It had been three days since he came out of the palace, and in those three days, Tirestin had taken Chenming and Shakiro across almost half of Hestifo before finally stopping near a small town called Hal in the north of the kingdom.

Perhaps it was because the town was north of Hestifol, and because it was winter, and when they arrived, the town was covered in snow and turned into a white and flawless world of ice.

Although the town is not large, it also has a hotel for business travelers, and the three of them stayed in this hotel.

The snowy night was extremely cold, but the temperature in the hotel was extremely warm, and in the dim light, the three of them sat at the table in the hall.

The northern town is close to the ice sea, and the residents are good at fishing, and it is also sold in the hotel, and once in a rare visit, the three of them ordered a pot of fish soup with some side dishes.

After taking a sip of the heart-warming fish soup and exhaling white air, the tired color on Chen Ming's face faded a little, "I have to drink thick soup in winter, and I am very tired." ”

"What do I think of him as more human than I am?"

Tirestin's face was surprised, he didn't pay much attention to things, demons and demons are the same, they don't need to eat every day to maintain their lives, this table of dishes and fish soup are actually ordered by Chenming, if it was him, maybe he would have meditated and rested early.

"There is actually no difference between humans and demons in essence, and besides, before I became a demon, I was an ordinary person. ”

Putting down the porcelain bowl in his hand, Chen Ming smiled and said, "If you only know how to cultivate magic and chase power in this life, then it will be too boring, and those things outside the body are just to ensure that you can enjoy them freely, and if you don't enjoy them when you can enjoy them now, then you are putting the cart before the horse?"

Tirestin was stunned for a long time, then shook his head and smiled, and said, "I still haven't understood Sir's brain circuit. ”

"Haha. ”

Another bowl of fish soup was served for Shaqiluo, and Chen Ming smiled, "Are you sure you don't want a bowl?" ”

The Emperor hesitated slightly, then nodded, reached out to take the spoon, and smiled, "Then I'll try?"

A bowl of fish soup without any energy is not even as delicious as the delicacies in the palace, but it enhances its own deliciousness to the extreme, just as Chen Ming said, Tirestin's face is also a lot more relaxed.

"How?"

Looking at the bowl of fish soup that bottomed out, Chen Ming smiled, "Is it delicious?"

"Well, it's probably the best soup I've ever had. ”

Tirestin smiled and said, "What Mr. said is that when you can enjoy it, you should enjoy it, even if it's only for one day, you can't be bitter about yourself." ”

"Yes, the children can be taught. ”

Chen Ming smiled, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of Shaqiluo's mouth, got up and said, "Okay, let's rest early today, and we will continue to travel tomorrow." ”

Tirestin also got up and smiled at Chenming, "Thank you, sir, for being with you all the way." ”

"I came with my own purpose. ”

Chen Ming shook his head absently and said, "Let's rest early." ”

After returning to their rooms, Shakiro lay down on the bed and fell asleep, while Tatsumei sat at her desk, taking the map she had obtained from Tirestine's hand and studying it carefully.

"According to the coordinates marked on the map, combined with the direction of travel of the magic tower given by Leuketia, it can be seen that our destination is the same. ”

Chen Ming frowned slightly and muttered, "It seems that my speculation is not wrong, but how did they know the location of the place where the demons are sleeping?

The sleeping place of the demon clan has always been the most mysterious place, and in the entire Hestif, only the patriarch is qualified to know this place, and after the fall of Attilla, only Tirestine is the only one who knows it.

But Chen Ming will not question whether Tirestin will betray him, not to mention that there is a soul contract, Chen Ming himself understands Tirestin very thoroughly, with his affection and righteousness, he will never do such a thing.

"If it's a coincidence, it's good, if it's not ......"

Looking at the other map, which was completely different from the direction he started from, but the end point was the same moving coordinates, Chen Ming touched his chin and said, "Black Rabbit, you said that the life of the demon comes from the heart, so if the heart is dug out, can the demon be resurrected?"

"Why would you ask such a stupid question?"

The black rabbit appeared on the table out of thin air, and said disdainfully, "Didn't you see the whole process of Xue Lei's resurrection with your own eyes? And aren't you yourself reborn after death? Normally, as long as the soul is not destroyed, there is a slight possibility of resurrection, but it is only resurrected in another life form, usually an angel or a demon." ”

"I think I know a little bit about how the Tower found its place of sleep......

Chen Ming's heart was awe-inspiring, he had a hunch that this trip might not end so easily, "Uncrowned King...... What should I do?"

......

After a night's rest, Chenming and Tirestin were rejuvenated, the wind and snow outside the hotel had stopped, and the streets were rustling with residents clearing the snow in front of their respective doors.

All three of them got up early, and because they needed to continue their journey, they did not stop in the town long, and after breakfast, the three of them left the hotel and walked out of the town.

The town is not big, and with the speed of three people, they soon came to the outskirts covered with snow.

The pine and cypress trees, which were originally lush and green, were bent by the thick snow, and there were some lives in the distance, tired of their own rush.

Walking into the forest, Chen Ming found that it seemed that because of the vigorous trees, the temperature here was not as cold as the streets of the town, and a trace of surprise filled his heart.

"Through this forest, we reach the northern border of Hestif, the edge of the Snowy Province. ”

Tirestin said as he looked at the map, "The place where the demons sleep is under the ocean at the edge of the province, so after the land, we will have to walk a while to reach it by water. ”

"Hmm. ”

Chenming, who had already memorized the map in his heart, of course knew the specific route after that, and he spoke, "We don't know what form the magic tower will take, so we must arrive as soon as possible. ”

"Sir, rest assured, even if the Magic Tower comes, the Sleeping Place will not put them in it. ”

Tirestin said, "There's an enchantment that only my Majin clan can enter, and no one else, not even the Uncrowned King, can break through it. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Ming and said, "When I get there, I can't open the entrance for Mr., so you can only find a way to enter by yourself." ”

Before Chen Ming could speak, Sha Qiluo beside him said, "There is no enchantment in this world that can stop me, I will take Chen Ming in." ”

Tirestin, who knew something about the girl, did not refute, nodded, and said, "I hope you can succeed." ”

The three of them did not speak again, and continued to sweep out of the forest.

The vast forest, without a trace of human habitation, as Tirestin said, is already the northern edge of the Hestifo territory, although the right to use the sea outside the forest is Hestifo, but the sea is uninhabitable, because the environment there is much harsher than the land.

The forest cover was so large that even at their pace, it took them almost a day and a night to see the outline of the glacier at sea.

The polar scenery is a little monotonous blue and white, but it seems a little sacred, and although it is not without people, it is only a few busy figures of fishermen on icebreakers.

Because of the magic barrier, the fishermen did not notice their arrival, and still did not stop their work.

Walking on the glacier-covered sea, Chen Ming has a feeling of lightness, like sitting on a huge ship, without the peace of mind of being down-to-earth.

"Sir, wait a minute. ”

Finding a relatively hidden place near the iceberg, Tirestin's hand was full of magic, and huge wind blades swept out of his palm, slashing at the ice.

The ice on the surface of the sea was very thick and hard, so in order not to attract attention, Tirestin chose to start from the wall of the iceberg and cut off the huge ice blocks without making the slightest sound, while Chenming and Shaqiro followed behind him, helping him to send the ice out of the cave.

Soon, the ice that connected to the deep sea was reduced to a thin diaphragm, and Tirestin stopped digging, turned around and said, "When the last layer of ice breaks, there will be a lot of seawater to irrigate the hole, and we better place an enchantment on our body to avoid being washed out by the high-pressure sea." ”

"Good. ”

Chen Ming nodded, and in the ripple of magic power, he wrapped himself and the bodies of Shakiro and Tirestine, forming a thick enchantment.

After the barrier was formed, Tirestin nodded, no longer hesitated, and the wind blade in his hand slashed down again.

"Click!"

The sound of the ice breaking sounded, and the walls of the last isolated cave were instantly filled with cracks, and the next moment, the ice collapsed in an instant, and a large amount of seawater poured in, rushing towards the three of them.

"It's coming!"

Chen Ming's eyes condensed slightly, the power of nature should not be underestimated, the place where they were located was about thirty meters under the ice, the pressure of the sea here was extremely huge, if you irrigated from the cave, the impact at close range was enough to compare to a powerful cannonball, although the power was not enough to hurt them, but it could cause them some trouble.

Letting the sea wash over the barrier, Tatsunato found that although the ice was extremely cold, the sea exuded a trace of warmth, which made people extremely comfortable.

When the sea no longer overflowed, the three moved again and actually entered the area of the ocean.

The world under the sea is divided into the shallow sea above 100 meters and the deep sea below 100 meters, and their destination will naturally not be this shallow sea area where ice can still be seen.

"Legend has it that in the early days, this was not the ocean, and the ancestors of our demon clan were the earliest aborigines here. ”

While leading the way ahead, Tirestin said, "Later, due to frequent crustal movements and the displacement of plates between the sea and land, we gradually moved the place where we lived to the current Hestifo, but the ancestral land where we were born was preserved by the strongest of the clan at that time, and it is used as a sleeping place for demons to this day. ”

In the shimmering blue ocean, there are so many exotic fish swimming in schools that they can even see the icebreakers of the icebreakers and the nets used for fishing.

"Probably the closest thing to the word demon is humans. ”

Thinking silently in his heart, Chen Ming said, "With the strength of your clan, you can completely protect your hometown in the disaster, why didn't you do this?"

"We have always lived with ordinary human beings, and even if there is no order, we will not change the original laws of nature for our own selfish desires. ”

"The rejection of human beings is very serious, and we don't want to be called aliens and be criticized by them. ”

"Definitely. ”

Chen Ming nodded sympathetically, he used to be a human being, of course he knew the inferiority of this kind of life, even the color of their skin would reject them, how could they accept a powerful demon?

As the light around them became darker and darker, the pressure they felt gradually increased, due to the ice, the visibility of the seabed was already poor, and their diving speed was relatively fast, it didn't take long for them to fall on the land at the bottom of the sea.

"This is about 1,500 meters above the sea, and our destination is the deepest part of the sea, the Ludian Trench. ”

Although it was already pitch black around them, it didn't prevent them from seeing, the only trouble was that the pressure here was so great that even Chenming's enchantment was a little unbearable.

Putting away the map, Tirestin said, "The next way, it's up to me to release the enchantment, the pressure of the 6,000-kilometer trench is enough to crush the eighth-order enchantment." ”

"Good. ”

Chen Ming didn't refuse, Tirestin didn't exaggerate, the closer you get to the depths of the sea, the more pressure the sea water brings, if it is an ordinary human, even if it is well-equipped, it is impossible to stay here for a long time, let alone the deeper place.

The moment the cyan wind enchantment covered it, Chenming's pressure dropped sharply, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief, scanning the dark environment around him.

The bottom of the sea is not a flat sandy area, on the contrary, like the land, there are huge undulating mountains that surround their prey like hideous beasts.

They quickened their pace and walked deeper into the ocean.

Along the way, they saw huge whales skimming overhead, and even the mysterious king squid, which could move freely under this deep sea.

"No matter how harsh the environment, life always shows the magic of nature in its own way. ”

Looking at these strange beings in amazement, the distance between them and the sea surface is getting farther and farther away.

The area of the Ice Sea is extremely large, because of the too much pressure, they also walk very slowly, and in the vast darkness, only the cyan light emitted by the enchantment has become the only source of light in the underwater world.

Compared to the land mountains covered by trees, the mountains at the bottom of the sea are more jagged and strange rocks, like monsters with teeth and claws, trying to devour the three of them.

After a long time, the muddy ground disappeared and was replaced by extremely hard and uneven rocky ground, flanked by knife-like peaks and huge ridges, turning the area into a huge canyon, and below the canyon was a huge bottomless ravine, which was daunting.

"This should be the destination of our trip, the Ludian Trench. ”

Stopping, Tirestin's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "This is the first time I've been here, and I used to be brought by the Queen Mother to bring the sleeping demons. ”

Chen Ming frowned and said, "But there is nothing here, and there doesn't seem to be any ......."

"Don't worry, sir. ”

Tirestin smiled, "This is indeed the place where the Sleeping Place is, but it needs to be opened in a special way. ”

He took a step forward, and the terrifying magic power rippled, turning into a hurricane and pouring into the ravine, a huge and ancient magic array, forming above the ravine.

"It's ......"

Chen Ming narrowed his eyes, the color of the magic array was scarlet, and its magic fluctuations were countless times greater than Tirestin's, he could be sure that this was definitely a world-class magic.

As the magic power fluctuations on the magic array became more and more intense, the violent shock made Chen Ming almost fall to the ground unsteadily, and the sea water outside the barrier set off a wave of turbulent waves, wantonly slapping the surrounding peaks, and some boulders also rolled down the canyon and fell into the ravine because of this shock.

In front of them, the space was extremely distorted, and vaguely, Chen Ming seemed to see a completely different scenery from the underwater world.

"Space Magic ...... to Other Worlds"

Chen Ming felt that the function of the magic array in front of him should be the same function as the monster in the Temple of Time, and they were all channels connecting to a certain artificial world.

In front of him, Tirestin said, "In order to ensure that the sleeping place is not discovered by others, our ancestors used world-class space magic to cut it off from this world. ”

As he spoke, a huge and twisted vortex appeared in the sky above the magic array, and the outside of the vortex had a layer of terrifying energy that made Chen Ming's heart palpitate, and he was sure that as long as he was close to there, his life and even his soul would be incinerated by that layer of energy.

"The magic of the entrance lasts for three days, and after three days, the entrance closes. ”

Tirestin glanced at Chenming and said, "Sir can't enter the Absolute Realm of the outer layer of the vortex without the certainty that it will be opened, even if I open it again next time, the ending will be the same." ”

After saying that, he saluted Chen Ming, turned around and swept out of the range of the enchantment, plunged headlong into the terrifying energy diaphragm, and stepped into the whirlpool.
