Chapter 2708 Stone Spirit

Lin Feng stopped the Azure Flame Frost Tiger and explained, "This is just a projection. I need to see what’s really happening."

Before the Azure Flame Frost Tiger could react, Lin Feng flew into the sky. It was then he discovered that the projection was coming from the eyes of a massive stone statue, casting an image into the air as if in the midst of a battle.

Flying beside the statue, Lin Feng confirmed that it was responsible for the phenomenon. He stepped on the statue’s eyes and used Divine Sense to communicate with it.

Not long after, the projection in the sky vanished, and Lin Feng received a response within his Divine Sense from the statue.

Though surprised that the statue could project images, Lin Feng gathered that it seemed non-aggressive. Looking down at the statue, he asked, "Was it you causing this?"

"Yes," the Stone Spirit replied with a ghostly voice, not expecting to encounter a human here, which was incredibly rare.

"What are you?" Lin Feng asked, sensing the powerful spiritual energy of the statue, one surpassing any from the Alien Race. What was this spirit? It didn’t seem like Demon Beasts.

"I am the Stone Spirit," it answered, recognizing Lin Feng’s strong aura. As a Stone Spirit, its perception and spiritual power were far superior to other beings.

Stone Spirit?

Upon hearing the statue’s explanation, Lin Feng understood. Similar to the Fire Spirit Xiao Huo within him, it was likely an elemental creature evolved into a Demon Beast. He then asked, "How long have you been here?"

"Hundreds of thousands of years, I don’t even know the exact time," the Stone Spirit responded calmly, noting it hadn’t conversed with humans in ages. Neither Demon Beasts nor humans had been seen in these ruins for countless years.

"How did you project images into the sky?" Lin Feng was most curious about this, not understanding how the Stone Spirit recorded it.

The Stone Spirit answered honestly, "I witnessed the war from those years and recorded it. Every night when darkness falls, it automatically projects clips from that time."

"The war from those years?" Lin Feng grew curious, assuming it might be an old battle between humans and the Alien Race, though he’d never heard of such. Only stories of the Alien Race invading the human continent existed. Curious, he asked, "Why has this city turned to ruins? What happened?"

"Everyone died; they all perished," the Stone Spirit sighed, having witnessed the gruesome war firsthand.

"Was it against humans?" Lin Feng asked, but he doubted that humans could annihilate the Alien Race. What could it be? Fear began to creep into Lin Feng’s heart, offering answers he didn’t want to believe.

"No," the Stone Spirit replied. Though countless years had passed, it clearly remembered the appearance of those beings.

"What did they look like?" Lin Feng asked.

"They were completely black, exceedingly tall, simply terrifying..." the Stone Spirit recalled and shared with Lin Feng.

Though Lin Feng didn’t know the race, he was certain it wasn’t human. When did this happen? It was an unsolved mystery. Lin Feng became increasingly curious about the Frost Highland.

He closely observed the Stone Spirit, sensing its tremendous power. If able to take the Stone Spirit with him, it would greatly benefit the nourishment of his Divine Sense. Not wanting the Stone Spirit to continue projecting past wars and unsettling Yalaya City, he said to the Stone Spirit, "Come with me."

The Stone Spirit didn’t expect Lin Feng’s sudden proposal, yet it had been here for countless years and had grown weary. Eager to explore other locations, it replied to Lin Feng, "Alright."

Lin Feng jumped off the Stone Spirit, which began shrinking from its gigantic form to a palm-sized stone carving. Lin Feng extended his hand, and the Stone Spirit landed in his palm.

The Azure Flame Frost Tiger was dumbfounded when the large stone statue transformed into a miniature carving. It flew to Lin Feng’s side, sniffing the carving, and asked, "Is this the cause of it?"

"Yes," Lin Feng nodded and stored the Stone Spirit in the Space Ring, before mounting the Azure Flame Frost Tiger and leaving the ruins.

Lin Feng intended to head straight to the largest city Yamian mentioned, Tevor City. He’s increasingly curious about why the ring leader left the Frost Highland and ultimately died in the Southern Region’s seas. These mysteries were too abundant, and only in Tevor City could he find answers.

"Do you know where Tevor City is?" Lin Feng asked the Azure Flame Frost Tiger.

"I do, but it’s really far," the Azure Flame Frost Tiger replied as it flew. It hadn’t expected Lin Feng’s ultimate destination to be there. If it had known the distance, it would’ve negotiated better terms with Lin Feng.

"Even if it’s far, we have to go. Let’s hurry on our journey." Lin Feng replied, he just wanted to reach Tevor City quickly to find the answers, only there could he uncover King Tevor’s secret.

Throughout the journey, neither the human nor the beast engaged much in conversation. Lin Feng clearly felt that the further north they went, the colder it got, and he felt that they had been flying over an enormous ice field for three months straight without crossing it, indicating how vast this ice field was.

"How much longer until we get there?" Lin Feng asked the Azure Flame Frost Tiger helplessly, having spent some days on the Frost Highland but still not finding the main city, making him somewhat impatient.

"We should be close. The six main cities are just ahead, but Tevor City is the innermost, so it might still take some days." The Azure Flame Frost Tiger pointed the direction with its large paw, answering Lin Feng, it was also eager for Lin Feng to complete the task in the Frost Highland soon and release it early.

Lin Feng looked into the distance and finally saw a few enormous cities far away, but he suddenly sensed a powerful aura very close to them, and he looked down to ask, "Do you feel anything amiss?"

"What do you mean, amiss?" the Azure Flame Frost Tiger asked with confusion, not sensing anything unusual.

"Stop for a moment." Lin Feng called to the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, then extended his Divine Sense and discovered the presence of strong humans and Demon Beasts not far from them. He then said to the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, "Let’s go down and see."

The Azure Flame Frost Tiger heard Lin Feng’s words and descended onto a distant snow mountain. The human and beast watched the situation from afar, only to see a burly elder of the Alien Race standing on the ice field, and opposite him, a gigantic Demon Beast hundreds of feet tall, with an all-white body covered in long fur yet, humanoid in shape, glaring at the Alien Race with blood-red eyes like a Snow Monster.

"There must be some grudge between them," Lin Feng murmured to himself, seeing the ferocious intent in the Demon Beast’s eyes, but the Alien also looked menacing, indicating an impending fierce battle.

"Not necessarily, they might be betting!" the Azure Flame Frost Tiger teased, feeling a bit regretful about betting with Lin Feng now that it had become his mount.

Lin Feng chuckled, then extended his Divine Sense, trying to understand why they were about to fight. He could sense the Demon Beast had reached the Demon Emperor level, and the elder of the Alien Race had light blue eyes, reminding him of what the old Divine Venerable, who once sold books, had said. If the eyes are light blue, their strength equals that of a human Divine Emperor, so this battle was going to be spectacular.

"Awoooo!"

The gigantic Snow Monster Demon Beast said nothing but roared, causing the snow mountains on the ice field to tremble. This roar seemed to shake the earth and sky, and then the snow in a radius of hundreds and thousands of miles converged towards it, instantly forming a snowball dozens of feet high in front of it.

The snowball charged towards the Alien, gouging a more than ten-foot-deep ravine across the ice field. As the snowball rolled, the ice field seemed to undergo an earthquake, and layers of snowflake-like Demon Energy emanated from the gigantic Snow Monster, turning the entire space white.

The elder of the Alien Race didn’t panic at the sight but emitted light blue rays from his eyes, like light beams pointing straight at the gigantic snowball. In an instant, the snowball was pierced with two large holes by these blue beams, exploding and scattering in all directions, the force seemingly crushing the sky, blasting innumerable huge pits onto the ice field, and even snow mountains thousands of miles away were affected.

Lin Feng could tell the Alien elder didn’t want to kill the Demon Beast, so he hadn’t used his full strength, while the Demon Beast intended to kill the elder. But why?

Seeing the snowball destroyed, the gigantic Snow Monster went into a rage, its eyes radiating murderous intent, charging at the Alien elder with its Physical Body, its running sound producing a deafening roar on the vast ice field. It leaped up, raising its massive paws over ten feet, swinging them forcefully towards the Alien elder.

You could see the shadow of the giant paw on the ice approaching, about to press the elder down.

"Why isn’t that old man reacting?" the Azure Flame Frost Tiger curiously asked, seeing the Alien elder standing still, neither dodging nor striking back. If that hit landed, wouldn’t he be crushed? What was happening?

The Alien elder was momentarily shrouded in a faint black mist, but it dissipated in an instant.

Power of Death?

Lin Feng thought to himself, but why did the Power of Death dissipate as soon as it formed? If this continued, the elder would surely die.

Seeing the giant paw approaching, the elder closed his eyes helplessly, resigning himself to death.

"Boom!"

At the critical moment, Lin Feng used his Thousand Miles in One Step, condensing a shield with Seven-Colored Essence Gang in front of the elder. The power emanated from the Seven-Colored Essence Gang instantly blew the gigantic Snow Monster back hundreds of miles, like a white meteor falling.

Lin Feng didn’t want to prolong the conflict or get entangled further with the Snow Monster. The Azure Flame Frost Tiger flew over, and Lin Feng swiftly pulled the elder onto its back, urgently fleeing the area.

On the back of the Azure Flame Frost Tiger, the Alien elder expressed gratitude to Lin Feng, "My name is Tran, from the Tevor Family, thank you for saving my life."

Tevor Family? Tevor City?
