Chapter 168 Arrival and Flame Frost Plane
Seeing him like this, Viola smiled and waved her hand again. "But you don't have to worry too much. Although it's not explained in detail, basically, wizards who can issue quests at the intersection are all trying to conquer the plane and use it as their own wizard tower. The fact that it can be used as a wizard tower by wizards means that the plane we encountered this time is a world with relatively orderly rules."
The so-called relative order of rules refers to a different world where the plane rules are relatively similar to the original plane where wizards live.
Although there are many differences in details, they generally follow certain rules, such as the Elosia plane group.
What is more troublesome is the plane with too special rules. Wizards who are killed in battles due to non-combat casualties basically die in this situation.
For example, the shadow plane that Benjamin had heard of was a rather special plane. Wizards would suffer constant harm even if they just stayed in the shadow plane.
The value of the two planes is not easy to analyze. For individuals like high-level wizards, the value of the regular plane is higher, while for a wizard force, the value of the special plane may be a little higher.
While the two were talking, suddenly, the entire plane shook violently!
There was a crackling sound from the ground beneath my feet, as if it was under some unbearable pressure.
Benjamin then saw that the desolate sky above his head was suddenly torn apart by a huge crack. It was a real crack in the plane barrier!
The other side of the crack showed a strange scene, with all kinds of strange substances surging in it, filled with completely unfamiliar elemental fluctuations.
"We've arrived!" Viola's voice became serious.
Seeing this, the other wizards also entered combat mode. Benjamin could clearly feel that in just a moment, the atmosphere of all the wizards in the entire plane became different.
The destination has been reached!
…
…
In the infinitely vast chaotic void, there is a brilliant and unique plane, which is called the "Frost Plane" by the creatures on it.
This world has been endowed with extremely unique landforms and ecology since its birth.
The entire plane is split in two by permanent projections from two completely different elemental planes, presenting two completely different extreme scenes.
Half of the plane is bathed in the eternal bright light projected by the Elemental Plane of Fire.
It is like having permanent daylight here. The scorching light evaporates all moisture, and the air is filled with the smell of sulfur and scorching heat.
The barren land is covered with red, hot sand and rugged, charred rocks. Active volcanoes belching thick smoke rise and fall one after another, like abscesses surging on the earth, which may spew out devastating lava at any time.
The temperature here is extremely high and can easily melt steel.
This part of the area was named "Yan Yang Realm" by the local creatures.
In sharp contrast to the Flaming Sun Realm is the other half of the plane, which has been forever immersed in the endless dim light projected by the water element plane for years.
This place is in eternal darkness, with only ice and snow and biting cold wind.
The heavy snow fell continuously, dyeing the sky and the earth pure white, and the biting cold wind howled and froze all living things.
There was no light except for the occasional strange plant that emitted a faint fluorescence in the cracks.
This place is called the "Frost Dark Realm".
And like a scar, lying between the two extreme worlds is a huge and ancient mountain range.
This mountain range is not made up of ordinary rocks, but crystals and veins formed by the violent collision and fusion of two elemental energies, filled with a violent and chaotic energy field.
Only a very small number of specially evolved creatures dare to set foot in it.
This mountain range is the natural dividing line between the Flaming Sun Realm and the Frost Dark Realm, and also a buffer zone between the two extreme civilizations.
On such a unique plane, naturally, two completely different intelligent creatures were born.
The ruler of the Yanyang Realm is an extremely huge lava giant.
Their bodies are composed of flowing lava cores and solid volcanic rocks. Their skin is the same red color as lava, their body surface emits astonishing heat all year round, and their eyes are like burning volcanoes.
They are extremely strong, able to move hundreds of tons of rock with ease, and are naturally immune to fire and high temperatures.
Their civilization was built around volcanoes, feeding on lava and drawing power from fire.
The ruling creature of the Frost Dark Realm is a snow monster-like creature covered with long, white hair like frost and snow. It looks like the lower body of a horse and the upper body of a bear.
They are strong, their hooves leave no footprints on the snow, their dog ears are sharp, and their bear arms are full of explosive power.
They are naturally adapted to extreme cold, can absorb the power of ice elements, and can even devour darkness.
Their civilization is built deep within the glaciers, and they live in huge ice caves or castles carved from ice and snow. They feed on frozen creatures and use ice as their power.
Lava giants and snow monsters, two completely different yet equally powerful creatures, have existed in the Flame Frost Plane for countless years.
They couldn't stand each other, and from the very beginning, they began fighting for world domination.
The brutal war lasted for countless years near the Border Mountains, with blood and fire, ice and snow and wailing interweaving to become the main theme of the Flame Frost Plane.
However, despite the constant conflicts, neither side has ever been able to truly defeat the opponent.
The reason is simple - neither side can adapt to the other's environment.
Once the lava giant leaves the scorching environment of the Flame Sun Realm, its body will gradually cool down and its movements will become slow.
If the snow monster enters the Yanyang Realm, it will be injured by the extreme high temperature and its vitality will quickly fade away.
This meant that no matter how brutal their war was, it was always confined to the border mountains and they were unable to strike deeply into the other side's core territory.
This deadlock has continued to this day.
At this moment, in the core area of the Yanyang Realm, located on top of a giant active volcano that was ten thousand feet high, in the palace surrounded by endless lava, a huge bubbling sound was heard.
The scorching hot steam filled the temple, forming distorted phantoms.
The lava pool at the core of the palace is the private place of the lava giant king. The temperature of the lava is as high as thousands of degrees, enough to melt metal in an instant.
A lava giant, more than ten meters tall, was soaking in it comfortably, treating the entire lava pool as the most comfortable hot spring.
The hot lava flowed over him, nourishing his body and making a pleasant sizzling sound.
He closed his eyes tightly, enjoying the ultimate comfort and power.
He is the king of the Yanyang Realm, the powerful sixth-level creature Kalamos, who commands an army of tens of millions of lava giants.
Suddenly, the sound of anxious and hurried footsteps broke the silence.
A lava giant serving as a guard rumbled into the private palace, his body emitting a heat wave that was even more anxious than usual.
"Your Majesty! The world is changing!" The giant guard roared with uncontrollable fear.
Kalamos slowly opened his eyes, glaring furiously at the guards. His voice was like the rumble of a volcano before erupting: "What's the matter? Why's all this noise?"
"Your Majesty! The sky... the sky is torn apart!" The giant guard pointed tremblingly at the top of the palace. "A huge, pitch-black crack! We observed... observed that in the center of the crack, there is a yellow rock that looks like a circle!"
Because of the difference in distance, the guard giant was of course unable to accurately judge the size of the ship's plane, and subconsciously mistook the plane projection for a rock.
To him, this scene was like a huge dark eye suddenly appeared in the sky, and the yellow rock was the pupil of the eye, staring at their world!
"What the hell is this?!"
Upon hearing this, King Kalamos showed an angry look on his face.
He stood up suddenly, and lava poured down from his body, splashing onto the ground with a sharp hissing sound, and instantly covered the floor of the palace.
Unable to bear listening to his guard's incoherent words, the lava giant Kalamos decided to find out the truth himself.
He raised his hand and blasted open the ceiling of the palace. As countless rubble and lava fell like raindrops, the huge figure of King Karamos shot straight up into the sky, directly exposed under the scorching sky of the Yanyang Realm.
His huge lava eyes were fixed on the dark "eye" in the sky that the guards had mentioned.
The space rift was indeed so huge that it almost spanned half of the sky, but the "ship" plane floating in the center of the rift seemed a little smaller.
It blocked out the local scorching light and cast a shadow under the earth.
King Kalamos was horrified to find that the huge crack, together with the "eyeball"-like "rock" in the center, was even larger than the blazing sun that always hung high in the sky in their plane!
Such a strange phenomenon has never happened in tens of thousands of years!
An unprecedented sense of crisis surged in King Karamos' heart.
"Prophet! Come to see me now!" He let out a roar that resounded throughout the Yanyang Realm.
Not long after, his chief prophet, a skinny lava giant with ancient runes on his skin, arrived tremblingly, escorted by guards.
He placed his lava hand on the king's chest and closed his eyes, sensing the strange phenomena in heaven and earth.
After a moment, the prophet suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with fear.
"King... Your Majesty!" The prophet's voice was old and trembling. "The ancient prophecy... is true. In a few days... enemies will descend from the sky... They will... tear our world apart!"
"Enemy?!" King Karamos was furious.
The first thing that came to his mind was his long-time enemy, the group of "white-haired monsters" in the Frost Dark Realm!
Those cold creatures have been trying every possible way to erode the Yanyang Realm for countless years.
"This must be the work of those damn white-haired monsters! They want to use this trick to raid our world from above!" King Karamos roared.
Lava rolled out and dripped from him with his rage.
Without the slightest hesitation, his massive body shook violently as he issued the most urgent order: "Pass my order! Gather all legions! Prepare for battle! Converge towards the border mountains! We must burn all these white-haired monsters that attempt to attack from the sky to ashes!"
At the same time, on the other side of the Flame Frost Plane, the Frost Dark Realm shrouded in eternal darkness also discovered this earth-shaking change.
Inside a huge glacier deep in the plane, at the core of the magnificent Ice Crystal Palace, in that cold lake carved from ten thousand years of ice, the huge "Snow Monster King" Agron also learned the same information from his guards.
There is no doubt that he had the same reaction as the lava giant Kalamos.
"Call all clan warriors! Assemble the legions!" King Agron roared, his voice echoing across the glacier, triggering a roar like an avalanche. "Prepare for battle! We will bury these stones that dare to invade from the sky forever beneath our ice and snow!"
Thus, without knowing anything, the two old enemies of the Flame Frost Plane - Kalamos, the king of the Lava Giants, and Agron, the king of the Snow Monsters - also mobilized their own huge armies to prepare for the upcoming war.
