Chapter 503 The Song of Ice and Fire (II)

“Fallen thing” is not a good signal and it has always been a cliche in numerous novels and movies. If something is related to some words like “temple” and “altar”, there will definitely be some suppressed dark creatures.

Lin Luoran thinks of the raging snowstorm which is really terrifying. It really makes her feel uncomfortable. It’s a pity that her ocean of consciousness is unstable now because of the matter of developing the Taoist root. She now can’t cast arts of nature casually and she is not so confident anymore.

Liao has the power to travel through “worlds” and it turns out that he had been pestering cyan little fox. Cyan little fox couldn’t stand him and just agreed his plan. Lin Luoran was still busy dealing with the moonstar and the “Miaoyin Spell Conference” when the man and the fox returned to earth and the Green Mountains first.

Cyan little fox was once lost in the Green Mountains. It was not that it didn’t want to come out. The truth is that it’s easy to get in the Green Mountains but hard to get out. When it worked very hard to cultivate a second tail to leave the Green Mountains, the earth had long been a scorched place. It couldn’t find the former Lin family so it could only stay in the Kalahari Desert.

Back to the Green Mountains again, cyan little fox had a little personal ability. It didn’t have to run away with its tail between its legs like it did three hundred years ago. Liao encouraged it and they walked all over the Green Mountains. Finally, they climbed to the highest peak and saw a temple.

No one knows why there is a temple in the Green Mountains world. The cyan little fox didn’t dare to come here three hundred years ago. Now it is here but it still couldn’t figure out which god is worshiped here. It’s well-known that the Nine-tailed Foxes Family in the Green Mountains world can cultivate to become heaven foxes. Many of them can preach with monster bodies. Why do they have to worship other gods? They are actually the “gods” of the Green Mountains world.

Liao took the cyan little fox to the peak. It was a temple of god but it was totally abandoned. Everything was normal. This place had been the nest of nine-tailed foxes and it occupied the highest place in the Green Mountains world. Cyan little fox never thought that there would be insidious things in this dilapidated place. As for Liao, he was gregarious. After seeing the temple, he felt so disappointed and he and the fox agreed to leave.

“I don’t know why. We hadn’t stepped out of the broken hall when the mountain suddenly trembled. The temple was totally broken and the altar collapsed immediately, revealing this damn crystal.”

How could there happen to be an earthquake? Lin Luoran stares at the diamond-shaped crystal and she is annoyed, “Uncle Liao, why didn’t you return it after you picked it up?”

Liao stares at her without a word, and Lin Luoran blushes.

The world of cultivation is not a world free from greed. There are many cultivators, including her, would have the same idea as Liao. The things that people get for free are all called “lucky chance”. When Liao picked it up, he would never expect this thing to be so troublesome.

Seeing that Lin Luoran doesn’t blame him, Liao continues, “The cyan little fox realized something abnormal. It asked me to return the damn crystal.”

Of course, it was too late to return. Lin Luoran sighs.

Liao picked up the crystal, and cyan little fox seemed to remember something. It asked him to return the crystal quickly. Liao didn’t have the time to do it yet when a cloud of white light burst out from the broken altar.

“The cold air is permeating. The little fox was swept away in the blink of an eye. I wanted to reach out to get it, but I almost froze my fingers. It’s lucky that I reacted quickly and threw a treasure to protect it! ”

Liao talks about this part proudly and he doesen’t talk about the rest story of running away awkwardly. Lin Luoran knows it and doesn’t push him. She only asks him what treasure he threw in.

“It’s a collar.” Liao is very proud. It is not an ordinary collar. He woke up from the broken world of immortals and tried very hard to get it from a pile of rubbish. After years of experiment, he realizes it does have some magical effects.

Collar? What kind of collar? Lin Luoran feels so creepy when she hears it. She thinks something is wrong and suddenly remembers a collar she found at Ethereal Palace. She fumbles and gets it to Liao.

Liao praises, “This thing is not as good as mine. My treasure can trap mythical monsters like unicorns, dragons, and phoenixes. It’s very amazing.”

“So, cyan little fox was suddenly caught and you threw an animal trap on it?”

Liao nods, “It is totally worth it. Without the owner, ordinary people can’t get close to cyan little fox. Therefore, it can be considered as a protector.”

Lin Luoran is speechless. As the saying goes, the skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. An animal trap from the immortal world must still be very magical. Liao was absurd but he still did it for the cyan little fox… Even it is this case, when Lin Luoran thinks of cyan little fox being trapped by the collar, she thinks it might want to die rather than being protected in this way.

That is a proud fox!

“After that, you took this crystal and hid it by the lake. That is the reason why the outside world is covered with ice and snow.”

The blizzard chases to the ice lake and then suddenly stops. It is not because the lake water is strangey, but because it is afraid of the crystal in Liao’s hand on the side of the lake. But seeing that the thickness of the ice layer of the lake, it is just a matter of time that “it” chases over and turns the paradise here into a frozen world.

Although crystal is a thing that restrains ice and snow, everything in the world follows the rule of one side gaining while the other side losing. Fire can suppress water, and water can also extinguish fire. When the force of ice and snow reaches a certain level, the crystal cannot control the situation no matter how powerful it is… The important thing now is that the cyan little fox is still in the hands of the unknown being.

Lin Luoran clears her thoughts, and then turns to ask Baojia, “How did you get here? Did you see the Acacia tree monster?”

Baojia shakes her head, “I woke up in the midst of the mountains, and then I fought with those monsters for several rounds. Later on, I met Uncle Liao.”

Lin Luoran smiles bitterly, “Uncle Liao, what did you do to make monsters, heaven, and people all become angry?”

Liao changes his previous wretched appearance. He sits straight and takes out a lot of things from his arms. There are some things similar to the teeth from a certain monster, spirit herbs, and ore. No one can know how many things are gathered here. Lin Luoran and Baojia are both dumbfounded.

“…you couldn’t steal them!”

It must be so. No wonder angry monsters all besieged him. For the first time, Lin Luoran thinks she is siding with the bully.

Baojia and Liao have spent some time together. She thinks of something, “You stole these things to irritate those monsters. Isn’t it because you want to lead them to save cyan little fox?”

Liao’s idea is revealed and he laughs twice.

Lin Luoran feels a little guilty for blaming Liao by mistake. After thinking about it, she shakes her head, “The ice and snow are so powerful. These monsters are safe and sound now but I’m afraid it’s just because you are holding the crystal and hiding on the side of the lake. Relying on them to deal with the unknown being is no chance of winning.”

The solution is very simple. They have to return the crystal and place it on the altar of the temple—provided that the crystal can still restrain the powerful ice and snow which has become extremely powerful.

The question is, who can put the crystal back?

Lin Luoran thinks of her palpitations when she approaches the top of the ice peak. She suddenly shivers out of no reasons.

…

Facts have proved that Liao’s plan of trying to provoke angry monsters to go to the temple is not very successful. If Lin Luoran didn’t show up timely, he would be killed by monsters, and Baojia may also get involved in it.

Compared with conspiracy, Lin Luoran prefers fighting fair and square.

She takes Liao back to the previous battlefield and displays the things Liao stole before. Monsters come here one after another. No one knows what Lin Luoran is trying to do.

Lin Luoran returns the things without instigating or adding the trimmings. Of course, she will not tell them that everything is fine now.

She just tells these monsters of the crisis faced by the Green Mountains world at this moment. They can choose to stand with her to fight. They can also choose to wait cowardly for the ice and snow to suppress the power of the crystal and then die eventually. These monsters should understand the priority.

“Despicable human race, how can we know whether you are lying or not?” A lark is chirping. Liao stole its eggs, which is really vicious. No wonder it is so wary.

“Besides, outside the lake, it is just the subsidiary of the Green Mountains. The Green Mountains is evergreen in all seasons. What kind of snow and ice can spread here?”

These monsters are isolated. Human race does not exist in the Green Mountains and monsters here are very simple. The first human they know is Liao and he left them a bad impression. Hearing the words of the lark, the monsters all look at Lin Luoran suspiciously.

Lin Luoran does not refute. She just puts the crystal back to space in public.

Monsters are standing very close to the light gate of the ice lake. Without the crystal, everyone shrinks their necks because of the cold air from the shimmering and twisted wall.

A lot of moss grows on the moist ground, and the vibrant moss has been covered with a layer of hoarfrost in just a few minutes.

The air of ice and snow ignores the barriers of the lake, making people feel cold from the bottom of their hearts.

They finally understand what Lin Luoran said is true. The Green Mountains are facing the choice of life and death. If fire doesn’t suppress the white snow, the evergreen Green Mountains in all seasons will turn into a deserted snow world.

This is a battle song of ice and fire. All monsters have heard it in their mind.

Monsters look at each other. The place is silent for a moment.
