Chapter 280 The Hidden Secret of the Gods
David immediately became alert.
He used his senses to sense the surroundings, but did not detect any specific threats.
Amy and Lena also stopped, holding their weapons and staffs tightly.
"Do you feel it?"
Amy asked softly, she could feel a strange sense of uneasiness in the air.
"Yes, something is calling us."
Lena replied, she tightly grasped the ice sword in her hand, and this energy made her full of vigilance.
David walked forward slowly, and he had a vague intuition in his heart that this abnormal phenomenon might be related to the information they were looking for.
They gradually approached the slightly shaking ice layer, and saw a corner of it revealing a little strange light.
Under that light, an ancient and powerful fighting atmosphere could be seen.
When they finally uncovered the thin ice cover, a shocking picture appeared before their eyes-an ancient battlefield!
Countless human bones, broken weapons and broken armor were buried under a thick layer of ice.
The bones exuded a faint ominous aura, and the surroundings were covered with black and silver inscriptions, which seemed to be part of some forbidden spell or ancient formation.
"This is... a large-scale war with a long history."
David said in a deep voice. He could feel that there was endless sorrow and anger buried here.
These undead souls seemed to still be wandering here. They had never rested and were trapped here in isolation.
"We must be careful. There may be undead guardians or other more powerful beings here." Amy reminded, with a particularly serious expression on her face.
As the three approached, the long-silent human bones seemed to begin to tremble slightly, and a low and resentful whisper sounded, like a complaint from the abyss, which made people shudder.
At this moment, a strong sense of uneasiness came over.
These undead souls did not seem to be willing to be forgotten. They longed for revenge and liberation, but they were trapped in this eternally withered land and could not leave.
"We need to leave here as soon as possible!" Reina said firmly, waving the ice sword in her hand just in case.
At this time, the scattered human bones began to move as if they were summoned. They gradually formed and stood up again as if they were reborn - the undead army on this ancient battlefield has revived!
"Prepare for battle!" David shouted.
He activated the ice element mark in his body, and his whole body radiated a dazzling blue light. At the same time, Amy and Reina also urged the powerful ice power.
As the blue light flashed, the revived undead rushed towards the three people.
David, Amy and Reina quickly took a fighting posture and faced the revived undead army.
The cold air surged in the air, and the undead grinned, revealing broken teeth and scarred faces. They held rusty weapons in their hands, and their breath was full of anger and despair.
"Amy, you fight them in front, I will provide support!"
David quickly commanded, he clearly knew the importance of teamwork.
Amy nodded in response, she took a deep breath, stretched out her palm, and a cold light bloomed from her body.
"Frozen Breath!"
She shouted, and a powerful icy force instantly surged forward, enveloping some of the undead that were rushing in.
The biting frost spread from the ground, freezing the undead into ice sculptures, making a crisp sound like glass breaking.
At the same time, Reina waved the ice sword, and a stream of snow-white light passed through the front like a sharp blade. She rushed towards the approaching undead at a very fast speed.
Her sword was as powerful as a rainbow, and every swing was accompanied by a biting cold wind. The human bones that were close to her broke and collapsed into fragments under the snow-white sword light.
"Keep the formation! Don't let them distract us!" David commanded calmly from the back.
He urged the six-ring sea god bloodline to sense the position of the surrounding enemies, and continuously cast water element spells to support the two witches.
He raised his hands high, and a stream of sea water condensed into a huge vortex. Under his guidance, it rushed towards the densest group of undead and swept them into the vortex.
However, these revived undead were not easily defeated. Although their bodies were decayed, they had extraordinary indomitable will.
After being frozen or caught in the vortex, they seemed unwilling to give up. They soon broke free and rushed towards the three again.
"Together!" David said in a deep voice.
Amy and Lena looked at each other, then nodded in response.
Next, they began to perform more powerful combined techniques - combining the ice power they controlled with the water element to form a new power that exceeded the individual limit.
"Thaw Storm!"
As the three worked together, the crystal-clear and dark blue light instantly gathered into a whirlwind and continued to spread around them.
In the center of the storm, countless small ice cubes floated in the air, shining like stars, and at the same time they were mixed with countless sharp blades and flew out in all directions!
This power directly swallowed all the undead approaching them in front of them. They screamed shrilly, but could not escape everything that was swept away.
Under the interweaving of scorching heat and despair, those once fearless human bones were finally turned into fragments and completely destroyed.
As the aftermath of the battle gradually subsided, the three stood in the cold ancient battlefield.
The surroundings were in a mess, and the broken undead were swept into pieces by the storm. The air was filled with a faint chill and the undispersed resentment of the undead.
David, Amy and Lena all breathed a sigh of relief and began to continue exploring the area.
After passing the bones and broken weapons, they cautiously walked deeper into the ancient battlefield.
As they explore further, they discover a statue standing in the middle of the square.
The statue towers into the sky, carved from hard and shimmering ice, and engraved with complex and ancient runes.
The statue presents the image of a majestic and mysterious large snow beast. Its body is covered with a thick snow-like white luster, and its eyes seem to be shining with wisdom and power.
"What is this?" Amy whispered.
She could feel the statue exuding a strong and heart-warming aura.
David frowned slightly. He felt the power with his heart, but found that it contained not only ice and snow elements, but also something deeper, mysterious and powerful.
"I feel...this is the mark left by some kind of god or ancient creature."
David walked forward slowly. He wanted to take a closer look at the huge snow beast statue. "It seems to have a seal on it. We must be careful."
Reina also followed. She picked up the ice sword and cautiously explored forward.
As she approached, suddenly, there was a low and distant roar, like a roar coming from the abyss of time, making them take a step back involuntarily.
There was a strong sense of uneasiness and coercion in the air.
"This is... the seal has been touched!" Amy exclaimed.
At this moment, the statue suddenly shook, the runes on its surface began to flash, and a huge amount of cold energy was released.
A beam of light shot out from its center, forming a circular aperture in the sky. That was the door to the unknown realm!
The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help but hold their breath. This place may hide secrets and challenges that were preserved countless years ago.
"Should we go in and take a look?" Amy asked, but the hesitation in her eyes was already visible.
But before Amy made a decision, she suddenly felt that the surrounding space was rapidly distorting, as if time and space were being rewoven.
When she regained consciousness again, she found herself in a magnificent, white hall as clear as jade.
The surrounding walls are inlaid with gorgeous and colorful gems, and each gem sparkles with a strange light, illuminating the entire hall like a dream.
In the center of the hall, a huge snow beast was quietly guarding it.
Its whole body exudes a warmth as soft as spring but a powerful force, which is completely different from the previous cold and solemn sculpture.
Amy was close to the snow beast, and she could clearly feel the sacred aura coming from its body.
This is a kind of power that goes beyond the control of conventional life forms - not only the control of elements, but also more profound and incredible information and wisdom.
Amy leaned down and met the eyes of the giant beast in front of her. At this moment, she seemed to be able to hear the voice coming from deep inside its heart.
Just when Amy wanted to sense further, there was a sudden trance in front of her eyes.
Amy's consciousness was pulled away in an instant, she felt dizzy, and the light and shadow around her began to distort, as if she was in endless darkness.
When she woke up again, she found that she was still standing on the ancient battlefield.
Everything around him was as it had been when he first arrived - skeletons, broken weapons and mysterious statues were all clearly visible.
"What's wrong with you?" David asked concerned.
"I...I saw a snow beast, and it lived here alive." Amy tried hard to recall the sacred and warm feeling just now.
"I felt what it was transmitting to me... it was telling me something secret about this place and the disappearance of the gods."
"What did you say?" Reina was shocked, "The gods disappeared?"
Amy nodded slightly, "Yes, this place was once a place where powerful gods lived."
"That snow beast seems to have a close relationship with this god. When they lose their power or are sealed, the land falls into endless cold and despair."
Amy tried to organize her thoughts and convey the information she felt deep in her heart.
"The snow beast warned me that this battlefield is not only a relic of an ancient war, but also a place entangled in a tragic history."
"Those undead are not just for revenge, but because they have fought to protect this god and fulfilled their mission as protectors."
Amy took a deep breath and continued: "The message conveyed by the snow beast mentioned a powerful enemy."
"This enemy imprisoned and sealed the god of snow, causing his power to gradually weaken and eventually disappear."
"This war is not just a battle between gods, but also a fight for power, and may even involve a deeper struggle between gods."
David was silent for a while after hearing this, with thoughts in his eyes.
Why is there a god sealed at the end of the endless sea?
In other words, what exactly are gods? Are they the existences above the legendary Seven Rings?
Also, why is it that only Amy can resonate with this snow beast? Is this because Amy is a witch?
David's mind was racing as he tried to sort out the complex connections in his mind.
The haze of the surrounding ancient battlefield seemed to be getting thicker, and every bone and broken weapon seemed to be mocking their ignorance of the truth.
"Amy." He finally broke the silence, "Can you recall the specific details that the snow beast told you? Maybe we can find some clues and uncover the secrets behind the sealed gods."
Amy nodded, she closed her eyes, and tried to reconnect with the snow beast.
"I remember... it had a great sadness and anger."
"It told me that this was once a place where gods and humans lived in peace, but with the loss of power and faith, many gods were gradually forgotten and forced to sleep."
"So, what exactly is this power?" Lena interrupted, "If this power is related to this war, how do we explain everything we are facing now?"
"Maybe it's because of faith." David thought, "Once human faith and worship of gods disappear, gods will lose their power and be sealed somewhere."
Suddenly, his eyes widened slightly. Today, the world has indeed lost its faith in gods.
And the reason for the blame is not because of the existence of wizards?
But according to the wizard's heritage, aren't wizards born here?
What kind of connection exists between wizards and gods? Is this a wizard world? Or a spirit world?
"But if we can reawaken this snow beast and restore its strength, can we break the curse?" Reina suggested.
David nodded slightly. He could feel the desire to explore unknown secrets in Amy's heart.
Amy nodded vigorously, "I will try my best!"
The three of them formed a circle and focused their attention.
David was responsible for guiding the breath to enhance the power of the surrounding elements, while Reina used the ice sword in her hand to draw a symbolic formation.
In the center of this formation, Amy closed her eyes and opened her mind completely.
With a deep breath, she began to chant the ancient and beautiful spell in a low voice.
The sound spread like a gentle wind, echoing in the empty land.
A breeze gathered from all directions, covering everything around her with a fresh breath.
Suddenly, the statue glowed again, and a bright beam of light shot straight into the sky.
Then, the vague and simple image of the snow beast gradually condensed into shape, and its huge body and white jade-like luster became increasingly clear in the light column.
But what they didn't expect was that after this power appeared, it actually rushed directly into Amy's body and disappeared in an instant.
