Chapter 364 The Storm Arose

Crossing the sea and over the glaciers, in the depths of the beautiful and yet severely cold polar region, two people in black walked forward silently in a world of ice and snow.

It was summer in the northern hemisphere, but the deepest part of the polar region was still full of fast ice.

The glaciers emanating chill stretched out over the seawater that had frozen. The sun glistened dreamily on the glaciers. Everything in sight was white, transparent, and holy.

The two people in black walked in a clean and pure world. Seen from a distance, they looked like the two most striking little black dots.

They climbed over one glacier after another as easily as walking on flat ground.

The Arctic summer was the polar day.

As one stood on the North Pole, his front, back, left, right, east, west, north, and south, were all south.

The burning sun set in the south for a moment, and before the darkness came, the sun rose again.

There was no night but daytime during polar days.

Time seemed to have lost its meaning. The two people in black marched all the way in the polar region, but there was only silence.

The two people in black were one man and one woman. The woman at the front was tall and plump and was wrapped up in a black cloak. Seen from her back, she was almost as strong as a horse. The man behind her was lean and even thin. The loose-bodied cloak looked empty over him. However, it enabled him to have a vague air of elegance.

He silently followed the tall woman in front, silent like a shadow.

The rising summer sun shone deep in the polar region.

The sun dyed every corner of the polar region golden.

A man and a woman ascended the glacier ahead of them and stood at the apex. The deepest landform of the entire base suddenly appeared in front of the two.

It was the coldest spot at the core of the entire polar region.

The wind and snow were howling under the sun, with biting cold and sharp ice debris.

A mountain appeared in front of the two in black.

A mountain formed entirely from fast ice.

It was unrealistic to say that it was a glacier. In front of them, there was an undulating mountain.

The mountain range was tall and magnificent, stretching to the horizon. The holy white and the sky seemed to be linked together. It was a breathtaking spectacle.

Behind the glacier was a vast deep ocean in the center of the polar region, which was out of reach.

“Here it is.”

Without knowing how long the silence lasted, the tall and plump woman took the initiative to break the silence and said softly, “Barentel Glacier.”

Barentel.

It was an ancient word of a small nation in the northernmost part of Snow Country, meaning the end of the world.

The man behind the woman took off the cloak that made him uncomfortable.

He breathed deeply. Under the sun, a handsome face that few in the Dark World recognized appeared, though its owner did represent the peak power of the Dark World.

“Nice scenery.”

Lin Fengting looked around and chuckled. “After this incident, maybe I should visit the South Pole. I’ve been to so many beautiful places over the years, but few places are purer than the polar region. I like this place, without secular entanglement. It’s like heaven and yet hell.”

“You like it?”

The tall woman turned and looked at Lin Fengting.

The cap on the cloak was large, covering her entire face perfectly. Her eyes were hidden in the dark and looked a bit blurred.

Lin Fengting had cooperated with the Samsara Palace.

But in the entire Samsara Palace, only one person, the most mysterious Master of Samsara Palace, was able to pull Lin Fengting to the deepest part of the polar region from Mormans.

“You don’t like it?”

Lin Fengting laughed and looked ahead at the Barentel Glacier, which connected the sky and earth.

Seen from another angle, they could also see the endless deep ocean behind the glacier.

The glacier was white.

But the ocean behind the glacier was blue and even a little bit black, with a kind of despairing and mighty pressure.

black and white.

It was like heaven and yet like hell.

“Since you like the glacier, how about I send it to you, Mr. Lin?” said the Master of the Samsara Palace.

Everyone in the Samsara Palace called Lin Fengting Mr. Lin, showing their respect and politeness toward him.

But the Master of Samsara Palace had no emotional fluctuations when she called him like that.

“No need to do that.”

Lin Fengting said with a smile, “It’s good to enjoy it, but I won’t live in it.”

“Living in it may not be worse than in the Lin Clan’s headquarters.”

The Master of Samsara Palace stretched out and pointed at the glacier ahead, saying calmly, “That’s what I’m looking for.”

Lin Fengting froze, looking ahead at the majestic glacier that seemed to occupy the entire polar region.

The Master of Samsara Palace asked him out and just said she was looking for something.

Lin Fengting didn’t ask what it was. With his strength, he didn’t have to worry about anyone plotting against him.

Only now did Lin Fengting knew it was the glacier the Master of Samsara Palace was looking for.

“Here…”

Lin Fengting was hesitant.

Now in the whole Dark World, maybe he was the only person who knew the identity of the Master of Samsara Palace. This mysterious Palace Master in the eyes of outsiders had met Lin Fengting more than once in Lin’an.

He knew her past and could foresee her future. If not, he would not have made the decision to let Qin Weibai control the Lin Clan for the next two decades.

Nevertheless, this woman’s mind was too unrestrained. Her advantages in some areas were so great that it was difficult for any intelligent person to understand her plans thoroughly.

“It’s the headquarters of the Polar Ground Alliance.”

The Master of Samsara Palace delivered a startling message in an indifferent tone. “The real headquarters. It’s inside the Barentel Glacier.”

Lin Fengting’s body shook instinctively. He looked up abruptly at the Master of Samsara Palace.

The headquarters of the Polar Ground Alliance?

In the Dark World, it was not difficult to find the headquarters of the Polar Ground Alliance at all, because unlike the Samsara Palace, it was an alliance.

It was an alliance with Snow Country at its core. Its tentacles extended to more than a dozen countries in Eastern Europe. It had an extremely large but relatively loose sphere of influence.

The headquarters of such a power group was arguably the most visible.

In everyone’s intelligence, the headquarters of the Polar Ground Alliance should be on a glacier in a polar circle not far from Mormans, rather than inside the largest glacier in the core of the polar region.

The distance between the two headquarters was at least thousands of kilometers.

“So, like the Samsara Palace, the headquarters of the Polar Ground Alliance in Mormans is fake?”

Lin Fengting was shocked and returned to normal immediately.

In the final analysis, he was only an ally of the Samsara Palace. The Lin Clan did not enter the secular world. No matter how mysterious the Polar Ground Alliance was, it had nothing to do with him.

“That’s true, too, because that’s really where the Polar Ground Alliance handles its daily affairs. However, its headquarters here is more secluded, and only a few core members are eligible to enter here. Some small-scale but cutting-edge laboratories inside the Polar Ground Alliance are here as well,” the Master of Samsara Palace explained meticulously.

Lin Fengting smiled suddenly. “You knew this place before?”

“I have only vague clues about it. It wasn’t in my sight before.”

The Master of Samsara Palace’s tone was calm.

“With some vague clues, you find the most secluded headquarters of the Polar Ground Alliance in a few days?”

Lin Fengting obviously did not believe her.

“Three years.”

The Master of Samsara Palace turned to look at Lin Fengting. “Three years ago, the people in the Samsara Palace began to look for it, given those vague clues, and there was no news until a few days ago.”

Lin Fengting looked at the glacier in front of him.

There was nothing wrong with the glacier. It was cold and holy.

But inside the glacier was the headquarters of a superpower with the most complex, massive, and even redundant structures in the entire Dark World and even in Eastern Europe.

Lin Fengting was amazed by that.

It may not be difficult to cut-through the glacier, but time-honored organizations like the Polar Ground Alliance had plentiful resources, totally unlike the newly-rising Samsara Palace.

Why did they have to set up such a secluded headquarters here?

The Samsara Palace needed to be hidden.

In the final analysis, that was because of their lack of strength and resources.

The Lin Clan was unknown because its members were living a sequestered life. And that case only limited to the headquarters.

The branches of the Lin Clan scattered around the world threw their weight around with overweening arrogance on their own territories.

Just like the Wang family of Beihai.

Their headquarters was located on Mount Dibing, Beihai Province.

But no one dared to provoke them for centuries.

Most of the people who had that kind of boldness died.

That was confidence.

The Polar Ground Alliance should have such confidence, but why should they set up the headquarters here?

If it wasn’t for their lack of confidence, it only showed that there was a great secret here.

Lin Fengting sat down on the glacier.

The howling wind and snowflakes in the air suddenly stopped for a while as he sat down.

For a moment, the world was plunged into silence.

Lin Fengting asked, “Do you need me to tack action today?”

Mormans, the battlefield of the final battle, was at least a thousand kilometers away from here. But the Master of Samsara Palace appeared here. Whatever her purpose, she couldn’t have come here for sightseeing.

“Yes, I do.”

The Master of Samsara Palace nodded.

“How far do I need to go? To kill Tyrant?”

Lin Fengting narrowed his eyes.

The Polar Ground Alliance.

Tyrant.

He ranked eighth on the new Divine List, possessing Mountain Shatterer, the murderous weapon of Snow Country. He himself and the murderous weapon were absolute power-type superiors. He even had the power to tear mountains to fill oceans while attacking the enemy.

The Master of Samsara Palace ranked fourth on the Divine List.

But according to Lin Fengting’s understanding of the Master of Samsara Palace, if Tyrant held Mountain Shatterer, the Master of Samsara Palace would be no match for Tyrant under normal circumstances, when Blue Sky Underworld was not around. Even if she could win, she would be badly hurt.

“You just need to injure Tyrant severely on the premise that Mountain Shatterer has run out of energy.

“The alive Tyrant is more in the interest of the Samsara Palace,” whispered the Master of Samsara Palace.

“Can the Samsara Palace gain any benefit?”

Lin Fengting looked at the Master of Samsara Palace meaningfully.

The Dark World was in turmoil, but the situation was becoming clearer.

Northern Europe, Tiannan, North America, South America. Battlefields were everywhere.

The strength of the Samsara Palace had suffered a great deal from operating in various battlefields. The Samsara Palace was like a disabled man before the final battle began. Now the fire was about to burn in Eastern Europe, led by the Samsara Palace. Even the most optimistic people found it hard to believe that there was any way out for the Samsara Palace.

Destruction seemed to be the only ending.

When the destruction was round the corner, what was the use of the so-called benefit?

“Of course we can.”

The Master of Samsara Palace’s tone was positive and firm.

Lin Fengting then remembered that the real headquarters of the Samsara Palace was in Zhongzhou State.

“The real headquarters of the Samsara Palace is in Zhongzhou State… You are in Snow Country, and I’m sure you’ve handed the real headquarters over to someone you trust. I think I understand why Military Counselor and Saint didn’t come to Snow Country. Is the real headquarters of the Samsara Palace under the control of Military Counselor and Saint?”

The Master of Samsara Palace was silent.

“As the code name ‘Military Counselor’ implies, I can probably figure out his position in the Samsara Palace. The code name ‘Saint’ is interesting. Is he your disciple?”

Lin Fengting’s smile was a little weird and meaningful. He seemed to have thought of something interesting.

“He doesn’t approve of my Martial Arts.

“And I have nothing to teach him. But there are some materials left by the real Chosen One in the Samsara Palace. Those materials, if everything goes well, are enough to make him enter the Invincible Realm at the last minute. Saint can also be regarded as the disciple of the Chosen One,” the Master of Samsara Palace said blandly.

The Chosen One…

A hint of regret flashed through Lin Fengting’s eyes.

He knew who the Chosen One was in the mouth of the Master of Samsara Palace.

“How did you explain those materials to Saint?” Lin Fengting asked, his tone complicated.

The Master of Samsara Palace did not speak.

Lin Fengting seemed to understand something, nodded, and muttered to himself, “So Saint knows who you are, too.”

“So, the relationship between the Samsara Palace and Saint sound like a deal?”

He got no reply but silence.

“Then such a man is not worthy of your full trust. So, everything in the Samsara Palace is in the hands of Military Counselor? Why do you trust him?”

Lin Fengting kept talking as if he were a chatterbox.

“Because he is a smart man,” the Master of Samsara Palace replied simply and did not seem to want to talk much.

Lin Fengting thought for a while and nodded in recognition. “He’s indeed smart enough.”

The Master of Samsara Palace took out an antiquated pocket watch and looked at it.

The pocket watch had a complicated dial that showed the time and date.

The night of July 26.

It was the morning of July 26 in Zhongzhou State.

The Master of Samsara Palace looked up at the scorching sun hanging in the sky.

The Master of Samsara Palace said softly, “You only need to help me block Mountain Shatterer today, Mr. Lin.”

Among the 12 Murderous Weapons, the power of Mountain Shatterer was extremely fierce. Without Mountain Shatterer, Tyrant’s strength would decrease. Then the Master of Samsara Palace alone would be able to beat him.

“Tell me about your plans.

“All plans,” said Lin Fengting calmly.

“My only plan is the Polar Ground Alliance.

“This place is the battlefield I chose early on. And from today on, there will be new opportunities in the Dark World,” the Master of Samsara Palace said clearly.

The Master of Samsara Palace looked into the distance at the glacier ahead and asked, “What’s the Polar Ground Alliance?”

Before Lin Fengting could answer her, she already muttered to herself, “In the so-called Polar Ground Alliance, the alliance is what matters. It’s a superpower supported by Snow Country and more than ten neighboring countries. This community of shared interests is formed by the oligarchs of Snow Country, the influential families in neighboring countries, and some dark forces in Eastern Europe. The final battle of Heaven Capital three days ago was just a rehearsal. It can be regarded as the first half of my plan, and the second half is in Snow Country.”

Lin Fengting listened to her quietly.

“Everyone has ambition. The stronger the strength, the greater the power, the higher the status, the more uncontrolled the ambition. It’s said that the Polar Ground Alliance controls the power of Snow Country and more than ten neighboring countries in some aspects. But is that really the case? It is better to say that the Polar Ground Alliance is hampered and influenced by the countries in Eastern Europe than to say that these countries set up the Polar Ground Alliance. If you were Tyrant, you had the biggest superpower in the Dark World, but you had to face the containment in all aspects from Snow Country and other countries all day, would you reconcile yourself to that? What should we call the Tyrant like that?”

“A puppet!”

Lin Fengting blurted out subconsciously.

“Therefore, the Polar Ground Alliance had civil strife a few years ago. Because the Polar Ground Alliance, too, wanted to change. Or rather, Tyrant himself wanted to change. He set up the headquarters here and dispatched his trusted subordinates here, for he wanted to develop slowly, finally get rid of the shackles from various countries, and become the only true tyrant in the Dark World of Eastern Europe!”

The Master of Samsara Palace seemed to smile, but her smile was a little cold. “And what the Samsara Palace did was to cooperate with Tyrant. But our movements were a bit fast. After seizing the opportunity, we accelerated his plan ten or even a dozen times faster than he could react.”

Just as Lin Fengting had worked out a hint of meaning, the Master of Samsara Palace had made a definite conclusion.

“The secret actions of Tyrant are tantamount to challenging the bottom line of Eastern European countries. The Samsara Palace helped to speed up the process secretly. We may fail, but Tyrant will definitely fail. As long as Tyrant is seriously injured today, and the headquarters here is exposed, the Polar Ground Alliance will fall apart completely instead of just having civil strife. Eastern European countries waiting for an opportunity will use all means to deal with Tyrant, and the influential families inside the Polar Ground Alliance will also fight for power internally. The Polar Ground Alliance without Tyrant is still the Polar Ground Alliance. It’s a benefit so great that no one can afford to ignore, including Snow Country. So the final battle will take place in Eastern Europe, and the Eastern European countries will also fight openly and secretly for obtaining the Polar Ground Alliance. If different countries want to re-establish the Polar Ground Alliance and gain real dominant right, they will have to contact other superpowers…”

The Master of Samsara Palace paused for a moment and then suddenly laughed.

“Hehe…”

Lin Fengting only felt his blood freeze.

He stared at the Master of Samsara Palace as if looking at a lunatic.

He suddenly wondered if he had made the right decision.

It was the lunatic in front of him who took advantage of Tyrant’s desire to change and directly decided the battlefield of the final battle for the Dark World that had been in war for three years.

Most importantly, it was the Samsara Palace that started the wars of the Dark World.

What would such a final battle look like?

Various countries in Eastern Europe would interfere in it secretly. More than a dozen countries would fight in public and even in secret. The superpowers in the Dark World had their own stances. Both the superpowers and countries would form alliances, but the so-called allies would betray them at any time.

It was a considerable interest, which was enough to drive anyone crazy.

Eastern European countries would go crazy.

The superpowers in the Dark World would go crazy.

Tyrant would go crazy.

All ambitious Invincible Realm experts would go crazy.

All of them!

It would be a time of great chaos, and also a final battle of great madness.

Compared to the final battle in Heaven Capital three years ago, it was the real general trend of the Dark World!

Lin Fengting didn’t know what such madness meant.

Did it mean a new era after the end of an era or…

He stared at the Master of Samsara Palace without blinking.

“What are you looking at?”

The Master of Samsara Palace’s expression was hidden in her cloak, but her voice was a bit cold.

“I don’t like you now.”

Lin Fengting smiled.

The Master of Samsara Palace did not speak, but her aura gradually became cold.

Her eyes were fixed on the glacier ahead.

“Be careful.”

Although Lin Fengting didn’t like the Master of Samsara Palace, he still reminded her.

The Master of Samsara Palace did not speak.

She straightened her body completely in an instant.

Snow and ice whistled past.

The black cloak on her fluttered, making some noises.

Lin Fengting sat motionless in situ, extremely quiet.

The Master of Samsara Palace took one step forward.

The entire space was suddenly and forcibly torn apart.

Her figure moved swiftly. She turned into a black line in the bright summer sun and appeared just above the Barentel Glacier in a flash.

The glacier was silent.

The Master of Samsara Palace opened her hands as if embracing the whole world.

A hint of dimly discernible and yet extremely condensed sword intent formed the moment she opened her hands.

The Sword Energy rose high in the air.

The vague and sharp Sword Energy traversed the entire sky, covering the glacier.

The snow on the ground whirled wildly.

The ultimate sword intent was rising.

Eventually, it fell.

Deep in the polar region, the Barentel Glacier, known as the end of the world, shook. And one crack after another spread across the glacier.

The billows on the sea behind the glacier surged.

The earth trembled and the mountains shook.

The sword light diffused to somewhere as far as the eye could see.

The cloak on the body of the Master of Samsara Palace swelled, and her body lit up.

Infinite sword light burst forth thoroughly around her, and the surging Sword Energy fell like crazy.

On the Barentel Glacier, a piece of fast ice covering an area of thousands of meters exploded with a bang.

A sudden roar of anger and authority sounded inside the glacier.

Then a louder roar sounded.

It was a clear and strange gunshot.

A cloud of misty light lit up the glacier encircled by the sword light again.

The light was dim and dreamy. With a tinge of yellow, it spread across the glacier shrouded by the sword intent.

The yellow light smashed the glacier and sword intent on its path.

The murderous weapon Mountain Shatterer!

To smash a mountain with one shot!

It was the middle of the night on the 26th of July in the polar region.

In the polar region, the scorching sun was hanging high in the middle of the night.

Before the middle of the night, a piece of explosive news quickly swept across the entire Dark World, like a hurricane.

Deep in the polar region, the Polar Ground Alliance’s headquarters in the Barentel Glacier was fully exposed.

The Master of Samsara Palace broke into the Polar Ground Alliance’s headquarters alone.

The murderous weapon Mountain Shatterer fired.

Tyrant, the leader of the Polar Ground Alliance, was seriously injured.

The Master of Samsara Palace was seriously injured too.

None of the intelligence mentioned Lin Fengting.

And almost at the same time.

Within the Polar Ground Alliance, several influential families announced their withdrawal from the alliance at the same time.

Snow Country also officially issued a statement indicating that Tyrant, Leader of the Polar Ground Alliance, was a traitor of Snow Country, and Eastern European countries were obliged to help Snow Country kill Tyrant.

Different messages swept across the Dark World.

Everyone knew what these messages meant.

It meant that the Polar Ground Alliance, a most overstaffed superpower in the Dark World with the most massive sphere of influence, which once overlooked Eastern Europe, finally collapsed wholly within a few hours after facing years of plots!

It also meant that the Eastern European countries, including the world’s largest Snow Country, had no dark forces that could be used.

Tyrant was seriously injured.

So was the Master of Samsara Palace.

The murderous weapon Mountain Shatterer.

The murderous weapon Blue Sky Underworld.

The Polar Ground Alliance.

The Samsara Palace.

All benefits were now in Eastern Europe.

Overnight, everyone seemed to have a reason to go to Eastern Europe.

The storm arose in the Dark World and suddenly turned into a terrifying wave.
