Chapter 213: Poetry of the North, the Blazing Sun and the Ultimate Intention

Chu Ming and Isabel sat side by side in the courtyard and chatted until midnight, from their meeting to their time in the Earldom of Kutz. From the relaxed expression of the girl, it can be seen that she enjoyed the chat process.

Late at night, sleepiness gradually came over Isabel, who was tired, closed her eyes and fell asleep on Chu Ming's shoulder.

Chu Ming picked up the girl, asked the priest on duty, and sent her back to the room.

In the room, Polly opened her eyes and cooed at Chu Ming. Above her head, the maple flower elf was holding her feathers and sleeping soundly, and her saliva wet Polly's white feathers.

"Coo..."

"I'm leaving."

Chu Ming gently stroked her feathers with his fingers, "I guess I won't see you when I come back."

"But we will meet in another world."

"Coo?"

Polly looked at Chu Ming with her golden eyes, revealing some doubts in an anthropomorphic way.

Chu Ming waved to it, and finally came to the bedside and looked at Isabel, whose blonde hair was disheveled and whose face was quiet. She was hugging the quilt and breathing lightly.

"Isabel, good night."

He kissed the girl's white forehead, then said goodbye to Pearly and disappeared into the room.

...

A week later, Chu Ming came to the King's Peninsula to say goodbye to Lucas at Niho College, and then went north to the border of the peninsula.

After thinking for a while, he handed the teleportation crystal to the imperial wizard at the border, and then disappeared into the dark forest under the eyes of the wizards and knights.

Chu Ming walked north for a few days, passed through the chaotic beast tide and entered the depths of the forest.

He crossed the mountains and lakes and passed through the forest. Along the way, the trees became thinner and thinner, and the ice and snow fell from the sky. The vision became open, and in front of him was the ice and snow tundra wrapped in endless darkness.

Here you can hear the whistling of wind and snow, and you can't see any living creatures.

Crack... Chu Ming stepped on the glacier, and there were cracks on it.

Chu Ming's face showed a bit of surprise, "It seems that the dark land in the north is a little different from other places."

He walked slowly and firmly in the vast snow. There was no moon or stars in the sky. Chu Ming wanted to identify the direction and could only estimate the approximate direction by the relative positions of several teleportation crystals he left in the Empire and King Peninsula.

Every time he walked dozens of kilometers, Chu Ming would stop and draw a rough map based on his memory.

Although he didn't need this map, it could point the way for future pioneers so that they could find their way in the dark.

After walking in the dark for about half a year, some relics and traces of biological activities gradually appeared on the monotonous tundra.

Chu Ming stayed in the ruins for several days. On the day he came out, he suddenly found a huge earth dragon drilling out of the snow.

The earth dragon was covered with rock-like scales, and its momentum was terrifying, reaching the level of epic three stars.

Chu Ming's eyes flickered slightly, he soared into the sky, took the earth dragon into his hands with the dragon vine, and observed it carefully.

"This might... it seems that its blood contains a hint of dragon blood!"

After discovering this, Chu Ming's face became excited.

The dragon blood can be revived, which means that magic power is about to return.

Judging from the current recovery trend, perhaps after a thousand years, the recovery of magic power will reach a certain level, allowing some relatively weak magic races to appear.

After recording this in his notebook, Chu Ming continued to move forward in the desolate darkness for five years.

In fact, he had already set foot on the territory of the Northern Empire, but he never saw anyone. It seemed that he had been swallowed by the tide of darkness. Instead, the dark creatures became more and more numerous. Sometimes he could even see some ruins of the Kingdom of God on the road.

These ruins were extremely tall and fell into the deep mountains, but the mountains that were only a few hundred meters high could not cover the ruins of the Kingdom of God that towered into the clouds and spanned hundreds of kilometers, like a giant wall of the world.

Chu Ming had also wanted to explore it before, but the legendary aura on him was too special. Before he entered the ruins, he caused the roar of thousands of beasts and provoked countless creatures.

Faced with this situation, Chu Ming had no choice but to give up and continue walking towards the territory of the Northern Empire on the other side of the peninsula.

…

After walking for five years, Chu Ming stood on the strait, and across the sea from him was the last territory of the Northern Empire - Linglan Peninsula.

His eyes withdrew from the land and looked into the distance of the Black Sea. In the dark world, thick thunder snakes were surging in the clouds, lightning flashed, and violent storms poured down. The dark waves surged hundreds of meters high, reflecting mottled scales, like a silver dragon surging in the waves.

Below the strait, dark brown waves slammed against the reefs, and some broken wooden boards of ships drifted with the waves, leaving layers of wooden boards, net bags, and canvas on the bright white beach... Walking along the coast, you can also find some wooden boats that are hundreds of meters high and only have broken shells left.

Chu Ming looked up and saw the remaining strips of cloth on the thick masts fluttering in the sea breeze. A feeling of desolation and sadness arose from his heart.

After watching for a while, he picked up a piece of wood on the beach and observed it carefully.

He found that although the wood in his hand had been stripped of the tree body, it still faintly revealed a sense of vitality, as if these ships had been blessed.

"These giant ships should be left over from the Magic Age. They are in such dilapidated condition that they are completely useless."

Chu Ming shook his head and flew west along the beach.

As long as he crosses this strait, he can reach the territory of the empire on the other side of the peninsula. Chu Ming prays in his heart that this ancient empire can resist the darkness and survive.

After Chu Ming left, a long time passed. On the turbulent Black Sea, strong winds and heavy rain were still raging, but there seemed to be something more in this sea area.

Looking between the dark sea and sky, thunder and lightning fell, and a huge snake body appeared vaguely. The white snake scales reflected a metallic luster, like a huge mirror standing across the sea.

The snake's body surged into the clouds, and its tail emerged from the sea and disappeared into the clouds.

Like a giant beast that surrounds the world, the giant snake reaches up to the clouds and down to the abyss of the sea. It is extremely huge, and its head exuding divine light rushes out of the sea. Its golden vertical pupils, as magnificent as the sunset, stare indifferently at the position of the strait.

…

A month later, Chu Ming finally crossed the dangerous strait and came to the other side of the northern continent.

He walked towards the land and gradually entered a forest.

The further we walked inside, the thinner the black mist became.

When Chu Ming walked out of the dark forest, the dark clouds in the sky began to rain lightly.

boom!

The thunder light fell, and a red-hot golden light lit up in the mountains in the distance. The light burned the rainwater and evaporated it like a flame, dispersing the surrounding darkness.

"That seems to be knight power?"

Chu Ming was stunned, his head started to work a little, and he drove his body to float towards the mountains.

…

boom! ! !

The rocks exploded, and the angry howls of the giant beasts came from the mountains. The ground shook wildly, and the giant beasts seemed to be venting their anger on the creatures on the ground.

On the ground, ant-like human knights shot spears at the giant beast. In mid-air, several figures wrapped in red flames continued to collide with the giant beast.

Judging from the current situation, humans have defeated the giant beasts steadily and seem to have the upper hand.

But in fact, the attacks of these human knights can only leave scorched black marks on the giant beasts, but cannot cause substantial damage to the giant beasts. From time to time, the number of knights on the ground will be reduced due to the trampling of the giant beasts.

"Danilo!"

In mid-air, a female knight shouted to the man attacking the giant beast next to her: "Cover me, I want to attack its eyes."

The man nodded silently, his body blazing with red flames. Veins popped out on his forehead, and his muscles swelled, turning into a fireball and crashing into the giant beast.

boom!

The sound of air explosions resounded throughout the canyon, and the giant beast fell backwards with a wail.

"Fire sun!"

The female knight shouted, her eyes lit up with golden light, and the spear in her hand was attached to the flames. She used all her strength to project the spear, and the spear burst out with the pressure of the violent wind and flames. , the woman's long hair was blown by the strong wind.

boom! !

An unstoppable burst of edge carried the red lotus fire down. The moment the giant beast came into contact with the flames, its head instantly cracked from the eye sockets to the brain, and the pieces of flesh and blood floated with the turbulence and flames, turning into ashes and black. carbon.

The spear did not stop after passing through the monster's body, but directly hit the ground. Amidst the cracks and explosions, the ground broke inch by inch, and even the boulders buried under the ground were crushed into powder all over the sky by the impact and strong wind. , the canyon and the behemoth were buried in the mist.

"Huchi...huchi..."

The woman gasped for air, and her body fell weakly into the sky.

Her eyes were focused on the huge black shadow behind the mist that filled the canyon.

"Did you make it?"

All the knights stopped, caught the female knight, and looked behind the mist.

But what was desperate was that the giant beast only remained quiet for a while before standing up from the mist.

Dong... Dong... The giant beast took steps, and every step was like a heavy blow on everyone's heart. Its huge body walked out of the gray mist, and the flesh and blood on its thick neck squirmed, and twisted muscles like muscles grew. Chrysanthemum petals.

"ah!!"

The giant beast screamed, and the sound wave attacked the knights, and everyone had a look of despair on their faces.

They had been besieging this giant beast that was attacking the empire's territory for three days. All the knights present were exhausted, and they were unable to resist such a powerful beast.

“I didn’t expect that the gap between epics and epics could be so big.”

There was a hint of sarcasm on the corner of the female knight's mouth, and she smiled bitterly.

"Lady Anne, let's take you away."

Several other epic knights came over and helped the woman up.

"Roar!"

The giant beast became even more violent. It took up heavy steps and trampled towards the knights.

"Sir, be careful!"

Several knights raised their shields to protect the female knight behind them. Their bodies were ignited with waves of flames that could destroy themselves, and they turned into fireballs and struck the giant beast.

Boom...boom...boom...

A dull crash sounded, and the giant beast stopped in its tracks.

But at this time, it had already arrived in front of the female knight, roared low, opened its teeth and claws in its abyss of chrysanthemum petals, and wanted to swallow the woman into its belly.

"well……"

Annie sighed and propped up her body tremblingly, wanting to give the giant beast a final blow.

Suddenly, a golden light visible to the naked eye escaped from a distance. Under the gaze of the knights, the majestic golden light disappeared. A forbidden and malicious force appeared, spying on the evil of everyone present. Countless huge vines suddenly emerged from the place where the golden light disappeared. It rose up, covering the sky, and instantly enveloped the giant beast into it.

Only a few painful roars and the crunch of bones being crushed were heard from inside. The giant beast was actually chewed alive by this unknown creature as if it were food.

The flesh and blood were stirred, and black blood dripped from the gaps in the giant vines, forming a black pool on the ground.

Anne's eyes shrank and she shouted to the knights: "Run!"

The knights woke up from their stupor. They looked at the giant vine with horrified eyes and kept retreating.

"Everyone, I am human."

A helpless word rang out from inside the giant vine. The giant vine continued to shrink, and the remaining flesh and blood of the giant beast fell to the ground. Chu Ming's figure in a gray robe was revealed.

Chu Ming's words obviously failed to dispel the doubts of the knights. They had never seen such a terrifying human being, who could kill the epic beast in an instant, and in a weird way of devouring flesh and blood.

The knights quickly retreated and ignored Chu Ming.

Chu Ming was silent for a moment. These knights obviously regarded him as a monster. It seemed that the appearance of the giant beast that swallowed alive just now was too exciting.

He secretly changed his mind and decided to act more righteously next time.

"Everyone, stop."

Chu Ming lightly hammered his chest with his right hand, and the majestic golden divine power spread out, and the supreme power came over. The knights were affected by the divine power, their eyes widened, and their bodies stood stiffly.

Anne barely resisted the force, propped up her body, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

Chu Ming smiled slightly and landed from the sky, "I come from the Fengyang Empire, you can call me Narender."

"Fengyang Empire..."

The woman murmured these words repeatedly, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Chu Ming with a look of panic.

"Are you...Legendary?!"

That's right, only the legendary level can have such terrifying power, and can easily kill epic behemoths in an instant, and cross the long dark land from the other side of the continent to the Northern Empire.

Chu Ming nodded slowly and said: "I have no ill intentions towards you, I just want to know the current situation in the Northern Empire...and what is the knight's secret method you just used?"

Annie kept looking at Chu Ming, and after a long time, she said, "Sir, please come back to the territory with us, and I will tell you everything."

Chu Ming asked: "In which direction is the territory and how far is it from here?"

The knights looked at each other, wondering why this strange faraway traveler was asking this.

Faced with this strange question, Anne was just stunned for a moment and replied: "The nearest Dunn's Territory is forty kilometers away from here, in the northwest."

Chu Ming nodded and reminded: "Stand firm."

Just when the knights were still confused, Chu Ming's body suddenly burst into blue flames and rushed towards everyone.

Several vigilant knights still wanted to resist, but after coming into contact with the blue flame, they found that it had no power and seemed to be just a mental protection technique.

Everyone looked up at Chu Ming. The man just waved his hand, and a huge crack opened from the canyon. Starlight flowed inside, and from time to time some strange scenes appeared.

The next second, the night expanded rapidly, wrapping everyone up and quickly escaping to the northwest.

Only a few minutes passed, the surrounding night receded, and the bodies of the knights and those lost in the battle with the giant beast appeared in reality. When everyone came back to their senses, they found that they had appeared in a familiar place.

"Is this Shanjueling?!"

One knight exclaimed, which instantly aroused the memories of other knights. Looking at the familiar scenery under the surrounding mountains, everyone cast a shocked look at Chu Ming.

"I wasn't dreaming."

"Is this the legendary magic?"

Even Anne's eyes were a little surprised. She said respectfully: "Lord Narender, the town in Duncan's territory is just ahead. Please come with us."

…

One day later, inside the Viscount's castle.

After the knights settled down, Anne, who was wearing casual clothes, led several knights to find Chu Ming who was admiring the portrait in the hall.

Anne saluted and said: "Sir Narender, please forgive me for delaying some time."

Chu Ming waved his hand, "Tell me about the situation in the Northern Empire. Maybe I can help you solve some dangers."

When the woman heard this, her eyes lit up and she spoke the words she had prepared.

Half an hour later, Chu Ming listened to the woman's story and roughly understood her identity and the current situation of the empire.

Thousands of years ago, the Northern Empire was invaded by the tide of darkness. At that time, the empire's wizarding power had not yet developed. Only the Dark Blue Knight was the top force. In the war with darkness, the empire retreated step by step and gradually retreated to the peninsula.

If this trend continues, the Northern Empire will inevitably usher in its demise.

But a hundred years ago, a genius knight named Art Acord appeared in the empire. He led all the royal knights and some half-hearted wizards to research new secrets while resisting the darkness. He spent forty-six years and finally developed An epic secret method that can bypass human bloodlines was developed - the Secret Method of the Fierce Sun.

Unlike the Griffin Knight inheritance, the Blazing Sun Secret Method shifted the improvement of the Knight's power from blood power to spirit. They developed a power similar to the secret - the Ultimate Will. The strength of this power depends on the Knight's own blood power and spiritual power, which is a combination of the two.

As long as they have strong spiritual power, the Deep Blue Knight can comprehend the Ultimate Will that can affect reality during practice.

And the strength of the Ultimate Will will be affected by the Knight's will. The stronger the Knight's will to fight, the more tenacious the will, and the more terrifying the strength.

The final level of Art Acord, who developed the Blazing Sun Secret Method, was only one-star epic, but there were rumors in the Empire that he once fought with an epic three-star behemoth for a whole month with his iron will and defeated the behemoth.

Of course, although the upper limit of the Ultimate Will is very high, the lower limit is also very low. As long as the Knight shows a cowardly mentality in battle, his strength will be greatly reduced. Although it will not fall out of the epic level, it will be completely unable to fight against ordinary epic creatures.

"Ultimate... What a domineering secret method." Chu Ming sighed: "Alt Acord, he is indeed a genius."

Being able to go against the tide in the desperate background of the empire's retreat, this person himself is like the Fiery Sun Secret Method, possessing a will as dazzling as the scorching sun.

In this way, Chu Ming also knows why this secret method is called the Fiery Sun Secret Method.
