Chapter 1258 Arriving at the Secret Realm of Kadath!

The Shatak bird flies very fast.

From the towering gray peaks to the endless black foothills, and then to the desolate and barren white plains.

This series of scenes greatly touched Qin Zhibo's nerves.

He didn't expect that the journey to Lengyuan would be so long. If it was at the speed during the day, it would take at least a month.

On the white plain below, you can see faint fires far apart, as if there are traces of human activities.

But Qin Zhibo believes that they must not be normal humans.

It is very likely that they are the same kind of slant-eyed merchants, let's call them "Lengyuan people".

For some reason, these Lengyuan people successfully tamed the Shatak birds, so that they can survive in this high-altitude environment of ice and snow.

"Uncle, what should we do next?"

Kuroba Kaito also saw the fire below at this time, guessing that these Shatak birds will land soon.

If they land here, they may face something several times more dangerous than before.

So, he plans to discuss countermeasures while there is still time.

However, Qin Zhibo tightly closed his lips and shook his head slightly.

This made Hei Yu Kaidou frown, and he was very puzzled.

Fortunately, the Shatak bird did not land on this plain, but flew quickly from low altitude and came to the gray granite hills at the end of the plain.

On the spacious platform at the top of the hill, there stood a short, fat, windowless building built of strange stones.

The building was surrounded by a circle of huge natural monoliths, which looked a bit like Stonehenge.

Qin Zhibo speculated that the owner of the cold plains should live here, and it was also the stone monastery rumored by the miners of Inganok.

As soon as the Shatak bird arrived near the hill, it flapped its huge wings and prepared to land.

As the altitude slowly decreased, Qin Zhibo and Hei Yu Kaidou saw two servants standing at the door of the stone monastery.

In the ice and snow, the strong servants were bare-armed, revealing the dark skin underneath.

And in the arched stone door held by the two servants, an indescribable shadow could be vaguely seen slowly creeping.

Qin Zhibo glanced at the sky above the north. The hazy light like fog was gradually dispelling the phosphorescence emitted from the clouds.

On the one hand, this meant that the cold and silent night was about to pass and the day was about to come.

On the other hand, it meant that the world shrouded in fog was now in front of him.

That was the white world he saw in his dream, and it was also the place called "Kadas" by the world.

Now!

Qin Zhibo's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he drew out the Oath Keeper Sword in his hand and stabbed it towards the Shatak bird under his crotch.

The extremely sharp sword tip only felt a little resistance when piercing the scales, and the rest of the sword body easily sank into the flesh.

Feeling the severe pain, the hateful giant bird's wings suddenly lost their rhythm and began to struggle wildly in the sky.

But Qin Zhibo had expected this to happen, and his hands had already grasped the hilt in advance, and he shouted to Kuroba Kaito behind him.

"Catch me!"

Kuroba Kaito, who was sitting in the back, didn't react to what happened, but when the bird's back began to shake, he subconsciously hugged Qin Zhibo's waist.

The giant bird made an unpleasant sound like scratching glass, which soon attracted other Shatak birds and Lengyuan people in the air.

But now they were in the sky, and they couldn't do anything else except screaming and cursing.

Qin Zhibo quickly took out the purple talisman that had been prepared before from his arms and pressed it on the back of the Shatak bird.

So far, all the conditions for the immortal world step spirit ascension have been met.

Purple talisman paper, talismans carved with the blood of spiritual creatures, spiritual creature sacrifices, and within the range of Lengyuan.

Qin Zhibo chose to board the Shatak bird because he saw that these giant birds might take him and Kuroba Kaito to Lengyuan.

As long as he arrived at Lengyuan, he could immediately turn against him and use the Shatak bird as a sacrifice.

This is a risky move.

But fortunately, the bet was right.

As all the conditions were met, the scene in front of the spell twisted in a spiral shape, like a space vortex.

This space vortex was the Gate of Kadath!

At this moment, although the door had been opened, the situation became critical.

The height of the gradually losing vitality Shantak bird began to slowly decrease, and it was about to intersect with the space vortex suspended in the air.

Once they fell to the ground with the Shantak bird, they would lose the opportunity to go to the secret Kadath forever!

At this critical moment, Qin Zhibo stepped on the bird's back and jumped towards the space vortex.

"Jump!"

Qin Zhibo shouted loudly, and Kuroba Kaito behind him immediately understood Qin Zhibo's idea.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he misses it, he will never see his father again!

The two of them broke away from the support of the bird's back one after another, and only relied on a moment of acceleration to fight against the gravity under their feet.

Their bodies were suspended in the air for only 1 second, and Qin Zhibo, who jumped from the bird's back first, was the first to touch the center of the space vortex.

Instantly, the distorted scene in the space vortex was like a flash of lightning.

The next moment, Qin Zhibo's body disappeared.

And Kuroba Kaito's fingers touched the bottom of the space vortex, near the edge, because he jumped a little late.

Similarly, after a flash of lightning, his body suddenly disappeared in midair.

Only the injured Shantak bird was left, dragging its shaky body and falling heavily to the ground.

The other Lengyuan people witnessed everything that happened in front of them, but they didn't know what was going on.

They could only ride the Shantak bird and circle around the place where Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito disappeared.

"What's going on?"

"Where did they go!"

"Damn and cunning guys! Find them!"

The Lengyuan people looked around in frustration, but they couldn't find any trace of the two.

At this moment, a rumbling sound came from the monastery.

Hearing this sound, all the Lengyuan people suddenly stopped moving, and the Shantak bird seemed to be waiting for orders, floating quietly in the air.

Until a series of filthy roars came from the dark arched stone door, the sound was like a hateful horn, piercing through the cold and silence, and echoing throughout the night sky.

After a moment, these Lengyuan people knew where Qin Zhibo and the others were going.

They had already gone to the secret realm of Kadath through the space tunnel.

Although the space tunnel was still in the air, they could not go there.

Because the secret realm of Kadath was created by the great Fan God to ensure that the weak dream gods could always be under the protection of Fan God.

No creature in the entire fantasy dreamland could disturb the peace of the gods, except Fan God himself.

And now, the great Fan God will go there in person.

…

On a huge pale floor, a man in a black robe moved his fingers slightly.

First the fingers, then the palm, arm, left foot, right foot…

Finally, he regained consciousness.

He slowly sat up from the floor and looked around confusedly.

This is…

The pale floor, pale stone walls, pale dome, wishing everything was pale.

Qin Zhibo squinted his eyes slightly, and his brain couldn't help but recall what happened just now.

I jumped from the back of the Shatak bird, and my fingers touched the space vortex in the air, which is the Gate of Kadath.

Then, with countless purple electric lights flashing in front of my eyes, I lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I appeared here.

Could this be the secret Kadath?

Realizing his current situation, Qin Zhibo quickly got up from the ground and looked for Kuroba Kaito around.

However, no matter how he looked, he was the only one in this empty pale room.

Could it be that Kuroba Kaito didn't jump over?

This bad idea suddenly popped up in Qin Zhibo's mind, but he quickly dispelled it.

The moment he touched the space tunnel, he clearly felt that Kuroba Kaito was behind him and could completely touch the space tunnel.

Qin Zhibo thought about it and thought of a possibility.

The teleportation location of this Kadath Gate is likely to be random, and different people will be teleported to any location within the secret Kadath.

The advantage of this is that if those cold people chase after them, they will also be teleported to different locations in batches.

The downside is that I am separated from Kuroba Kaito.

The most sensible way now is to exit from here first, return to the real world and discuss the respective positions with Kuroba Kaito.

However, the secret realm Kadath is not other places in the fantasy dreamland after all. This space is the city where the gods of the dreamland live, and it must have some special properties.

If you exit at this time, it will be troublesome if the progress cannot be saved.

Just like the settings of many games, if you fail to challenge in the boss room, the character will start again outside the boss room.

If it is put in the game, this setting is understandable.

But I have spent a lot of effort to enter this boss room, and I don’t want to start again without doing anything.

At least find out the situation here first...

Having made up his mind, Qin Zhibo looked at the stone arch not far away.

There is bright light outside the stone arch, which is obviously natural light from the outside world.

The moment Qin Zhibo passed through the door, he saw the vast world outside.

What appeared in front of him was the pale onyx city in his dream.

This onyx city is built on the mountain, like a series of huge steps leading up, dotted with countless pale and shining lighthouses, battlements and terraces full of miracles and solemnity.

At the top of these scenes is Kadath, the highest point of the entire Dreamland.

There stands a magnificent onyx castle.

Even if you look at it from afar, it is a castle that absolutely exceeds the imagination of mortals.

It emits a shining colorful halo like a god, even the stars in the sky that are almost integrated with the entire peak are somewhat eclipsed by it.

It seems that every arc and every constellation in the sky of the Dreamland is a pattern reflected from the miraculous castle.

Qin Zhibo stood beside the agate railing, looking at it with obsessed eyes, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

Even though he had seen it once in a dream before, when he saw this scene with his own eyes, his heart was still extremely shocked.

He guessed that the magnificent castle on the top of the mountain, unknown to the world, should be the home of the gods of dreams.

It was also the end point of this exploration journey.

Although I am now in the secret realm of Kadath, there is no completion prompt for the main quest, which means that I must reach there to complete it completely.

Kuroba Kaito, who is somewhere in Kadath, should also set his final destination there.

And my current location is the edge of the entire Kadath, and it is also the lowest step of the onyx city built in a ladder.

It will take at least half a day to reach the top.

This is the case without getting lost or taking a detour.

After all, this city is too big, and the criss-crossing pure white design is dazzling at first glance. It is simply a real-life version of "Monument Valley".

My luck is really bad...

Qin Zhibo shook his head, but soon accepted the setting that he had bad luck.

It seems that he can only climb up step by step.

...

On the other side, Kuroba Kaito woke up from a coma.

When he looked around, he soon found a good news and a bad news.

Good news, he arrived in Kadath.

The pale onyx everywhere here is different from anything he has seen before.

Such magnificence can only be explained by the place where gods live.

The bad news is that the place he randomly arrived at is a dungeon.

This is a cold dungeon, where he is trapped by fences and doors made of ebony.

In his limited vision, he can see the narrow corridor outside the door and the stairs leading up at the end of the corridor.

There seems to be a world full of light above the stairs, but there is no way to know what it is.

How can I be so unlucky!

With his IQ, he has already understood the random teleportation mechanism of the Gate of Kadath.

It’s just that the location of this teleportation is unlucky, which makes him complain in his heart.

But fortunately, his other identity is a phantom thief!

Kuroba Kaito touched his body. In addition to the ancient knife left by Kuroba Daoyi, he also had a small ear pick.

Due to the immature manufacturing technology, the ear pick in the dreamland is very rough, infinitely close to a wire with a blunt end.

This thing is not very convenient for picking ears at ordinary times, but it comes in handy at this moment.

Kuroba Kaito put the thin end into the keyhole and just poked it a few times, and the locks of the cells opened.

After regaining his freedom, he put away the ear pick and searched the cells one by one after confirming that there were no guards in this place.

In his imagination, if his father Kuroba Toichi was still alive, he might be imprisoned here.

But soon, this imagination fell through.

There were only a few cells here, and only he was imprisoned.

The doors of other cells didn't even have a lock, and it looked like they had been abandoned for a long time.

This meant that he didn't come here randomly, but was brought here and locked up by someone.

Who could it be?

Thanks to Shitouhaok for the reward!
