance of twelve elite awakeners and phantom warriors, the pressure of Chu Yunsheng at this moment was not very great.

Little by little, the three gold-shelled insects hiding under the ground were running out of patience, and after the red-shelled insects on the ground failed to breakthrough Chu Yunsheng’s defense for a long time, they finally broke out from the ground and spat blazing fire at Chu Yunsheng.

Although Chu Yunsheng, the twelve elite awakeners, and the phantom warlords were also on guard, there were too many red-shelled. The dense silhouettes obscured the line of sight, and the chaotic fire energy had also confused the energy fluctuations. Not to mention other people, even Chu Yunsheng also could not immediately notice that they had broken out of the ground. Only when the fire dragon-like flames were spat out, did he cast out six ice trap talismans as fast as he could.

But at this time, the burning flames could no longer be stopped easily. The three fire dragons melted all the insects on the way, rushing to the location of Chu Yunsheng and others, and finally gathered at one point. The rapidly rising temperature instantly killed one awakener and injured two phantom warriors.

“You start to attack with talismans, I will deal with them!”

Chu Yun shouted and then jumped into the swarm. Using several Icicle whirlwind talismans, he made a path in the swarm.

The ice trap talisman couldn’t trap the golden-shelled insects for too long. The red-shelled insects around them were all fire elemental creatures, and there were a lot of them. Therefore, he must kill them before the ice melted.

Very soon, the first golden-shelled insect was killed. After the sword penetrated the ice, Chu Yunsheng unleashed a round of sword qi straight into the golden-shelled insect’s mouth and destroyed all its internal organs.

However, Chu Yunsheng had no intention of checking the result. He immediately turned around and rushed to the second golden-shelled insect. At this time, half of the head of this golden-shelled insect was about to break out from the ice. After clearing a wave of red-shelled insects that were charging toward him, Chu Yunsheng unleashed a frost arrow to freeze the golden-shelled insect again. Then he stabbed the sword into the ice and unleashed the sword qi into its mouth again. After that, he immediately turned around and headed toward the third one.

But the last golden-shelled insect had already broken out of the ice trap talisman. Opening the huge mouth, the burning flames turned the air into the white steam, and rushed towards the rest of the twelve awakeners and the phantom warriors. The injured awakener was instantly killed, and the other two heavily injured had completely lost the ability two fight. Moreover, many more had different degrees of injuries.

Chu Yunsheng, who rushed over hurriedly, didn’t give it a chance to spit the flames for the third time. After jumping onto its head, it stabbed the sword into its mouth again and unleashed the final round of the sword qi. While it was dying, Chu Yunsheng cast out one monster seal talisman he had already prepared and sealed it…

The battle lasted for two days and one night. Almost everyone was exhausted.

When the last red-shelled insect died in wailing sorrowfully, the entire fourth war zone was already covered with the bodies of both humans and insects densely packed together…

Chu Yunsheng thought that the tomb breeder would appear in the space tunnel in the end.

However, probably it knew that it was not safe, it never appeared. It probably would find other safer space tunnels to come to earth.

After smoking a cigarette, he saw the fat division commander Liu Yimin hurriedly step on the slimy corpse and rush over. Wiping the sweat on his forehead, he said breathlessly, “Mr. Chu, the soldier who cleaned the battlefield found a flying green-shelled insect that hasn’t died yet. I don’t know if we should kill it directly or give it to the scientific research base?”
