Chapter 1313: Eye of the Storm
Looking at the huge hole filled with wind and thunder, the Wolf King’s expression showed that he was racking his brain… No, he was recalling something.
A moment later, his pupils dilated slightly, and the corners of his mouth unwittingly twitched up and down as if he had not expected the answer that appeared in his mind.
“You might not believe me if I tell you this.”
The Wolf King looked sincere as he said to Meng Chao, “We can just jump down.”
Meng Chao’s eyes widened.
His face was filled with the words, “I don’t read much, but don’t lie to me.”.
“It’s true.”
The Wolf King explained, “Although the magical storm that runs through the entire pa.s.sage is fierce, just like all storms, there is an ‘eye of the storm’ in the middle. The center of this magical storm is also a safe pa.s.sage that is calm and peaceful.
“As long as we are careful, Jump High, jump straight up and down, and fall straight down from the center of the giant hole, we will be able to reach the deepest part of the giant hole safely without touching the dust, debris, black gas, and the aftermath of the magic.
“And that is the gate of the temple of the sacred mountain.
“Behind the gate, there are countless secret treasures and the power that can conquer this world, waiting for us to seize them!”
Meng Chao stared at the Wolf King suspiciously for a long time before he finally said, “How do you know? Just now, you swore that you had never been to the peak of the Sacred Mountain!”
This was indeed a question worthy of further investigation.
Ice storm had made it very clear that the memory crystal copy that her father had stolen from her mother when he left without saying goodbye had long been tampered with by her mother.
It only contained the memory images of how to reach the summit of the sacred mountain.
However, it did not contain the key information on how to find the entrance to the sacred mountain temple after reaching the summit of the sacred mountain.
If “Jackal”ka.n.u.s’s information about the sacred mountain temple had all come from ice storm’s father…
There was no reason for him to be so familiar with every blade of gra.s.s and every tree here.
Meng Chao felt that the memory crystal copy should not exist, including the fact that dozens of totem beasts had formed Fusion Beasts.
This was because the memory crystal dungeon stored the last images that the soldiers saw when the Holy Light Army attacked the summit of the sacred mountain three thousand years ago.
These totem beasts, on the other hand, continuously gnawed on the soldiers’bones and absorbed the spiritual energy released by the war machines and Magic Array glyphs over the next three thousand years. Only then did they slowly evolve to their current state.
The soldiers who died three thousand years ago.
How could they possibly know the fatal weakness of the fusion beasts three thousand years later?
Also, the soldiers, mages, and holy light priests three thousand years ago should not have known such information as “How to jump into the giant hole and arrive at the entrance of the Sacred Mountain Temple”.
At that time, the earth-shaking explosion had just happened. The devastating Shockwave swept across the entire battlefield and almost blew the peak of the sacred mountain into pieces.
At that time, the aftermath of the magic that occupied this place was probably a hundred times more intense than today. How could there be the existence of the “Eye of the storm”?
Even if someone fearlessly jumped into the giant hole, they would instantly turn into dust. who could see the “Eye of the storm”that would gradually form after three thousand years?
So, on what basis was the Wolf King so certain?
“Listen, I know that this matter is very difficult to understand, but you don’t need to understand at all. You only need to believe, just like how you believe that I can find the weakness of the fusion beast and find the correct path to the sacred mountain temple. As of now, I have neither lied to you nor taken the wrong path, right?”
The wolf king said, “It’s not that I’m unwilling to explain, but it’s too much effort to explain. Moreover, without real evidence, you won’t believe it at all.
“Unless we seize the Holy Mountain’s inheritance.
“I can promise you that as long as you help me seize the Holy Mountain’s inheritance and solve the crisis in front of me, I’ll definitely spend three days and three nights to tell you the unbelievable things that happened to me.
“At that time, you’ll understand why I’ve never been to the peak of the Holy Mountain before, but I know this place like the back of my hand.
“I believe that at that time, you’ll be very glad that you made the right choice. That is, to follow me to the death and lend me a hand!”
“Ugh…”
Meng Chao felt more and more that the future Doomsday Wolf was an incurable arrogant maniac.
He really wanted to ask, “When did I say that I would ‘follow you to the death’?”
It should have been you who would follow me, a reincarnated person, to the death!
But the Wolf King put on an extremely deep expression that was destined not to be understood as it strode towards the giant hole.
Meng Chao really wanted to stop it.
But this time, the Wolf King seemed to be very sure that there were no more traps, magic ripples, or spatial gaps ahead.
He kept his gaze straight and strode forward with his head held high. In a short while, he came to a place that was only twenty steps away from the giant hole despite the thunderous roar.
Meng Chao could only follow closely behind the Wolf King.
Since the Wolf King was stepping on a land mine in front of him, he did not have to worry about stepping into a trap.
When he was twenty steps away, the movement of the giant hole was even more astonishing.
It was as if there was a gigantic beast lurking deep underground. The giant hole was its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth that opened to the sky, constantly emitting a battle roar that resounded through the sky.
The battle cry turned into a magical storm that swept around, causing the spiritual magnetic environment to be unprecedentedly complicated.
Even though Meng Chao and the Wolf King both had totem battle armors protecting their bodies, it was as if they were standing naked in a snowstorm. from their hair to their toes, there was nothing on their bodies. It was not a sharp pain that was like being cut by a knife.
Just standing there for ten to twenty seconds, Meng Chao felt that his eyeb.a.l.l.s, the roots of his teeth, and his joints were all sore and swollen. His muscles were spasming non-stop, enduring great pain and pressure.
It was hard to imagine what “Jackal”Ka.n.u.s was thinking. Jumping straight into such a dangerous mouth, was he crazy?
The Wolf King seemed to have really gone crazy.
He took off the mask of the totem armor, allowing the whistling magic shockwaves to bite his eyeb.a.l.l.s and face.
The face that had just recovered was once again torn open with crisscrossing wounds. Blood flowed from his forehead into his eyes, and then from his cheeks into his mouth.
He used this method to raise his five senses to the maximum. He sensed the chaotic psionic ripples and air ripples, and accurately calculated the route to jump straight into the center of the giant hole.
Then, he took two steps back and moved three and a half steps to the left, finding the most perfect starting point.
He mumbled. It was unknown whether he was still calculating the complicated data or praying for the blessing and protection of the ancestral spirit or the power above the ancestral spirit.
In the end, he told Meng Chao seriously, “When you jump down, you must aim at the center of the giant hole. The center of the Magic Storm seems to be the fiercest. Remember, the most dangerous place is the safest place.
“Also, when you fall, you must remember to seal your sight and hearing. If possible, you’d better fall into a semi-unconscious state. Otherwise, your brain might be turned into mush by the Magic Storm, and you might become an idiot or a lunatic!”
He didn’t know whether it was because he had predicted that Meng Chao would accompany him to madness, or because his conviction was so firm that he would press forward with indomitable will. Even if Meng Chao wasn’t willing to jump down with him to die, he would still go alone to explore the most ancient secret of the Tulan civilization, to obtain the most precious inheritance of the ancestors!
After saying this, the Wolf King didn’t give Meng Chao the chance to continue questioning and stopping him.
His face was full of ferocity as he charged out like a burning arrow leaving the bow.
He charged towards the magic storm that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws like an evil dragon.
He charged towards the giant hole that was like the b.l.o.o.d.y mouth of a giant underground beast that had been opened to the limit.
When he was about seven or eight steps away from the edge of the giant hole, he jumped up high.
With the difference of a strand of hair, he narrowly brushed past the side of the magic storm and flew directly above the giant hole.
There, his body shrank, expanded, and bounced, as if he had hit an invisible barrier. He changed his angle in a manner that ignored the laws of physics.
He jumped along the parabola and fell straight down like a weight.
The Wolf King was instantly swallowed by the Magic Storm.
However, the tearing, burning, and explosion that Meng Chao had expected did not come.
The Wolf King was like a clay ox entering the sea, disappearing into the depths of the giant hole.
“I hope this madman… Is Right!”
Countless thoughts appeared in Meng Chao’s mind.
The Wolf King’s actions were a hundred times crazier than when he jumped from thousand blade peak to the Scarlet Mountain Peak.
However, such craziness deeply stimulated the blood that Meng Chao condensed from the fire of Doomsday.
“Although this guy’s plan doesn’t sound reliable no matter how I look at it.
“In my previous life, ‘Jackal’Ka.n.u.s did obtain the inheritance of the Sacred Mountain and was worshipped by all the warriors of Tulan. From then on, he soared into the sky.
“My rebirth changed many things, but the b.u.t.terfly effect isn’t strong enough to change the way the sacred mountain temple is entered.
“In other words, this is indeed the correct way to open the Sacred Mountain Temple?
“I don’t care. I have to tie the future doomsday wolf tightly to my belt. I Can’t let him out of my sight at any time.
“If I don’t go with him to get the first place, am I going to wait for the arrival of Lion King and Tiger King?
“Even if I can explain everything to them and save my life under their claws, I will never be able to maintain my status as an equal. Even if I help Lion King and Tiger King to seize the inheritance of the sacred mountain, or even kill the wolf king, they will never share even a tiny bit of my leftovers!”
Countless thoughts crossed his mind.
As if countless bolts of lightning were stimulating the central nerves, he immediately issued tens of thousands of firm orders to all the muscle fibers, nerve endings, blood, and bone marrow around his body.
Meng Chao’s blood began to boil.
It turned into high-temperature steam at hundreds of degrees and seeped into the veins that bound his blood vessels and nerves.
The mysterious and unpredictable spiritual energy expanded to its limit the moment it was pushed by the blood qi.
It rushed forward and surged into Meng Chao’s legs along the main road around his spine — the dragon veins.
Meng Chao’s legs instantly expanded to the extent that even the totem armor could not cover them.
His feet blasted a deafening explosion toward the ground, almost covering the battle roar that came from the giant hole.. It was as if there were two rocket thrusters under Meng Chao’s feet that pushed his speed to its limit in an instant, following the trajectory that the wolf king had just leaped up, he soared into the sky and jumped into the depths of the giant hole!
