Chapter 1101: Chapter 1098 Mulagao Ding Chapter 1101: Chapter 1098 Mulagao Ding Passing through the natural node, a new world descended upon Li Si Te’s view, a world shrouded in ice and snow, with thin air and extremely low temperatures.
“Is this the alternate space created by the ancestors of the Moon Slayer, the Ancient Magicians?”
Li Si Te activated his Superior Magic Dragon Dou Qi to resist the extreme cold brought by the surrounding ice and snow. Even with his current physical endurance, he couldn’t withstand it and needed to utilize the Dragon Dou Qi for warmth, showing just how cold it was outside: “Ach, can you handle it?”
“It’s fine, brother. Ach has switched to Ice Elemental Incarnation, so I don’t feel cold at all. It’s just that the air is thin, making breathing slightly difficult.” Ach and her unicorn Charlie both appeared very natural and comfortable.
And his own mount, the Formless Dragon Bard, felt no different.
It’s just that flying was very unstable and seemed very strenuous, finally landing on the thick snow–dragon flight relies on air currents and magic power, both of which were sparse in this environment.
“Woowhaa!”
Though Bard was not afraid of the cold, it didn’t mean it liked it here, constantly complaining.
Patting its neck, Li Si Te gestured for Bard to walk: “Let’s move forward and see what’s unique about this world and what the Ancient Magicians left behind.”
Bard walked.
Charlie still strolled through the air; sometimes it seemed even more mystical than a dragon.
“Brother, this world is very strange. Why does Ach always feel like we’re still in the original world?” Ach tried to cast a spell, then suddenly realized, “That’s right, brother, this world is the same as the original one, Ach can still draw magic power from the Magic Web!”
“What?” Li Si Te was momentarily stunned.
“Perhaps the Ruins Entrance is not an entrance to an alternate space but a normal natural node, meaning brother and Ach, passing through the natural node, arrived somewhere on the Legendary Continent or possibly the Mafa Continent… From the look of the environment here, it seems to be a mountaintop or plateau.”
“Not alternate space, but somewhere on a mountaintop or plateau?”
Li Si Te found it hard to accept this. He had hoped he might gain many treasures from the Land of Ruins, but it turned out there was no Land of Ruins.
But soon he recalled: “No, the reward from the Smoke Mission was indeed a Ruins Entrance. It just didn’t specify it would be an alternate space. The assumption of an alternate space was my own judgment, based on my understanding of natural nodes, deducing this natural node might lead to an alternate space.”
The natural node of Sun Moon Valley, and this one, both have connectivity, so he originally thought one led to the real world, the other to a Different World.
It turned out both led to the real world.
“But, whether or not it leads to the real world, this natural node is a Ruins Entrance, that’s for sure. So this is still an Ancient Ruins site!”
Having clarified the logic, he directly asked: “Ach, can you determine our current location?”
Ach shook her head with trouble: “No, brother. The heavy snow and wind make it impossible to calculate with the sextant, I can’t even distinguish north, south, east, or west.”
“Then never mind, let’s continue to look around and at least figure out where we are, and also see if there are any Ancient Ruins nearby. It’s connected to the natural node of Moon Slayer Sacred Mountain, maybe there will be items left by the Archmages.”
“Right.”
The group of one man, one sea serpent, one dragon, and one unicorn started searching on this vast mountain summit.
The snowstorm along with the dense fog severely reduced visibility, and the thick snow also made it hard to spot any rock formations. Fortunately, Li Si Te’s Superior Magic Dragon Dou Qi was strong; with a few slashes, he could melt large patches of snow and ice, exposing the underlying mountain rocks.
Using this method, they soon discovered new issues in this location.
“Brother, these exposed mountain rocks are quite flat, but from the traces of the rock fractures, they weren’t originally this smooth.” Ach, with her profound knowledge, immediately judged, “Though there are no traces of artificial carving, Ach still concludes that this is a man-made platform.”
“You’re saying that someone shaved the top off this mountain just to create a flat mountaintop platform?”
“Yes, indeed.”
It sounded a bit unbelievable, but soon Ach’s guess was confirmed.
The group had reached the edge of the platform, where the vast snowy land suddenly sloped downward. There were also howling snowstorms, rampant magic power and air currents, comparable to Superior Magic. Even with the physique of the Formless Dragon, merely touching the storm left white marks on the dragon scales.
“Wu yi ya!” Bard decisively backed away, still underage and not wanting to take risks.
“It seems your guess was correct, it is indeed an artificially created platform, a mountain peak has been cut off… The storm outside is too fierce, making it difficult to walk. We’ll explore along the edge of the platform to see how big this platform is.”
The two continued along the edge of the platform.
After a big circle, taking more than an hour, they estimated that the entire platform was about as big as a small town, nearly one hundred square kilometers.
Apart from the platform, everything was enveloped by the storm, making it impossible to walk even a step.
“With such high mountains and such fierce snowstorms, Ach, I already have a vague guess in my heart… Let’s spend some more time clearing all the snow from the platform to see what remnants the Ancient Magician left behind on this platform.”
“Uh-huh.”
Immediately Liszt used Dou Qi, and Ach used magic, continuously clearing the snow on the mountaintop platform. Of course, they weren’t foolish to clear all the snow, but started clearing from the center of the platform. Once they cleared a large area, traces of human intervention finally appeared.
It was a huge chisel imprint, forming mysterious magic patterns.
“It’s part of a Magic Array pattern, but there’s no magic flowing through it anymore; time has rendered it obsolete,” Ach surmised.
“Keep clearing, find out the true face of the Magic Array.”
As more snow was cleared, more and more magic patterns were revealed, each being several meters wide and hundreds of meters long. Some stood alone, others connected over a large area, continuously spreading across the entire mountain top. Finally, near the evening, when darkness completely enveloped the mountaintop.
The Magic Array was fully exposed.
Due to the fog and snowstorm, it was impossible to probe the entire Magic Array, but that didn’t stop Ach from slowly plotting the Magic Array onto paper.
As night fell completely and the snowstorm continued to howl.
They lit up the Hand Magic Tube.
Liszt and Ach together examined the Magic Array, a massive disc-shaped array with varying patterns in each circle and various mysterious magic symbols. It looked like a giant compass, somewhat crude and not very refined.
“Ach, can you understand it?”
“Uh-huh, I can understand parts of it. Brother, look, this symbol means ‘space,’ and this symbol means ‘time.’ These two symbols, positioned centrally in the Magic Array, indicate that this Magic Array possesses the properties of space-time; brother, look here, these patterns are similar to the magical construction of natural nodes.”
With an idea striking his mind, Liszt said, “It seems this Magic Array is a space-time portal, no, should I say a Magic Space-Time Teleportation Array?”
“That’s possible, but we need to clarify the remaining symbols and patterns and retest it with infused magic power,” Ach replied with precision.
Liszt suddenly had an inspiration: “Ach, I’ve had a vague guess before, and now, this guess is almost completely confirmed.”
“What’s the guess?” Ach asked curiously.
“Mount Mulagao Ding!”
